FOOD VS.. CLIMATE.
BY MRS. c. f. YOUNG, N. D.

The people of California, intent on money
making, seem to have forgotten the wide
difference between our perpetual springtime
and summertime, and the frozen, cold, six
months winter of the Northern and Eastern
States. Hence it occurs that the table hab-
its of the people of widely different climates
and States are very nearly alike.
We readily understand why the people of
Greenland drink train oil and maintain Wig
orous health.
In Wisconsin-winters- oily food
and fat pork are freely used, and those who
use them have clear complexions and rosy
cheeks.
To-day the woodchoppers of the Sierra
N vadas dispose of rashers of bac N with a
relish unknown to the people of the valleys.
The reason is obvious: the fatty food sus-
tains the relation to the warmth of the body
that oil does to the fame of lamp, or
wood to the fire on the hearth. Both are
heat producers. Both are burned; warmth
is the result.
When summer sunshine comes the fuel
for hearihstcne fires is withheld. A fire is
agreeabe-uncomforta Could food
be cooked Without fire through the no: n of
August and July, there would be many
more happy housekeepers than now.
If people would as carefully discriminate
in respect to the quality of food they use TO
feed the lamp of life, much suffering would
be avoided and many valuable lives pro-
Ionged. How anxious little children are for
strawberries and oranges! How much we all
crave the luscious tit-bits of acids and Sill
gar, compounded in the laboratory of Moth.
er Nature, penciled and painted in manner
superior to any possible touch of art, tempt
'ng our appei'es with fragrance superior
to any from fabled dishes of the blcst
The Divine Care best understood our ne
cessilies and the coalition on which vigor-
Gus lie could be maintained 1t is proven
by the fact that the seal aud whale in count
less numbers abide along the shore and coast
lines Of far northern exactly suited
TO the necessities of the people who inhabt
the barren land.
The hish mountains have deer and fish,
wild sheep and bear. The foothills have
succulent roots, nuts and berries The val
leys and plains of the world produce cereals
of every description. Where the lines eli
matte glide into each other, and we need
fires a portion of the year, we relish milk,
sugar, starchy food and butter. Those fam
lilies who observe this law of nature very
rarely have spring OF Summer fevers. Those
who do not discriminate; who do not make
changes in their food corresponding with the
changes of the seasons, have fevers, agues
and skin diseases, which trouble some and
are frequently fatal.
Why fatal" we will write in our next.

HYpRoPHoBIA.-An interesting paper on
hydrophobia was recently read by DR..
Charles P. Russell at the meeting Of the
Medical Society of the county Of New York.
He holds that it Is among ours and mon
grels, the Pariahs and outcasss Of dogdom,
the disease usually originates. and that these
should be unrelentingly destroyed. Muz-
zling is of no practical Importance. because
the disease is not confined to any particular
season. If anything. there is rather less
liability to it in the Summer. unless the
tendency be increased by this absurd and
cruel practice of muzzling. DR.. Russell
stated that there was singular eclecticism
in the disease in attacking only certain
persons out Of a number who may have
been bitten, and he intimated that imagina-
ton had much to do with such cases, al
though he had no doubt of the reality Of
the malady in other, though not numerous
instances.

BURLINGTON, VT, June 1. ls7i.
The sales Of lumber IN this market during the
month Of May show result more satisfactory
than was anticipated at the beginning Of the
month. They foot up 7,5Oo0D feet, which, in
comparison with other Eastern markets, we be-
lieve to he entirely in favor o: this, Under even
ordinary business activity this amount would have
been largely increased. There is still disposition
on the part Of the dealers to further reduce the
stock, rather than 10 pay prices which are held in
Canada. 1t is well-known that some efforts have
been made by Canadian parties particularly in
terested in the direction of Reciprocity II is now
currently reported that the possibility or probability
OF this coming to pass Consequently the duty on
lumber being removed is used by the lumber
manufacturers of Canada as lever to maintain their
prices, expecting themselves to reap benefit
thereby. 1t may be proper in this connection to
state that within few days, Of our senators
marked to the writer, concerning reciprocity, that
it was at a dead halt that Canada had made no pro
position as yet which wonld be accepted by our
government. With the present outlook for bushes:
in the States it is doubtless far better for the trade
that Canada parties hold prices firm, and that i'm
portations continue limited. Reportsifrom the Wes
repeatedly mention that present selling prices ART
not remunerative. and it is fact that some large
mills have shut down andwill not manufacture and
ship at present prices.
A call is issued for National Lumbermen's meet
ing at wlliamsport, Pa on the 23rd of the present
month. As the lumber business is next to that o
iron in this country it is deemed desirable that al
Association National in its character and object
should be organized. The lumber dealers of th
city will probably send representative.
