Poultry Cleanliness at This Sea

After the hens have been occupy
ing the old nests more or less, for six
or eight months, in most poultry
houses there will have accumulated a
deal of filth, and in many cases ver-
min will abound in and around these
traps for lice.
Neglect to see to the timely cleans
ing of both fowls and nests, when the
hot weather approaches, leaves the
laying of broody hens at the mercy
of these myriads of parasites, which
now riot among the old straw and
line the nest-boXcs from bottom to
top.
We have dutifully urged upon the
attention of our readers the impor-
tancc that attaches to preventing this
nuisance from getting foot-hold in
the fowl house, and especially among
the laying hens.
To say nothing of the annoyance
thus caused to the poor fowls them
selves, the effect of such neglect can
not easily be remedied. When once
these pests get established in the
cracks and creyices Of the nests and

If any of our friends have thus neg

now is the time to fumigste the hous-

It 10 stated that the Indians who were
captured on the plains few years a.
60 and sent to st. Augustine Florida,
have greatly improved in condition
and become quite civilized under the
attentions Of their capt0rs and teach
ere. The first year they appeared to
be untameable as tigers, but patient
effort finally had its reward in their
succumbing to the influences of civil
ization. Their education has pro-
gressed well, and all can read and
write. Indeed, seventeen Of them are
attending the Hampton University
for colored people, and exhibit high
er degree Of intelligence than could
have been expected Of those, 80 lately
deemed hey ond the pale of moral or
educational influences. The success
of this effort to tame the savages ON
tho plains has encouraged the philan-
thropists to ask that the Interior De-
partment send fifty more Indians to
st. Augustine to be trained to be men
instead Of blood thirsty ssvsges.

THE DAILY PAPER OF OLD.-Many
people think that the story paper, as
many of the mawkish and sense curd-
ling weeklies are named, is of modern
invention. But it is very old, on the
contrary, far elder than tie newspaper
proper, which dates from the fifteenth
century. The Actn Diur'a0, or Acta
PabHcd, of ancient Rome, the first APP
proach to anything like newspaper of
which we have any record. contained.
in addition to the enumeration of births,
deaths, and marriages, ediats Of magis-
trates, reports of trials, and accounts of
foreign wars, love tales of very warm
and gushing character. They were not
quite so bad as those we have nowadays,
they contained more nature, though
less morality, thing unknown, in our
sense, until a century or so since, and
they were read with avidity by all the
Roman women who could read at all.
The Actd was prepared under the d.
rection of aensors who were chiefly con-
cerned with the politics-not the ethics
of the sheet. They were not distribu-
ted, as may be inferred, but were posted
in some public place, and read by those
who were sufficiently interested in cur
rent news to seek them. Women de
voured the amatory chronicles and the
announcements very much as
they do now. Indeed. the women of an j.
cient Rome and modern America have
not changed materially. The sex. in all
ages and countries, has been afflicted
with good deal of sameness.
