A Pin in His Back.

The Albany Times of Friday says
Gone OF the lodges of the innumera-
bic multitude which is always striving
to live without work is thus described
by a resident of Hamilton street: A
strong healthy-looking man rang the
door-bell and asked for a few pennies
to buy him some bread. They were
refused on general principles, and then
the sturdy beggar began writhing as if
in misery, and explained that he had a
pin sticking in his back, which hurt
hin severely. He would like to 20 into
the house minute, in order to remove
the troublesome thing. In the case re.
ferred to, suspicion was aroused, and
the man with a pin in his back was
ordered to move on. In others, how.
ever, the imposter has been allowed to
go into a room alone, where he has
helped himself to- whatever he could
lay his hands on. The trick was quite
common on Arbor Hill few wears ago,
and in one instance the lady of the
house, who was alone, was rudely in
insulted. Our readers will do we'll to

tries, and will obtain the supremacy
for which they are striving, unless our
dairymen at once awake to the neces-
sites of the case, and by proper en-
ergy re-established the rapidly waning
celebrity of New York State butter. It
would not be amiss for certain of our
cheesemakers to apply the same ad-
monition to themselves-a correspond
ing evil beginning to exhibit itself in
that product also, though to smaller
extent.
We have always commended that the
West has all the facilities over the
East for making good butter. Es.
pecially is this so in the three north.
western States of Iowa, Wisconsin and
Minnesota. All that is required is ex.
perience. The butter product in these
three States could be built up into
mammoth proportions. Had we the
dairy women of the East in the West
it would help matters very much. If
there is any one thing neglected on the
farm in the West, it is the butter in
terest.

Philadelphia Pluck.
Ter for September.

| From scribner for September.
Whatever advantages Of this sort
may accrue to the Quaker City will
have been most fairly and Loyalty won;
for, OF surety, never was there a
great business scheme of national i'm
portance carried through with so clean
hands, or such absence of all pecula-
ton as this Centennial Exhibition.
And Philadelphians may we'll boast,
that, at period when the business of
the country was showing unparalleled
prostration, and political and private
jobbery were rampant, they have
initiated and pushed to a successful
issue grand scheme of international
industrial exhibit, involving millions
of cost, without any wavering of faith
or thievish blot upon it's direction.
Indeed. in the whole show there is
not to our mind anything better worth
showing than the steadfast, strong,
straightforward purpose with which
Philadelphians have pushed this mat
ter, through thick and thin, to it's final
issue, and the superb disdain which
they have shown for all sorts of scoffers
and doubters. Pluck of this sort de-
serves it's reward. and will have it,
whether it comes by admission tickets,
or in other ways.
And other ways will open whatever
may be the exhibit of temporary
pecuniary result. There is the positive
city growth already alluded to-some
of which must be healthy and real !;
there are the permanent buildings
within the exhibition Enclosure which
inure to the city; there is the newly
established 'School Of Art" whose
administrators, with wise forecast, are
making large purchases of such materi-
al as could be secured under no other
conditions, to such advantage, as here
and now; there is the immense educat-
ing influence Of the exhibition in it's
entirety. upon the population of the
city and there is the further material
gain of winning and holding reputa-
ton for executing gigantic scheme
with steadfast purpose, and for enter
tanning a world Of strangers without
giving reasonable cause for complaint.

Rye for Hogs.

we are pleased to learn that many
farmers in the big woods are now fat
ening their pork on rye. They claim
that this grain makes as good pork as

The rye is sown in the fall of the wear.
and upon reaching maturity, say late
in June, or early in July, the swine
herd is turned into the field of rye, and
help themselves all summer long to the
raw grain. It seems to US that it would
be better to harvest and thresh the
grain, and then add water to it in the
shape OF wet food, but those who have
tried both ways inform us that the lat
ter is more expensive and not so good
way as the first. Pork is made in
this way at half the expense when fed
on corn.

these is five inches in diameter, and
has fourteen circular perforations,

eter. Within hollow sphere are
twenty-three other smaller ones, each
moving free of all the others. Super
stitious people ask how the latter got
in there, and look around them as if
on the watch for witches. The opera.
ton is a very simple one, but it re-
quires immense patience. The solid
sphere Of ivory is taken and the four
teen or other number of holes bored
until they have reached points, say
half an inch from the centre. A small
sharp carving instrument the cutter of
which must be at sharp angle with
the handles, is introduced into each
hole, and by careful cutting, small
ball may be freed in the centre of the
mass. 1t will hardly, however, be per-
fectly spherical. This process is re-
peated as often as is represented by
the number of spheres to be freed.
But the most delicate part of the work
is to follow, for the outside sphere of
the ball in question has been trans
formed by the magic touch Of the
Oriental artist into forests, cities, and
groups of people, and each of the in
side ones into ivory lace Of the most
fowery and delicate pattern. It re-
quired the labor of one man for over a
year and half to carve this ball, and
yet it is marked for sale at 5000. There
are dragon-boats, floWer-boats, and nu-
merous other articles of the same ma
terial and wonderful execution pos.

hardly possible that Europeans and
Americans who examine these and the
unexcelled wood carving of the show

nose at John Chinaman again.

LIFE.

How checkered this life of ours,
To-day with sunshine over head,
With hopes set high in Elysian bow'rs,
And fields of beauty before us spread.
No pangs of sorrow, pain or care,
Invest our souls with cankering blight;
But free as birds cleaving the air,
In thought We soar to plains more bright.
Tomorrow comes the damps of life;
The mists gatherin' thick and full,
And now the turbid stream of strife
Is rushing DER our storm-tossed soul.
So roll she changing fittul years,
As thor our being on they glide;
To-day the smiles, tomorrow tears,
The end-death over-fowing tide.

Western DIARIES.

Our Eastern friends are a good deal
exercised over the fact that the West
carried off the first premium at the
Centennial Exposition. It is salts.
faction to know that a Northwestern
State was the successful COMPETE
itor. The following article OH eastern
and Western diaries will be read with
interest.
In the Eastern markets dairy pro-
ducts are classed as Eastern and W est
ern. the former being much superior
to the latter. Eastern producers and
consumers have been startled and sur
prised at the result of the recent COM
petition between the dairymen Of the
United States at the Centennial Expo
sition, Iowa having carried off the first
prize. Upon this subject the New
York Bulletin makes the following re-
marks: The announcement that an
Iowa creamery has carried off the first
prize over all exhibits of butter from
other States, at the Centennial Exhibi.
ton, naturally attracts the attention
OF the trade. The products of our own
State has always been considered SUI
perlor to that Of any other section of
the country, and the result of this
competition from Iowa is to many a
little surprising. Yet, after all, we

look upon the award as a just and nat

purpose OF increasing weight, but at
the sacrifice of solidity and staying

itself very decidedly during the pres

doubt, just as good butter produced in
some sections of the State to-day as
heretofore, and it is claimed that a
proper representation of some makes
at the Centennial Dairymen's Associa-
ton building would have retained the
laurels for New York. But it is also
admitted that these really first class
offerings are the exception rather than
the rule; that constantly studying the
wants OF the cities on the seaboard, the
west has dispossessed itself of the idea
that almost anything would do to send
to New York, Philadelphia or Boston,
and, steadily improving on the pro-
duct, it now begins to produce grades
on which it is not uncommon to obtain
rates equal to those of the best State,

preserves their superiority simply by

ing butter for market. Ohio, Iowa,

The Apple Blight.

The cause of the blight of the apple
trees seem to be shrouded in mystery.
The late VIM. NJ. Harrison, who was
certainly at the head of the pomologi.
cal Interests in Minnesota, was certain
that the cause could be attributed to
an insect. On the other hand, Wyman
Elliott thinks it is kind of fungus.
mold or mildew. Now, both Mr.. Har-
rison and Mr.. Elliott are good author
tiles. 1t is certainly difficult matter
to determine the cause, but it will be
observed that the blight always occurs
during hot weather, hence it must in
some way be connected with heat. If
so the explanation may be put down in
this way:
The nutritious juices are tn, own in
to state Of fermentation while ex.
posed to the hot rays of the sun, and
hot air in the leaves, and thus all the
saccharine and other nutritious princi-
pies are evaporated, the sap turned to
vinegar, and the wood, or branches,
or leaves, or fruit, that depended upon
this saccharine principle for food
must perish.
we don't suppose that many will
agree with us, but it is a matter that
we have bestowed good deal of atten-
ton, and can come to no other conclu.
sion, and if the mystery is ever solved
we are pretty sure that the above will
be pretty near the answer.
1t we are correct in our theory this
idea suggests itself: The parts effect
ed dies of starvation.

Field and Orchard,

James Redpath, a horticulturalist
OF Buchanan county, Iowa, has made
an experiment to determine the time
OF year at which wounds made in
pruning are covered best and most
speedily. A branch one inch in diam.
eter was cut from an apple tree of a
well'known variety on the first day of
each month in the year, and at the
end of five years, when all were
healed over, they were opened and
1ound to have decayed the least in
those cuts in February and March,
Gust before the swelling of the buds)
and most in those cut in June during
the growing season } while those
pruncd during the latter season had
the advantage of being closed one
year the earliest. A similar expert
ment was made with the Yellow Bell
flower, and at the end of four years
all the TT ees cut were healed over; on
opening the places where the pruning
had occurred, the result was found,
except slight difference in favor of
February and July. In these expert
ments, the decay from Summer prun-
ing was about three times as extensive
as from that result in the Winter
months. Root pruning for dwarfs al
ways ruined the constitution of the
tree.

Something New About Eggs.

The London News says that England
imports $s12:000,O0O worth of eggs
every year, and then proceeds to speak
of the practice of dryingcthe egg SUBJ
stance as adopted in Germany saying ::
''There is one establishment at Pas
sau, on the Danube, which has been
for some months busily engaged in
in drying the contents Of eggs and al
though it is scarcely probable that the
dissected albumen can ever replace
new-laid eggs for breakfast, we are
nevertheless assured that an omelette,
as also the finest pastry may be pre-
pared from the product. Several Ger
man chemists, and Professor Petten-
kofer in particular, are very sanguine
as to the success of the experiment, and
they pronounce dried eggs to have
lost none of their valuable properties
by the gradual evaporation Of the wa
ter contained by them in their natural
state. Eggs are largely employed in
industry and manufactures, some
times the whites being used, as in the
case of albumenized paper for photo
graphers, and sometimes only the
yOlk. In these cases much economy
will result from the employment Of
dried albumen, for the consumer then
needs merely to purchase the white or
yellow part just as it suits him, and
will not be obliged as at present to buy
the whole contents of an egg, only one
half of which he can use. The fact,
too, that the new product can be trans
ported without any risk of breakage
and decay, which entail a serious loss
in the case Of eggs: and naturally raise
their price in the market, is also of
vast innortanca
