CUTTING Grass EARLY.-l have been
watching grass field since last July
$50, part Of which was cut early with
a mower, and the rest left three weeks
later. The square block Of two or three
acres in the center Of the field, which was
cut last, seemed almost killed all the fall.
The grass was timothy, and very little
aftermath appeared, while the outside Of
the field cut first was bright and green.
The same result appears again, this
spring, and lJudge the middle OF the field
will not yield n hali.ton Of hay per acre,
while the outside may 60 up to ton aud
half. Add to this that the early cut
grass was best for hay, and it makes n
strong case for early cutting It is equal.
ly important for clover, and, indeed, un.
less clover Is kept very closely cut or
pasturcd, the second season, 80 as to pre-.
vent its seeding, it israrCly worth keeping
for grass, the third neutrality-suspicious.

MILKING WITH DRY IIANDs.-A wri-
ter on the subject says: | believe that
much milk gets tainted with nOxiOus or
bad oders before it reaches the pail, Some
persons, and hired help especially, have
habit Of wOtting their hands with milk
once in u while, and wetting the cows
teats, as they say, to make them milk cas-
Ter. Now this wetting process causes
much foul matter to drop from their
hands or the teats into the pail while
milking. This Is all wrong. Cows can
be MIXED as easy with dry hands rs with
wet ones. have been in the habit Of
milking cows, although have met with
some hard mixers, that required their
tcats to be softencd in order to draw the
milk, | have generally found itbOth cas-
Ter and plcasantcr to milk with dry hands.
II the teuts are dirty, the udder should be
wet with tepid water, and allowed to dry
before milking; ifthc tcatS are very hard
aud tough to draw, the COW had better BIO
turned into beef, or kept to raise calves
from.

TnttIinR.

In all the black catalogue Of vices,
which unhappily debase the character Of
the sons and daughters Of Adam, tattliRg
we'll nigh holds the pre.eminence. It is
the meanest, the most detestable OF all hab-
ia, and, when once contracted, clings as it
we're, with the tenAcity Of demon. In
view ofits depravity, and Of the many and
fearful vices following in its train, the
Lord commanded Moses to speak unto
all the congregations Of Israel and say I'M
to them Thou shalt not go up and down,
as u tale-bearer among the people" and
in the sacred psalm it is written" Who
so privily slandereth his neighboF, him
will cut of" =
The rabid dog, let loose in a communi-
~ TO bite whatever man or beast he meets,
is not as dangerous as the tattler. The dog
kills only the individual bitten, while the
tattler's venom poisons madly and fatally,
the whole community. lie goes TO neigh
boris, and listens aitentively, hears, per.
haps, something said that may bO used to
the disparagement, possibly, the ruin OF
another, which he drinks down with the
ayidity with which the thirsty topper does
the fiery auid, and then goes forth with
venomous tongue to disseminate suspi.
cion, distrust and ranking hate, where
before was tho abode OF neighborly love
and confding trust.
Thus the peace Of society ismarred, Of
ten disrupted; confidence destroyed
friends made foes discOrd and strife Gre
aled, and all the diabOliCal schemes OF the
father Of liea, used to destroy all that is
lovely aud OF good report, furthered by
the tatller, who may well be compared
to the viper in tho fable, that, warmed
and brought to life by the care OF its
kindhearted bcneiaclor, turned and stung
him to the heart,

ADVICE 10 REVIVAL CONVERTS

Rev. Charles spurseon preached
a sermon during he Moody and
Sankey agitation in London, in
Which nc gave the following sensi-
advice. This extract was copied
into the Maiau Mirror, the organ
OF the Brahmo Somaj, the liberal.
society in India; from thence it found,
Its way into letter of Mr.. Voysey
and was printed in the Boston Index,
to which journal our readers are in
debted for the benefit of its perusal.
CHOW do pray you who profess
to have found Christ, do not make
sham of it. Do let it be salvation
from sin that you have got. Saliva
ten from hell-is that what you
Wnnt? That is not the salvation you
ought to try after. 1t is the saliva
ton from sin. That will bring saliva
ton from hell. You know every
thief would like to get salvation from
going to prison, and that would not
be OF any use to him. The saliva
ton that is worth having is the sal
yation from thieving any more, Mr..
Thief. If you get that, you will get
salvation from prison, too. Saliva
ton from hell is not the matter, but
salvation from SHINING. Now let US
see how you live, you converts. You
go home, madam, and be snappisIg
at your servants. You go home,
servants, and be slovenly over your
duty. You, working man, give half
days work for whole days wa
ges. You, master, act the tyrant
over your men. And then you have
been converted, have you? I pray
God undo such a conversion, and
begin again with you. There are
lots of people who need to be I'M
converted before they are converted
to have the rubbish they have
built up themselves pulled down
before Christ can begin. Suppose
you have some ground, and it has
an old ramshackle building on it.
GU have to- get that out of the
way. There are plenty of people
who have a goodfor-nothing con-
version that wants sweeping away
before God can do anything with
them"

PHILOSOPHY AND COMMON SENSE
NIHILlSM.
ELLEN P. -ALLERTON.


The structures upon my former
article in the SPEcTRoscoPE of Sept.
ed, furnish full proof that an edi-
tor can treat an opponent courteous
~. With SO generous foe, it is
easy to be good natured, and good
nature should rule all discussion.
And now, 7 ask the attention and
patience Of readers, While attempt
a reply.
The SPECTRosco9E refers to Mr..
Haskin's article on the. Telephone
to prove that there is no sound with
out an ear to hear. It quotes: seThe
hammer striking upon the metal
does not produce sound at all. 1t
merely sets III motion the air sur
rounding it, and the air thus thrown
into wave motions beats upon the
drum of the ear. and produces the
effect called sound upon the brain"
Some Interpretation IS required to
make the above quoted passage say
