FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
stability in Farming.

Afl - AtHFH
There is no occupation Of man that
requires for its successful prosecution
more careful study, more confidence,
based upon knowledge, than agricul-
ture, We see the wanto Of faith in
the conduct Of large class of farm
crs, who reyer seem TO have hit upon
the rightlinc Of business. Now they
are dairying, having gone into it
when dairy stock was high, costing
large sum to start; but the product
having been depressed for a few
months, all confidence is gone in the
future of the dairy industry, and
their cowsare soldlat a heavy loss
Next they take to sheep but wool
soon has lis turn Of depression, and
confidence is lost in this industry,
and its abandonment follows. Hops
now become their hobby. Fifty
cents per pound is quite too allnring;
but when their crop comes, season
Of plenty has returned, and down
goes the price to ten cents. Woe
meets him here! They turn in dis
gust from their thrifty vines, and
seek their neighbors to whom they
sold their COWS. And now begins
the dairy again-this business of
battledore and shuttlecock, "evcry-
thing by turns and nothing long
These are the farmers who talk loud
est that farming does not pay. They
do not give it time to pay in any di-
rcction. Theyare to be pitied. They
have no faith in anything-they
float with the current.
How strange that they should not
see that every great agricultural in
dustry is founded on the wants of So
cicty, and that these needs continue
ever the same, the price Of the pro-
duct being governed entirely by the
demand and supply. Each branch
must have its fluctuation in price,
and the only way to determine the
profits is to take the average Of ten
years. This average will show fair
prices for dairy products, for wool, for
beef or mutton, for hops, for fruit,
and for every product Of the farm
The mole-eyed man who can only
sec one years returns, will always
find himself in the ebb of the tide.

Horse Items.

The London Live Stock Journal
says when from any cause there is
difficulty in getting supply of best
oats, which it considers the best feed
for horses, an excellent substitute
may be made Of crushed maize and
beans in the proportions Of two-thirds
of maize and one of beans, which ex-
actly afford the proportions Of flesh
forming and fattening food. Bran,
it also says, is a very valuable food
in a stable for reducing the inflam-
matory effect Of oats and beans
Made into mashes it has cooling
and laxative effect, but used in ex-
cess, especially in q dry state, it is
apt to form stony secretions in the
bowels of the horse. Stones, pro-
duccd from the excessive use of bran,
have been taken out of horses after
death weighing many pounds. When
sawed through they appear to be
composed of a hard crystalline mass,
deposited in regular annular rings,
resembling in appearance the con-
centric yearly rings of wood; they
prove to be composed Of phosphate Of
magnesia and amonia. The best
way to guard against it is to add
half pint to a pint of linseed, boiled
until quite soft, to the mash of each
horse. The same paper is authority
for saying that oats and beans are
the best food for putting muscular
flesh on q horse.

Kindness in Horse Training.

Nothing contributes so much in
modifying high temper in animals,
or in the enhancement Of their phys.
ical beauty and powersof productive
ness-as the case may be-than good
treatment and patient kindness
Prof. Wagner, speaking of its effect
in the training Of young horses, says:
Many think they are doing finely,
and are proud of their success in
horse training, by means of severe
whipping, or otherwise arousing and
stimulating the passions, and then
crushing the will through which the
resistance is prompted. No mistake
is greater than this, and there is
nothing that SO fully exhibits the
ability, judgment and skill of the
real horseman, as the care displayed
in winning instead of repelling tho
action Of the mind. Although 1t
may be necessary to Use the whip
sometimes, it should always BIO ap.
piled judiciously, and great caro-
should be taken not to arouse the
passions or excite the will to obsti.
macy. The legitimate and proper
Use of the whip is calculated to oper.
ate upon the sense of fear entirely
The affectionate and better nature
must be appealed to in training u

At Saratoga, the other day, a
Southern gentleman related the fol,
lowing story, which is too good to be
lost though it is a little rough on our
Episcopaltricnds. "Whcn railway
was opened, in Virginia on a certain
occasion a Bishop was called upon to
make the prayer. Nothing in any
Prayer Book, or in his usual private
devotlons, would exactly "applicate"
the occasion. So he wrote out a
prayer, and read it from manuscript.
This performance greatly astonished
some of the negroes who lowered on
The outskirts of the crowd. "Pomp,"
said one of the ebonies, "what does
you tink of dat" "Tinks," replied
Pomp, "dat dis is dc fust time dat de
Lord was ebber rcritten to on dc sub.
ject of railroads."

An Awful warming to smokers.


A remarkable illustration Of the
evil effects of tobacco smoking is af-
forded by a fact lately published by
the French Anti. Tobacco Association.
Two twin children (boys) were grow
ing quite satisfactorily, and were
about four years old, when one Of
them was taken i'll with some trifling
ailmcnt. A friend of the family, hap
pening to see the suffering infant,
unfortunately placed in its hands as
a kind Of plaything lighted pipe.
The child Immediately pulled away
atthe pipe, and, strange to say, ap-
peared to enjoy it thoroughly. The
amusement soon became a habit,
then necessity, and the child was
continually worrying the ncighbors
and even strangers in the streets to
give it tobacco. The effect of inces,
SAINT smoking on his constitution was
disastrous. While his brother rap
idly shot up into manhood, the pre-
mature smoker remained stationary
in his development, He is at the
present moment in reality young
man, but in appearance a puny in
FAINT, as stunted in intelligence as he
is in stature.-RuH Mall Gazette.

LETTER CARRIERS SALARY.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-A delegation
representing the letter carriers OF New
city made a statement before the House
Committee on Post Office and Roads to-
day in favor of special legislation in the
interest of the service in their city. They
asked that an increase be made for letter
carriers of New York, claiming that their
duties were more laborious than those OF
anv other city. Representative Freeman
elieited from them that they asked for
themselves alone, thinking that the pres
ent rate in other cities was sufficient -
The committee informed them that they
could not recognize distinction, and
that the compensation must be uniform.
The committee determined to postpone
the question until the next season.

VALUE OF EGGS AND POULTRY.

: Few persons realize the extent of
value of the poultry products of a coun-
try ike ours. A single hen represents.
on the average, probably not more than a
half dollar, and yet all the hens in the
country with their products, represent, an
annual valuation almost beyond compre-
hension. One poultry authority makes
the value of poultry and eggs annually
sold in the cities of Boston and New
York, alone, equal to six millions of dol
lars, and accordingto Government sta
tistics at Washington, our country i'm
ports nearly a million dollars worth Of
eggs alone every year to supply the de,
mand of our great cities. So it woulc
seem that there is no immediate danger
of overriding the poultry business,if righ
| ly conducted,
