"THEM HARNESS."

A poet says: s'Oh, she was fair,

Oh, no! Further down the hill
of poetry it says: 'sCome with me,
my lassie, and LII take thee to thy
hame" The balance of the harness
is still missing.-La Crosse Dem
You are mistaken about that.
The same poet, speaking of the
same young lady, says: "And all
the iEes, that sorrow left have
faded out in JOY" The rest of the
harness is still MISUNDERSTANDING.
No; still another pieceha turned
up; for further on the muse informs

s'Othello'' it will be seen that
Emilia put the whip into honest
hands to lash the rascal naked

an honest man, may have discover

The missing portions of the
harness may still be found, for
Elijah must have taken some of
them with him in the fiery chariot
hence Shakespeare'sremark "It
droppeth like the gentle rains

however, irretrievably lost through
the gross carelessness of Gloster,

THE LIGHT OF THE AGES,
BY EMF B. swANK.


Life has some souls, supreme and intense
Spirits half freed from the fetters of sense,
Who in vision flash down fate's mystical
pages,
Wrestling some secret from far future ages,
And holding it high to the waiting world,
Show a banner of hope and truth unfurled.
And the world laughs back in madman
scorn-
What cares the world for a truth new borne
Its power we defy, its prophets we stone!
Thou Jesus of Nazareth, leave US alone!
Our name is legion, and each of our host
Pray thee at once to depart from our coast.
But the prophet-like soul in masterful
might.
Holds high over all its banner of light,
And ever it's truth through the wide world
winning,
Draws men aside from their sorrow and
SHINING,
Till history writes in the heart of its pages
This is the light and the hope of the ages.

Many are the ways in which, in poultry
ieeping, little losses are sustained. which i'll
ne end often amount TO comparative failure.
Exposure of young brOods 10 Indictment
weather is so gross a fault, and is so plainly
seen to be a losing operation, that call OF
attention to care in this regard seems scarce
~ necessary; we. chicks often suffer from
cold and dampness when we little think they
10. The present spring has been cold and
backward, and therefore very uniavCrable
10 the rearing of early chicks. In such
weather the hens should be kept coOped up,
rs the chicks will thus be less exposed TO
cold winds. Often have we been reminded
this season that the wind needs tempering TO
the young chick us well as to the lamb. Close
coOps are i great protection, and except nj
times OF heavy raiHs, or in case OF danger
from rats, it is most convenient, and just as
well for the chicks so far as health and COM
fort are concerned, not 10 use boards Tor the
flooring of the coops. But each day they
should be moved few feet to fresh ground
TO insure cleanliness and exemption in great
measure from vermin. At times when the
weather is unusually rough, and the chicks
stand crying and shivering in the cold, quiet,
peace and comfort may be secured by throw
ing over the coop a scrap of old carpet so MS
10 darken it and cause the hen 10 brood the
chicks as if night had come on.-ITdlr'>

Eating Raw Meat.

The pernicious practice of eating raw meat
prevails TO considerable extent throughout
the country among children. Smoked ham
is the kind most commonly used. | do not
think parents would allow it did they know
the dangers attending its use.
The microscope has revealed the fact that
meat commonly used for food beef, pork
etc. frequently contains living parasite
(Cystlccrcus). 1t has been further shown by
experiment that this parasite, when taken
into the alimentary canal, becomes the tnnia
or tapeworm, DR.. kuchcnmeister performed
q series VI experiments, showing that when
the full grown joint ofthe tapeworm is thrown
off from its posterior extremity the eggs
which it contains have been somewhat de-
veloped, SO that each one contains an imper-
fectly-formcd Cysticercus, which, when taken
into the stomach of another animal, passes
through its coats and becomes imbedded in
the muscular and arelOar tissues, where the
process OF development is completed, and we
have fully-developed Cysticercus. Now
when the meat containing these living Cys-
tiCerCus is taken into the allmeNtary canal of
third animal, it attaches itself to the mucua
membrane, and by proc, IS OF buildings be-
comes the full-grown tapeworm. n similar
experiment was performed upon the human
subject. Some meat containing living Cys.
ticerci was given criminal seventy-two
hours before his execution, and upon exam
inlng his body after death no less than ten
young tapewormS were found in the intesti-
nal canal. These highly.interesting and, in
practical view, important facts have been
fully substantiated by number of expert
mentors While it is certain that all meat
does not contain living parasites it is not safe
to eat it raw or not thoroughly cooked. 1t is
oh hat Init nd
cooks are more frequently affected with tape
worm than any other class. 1t is the pres
ence of this parasite in large numbers that
renaers pork "measly," as it is called. The
meat contained in bologna sausage as well as
dried beef is liable to contain living Cysti-
cerci.
Eating raw meat is not the only source Of
the common tapeworm but it is the most
fruitful one, ard its prevention involves care
never to eat meat not thoroughly cooked

y writer who Is strongly opposed TO The
prevalent practice among farmers families
ot living on salt meat, suggests the follow
ing method for keeping meat fresh, which he
processes to have tried himself with marked
success for several years: ~ soon a the an
imal heat Is out of the meat, slice it up ready
for cooking. Prepare "A large jar by sca!ding
well with hot salt and water. Nix salt anu
pUlverized saltpetre. Cover the bottom OF
the jar with sprinkle of salt and pepper.
Put down q layer of meat, sprinkle with salt
and pepper the same as if II was lust going
10 the table, and continue in this manner IN
til the jar is full. Fold cloth or towel and
wet il IN strong salt and water in which a
little OF the saltpetre is dissolved. Press the
cloth closely over the meat and set II in a
cool place. BE sure and press the cloth in
tightly A. each layer Is removed, and your
meat will keep for months. II is a good plan
TO let the meat remain over night, after il j.
sliced, before packing. Then drain off all
the blood that oOZes from il. 1t will he nee
essary 10 change the cloth occasionally,
OF take it off and wash il first in cold water,
then scald in salt and water as at first Ia

Curing Hens of the Propensity tn Sit.

1t is quite as natural for ii hen to sit as it
is to eat or to lay eggs Hence, after u hen
has produced an indefinite number of eggs,
sometimes few and sometimes many, she
will cease to lay and her system will assume
proper preparation to pass the period of in
cubation without impairing her health.
When hen is in a "laying habit" it would
be ruinuus to her health to remain inactive
on the nest for twentyOne successive days
the period OF incubation Some hens are so
slightly incline to incubate that the proper
sity may be cured simply by driving them "A
few times from the nest, while others, even
when they have produced only half \ sitting
of eggs, vii. tick to their nests with pugna
cious desperation. If it is not desirable that
hen be permitted to incubate, she must be
treated phllu~ phicaly and Understandings
When the desire to lnCubate comes on the
laying habit disappears. My own practice
is to put such hcns as are inclined to incu
bate in large cage in the hennery, where
they can see other fowls outside of their
prison, and give them II generous supply of
soft food and water. Aftey they have been
released one or Two days they will com.
mence Immediately to feed up" and to bring
the system again T. an egg producing habit.
A great many sensible people who do not
understand the correct way 10 manage hens
at this natural period take them up in a bar
rel or turn a corn basket over them. Others
order hen to be ducked nine times in water
to cure the propensity to SIT. Others still
hold hens head in pail of water while
one is counting fifty. Other will tie piece
OF red flannel to a hen. Numerous other
stupid remedies are adopted, all of which are
unphilosophical and Intellectual But when
secured in cage, as suggested, if ted gener-
ously with soft food, hen will soon CON-
mence laying another sitting of eggs. When
have valuable hen or turkey whose eggs
are desired for rearing stock of that particu
lar bird she is kept laying. As soon as she
has produced brood of eggs and desires 10
sit she Is put IN cage for day or two and
her eggs are placed beneath another fowl.
BY this system OF Engagement turkey will
often lay three or four sitinrs of eggs in one
season.-igricoIo, in ". y. Herald.

A New WAY 20 MEASURE GrAry.-A
good story is told OF a Tloga county mer,
chant who agreed to take a farmers oats at
forty cents bushel il the latter would let
him tramp the measure when filed The
farmer agreed TO it. The buyer paid for six.
ty bushels, and the next day went after them
The farmer filled the half bushrl, and then
the merchant got in and tramped them down.
Whereupon the farmer poured the oats so
compressed INTO the bag. The merchant
protested. and demanded that the measure
should be filled up after tramping. The far.
mer informed him that there was no agree
ment of that sort, but that he might tramp
down the oats 10 his hearts content after
they were measured.

Biennial kIeerion.

The LEADER suggests to the mem
would be a wise act in them to have
the general election fixed at once in
two years, aud to provide That all
elective officers, territorial. district,
county and precinct be elected at such
election.
In theory our elections are now
biennial, but in practice are yenrly.
All county and precinct officers
are elected for two years. 50 with
members OF the legislature; they
are elected for two years. But the
misery Of the present arrangement in
elections is this that county aud
precinct officers are elected one year,
and the members of the legislature are
elected the next. To us II seeuIs there
would be wisdom IN filling all the
offices at one election, and then have
u year of quietness and repose, free
from political excitement and strife.
1t would he II saving to the counties
of the Territory of at least five hundred
dollars each.
A law can he passed providing for
the election Ofthe Territorial delegate,
county and precinct officers, and mem
oers of the Legislature, at the general
election in 1877. The present county
officers may 10y u special enactment be
authorized aud required to hold ove
until their successors are elected at
this general election, and qualified.
There ought To be no objection tn this,
as we believe 1t Is conceded that the
different counties in the territory
have pretty goo | county officers now,
quite us good perhaps, as they are
likely to get. Those who are waiting
for Il chance to he elected
to office, may not fall in with this sug-
gestinn, rs it would postpone their
prospects for another year. But aside
from these aspirants, NJ considerable
portion of the people will interpOse
any objection 10 it, so long rs it is evil
dent that the tax payers in the end
will be benefited 10y having but one
general election every two years.
1t being our duty rs a journalist to
! offer such suggestions as may aid and
assist the representatives of the people
in the enactment Of sound laws. we
commend the consideration of the pro-
posed change to such of the legislators
