the will of his wife. He was resolved
that he would, and she that he should
not 60. He did not go. His friends
missed him and, just for lark, in
vaded his residence, where they found
him and his wife sitting in their chairs,
fast asleep. He had given her an opiate
that he might slip away, and she had
given him one that he might not.

Corn-Fottder.

Persons who condemn corn-fodder as
innutritious" are invited by Paschal
Morris, of the Practical Farmer, to
consider the way of a practical dairy
man, "whose butter is excelled by no
other in Philadelphia Market" and
who "pretty much sustained fifty eight
cows on sowed corn from the middle of
last July to the middle of October, and
that, too, the product of three acres"
He estimated that he took ninety tons
of this innutritious" substance from
the space indicated, aid he knows that
his cows did not fall off in their milk
during these three months OF drouth,
but that some increased the flow, and
that the butter was fully up to the stan
dard.

pension from command for a period of
two years. Had all the passengers per-

sumo his punishment would have been
doubled to four years. Every circum-
stance of the disaster, in the opinion of
oil men competent to judge, goes to show

Scientific Items.

The sadness of the ocean, quality
which probably preserves its waters from
decay, at least within the tropics, is doubt
less supplied to its bed by the streams and
rivers, which washing all soluble particles
from the soil, whether saline, alkaline, me-
tallic or acid, hurry with them to the sea;
while evaporation takes up from the sea
and carries back to the land, only perfect
ly pure water. Hence the sea is like u
great cauldron over fire, into which are
poured waters saturated with all soluble
material while evaporation, in the form of
steam, takes away only pure water, and
thus the waters in the cauldron must con-
stantly thicken with increasing impurity.
Salt is universal in the crust of the earth,
and extremely soluble, hence its abundance
in the waters of the ocean. For a like rea-
son all large inland bodies of water with
out m outlet are salt, as the Caspian Sea,
the Dead Sea and Great Salt Lake.
The currents of the ocean are similar
to those in the air above it. The warm
surface, UBTu fiomu aH u raJliaG, alq'ecytba
within the trigid zones il sinks down and
returns along the bottom of the sea now as a
cold current to the tropics, there to be
again warmed and sent back along the
surface. The Gulf stream is the Atlantic
surface current on its way to the North.
Its moderating influence on the climate of
the coasts along which it flows is its striking
charact eristic; without it, it is supposed the
climate of the English Islands would be
scarcely tolerable; moreover, saturated with
oxygen, as it finally sinks to the bottom OF
the sea, it there sustains world oflife on its
return which otherwise could not exist.

That many kinds of plants are benefited
by the application of light dressings Of
common salt Chloride of sodium), none
who have investigated the subject can
doubt. The nursery-men ofSyracuse found
it impossible to grow good plum or ounce
trees, until they took to dressing their
land with the refuse salt Of the Salina salt
works, since when they have grown good
stock.
A friend of ours in Palmyra last year
scattered around pear tree, in row of
trees, shovelful of those refuse salts, which
resulted in a much greater growth Of that
tree than of the others. We saw the tree
few days since, and it is outstripping the
Others as much this year as last. Where
the pile of salts lay last year, sown corn is
growing, and just where the heap lay the
corn is twice as large as elsewhere.
The question very naturally arises,-In
what way does salt benefit the plant, di-
rectly or indirectly There is small per-
centage ofichloride of sodium in plants, but
probably no more than great majority of
soils are capable of furnishing, so that the
greater proportion of the beneficial results
of manuring with salt is due to the effect
of salt decomposing the soil and freeing
other ingredients Of plants.-American RI

Corn Fodder for Mich Cows.

Nearly every farmer and dairyman knows
that the fodder from corn is one OF the
most valuable means for wintering COWS.
Very few, however, do know ifthat is fed III
such liberal quantity that the animals are
obliged to cat only the blades and husks, it
is the only really nutritivc rough feed that
can be given. 1t is also fact that corn
sown broadcast is not so nourishing when
dried as that which has been more exposed
to the air and sunlight; for the simple
reason, that being grown so closely togeth-
er, and so much shaded, they contain but
little except simple fibre and water. The
solid matter of the corn stalks is composed
of starch, sugar, gum and woody tibre.-
Experiments have shown that the differ
ence amounts from eight to ten per cent
When field corn is cut for fodder and
also for grain, it should be done just after
the corn is fairly glazed, if flint corn, and
lust about the time the dent is forming, il
of the ordinary Western varieties. Thus,
while you do not get quite so large yield
of corn in shelled bushels, you will receive
the full difference in the value of fodder,
for corn is engaged during its life, in stor-
ing up carbon, in the shape of sugar, gum,
starch, etc, to be used at the proper time
in forming the seed. This accomplished,
the plant dies and is valueless as food for
animals except the seed itself. The good
farmer wanting fodder, cuts it at the prop
er time to net the best results in both these
products. The grain farmer lets it stand
to perfect the grain naturally. and husks
directly from the stalk.
Many dairymen who SOW or drill corn
exclusively for fodder make the mistake of
cutting it too young. 1t should never be
cut even for soiling until the ears have
formed, or about the time the inforescence
is over. For Winter feeding, without
husking, it should be allowed to stand I'M
til the grain is half grown. Then the ear
| and stalk contain the maximum nutritlve-
ness To those who have insufficient hay
there is no cheaper plan of supplying rich
food for COWS giving milk in Winter than
corn fodder. To have it in the best condi-
ton, however, it should be placed in large
compact shocks carefully tied in order to
protect it from the influences OF the wealth

to represent general oceanic conditions,
and to contain depths nearly, if not quite,
as great as the other ocean basins of the
world, although but little is known, it is
true, in this respect of the Indian, Atlantic
and Pacific seas. The general soundings
would indicate that the average depth of
| the Atlantic bed is not much more than
| $4,000 feet, and there seem to be few de.
pressions deeper than $4,000 or 10000 feet,
little more than the height of Mount
Blanc.
DR.. Thomson sums up the general results
ofthe Atlantic soundings as follows In the
| Arctic Sea there is deep water reaching to
| 5000 feet to the West and Southwest of
| Spitzbergen Extending from the coast
of Norway, and including Iceland, the
Farce Islands, Shetland, and Orkney, Great
| Britain and Ireland and the bed of the
| North Sea to the coast of France, there is
| a wide plateau, On which the depth rarely
reaches 5000 feet, but to the west of Iceland
and communicating, doubtless, with the
deep water in the Spitzbergen Sea- a trough
500 miles wide, and in some places, nearly
10000 feet deep, curves along the east coast
of Greenland. This is the path of one of
the great Arctic return currents. After
sloping gradually to depth of 5000 feet
to the Westward of the coast of Ireland in
latitude SO deg, the bottom suddenly dips
to the depth Of 10000 feet at the rate of
about 10 to 10 feet in the 100; and from
this point to within about 200 miles of the
coast of Newfoundland, when it begins to
shoal again, there isa vast undulating sub
marine plain, averaging about $4,000 feet
in depth below the surface-the telegraph
plateau"
A valley about five hundred miles wide,
and with mean depth of $4,000 feet,
stretches from off the southwest coast of
Ireland, along the coast of Europe, dipping
into the Bay Of Biscay, past the Strait of
of Gibraltar and along the west coast Of
Africa. Opposite the Cape de Verde Is
lands it seems to merge into slightly
deeper trough, which occupies the axis
Of the South Atlantic, and passes into the
Antarctic Sea. A nearly similar valley
curves around the coast of North America,
about 10000 feet in depth off Newfound
land and Labrador, and becoming consid-
erably deeper to the Southwark where it
follows the outline of the coast of the States
and the Bahamas and Windward Islands,
and finally joins the central trough of the
South Atlantic, off the coast of Brazil, with
depth of $4,000 feet.
