NEW AND IMPORTANT INVENTION.

NEW AND IWPURIANTI INV ENT1UN.
This STEAM FULLER has been thoroughly
tested, and has demonstrated the fact that we
can apply to Cotton Bands any required tensl

A Remedy for Skin Poisoned BY Ivy.


DIR. S. A. Brown, United States Ma
Wy, Mare Island, California, believes
that he has found specific for the
eruption caused by contact with poi
son oak, sumac, ivy, huahoo, cashew
nut, etc. He writes: "This specific is
bromine: l have used it with the
same unvarying success in at least
forty cases. The eruption never ex-
terds after the first thorough applica-
ton, and it promptly begins to di-
minish. Within twenty-four hours,
if the application be persisted in the
patient is entirely cured. There is no
pam attending its use, as from that of
astringents. OF course, the epidermis
peels off as after other treatment.
81 use the bromine dissolved in OIL
i've oil, in cosmoline or glycerine. The
application with glycerine is painful,
and, think, possesses no advantage
to compensate for the irritation. The
strength of the solution is from ten to
twenty drops of bromine to the ounce
of oil, used by rubbing gently on the
affected parts three or four times a
day, and especially on going to bed at
night. You wash Off the the oil twice
q day with CASTLE soap.
"The bromine is SO volatile that the
solution should be renewed within
twenty-four hours of its preparation,
as it will get out of a bottle, no mat
ter how well corked. 1t is best to
stand the bottle on its corked end, in
the interval of application.

How to Raise Hedge Successfully.

First, prepare a small hot bed, say
two feet square, and one and one-hali
feet deep; fill with fresh stable manure
within two inches of the top, level up
with mellow soil, place over this box
as large square as the bed, bottom up.
When the heat begins to generate
place the seed (Which of course should
be in coarse porous sack, previously
soaked twenty-four hours or more) on
the hot bed under the box. Every
morning and evening, be sure to thor
oughly re-wet the seeds, by putting
the sack into vessel of milk-warm
water, as the heat will dry them, ii
not re-wet at least twice a day. When
sprouts begin to appear, sow in drills,
covering with mellow earth two and
q half inches deep.
have raised as high as 4 800 plants
from one pound OF seed in this way.
Five pounds are sufficient for fencing
one fourth section, if the seeds are
good one or two pounds extra, for
re-setting the following spring is not
. bad idea.
How far ought they to be set apart
Iplaced around my farm the hedge
from IL to IA inches apart, but if l ev-
er have occasion to set another, shall
place them from Is to "a inches apart.
If they are even as close as eight inch
es, the fence is hot tight, and if one is
occasionally out, the gap is large
enough for small steer to run through
at least swine will; and while they are
not close enough to make hog-tight
fence, they are too close to plat down.
Hedge set 20 inches apart can, atjthree
years old, be half cut of, broken down
fiat, and being from five to seven feet
long will lap by each other, and the
new shoots springing up interlace each
other, making rabbit-tight fence.

A Good Hint to Fowl Raisers.

All wild birds feed their young upon
animal Gnsect) food, even if berries,
buds, seeds, ETC., form the natural diet
of the parents or adults of the same
species. Thus young chickens will
not thrive SO well without as they will
if supplied with animal food, in some
shape. Earth worms are capital for
very young chicks. Cooked meat,
chopped up fine, with boiled rice and
potatoes, is very nourishing and ac-
ceptable dish for them when young.
But not too much of this--nor must it
be given too often. Otherwise they
scour from excess of meat food. A
little two or three times day Sill
help them, until they are six weeks
old. By that time they will be strong
enough to run in the grass themselves,
where they will gather natural sup
ply of this kind of food, and, general
ly, plenty of IL.

Ali about Sreezss.


AS rule, q sheeze is the warning
nature gives that some part of the
body is exposed to cooler tempera-
ture than the other parts. and the
sneezer is Catching cold" Next to
the warning, what is the use of the
sneeze? 1t throws open the pores of
the whole body, and induces gentle
perspiration; in word it throws off
the cold. A child rarely sneezes more
than twice; perspiration is readily in
duced in youth; an old man on the
contrary, sneezes half dozen to a
dozen times, with a loudly explosive
"catchogue." 1t is harder to set him
perspiring. When one is sitting by an
open window, and finds himself sneez-
ing, nature tells him he is taking cold.
He should get up instantly, walk
about, and take full tumbler of wa
ter, to keep up the gentle perspiration
that the sneeze set in motion. If be
does this, he will not be telling an
hour SITTER, that he has ga cold in the
head" or chest or lungs.

Firm Butter without Ice.

In families, or where the dairy is
small, good plan to have butter cool
and firm without ice, is by the process
of evaporation, as practiced in India
and other warm countries. A cheap
plan is to get very large sized porus
earthen flower pot with an extra large
saucer. Half fill the saucer with wa
ter, set it in trivet or light stand
such as is used for holding hot irons
will do-upon this set your butter /;
over the whole insert the flower pot,
letting the top rim of it rest in and be
covered by the water /; then close the
hole in the bottom of the flowerpot
with cork then dash water over the
fowerpot, and repeat the process sew
eral times whenever it looks
dry. 1t can be set in cool place, or
where the wind can blow on it, it will
evaporate the water from the pot, and
the butter viii be as firm and cool as
though it came from the ice house.

The grange seeks to restore that un-
ity which the unhappy divisions Of
trade, commerce, selfish competitions
and manifold antagonisms among men
have so deplorably disturbed, and to
realize in q more beautiful and efficient
form the holy idea of charity, love and
brotherhood. The tendency to union,
to organic effort, to cooperative action
is strong aud almost universal at the
present day. Among the almost end
less variety of human wants there is
not one which makes itself so power
fully and keenly felt as the want OF
friendship, society and intimate COM
mune of soul with soul and yet such
are the habits of modern society and
the spirit of the times there is no want
SO difficult TO supply.
Many hearts there are glowing with
warm affections, oppressed with deep
aud earnest lodgings for friendly in
tercourse and close communion with
sympathizing and responding hearts
and yet like the spirit of the parable
wander up and down the desert places
of life and find no rest. The chords of
social unity have been severed and
individualism, selfishness, GOODNESS
and distrust have been installed where
the reign Of charity, friendship and
mutual love should abound. These
individual, selfish and incoherent ten
denotes, which cast whitening and
fatal paralysis over all social life and
the hearts best affections, may be re-
ferred chiefly to those antagonisms
which are engendered by the business
relations of life, the unhallowed COM
petition, the rivalries and jealousies
which inhere so closely to that spirit
of individualism which everywhere
like fatal mildew and rust corrodes
society.
Instead of the one body, closely uni
ted, knit together, compacted with
joint and sinew, there are many iso-
lated members without any vital con-
nection, saying to each other 81 have
no need of you l can live and flourish
without your aid.v This state of
things cannot last forever. Man can
not live in this condition of isolation,
of proud independence, of alienation
and distrust. The jealousies of relig-
ious sects, the warfare of nations, the
feuds of politicians, the incessant
craving of individual and personal
good which breaks up the unity and
harmony of society must give place to
combination of interests, mutual
happiness, cooperative brotherhood
to social harmony and fraternal love.
To carry out these principles, to en-
body them in life aud make them prac-
tically operative in all the institutions
of society and all business relations, is
the aim of the grange. To this end
the Patrons stand pledged, and for its
accomplishment they will work. They
see no other issue out of hard times,
out Of want, anxiety, social discord
and the general discomforts of life but
in unity of effort, combination of in
terests, q working together to make
life continual feast and a noble aspi-
ration.-Spirst of Kansas.

Out-Worms and Grubs in Corn Ground.

The cut worm that preys upon the
corn plant, feeds only upon the sprouts
and young stalks; it does not attack
the seed. Nevertheless the depreda-
lions of both this insect aud the " hile
grub may be checked to some extent
by sleeping the seed in saline or am
moniacal liquors. But the best thing
to ward off their attacks when the
corn sprouts, we believe, is to thor
oughly smoke the seed. This is often
done in smoke-house containing
hams and shoulders. During the
smoking process, among other chemi-
cal changes and combinations, pyro-
ligneous acid is produced, forming a
thick coating to the corn. 1t is an
acid containing oily impurities, which
are offensive to birds and insects, while
they do not injure the seed. Salt is
employed as q preventive
of attacks by the white grub, two to
four bushels per acre of fine salt being
sown broadcast and narrowed in
day before planting. SCOT and ashes
are often used in or upon the hills
with good results; but in field culture
this is generally impracticable.

Ca, Gapss in Young Chickens be- Prevented ?

Two of the worst enemies of poultry
are lice on old fowls, and gapes in the
young. Rid your stock of these pests
and poultry raising becomes real
pleasure: your stock will grow faster
on less food will mature earlier and
lay twice the number of eggs. Lice
alone are the principal cause of at least
one-half of the diseases that your
poultry are liable to. Our agricultur-
al papers have for years published ev-
erything in the way of experiments
and cures that could be thought of.
But parties rearing young chickens
know full well that one-half of the
number Matched die with the gapes
within six weeks. This is quite loss
in eggs, food, time and patience.
Now, there is no need of your chicks
dying with the gapes, when one box
of cape preventive and lice extermin-
ator can be had for twenty-five cents.

all the better. This viii keep well
