The New Liquor Law.

The new Temperance law" So
called, which went into effect in this
State on Monday last, has not, thus
fAr, met the expectations OF its friends
In this city, where. - fAr - We are
abls TO learn, not single liquor saloon
Of any description has been compelled
70 s0spead operations in consequence
Of the statute. The explanation is
very simpls. In Chicago the ordi-
nance requires . saloon-keeper to pay
only the paltry sum $50 for . license;
ifit were raised TO $500, nearly every
"low groggery" would be compelled
TO close. AZ regards the $S 900 bonds
which the new law requires saloon
keepen to give, It appears that the
keepers In this city nnd no serious
difficulty in conforming to the require
ment, the Wholesale liquor merchants
from whom they make their purchases
willingly becoming their bondsmen.
And thus the new Law. although strict
ly enforced, fails Of reducing the num-
Der Of liquor saloons. How 1t will be
ultimately, when poor wives or parents
who are the tho suffering victims Of
the liquor traffic shall begin to prose-
cute the sellers Of liquor by which
their husbands and children are ruin
ed, remains to be seen. The more
reputable liquor-sellers, who had hop
I'd good results from the new law,
aasnre us that II the amount charged
for licenses were increased TO several
hundred dollars, and II saloon keepers'
bonds were increased to about SO, 900,
the effect Of the law would be what its
friends desire. The hint is worthy OF
the consideration Of the next Legisla-
turs. A. regards the lager beer in
tsrest, some very good practical friends
Of temperance suggest that 1t might
very properly aud safely be exempted
from the operations Of the the law,
inasmuch as it would have the effect
to change the present expensive and
destructive practice OF whiskey -drin L :
ing To the cheap and almost harmless
one Of beer-drinking.

Preserving Farm Tools.

Every farmer should have q can of
linseed oil and a brush on hand, and
when he buys new tool he should
soak it we'll with the oil and dry it be-
fore the fire or in the sun before using.
The wood by this treatment is tough.

1mpervious to water. Wet new hay
rake, and when it dries it will begin to
be loose in the joints; but if we'll oiled,
the wet will have but slight effect.
Shovels and forks are preserved from
checking and cracking in the top of the
handle by oiling, the wood becomes as
smooth as glass by use, and is far less
liable toblister the hand when long used.
Axe and hammer handles often break of
where the wood enters the iron; this
part, particularly, should be toughened
with oil to secure durability. Oiling the
wood in the eye of the axe will prevent
it from swelling and shrinking and
sometimes getting loose. The tools on
large farm cost a great deal of money;
they should be of the most approved
kinds. 1t is poor economy at the pres.
ent extravagant price of labor to SET
men to work with ordinary old fashion.
ed implements. Laborers should re,
turn their tools to the convenient places
provided for them. After using, they
should be put away clean and bright.
The mold boards of plows are apt to get
rusty from one season to another; even
IL sheltered, they should be brushed
over with few drops of oil when put
away, and they will then remain in
good order until wanted.

Doing Good Quietly.

Near the foot of q mountain, crossed
by much Travelled road, delicious
fountain of water gnshed from fissure
in rock. Its natural course led away
from the road, but by little effort it
could be brought within the reach of
travellers and animals passing by. Mr..
Sawyer, the owner of the land, gave it
this direction, and placed wide trough
for the reception of the water. Many
a painting team was refreshed thereby,
and many IA traveller tasted the cool and
sparkling beverage.
"Father," said Robert Harmer, as
they came along and saw Mr.. Sawyer
at work, "what does Mr.. Sawyer dc
that for ?"
"To do good" was the reply.
"What good will 1t do him? He will
never want to use the water"
"Iiis object is to do good to Others,
Great numbers will be benefited by this
act of his"
"But they won't know that he did 1t
and he won't get any credit for it,"
"He does it to do good, not to gel
credit for it. Happiness Is gained by
doing good, not in getting credit for it,
He knows that he has made an unselfish
effort to do good, and God knows 1t
hence it Is no matter whether any Others
know II or not"

Alsike Clover I'm Michigan.

Samuel Booth, Branch county, Mich,
writes the Western Rural: "a year ago
last spring, I hesitatingly purchased
enough of the seed to SOW twenty five
acres, it taking at the rate of four and
one-third pounds to the acre, at one dol
lar per pound. Isowed in the month OF
April, on ground prepared for and sowed
to wheat. 1 narrowed the ground, and
afterward plastered it. Notwithstand-
ing the dry season, 1 cut from that
ground about forty tons of hay in July.
drew in my barn five tons for feeding;
the balance 1 stacked, and in Septem-
ber threshed it and got eighty-five
bushels of seed. Before cutting 1
brought in some stalks which measured
four feet in length. The field on which
1t was sown is high, rolling land. soil
dark sandy loan. 1 am feeding this
winter my entire stock, consisting of
horses and cattle, on the hay that was
threshed. They never thrived better
on any feed than they do at the present
time. 1t is free from fuzz and dust, and
the stalk, unlike the other clover, re-
mains green after the seed has ripened,
and the cattle seize it with an avidity
that would plainly indicate itssuperiori-
ty over the common red clover. 1t is
also excellent for the honey bee, equal
to if not surprising the white clover.
The first cutting produces the seed, and
afterward excellent pasturage, but if
preferred for hay and no seed, it pro-
duces two crops. With the knowledge
have of it, 1 would not recommend it
for light yellow, sandy SOIL"

To Break up Setting Hens.

A writer from Bangor, Maine, says:
Build coop of laths four feet square,
with floor Of Jaths one or two inches
apart and eighteen inches FROM the
ground or floor. When a hen shows
broodiness place her in the coop with.
out iood or water until she gets over the
spell, which will be in day or two.
The idea is to reduce the natural heat
OF the body. With such a coop the air
draws under her and cools the outside,
and Withholding food or water (for water
Will keep up animal heat) will reduce
her blood, and when so cooled will not
set If wanted to. This mode is not open
to the criticism of such modes as keep
ing hens standing in water, where they
are liable to colds and then Group: OF
exposing them to the passions of furious
and strange 'blOoded cocks, often tearing
their backs, aud always endangering
the trueness of feather In the next litter
of eggs. The objection lately raised,
that to break up hens when brooding
Is contrary to nature, and too stimula
ting because exhaustive, is of little force
Except when hens are kept longer than
profitable for their breeds sake), for the
only way to make profit in breeding
is to kill the hens of one and two years
and keep the pullets.

What A Heavy Sod will DO.

The sod makes the corn. This may

that straight line Is the shortest dis
tance between two points. Ifthe sod is
right the corn can take care of itself.
What Is wanted is mass of roots, fill
ing the soil to the depth of three, four,
or five inches or more, and such a mat
of vegetation on the surface as will
inevitably belong to such mass Of
roots. Now, what such an amount of
vegetable matter easily decomposed,
and such as corn leaves to feed upon
would measure, can very easily be esti-
mated 1t would certainly be within
bounds to say that there would be on
every square rod ofground 80 cubic feet
of matter equal in fertilizing power to
average barn-yard manure. This is over
quarters of a cord per square rod;
and 100 rods going to make up an acre,
there would be over 100 cords of manure
to the acre. This amount of barn-yard
manure would seem perfectly bewilder.
ing to farmer, and would be beyond
the power of many to haul out and
spread. And here it is, on the spot, il
the most perfect shape possible to b,

argument tn show clearly that heavy
soil is the best, cheapest, and most easily

or invent? The vexed question o
whether one should plow deep or shall
