Better Whistle than Whine.-As was
taking walk early in September, |
not ced two little boys on their way to
school. The smaller one tumbled and
fell, and though he was not much hurt,
he began TO whine in babyish way, not
aregular, roaring boy cry, as though he
was half killed, but a little, cross whine.
The older boy took his hand in a kind
and fatherly way, and said:
"Onever mind, Jimmy, don't whine
it is great deal better TO whistle"
And he began in the merriest way a
cheerful boy whistle.
Jimmy tried to join in the whistle.
II can't whistle as nice as you, Char
lie," said he; ''my lips won't pucker
up good"
''Jh, that is because you have not got
all the whine out yet," said Charlie; ;
"but you try a minute, and the whistle
will drive the whine away"
And so he did. and the last / saw or
heard of the little fellows they were
whistling away as earnestly as though
that was the chief end of life. | learn
ed lesson which hope shall not soon
forget, and it called out these few lines,
which may possibly cheer another whin-
er OF maturer years, as this class is by
no means confihed to the children.

WHEN SHOULD Cow DRY UP.-Be-
fore the Solesoury, Bucks county,
Farmers club last week, the question
as ''to what quantity or yield per day
does ii cease TO be profitable to continue
milking a COW for the product of but
ter" was bought up and answered by
Merrick ReedeT. He thought it would
pay TO milk within four or five weeks
of calving for one quart per day. There
was difference in cows, and no regu-
lar rule could be established. Isaac
Hambleton would prefer letting cow
run or s weeks without milking; he
thought 1t would be better for both COW
and calf. David X. Reeder had owned
a COW he could never keep dry up until
after she was seven year old. She had
good strong growing calves, and was
herselfthrifty. Wallace Paxson thought
it would be better to milk a heifer as
long as possible, as it would have a
tendency TO lengthen her time of milk
ing in the future.

AGRICULTURE.

WATER FOR SToCK.-It is well known
that sheep will live on very dry pastures
where there is no living water So will
horses. To do so, however, they are
Obliged to feed at night or early In the
day when the dew lies on the grass. II
allowed the chance they will drink lib
orally and be far better for it. While
it is true that sheep and horses, or even
cattle, will get along with little or no
" ater, when the dew is heavy, they
suffer seriously tor want of il. Itshould
be supplied even TO sheep so they may
take il at will. Ii water is handy sheep
drink little at time. Horses also DO
this, where water is handy. Cattle
usually fill themselves when they drink.
This subject of water for stock is brought
fresh TO mind by the following by Mr..
j. j. Mechi, of Tiptree hall, England.
8 thoroughly practical Inan and good
farmer. Upon the subject Of water for
sheep he says: "what an Improbable
mistake it is TO suppose that sheep do
not require water. We invariably give
them the opportunity Of settling that
question for themselves and 1t is sur
prising TO see how much they drink,
especially milk giving ewes, and also
all sheep when eating cake, meal, ETC.,
in addition to their green food. L at
tribute my trifling loss in sheep and
lambs to their having constant access to
water by means of an iron tank water
cart (CrOskill's) which have used for
thirty odd years"

Her Pdpd's GrGue.-A little girl, with
tangled locks peeping from under cal
leo hood, clad In a dress of chintz that,
hung all awry, loitered behind as the
dusty crowd moved out of the gates of
Mt. Adna the other day, after they had
scattered their flowers and done honors
to the dead. Dreamily she gazed after
them, her eyes filled with a far away
look Of tenderness, until the last one
had DISAPPEARED and the rattle of the
drums had died away. then she turned
and vaguely scanned the mounds that
rose about her, clutching tighter the
fast fading bunch of dandelions and
grave grass that her chubby hand held.
An old man passed by and patted her
curly head, as he spoke her name, but
she only shrank back further, and when
he told passing stranger that the little
ones father was one who went on bat
tle-field and never came back, there was
only tear-drop on the child's eye TO
tell that che heard or knew the story.
When they had gone she moved on
further TO a neglected, empty lot, and
kneeling down she picked up mound
of earth, whispering as she patted it
down and smoothed it with her chubby
hand:
This won't be so awfully big as the
others, guess, but maybe it'll be big
enough go that God will see it and think
papa is buried here
Carefully she trimmed tn; sides with
stray grasses she piucked, murmuring
on: And maybe it will grow so that
it will be like the rest In two or three
years; and then maybe papa will some
time "ome back and
But she paused as though 1t sudden
ly dawned upon her young mind that he
rested where the southern breezes whis-
per unknown" and the tear drops that
sprang to her eyes moistcned the little
bunch Of dandelions that she had plant
ed among the grasses on the mound she
had reared.
When the sexton passed that way at
night as he went TO close the gates he
found the little one fast asleep, with her
head pillowed on the mound, and when
he reused her she started up and look
ing dreamily around her for a moment
and smilingly fsltered:
Yes III go home now, for God says
he will watch papa's grave

TONATOEs.-This is one of the most
healthful as well as the most universally
liked of all vegetables, its healthful
qualities do not depend on the mode of
preparation for the table; it may be
eaten thrice day, cold or hot, cooked
or raw, alone or with salt and pepper
or vinegar, or all together, to like aG
vantage and to the utmost that can be
taken with an appetite. Its .healthful
qualities arise from its slight acidity, In
thIs making it as valuable perhaps as
berries, cherries, currants and similar
articles; it is highly nutritious, but its
chief virtue consists in its tendency to
keep the bowels free, owing to the seeds
which 1t contains, they acting as
mechanical irritants to the inner coat
ing of the bowels, causing them to
throw out larger amount of fluid
matter than they would otherwise have
done, to the effect of keeping the mucous
surfaces lubricated and securing q
greater solubility of the intestinal con-
tents, precisely on the principle that
figs and white mustard seeds are so
frequently efficient in removing con-
stipation in certain forms of disease.
The tomato season ends with the frost.
Ii the vines are pulled up before frost
comes, and are hung up in well venti-
lated cellar with the tomatoes hanging
to them, the ''love- apple" will continue
ripening until Christmas. The cellar
should not be too dry nor too warm.
The knowledge Of this may be improved
to great practical advantage for the
benefit of many who are invalids, and
who are fond of the tomato.

Cast Steel tcithout Crucibles.-A new
method of producing cast steel, which
dispenses with fusion and conversion
in crucibles of melting pots, has recent
ly been brought to public notice. On
account of the superior cheapness and
quality of the metal, the articles are
preferably manufactured from Siemens-
Martin or Bessemer steel, rolled or
forged into the required form, then.
finished as to shape, they are placed in
iron boxes, and recarbonized by the
ordinary cementation process. 1t Is
probable that the repeated heatings and
workings of the metal during the pro-
cess of shaping the article so thorough
ly expel the occluded gases, the reten-
ton of which in the iron invariably
creates blisters in all other cemented
steel, that smooth and uniform sur
face may, in many instances, result !;
but though this method may be exceed
ingly economical for the production of
a certain class of small articles, it may
reasonably be doub:ed if the character
of the grain of the steel Can be ulder
perfect control, and whether the pro-
cess would apply to manufactured
articles of any considerable size, or to
those of unequal thickness of parts
Experiments in the manner of packing,
however, may determine that some Of
these objections may be overcome.
Prof. Pdley has raised the question
whether the blackness of st, Paul's Ca
thedral, and many other English city
edifices, arises, as has hitherto been
supposed, from smoke. Having OBJ
served at Cambridge stones in nowise
exposed to the action of smoke similarly
blackened, he learned on inquiry that,
under a strong microscopic investiga-
ton of scrapings from such stones, the
darkness had been cOnclusively proved
TO be due to kind of lichen, which is
peculiar to sandstone, and that it is al
ways i'm proportion to the absence Of
the suns rays, and that when stone is
much exposed TO sun rays there is no
darkness. Having examined a curious
lichen which grows in circular patches
on Peterborough cathedral, he found
that il had the property of extracting
quantities of lime from the texture Of
the stone. The professor thinks that
science may probably suggest course
TO neutralize this vegetable blackening
process. But science and authority
hand in hand ought TO go further, and
quash the smoke of towns, which is
waste of fuel, working an annual out
lay of millions in consequent washing
and cleaning.

The Financial Issue einPcnnsyIvania In and
New York-The Effect OF the South Car.
oIIna DeyiIment On the Coming Eiec-
tions.
WASHINGTON, October 22.-Information
received here by Republicans, both from
Pennsylvania and New York, is all to the
effect. that the October elections continue
to exercise most depressing effect on the
Greenback organization, and that the hard
money victory in Ohio has brought back
many Republicans who were hesitating
about joining the Nationals. The assur-
ances given by Secretary Sherman, Of his
ability to resume January lst, have also
had very happy effect: The conviction,
Is rapidly spreading that the financial
question will be the leading Republican
issue in 1880, and the party is already, by
verdict OF the October States, in position
on that question as hard money party.
The indisputable facts OF Democratic out
RACES in Sonth Carolina are also having
great effectin both these States in consoli-
dating Republicans. In the most CON
seryatiye Republican circles, the de-
nunciation Of the movement ackhowl.
edged to be under the leadership ,ol
Wade Hampton's aids is now severe and
significant. In Pennsylvania the feeling is
we'll indicated by q remark OF one Of the
most conservative journals in that State,
that whether these transactions made DEM
ocrats rapidly down there or not, twas
beyond question that the knowledge Of
them was making Republicans very fast in
Pennsylvania. There is entire confidence
here that the Republicans will make gains
on Congressman in both States and have q
majority in each delegation. - |si -
