HUNTS ABOUT HOUsES.

Many houses, from the mansion to the
cottage, are unwholesome for some of the
following reasons:
l. Damp Easements. u IA n, ,---
z. Cesspools and foul drains within the
basement.
8. Rotten timber in floors and skirtiDgs
and tainted Wallpapers. rs-
4. Kitchen sinks in improper places and
unventilated. .--.--..-,.----.s,-
5. WAterciosets in improper places and
uBventilated. alat 4 q h
6. Rooms without adequate means for
ventilation.
Z. Wster-cisterns and pumps in improp-
er places, and so the water is contami-
mated.
Houses are also unwholesome from per-
sonal dirt, personal carelessness, and per-
sonal neglect. As when:
l. Rooms are not sufficiently cleaned.
2. Carpets are left down too long and
never swept. Isl
3. Windows are seldom opened from the
top. l .t
4. Closets are dirty, neglected, and with
out ventilation. ..--
8. Dirty beds are unmade and are also
shrouded Oy dirty hangiDgs.
6. Dirty wardrobes and dirty clothes
closets.
Z. hooks, corners, ard shelves which are
never busted. .r-
Persons who are about to build dwelling
houses should have the following sugges-
lions in mind:
The subsoil beneath house should be
naturally dry, or it should be made dry by
undertaking. -
The ground floor of house should not
be below the level of the land, street, or
road outside.
A site eXcavated on the side of q hill or
steep bank is liable to be dangerous. As
external ventilation may be detective, and
the suhsoil water from above may soak to-
ward and beneath such houses, middens,
| ashpits, cesspools st the back must faint
such Easements.
| The subsol within every basement
should have a layer of concrete over it.
Cess pools, cesspits, sink holes, or drains
should not be formed within house base
ments. .. --.
| The ground around dwelling houses
should be paved, tagged, asphalted, cover.
ed with concrete, or be prepared ana grav
eled.
Outside channels should be in good ord
er ard be regularly cleaned.
House caves should be guttered and
spoutsd. ..

To the Union and American:
BAGDAD, April Is, lS73-We are hoop-
ing things up lively in these parts of the
vineyard. Our farmers are pretty well all
done planting corn. Their first planting is
up or has been, but the cut worms have
more than salivated it. AS fast as it greens
through the clods they cut it down. They
are worse in clover land than stubble.
Where the land has been in clover q few
years, 1t is an impossibility to get stand
for them. l notice in the UNION AND
AMERICAN Of April IL correspondent re-
commencing salt as being preventative to
their cutting down young corn by putting
over each bill tablespoonful. We will
cave to apply the remedy or give up the
ieId. We disdain the idea of being whipped
out by them and lose all our labor and
corn toe.
Our wheat is still looking very well,
though rather thin on the ground to weld a
great deal per acre. Our farmers don't
SOW their wheat thick enough of late years.
Winters have become so hard that they
will have to SOW almost double the amour
of grain per acre they have been in the
habit of, to get stand sufficient to justify
them TO harvest. Saving grain where it is
thin on the ground is very hard work and
don't pay.
We have a good school going on at Diff
cult, on Defeated creek, conducted by Miss
n. g. Young, Of Dixon Springs. She is a
good teacher, conducts her school well,
gives general satisfaction to all patrons and
is beloved by all her students. We have a
good school house at that place, amply fur
nished with coed seats with desks attached
to each one, good stoves, heaters, etc, suf-
! ficient to accommodate $50 students, built
| by the community at q cost Of
several hundred dollars. And now we
are earnestly engaged in building
Masonic Hall at same place. The work
has been let out by building committee
The mechanics will go to work. Think
they will have the building completed by
1st of October next.
This is the second trial we have made tt
build us Masonic Hall at this plsce. Some
| five years ago we made trial to raise
means to erect US hall, but there being
some opposition to it, we failed; but the
| people In this vicinity now seems to havt
their eyes open, can see the error which
they have been laboring under, and are
willing to turn from it. We have now a
this place good church house, good school
house and hope soon to have Masonic Hall
Then we will have good citizens, gooC
neighbors and good society. Where evel
| you find these ms .itutions in a county in {
prosperous condition, there you will fird
religious, moral aud refined people.

PLASTER AVN POTATOES.

According TO Mr.. Compton, author Of the
prize essay on the cultivation Of The potato,
very remarkable results are obtained from
plaster by busting the vines with it as soon
as they are they are through the soil; again
Immediately after tho last blowing aud
hoeiEg, and at intervals through the whole
growing season. The drst application may
be light, the second heavier, and after that
more bountifnl, say 209 pounds to the acre.
Il renders The plants less palatable TO the
insects, and appears to be fatal to many of
to fungi family. The vines retain
bright lively green color, and the tubers
continue swelling until growth is stopped
by the frost; besides, potatoes thus grown
are so sound and free from disease as to be
easily kept for the spring market, without
loss by rot. Mr. Compton says he has
seen field, all planted with the same va
riety, at the same time, one-half Of which
had received no plaster, where the yield
was but 90 bushels par acre, and many rot
ted, while the other half, to which plaster
had been applied, yielded 300 bushels per
acre, and not an unsouud one among them.
