How to Make Home Beautiful.

What dreary desolatiOn is that old home
stead which has no trees around il. They need
not be planted close to the windows and they
need not be planted too close together; either
makes them Injurious to the health. But, oh,
the blessing on hot Summer days, of grand old
tree, few feet out in the deOr-yard. Do not
the tired workmen and the sun-bunt children
turn to its shadow naturally as the needle
points northi 1t is hard to forgive farmer for
bis laziness and stupidity if he has lived half n
dozen years in home and never set out tree
about it. Fine thrifty fruit trees which cost but
few dollars in the start, add from a hundred
to a thousand dollars to the value of place,
and there is no computing in money the addition
they are to the comfort and happiness account.
1t ought to be rung in the ears of every one who
owns q square rod of ground to set out a tree up
on it.
Get q few standard pear and cherry trees, and
If you cannot buy fertilizers for them, save up a
peck or two of the unsightly bones about your
homes, pound them up as fine as you can con-
'yeniently, transplant yOur trees A half bushel
tperhaps to standard, and half peck or peck
to dwarf trees. 1t is slow acting fertilizer, bnt
1t is very sure, and will last almost for the life
time of the tree.
Some recent writer has intimatcd that if your
house is surrounded by shade and fruit trees,
much finer class of young men will be likely
to call around OIL your daughters and your boys
will find their attentions much more acceptable
TO other peoples sisters, and that "the girls will
have their chances to marry WELL increased ten
fold If they can go out and pick Strawberries for
. tea"
at is only another way Of saying that your
children will be more refined and respected, If
there are marks of taste and enterprise about
Your dwelling. There is no beautifer for even
the humblest home like fine trees and there is no
greater luxury for the family table, than rich
ripe fruit in its season.

DiphtheriR Coutnpious.

Since the death of Bretonneau, some twenty
five years ago, it has been abundantly proved
that diphtheria is communicable otherwise than
by inocculation, for the result of numerous chem
icas and microscopic Investigations has been to
nearly demonstrate that the disease is cOnta-
gious by contact with the patient through ex-
halations from the surface and his breath. And
it is thought that the cause of diphtheria has
been found in the existence upon the diseased
parts in the diphtheritic cases, of small
vegetable parasites, which are endowed with
life and motion, and which have been designated
"bacteria." These parasites increase in number
the disease increases in intensity, and if diph
Iheritic Inflammation attacks any surface which
is covered by the parasites, which cause certain
other diseases, such catarrh, the parasites di-
minsh and disappear, as though deprived of the
required nutriment And Oh the other hand,
when diphtheria disappears other vegetable
forms may succeed. The grayish white spots
which appear upon nfiamed surfaces at the be-
ginning of diphtheria entirely composed of
these bacteria, which have come in contact with
the mucous membrane, and have adhered to it,
and which, unless prevented, will multiply rap
idly, and then by burrowing through the tissues
will infect the whole system. The reason why
diphtheria primarily and chiefly affects the sur
faces of the nose and throat is that the air which
contains the germs of the bacteria constantly
passes over these surfaces. The important con-
clusion to be deducted from these facts is that
diphtheria in entirely local in its commencement
and is amenable to local measures.

Bringing Her to the Point.


One long Summer afternoon there came to Mr.,

bachelor the world ever heard OF. he was Oh,
gray, wrinkled and odd. He and Aunt fatty ha'i

yet still lie came, and it noticed that Aunt
Patty took unusual pains with her dress whcnev-

One day the contest waged unusually strong,
and Aunt Patty left in disgust and went out into

stopped to gather flower which attracted her
attention.

ABOUT POTATO SEED.-A correspondent of the
Peoria Farmer says that after % years experience
he has become convinced that seed potatoes
should be frequently changed-that is the same
variety should not be continuously planted in
the same locality where the seed is grown, but
the seed should at least every alternate year be
obtained some miles away where it has grown in
different soil. He has run his crop almost ont,
and discovered the cause of deterioration by Civ
ing some seed to poor man to plant who pro-
.duced heavy crop, This correspondent then
procured seed of the same variety at little dis
tance and procured q satisfactory crop. He says
further that not more than four stalks should
grow in a hill, and to this end potatoes should
ibs so cut that but single eye should remain on
q niece.

PlanaCorm.

The following extract from an article in the
St. Louis Globe, applies with equal force to the
Kansas farmer as to bis more eastern neighbOrs
fAs the season is at hand when rural
friends must not only be considering what crops
they will put in for the coming season, but get
ting ready to plant them, it will be il place to
say few words about the great western staple,
corn. Whatever views may be entertained on
the subject of diversity of crops, and however
profitable the planting of fax, tobacco ana otner
onaccuStomed crops may prove TO he, u Is he'H ~
theless certain that corn must prove 70 DC tne
main reliance of the farmers of Illinois, missouri
and Kansas, if not of States lying north Oh tnat
belt. Especially will this prove true dn,IlS .ne
coming crop season. For the two years last past
the corn crop has been qnitc small, not Only IN
the above mentioned States, but generally
throughout the country. he yleid OF lo|5 was
hardly more than twO-thirds, ana tnat Oh 1873
hardly half crop. As consequence, corn aud
pork have ruled high, and are now very scarce.
The granaries of the country are about enptied,
and there will be no old corn on hand TO COM
pete with the crop that is to be gathered in 1875.
No matter how favorable season may have,
and no matter with how large crop the opera
tons of the year may close, the supply of corn is
not at all likely TO exceed the demand, and the
farmer may be sure of being well rewarded for
his labor, whether he sellIhis crop i'll the sack
in the hog.
The principal point to be attended to is early
planting. There is always more danger in plant
ing too late than planting too early. Corn
should be put into the ground soon as the
soil is ready to receive it, aud every days delay
is a positive loss. Early planted corn escapes
the drought, and chinch- bugs, the frost, and no
further argument is needed TO show the necessi-
ty Of early planting. As for manuring and care
full cultivation, everybody recognizes these re-
quisites TO successful corn crop The expe-
riences of last year should teach our farmers not
to plant corn fields, especially of late corn, near
Winter wheat, or so to protect them by trenches
as TO keep off these Summer pests. If these pre-
cepts should be generally observed, an immense
corn crop may be expected, such as will fill the
pockets of the farmers, and largely increase the
wealth of the country.

Production OF EvERGREENs.-Wben prepar-
ing our last December Calendar, we alluded to
the remarkable fact, that the heat given ont by
evergreen trees was so great to keep flowers
near them in full bloom, fresh and Summertime,
up to late period of the year. As We now
write, all beddingplants have been killed month
ago by the frost two or three degrees below the
freezing point; while few hundred yards off,
even such tender things as scarlet sage, protect
cd little by belts of svergreens, are blooming
gaily, and will, most probably, remain so till the
first week in December. 1t often astonshes us
to find people complaining of the severity of the
Winter on themselves, their cattle, and their
fruits and flowers, wien planting belts of ever
greens on the cold quarters would do much to

TAKE CARE OF THE TREES. Nothing is so at
tractive to the traveller fine country residences
and how much might be added to the appearance
of many indeed most of our farms, if proper atten
ton were paid planting shade trees in their
appropriate places. They something for
the eye to feast upon, they please the imagina-
the associations of happiness. Sociality, refine
ment, and learning follow in the train of rural
improvements. Nothing contributes, in our esti-
nation, so much to the pleasantness of a place
the presence of trees; and surely no luxury
ofhalfthe value can beprOcured for the same price
