AGRICULTURAL.
ROOks.

Every farmer should possess few books
on the art of agriculture, tor reading and
study during the winter months, as we know
that 1t pays well to seek hints from the ex-
perience of other workers in the same field.
The farmer who knows the why's and where
fores of his success is better fitted for secur-
ing success in the future. Now, the princi-
Piles of agriculture are ever correct, and are
continually finding application in practice,
and therefore each farmer should know what
they are and how their application can infu-
ence the crops. Then there are class of
books telling of the how to do. Such, each
farmer should possess, read and study, for it
takes but small hint of better course to
start the better farmer into action, which
shall result in saving or making money.
The winter season should be the season for
educating the man into thought, preparatory
for action. The summer season should mean
the application of thought, gained both from
self-experience and reading, to the soil and
the crops. The whole year should furnish
time for developing the powers of the mind,
which is to control nature towards working
out the desires of the man. No, farmers,
don't be afraid of printers ink, but patronize
it, only nsing judgment derived from expe-
rence in interpreting what is impressed upon
paper.-Seientifc Farmer.

soap And Diseases.

DR.. Richardson lectured recently in New
= York city on the germ theory of disease. He
acknowledged his obligation to Tyndall for
his microscopic investigation of air dust,
spores, and other comforting aud salutary
topics. 1t is worth while for common people
to learn that 1000 typhus germs will thrive
in the circumference ola pin-head or a visable
globuie. 1t is worth while for them to note
that these germs may be desiccated and bs
borne, like thistle seeds,every where, and, like
demonical possessions, may jump noiselessly
down any throat. But there are certain
things spores cannot stand, according to the
latest ascertained results of science. A water
temperature of 120 degrees bois them to
death, and soap chemically poisons them.
Here sanitary and microscopic science come
together. Spores thrive in low ground and
under low conditions oflife. For redemption,
fly to hot water and soap, ye who live in dan
ger OF malarial poisoning. Hot water is san
itary. Soap is more sanitary. Fight typhus,
smallpox, yellow fever, and ague with SOAP
Soap is q board of health.

NEVER RETURN.

II is said that one out of every four real in
valids who go to Denver, COL, to recover health
never return to the East or South except as a
corpse. The undertakers, next to the hotel
keepers, have the most profitable business
This excessive mortality may be prevented and
patients saved and cured under the care of

"GO0d Bye, Sweetheart"
BY D. N. JORDAN

Goodbye, sweetheart, our day of bliss,
Sealed by loves pure aud sacred kiss,
Is ended, and in tears we part.
The dream is Ger, good. bye, sweetheart.
The first bright roses that you gave
Still hold the summers bloom and glow;
While in the garden where they grew
Fast falls the winters frost and snow.
Oh! friend, beloved more than life,
A pail is on the earth and sky
1 see, through bitter, binding tears,
The words L write, Sweetheart, goodbye.
l may not meet thee asyof old,
And yet how can we live apart?
To live and saw aGood.bvepl Sweetheart
