Save the COrnfOddeP,

We have long been Of the opinion that
there was not that attention paid to the
curing and saving of the cornfodder that
its value demanded. Every good farmer
must know that cattle eat it grcedily
through the winter, and if cut and
steamed it is as good for them as the
best of hay and really more nilk-produc-
ing.
Where is the necessity of allowing it
to remain in shocks until the middle or
end of November =? Corn should not be
cut down until the stalks are dying and
the grain is pretty hard, and then it
should remain no longer in the field than
is absolutely necessary for the drying of
the grain 1t should be husked as early
as possible and the fodder tied up in bun
dies and either carefully stacked near tho
cattle stables or put under shelter in
sheds.
It is well-known, too that horses pre-
fer it to the best hay also that the
blades are especially sought for to feed
racing animals, strengthening their wind
AMI bottom beyond any other food. 1t is
besides wholesome proVender and helps
most benefcially in making the winters
supply of hay hold out till late in the
spring with the addition of chopped roots,
which every farmer, who shrewelly looks
to the main chance, ought to cultivate for
feeding in the early part Of the winter;

There is an observatory on Mount
Vesuvius, the chief business of whose
occupants is to note and measure earth
quakes. This is done by the aid of a
galyanic battery and complication of in
genious mechanism. A part of this is
a sort of clock which notes the smallest
motion of the earth, although that motion
may be imperceptible to the attendants.
The wheel-work of the clock carries a
reel-paper covered, as in Morse
Geographic instrument whose speed is
regulated and known. The magnet
which sets the clock-work in motion drags
down little pencil upon the paper, and
the shock begins to write its life. Sc
soon as the shock has passed the pencil
retreats, but the paper rolls on that if
any number of shocks succeed each other
all registered in pencil, with blanks be-
tween, indicative of the length Of each
interval of quiet. So much for perpen-
dicular shocks. A horizontal shock is
attended to carefully by other machinery
AS yet no relation has been traced be-
tween earthquakes and eruptions, and
Vesuvius is as likely to break out after a
great terrestrial disturbance, without
even the warning of an extra cloud o.
smoke, as it is to do so after long time
of tranquility and silence in the region
round about.

The. Ear of Dionysius.

In the neighborhood of Syracuse, in
Sicily. is a cave of great depth, which is
said to have been built by Dionysius the
Elder, tyrant, or usurper, who was
born about B. c., 430, and died in the
sixty-third year of his age, and the thirty
ninth of his rule. The cave was two
hundred and fifty feet long and eighteen
feet high. 1t was fashioned in the form
of a human ear. and the faintest sounds
were carried from all parts to central
chamber, which oorresponded to the tym-
paaum or drum of the ear. In this re-
markable whispering gallery Dionysius
imprisoned all who were the objects of
his suspicious, while he himself was in
the habit of passing entire days in the
innermost chamber, listening to the con-
versation of his victims, in order that he
might ascertain for himself who were
really his enemies. Ancient writers tell
us that the workmen who constructed the
cavern were put to death to prevent them
from divulging the use to which it was
to be put and that whole families were
sometimes confined in it at once. Mod
ern travellers relate that even at the pres
ent day, Notwithstanding the changes
which have been wrought by time, the
echo is such that the tearing of a sheet of
paper at the entrance can be distinctly
heard in the remotest part. Pieces of
iron and lead have been found in maxim e
excavations, and they are thought to be
the remains of the chains and staples by
which the prisoners were confined

About Mad Dogs.

In recent lecture read by DIR. John
T. Garrish at the quarterly meeting of a
Medical Board, it was shown, that the
months IN which the largest number of
cases of hydrophobia have been reported
are September, November, and December.
This indicates, considering the long peri
cd usually for tho Development of the
poison, that the greatest number of per-
sons are bitten about the time of the dog
days. The period before the poison from
the bite of mad dog begins to show its
presence in the system varies from three
to seven weeks, rarely more or less than
that period. A remarkable experiment,
in the interest of science, was once made !:
1873 dogs were collected which had either
been bitten by mad dogs or inoculated
with the foam freshly collected from the
mad animals. Of this number 68 went
mad-a few within few days, but most
of them at intervals of from twenty to 90
days. It appears that instances of by
drophobia occur much less frequently in
southern than northern latituass. South
America is said to be entirely free from
it. This particular malady has thus far
almost baffled medical skill. Often when
a person has been bitten by dog suppos-
ed to be rabid he suffers greatly from APP
prehensions. But actual contact of the
saliva of a rabid animal with wounded
or abraded surface is required for the de-
velopement of bydrophobia; and frequent.
ly when an animal bites through the cloth
ing the poison does not reach the system.
Dir. Garrish stated that mad dog never
has its; that the existence of epilepsy is
clear proof that there is no rabies ; also
that they 90 not shun the water. They
will stand and lap the water with no spasm
attending the effort to swallow, but swal-
lowing little on account of the invariable
paralysis Of the muscles about the jaws
and throat--a sign by which the rabid
dog may be detected. 1t was thought a
while ago that bromade of potassium
would prove a remedy for this much
dreaded disease but recent experiments,
both in this country and in Europe. have
shown it to be efectual. A celebrated
veterinary surgeon, who has himself been
bitten on several occasions, says that crys-
tai of nitrate of silver rubbed into the
wound will positively prevent hydropho-
bia. An eminent French physician re-
commends the Russian bath as success
full remedy. His system once having
been inoculated with virus from the saliva
of patient suffering with hydrophobia.
he experienced symptoms of the dreadful
disease He took steam bath, and when
it reached the neat of seventy-fve de-
grees ccntigrade. all the symptoms disap-
peared as if by magic, and he experience
ed them no more. Dr. Garrish also gives
his decision in favor Of the vapor bath as
an effective means of eliminating the poi
sop from the system.

DETERMINATION of weeds.

Useless an noxious weeds always make
stronger growth than grain and useful
plants. Farmers have no time to specu-
late upon the cause Of this. Perhaps it is
quite sufficient for them to know that all
their energy must be directed to the sub
jugation Of pig weed, Roman NORWOOD,
pigeon grass, kale, daisies, Canada this
ties and score of kindred nuisances.
It is very plain that if the farmer would
once exterminato the seeds of all these
pests Of the farm, from every field, the
labor of cultivating crops would be great
ly reduced It would be no cxagera-
ton to say that at least fifty per cent. of
the labor would be saved. The condition
of the sell would be SO much more favor
able for the growth Of crops that much
larger yield might be expected, which,
from its clean condition, would command
an EXCHANGED price. The waste fertil-
izing matter which is consumed by growth
of weeds would be saved.
Without going any farther, here are
reasons enough fer the determination of
weeds. The common practice, by great
majority of farmers, is to carry on slug
gish warfare against weeds, keeping them
back till the crops get start, and allow
ing them to ripen their seeds together.
The fence corners, and also barn-yards,
and every nook about the buildings. are
covered with rank growth of weeds.
The soil is SO full Of foul seeds that as
soon as ono crop of weeds is killed anoth-t
er springs into life to take its place.
The question presents itself whether
every farmer may not rid his soil of the
germs of useless vegetable life, and if it
will not be very profitable operation for
him to do SO.
The usual method of Kidding soil Of
foul weeds is by fallow. The process,
however involves the loss Of the use of the
land for season, besides the labor of re-
peated blowing and narrowing.
We have known farmers, who, with
out resorting to fallow, have, by thor
ough hoeing and careful pulling weeds
from sowed crops, never allowing weed
to perfect its seed, so as to reduce their
number as to be almost entirely exempt
from this vestige of the curse Of original
sin. The extra labor of the more thor
ough cultivation is paid for at once in the
improvement Of the crop. The extra la
Dor required will become less each year,
and very soon thorough cultivation will
be performed with less labor than was
previouly required in the ship-shod meth
