HAY AND CARRoTs.-Taking good
English hay at 100, the nutritive equiv
alent in carrots will be about 800.
Boussingault makes it $50; that is, it
will take three hundred and eighty-two
pounds of carrots, according to that
chemist, to give the same amount of
nutriment as one hundred pounds of
hay. Other chemists make the practi-
cal difference little less. Block states
the nutritive equivalent 366, Petri 250,
Meyer 225, Thaer 800, Pabst $50, and
so on. The general average will be
found to be not far from 800 that is,
three pounds of carrots to one of good
English hay.
The swede or ruta baga has about
the same nutritive value as the carrot.
The practical difference is very slight,
and it is fair to state it as about three
to one.
But we do not think the comparative
nutritive value expresses the whole ad-
vantage of the use of roots. They do
something to promote the general health
of animals, keep the system open, and
fed judiciouly in connection with hay,
they do something toward converting
the hay practically into green grass,
that is they help you to turn January
into June, and that is 'big thing"
as the boys say.-Massachusetts Plough
man.

A gentleman in this city, says the
St. Louis Democrat, has invented a
little machine for removing the shells
from chestnuts and peanuts. 1t is
made to fit over the nose; the breath
passing from the nostrils furnishes the
motive power; the nuts are dropped in
the hopper on top, and the meat or I'M
shelled nut is dropped into the mouth
of the eater below. 1t is noiseless in
its working, and gentlemen or ladies
who have been debarred from attending
Theodore Thomas's concerts, or church
because they were not allowed to
"crunch" nuts, can now experience a
new pleasure.

The latest joke at Brigham Young s
expense is perpetrated by a Pennsylva-
mia paper, which says, "Some chap
thought he would play joke on Brig
ham Young, so he gained access to the
list of his wives, and added lively seven
names thereto - Mary Jane Young,
Josephine Ann Young, Sarah Melinda
Young, and so forth. The next time
Brigham called the roll, twenty-seven
didn't answer to their names, so he con-
cluded that they had died since last
roll call, and putting few more inches
of Grape on his hat, he looked as sad as
possible, but has not yet detected the

THE HOME INSTINCT IN ALICE AND
PHOEBE CARY.-The secret OF the rare
material success which attended them
from the beginning is TO be found IN
the fact that from the first they began
to make home: also in the tact that
they possessed every attribute OF char
acter and habit necessaryto the making
of one. They had an unfeigned horror
of :. boarding" Any friend of theirs
ever compelled to stay in a boarding
house was sure of an extra portion OF
their commiseration and sympathy. A
home they must have, albeit it was up
two flights of stairs. To the mainten-
ance of this home they brought indus
try, frugality, and hatred of debt.
If they had money but to pay for
crust. then crust must suffice. With
their infexible integrity they believed
that they had no right to more, till
they had money to pay for that more:
Thus from the beginning to the end
they always lived within their income.
They never wore or had anything bet
ter than they could afford. With true
feminine instinct, they made their little
''fat'' take on at once the choicest look
of home. A man genius seeking the
city, as they did, of course would have
taken refuge in a boarding house attic,
and :" enjoyed himself in writing
poems and leaders amid dirt and for
lornity. Not so these women-poets.
l have heard Alice tell how she papered
one room with her own hands, and
Phoebe how she painted the doors,
framed the pictures, and frightened
up" things generally. Thus from the
first they had home, and by the very
magnetism that made it bright, CHEEKY,
in truth a home, they drew around
them friends who were their friends no
less till they breathed their last sigh
One of these was Mr.. Greeley. He
always cherished for these sisters three
the respect and affection which every
true man instinctively feels for the true
woman who have their being within the
circle of his life. In their friendship
one religious faith, kindred pursuits,
mutual friends, and long association,
strengthened and cemented the frater-
nal bond to the last.-Mary Clemmer
Ames.
