NEW YORK WORLD.
THE WORLD (!
FOR


N1HE YEAR 1871 BIDS FAIR TO BE
Il one of the most important and fruit
full in our political history. In is will be
shaped the great issues on which the
Presidential election Of 1872 must turn.
1t will be an era Of new political energy
IN the South, which, for the first time III
twelve years. comes unfettered into ma
tional canvass; and an era of confident
hope to the Democratic party everywhere.
The superannnated issues on which the
Radical party have stood are passing out
of politics, and the laundering ImbecIlity
and profgate extravaganza OF General
Grants administration need only to be
faithfully exposed to turn the tide of pub
lie feeling strongly against it. In this,
the great work OF the coming year, The
World will act no secondary part. Its
location in tho great focus Of national com
merce and Intelligence, the freshness and
abundance of its news, and its recognized
position as the leading organ OF the Demo-
cratic party, lay upon it mission and
nnossleship which it will discharge with
urhnching b0ldness, vigor, fidelity. and
zeal 1t will be in constant counsel and
communion with tire tried leaders and
sagacious statesmen of the party in all the
States of the Union, cordially cooperating
with them, and they with it, in building
up the party in order and unity; healing
differences, infusing confidence, inviting
and encouraging new prcselytes. and lead
ing on the party as bold and unbroken
phalanx to the great triumph which
awaits it in 1872 y
The share allotted to The World in this
combined and disciplined movement Of
the Democracy, in their onward march to
victory, is the dissemination of political
truth work which can be fruitful only
in proportion to the extent of its circula-
ton. We ask Democrats everywhere to
aid us in scattering the good seed broad
cast over the whole land, during the period
which IS so important in reference to the
coming harvest.

The Apple as an Article of Diet.

The Importance of apples as food has
not hitherto been sufficiently estimated
or understood. Besides contributing a
large portion of sugar, muclage, and
other nutritive compound in the form of
food, they contain such fine combina-
tiOn of vegetable acids, extractive sub
stances, and acromatic principles as to
act powerfully in the capacity of refriger-
ants, tonic, and entiseptics, and when
freely used at the season Of ripeness, by
rural laborers and others, they probably
maintain and strengthen the power Of
productive labor-Dr. LieJig

The Size of Rooms.

The american Builder says: In de-
termining what shall be the size of rooms
in house, there is one little item which
would always be we'll to consider, relating
as it does, both to future convenience and
economy. This is to make the surface of
the floor contain a certain number of
yards. Carpet merchants complain of
the trouble caused by the almost univer-
sal neglect of this simple precaution,
which, in many cases, is only the result
of their own carelessness. Even where
it is not possible to make floor to con-
tain even yards, it can be made to have
no fractional parts of feet, and yet this is
not always done. 1t is not matter of
the utmost importance, but it is one GER
tainly worthy Of consideration in fixing
the dimensions Of rooms, to make them
Of size to secure economy in carpeting.

Remedy for Rust in Wheat.

The following, from distinguished
agriculturalist, is taken from Brennan
paper: "For thirty years have found
this method successful in preventing rust
in wheat. Some hours, at the longest
six or eight, before sowing, prepare a
steep of three measures of powdered
quick lime and ten measures of cattle
urine. Pour two quarts of this on a
peck of wheat, stir with spade until ev-
cry kernel is covered white with it. BY
using wheat so prepared, rust of every
kind will be avoided | have often no.
tioed while in the neighboring fields, a
greater part of the crop is affected by
rust, in mine close by it, not single af-
fected ear could be found. The same
writer says he takes the sheaves and beats
off the ripest kernels with stick, and
uses the grains thus obtained for seed.

Ds5" a market gardner of Lake county,
ILL.,, says that he has the most remarkable
success in the use of salt on his tomato
plants. He applies it at various times
during the season, and that in every ease
its effect is marked in the increased
growth of both plant and the fruit. In
some cases, he lays the roots of backward
plants bare, and sprinkles them with a
teaspoonfull of ordinary barrel salt, and
then covers with soil. Plants treated in
this way take an immediate start, and
develop fine fruit.

How to Keep Hams Through Summer.

After your hams have taken salt hang
them up and smoke well, take them down
and dip them into boiling water for few

Then roll them in ashes while wet, and
hang them up again; smoke them more

and as he says, effectual plan Of soaring
birds from grain or fruit: Suspend a piece

scares off the birds Not even the most
fool hardy Of birds will remain in the

and said: "Mr. Moore, like your paper

".Ah right, brother Moore" and the
old fellow chuckled at what he thought
capital bargain He kept the contract
strictly, and at the end ofrhe year found
that he had paid about four prices for
his paper. He often tells the joke on
himself, and says he never has had the
face to say he was too POOR to take "a

It's, indeed, and perhaps it is even

"But one must talk of something,

a subdued tone.
"W hat, with the whole universe of

changes in the fashions and the new

"well, perhaps so, but-however, I
am not going to justify myself" said
Mrs. Holly, frankly. "[believe you are

It appears that one OF our illustrious
