The yellow Ticket.

There was no difficulty In putting the
yellow ticket through last Saturday,
The bindmost man on the nominated
tseket beat the foremost independent
candidate over three to one. Unity of
action Wis achieve wonders. Organi-
cation is the key note of success. The
names OF good men were put forward
on che different Independent tickets, as
good men as those elected, but they
were all beaten alike. Wehope the new
Board will work zealously for the coed

Care of Horses in the Spring.

Many young horse will take his place
in harness at hard work at the pillow this
spring for the first time, and upon the
care and skill with which he is handled
for the next three months will largely de-
pend his usefulness for the remainder of
his life. If possible let him be worked at
first by the side of a gentle, well-broken
mate. Let his harness fit exactly and be
strong and secure in all its parts Wher-
ever it touches, and especially of the col
lar, pads, belly band and breast straps, the
leather should be soft, plant and clean
decoction of white oak bark may be
used with advantage on the parts which
are likely to become chafed, and an exact
adaptation of the collar to the shoulder
and neck is the best safeguard against in
jury. Remove all dirt from the collar
bearings and wash the shoulders at least
every day. Feed moderately and give a
bran mash once in three or four DAYS.
Offer your team water whenever there is
an opportunity. Founders come from
over-draughts after long abstinence from
either food or water. No horse ever be-
comes so warm but that lie may drink a
little water with safety, and it is cruelty to
refuse it for hours together in hot weather.
Do not oyer-task; clean with a brush
thoroughly every night, and bed down
with plenty of bright straw, as you value
the horses health or a sound sleep with q
clear conscience for yourself.-P1aarie

Roots as Manure.

IT has been found that the roots of a
good crop of red clover left in an acre OF
land after the removal Of the crop weigh
six thousand five hundred and eighty
pounds, or from three to three and a half
tons. The same examination gave the
weight Of an acre Of rye roots at thirty
five hundred pounds, and of wheat roots,
at thirty four hundred pounds. All of
this matter is of course valuable for the
use Of such crops as may be grown dur
ing or after its decomposition. The we'll
known superiority of clover as manur-
ing crop, however, is not due alone to the
greater amount Of organic matter taken
mainly from the atmosphere, which its
roots supply, but also to the position in
which this matter is deposited. The roots
reach deeply into the soil, and on their
decomposition they serve to draw moist
ure from the lower soil, and by the de
composition of fertilizing matter to a
considerable depth, they induce the de
scent of the roots Of other crops to a
point where they are much more sure of a
supply of moisture during dry seasons
than they could be if nearer the surface.
Then again, these deeply penetrating. roots
traverse parts of the subsOil not hereto
fore open to vegetation, and in their de-
composition they produce a chemical
effect on the inorganic substances that lie
along their courses, and help to render
them, too, serviceable for future crops

Hop Culture.

FIRST be sure to secure good quality of
the right kind of plants. The English
cluster stands far in advance of all, or any
other variety, both for productiveness and
quality Of hop. We should be as cautious
in selecting the variety of hops as we
would be of fruit trees, seeds, etc. The
English cluster hop can be prOftably
grown in any climate or soil that will pro-
duce any kind Of grain or potatoes
AS regards profit to the grower, [ say
first, at low average Of 1900 pounds per
acre, and at a low average price of forty
cents per pound the crop would bring 5000
per acre. The expenses Of cultivation and
harvesting are to be deducted therefrom
Some fix the expense Of production as high
as ten cents per pound; others as low as
five cents. The variation depends upon
the number Of pounds produced per acre,
as light crop costs nearly as much labor
as heavy yield.
My experience teaches me that an aver
age yield of hops can be grown at an ex-
pense not exceeding seven cents per pound,
making an expense, of $105 per acre; de-
duct this from the 5000 and the grower is
left in possession of a net profit of S495 per
acre.
To start with, the plants will cost about
S22 per acre. The next year the vines
need polling, which can be done at an ex-
pense of about $50 per acre. Many farm
ers have plenty Of poles upon their own
land which will cost them nothing but the
time and labor Of cutting and hauling
them. After the plants and poles are once
secured, there will be no additional ex-
pense in that direction for twenty years or
more. The first crop will, or should, pay
oil of
good hops sold readily at the growers
door for fifty and fifty-six cents per pound,
many of them realizing from $4,000 to
5000 for their hop crop. No wonder
they are the most jovial and happy lot oil
creatures on earth.-Cor. Rural NeW

TOads in the Garden.

ToADs often come to the surface in the
newspapers, and pretty soon we may ex-
pect them to come again to the surface of
the ground in search Of the summer in
sects upon which they exclusively feed.
We know gardeners, who certainly know
what they are about, who buy up all the
toads they can get, and they amply repay
their cost in the destruction of insects and
larvae
Many persons have loathing of this
really interesting but certainly not hand
some buto, the result of superstition, or
want of education. It is time we learned
that they cannot bite any more than a gar
ter snake, and if they could that the bite
would be equally as harmless. We sup
pose the fiction that they carry jewel in
their head is no longer believed, Shaks-
peare to the contrary Notwithstanding;
yet the latter is more true than the former
indeed it is half true. They carry two;
their eyes, at least, are as bright as any
jewels that ever sparkled in diadem
They are the most innocent of creatures
that ever ate indiscriminately anything
that had life that they could swallow that
came within reach. They are worth more
per head to the horticulturist than chick
ems, even allowing that chickens did not
ScfaIcn, anu 10 put our readers thoroughly
in good humor with these insect-devour-
ers, we reproduce the following story by
DR.. Harris:
He supposed the odor of the squash bug
(coreus T9istds) would protect it from the
toad and to test the matter he offered one
to a grave-looking buJo under cabbage.
He seized it eagerly, but spit it out in
stantly, reared up on his hind legs and
put his front feet on the top Of his head
for an instant, as ifin pain, and then disap-
peared across the garden in a series of the
greatest leaps a toad ever made. Perhaps
the bug bit the bitter. Not satisfied with
this, DR.. Fl. hunted up another toad, which
lived under the piazza, and always summed
himself in one place in the grass, and Of
tered him squash bug, which he took
and swallowed, winking in a very satisfied
manner. Twenty other fine bugs followed
the first, in a few moments, with no diff
Guilty or hesitation in the taking or the
swallowing, though from the wriggling
and contortions, it appeared their corners
did not set well within. The stock Of
bugs being then exhausted, colony of
smooth black Larvae was found on a white
birch, each about three-quarters of an inch
long, and over 100 Of these were fed to the

RECIPES, ETC.

Chronic Diarrhea. Take two quarts
Of new milk, one pound of loaf sugar; boil
down to one quart; after cooling, add the
yolk of two eggs; beat up fine; then add
one bottle of claret (near one quart; take
of this from one to two tumblerfuls each
day. ~ ID
Remedy for Group III One Minute
This remedy is simply alum. Take a
knife or crater, and shave or CRATE off in
small particles about teaspoonful of
alum; mix it with about twice the GUAM
titv of sugar or honey, to make it palat-
able, and administer as quickly as posi-
bile. 1t is said this, will give almost in
slant relief .ss
Picked Cherries. quarts cher
ries, three pounds sugar, three quarts best
cider vinegar, one ounce cloves, one ounce
cinnamon. Put spice in a muslin bag
and boil with the sugar and vinegar.
When this boils up for a few minutes add
the cherries, and boil till they are suffi-
GENTLY soft. An under ripe cherry is the
best. To prevent bursting, prick with a
pin before putting the fruit to boil.
Ashes for Wire Worms.-Some one
who appears to speak from experience,
says: "If you will drop small handful
vi dSllOS Oh CdCl1 Hill Vi GOTH, Lie WuC
worm will not touch it; it will not hurt
the corn, but is good for it; it will take
more time and labor to plant, but it will
pay. [ have known this tried where the
ground was full of them, and it never
fails, the ashes being strong and when
moist creates a I've that the wire worm
cannot bear.''
How to Peel Onions.-Few persons
can peel onions without shedding tears
over them. This serves to wash the
onions preparatory to cooking them. A
scientific cook has recently discovered,
however, a heater way of washing them
at the same time as they are being peeled,
and all without tears. 1t is, simply, to
nearly fill a deep pan with water, and to
peel the onions beneath it's surface. 1t is
a small discovery, but it will save oceans
of tears.
Cream Cake-Break one egg into a
teacup and fill with cream, one-half tea
cupful Of sugar, one and one-half teacup-
fuls of -four, one teaspoonful of cream of
tartar, and one teaspoonful of soda. For
the cream, take one teacupful Of sweet
milk, two tablespOonfuls of sugar, one tea
spoonful Of extract of lemon, and one egg.
Boil the milk, beat the egg, sugar and
lemon together and stir into the milk
while boiling. Bake in two round tins.
Let the cakes get nearly cold before spread
ing the cream between them.
