DOMESTIC.

TIE FAMILY MEDICINE CHEsr.-We
don't believe in carrying drug shop
about wherever We go, nor OF having
the contents of one in our bed room
closet. But every wise mother should
keep at hand a few remedies, which
can be safely administered before the
docter comes, and often render his
coming unnecessary.
Among these are camphor, paragoric
and peppermint. The first should al
WAYS be used with care, an overdose act
ing unpleasantly upon the nervous
system. All medicines, however, should
be cautiously handled.
Lavender and valerlan arc excellent
as nervines, if there be restlessness
and inability to sleep on the part Of an
invalid or aged person.
Hot drops and Jamaica ginger, and a
burning compound called composition.
should be in the family chest. So
should can of the best and strongest
mustard, and roll, too, of the capsicum
plasters, which may be obtained at any
apOthecary's.
Besides these, if there are children
addicted to the use of knives, there
should be on the mothers shelf box
of some good healing salve and a bottle
of pain killer for bruises. Every mother
needs little knowledge of practical
surgery, for her boys are not bo, ish if
they never meet with accidents.
Ii babe is seized with convulsions,
put it into warm bath and send at
once for physician. If a person be
scalded or blistered by burn, wrap
the affected part at once in flour and
exclude the air.
Whatever else you have not in the
house, be sure never TO lose your pre-
sence of mind.

AGRICULTURE.

The TREE PEDDLER.- ia no
greater humbug practiced upon the
credulity Of the people than the offering
Of new fruits by tree agents and nur-
serymen, as the last thing that was ever
discovered or planted. Nineteen out of
every twenty Of all these new fruits
are entirely worthless. One nursery
man has an apple that is superior to all
others, another pear that no one can
do without, free from blight and an
immense bearer and the fruit of finest
quality. Another has a currant, a
strawberry, or raspberry, all entirely
indispensable to the unsuspecting far
mer. And still others have grapes that
ripen early, are very large, delicious,
and just the thing to supplant all Others
for all purposes. One has a cherry that
will take the place of the Early Rich
mond and the English Morello. All
these will do well, according to the
opinions of the several owners of the
humbug, in any and all climates and
localities, like the patent medicines
warranted to cure any and all diseases.
One man, whose almost exclusive stock
of evergreens is the European larch,
recommends its. planting without limit.
Another has supplied himself abund-
antly with the Utah hybrid cherry,
which is really not cherry at all but
very inferior small plum, and that is
the cherry that every body must have.
Our common wild plums are trans
planted and nursed, and larger stock
propagated - some significant name
given them, and they are then heralded
to the world as Indispensable, high
quality, large size, curculio proof, and
indeed possessed with more good quail
ties than any and all other plums COM
bined. The result of all this is, the
farmers pay out thousands Of dollars
every year for stock that is not only
worthless and known to be worthless
by the vendors, but importent time is
lost in waiting for the results that are
so boastingly promised, and only. after
several years waiting, TO find how they
have been swindled.

Arsenic in Vulcanized Rubber Shoppers
and Tu6es.-It is well known that vul-
caniZeG rubber is unfit for several kinds
of experiments, such as where il is re-
quired to determine the sulphur in
gases and other substances, where the
rubber may give up some of its sulphur
to vitiate the results. Filhol has also
found arsenic in rubber shoppers, which
makes them unit for use in testing for
this poison. In Schneider's test the ar
senic is converted into the volatile ar
senious chloride by distilling the sub
stances with a mixture of common salt
and sulphurlc acid. In making this
test, in a flask closed with a perforated
rubber stopper, through which the gas
delivery tube passed, he found sulphur
ill the distillate. He suspected that the
arsenic was derived from the rubber
stopper, and therefore repeated the test
without the use of any rubber and
found no arsenic. He also found that
hydrochloric acid gas, when passed
through vulcaniZed rubber tubes, also
took up perceptible quantities of arsenic.
The author does not state the color OF
the tube uor name OF manufacturer,
which is of some importance, as the ar
senic was probably an accidental and
not Intentional constituent of that par
ticular rubber and was contained in the
sulphur.

VEGETABLES IN The FARMERS FAMILY.
For years past some English and
Scotch gardeners have been experiment
ting in the growth of the pea with mar
velous success. Varieties have been
produced that should never be absent
from the farmers daily meals. The to-
maio is equally good as a tootbsome
condiment. The onion, also, although
in many farmers families considered a
luxury is, according to eminent ph ysi-
clans great corrective and Alternative
of the human system when freely con-
sumed, and a preventive as well as a
remedy for some affections of the kid
news that are becoming so alarmingly
frequent among our active men of mid
die life. The same influence upon the
liver is attributed to the free use of the
tomato. Equally effective is the celery
plant upon the nervous system. But
the great questions of food and economy
are the ones which come nearest home.
1t is of no use TO talk of the heart and
the moral senses until the stomach is
right. To have that right it must eat
more and better vegetables.

BEST Soil FOR BARLEY.-Barley sue
ceeds best on lands that are lighter or
more sandy than those adapted to wheat
or corn: nevertheless, the crop is bene-
fitted by manuring the land and rem
dering it mellow by the use of the cul-
tivator and harrow before sowing.
Barnyard manure thoroughly rotted
and incorporated into the soil is benefi-
cial, but il should never be applied di-
rectiy in the crop. CalcareOus matter
is beneficial to the quality of barley,
and hence this crop has long been ex-
tensively cultivated on the chalky lands
of Great Britain. Prof. johnson says
the effect of soil on barley is known to
all farmers in that country, hence the
terms "barley land" and "wheat land"
are the usual designations for light and
heavy soils. On clay lands the produc-
ton of barley is greater, but il is of
coarser quality and does not malt so
well. On loans it is plump and full of
meal, and on light chalky soils the crop
is light, but the grain is thin in the
skin, of rich color, and well adapted
to mailing, which of course enhances
its value, as nearly all that is raised in
this country is used for malt. In this
country and in England it is rarely
used as bread. Land that is heavy and
rich will doubtless increase the yield
of the crop, but the increased quantity
would be at the expense of the quality
of tn e grain for mailing purpose.

The Silky INdrmoset.-The marmoset Is
a South American monkey, about the
size of a squirrel. The silky marmOset
is OF a golden yellow color, the fur
being very soft and silky and forming q
kind of name upon the neck. The feet
are five toed and have sharp claws; the
tail is long and bushy, but not prehen-
sile, and the body is covered with soft
woody fur. 1t is easily tanned and makes
an interesting and affectiOnate pet. 1t
is not so intelligent as the other mon
KEYS, and its constitution is so delicate
that il easily dies from the exposure of
even temperate climates. Ii is peculiar
ly sensitive to cold, and likes TO have its
house well furnished with soft and
warm bedding, which il piles up in a
corner and under which it delights TO
hide itself. They are very fond of fiies
and will often take fly from the hand
of the visitor. 1t has strange liking
for hair. One of these little C. eatures,
which was the property OF gentleman
adorned with a large bushy beard, was
wont 10 creep to its masters face, and
TO nestle among the thick masses of
his beard. Its food is both animal and
vegetable i'm character; the animal por-
ton being chiefly composed OF various
insects, eggs, and il may be an occa-
sional young bird; and the vegetable
diet ranging through m st of the edible
fruits. CockrOaches are favorite
article of food, and gold fish are pecu-
liarly relished.
