TRADES UNIoNs.-A decision of con-
siderable importance to members of
trades unions has been made by Judge
Barrett, in New York city, Two long
shoremen had been expelled from their
union for having worked at a less rate
per hour than is fixed by the association
and they brought suit to compel the off,
GERS of the union to recognize them as
members in good standing. The judge
decided that the rule under which the
two men were expelled is contrary 10
good policy, unreasonable and oppressive
and he issued mandamus compelling
their reinstatement. At Montreal, Canada

CHEAP GAs.-The mayor of Brooklyn
\. Y, has contracted with the Mutual
Gaslight Company, under bond for $780,

reduction Of % per cent. from the price
now charged by the old companies,
and at still greater reduction to the
city.

CHEAPENING GAS IN ENGLAND-The
British House of Commons has lately
adopted rule about gas companies which
will have the effect of cheapening the
price of gas all over the United Kingdom
under their laws. 1t provides that IN
granting companies the power to increase
their capital there shall be an agreement
that any reduction of an authorized
standard price of gas shall be accompa-
MED by proportionate increase of the
dividend. and that an increase of the
standard price shall, on the other hand,
worka proportionate decrease ofdividend
The more cheaply the gas can be supplied
to consumers the larger dividend, if earn
ed, can, therefore, be declared to stock
holders. Though the new legislation ap.
plies only to companies, under certain
conditions it will, of course, have the
effect, by encouraging competition, to
bring down the price of gas furnished by
all the companies.

L. G. Root says in the Agriculturist:
One of the principal interests of the
present month is the care of surplus
honey. 1t should be kept in cool, dry
place. Box honey should be examined
occasionally, and if mothworms are
found, they should be picked off and de-
stroyed. Extracted honey may be stored
in tin or wooden watts, or casks; if wood is
used, it should be first coated with wax
Hives that have cast swarms should be
examined to ascertain if they have laying
queens, as the young queen will at times
be lost when the hive contains no brood
from which the bees may rear another.
IL {. hive should be found without a
queen one should be supplied, or brood
given them from which they may rear
queen. A hive that has been aueenless
will often contain SO much honey that
the queen will find but little empty
comb for brood rearing. In this case the
honey should be removed with the ex-
tractor. Hives that are not queenless
may be much benefited by removing the
honey from the centre combs, which will
allow much larger number of young
bees to be reared.
In relation to queenless swarms Mr.
Harrison says in the Prairie Farmer:
Bees that are queenless now will either
be robbed or be destroyed by the ravages
of the bee-moth. They should have
their combs exchanged for those contain
ing brood, or be united with other col
onies. If any colonies are so full of
honey that they have no room for brood
rearing some of the combs should be re-
moved and empty ones put in their
places. In an examination lately of our
own apiary, we found unoccupied combs
in some of the after swarms (these casts
had empty combs given to them when
hived.) These combs were exchanged
for full ones, with those colonies that had
no room for brood-bearing, so both will
be benefited by the change. Those OF US
who are DESTROYS of wintering our bees
successfully should keep their stocks
very strong. Those who are able to
carry out this rule will prove themselves
to be not My bee-keepers, but bee
masters, and my safely calculate on gen
erous returns from their industrious sub
iects.

How Foe Wrote His Raven.
Hartford Times.

1lIueS
Poe's new biographer, w. F. Gill re-
jects as nearly every one of sensibility
and discrimination must, the poets la
bored account of "The Raven" as a
mere product of art, and seeks for a
clew to the poem in the circumstances
under which it was written. Poe was
living at Bloomingdale, n. Y, and
shortly before The Raven" appeared
his child-wife," Virginia, whom he
loved with a purity and intensity that
was little short of alteration, was pros
trated by serious illness, which had
previously afflicted her, and for some
time her life hung by thread. Anima-
ton was at times, indeed, seemingly sus-
pended, and on one dreary December
night, the poet was agonized to find her
cold and breathless, apparently dead. In
his lonely, silent vigils in what was, to
all intents and purposes, the presence of
death, many strange imageries, and
much self-accusation naturally came to
him. Although uniformly kind and
tender to his wife, he had been weak and
erring from his unfortunate susceptible
ty to liquor, and an exaggerated sense of
wrong done to his lost loved one through
bis weakness, not unnaturally came to
him at this time, exciting the most IL
rational remorse. His unreasoning,
agonized repining undoubtedly took
such complete possession of him as 70
thoroughly surcharge his mind with the
imaginative reveries that no mortal
ever dared to dream before; and in pic
turing TO himself his wife as departed,
his remorse also forbade him any hope of
meeting her in the distant Alden of the
future. Mr.. Gill follows this natural
hypothesis with an analysis that rivals
Poe's own for its ingenuity. The house
where "The Raven" was written, by the
way, las been absorbed into New York,
with the rest of Bloomingdale, and is
still standing on rocky height near the
corner of Saith street and the old Bloom
ingdale road, now the St. Nicholas boule-
ward. 1t is plain, old-fashioned,
double-framed dwelling, two stories high,
with eight windows on each side and one
at either end, with a pointed roof, flank
ed bv two brick chimneys.

SOiling and Fertility.

All who have ever made thorough and
judicious experiments in soiling have
found that, aside from all other advan-
tages, the system rapidly increases the
fertility of a farm. This results from a
double cause: First, twice as many an
imals can be kept on the same number Of
acres; and next, all the manure is saved.
Thus it acts and reacts. The more ami
mails the more manure, and consequent
fertility; and the more manure the more
foliage. A writer in the Rural New
Yorker discussing the subject of deteri-
Grafton and reclamation of the soil, says:
Now, there are several economical modes
of increasing fertility. Among them
may be mentioned the blowing down of
clover after a growth of two years, when
the roots become large; the buying and
feeding of large quantities of bran,
which increase the capacity for keeping
live stock, particularly sheep and swine;
the hauling into their yards and pens of
all binds of substances suitable for ma
nure, such as muck, soil, leaves, weeds,
grass, straw, fodder, potato tops, and in
fact all kind of vegetable growth about
the farm. But this should be done be-
ioiO PSAhieIoUo SCCeAo dlC 1ipSs IL hOulu
be still better to adopt the soiling sys-
tenn, for there are two very important
advantages in it; first, a great increase
in the quantity and quality of the ma
nure, and second, because it enables one
to keep about twice as much stock on
the same amount of land. In this there
will be found profit greater than all
the additional outlay for labor, etc.
In my experience | find that one acre
cut is equal to four acres in pasturage.
The manure that is saved by this system
more than pays all the expenses upon
it. Moreover, the saving of fences thus
secured, would, in many localities, also
repay all the cost.
The increase in the value of the animals
kept is about three-fold; and by this
system | make $500 year more than by
the old methed of pasturage. The best
fodder for the purpose of soiling is grass,
oats, corn and rye, cut green. 1t has
been demonstrated that one acre of land
in good state of cultivation, will afford
sufficient food for three cows throughout
the season.
One member of the above association
at least, is now practicing the soiling
plan. He removed all the inside fences
on his farm except those about his yard
and pens, and keeps fifty head of cattle
where only twenty were formerly kept;
and after trial of three or four years he
is highly pleased with the change.

We got out at last, and found ourselves
on the island again. Despairing now
for without horses it was simply impossi-
BILE to get to Button until long after the
time when our coming would be of any
use,-we trudged logged across the
island, that we might wait and listen at
the waters edge for the booming of the
cannon. Two more utterly wretched
young men no Christmas morning ever
dawned upon. sg7

my soul! it's putting to sea!

night drowning horses, and nearly
drowning ourselves, for nothing. Why

How the Beaver Works.


When the beaver finds tree which
seems suited to his purpose, he stands
erect, steadying himself by means of his
tail, and cuts groove around the trunk.
This groove he gradually makes deeper
and wider, until, when the tree is nearly
cut of, it has very much the shape of an
hour-glass. Then he goes round the tree,
turns his head ON one side, just as you
heve seen an old wood-chopper do, and
makes up his mind which way he wants
the tree to fall In a short time he has
it down and cut in pieces yard or so in
length. These pieces are carried to the
place where the dam is to be built The
beaver fastens them firmly in the ground
and fill around them with small sticks,
mud and stones. Perhaps YOU have heard
that the beaver plasters the mud down
with his tail; but this is said to be I'M
true BY those who have watched him at
his work. He strips off the bark from
the wood he cuts, and hides it away at
the bottom of the dam, weaving it in
and out between the logs to strengthen
the foundations. The beavers dam is
sometimes 200 or 800 yards long and ten
or twelve feet thick. This house or
lodge looks very much like a savage's
hut, and is built with underground pas
sages connecting with the water. These
are so far below the surface that they
cannot be closed with ice, and the beaver
cam always go out to get his food with
out being seen from the land.

We have steadily advocated the cult
walton OF clover, as one of our most re-
munerative crops, valuable for furnishing
a large amount of nutritious food, when
properly cured, and under certain quail
fications of great value for pasturage. 1t
is esteemed by many as the best pasture
grass for swine, giving them equal
growth as if fed on corn, if not even bet
ter than corn itself, during the summer
months. I'll
Its value in ameliorating our tillage
land gives it very high rank in this d.
rection, of it is well know to excel any
other agent in loosing up heavy clay
lands, its roots boring into these to a
great depth, their after decay rendering
impacted soils porous, and enriching
them by leaving larger mass of roots
in the soil than are left by any other
plant. st
But, while it ranks among the useful
upon the farm, it may be likened to
two-edged sword, in that it cuts both
ways. The deaths of cattle, horses and
colts, by being allowed to partake too
freely Of clover when first given access to
it, are 50 common that these occurrences
are known to transpire In nearly every
neighborheod annually, throughout the
country. Recently we had a note from
our contributor Celia Sickle, stating that
on her return home from trip west,
through Iowa, she found that nearly
5000 worth of dairy cows had died in her
absence, from being turned on clover
pasture, This, as she remarks, greatly
lessons her labor in the butter dairy, but
the relief comes in way that farmers
can i'll afford in these close times. We
doubt not that many of our readers who
see this will be able to call to mind nu-
merous instances in their own neighbor-
hoods, of sudden deaths of stock from the
same cause.

A CHEAP DISH.-Take piece of bone
less Goldfish, as thick and white as you
can get; pick in pieces and cover with
cold water; add an equal quantity of
peeled potatoes. Boil together until the
potatoes are done and then mashed well.
In small saucepan melt large table
spoonful of butter, stir in an even table
spoonful of -four, and when mixed until
smooth half pint of rich milk, and
salt and pepper to taste. Remove from
the fire and add gradually a beaten egg.
Return to the fire and stir for minute
or two. Pour over the mashed fish and
potatoes and send to table. .-.-
BAKED APPLEs-Thisi is very health
full dish and may be made very enticing
one. Pare and core large, juicy apples,
but do not break them in pieces; fill the
centres with sugar, little lemon juice
and thin bit of the yellow part of the
lemon rind; put Glove in each apple !;
lay them in pan with little water in
the bottom; sprinkle sugar on the tops
and bake. Basic them often, and when
done set away to COOL Put them ON ice
if you can, the colder they are the better.
Whip cream and spread over them thick
ly; send powdered sugar around with
them. If you live in the city content
yourself by serving the apples with rich
milk and sugar, or boiled custard may
be poured over them. ..
TOMATO OMELET FOR BREAKFAST
Peel and chop five fine tomatoes of good
size; season them with salt and pepper,
add to them half teacup of grated
bread. Beat four eggs to foam and stir
into the tomatoes. Heat "spider !"
Kissing hot, put in small piece of but
ter, turn in the mixture and stir rapidly
until it begins to thicken. Now let it
brown for two or three minutes ON the
bottom, then lap it half over, slip on to a
hot dish, and serve for breakfast, gar
nished with parsley and slices of hard
boiled eggs. 1t is an appetizing and also
handsome dish.
BLACKBERRY JELLY.-Put the berries
into stone jar; set the jar into kettle
of warm water and let it boil, closely
covered, until the fruit is all broken;
strain through stout coarse cloth; to
each pint of juice allow one pound of
sugar; set the juice on alone to boil, and
while it is boiling let the sugar be heat
ing in the oven; stir the sugar OCCASION
ally to keep it from burning; after the
juice has boiled just twenty minutes add
the hot sugar; when the sugar has dis
solved let the juice just come to boil,
then remove it at once from the fire !;
