The Prussian Army.

The rank and file in the Prussian
army are miserably paid and poorly
fed, according to our ideas. The
Court Journal gives some interesting
statistics concerning this matter.
The only ration which a private sol
der receives in peace is one and one
half pounds Of coarse bread. His
pay is thirty-six thalers q year, or
about nine shilings a month; from
this a deduction Of one and one fourth
grOscben, OF about one and One-half
pence a day is made for messing. aud
TO this is added an allowance made
by government, which varies accord
ing to the garrison, and is fixed
quarterly. On the whole, it may be
said that each German soldier has a
bowl Of cruel or coffee in the morn
ing and one meal in the middle of
the day provided for him, also that
be has about two and ohe-half pence
remaining over from bis pay TO pro-
vide his supper There is no fixed
rate Of pay for the nOn-eOmmissiOned
ranks. \ bargain is made with each
nUn-commissioned officer from time
to time, according to the value of bis
services. But after they leave the
army they are well provided for, and
it is wholly unknown that d deserv-
irg non-commissiOned officer should
be necessitated to seek employment,
after be has served his time, because
be is unprovided for.

Ny Plan with Pigs.

/ have studied the ma ture Of the
hog, and come to the foil owing con-
clusions:
First, have the pigs dropped about
the first of May, thus avoid the cold
winds of March and April, and the
OVERLAPPING occasioned by penning ID
early spring. | save by this plan
about ten per cent, and sometimes
more, especially of wet, cold spring
Second, have a good blue grass or
clover pasture for them to run IN,
with plenty of fresh water, and feed
literally with corn.
Third, the following year have a
good field of rye to turn on as it be-
gins to harden, and, if possible good
clover lot. / feed no corn while they
are on the rye. In the meantime l
have four or FIVE loads of coal ashes
from the steam mill, or refuse from
the brickyard, and mix with salt or
wood ashes. By the first of Septem-
Der they are ready for corn, not fat
but healthy and sleek as moles. l
then commence feeding, each day in
creasiDg the amount until they are
on full feed; never overfeed, but as
they will eat up clean. | give plenty
of fresh water, and in six weeks | am
ready to market pigs that average
over 500 pounds each. | am not par
ticular about the breed. but prefer a
cross of Berkshire and BY field. A
person may do better With a few, but
this plan is for those who keep from
sixty 10 one hundred head, and feed
no cattle.-Correspondent Ne'o fors

Giving fowls Exercise.

The Fancier's Journal, Philadel-
phia endorses the practice Of Col.
Taggart, Northumberland county,
Pa, as beneficial and economical
The editor describes the mode as fol-
lows:
We found here several beds about
thirty feet square each, in which Mr..
Taggart buries oats, several bushels
to the bed. The grain begins, Of
course, at once to swell and germin-
ate, and the fowls have free access,
scratching aud eating the tender
sprouts to their hearts content
While the fowls are thus busy on one
bed, a new one is prepared which is
ln readiness by the time the first Is
exhausted. In this way the fowls
not only enjoy the benefits of vegeta-
zion, but have ample exercise at the
same time. The idea is a good one,
and we are glad to call attention to
it. In our own yards we have found
the benefit of it, and are glad to learn
that we are not alone in the prsc-
| fipe

About the Water supply.

Here are some rules on the sub
ject of the water supply of dwellings,
from the SdRitariaH:
Tue well should be sunk at as
great distance as possible from the
privies pig-stys, fold yards and other
collections of filth; especially is this
necessary where the water from the
surface spring has to be used
The top and sides Of the well
should be carefully puddled with well
tempered clay, eighteen inches thick,
as far down, if practicable, as the hrst
bed of clay.
If the top of the well be left open,
it should be walled around to keep
the surface water olt and prevent ac-
eidents
The soft water cistern. if under
ground, should be built in eOment,
and puddle eighteen inches thick, it
should be ventilated, and the over
flow should not go into any sewer or
drain.
The lid should be surrounded by
a raised rim to prevent any surface
water getting into the eistern-
LeaGen pipes should not be used
for soft water.
The same eistern should not be
used for drinking and supplying a
water closet.

How He Did Ia

The Independence Beige tells a
story of a priest who, during the Ju-
Dilee mission was excessively dissp-
pointed at finding none but female
listeners to his sermon On the day
before his final ministratiOn he thus
addressed bis congregation:
"It is a great comfort to US that
you have duly confessed your sins

Traits or the Shark.

When all the blubber and fat has
been removed from the carcass of th,
whale by the Trinidad fishermen, il
is usually towed olt, and allowed tC
drift with the current as q bait fol
sharks, while large canoes, filled
somewhat in the style of whale boats
'ollow it, to harpoon any of these fish
that may come within rauge. Shark
ing is rather good sport in itself, and
is at the same time very remunera
tive, on account of the quantity OF
oil that may be obtained from the
liver. The shark is killed much in
the same way as the whale, being
first harpoOned, and then laneed til
it is exhausted, after which its liver
is cut out and placed in the boat.
The liver is four or five feet long
and a large one will give as much as
fifteen or sixteen gallons of oil.
Though sharks in these parts are
numerous, accidents while bathing
or even when boats are swamped a
sea, are rare; and they will not tOuct
human being even when in the
water alongside whale that is be
ing cut up. Several instances ar,
well authenticated where persons hav'
thus fallen among them and escaped
without injury; the shark, it is said
preferrins the blubber and the fesi
of the whale to human flesh. 1her'
can be no doubt, however, that if th'
person thus immersed were wounded
in such a manner as to cause BLOOD
