Noxious Gases in Wells.

Lives are frequently lost by
noxious gasscs in wells
This may be prevented by
the adopting of the following
very simple means: Take
some pieces of carpet, or COM
mon sacks, and make them
in a loose bundle, nearly as
large as the area of the we'll.
Inclose it in a brick to give
weight, and attach to the bum
die a rope of sufficient length
to reach to the bottom of the
well. Throw this bundle
down the well, and haul it up
again as quickly as possible.
Repeat this operation rapidly
for ten minutes and the at
mosphere of the we'll will be-
come quite innoxlous, as may
be proved by letting down a
lighted candle. The bundle,
as is easily understood, car
ries before it a quantity o1
fresh air from the surface,
and this, of course, displaces
the foul and dangerous all
from the bottom.

Milk as a Medicine.

Milk, it is now found out,
a pint being given every few
hours, will check violent
stomach ache and incipient
cholera. Only you mustn't
boil it, but heat it sufficiently
to be aggreeably warm. Ty-
phoid fever, cruel as a tiger,
is a disease for which the doc
tors have never been able
to do much. Now we are
told that milk is an excellent
medicine to give in such
cases. 1t nourishes, pro-
notes sleep, wards off delir-
um, and soothes the bowels.
The patient both in typhoid
and in scarlet fever is to have
all the milk he wants.
What with Alderney and
other dairies, and the new
medical discoveries, this
peaceful fluid is really looking
up.

Lye for Apple Trees.

We notice a great deal Of
questioning as to whether
strong lye from wood-ashes
can be used as a wash for de
stroying insects on apple
trees. We wish to state
that we have an orchard upor
which we have used strong
I've washes for over thirteen
years.
The application was made
every year, between the mid
die of May and the 1st Of
June, in order to destroy the
bark lice. 1t has accomplish
ed fully the purpose for which
it was used, and the orchard
is considered the finest col
lection of apple trees in the
town. The trees are thrifty,
bear every year, and are al
most entirely free from bark
lice Correspondent Prairie

Lime in Crops.

There is said to be carried
off from the soil nine pounds
of lime in twenty-five bushels
of oats, and fifteen pounds in
thirty-eight pounds of barley.
There are thirty-fVe pounds
to two tons of rye-grass, one
hundred and twenty-six
pounds to two tons.of clover,
and one hundred and forty
pounds in twenty-five tons
of turnips, and two hundred
and seventy pounds in nine
tons of potatoes. Some soils
contain abundance of lime fol
a thousand years, while others
require an occasional applica
tion of lime as a fertilizer.

The Oranges.

The Buffalo Express says:
"There can be little doubt
that the Changers system
will be spread to the East.
1t is to be hoped the mana
gers will get rid Of the fium-
merry in the way of rituals,
grips, passwords, ETC., with
which it is now encumbered.
Then, they would make each
school district the basis of a
Grange, and they will be much
more likely to meet with a
permanent success than if
they try to build up large,
magnificent associations, hav-
ing their centers in the cities
and villages. The school
house would furnish a con.
venient place of meeting to
begin with; afterward they
could place it by a small,
pleasant, nicely furnished
building, if they desired. A
social meeting once a week.
with business meetings as
often as might be necessary
would tend to give the rura.
population a better opportuni
ty for improvement and en-
.ioyment than they have evel
had in this or any other coun
try. That the tendencies art
all in that direction is plair
to every one who surveys the
whole field of our nationa
life and observes the thousand
and one efforts constantly
made by the working classes
to improve their condition
not only pecuniarily and 20
litically, but socially and IN
tellectually."

These suggestions are legitimate
When men feel, however, they forget
right. but the same law is in force
now that has always prevailed. If
we fail to exert our power in subor-
dination to the power above, it must
come to an end, for everything that
doth not come from God must come
to naught.
