The Evils Of Bad Sailing.

Our system of sailing meat makes it
unhealthy and distasieful. Why 10
We salt bones! Were they extracted
onc-third the salt would suffice, and
meat so cured would loose little Of its
nntriment, besides gaining in value.
Two-thirds Of the smoking might be
dispensed with, and the cause of indi-
gestibility great lessened. Modern
mechanical skill can surely contrive a
tool TO disbome ham, and let the salt
have equal access inside and outside.
The thick skin might be removed
with equal benefit. Custom might
claim the shape Of tie ham as impor-
tant, but this objection would give
way before the great superiority OF
the meat. Farmers would find profit
in il for their own household. a
boned turkey is always attractive.
When raised far from market a turkey
honed and slightly sailed and smoked
would find ready sale at remunera-
tive price. The Mcxicans cure beef

plant evergreens, not simply on the

All stock should be kept strong in
order to be successful.
The ants consume a great deal of
honey, and should be made to travel
from their sweet and warm quarters.
Every hive should contain about two
thousand cubic inches Ia little more
than solid foot) in the breeding de-
partment.
1t is claimed that the newly settled
northern counties of Michigan have
the largest honey harvests in the Uni
ted States
The nearer the hives are to the
ground the better. Old bricks or inch
strips of wood set under the hives
would be cheaper and answer the pur-
pose much better.
The. San Bernardnino Times says
there is no market for honey. in that
town. The best white sage, in Sec
ton boxes, can hardly be given away.
Never double swarms or stocks of
bees in the fail, but attend to that and
make them strong during the summer
by taking brood from strong stocks
and giving it 10 the weak.
The sawdnst about the hives, under
laid with brick, by keeping the grass
down, serves an excellent purpose, as
it enables one 10 see at once any bees
that fall upon it, and thus insure
against loss of queen.
No book or treatise can be substitu-
ted for that real thorough knowledge
of bees that is absolutely necessary to
success, and which can be obtained
only through experience. Books.
wien they give expression to the ex
perience Of others, are as such really
valuable, and will render assistance ia
connection with practical experience,
but viii not without it.

Food for Fruit Trees.

For peach, apple and pear trees there
is no better plant food than common
ashes scattered over the surface OF the
soil under the tree. Cindcrs from a
blacksmith shop or foundry are excel
lent for the apple, pear and cherry.
Common salt scattered over the sur
face of the soil and under pear and
apple trees about as thickly rs you do
wheat when seeding, is highly rccoin-
mended az an antidotc for blight
This also secures protection against
the aphis on pears and other irui'
trees. The aphis is small woody IN

and pear trees, frequently destroying

Now we have heard q great deal Of
talk about this matter. and there has
not been anything particularly ii,siuuat-

however been the universal expression
among people of both parties. that the
result Of the recount was utterly uuex-
pected and unprecedented except in
eases where there has bccn Intentional
fraud on part Of the election officers. This
recount shows that there were eight
mistakes made in the single precinct Of
Tuscnrora, aud what Is remarkable
the mistakes were all made in favor of
Helms. Now the officers of election ut
that place were w. I. Smith. y. Tobias

and no one will for a moment suppose
that they or either Of them would be

they state that the couut was carefully
made. and that the tailies were kept by
accurate clerks.
Another fact which is very significant
IN this connection is that the re
count Of the vote on Constable in this

these eight mistakes were made against
Dir. Green. di>closrs the fact that there
was only one mistake made in counting
that vote. The face Of the returns
