Aheen-ktIIing Dogs.

81 would like to keep sheep ON my
billy farm, writes correspondent,
"but am afraid of the dogs. Is there
any remedyl" There are three rene
dies: l. If there is tax on dogs in
your state, see that 1T is enforced in
your neighborhood. O. If there is no
dog law in the state, vote for no man
who will not pledge himself to do all
he can 10 have one enacted. 3. Let all
the sheep men in the neighborhood
form themselves into an association.
Let nothing be done to crafty per
sonal spite but if suspicious dog is
found proving about the farm, shoot
him. Then, If the owner can prove
damages, let the association pay them,
and repeat the process. City and vii
lage dogs must be taught TO stay at
home. They are often abused and
half starved, aud it would be mercy
to them to give them one good meal Of
mutton with a liberal allowance of
strychnine in it. The neighbors might
be told that this feast was provided
solely for visitors, so that they can
keep their dogs at home.
A good plan to adopt is, when q
sheep dies, dress and wash it with
water containing few tablespoonful
of crude carbolc acid. 1t will pre-
serve the meat for months. Cut II up
into joints and hang it mp, and you
will always have piece of mutton or
hand for hungry dog that may visit
you from the city or village or swamp
If this work is done Systematically anC
constantly, it will have a wholesom,
effect. II is rarely that we'll bred
and well-ted dog attacks sheep, and il
is not often that such dogs wander far
from home at night. Ii there are any
good dogs in the neighborhood, in
form the owners of the fact that you
have set trap for the half-starved
providers from the city, and that they
had better fasten theirs up at nigh
In this way no harw is likely to be
done

Lord KOughtOn On Mill.

The following is the conclusion of
the address Of Lord Houghton, Pres
ident of the Social Science Congress
lately held at Norwich:
1T seems almost disrespeetful to
speak now and here of Mr.. John Mill
in the summary manner the occasion
requires. BY the side Of the sover.
eigns and legislators who govern the
apparent aestnios and mould the ex-
ternal constitutions ot states, it is in
teresting to place the names Of those
to whom il is given TO mark the poch5
in the intellectual life aud moral histo-
ny Of nations. Such men must not on
ly be copious writers, but 10y style and
method must rvet the attention and
win the conviction of masses of man
kind. Such was the influence of Sam
rI Coieridgo on the generation OF
my youth, coloring with his
metaphysical Imagination not only
the philosophy but the theology and
even the politics of his time. Such in
my mature age has been the power of
Thomas Carlyle, stamping his moral
earnestness and rigid convictions OF
good and evil on our views of history,
on our estimates of greatness in men,
on our measure of the worth of
thoughts and things, ON our sense of
the functions of language and the du-
ties of expression. Such in these lat
ter days, has been the place Of John
Stuart Mill, in relation TO the logical
faculty, to the higher reason, and TO
the bold, critical application Of princi-

to fashion, even to the uneducated con
science. The questions submitted TO
the consideration of this society were
in great part those he desired 60 see
proved and tested, and though unwill.
ing to attend its meetings. and confer
ences, he expressed through its officers
his continual interest in its work and
his ardent sympathy with its success.
OF this he could hardly have given
more signal proof than his expression
of the political value he attached to the
services of our distinguished colleague,
Mr.. Edwin Chadwick, which in the
most public manner he estimated as not
only equal, but superior to his own. II
is agreeable to speak of such men TO an
audience, the majority of which belongs
to the town of Norwich. know no
provincial city adorned with so
many names illustrious in litera-
turo, the professions and public life.
Those of Taylor, Martineau, Austin
Anderson, Opie come first to my recol-
lection, and there are many more be
hind. And there is this additional
peculiarly of distinction, that these
ora for tba moot mart moi tba dpCioua-
tion of individuals, but of families num-
bering men and women conspicuous in
various walks of life. For one of them
] will ask you to permit me to pass
from the expression of public esteem
to that of private friendship, for one,
who, from a sick bed of twenty years,
still looks out at the world of action
with mind interested in all that
affects the well-being Of humanity. r

pIanting Fruit Treos.

Whether spring or autumn is the
best time for planting fruit trees, is a
vexing question. How it may best be
done is of most importance. Many
think the question of expense settled
by the cost OF the trees, yet every man
who does not spend double, triple or
quadruple the cost of the trees in
planting them, is making great mis-
take.
Nothing that is worth doing at all is
worth DOING so we'll as planting fruit
trees Wherever a tree is to be plant
ed the soil should be enriched to the
depth of at least two feet, and not less
than six feet across. This preparation
should precede planting at least u
month. No raw manure, or other sub.
stance liable to ferment, while decom
posing, should come in contact with
the roots. Don't hesitate TO postpone
planting one or two years, in order to
make thorough preparation. This is
the way TO get fruit quickly. Apple
trees properly planted often bear in
four years, and pear trees i'll six and
they never die prematurely, as do thou
sands planted in the slovenly fashion
that prevails.
The scarcity of trees, for a few years
past, has stimulated propagation to an
extent that we fear will lead TO low
prices, aud this i'll its turn to excessive
and careless planting in the future, as
in tho past Let us respect the feel
ings of our children's children, and in
their interest as we'll as our own, 'turn
over new leaf in the matter OF plant
ing fruit trees.

Draining Quickssnds.

The subject of draining quicksands
has recently been discussed In the col
umns of the New York Tribune. The
directions generally given by the cor
respondents of that paper have related
to the manner of making a sound arti-
fetal bottom on which to lay the drain
ing tiles. Our own experience in tie
matter has been considerable, and we
have never found this necessary.
These sands are quick only because
they are net, ana if the water can be
withdrawn from them they will form
the best floor that is posi-
BILE to secure in such land. For lay
ing tiles, the only thing necessary is to
deepen the drain very slowly As soon
as the depth of the water is reached,
let the drain be opened for that depth
its whole length; then, commencing at
the lower end, deepen by single
scoopful at a time, IN this way drawing
off the water slowly, and without at
any point gong SO deep as to have a
pressure of water from the soil at the
side. Opened in this way, little by lit.
tie, there will he no difficulty in secur-
ing good foundation, and in laying
drain in the most slippery quick
sands.

10 Renew Mushroom Beds.

When the mushrooms stop growing,
or rather when the bed is exhausted,
the manure is taken away in as large
Jumps as possible, and very carefully
placed under shed, aud every lump
or part of lump which is full Of white,
cottony threads, is placed on board
in dry garnet or other well sheltered
place, and is turned over occasionally
till perfectly dry, after which il is
good TO use as spawn. The spawn may
be kept for years, if not allowed TO get
wet. IL is as good after three or four
years as after three or four
weeks. II is very necessary to take the
manure away IN dry weather on ac-
count of the spawn, the least dampness
spelling it but when it has been ex-
posed TO u dry atmosphere for a day on
two, damp atmosphere does not iniure
il.
BY making spawn every time bed
rs exhausted and taken away, a good
supply of IL can always bc had, and OF
a better quality than what is generally
sold The rest Of the manure, although
not as good as before being used, ia
still an excellent fertilizer for garden
crops.
As soon as bed IL removed, another
one may be made in the same place
with new manure, aud the longer a
cellar or other ri lace has been used for
such purposes the better mushrooms
will grow, and the more the beds will
yield. The place will be full of myce.
lium, and mushrooms will spring up
everywhere.
II is easy 10 have mushrooms all the
year round by making q new bed every
month or oftener, so that when one il
exhausted, another begins 10 yield, etc.
For the first and second beds made, il
is necessary TO buy spawn from seed
dealers, but let il not be mouldy, else
no crop can be grown, II should have
a strong mushroom smell instead Of !
mouldy one, as is too often the cSse.
