The Abuse Of Appetite.

The appetite is one of the least apnra
ciated of natures gifts to man. It is gen
orally regarded in this work. day world
as something to be either starved or
stuffed-to be gotten rid of at all events
with the least inconvenience possible
There are people who are not only glad
that they have been endowed with sound
healthy bodies, for which nature demands
refreshment and replenishment, but tbey

| that they are sustained in the usual man.
ner. The reason of this we are at a loss
to conceive. Everybody admires beauty,
| and there can be no true beauty without
good health, and no good health without
a regular and unvarying appetite. We
are disinclined to let appetite take any
| responsibility on itself. If we happen to
| consider it too delicate, we try to coax it,
perhaps stimulate it, with highly-sea-
soned or fancifully- prepared food. There
are times when this may seem necessary,
as in the case of person so debilitated
as to depend for daily strength on what
he eats. But usually, the cajoling proc
ess is a mistake. If the appetite of an
individual in fair bodily condition be &C.
casionally slender, it is no cause for
alarm, and it should be allowed to regu.
late itself 1t may safely be considered
natures protest against some uangression,
and ii is wise not to attempt coercion. At
certain seasons, as in spring and summer,
the appetite of even the robust is apt to
fail, and the relish for meats and heavy
food to wane. This is all right enough,
for animal diet in warm weather heats the
blood, tends to headaches, and is gener.
ally unwholesome, unless sparingly used.
On the other hand, fresh vegetables, ber-
ries, fruit and bread are cooling, correct

Summer Following and Fall0W Crops.

edly got their idea of allowing the land to
lie fallow once in seven years from the
ancient Egyptians by whom they were
enslaved. Their talows, however, did
not include the turning under of green
crops; for, even if the idea had occurred
to them, their implements of tillage would
not have allowed that perfect inversion of
the soil necessary to covering heavy
growths of vegetation. 1t is only since
the invention and subsequent improve
ment OF the modern plow that this has
been rendered practicable, and with it
the possibility of keeping the land shaded

tallOw. Even now the importance of
keeping the land shaded is not generally

manures and other fertilizers to keep up
the strength of the land, it is undenlably
true that with the many large farms III

quantity if no other cause to employ these
manureS 10 the exclusion OF other ana

a question for the farmer to decide II inc
land is to be kept up with manure alto
gether or with manure supplemented by
following. Near cities where manure Is
plenty, or where a sufficient amount OF
stock is carried to furnish manure we
should advocate this plan SO far as u
could be carried out Unfortunately all
cannot have their farms near cities; and
all cannot or will not carry stock sutfi-
cient to keep up the fertility of their cul-
tivated soil
The most practicable plan, therefore, Is
summer following, either alone or in con-
uection with manure. Where manure is
to be obtained n sufficient quantities,
corn, potatoes, etc, are undoubtedly the
most economical crops that can be en-
ployed to clean the soil of weeds. BY the
constant working early IN the season and
the perfect shade given later the soil is
kept in the best possible condition at the
least expense for producing other crops
in the rotation; and at the same time,
while clearing the soil from weeds, the
farmer is getting ample pay for the labor
bestowed.
In the summer fallow proper the land
must lose a season. It must either rest
entirely or else support only such crops

Prevention OF Sun-StrOke.

As THE heated term is rapidly approach.
ing, we give the following specific for
sunstrOke, which may save from illness
or death many whose occupation compels
them to be in the field or on the street.
About year since | saw in news
paper an account Of a case of sun.stroke,
written by the party himself. After sui
tering a long time from the attack, and
having to considerable degree recov.
cred, he experienced suffering even from
the rays Of the moon. This led him to
reflection that it was not altogether the
heat of the sun that produced prostration.
After much research, he discovered that
the injury came from the chemical ray,
and not from the heat ray. He was
guided to this by observing the fact that
a photograph could not be taken through
a hollow glass. Accordingly, he lined
his hat with two linings--one of orange
yellow to arrest the chemical ray, and one
of green - arrest the heat ray. Thus
prepared he went where the rays OF the
sun were most intense with perfect i'm.

skin over the skull being of the orange
yellow may assist in accounting for the

ment OF more valuable ones. To this end
the beginning should be made, if posi-
BILE, in autumn, by blowing the soil thor
oughly as soon as possible after the pre-
vious crop is taken off; thus letting the
soil lie exposed to the action Of air, water
and frost. In the spring SOW to some crop
that will terminate early in the seasons
Peas, inferior wheat, rye, or even chess,
since the crop is not allowed to 90 to
seed; anything that will cover the earth
quickly. When this crop has arrived at
a height OF two feet, or at least as soon as
the first bloom appears, turn it carefully
under not more than four to six inches,
aud Immediately SOW to corn, buckwheat,
hungarian, or other crop that will quick
! ly shade the soil. If the land is to be
sown to winter wheat the fallow crop
must be plowed under in season for seed
ing. AT all events it must be turned in
not later than the time of poisoning; or,
il corn, at such times as will enable it to
be properly covered. If the land is not
to be used until spring, SOW winter rye,
to be pastured in the fall and turned
under in the spring.
Thus you will have given the land
three or four plowings and will have had
worked into the soil two or three crops,
and, besides this, the soil will have been
kept shaded except during the winter
season, which Will have done good work
in breaking down and Gisintegrating the
soil.
| We think that too little importance has
been given to this question of shading the
soil. We have always believed, and have
practiced upon the belief, that naked

How Humming-Birds Fight.

If two birds foraging come together
they usually fight; one drives the other
away and then goes on feeding AS if
nothing had happened, Mr.. Gosse says:"If
two vervain humming-brds are about the
moringa-tree, one will fly off and suspend
himself in the air afew yards distant the
other presently shoots off to him. and
then, without touching each other, they
mount upward with strong, rushing
wings perhaps for 800 feet. They then
separate, and each shoots dagonally
toward the ground, like a ball from
rifle, and, wheeling around, comes up to
the blossoms again, and sucks as if it
had not moved away at all. The figure
OF the smaller humming-brds on the
wing, their rapidity, their arrowy course,
and their whole manner of flight, are en-
tlrcly those OF an insect: and one who
has watched the flight of a large beetle,
or bee, VIII have very good idea Of one
OF these troplc gems, painted against the
sky Again he says: 81 once wit
messed combat between two mango
humming- birds, which was prosecuted
with much pertinacity, and protracted TO
an unusual length. They chased each
other through the labyrinth of twigs and
tloWerS TIL, an opportunity occurring, the
one would dart with fury upon the other,
and then with loud ruStlng of their
wings they would twirl together round
and round until they nearly came to
earth. At length an encounter took
place pretty close to me, and perceived
that the beak of the one grasped the beak
OF the other, and thus fastened, both
whiricd round and round in their perpen-
dicular descent till when very near the
ground they separated; and the one
chased the other for about a hundred
yards, and then returned in triumph to
the tree Sometimes they would sus-
pend hostiltieS TO suck few blossoms,
but mutual proximity was sure TO bring
them on again with the same result. In
their tortuous and rapid evolution55
the light from their ruby necks would
now and then flash in the sun with gem
