A New Railroad Pass.

4 new style of railroad pass has just
been patented by railroad man which is
something of novelty. The idea is TO
provide pass which can be used by none
save the person to whom it is issued, and
the pass seems to meet the requirement.
Around the pass proper is a margin, with
a description which, by the use OF a
punch, may be made to fit anybody.
After the word cage" appear series OF
figures out Of which the person issuing
the pass punches the figures correspond
ing with the age of the one to whom the
pass is issued. Then after the head
''shape" follew the words "slim, . q me-
dium," "stout," ''corpulent." After
"color of hair" come the designations
" black" 4" brown" "gray," light" "
auburn" After color OF eyes F" come
" black" brown" 'grsy," blue, )"
hazel" ;" and after beard" the terms
"none," full side," chin,
moustache." Thus, supposing the man
to whom the pass is issued be a dark.
slim man, with black eyes and beard Ia
Napoleon, the issuer of the pass would
punch the word " slim !" under &" shape"
" black under "eyes" and hair"
moustache and "chin" under
g beard" The Y,ass could then be trans
ferred only to man CHANGING to answer
just the above description. The idea is
certainly novel one indianapolis

Culture CT Cabbage.


A prominent farmer OF New York
State writes:
Since the advent of the cabbage worm
almost everyone has been at a loss to
know what to do to raise a few cabbages.
Some have tried one thing and some tried
another, and mostly to no purpose. Last
year | set about three hundred and
thirty fine plants ard picked off the
worms by hand as they came, for about
two weeks, which took about two hours
each day. This seeming to be too much
work, and as have well of soft water
near by, | took five-pail kettle, set it
near the well and put into it a pint of
soft soap and the same of salt and then
hlled 1t up with water. let this stand
till the water was warmed by the sun,
and then, after stirring it up well, took
my water pot and applied it at the rate
of about gallon to forty heads, putting
1t in the center. | did this every day,
and the result was l had the incest and
hardest cabbage that were ever raised.
l had no trouble to get ten cents per
head, although cabbage was very cheap
here. Some make practice of buying
their plants, but would not give one
cent per hundred unless knew what |
was getting. 1 use Comstock & Co.'s
Premium Flat Dutch. They are the
best late cabbsges can find.

BEWARE OF A COLD

Heat IS lite-Cold IS Death.
There is no greater fallacy than the
opinion held by many, particularly the
young and strong and vigorous, that
winter--especially g sharp, frosty one,
with plenty OF snow-is the most healthy
season of the year. Very few persons
seem to realize the fact that cold is the
condition of death, and that in both
warm and cold climates, it Is our uncon-
scious effort to maintain our bodily heat
at temperature of 9S deg. that wears
us out. To this temperature, called
blood heat, every cubic inch of oxygen
/ that serves to vitaIzs our blood must
be raised by our own bodily heat, or life
ceases Since in cold weather the main
tenance OF a sufficiently elevated bodily
I temperature becomes very often a diff.
Guilty too great for our strength, the
advent of a severe winter is really more
/ to be dreaded than that OF pestilence.
The saying, 6 Heat is life-cold Is
DEATH" has a striking illustration and
confirmation in the reports now regu-
larly submitted by DR.. Russell to the
/ Glasgow sanitary committee. The death
rate rises and falls with the regularity o:
the thermometer. So many degrees less
heat, so many more deaths, and vice
versa. In a recent fortnightly report
DR.. Russell says: The death rate in
the first week OF the fortnight was
twenty-one, and in the second week
twenty-five. The mean temperature in
the former week was 4O8 deg. Fahren-
heit, and in the latter 395 deg" He
attributes the low rate of the first week
to the high mean temperature of the
preceding fortnight, which was 27.3 deg,
and adds: "This is a good illustration
of law which we frequently observe in
these reports of temperatures and death
rates-thst week of low temperature
produces rise IN mortality the week
following"
In our climate it would probably be
difficult to find a more frequent cause
of serious ailments than taking cold.
Whatever weak place we have, whatever
constitutional disorder we be subject to,
cold will surely discover. We take cold /.
because our vitality is too low to ward
off the effects of the reduced tempera-
ture around us. As matter of the first
then, 10 resist cold and the .
varions arrangements of the system con-
it is necessary by proper 4
nutrition to maintain our natural ami .
NAL heat; second, to retain this heat /
by sufficient quantity of clothing
third, to regulate with care the temper /
sture of the air we breathe. Contrary to /
the opinion current among lovers of cold /
weather, fire in bedroom in the winter
is cheaper and better than doctors bill; /
for, owing to our inactive condition dur /
ing sleep, the circulation of the vitalizing
blood is both slow and imperfect, and
hence the danger of taking cold by
cold air il greatly increased.
A cold is the beginning of everything
that is bad. If anyone conscious ofhaving
caught one feels cold chills creeping up
the back, let him apply mustard plaster
10 the bottom of the spine and lower part
IF the back at once; and by 20 doing he
may avert dangerous illness before it is
100 late aud medical advice can be pro
cured. 10 should never be forgotten that
heat is life--cold is death"

William NJ. Tweed.

The life of the notorious Boss -
Tweed, whose death in Ludlow street
Jail, New York, occurred Friday, is
summed up in the following:
William Marcy Tweed was born in
New York, April 8, 1923, and was conse-
quently 55 years old at the time of his
death. He learned the trade of chair
making and afterwards was admitted to
the bar. In 1923 he became an alder
man, in 1853 congressman, and from
that time until 1877 he held some Office
or other, principally local, although from
1867 to 1871 he was state senator. In
April, 1870, he was appointed commits
sioner of the department of ofPublic works
in New York city, and while holding
this office, Tsmmany Ring, of which
Tweed was the leader, came into special
notoriety because OF the barefaced robbery
OF the city treasury, particularly in con-
nection with the construction OF the new
city court house. The outrage became so
palpable that on October %, 1874, Tweed
tand many others) was arrested in a
civil suit brought in behalf of the peo-
pie. His bail was fixed at 81 900, 900,
which he furnished. In November he
was reelected to the state senate, but
did not take his seat. On December
10th he was arrested on criminal
charge of fraud, but released on $4,000
bail. January 80, 1873, the first suits
were tried, but the jury disagreed. No
vember 10Th he was found guilty of fraud
and sentenced to twelve years irnprison-
ment and to pay fine of $12,5O0.
lie was sent to BlackwelPs Island, and
was subsequently, disbarred. April
7th, 1875, a suit was commenced
against him to recover, for the people,
100000. Various other smaller suits
were brought, but the above are the
principal June 18th, 1875, the
court of appeals liberated him from
imprisonment, claiming that the
lower court had exceeded its authority
IN passing cumulative sentence. Tweed
was then ordered to find bail in the sum
of So 00o, 900 for the civil suit pending
against I'M This he was unable to do,
and was sent to Ludlow street Jail. On
December 4th, while he was visiting bis
residence in the custody of two keepers,
he escaped. He was re-captured in 1877.

FARM AND HOME.


How to Use reruiizefs
The Scientific American, excellen
authority, says ON this subject;
In general, the use of a single fertilizer
will be found profitable as farm prac-
tice only in connection with manure or
on land in strong heart, and the poor
farmer will never succeed in enhancing
the cropping capacity of his farm to an
increased profitable position through the
use of one fertilizer alone. Much of the
discredit which artificial fertilizers have
won has risen from non-ap appreciation
OF the fact that they cannot supersede
dung, but must be used in connection
with other plant food. A superphosphate
or a nitrogeuous, or potassic manure
can always find place on farm, but csn
never take the place of manure in farm
practice, and the sooner this false hope is
destroyed, the better il will be for all con-
cerned. A mixture of chemicals or other
elements containing the food that plants
require does, however, offer promise OF
practical results, on the farm, and can
be offere1 in competition with dung, SO
far as the result in crops Is concerned.
This, then, is the promise of the com
plete fertilizer; if the farmer has dung
sufficient for five acres only and wishes
TO cultivate ten or twenty or more, in
addition to what his dung supply will
allow, then he must rely on the complete
farFflf1or L. a 70
what his dung viii cover. The exPe-
rience of ages has shown the reliability
of dung; all the best modern expert
ments we have show the efficacy of
mixture of chemicals in taking the place
of dung, provided they supplement the
soil supply 50 as to furnish to the
crops the elements shown by analysis
to exist in dung. We cannot fairly
compare supsrphosuhate in its results
with dung a single element with
complete fertilizer. The recognition of
this fact by farmers will make q revolu-
tio1 in farming, and will disperse much
of the fog which interested parties have
thrown about the question of fertilizers.
In final word, all the best experiences
and experiments, as we interpret their /
meaning, point certainly to the facts we
here claim, that the single fertilizer
element must find its profitable use in I
connection with other manures, wkile the
complete fertilizers alone can be expected (
t) furnish material in form for farm
practice, and is the only form of artificial |
fertilization as yet discoverd which offers I
a means OF extending an arabic land be-
yond the ability of the dung heaps to
supply.

Fat Horses.

There is tendency at this season to
feed too nuch grain and get the horses
too fat. This is done at the expense of
muscle, because aa animal kept con-
stantly at work will not get "hog fat"
the food going to furnish tissue and
muscle is used up and destroyed. Not so
with an animal kept in a stall and given
no exercise, except, perhaps, that OBJ
tained while being led to water. Tn
amount of grain fed should be reduced
and plentiful supply of hay Kept in
the racks at all times. When possible.
the horses should be given the free run
OF the yard every day. If only given
their liberty occasionally, they are liable
to rua and jump to excess. MANY
valuable animals have been lost bv
rupture or fall obtained through giving
exercise to exuberant animal spirits.
