JAPANESE SurERsTITIoN.--Japan people
are very superstitious, and have innumerable
signs and tokens by which to regulate their
conduct and beliefs. They never sweep the
rooms of a house Immediately after one of the
inmates have set out on journey-this would
sweep out all the luck with him. At mar
rage CEREMONY neither bride nor bridegroom
wear any clothing of purple color, lest their
marriage tie be soon loosed, as purple is the
most liable to fade. They have some curious
ideas in regard to the finger nails, which are
ont only at certain .imes When 9 person
loses tooth, either artificially at the hands
of dentist-Japanese "tooth carpenter -
or by forceps, or by accident, in order that
another may grow in the empty socket, the
tooth, If from the upper jaw, is buried under
the foundation Of the house il from the
lower, it is thrown upon the roof Of a house.
OF hundreds Of these superstitions, here are
few If woman steps over an egg she'll
will 60 mad If over razor, it will become
dull If over q milestone, it win be broken.
liza man should set his hair on fire, he will 90
mad. Children are told If they tell lie an
oni or an imp called the fengu will pull out
their tongues. Many a Japanese urchin has
spoken the truth for fear Of an oni supposed
to be standing by ready 10 run away with his
tongue. No sueh watchman seems to be set
before the unruly member of the seolding
wife. Ofthese edged tools that grow sharp
er by constant use y is goodly number in
Japan. When husband and wife are quarrel
ing, devil is believed to be standing between
them, encouraging them to go on from bad to
orse.
Sour MILK JEwELRy The latest triumph
of Yankee ingenuity is sour milk jewelry,
made by Kingman and Hodges of Lansfield,
Mass. The milk comes in the shape of curd
from the butter and cheese making counties
in New York, and looks, upon its arrival, a
great deal like popped corn, but before it
leaves their shop 1t undergoes a wonderful
change, and receives the name of American
coral. The secret in making it up is careful
ly guarded, but it is certain that it has to be
heated very hot, during which coloring mat
ter is introduced, followed by very heavy
pressure. Some Of 1t is colored black and
called jet, while some of it appears like cellu-
loid. 1t makes very handsome jewelry, and
is made into all kinds and styles known to the
trade.

A RICUI,T 7 RAJ.

MoSTANA was never blessed with better
prospects for good crop than this season.
Spring came early, the weather is fine, and
rather seasonabe, and the farmers. buoyed
nm with hope, enter into their work with
unusual interest Yet, while this is the
case. while we would not do aught to deter
\ united ant, determined effort to produce a
large crop, nor 90 forward to meet troubles,
we feel that it is well to be cautious. The
season may prove very productive, and no
thine may occur TO bring about disaster, yet
the old pest. the grasshopper, is liable to
swoop down upon our fields ere they ripen
with grain, and domolisll our bright antici
pations. Ii is therefore quite essential that
our farmers take such precaution as will, IN
Il measure, protect them in such an event.
A great diversity Of crops should be soWn.
lust rs though we were certain the dreaded
pests would come, for should we escape they
are about as profitable as devoting our whole
attention to any special crop, and much
safer. There are a number of crops that can
be produced whether we have hoppers or
not. ana are about as remunerative rs any.
Every farmer should take the precaution to
soM literally of these, that he may not be
left destitute in the event Of hoppers. The
vast region of plains lying between us and
Minnesota may, tor aught we know, be
covered with young hoppers, which may
migrate Monanaward. We do not antici-
pate that this is likely to occur, but it is well
to be prepared. Inmany seasons, late soWn
oats have escaped the ravages OF the hop
pers and made good crops. 1t would there
fore be advisable for the farmer tossoW a
r.asonable acreage of late oats. This would
oe another means of a safeguard, and one
that would i'll nowise det;in the work OF che
farm or lessen the yield. 1t is at least well
to give these matters a littleserious thought
and be prepared for the worst, even though
our fears should prove groundless.
