The Inyalil.-A Pen Picture.

See her palid countenance, but a
short time ago the picture of rudy
health, the envy of the school and the
pride Of the household. She was al
ways welcomed by her schoolmates, for
her 1.-the form and pleasing dispo-
sition carried cheerfulness into their
ranks. Dilligent, punctual and exemp-
larry, obedient and graceful at home,
she won the hearts of all. But alas, we
are sorrowed. Those rosy cheeks and
ruddy lips are blanched by consump-
ton. The voice once 80 enchanting
in laugh and song is feeble,
husky and supplanted by a hollow
cough. Let us approach her couch
gently and take her hand. Do not shud
der because of the feeble and passionless
grasp. The hand once SO hearty and
plump is emaciated and shows bony
outlines, while the cords and tortuous
veins are plainly mapped upon the
surface. The pulse that bounded with
repletion, carrying vigor to the whole
system and imparting life, beauty, vi
vacity, health and strength, is delicate
to the touch. The feeble heart can not
propel the thin, scanty blood with force.
Must we lose her while yet in her
teens9 Companions and friends gather
around with words of cheer and
consolation and depart with moistened
eyes and silent steps. Must we lose
her? No! there is relief! We can stav
this destroyer Of our happiness and not
suffer the loss of so bright q gem.
Something more is required now than
dietary and hygenic observance, for
nature calls for aid and she shall have
it. Take this pleasant medicine. It
is invigorating. How it allays the irri-
table cough, improves the appetite and
digestion and sends healthy Jingle
through the frame. The blood is en-
riched, nervous force increased, and
the heart bounds with a new impulse.
See her face brighten by degrees; the
color is returning. her voice is getting
clearer, and pleasant words are spoken.
The strength falters yet but is gaining.
Let us take her out in the warm sun
shine. In short time she will be able
to 90 without aid, cheerful girl. This
delightful medicine must be God bless

Value OF Straw for Fodder.

In the Elmira Farmers' Club, the
question arose as to the value of straw
tor fodder compared with hay. The
feirest estimate was given by General
Diven, who thought five tons of straw,
fed with one ton of corn meal, equal to
six tons of prime hay. Rating hay
ut S18 ton. coin meal at forty, the
straw would be worth 1888 a ton.
For wintering farm horses and such
stock it may be desirable to keep it in
good condition, but not fatten, good
straw with proper amount of grain
is Just as good Is hay. Sheep may be
we'll fattened on grain and straw alone,
though a change Of other food. espec-
tally roots, is desirable. The grain
farmer can find large profit in taking
pains to secure his straw in good con-
dition, keep it from spoiliag by wet,
and then feeding it properly in con-
janction with coarse grain.

their way from Virginia with some
GO, 900 b shells on board, but when they
will arrive is doubtful. The weather
on the oyster ground has been very un.

Mich Cows.
An exchange says:

Mich COWS, if fed literally, may be
MIXED until within six weeks of caly-
ing. In ordin ~ cases, however, it is
better to let them go dry for two mouths
or ten weeks. The COW and the calf
will both be stronger; and any fat or
flesh stored up during this peri: d will,
i'll the case of a good COW, find its way
to the milk pail next summer. For
this reason we advocate liberal feeding.
even when the cows are dry. Because
a good mixer is always thin before the
end of the season, many farmers advo.
cate keeping COWS thin in order to make
them good mixers. They mistake
cause for effect. The COW is thin be-
cause she is good mixer, not good
mixer because she is thin. There is a
great prejudice against corn meal for
mich cows. If fed without Judgment
it may be injurious, but il our own OK.
perience We have never known two
quarts of corn meal dry, cooked or
1lncooked, (but far better cooked), to
have any other than the most bencfi-
cial effect. DO not forget to card the
COWS, or to give salt regularly, and Nh
abundant supply of fresh quot ice-cold)

Farm House Cellara.

These are too often sources of dis
ease or death. Farmers families ought
to be the most exempt of any from
sickness which arises from uncleanlv
surroundings. Sometimes, oftentimes,
in fact, a farmers, family is thinned
fcarfully by malarious diseases, even
after frost is supposed to have render
ell malaria innoxious from tho sources
whence it is ordinarily supposed to
emanate. Too often the cause of these
maladies lies in the cellar. Fruits and
vegetables are stored therein, and it
m 'st he warm and close to keep out
til" frost. Decay takes place, and
gases al" evolved, which find their
way to the upper rooms and poison
the occupants. Children and weakly
people are especially susceptible to
their effects, and fevers, throat diseas-
cs, and colds prevail. The cellar
should be used as little as possible as
storehouse for vegetable matter,
which may decay or change, and it
should be well ventilatel.-Rurol
