Kneading Bread Objectionable.

medical correspondent OF the Boston Globe
puts forward the theory that the present meth
cd OF Discriminating Is mainly instrumental in
communicating many diseases and in producing
many deleteriOus effects which do not assume
the form of positive disease He says:
That impurities of the blood are worked off
through the skin is a fact we'll recognized
that SPECIFIC diseases are treated by this means
and it Is even proposed to eliminate from the
system the virus of hydrophobis by a process of
sweating. The pores of the hands are more open
than those of many other parts of the bofy.
The constant perspiration of the hand In warm
weather, even when unexercised, will remind
every one of the fact. When the hand is exer-
cised, IL perspires freely. The present process
of kneeding bread is descidedly Objectionable at
any time, but in warm weather, when the per-
SEPARATION Is in constant flow, ii Is an undoubted
means OF Introducing into the most universal
article ofdiet the impurities and too fre1uently
the seeds of positive disease from the BODY of
the person making the bread. How MANY per
sons eat bread without so much as knowing who
makesSt, or whether the maker is infected with
diserse or not? 1t is not a pleasant consdera-
ton, but an important one. In the hard eyer
else OF kneadiD of bread and pastry, perspira-
ton, and all of those impurities of which IL il
designed to free the system, are constantly ex-
uding from the skin and are mixed with the
bread. 1t is no security that the hand is ex-
ternally clean. The cleaner the skim the freer
the preparation. What ill effects result and
what diseases are communicated in this way
can be learned only by experiment and close
siderep and that some improvement may be de-
vised upon the long estsblishe bat Objectionable

Under His Own Crane Vine

As is always the case after very dry summers
eports come 10 us OF an immense crop of
grapes in the west. These facts are now so
closely connected, and are such a natural and
ascertained sequence, that one can prophecy
on crop OF grapes with more credit to his won
derful fOreknowledge, than on anything else
whatever.
In spite of all the talk about the mystery of
grape-culture, and the great grape failures of
America, we are coming to the conclusion that
where few simple precautions are taken the
grape is one OF the most certain crops to raise
AND we wonder more and more why eyery one
does not plant grape. Drive where one NAV
everywhere Is to be seen old walls, barns ont
buildings, rocks and waste places, which all
might be made beautiful by foliage, and be-
sides TINS beauty, the CREST pleasure of grapes
IN abundance. The only precautions are dry
soil and rich soil. In planting against a barn,
the vine should not be set on the sides whara
the water drops from the roof, but on the gables
ana as the vines grow, the branches should be
led around over the water falling sides IL ia
best TO lead the main and strongest shoots along
the sides OF the wall or building horizontally
and tolerably low down, and lead up shoots
from this main stem to cover the building as
this will be more likely to insure foliage all over
the surface. Here, indeed, Is about all the art
necessary. II this Is neglected all the foliage
and fruit-bearing branches Will soon bs co2-
hned TO the upper portions Of the wall. STABLES
and horizontal wire can be fastened TO the parts
To be covered, and on these the vines be trained
every year after pruning, and as they grow In
the summer time. If the land is low against
the wall or building, it will paw 70 haul a load
OF earth out of which to make an elevation
on which to plant the vine, aud thus keep its
roots dry.
We suppose there must be something in the
various troubles said TO affect the vine. The
phyHorsrd no doubt eats the roots.-the otdtum
leeds on the fruit, and the erysiphs the leaves
There is the rot on the berry, and goodness onlv
knows what not. That each and all these pests
Dother the grape-grower there is no dOubs in
the world. On the other hand it seems clear
that dry roots, the results of dry seasons is a
great thing TO have. All may have it more or
less, no matter how wet the season may be-and
considering how numerous are the old build nos
and places to be covered, aud the ease with
which the plant may be grown, wa do not see
why any single American need fOrego the pleas
ure OF sitting under his own vine, whatever he
may care about his own "fig trees."-Gerstan-
