Eggs by Weight.

Easter has gone, and with the advancing
season eggs have cheapened, and we are
again reminded to urge change in the
system of selling them. 1t is altogether
fairer to sell and buy by the pound than
by the dozen. In this market eggs vary
in size so that one might, by sorting, sep
arate quantity of eggs into two lots, one
Of which would average say nine or even
ten to the pound, while the other might
average no more than seven Now
twelve dozen of the small ones will weigh
about 1415 pounds, while the large ones
will weigh about 2015 pounds, and that is
not a just basis for trade. To be sure it
may be said that general average corrects
irregularities, but where is the advantage
in trusting TO chance when so simple
remedy as the standard scale is at hand?
The adoption of this system is merely
question Of time, not only as regards eggs,
but as regards wood and other articles OF
common consumption. Time was when
dressed hogs sold SO much per animal
without regard to the size and condition,
but such rule would not work well at
present Perhaps, too, by the time eggs
are weighed, the pound of to-day will
have given way to a measure of weight
gagged to sensible and convenient deci
NAL system like that of the French. Such
q system, by the way, is lawful now il
people would only insist upon usingit. 1t
is taught to children in the best schools,
and generation hence the present com
plicated tables Of weights and measures
will be forgotten. - Christian Union.

Official statistics show that 260,S14
immigrants arrived in this country during
1874. OF these, z, 645 were professional
occupations 32, 4S2 skilled laborers; 101,-
31S of various trades and occupations, and
122, 458 of no occupation, classification
including women and children Some of
the minor divisions under the professional
head are interesting, as the notation that
there arrived billiard player, eques-
TRAN, letter carrier, omnibus car
rier, pensioner and bath keepers. Six
authors, 1873 actors, 100 artists and 381
clergymen came over.
The art of nursing Is being elevated.
The average pay Of monthly nurses in
New York is said by an Intelligent CORE
spondent to be fifty dollars, and sometimes
more. Male nurses demand from twenty
five dollars to forty dollars per week, and
there are nurses in the city who receive
ten dollars per day So ii is favored
class after all. No creature in this world
makes less account of money thanthe New
York millionaire when the shadow Of
death is hanging over him.

APETITIoN is before the Massachusetts,
Legislature praying for formal repeal
of the sentence Of punishment pro-
nouuced against Roger Williams by the
General Court of Massachusetts, Bay ia
the year 1886. The ground of the petit
ton is "that Roger Williams was ban
ished because of lis. advocacy of the
separation of church and State that that
principle has since been recognized as
correct, and has since been CT great
benefit to the United States, and, there
fore, that Roger Williams, its first advo-
cate, ought to be set right" Roger will
be compelled to admit that posterity is
disposed to do the square thing"

y To Preserve q Bouquet.

WHEN you receive bouquet, sprinkle
1t with fresh water; then put 1t into a
vessel containing some soapsuds, which
anourish the roots and keep the flowers
as good US new. Take the bouquet out
of the suds e tery morning and lay II side
ways in fresh water, the stock entering
first into the water; keep 1t there a
minute or two, then take 1t out and
sprinkle the flowers lightly by the hand
with pure water. Replace the bouquet
in soapsuds, u 4 the flowers will bloom
as fresh as when gathered. The soap
suds need to be changed every third day.
BY observing these rules, bouquet may
be kept bright and beautiful for at least
one month, and will last longer in very
passahle state; but the attention TO the
lair but fraii creatures, as directed
above, must be strictly observed, or the
blooming alone5" but will perish. -

TOp-Dressing.

THE editor of the Germantown Tele-
graph gives his experience with top.
dressing as follows:
We have practiced top dressing now
ing lands more or less as the manure
held out for many years, and have ap-
piled 1t with good success at all times,
from the taking off of the grass in sum-
mer until the growing crop of the next
season warned us to stop. Here at the
North we like to apply 1t as soon as pos.
sible after the crop comes of, to protect
the roots OF the grass from the hot, dry.
ing sunshine. This for upland meadows.
For low, moist lands later. in the season
it will probably be equally and perhaps
more beneficial. We prefer fine well
rotted manure if the supply is sufficient,
but compost or even common earth pays
well for spreading on meadows. We
have piece of upland meadow that
has produced excellent crops of grass
for twenty-eight summers, all by
occasional top-dressing. With the same
management we have no doubt it will
produce good crops of hay, but we don't
know how long. Here is no expense of
reseeding, no smoothing down and clear
ing of stones. Always smooth, hand
some surface for the machine and horse
rake to run over. In these days of high
prices for labor farmers should top
dress more, for by SO doing their mead
ows can be kept up by labor performed
at seasons when blowing and hoeing or
sowing are not crowding them. Any
thing that will decay or can be pulver
lied will answer for top dressing, and
every farmer should have a repository
for the farm, such as soap-suds, wash of
the house and barn, when with addition
of turf, muck, etc, he can easily make
material which, spread on his meadow,
will not only make it look very green
but greatly increase his hay, crop and at
the same time, by removing rubbish and
slop from his door, contribute largely TO
the health of his family.
