likewise. Will not some farmers try the
experiment, and thus seek to diversity the
the products of that region.

war. The people are prosperous and con.
tented, hence this season nc emigrants are

left in former years, are returning. | re-

toms being violent coughing and
wheezeing or jerking in the sides
like a horse with the thumps.
Several died very suddenly, with
blood running out at the mouth
and nestrils. 4 had forty-two
head of hogs of my own. They
too all seemed to take the same
complaint. One died suddenly
and others seemed to be bad.
l went to my peach trees and
gathered a large amount of
sprouts and leayes.s j put them
In a large iron kettle and boiled
them one hour then thickened
with corn meal that had been
boiled to a thin mush. When
cool l gave half the same evening

them 8 feet in the ground and 8
feet apart in rows; if posts, notch
the top SO that a stringer will
lay secure; cut long poles strong
enough to hold up your straw;
cross these stringers with rails
far enough apart to allow the
stock to pull straw down through.
If plenty of straw, commence on
the west side and build up from
the ground even with the top OF
your shed, and then build over
your sled, thus forming a good
shelter and saving your straw. l

Invisible Vegetation.

An ordinary microscope re-
veals the fact that green mould
in cheese, Or that which gathers
on a pot of preserves when ex
posed to the air, is a vegetable
as much as a field of sweet pota-
toes. Minute as those rambling
vines must be, not to be. recog
nized as being anything more
than a green hue, they produce
seeds. These are floated off in
the atmosphere so as to take
root when lodged in a favorable
place for termination. But the
strangest thing about these in
visible seeds with which the air
is immensely charged, is there in
halaticn into the respiratory cells
of our lungs. 1t is now 1ully
believed by scme eminent scien-
fists that several forms of pull
monary diseases are due to their
presence in those delicate It's
sues. Irritation of the mucous
membrane of the tubes leading
into the lungs is speedily pro-
into the interior. If
long continued, especially by the
the lodgment of foreign matter,
inflammation ensues, and matter
forms, which, if a person has not
the ability to expectorate, ul
cerates from cell to cell till the
whole lobe becomes involved,
an opinion prevails that scores
of in visible vegetable growths
lodging on the sensitive sur
face of the lining membrane,
sprout and develop there, pro
ducing pulmonary irritation that
often terminates in a fatal con-
sumption By breathing pure
air in well ventilated rooms,
avoid the risk. : 9 y
