The Color Of Mars.

Several hypotheseS haveabeen ad-
vance d to explain the reddish color
which characterizes the bright parts ol
the panet's disk. Mr.. Higgins comes
to the conclusion that this peculiarity
is not due to the planets atmosphere.
Indeed, AragO has called attention to
the fact that upon this hypothesis the
redness should be-Inore decided at the
borders of the planet than in the cen
tral portions, since the luminous rays
traverse greater thickness of atmos-
phere, and traverse it more obliquely,
in the regious near the limb, when tbt
contrary effect is observed. 1t has alsC
heen remal ked that this hypothesis
does not explain why the red tint is not
general. Mr.. Lockyer has suggested
that the color may depe nd upon the
cloudy state Of the planet, and the
spectruscope gives considerable support
to this hypothesis. In 1862 the planet
was clearer of clouds and more ruddy
than IN 1854. The explanation Of this
is that when Mars is clouded the light
reflected by the. clouds undergoes les
absorption thansthat refs cted by stht
planet itself. The spectroscope indi-
Gated this increased absorption Oil one
occasion by showihgthat the reflected
sunlight was without large portion OF
he blue rays. ss ~
Lambert has attempted to explain
the ruddy acsler Of the spots, and thei
Disappearance or indisiinctness durins
the Martial winter, by the bypothesi,
that the vegetation on the planet is rec
instead 0f green : Hence, in the Mar.
tial summer the surface has a ruddy
appearance, which disappears in win
ter. AS Mr.. Proctor remarks, if thi,
hypothesis were true, the rapiC
changes of color which have been notec
by many observers, would iudica.e the
eaddeh bloOIDing forth of Martial veg
etation over hundreds of square mile
OF the plsnet's surface. FinaiIy, We
have the hypothesis, first advanced
we believe, by Herschel-and still ac-
cepted az the best explanation of tn.
phenomenon by many astronomers
that the red color is due to the charac
ter of the planets soil.-[C Charles w.
Raymond, in The Galaxy for October.

How to Physic a Horse.

The horse must undergo preparation
for phvsic. which is done by gently re-
laxihg the bowels. During the day
previous, his feed should be restricted
to bran-mashes-a quarter of peck
being sufficient for feed-and this,
with his drink, should be given warm.
Corn and oats should be withheld, lard
hay restricted. lie may have walking
or trotting exercise morning and even
ing. AS an ordinary physic, the fol-
lowing ball may be given: Powdered
aloes, four drachms; powdered ginger,
three drachms: treacle, as much as suf-
ficient TO form ball. The physic is
given Ia the morning on an empty
stomach: after that a bran-mash is
given; that over, the horse goes to ex-
ercise for perhaps an hour, and is wa
tered when he returns, the water should
be as warm as he viii take it, and he
should take as much as he chooses
throughout the day. Bran-mash
should be given as often as oats usu-
ally are and better warm than cold.
If both are refused, bran may be tried,
but no oats and but little hay. Some
times gentle exercise may be given in
the afternoon, and also next day. The
physic usually begins to operate next
morning, rarely takes effect in twelve
hours, frequently not for thirty.
When The physic begins to operate, the
horse should stand in the stable till it
sets, which may in twelve hours. The
stablcsshould be well Uttered behind
the stall, 10 receive the discharge, and
the horse should be covered with

What is the Grange?


The following extract from the Ma
ttonal Granger is an excellent illustra-
ton of what the Grange is and what
it accomplishes:
at is moral organizotion-the
virtues of honesty, integrity and tru-
gallty are taught and kept constantly
before the minds of the members, and
no one is entitled 10 membership who
is dishonest, imperative, vulgar or
profane.
at is social organization, for the
reason that the brothers and sisters
meet in happy unison, rejoicing to-
gether in that fraternal feeling which
has a tendency TO improve society and
make us willing to listen to the wants
aud relieve the distress of poor unfor-
tunate brothers and sisters.
at is an intellectual organization,
for in She Grange, brother strikes
hand with brother, sister with sister,
and each one strives to elucidate, en-
liven aud invigoratc each other.
at also helps to educate them in
their honse, home and field duties, as
we well know that good housewife
will, in the exemplification of her du-
ty, stimulate her sisters to go and do
likewise. Also, an attractive, pleas
4 I'll l. en-
TO inspire an enthusiasm which can
not be resisted, and which must make
an impression that cannot be easily
erased. So also with the farm; the
brother who raises two bushels of corn
or other crops, when the other raises
but one, and exemplifies, it must and
viii awaken desire in others to OBJ
tain a similar result"

Arc the Prices Of Bloodoa Stock too High :

A correspondent of the Ohio Farm
er recently complained that the prices
of improved stock were too high for
farmers, to which another writer in
the same paper replied as follows:
Let us look little at this matter in
detail. Well bred pigs, two 10 three
months old, may be had for say SIS
each, which at ten to twelve months
old would be worth that sum to the
butcher. Southdown and Longwool
rams have been slow sale at $40 to $50
each, and well bred Merinos not much
higher. do not speak of fancy show
animals, but such as are good in all es-
sential points and Of pure blood.
Good thoroughbred bulls can be
bought for $50 to $500. The increased
value of the progeny of any of these
animals for single year would pay
the purchase money. We know very
well that sales are made of animals of
fashionable strains at much higher
rates than we have mentioned, to per-
sons who have high reputation as
breeders OF fine stock. But / am re-
plying to the complaint of your cor
respondent, which had reference TO
such stock as the common farmers
want 10 buy, who care nothing about
fashionable strains, so they have pure
blood and good animal, which | say
they can secure at the prices have
named. And these prices insist, the
"common farmer" can well afford to
pay, and that as a matter of fact he
canrot afford to raise stock without
the use of pure bred sires, when they
can be had at these prices.
