TIE attention of our many readers is
called to the attractive advertisement of
]. n. Harris & Co, advertising their
great and valuable lung remedy,
" "Allen's Lung Balsam." This balsam
has been before the public for ten years.
Notwithstanding this long period, it has
never lost one whit of its popularity, or
shown the least sign of becoming un-
popular, but, on the contrary, the call
for it has been const@ly increasing,
and at no previous time has the demand
been SO great, or the quantity made been
so large, as at this day. We earnestly
recommend its trial by any one who may
be afflicted with cough or cold, and
we warrant it to cure if directions are
followed. 1t is sold by all our city
druggists.

LATE CHICKENS THE BEST LAYERS. "A
correspondent of the Country Gentleman
writes After repeated experiments
during the past twenty-five years in
Matching chickens, 1 am fully convinced
that the fouls Matched in the month of
July makes far better layers than those
born at any other season of the year.
Early Matched chicks commence laying
in September, and continue until cold
January weather, when they discontinue
until spring. On the other hand, when
Matched in July or August, they begin
laying in February, and continro until
October. [ find July chickens will
average so to 75 more eggs yearly than
those Matched IN March. My method.
therefore, is TO heteh 100 chicks in Au-
gust for my own use. As soon as the
cocks can be selected from the pullets,
they are converted into pot-pie, giving
the pull is all the room. The pullets
are then well fed, and are soon large
enough to care for themselves.

is an old saying that shelter is feed.
S1le it is true that good shelter will
save large amount of food that stock
! would be compelled otherwise to con-
k&me to save life, yet it will not do to
hrnish only shelter, they must hove
food besides. But If we wish to save
one half or one-third of the food that

ing shelter. That is to say, an animal
exposed to the cold, storms, winds, and
weather. and compelled to sleep on the
cold, frozen or wet ground, viii require
at least one third more food to keep it
in good condition, than it would require
to keep it IN the same condition if in a
warm, dry shed or stable, Y here no such
exposure was experienced. As our
crops have been cut short by the drouth

A Vegetable CURIOSITY.

There grows in the low, sandy savan-
naS1pf North Carolina, near Whining
Il the dioncea nlusipuJca, or Venus
fy-trap 1t is of the vegetable king
dom, and feeds on flies, insects or
small animals 1t is aOative of that
locality alone, and is one of the great
est curiosities of the age It is said
this pla1o can beat the alligator in the
performance of catching flies. 1t is a
carniverous vegetable, and will not
flourish unless nurtured by meat diet.
The man1Nr in which this phenomenon
of nature captures its prey is thus de-
scribed Each leaf is tipped with an
appendage shaped like the open covers
of book, with the corners rounded,
and the edges fringed with stiff bristles,
This proves a deadly trap to every in
sect that alights on it, for instantly on
feeling the irritation it shuts together
as if by spring along the midrid, and,
interlacing the bristles, holds the luck
less victim tight until his struggles and
lie cease together But tins trick of
4 fly catching is not practiced merely for
wantonness. The strangest part of all
the proceedings is, as soon as the insect
is enclosed in this living prison, for nu-
merous minute glands immersed in the
texture of the walls, the saliva-like
liquid, a sort of gastric juice, is given
out that moistens and dissolves all its
c,,ft ,oaYta Which ara thor, faI-ar, iDfo
the system Of the plant by absorption.
When the nutritive portions of the in
sect have thus been consumed, the trap
slowly un.loses, and is ready for an
other insect. The process is repeated
with rapidity but once or twice, for, as
in all caTs where plants have the ca
pacity of motion, the sinews of the leaf
grow stiff with age, it loses its sensibil-
tiles. and gradually decayr>
