Butter Protection.

Butter is a substance extremely
sensitive TO surrounding influences,
and any odors in the vicinity where
it is stored are rapidly absorbed,
even if it is in closed frkin. Great
complaint is often made by the pur-
chasers Of gllt-edged butter pro-
duced from the famous dairies i'll the
vicinity of Boston, that the enor-
mously high-prieed article is soon
spoiled after delivery to the custom
err. Aud no wonder! It is often
placed in an unciean ice-chests along
with cooked or uncooked fish, or
meats, and other odorous bodies, and
it soon smells and tastes like the uA-
savory substances with which it is
associated. If not placed in the ice
chest, it is often put into the cellar
with decomposing vegetables or
meats, and hence the delicate taste
and odOr are soon changed.

If good English hay be taken as
the standard Of comparison, then TO

ment as ten pounds of hay would re-

pounds; green clover, forty-five to
fifty pounds wheat straw, forty

these are approximate results, which
various conditions control to a great

Age of the Horse.

The average age of the horse
when allowed to live without the
risk of accident or disease, which he
incurs in his usual work, is about
twenty-five years. Instances of far
greater longevity are recorded on
good authority, and there is reason
to believe that occasionally he has
reached thirty-fve. or even forty
years; but these are rare eNcep-
tions. and there are few which live
beyond the twenty-eighth year. while
a large proportion die before the
tWenty-fifth.

Soil and Manure.

Most soils are improved by the
application of suitable manure, but
the kind required varies with the ma
ture of the soil. Lime is q good
manure for clayey soils, and gyp-
sum for sandy ones, because the
former retains, and the latter at
tracts moisture.

it has been acknowledged that DR.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy has no equal
in speedy and permanently curing
~cold In the head and all catarrhal

The same uncertainty prevails in
Europe that existed last week. On
Thursday last, Lord Derby resigned
his position as minister of Foreign
Affairs. As he was the Conservative
member OF the British Cabinet, this
was justly considered as a triumph of
the war party in England, and as
result, that war would fellow imme-
diately; consequently there was ex-
element in the provision markets of
all the large cities, and prices materi-
ally advanced. The resignation
caused considerable excitement in all
the European capitals, and for time
it seemed certain that the conference
of nations would be abandoned; but
a better feeling now prevails, and
there are expectations OH the part Of
many that Russia will make such
concessions as will satisfy England.
In the meantime England has called
out her reserves, and sent a circular
letter to all the governments Of Eu-
rope, summarizing the recent cores
pondence between England and Rus
STA, and declaring, in substance, that
Russias refusal TO consent to Eng
lands demand to place the treaty as
whole before the Congress, involves
departure from the principles of all
previous treaties. Taking England's
side OF the story, Russia is OF course
entirely to blame; but while many Of
the European dispatches indicate that
Russia will recede from her position,
to us it seems that her movements in
the vicinity of CoDstantinople, and
evidences of an al lance with Turkey,
point in different direction.

The investigation in the case of
Polk, the Doorkeeper OF the House,
shows that his troubles grew out of a
desire to accommodate Democratic
Congressman with places for their
political pets. 1t was shown before
the committee that many OF the SUI
pernumerary appointments which he
made, were made at the earnest solic-
itation Of Congressman who promised
appropriations Of money to cover all
deficiencies; and now some, even Of
the Republican members OF the House,
it is said, we are sorry to say, are try
ing to excuse him for violating the
laws, and making his office kind OF
huckstering shop for the benefit OF
political bummers. 1t may be posi-
BILE that Polk as more sinned against
than SHINING" but the time has come,
in fact always was, when no man
should be retained In Office who can
be influenced, by any means, to
squander money that belongs to the
public. Beverly Douglass, who dis
graced himself and the nation by
raising drunken row in the halls OF
Congress, Is no worse a representa-
tive than the members who, by their
opportunities, influenced Doorkeeper
Polk to violate the law, and the peo-
pie should see to it that such men are
permitted to remain at home in the
future.

Oar Schools.

According to the report of the
County Superintendent of Schools,
one hundred and Thirty teachers were
regularly employed in the schools of
the County during the winter. omit
ting the incorporated towns and the
City Of Plymouth. The average
wages paid teachers was $1.S1 per
day. The total number of pupils en-
rolled was 5,O57. The average daily
attendance was 3,776. German town.
ship paid the highest average wages
for teaching-S1.96 per day, and
Bourbon the lowest $161 per day.
Green township shows the best aver
age daily attendance. The average
length of the winter term was &c
days. The longest term was in Ger
man township, the average being
100 days, the shortest in Green town.
ship, the average being GO days. The
Superintendent says, "our teachers,
as body, deserve the highest CON-
pliments due worthy laborers for
their hearty and cheerful acquies-
ence in all endeavors to elevate our
schools and render their labor more
renumerative and agreeable. The
schools of county are just what the
teachers make them, and n County
Superintendent and Trustees are
powerless to make good and efficient
schools If they have not a noble
corps of teachers upon whom they
can rely with safety" We do not
agree with the superintendent that
"the schools Of our county are just
what the teachers make them"
Without good teachers it is impossi-
BILE to have good schools; but the
best teacher will be unable to accom-
plish but little without the cooper
alton of parents and trustees. Many
times the parents need to be educa-
ted fully as much as the children, not
in the same way, of course but edu-
Gated to understand that If the
school is successful, the teacher
must have their sympathy and en-
enlargement, and that the children
must be taught at home to obey the
teacher. If parents would visit the
schools ofrener, consult the teacher
when reports ofnegligence. partiality,
or cruelty. come to their ears, and
fully understand the aims, plans, and
intentions Of the teacher before con-
demning them, the schools in many
places would be better. We do not
know that this is the case in Mar
shall County. We hope that parents
and school officers take the interest
in the schools that they should, and
that with good teachers, we can have
good schools at every school house
in the county.

The Atlantic Constitution of Marcel
26 says that on the day before one Of
the banks of that place commenced
paying checks in gold. During the
day about 81 900 was thus paid out,
most of the customers preferring to
take only few pieces of gold and
the remainder in greenbacks. One
man>came back during the day and
and deposited $50 in gold which he
had drawn from the bank. The presi-
dent of the bank, on being asked why
the experiment was made, said that a
few days before one of their custom
ers had deposited 81 900 in gold, dol
lar for dollar, and the bank corclu-
ded to pay it out in the same way.
There had been no anxiety on the
part of their customer to obtain
gold beyond little temporary de-
mand on account Of the novelty, and
the bank would continue to pay gold
over its counters to all customers
who desired it. One or two other
banks in the city have announced
their purpose to do the same thing,
and the question arises, why cannot
all do it, and thus solve the question
of resumption at once?

A significant feature OF Banning's
army bill is that it repeats the Sec
ton of the revised statutes which
prohibits the appointment Of ex-con-
federates to the army. As Congress
Is full of ex-confederates there is,
perhaps, no longer any reason for ex-
Guiding them from the army, but it is
somewhat remarkable that the very
bill which proposes to retire or legis-
late large number OF loyal officers
out of the army should at the same
time open the doors for the admis-
sion of ex-confederates. -Indianapo-
