Inventions.

The greatest inventions seem to have
been almost simultaneously duplicated.
Faust and Guttenburg still divide the
honor of discovering the art of print
ing, and of the rival claimants of dis
covering the invaluable use of ether,
either may receive the praise. When
Watt cudgeled the steam engine out of
his brain, it was found that a mad
Frenchman had projected the whole
thing on paper long before, and been
imprisoned for boring people with his
diagrams. When Morse threw off the
magnetic telegraph as a spark from his
electric mind, it was only to find that
Ampere was already familiar with the
affair. And poor Elias Howe could not
be allowed to have the glory of
making the sewing machine all TO him.
self, but Thimonnier disputed his claim,
and made all France believe that he
had actually designed the thing, even
though the cunning Yankee had got
the start In the small matter of execu.
ton. Thimonnier's widow died a few
weeks ago, and was buried in great
pomp, the sewing machine manufac.
turers turning out in great numbers to
pay their respect to the memory of the
inventor of their craft, and after the
funeral they dined together and sub
scribed two thousand dollars for q
monument to 1.-THE Inventor of the
Sewing Machine"

Drying Pumpkins.

We do not know the origin of the
following, or we would credit it: Take
the ripe pumpkins. pare, cut irto small
slices, stew soft, mash and strair through
q cullender, as if for making pies.
Spread this pulp on plates in layers not
quite an inch thick dry it down IN the
stove oven, keep at so low tempera-
ture as not to scorch it. In about day
it will become dry and crisp. The
sheets thus made can be stored away in
a dry place, and they are always ready
for use for pies or sauce. Soak the
pieces over night in little milk, and
they will return to nice pulp, as deli.
cious as the fresh pumpkin-we think
much more SO. The quick drying after
cooking prevents any portion from
slightly souring, as is always the case
when the uncooked pieces are dried
the flavor is much better preserved, and
after cooking is saved. This plan is
quite as little trouble as the old mode,
TO say nothing of the superiority in the
quality of the material obtained. Try
it and you will not return to the old
method, we are sure, and you will also
become great lover of pumpkin pie
all the year round"

Agricultural Postal Laws.

There is no one, however remotely he
may be engaged from the garden or the
farm, but who is interested in the food
he eats or the raw material from which
his clothing is made. Hence all that
has been done during the past few years
in aid OF the agricultural interest has
been cheerfully acceded to by the whole
community.
One of the greatest boons to this
great interest was the permission
10 send seeds, CRAFTS, plants and
cuttings by mail at the rate of two
cents for every four ounces in quantities
of not less than four pounds. 1t was
thankfully accepted, and by this means
innumerable varieties of valuable vege-
table articles have been introduced into
parts OF the country where railroads
and express companies failed to reach.
No one ever complained of the law that
we have heard of. 1t was thought 1t
might operate TO the disadvantage of
the express companies, but in the main
the parties who have availed themselves
of this accommodation would not have
used the express and besides, the mat.
ter is so small an item in the express
DLsIlltsS iudl ~ - uiIlhtly ludt IL WOultt
seriously interfere with them. At any
rate, this good step in progress is vir-
tually repealed by the new postal code,
and the agricultural community feel
very indignant thereat, the more so as
no one can see any particular reason
why this retrograde step should have
been taken.
By the present law packages of only
twelve ounces can be mailed. Some OF
the smaller kinds of roots and seeds
can yet 60 in this way, but of larger
varieties not enough can be sent to be
of any service TO any except to raise a
half dozen specimens for botanic gar.
den and as for living vegetation, where
so much OF packing material has to be
employed to preserve them fresh and
from injury by the pressure of other
mail matter, the postal limit will be
reached before the plant is inclosed.
The great topic of conversation in
agricultural circles just now ic what in
terest, public or private, is to be served
by this unasked and unexpected change
But it is probably nothing more than a
piece Of hasty legislation, adopted with
out rejecting much on the conse
quences, and which, if brought to the
notice of their Representatives by those
interested, will no doubt be remedied
next session.-PhiLadelphia Press.

Fall Planting OF Seeds.

Those who have no hot. beds will find
il advantageous 10 SOW many vegetable
seeds in autumn. Lettuce, if sown now,
and then given slight protection by
covering with hay or straw, will come
forward very rapidly in spring, and be
in a condition for the table weeks be-
fore that sown next spring. Every per-
son who has a garden must have noticed
that selt.grown tomatoes come forward
much earlier than those sown in the
usual way in the open ground; and we
have known them to give ripe fruit as
early as plants started in a hot bed.
Few persons, however, seem to think
that tomato seeds can be sown advan-
tageously in autumn, but the plan is
perfectly practicable, and should be
tried by those who have no other way
of obtaining early plants. The seeds
should not be sown until the soil has
become so cool that no growth will oc.
cur before winter; then cover the entire
surface of the seed.bed with coarse ma
nure to the depth Of one or two inches,
a part of which may be removed in
spring. A warm, protected situation
should be selected for the purpose.
Spinach for early spring use may be
sown now, and in the richest soil at
command. When the ground begins to
freeze, cover the plants at least two
inches deep with dry, clean straw. If
the weather should be favorable, por-
ton of the plants will grow large enough
for use during the winter, or as soon as
they can be obtained in spring.
Horse-radish roots that will be wanted
for use next winter should be lifted be-
fore the ground begins to freeze, and
stored in sand where they can be reached
when wanted. All the small crowns
and side shoots not large enough for
use may be planted again this fall.

WINNING GOLDEN OPINIONS.-Perhaps
no man living has won more golden
opinions than DR.. Walker, as the enor
nous and widely increasing sale of his
CALIFORNIA VINEGAR BITTERs attests.
We never look into one of our ex.
changes, but there is panegyric Of the
Bitters staring Us in the face. Our
readers will say that there must be a
reason for all this praise. They are
right. The efficacy of this celebrated
medicine is established by evidence
which it is impossible to doubt. Among
the thousands who have borne testi.
mony to its excellence, there is not one
dssentient voice. In very many phases
of inorganic disease it seems 10 be un.
failing. All diseases arising from a vitiated
state of the blood are surely eradicated by it
1t is an effectual remedy for pulmonary COM
plants, bilious remitteut and intermittent
fevers, rheumatism and dyspepsia. 1t purges
the body OF all unhealthy humors, gives tone
to the system. and where the vital powers
are enfeebled, restores their functions TO
vigorous and healthy action. All this it does
the more edectually because its operation is
not interfered with by the presence of alco-
hol. The VINEGAR BITTERs is perfectly free
from any such hurtful ingredient. We have
always believed that plants contain the true
remedies for disease and all the remedies
necessary. DR.. Walker is on the line of real
progress, and we hope that he will not rest
on his present discoverles.-lCom.

Salt As n Fertilizer.

The Office of salt as an agent in the
culture Of the soil is to make the earth
moist and cool. Hence its effect is more
clearly seen on light, sandy soils. On
wet, heavy clays and in a damp season
it will do no perceptible good. The pro-
portion TO apply is about one pound per
rod, or about one hundred and sixty
pounds per acre. This is the substance
of the Gardeners Monthly's reply to a
correspondent on the subject.
