FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Hints About Work.

Ground plaster (gypsum) is cheap
and valuable fertilizer for all the broad
loavcd crops-corn, potatoes, beans, etc.,
as well as clover. For such it may be
applied early, scattering full handful
around each plant or hill. Being soluble
(though slowly, it will be washed into
the soil by rains. There is no reason
why it should be scattered upon the
leaves, as is so often recommended by
some writer's.
Mangels, beets or carrots may yet be
sown, if not already in the ground.
With roots, early sowing is of great ad-
vantage, and rich soil necessity. In
the absence of other manure, super
phosphate of lime, or fine bone flour, in
the drill near the seed, is of great value
for tho above, as also for rutabagas and
trrnips. Rutabagas may be sown later
in the month. AS preventive against
the fly, or turnip or cabbage flea, some
fresh lime, " dry-slaked," with water in
which some carbolic acid has been dis
solved, may be busted over the plants.
This may be done as quickly as a man
can walk, and five or six acres may be
dressed in day. The English farmers
soak the seed in tar water, which, they
say, saves the seed leaves from the flea.
We have not tested this plan, but it may
perhaps be worth trial.
1t is good thing for farmer not to
be afraid of weeds. Some think and act
as though they could not be killed. We
know that they can be if properly man
aged. The secret is to start early and
keep at them. Perseverance during the
whole season is necessary. Narrowing
the ground soon after the crops are
plarted, and again as soon as they, are
up, and then cultivate often, will nearly
demolish them. ANY that escape the
. imple enents should be hand pulled. ]
Nine hours work in the field, now
that We have so many labor saving i'm
plements, is enough for horse or man.
Two hours rest at noon will be well for

The British frigato Ttnedos had mar
row escape near Tresmontes, on the
northern extremity of the Gulf of Penas,
on the 29th of July. The night was
dark, with driving wind blowing, and
the vessel was sailing eight to ten knots.
Shortly after 2:90 the lookout man
shouted "breakers ahead ~ There was
an immense rock close in front. Lieut..
Graham, the officer Of the watch, saw
that before the vessel would come round
she would be on the rock. He at once
took the bold and desperate course of
attempting passage between the rock
and the mainland. There was no knowl-
edge of the nature of the passage, which
from surf to rock was only 1876 yards,
but after period Of intense suspense,
the vessel swept through the narrow
channel, clearing the rock by about
twenty five yards. The headlsnd turned
out to be Cape Raper.

thereby be tresspassers on the rights Of

narrowness and despotic intolerance,

Origin or Thanksgiving DAY,

Thanksgiving day, now quite generally
observed throughout the United States, is
OF American origin. In December, 1921,
one year after the landing OF the Pilgrims
at Plymouth Rock, says Hall in his book,
"The Puritans and their Principles" Ed
ward WinslOw wrote from Plymouth to a
friend in England that they (the Pilgrims)
had built seven dwelling houses and four
public houses, for the use of the plantation,
and had several others in state of for
wardness: they had planted twenty acres
OF Indian corn and sOwed six acres Of bar
ley and peas; and now harvest being gath
cred, they kept the first New England
Thanksgiving. Deer, wild turkey and fish
were abundant, and the Governor OF the
Colony detailed four hunters with their
guns to procure materials for the~J feast.
These hunterA in one day took enough
game to last the settlement a week, and
after special manner they rejOiccd after
they had gathered the frnit of their labors.
This custom the Pilgrims kept up each
year after the labors of the harvest were
done. 1t seems a beautiful and apprOprl-
ate custOm-a grateful acknowledgment
Oi the beneicent dispensatiOn OF an all
wise Providence. As the settlement ex-
panded, the custom followed to the other
Colonies until it became coextensive with
the States,

That effort at Cincinnati on the 18th
inst, to manufacture a little Democratic
capital by calling n meeting Of ex-Union
soldiers without distinction OF party, to
protest against the Inauguration of HAYES,
might be termed signal failure. LEW
CAMPBELL was made Chairman, and an
attempt was made to declare carried set
Of resolutions previously prepared, de-
nouncing the Government in bitter terms.
The soldiers, feeling that they were misrer-
resented by these resolutions, deposed Mr..
CAMPBELL, and elected Lieut.. GUTHRIE
Chairman, after which the following reso-
buttons we're adopted as an expression OF
the meeting:

To illustrate the predominanee of DR..
PEcK's kindnessof heart over all other feel
ings and dispositions, We will state an Incl
dent which came under the observance Of
the writer. Some years go,when the Doc
tor was running the Touring mill in this
place and attempting to keep the hydrnul-
ic in such repair as was necessary to afford
water po owcT, his losses and constant annoy
a "sour mood" Added to the annoyances
above mentioned, Mr.. @. BEACH became
agent for the Pearl Mills -four at Maumee
and ran lively opposition to the Doctor
in this village. The Doctor did not object
to opposition, but he felt that where man
was sacrificing so much and struggling
SO hard to keep up so important business
interest, the people of the village should
sympathiEe with and encourage him.
When in one Of his worst moods in the
midst Of these annOyances, poor man
called at the Doctors Office, at the rear of
the ole drug store, and asked to be trusted
for barrel OF -four. There was terrible
thunder nloud overhanging the Doctors
brow and at once fierce storm burst mp
on the head of the poor man. mo-" said
the Doctor, "you can't have any -four.
When you have the money you go to
BEAcH's to get your -four, and when you
want to get trusted you come TO me. Yon
must get trusted where you spend your
money" For half an honr the Doctor
poured out condemnation upon the head
Of the man, but the poor pleader for bread
declared that I've could get -four Of no one
else without money-that he had no mon
ey and eonld get none-and the Doctor,
after free expression Of his worst feelings,
turned to the man and said, "Well, 20 to
the mill and get barrel Of -four" Thus,
under circumstances well calculated to
crush benevolent spirit, DIR. PEcK's
generous nature asserted its supremacy and
the poor mans heart was filled with joy.

It would seem that 3D." might have
shown his stupidity without using an en-
tire column Of the Grangsr for that pur-
pSse. We stated, two weeks ago, that the
Governors certificate was nothing but evil
d lance tending to show who had received
majority OF the Votes cast for Electors.
Where such certificate talsifies the facts,
its value ceases and 1t may be ignored.
The fact that the Governor OF Oregon
ssued false certificate cannot result in
he acknowledgements of the people OF that
State, and TILDEN. THURMAN and all
Democrats Of any standing now take thi'
view Of the Oregon case, and claim nothing
OH account Of the Governors trick. The
oaso in Louisiana is entirely different. In
Oregon, the Governor issued certificates in
direct violation Of the facts returned to him
respecting the result of the election, while
in Louisian@ the certificate of the Cover
n1r was based upon and fully accorded
with the official records of the votes cast.
