Fall Flowing.

Norman Spur thus gives his views
upon this subject in the Duchess Farmer,
Another great improvement that seems
to be lost sight of is blowing in the early
| part of fall those fields which are intend.
ed for corn the next season and have lain
in grass several years. Some OF these adj
vantages are as follows, and to make sure
of all of them the land should be plowed
before the middle of September:
1. The land can be plowed cheaper then
than it can in the spring, because the
teams are kept cheaper, and you are not
SO much hurried with team work.
2. If the land is all cut up by the pillow
and turned over, which should always be
done, you get rid of all the worms, which
eat up large share of the corn on such
fields, except the wire-worms.
3. The crop is much easier to take care
of by having the land at planting time as
mellow, light and lively as field is in
September that was plowed in June, as
farmers frequently do for rye.
4. You get as much better crop of corn
by preparing the land in that way as you
do by preparing the land for rye by sum-
mer following.
5. You in this way are always sure that
the land is well cultivated for oats, and
will never need to plant the field two sea-
sons to get the land subdued, and only
get about one large crop.
g. If you intend to spread manure over
those fields, it is much better to have the
land plowed first, and then let the manure
be left on the surface, or narrowed when
you harrow before planting.
T. 1t is a wonderful sight easier and
pleasanter to let the land grow mellow
ITSELF by letting those old grass roots rot
and die on their own hook and at their
own expense, than it is for you to pillow,
harrow, and hoe, and hurry their decay in
a shorter length of time.
s. It is much easier to kill all those
grubs by blowing the land, so that they
never get there, than it is to be digging
them out of the corn and replanting all
the fore part of the season.
g. 1t makes farmer feel more cheerful
TO see every kernal of corn he plants
growing vigorously and healthily, unmo-
Tested by those grubs than he can be after
they have eaten one-half and are making
vigorous charge for the rest.
TO- If the second and third paintings
get ripe, there is no danger of soft corn
among the first planted, and then the land
is ready to seed one year earlier.
Now all the objections l know of are
these: /. You lose little feed in both
fall and spring which you would get. 2. If
you manure the field, it is harder work
for the team to haul it after the land is
plowed, unless you leave roads for that
purpose. Now if these two objections are
a majority over the other ten advantages,
then let your stiff old swarded lands lay
till late the next spring, and then raise
corn and worms together, till one over
powers the other.

The Teeth.

The great enemies of our teeth are
acids. A source of acid is the decompO-
sit:on of sugar in the m outh, which
changes to tactic acid The saliva of
the mouth in its normal con dition is
alkaline, and is an excellent preservati We.
If the enamel is smooth it furnishes no
lodging for foreign bodies, but if it is
rough, foreign matter accumulates and
turns to acid. This, having eaten through
the enamel, proceeds inward with a rapid
march, and hOllows the tooth in short
time if not arrested.
Extreme care should be taken that
acids do not remain in the mouth, neither
sugar nor other substances be suffered
to undergo decomposition there. The
greatest panacea for poor teeth is cleanli-
ness. Thoroughly brush the teeth, not
only night and morning, but always after
eating. An error frequently made in
using brush on the teeth, is that of
drawing it transversely across them, from
one side of the mouth to the other. This
practice long-continued will produce
transverse assures, which finally become
so deep that the teeth present an appear
ancs of having been filed into. This
transverse brushing also has the PERM
cious effect of forcing the mucus into the
interstices between the teeth. The teeth
should be brushed from above downward
and from below upward-never from side
to side. The inner surface should also be
as carefully cleaned, and care should be
taken that no particles of food are left in
the interstices.
Dark tooth powder should not be used,
because it works up under the gums and
discolors the edges. Pure soap is good
dentrifice. A tooth powder must, above
all things, be alkaline, and should con.
tain nothing capable of becoming sour,
such as the sugar Of milk, which is some
times used. Whenever tooth powder is
praised for rendering the teeth very white,
it should be looked on with distrust, since
it is pretty sure to contain some agent
that will attack the enamel. Tooth pow
der should be so fine grained that when
rubbed between the fingers no particle
can be felt.
AS the chief ingredient of tooth pow
der, there is nothing better than carefully
prepared oyster shell or carbonate of
magnesia. To flavor it, small amount
OF calamus root may be added, which has
good effect on the gums. Prepared chalk
mixed with a small amount of camphor
also makes good tooth powder.-.San

Among the many riumphs Of science
and al1 exhibited at the Vienna Exhibition
is an invention Of DIR. Marini for petrify-
ing corpses, which seems TO have proved
very successful. There was shown by the
inventor large plateau Of hard and pol
isied metal, the top slab Of which was
composed Of human remains, all petriiied
together in a solid block. The surface OF
the block had been planned and polished
so as to look exactly like marble. BY
merely seeing the strange product of mod
ern science it was impossible TO imagine
OF what il was composed. 1t was mis-
taken for an ordinary slab of marble.

at 5000 On an average, 100000 yards OF
carpet are turned out weekly. The num-
Der Of yards made in year are Al ,GOO,-

There is no moral difference between
"white" and "black" lies. We think a
great lie a great sin, and great shame TO
a man; but, after ALL little lies are much
more dangerous, because there are so
many Of them, and because each one OF
them is diamond pointed. And these
little, petty untruths, which are so small
that We do not notice them, and SO numer-
Gus that we cannot estimate them, are the
ones that take off the very enamel Of the

"A negro man of Monroe Co., Mo-, by
the name of Smith, certainly is one Of the
most remarkable of all the living curiOsi-
ties we have ever met with His entire
body is covered with white spots, from
the size of pin-h up; his arms from
the wrist TO the shoulder are OF alabaster
whiteness, as also are his legs from his
ankles to above the knees, while his en-
tire breast and neck, and portion Of his
back, is as white as any white mans.
His face, however, is Of ebony blackness.
This phenomenon was born and raised in
Monroe County, and during his child
hood he was unhealthy until arriving at
the age of fourteen, when the strange
transformation now taking place on he's
body first made its appearance. He says
that small white spots are continually APP
pearing on different portions of his body,
which gradually spread in size. With
his shirt removed he looks as spotted as a
leopard, and was most curious sight to
witness. He is now thirty-fve years old,
and if this change continues he will in
time come forth white man, so far as
color is concerned.
