A Brave Sailor.

THOMAS HUMPHREYS was as brave an
English sailor as ever furled sail. He
was crossing Carmarthen Bay. few
weeks ago, in the customs boat, with
Mrs. Bydder Gan officers wife) and q
companion, when a sudden gust of
wind struck the sail, and they found
themselves struggling in the water.
He first endeavored to support his COM
rade, who was an awkward swimmer,
but the poor fellow could not be kept
atioat. He then told the woman to
cling to the boat, while he swan around
to see what could be done. He got his
knife and opened it with his teeth, cut
away the cordage, and, after consider
able exertion, dismasted the craft and
righted her, but as she was full of
water, they could not get into her. He
therefore placed the mast across the
boat, and got the womar's arms over
it on one side while he went and hung
on at the other. Mrs. Bydder then
said, EVERY one for himself" and
begged him to leave her and to save
himself, which he could easily have
done, being only about thirty yards
from the shore, but he knew that if he
left the woman she would be drowned.
He remained by her, at the cost Of his

Good wheat crops seldom, if ever, fol-
low hard winters. The European wars
are probably over. The depleted pri-
vate and public treasures in grain
growing Europe will stimulate to the
production of the crop which will
make the quickest return. This will
be wheat and barley. In this country,
last fall, larger breadth of fall wheat
was sown than usual, stimulated by the
prospect of protracted European
war. Corn is low, with prospect of
large surplus being kept over, as
there is no bright prospect for any adj
vance in pork. Ali the indications are
therefore in favor of low-priced bread
stuffs. And if the farmers will sow,
they must do it with cheap labor, so as
to stand as low as fifty cents per bushel.
The Prairie Frrn,cs says:
"There was an immense breadth of
winter wheat sown ali over the West
last autumn, farmers being stimulated
thereto both by the foreign demand for
wheat and also by the previous large
crop. So far the wheat has wintered
well; and with further seasonable
weather we may look for another full
crop throughout the West. Farmers
have also made preparations for put
ting in large area of spring wheat.
Another crop like that of last year
would carry the price far below the
cost of production; for the present as
pect of European affairs would seem to
lead to the belief that Russia, our
principal competitor in wheat, will soon
find her southern ports open to export.
1t is hardly to be expected that the
European wheat districts will suffer
from short crops for three seasons in
succession, and therefore the conclu-
sion is a natural one that we, with a
large crop this season, must look for
low prices. "-IowG State Register.

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

In applying lime to the barn-yard or
stable manure it should be air-slacked.
Caustic lime has tendency to draw
out the ammonia, and should never be
applied on the dung-pile.-Prairie
Farmer.
A VERY fair oak stain may be pro-
duced by equa. parts of potash and
pearlash, say two ounces of each to
about quart of water. Keep it corked
up in bottle, and it is always ready for
use; if it strikes too deep color, add
more water.
RUST IN TIN.-To prevent rusting of
tin, rub fresh lard over every part of
the dish and then put it in a hot oven
and heat it thoroughly Thus treated,
any tinware may be used in water con-
stantly and remain bright and free
from the rust indefinitely.
LADIES are now making rugs that
closely resemble the popular but expen-
sive Turkish variety. They select a
yard and a half of some rich dark pat
tern of Brussels carpet and ravel it out,
then with two coarse steel needles they
knit up these travelled threads.
STOCK. Humanity demands that the
best of attention be given to live stock.
To keep every animal well-fed. clean
and comfortable is profitable and
kindly act. Cows should not be allowed
to stand or lie in filth. Any animal
kept in such a condition is disgrace
to any man and direct injury to his
pocket-book.
SOME one wants to know how to
make good apple dumplings. Try this
recipe: To one quart of flour add two
teaspoons of baking-powder, pinch of
salt, one tablespoon of lard; make same
as usual; instead of boiling, place them
in steamer over a kettle Of boiling
water, cover tight, steam until the APP
pies are tender. You will find this to
be good Chicago Inter- Occam.
SPINACH AND EGGs.-Carefully look
over and wash the spinach in several
waters; boil for about ten minutes in
sailed water; take up and place on the
back of a sieve, that it may drain; press
any remaining water from the spinach,
and put into a frying-pan with two or
three tablespoonful of butter, Il little
salt and pepper; keep constantly STIR
ring and cutting with a knife until
quite dry. Poach some eggs; lay them
on the spinach and serve at once.
APPLE JAM.-The following is an ex-
cellent way to preserve winter apples
for spring and summer use: Peel and
remove the cores from juicy apples;
slice thinly and put into preserving
pan with three-quarters of pound Of
white sugar to each pound of the
fruit; add little water to prevent
their burning, and few cloves, little
ginger and the rind of a lemon tied up
in Il piece of coarse muslin; stir with 4
wooden spoon over quick fire for
from twenty to twenty-five minutes
careful that the jam does not burn.
When cold, put into jars and paste or
tie down with thick paper, or it may be
put into cans and sealed.

The Trapper's Enemy.

A Winnipeg (Manitoba) correspond
ent writes as follows: ut must not be
imagined that the fur-hunter has it all
his own way. There are animals that
beat him at his own game, his greatest
enemy being the wolverine, or North
American glutton. This curious ami
NAL is rather larger than fox, with a
long body, stoutly and compactly made,
mounted on exceeding short legs of
great strength. His broad feet are
armed with powerful claws, and his
track in the snow is as large as man s
fist. The shape of his head and his
hairy coat give him much the appear
ance of a shaggy brown dog. During
the winter he obtains his livelihood by
availing himself of the labors of the
trapper; and such serious injuries does
he inflict that he has received the name
from the Indians of kekwaharkess, or
The Evil One With untiring per-
severance he hunts day and night for
the trail of man, and when it is found
follows it unerringly. Arriving at one
of the wooden traps, or dead falls, he
avoids the door, but speedily tears
open an entrance in the back, and
seizes the bait or animal with impunity.
In this way he demolishes the whole
series of traps, and when once VOL
VERNE has established himself in trap
ping walk, the hunters only chance Of
success is to change ground, and build
a fresh lot Of traps, trusting to secure a
few furs before the new path is found
out by his industrious little enemy

A Debatable Question.

While much has been written concerning the
use of "put up" medicines, the question ts
still an open one, and demands of the people
q careful consideration. The salient points
1st-Are the sick capable of determining their
real condition, the nature of their malady,
and selecting the proper remedy or means OF
curea 2d-Can q physician, no matter how
skillful, prepare universal remedy. adapted
to the peculiar ailments of large class of
people. residing in different ATTITUDES, and
subject to various climatic infuences2 In
answer to the first proposition, We would say,
diseases are named and known by certain
"signs" or symptoms, and, rs the mother does
not need physician to tell her that her child
has the encouragement, Or indicate remc-
dy, so people when afflicted with many of the
symptoms concomitant to "impure blood, -
"torpid liver" and "bad Digestion" require
no other knowledge of their condition, or the
remedy indicated, than they already possess.
that diseases are sectionally peculiar, and that
their treatment must therefore vary, and yet
quinine, morphine, podophyllin and hundreds
of other remedies are prescribed IN all countries
to overcome certain conditions Is it not, there
fore, self-evidcnt that a physician whose large
experience has made him familiar with the
MANY phases incident to all impurities Ut the

prepare series of remedies exactly adapted

above requirements. Many physicians pre-
scribe them in their practice. His Golden

A Prospective Wheat Crop.

JUST as our thinking farmers are
abandoning the cultivation of wheat as
improbable, we fear the past year,
though disastrous in some respects,
will upset many good resolutions.
Last year the entire Northwest was
blessed with a good crop, and all were
sanguine of good prices. As the bulk
of the wheat has gone to market, let
our farmers answer if the wheat crop
has brought the profitable return they
anticipated. Has there been the gem
eral revival of trade which many san
guine papers and merchants would fain
have the people believe? Prosperity
does not come from wheat crops. But
what of the futuree 1t is about time
for farmers to calculate what kinds of
crop will occupy their fields the APP
preaching season. Will it be wheat?
What is the outlook on that subject?
