If our factory had continued in opera

somewhat raised. As it Is, we do not
blush to show what has been done. Mr..
G. W. Morse, who has made the cheese,
has been entirely successful and given the
fullest satisfaction. Much praise is also
due 10 Messrs. Maltby and Rockwell for
their enterprise in starting the factory.
The same was begun too late in the spring

larger amount of milk, average cost per

what reduced. No attempt has been made
to compute the average yield of milk and
cheese 10 the COW. Too many have sent
milk but part of the season, to do this
with any interest. But, your Secretary
hopes to get from some of the daries q
statement of what has been done in the
way of milk or butter over and above

believes that he could thus collect some
facts that would also show that we have

To THE SUFFERNa.-An old retired
physician, who is candid enough to tell
the truth about progress, has declared
that the recent discovery by DR.. Walker,
of California, of his me iicine. He has
tested them thoroughly, in his own fam
lily, among his friends, and upon him
self; and he is driven to the conclusion
that they possess rare and unexcelled
curative properties. He says of them {:
"They contain no dangerous drug.
They never reduce the patient-never
render one liable to take cold-never
interfere with everyday business of life
never make their continuous use a
condition of cure, and are adapted to
even the most delicate organization.
They act as kindly on the tender infant,
the delicate female, or in6rm old age,
as on the vigorous and athletic system !;
exercising healthful effects upon every
blood vessel-on the brain, nerves and
lymphatics-on the blood, bile, gastric
juice, ETC., enriching impoverished
fluids, and imparting yigor to mind and

Lighting.

The length of flash of lightning is
generally greatly under-estimated. The
longest known was measured by M. F.
Petit at Toulouse. This flash was ten
and half miles long. Arago once
measured a series which averaged from
seven to eight miles in length. The
longest interval ever remarked between
flash and the report was twenty-five
seconds, which would correspond with
district of fourteen miles. Direct re-
searches have shown that storm is
seldom heard at greater distance than
from seven to ten miles, while the aver
age are barely heard over four or five
miles of. This fact is the more curious
as cannon may be distinctly heared
double or treble that distance, and in
special cases much further. During the
bombardment of Paris, in the winter of
1870, the Krupp guns, which had been
left over from the Exposition of 1867,
was heard at Dieppe, distance of
eighty-four miles. Arago states that
the firing at Waterloo was audible at
Creil, one hundred and twenty miles
distant.

Lands Which White Hams Foot Has
Never TrOd.
The cruisers engaged in watching
the expectation of iaborers from islands
of the South Pacific ocean fell in with
strange places and strange people. At
New Hanover, Capt. Simson, of her
majesty's ship Blanche, found men and
women very much in state of nature :;
he thinks that they had never before
been visited by white men. They were
Ignorant of the use of tobacco, and any
old pieces of paper were taken by them
IN preference to the usual trade articles.
Both men and women came along in
great numbers, and showed no fear.
They had little or nothing for barter
except spears. They appeared good
hundred, but are arrant thieves. A
party of officers landed, and except that
their pockets were picked were In no
way molested. Capt. Simpson, when
off the coast of New Britain, took an
opportunity OF perpetuating his name
and that of his ship. He found two
spacious bays or harbors with good an
chorage, land-locked, and sheltered
from all winds. One, which he has
called Blanche bay, has been formed by
the upheaving of three volcanic noun
tains called the Mother and Daughters !;
the lava poured down In past ages has
formed two points which he mentions
IS Point Sulphur and Point Bridges.
Simpson Harbor, about five miles long
and three wide, lies between Point
Bridges and the main land he believes
there is space, with from twenty to
twenty-five fathoms of water, for the
naVies of the world to anchor in.
About a mile south from Point
Bridges, with deep water round them,
are two remarkable sandstone rocks,
both standing on the same base, which
is about quarter of a mile in circum-
ference, and edged with coral, the gap
between them being covered by few
feet OF water. The largest of these
rocks is sixty or seventy yards in cir
cumference, and rises perpendicularly
to height of nearly two hundred feet,
and though there is not a vestige of
soil upon it, stunted trees cling here
and there to its perpendicular sides,
and on the small platform at its base
there are a few cocoanut trees. But the
most remarkable thing that is clustered
on the narrow ledge which surrounds
these rocks and which is partly under
water, is a village containing about two
hundred inhabitants, who evidently
support themselves by fishing. Many
of these houses are built in the water
on piles. They had numerous canoes
moored around them. Capt. Simp-
son has named those rocks the Beehives.
They form an additional protection to
Simpson Harbor. He found in the Nj
garik group of islands only one inhab-
tied, and the people have a short his
tory. There are about a hundred of
them, and no less than sixty are chill
dren. The people say that about forty
years ago captain from Sydney took
the island and destroyed the inhabit-
ants, or nearly every soul some years
after that man named Paddy came
with some natives of Ponope island and
settled there, claiming the island as his
own, and the population has since rap
idly increased. What has become of
Paddy Is not stated. London Times.

THE attention of our many readers is
called to the attractive advertisement of
J. N. Harris & Co., advertising their
great and valuable lung remedy, ''Al-
lens Lung Balsam." This balsam has
been before the public ten years. Not
withstanding this long period, it has
never lost one whit of its popularity, or
shown the least sign of becoming IN
popular, but, on the contrary, the call
for it has been constantly increasing,
and at no previous time has the demand
been so great, or the quantity made
been SO large, as at this day. We earn
estly recommend its trial by any one
who may be afflicted with a cough or
cold, and we warrant it to cure if direc-
tions are followed. It is sold by all our
drug gists.

MEANING OF THE HANDs.-Profoupd
study has led NJ. de Arpentigny to the
conclusion that the hands represent
three types. Those who have fingers
with pointed tips are possessed of a
rapid insight into things are extra
sensitive and pious, impulsive. This
class belongs 10 the poets and artists.
To the "square tops" belong scientific
people sensible, self-contained char
acters, professional men. The spade
shaped tops-thick tips, with little pads
of flesh on each side of the nails-are
materialists, commercial, practical, with
a high appreciation of all that tends
to bodily ease and comfort. Each fin
ger,ssno matter what the kind of hand,
has also one joint-that which is near
est the palm-Fepresenting the body /:
another-the middle-the mind, and the
top the soul. Each of these divisions
corresponds with one of the types above
given.

PUNoHNa HOLES IN STRAPs.-The
punching of holes through the various
straps of a harness for buckle tongues
and for attaching the buckles, is a mat
ter of considerable Importance, and
does not, as a rule, receive the atten-
ton that it should. The old method of
punching them from the upper or grain
side of the leather has been generally
abandoned by the manufacturers of
fine work, it being deemed injurious to
the leather. The principal objection
arises from the liability of the grain of
the leather to crack from the strain on
the buckle-tongue, and to be the cause
eventually of the leather tearing, as it
causes such a crease where the tongue
catches that it Injuries the texture of the
leather, and making it tear the hole
more or less. In addition to this, if the
leather is very strong, the tongue of the
buckle is sure to be bent out of shape.
All these objections can be obviated by
punching from the under or flesh side
of the strap, and by using punch the
long sides being parallel with the length
of the strap. The punch should be set
at an angle of about twenty degrees,
cutting the hole at such an angle that
the buckle-tongue will rest on it with
out throwing any strain on the inside of
the leather. Some object to punching
the hole from the under side on account
of It's forcing the grain out, and thus
disfguring the outside edges of the
hole. This can be corrected, however,
by driving the punch through the hole
from the outside, which will cut away
the slightly turned edge of the grain
aud set it down smooth and clean, It

IMPURE WATER. attention
can not be too often called TO the dam
ger of using impure water in house
holds. The origin of typhoid fever
which so frequently runs through fam
lilies in city and country, is oftener in
wells and springs than is supposed. In
cities it is easy to understand, when
aqueduct water is not supplied, how
wells may become contaminated, but for
many it is not so easy to see how wells
in the country, among the hills or in
the green valleys, can become so impure
as to be sources of disease. Since the
general introduction of aqueduct water
into large cities, typhoid fever has be.
come more common in the country than
in the city, and this disease is certainly
zymotic, or one which results from a
poison introduced into the blood.
Wells in the country are very liable to
become contaminated with house sew
age, as they are generally placed, for
convenience, very near the dwelling,
and the waste liquids thrown out upon
the ground find easy access by percola-
ton through the soil to the water. The
instances of such contamination which
have come to our notice, and which
gave rise to fevers, are numerous. The
gelatinous matter, which is often found
covering the stones in wells affected by
sewage, is true fungoid growth, and
highly poisonous when introduced into
the system. It is undoubtedly con-
cerned in the production of typhoid
fever. How it acts it is difficult to de-
termine, but it is at least conceivable
that the spores of the fungus may get
into the blood and bring about changes
after the manner of yeast in beer.
These spores, as is well known, develop
rapidly by kind of bubbling process,
and but little time passes before the
whole circulation becomes filed with
them, giving rise to abnormal heat and
general arrangement, called fever.
These fungoid or confervoid growths
are always present in waters rendered
impure by house drainage, and great
caution should be used in maintaining
well waters free from all sources of pol
luton.

THE ACTION OF ANTIsEPTIC SUBsTAN-
cEs UPoN VIRUs.-M. Davaine has re-
Gently examined the following SUBJ
stances, which he classes in regard to
their power SIS antiseptics in the sub
Joined order Ammonia, silicate Of
soda, ordinary vinegar, and carbolic
acid; then cazstic potash, chloride of
oxide of sodium co, hydrochloric acid,
permanganate of potash, chronic acid,
sulphuric acid, iodine. The power of
ammonia, of vinegar, and of carbolic
acid being represented by 1000, that of
iodine would Ibe by 1-12,000. Iodine
should therefore be considered as the
best antiseptic to be employed in the
treatment Of maladies such as malig-
nant pustuIe, boils, carbuncies, and the
like, when, not having become local
lied under the form of simple pus-
tuIe, they had taken up a certain extern
sion. Injections of 10000 of iodized
water are recommended.
