Fall Treatment Of Clay Lands.

A clay soil under proper mode of
treatment is our most productive soil
What is called an agricultural clay, that is,
clay with twenty-five per cent OF sand in
intimate mixture with it, is the best and
most lasting soil for grain, and especially
grass. But while light loan is com
paratively safe from injury, a clay soil
can be mcasurably ruined by improper
treatment And the greatest danger is to
be apprehcnded from plowing when too
wet. The working of clay in moist
condition will bring ii into state Of
tenacious consistency that frost cannot
overcome, and many years OF tillagc viii
be required to reduce. In the meantime
its value is lessened and fertility impaired.
Draining such soils is necessary for their
proper cultivation inasmuch as it often
becomes either necessary or desirable 10
work them before they can naturally get
rid of an extensive amount OF moisture.
Farmers can not he too watchtul OF clay
lands at this season of the year, lest one
unreasonable blowing should cause a
serious injury. Here is seen the advan-
tage of draining. While one farmer is
enabled to keep his men and teams at
work and seize favorable opportunity
for forwarding his operations, his neigh
Dor having an undrained farm, is com
PEELED to lie idle and loses both time and
money. The capital invested in drains
returns interest in other ways than by in
creased crops Hearth and Home.

How to Fasten Cows.

best form of fastening, that is, an upright
pole three inches in diameter, at the left
side Of the cows neck.
We have recently examined constable
fitted up in this manner, which second to

The distance from the front Of the stall to
the gutter is six feet two inches. Two

meal from being thrown out and wasted.
The side Of the manger nearest the cattle
is bordered by twO-inch plank SIX inches
high. The fastening-polcs stand lmmedi-
ately against these planks, and they are
securely fastened, top and bottom. The
four feet two inches left between the fast
ening.poles and the gutter is ample stand
inc room for average size cows. In one
part of the barn a little more room Is Civ
en-, and the cattle here are much soiled,
the manure dropping on the planks on
which they lie. II is usual to clasp the
cows neck with short chain, OF which Il
large link plays up and down the pole.
There have been accidents resulting from
the binding of the rings on the poles In
the case which we are describing there is
n simple leather strap around the COW $
neck which is buckled loose enough to in
cIude the pole 1t looked awkward, but
was said to be satisfactory. n. \. Post.

The Bethlehem pa Times says that
the Oldest locomotive engineer in the
United States is Barney Butt, who now
runs an engine on the Lebanon branch OF
the Reading Railroad. Barney was born
in Conynglam, Luzerne County, Penn,
and went on the Beaver Meadow Railroad
about the year 1885 or 1886. In 1897 he
was running an engine from Parryyille to
Weatherly, the planes being then in opera
ton. The cars were drawn up the planes
by stationary engine, and were then
drawn into the Beaver Meadow mines by
a locomotive engine. A good story is told
Of Barney's readiness in case Of an emer.
rency. One day his engine would not
make steam well, and he was likely to be
oyertaken by passenger train before ne
could reach the turnout. Seeing GOOD.

Effects Of the Disaster to the Arctic
Whaling Fleet.

The destruction Of the Aict,c whaling
Meet Will prove crushing blow to the
VIVA ling interest OF this country, and es.
pecially to the business located in New
Bedford, where the vessels DESTROYED are
principally owned. The catching of
whales has not been remunerative ayoca.
ton for several years past, and the fleet in
consequence has been gradually reduced,
but the immense destruction of this de-
scrlption OF property in the Arctic the
present season is likely to prove misfor-
tune hard TO overcome.
The news, OF course, has completely un-
settled the oil market, for not only has the
| entire catch of the Arctic feet been lost but
| the vessels, with their outfits, are also gone
beyond recovery. 1t is stated that thirty
three ships have been wrecked with their
contents, including IL, $50 barrels of whale
oil and 965 barrels sperm, the total loss be-
ing estimated at 81 5000 No event has
before occurred in the history of the bust
ness more calculated to affect the oil
markets, and in Boston on Monday the
price of whale oil jumped from sixty cents
to one dollar per gallon, rise of forty
cents over the last sales few DAYS ago.
Holders of the article are not in hurry to
sell even at this large advance, and no
transactions are reported, both buyers and
sellers not having AS yet sufficiently digest
ed the news to be able to enter upon nego-
tiations
The price of sperm oil will also be af-
fected but not to the extent of whale, as
the latter formed the chief part of the oil
loss. A few days ago sperm was offered
at 81 40 per gallon and 81 35 offered The
entire stock of oil in this country on the
first of the present month amounted to
IL, 600 barrels sperm and 1000 barrels
whale, against stock of %, $50 barrels
sperm and sc, 900 barrels whale on the 1st
of January, leaving two months consump-
ton yet to be estimated before the close
of the year. The quantity held in Boston
to-day is Zoo barrels sperm and 800 bar
rels whale.
The disaster to the Arctic fleet is owing
to the fact that the vessels have remained
later il. the season in those high ATTITUDES
than prudence would warrant, and this
season they probably had worked far up
the north. We had occasion last year to
call attention to the danger of such IA
course, and we have been informed that
one or more ships barely escaped in 1870
from fate which has recently over
whelmed almost the whole fleet. On that
occasion had one shipmaster been six hours
later he would have been caught in the
ice.
The large catch of oil sometimes prom
ised at the close of the season has been the
temptation to hold on till the last hour.
1t is not safe to remain in those inhospita
bic seas after the lst of September.
During the last two years the catch has
been very large in those regions.
The insurance loss by this disaster falls
mainly Oh the offices in New Bedford. We
hear of no loss to the underwriters in

Professor Low gives this method of
removing chatf from the eye of an animal:
The best way is TO pick il off with pair
OF finepincers, the head being held stead
lily by an assistant having hold of the
nose, and the eyelids held o.en by the OPP
posite hand. In the absense of pincers or
forceps, cover pin with single layer of
a soft handkerchief and scrape offthe chat
with the head of the pin so protected. The
eye will suffer much more from the CON
tinued presence of the chatf than from
pretty active scraping. Keepa rag wet in
cold water over the eye for day or two
after removal; then touch it daily with a
feather dipped in a solution of lunar cals-
tic, five grains to the ounce of distilled
water"
Apple Pudding-An excellent, sim
pie pudding can be. made in the following
way: Pare, quarter and core apples sufti-
cient to fill small pudding dish over one
half, and then pour in water two inches
deep. Make crust of one pint of flour
one-half teaspoonful of salt, and sufficient
quantity of baking powder; add only
level teaspooful of lard and flour enough
to make q wet dough, which must be
quickly rolled out, put over the pudding
dish, and placed on hot stove. Cover it
tightly with tin cover, on which put a
flat iron. The steam produced inside the
pan causes the apple and crust to cook
very rapidly; fifteen minutes will be found
long enough. Serve hot, with hard sauce
of butter and sugar
-Hulled Corn--For three quarts of white
shelled corn, take three pints common
wood ashes in IA sack, IAN old salt sack
will do and put into gallon of water
over hot fire After it has boiled ten
minutes, pour in the corn and boil until
the hull will slip off between the thumb
and finger, then wash in clear, cold water
until clean, washing it with the hands or
stirring with paddle Put one.half of it
over a slow fire to simmer, Preserving the
other half for the next day, and if cold
weather it will keep week. always keep
ing it covered with water Some corn
will cook in from six to ten hours, other
corn will require fifteen or eighteen hours.
To be eaten with salt and butter, or milk
and sugar, to suit the taste The great Sc
cret is to get it cooked enough without
burning-cooking slowly is the surest pre-
