The Principle Which Gives Relish to
Food and Drink.

Much too little has heretofore been
thought by psychologists, and almost
nothing has been written on that
beautiful provision for our happiness
by which every thing that is used as
food or drink ID most agreeable to the
palate, so that the higher our relish
for any given article, the more per-
fectly is it digested. and made TO
supply the wants Of the system we
have therefore,, a natural guide 10
the right kind Of food at the right
time, and, on the other hand. have :
disrelish for articles which, not be-
ing suited to our condition would be
injurious. But little reflection will
show Us that ii this adaplion Of orr
palates TO the peculiar taste or
osmazome Of every distinct article Of
food, we have faithful sentinel, in
viting the admission Of friends and
protecting rs from the approach of
enemies.
Place before child " no has never
tasted of sugar, or butter, or super
fine -four, or any other elements OF
food that have been separated from
their natural connections, and whose
tastes therefore unperverted, milk,
unbolted bread, meats, fruits, or any
other natural food, and he will choose
| Just that article which is best adapt-
ed to his condition at the time, and
| may be trusted to eat ns much as he
pleases.
But the taste is perverted with
food in which the flavor is excessive
as in butter, sugar, fine flour. etc
and it is no guide, but deceptive.
And here we are liable to err
Our natural gustatory pleasures are
not in proportion to the amount o.
osmazome in our food or drink
Natures fiavors are very delicate
and the very choicest relish is thai
produced by very slight traces o
osmazomo. For example, take nut
meg, very slight grating Of which
will flavor large bowl Of porridge
Attempt to increase the relish by in
creasing the quantity of the spice
and You utterly fail, making you
beverage less and less agreeable a
you increase the quantity of nutmeg
till II becomes disgusting, and posi-
lively injurious to the digestive pro
cess; and this is true of all othe
condiments, and, indeed all othe
good things. Delicate favors ar
agreeable and useful in promptin,
digestion but every article which
is capable of promoting health AM
happiness in appropriate quantities
is capable of doing harm in Immature
quantities.-Dr. Belloaos.

Gay Potato bugs are so troubling
Wisconsin farmers, that IL sermon on
their viciousness and worthlessnes-
is inserted in one Of the papers of the
State. The writer censures Noah
for having preserved pair of potato

and thinks it was "a mighty small
piece OF business" 1t thus relates
the result of an effort to utilize the G
insects:

A Practical Joke.

A party of ladies concluded, the
other day, to have picnic, or May
party. They decided that the male
specimens OF humanity should not be
represented. The poor fellows who
were ruled out felt bad about it.
They swore vengeance. 1t was very
ungallant 10 the gentlemen we will
admit. Nevertheless. our duty as
truthir journalists compels us to give
the facts, The ladies' were not to be
daunted by threats "When II We
man wills she will, you may depend
ont" They made all necessary ar.
rangements. A goodly supply u
eatables were procured, and con
veyance engaged. The day selected
for the picnic was beautiful one
The sky was clear. not q cloud was
to be seen The ladies were about
taking their seats ia the vehicle
which was to convey them to The
picnic grounds, when a gentleman,
who had stopped to see them of.
causualy remarked that they had -
lected dangerous place to hold
picnic, as there was band of Indians
encamped near Smiths Ferry on the
Bellvue road. This announcement
shook their courage somewhat; but
one little vixen, who seemed TO fur
nish the courage for the entire party,
said that she would go there alone
if they were afraid to accompany
her, they might remain at home
They said that they were not afraid
to go anywhere. So crack went the
whip and away went the wagon. A
drive Of about one hour brought
them to beautiful picnic ground on
the banks of the Mississippi, near
Smiths Ferry. Theysshad not alight
ed from the wagon, but were debat-
ing the respective merits Of the two
camping grounds situated in the i'm
mediate vicinity, when there rose up,
as if coming out of the ground, a
dozen Indians, paint, feathers, moe
casins, blankets, and all. The Indi-
ans seized the rcins, and by gestures
gave the ladies to understand that
they must leave the wagon and pro-
visions with them The ladies were
very glad to escape with their lives,
and willingly started on foot toward
home. They had not proceeded
more than three quarters of mile
when they were intercepted by q
party Of Their gentlemen friends, to
va II they roiated their grievances
'fhv gentlemer gave vene TO certain

Russian Apples.


EDIToRW EsTERN FARMER:-Among
our most beautiful apples, there are
five of Russian origin. and beng ma,
tives OF as cold country as Russia,
and being hardy andproductivethere,
it seems only reasonable to suppose
that they would stand the cold here,
and on trial they have been found
to be well adapted to all that region
of country lying west of Lake Mich>
igan. They are all vigorous growers
and early bearers. There is fami-
ly likeness among them ALL and they
appear almost like a distinct species
Of apple. There are very few apples
of American origin as hardy as any
of these. Any Of them viii succeed
as far north as the 44th degree OF
north latitude, by giving winter
mulching to protect the roots in ex-
posed situations. ] consider these
apples well worthy the attention OF
cultivators in this section, and il ]
should commence another orchard |
would plant one.half of my ground
with them. New beginners of Or
chards, if they would save them
selves from loss and disappointment
should be very careful what varieties
they set out and shun the itinerant
tree pedlar. Mr.. Downing describes
these apples as follows:

richness of color is heightened by
IN exquisite bloom on the surface o

The HoRsE.-The from of the
horses chest contains his lungs, by
which he breathes. Behind them,
separated only by thin kind Of skin
is the stomach, destined to receive
and digest the food Each of these
organs becomes larger when in use
the lungs occupying more room when
the animal is moving about and breath
ing more quickly. The space they
occupy is then so filled that only one
of them can be disentended at time.
The horse can swell out his lungs,
and breathe hard, trot, or gallop fast
provided his stomach be empty he
can fill it with safety when at rest,
or nearly so, till the food is digested.
But if they are both full, the great
est danger is to be apprehended I; the
horse is sure to be "blown" almost
Immediately. because he has no room
to breathe, and apoplexy may cause
the animal to drop dead in minute.
No horse should be allowed to get an
unlimited supply of food. A proper
quantity should be given and no
more-enough to satisfy his require
ments, and then to allow proper
time to digest it. Many q horse has
been killed from fit brought on by
the corn-bin having been left open at
night thus giving him an opportunity
to gorge himself to death with
tempting food.-London Horse Book.

Fruit Bearing Year.

Wo find the following in u prize
essay by LII. G. Stone, published in
the Mirror and Farmer:
Most apple trees bear only every
other year. The reason of this is
that the resources Of the land and
energies or fruit producing principle
of the tree are so much exhausted
the bearing year, that it requires all
of the next to rest and recuperate.-
By supplying the soil with all the
necessary elements of growth, and
thinning out the fruit well, this habit
may be changed. These trees which
are thin bearers, usually bear some
every year.
1t is desirable to raise apples when
there is a general scarcity and prices
are high. This has happened the odd
year-the year whose date expresses
an odd number. Some people have
believed, and do now, that there are
odd-year bearing apple tress. TAX
ing advantage of this credulity of the
people, such trees were formerly ad.
vertised for sale. There is no such
kind. Trees of the same orchard,
one grated from the other, do not
all bear the same year.
Some fifteen years ago, cold
storm accompanied with snow, the
last of May, blighted the blossoms
and changed the bearing year OF
some tress, And once, in my re-
membrance, a short but severe droutE
in early summer had the same effect
The trees stopped making wood, APP
parently. by July, and, resting SO Ions
in the growing season, the buds, ever
on bearing trees, became large ane
healthy, matured into blossom buds
and the same trees bore again th,
next year.
Taking hint from these opera
tions of nature, we may artificially
bring about the same results. TX
change the bearing year, prune th'
roots some by blowing shorten il
thc growing branches early in sum
mer, On pniI off he blossoms The ever

GREASE ON CARPETs.-There is
nothing that annoys tidy house
keeper SO much as to have her car,
pet spotted with lamp~oil or grease.
and we therefore make known for
their benefit the following recipe for
extracting oil or grease spots from
carpets or clothes: Cover the grease
spot with whiting, and let it remain
until it becomes saturated with the
grease then serape it off, and cover
it with another coat of whiting, and
if this does not remove the grea Sc,
repeat the application, Three coats
OF whiting will, in most cases, remove
the grease, when it should be brush
ed off with clothes brush.-Prdirie
