How to Preserve Fence Posts.

EVERY farmer who has to fence in his
land knows too well how quickly posts
planted in the earth become rotten, especi-
ally in damp spot. All of them will
welcome the following process to prevent
rottenness, process as wonderful in its
effects as it is simple and almost costless.
1t is taken from LIE Bien Public, of Dion,
France: Take linseed oil, boil it, and
mix it with charcoal dust until the mix
ture has the consistence of an ordinary
paint. Give to the posts single coat OF
the mixture or paint before planting them.
and no farmer, even living the age of the
patriarchs of old, will live long enough
to see the same posts rotten. Some years
ago discovered the way of rendering
wood more durable in earth than iron IT.
self" says the author Of the communica-
ton; 'but it seemed to me so simple and
30 inexpensive that / did not think it
worth while to make much ado and fuss
about 1t. Posts of soft wood thus prepar
ed were removed after remaining seven
years in earth, and were found as sound
as when they were planted. The only
precaution to take Is to use only we'll
dried posts before covering them with
charcoal paint"

In most instances house plants and
growing flower stalks do not receive-one-
half he necessary supply of water, while
in some cases too much Is applied. Every
flower pot and flower box should be pro-
vided with some means of escape for the
surplus water. II the earth is pressed
firmly about the roots the plant will re-
ceive all the moisture 1t requires before
this escape is made. A space Of about a
quarter or half an inch should be left be-
tween the surface Of the soil and the rim
of the pot or box, that the water may not
wash the earth over the edges to the floor
or into the saucers, but be allowed to
stand and work gradually down.
Moderately warm water seems most
agreeable to these adopted children of
ours, and surely they thrive best when in
obliged in this respect. Much that il erro-
neous has been said of the danger of
watering house plants too freely; but they

suffer more frequently from the opposite
mistake. The earthen pots in general use
are very porous, and evaporation through
them takes place speedily in our warm,
dry rooms. The earth should never be al
lowed to become dust dry, neither should
the water stand all day in pools about the
roots andslower stems, and, ihus standing
become sour and disagreeable. Every
flower pot should stand on saucer OF
plate, and there should be hole in the
bottom of the pot, so that the dry soil may
absorb water when 1t is poured on the
plate. When the soil will absorb nc
more, the water on the saucer should be
turned out-N " Herald

THE BRIDGE.

The singular action of the County Com
missioners in the matter Of building
bridge over Big Elk in the Fourth District,
still continues to be the subject of para
mount interest to the citizens of that sec
tion of the county. The fact that the
commissioners should decide against the
wishes of nine-tenths of the people most
interested in having a bridge, and against
the public interest as we'll, seems to aston
ish the plain men of that region. They
talk of demonstrating, with a petition
signed by nearly the whole district Only
twelve men they allege, favor the building
bridge at the upper fording in preference
to the lower; but the opinion which seems
to prevail among them who urged bridging
the lower fording, is that no matter how
numerous a petition were signed, request
ing the Commissioners to withhold action,
or reconsider their decision in the mat
ter, that the influences which swayed them
against the unmistakable wish of so large
majority as nine.tenths, while at the
same time overriding the public interest,
would still prevail, and their prayers have
no effect in counteracting the mischiev-
GUS influence of the "Elkton Ring
The upshot of the matter is, that the
county will be put to an unnecessary ex-
pense of five thousand dollars to satisfy
two or three favored individuals Of the
"ring," while the great necessities that
call so loudly for bridge, will remain for
the present neglected and unheeded, and
at future time, near or remote, as circum-
stances may determine, the great demands
of the public will have to be supplied at
an additional cost in building bridge at
the lower fording, where, every body that
knows anything of the business and travel
of the neighborhood agree, that as between
the two sites the demands of public inter-
est in favor of the lower, as compared
with the upper site are ten to one.
Personally we are not acquainted with
the location or travel of the neighborhood,
but what every body says is apt to be true.
If there was any political question involved
in the issue, we could account for the sim
gular action of the Commissioners, but
there is nothing of the kind apparent. 1t
appears to be a spontaneous demand for
bridge at the lower fording by very large
majority of men of all parties, defied and
dsspised by the quiet, invisible influence of
the Elkton ring" for what purpose the
future will develop, perhaps. The moral
is this: while the people continue to vote
like vassals for candidates dictated by the
" Elkton ring" they may expect the pub
lie good to be sacrificed to the interest ola
select few. The stencil rising from the
rottenness of some of the county offices is
enough to produce cholera this Summer.

Exposed persons, especially children, re-

The work, specimen pages Of which have
been furnished us by tho National Publish
ing Company, of Philadelphia, is COM
plete history of that vast region between
the Mississippi and the Pacific; its resourc-
es, climate, inhabitants, natural curiosities,
etc., etc. In answer to the natural excla-
nation, "Another Book on the West"'-
the author remarks very properly. There
ought to be a new book OH the West, by
some careful observer and thorough explor-
er, at least once a year; for SO many and
so varied are the changes, so important
the new discoveries, that "a volumn is but
thoroughly read before the facts it narrates
are old" The authors object was to make
his work startling novelty by telling the
exact truth abont particular points to
which settlers are most urgently invited
by circulars of land agents, railroad re-
ports and emigrant companies. That there
is much coloring in these publications by
speculators no one can doubt Mr.. Beadle,
travelling through all regions described by
these circulars, the correspondent Of an
independent newspaper that wanted moth
ing but facts, has had ample facilities in
five years to acquire the truth and no
motive to false color any fact of the book.
Two points he tells us in his preface to
the work he has kept steadily in view; I" to
give carefully arranged facts in regard to
the lands still open for settlement; and to
correct a number of popular errors in re-
gard to soil and climate" These facts are
invaluable to the man who meditates
making his future home in the West.
The work is in press and will soon be
issued by the National Publishing Com
pany of Philadelphia, No. 10 North Sew
