The True Theory About Fresh Air,

| y - .
The following facts on ''open win
dows at night" are from Halls Jour>
nal of Heath
Every much has been written on
this subject, and written unwisely
the facts are that whoever sleeps un-
comfortably cool will get sick. To
hoist the window sky high when the
mercury is at zero is absurdity. The
colder a sleeping apartment is the
more unhealthy does it become, be.
cause cold condenses the carbonic
acid formed by the breathing Of the
sleeper. 1t settles near the floor, and
is re-breathed, and if in very con-
densod form he will die before morn
ing. Hence we must be governed by
circumstances the first thing you
must be comfortably warm during
sleep, otherwise you are not refreshed,
and Inflammation Of the lungs may
be engendered, and life destroyed
within very few days. An open
door aud an open fire place are
sufficient for ordinary purposes in
cold weather.
"When outer windows are open, it
is well to have them down at the top
two or three inches, and up at the
bottom for the same space, in MAS
mic localities and these are along
the watercourses, beside mllponds,
marshes, bivouacs, river bottoms, fiat
islands, and the like. 1t is the most
important from the first of August
until several severe frosts have been
noticed, to sleep with all external
doors and windows closed, because
the cool air Of sunset causes the con-
densation OF the poisonous emanations
which were caused by the heat of the
MONDAY sun to rise far above the
earth. This condemnation makes the
air heavy by the great Qualification
Of the carnations by cold these
resting on the surface Of the earth in
the more concentrated and malignant
form, they are breathed into the
lungs and swallowed into the stomach,
corrupting and poisoning the blood
with great rapidly. By daylight
these condensations are made 50 COM
pact by the protracted GOODNESS of the
night, they are too near the surface
of the earth to be breathed into the
system but as the sun begins TO as
cend these heavy condensations be-
gin to rise TO the height of several
feet above the ground, and are free
ly taken into the system by every
breath and swallowed; hence the
hours Of sunrise and sunset are The
most unhealthy hours OF the twenty
four in the localities named and
noontide, when the sun is the hottest,
is the most healthy portion Of the
day, because the miasms is so much
rartied that it ascends rapidly to the
upper regions The general lessons
are First, avoid exposure to the
outdoor air in miasmatic localities for
the hours including sunrise and sun
act. Second, have q blazing fire on
the hearth Of the family room at
these hours to rarity and send the
miasma upward Third, take break
fast before going out Of doors in the
morning, and take tea before SUM-
down then being out at night is not

DRERssED BLACK HoGs.-A corres-
pendent OF the Michigan Farmer SAYS:
The principal objection to the Essex
aud Berkshire breed Of hogs find to
be their color. Now, as Youatt Just
" observes, this is not even skin
deep" The ooloring matter will be
found 20 DO secreted between the
true skin and the epidermis, or outer
skin. If care Is taken 10 scalding
black hogs, they can be dressed as
white Is any white hogs. 1t is a
well known principle that all black
substances absorb heat. Hence, in
dressing black hogs, the water should
not be so hot as in soalding white
ones. Ifthis simple rule is observed,
there will no difficulty, in dressing
black hogs. Instead of the color be-
ing any objection, l regard it as an
advantage, for the skin of a black
hog will always be found smooth and
glossy tree from cutaneous eruption.
and always clear.

FARM TOPICS.
A Variety Of Crops.


Mixed husbandry has two great
advantages--it gets the benefit of all
the land has TO bestow, the various
crops drawing upon the various ma
terlals of soil. Hence a greater
length of time can be covered with
out replenishing the land, though it
is better to feed literally and con-,
stantly. Second In the variety OF
produce there is always some pro-
ducts that will sell we'll in the worst
Of times, while there is less loss in the
poor prices where but small quantities
are sold. In this way there is no
loss, but always a gain; not for a
fortune realized (nor for a fortune
lost.) but fair, moderate profits Sc
cured.
This is safe farming, just as in spec
uIation the man who is content with
moderate profits is the safe specula-
tor, prosecuting his trade when the
others fail.
The beauty is to make the achole
soil work, nothing lying dormant,
useless for whatever fertility the
farm has unused, it must always be
remembered, is 80 much loss in inter
est, and in the use of the profit
But, as we have said, the farmer is
safe and in these critical times this
is of the first Importance. Have
many things 70 sell rather than one
Of a kind largely, which--thougb
many chances are against twill
sell at a low figure, which any of our
thinking farmers know is not tine
figure that pays, for remember, ev-
cry penny, not every dollar we will
say, but every penny gained in SELL
ing is so much clear gain. Have a
variety then, to be sure to get this
clear gain.

BoRERs IN APPLE TREEs.-The best
plan to prevent borers from entering
apple trees is to wrap the base Of the
trunk with tarred roofing paper. A
piece foot or more wide is wrapped
around the tree, the lower edge o.
the paper extended just below the
surface of the soil. Before this is ap
piled the tree should be examined tC

We don't see how any Democrat
can evade the force of the following
logic. Itis letter from Hon. w. w.
Wheaton, of Detroit late chairman Of
the Democratic State Committee of
Michigan, addressed to the Democratic
National Committee, refusing to sup
sort Mr.. Greeley. Mr.. Wheaton says
GENTLEMEN: Those who expect a
Democratic administration from Hor-
ace Greeley must assume him to be
shamefnlly dishonest in politics, which,
il true, should be reason enough for
every Democrat to withhold his vote
from him. He must be recreant and
false to his record and his whole past
life not to disappointment expectations.
As q democrat / have always recog-
nized, and still do recognize, the bind
ing force upon every member of the
party of the action of the regularly
constituted conventions of the party,
so long as such conventions themselves
keep within the party organization ;
but l do not yield to the proposition
that such conventions have any claim
to the obedience or acquiescence of
the members of the party in the de-
liberate eale to their political enemy.
This is what was done ct Baltimore,
and this leaves every Democrat not q
party to the fraud free to act and vote
as he may choose.

Does any one seriously suppose the
Democratic party has changed since
the Esd OF March, 1871? Does Horace
Greeley honestly believe bis descrip-
tion of its character is any less true to-
day than il was on that day last year
And yet at that date he said in the
Tribune,
The Democratic party of to-day Is
simply the rebellion seeking to achieve
its essential purposes within and
through the Union. A victory which
does not enable ii to put its feet on the
necks Of the black race, seems to the
bulk olits adheraats not ,cOyih hariag.
It's heart is just where it was when it
regarded slavery in the Constitution as
two names for one thing. 1T hates the
Generals who led the Union armies to
victory and rarely misses q chance to
disparage them. 1t elings to that ex-
aggerated notion of State Rights which
makes them the shield of all manner OF
wrongs and abuses. II takes counsel
