STATISTICS OF NEW YoRK.-The pop
ulation of New York City is about l.
100000. There are about 1000 grog-
shops and $40 churches-aboutl Is grog-
shops to one church.
1t is estimated that more than $780,
100000 are expended for Intoxicating
drinks. With that $5O,OOO.0OO we
could support 10000 school-teachers at
a salary Of $4,000 each. But the city
expends only 100000 for public in
structien-while it expends 100000
for police and 100000 for public
amusements.
About half the population are foreign
ers. The police last year arrested 76.-
600 persons, of whom $4,000 were for
intoxication and disorderly conduct. But
suppose the city gets revenue for IL
censing these grog shops. say 100000
year; then put on the opposite side
of the ledger ten times 100000, for
the amount it costs the city to support
the paupers and punish the criminals
made by the grog-shops, and you have a
striking exhibition of economy run mad.

MARKETING BUTTER.

The fact that Vermont dairymen do
not get the best prices for their butter,
Is not always the fault of the butter.
Much of the butter sent to market from
this state is as good as can be made any
where. But it is frequently put into
the hands of commission merchants in
large lots, and the best culled out and
sold for high price the remainder is
sold for ordinary butter, and the pro-
ducer gets only the price of common
average butter for the whole, if he gets
even that. Sometimes excellent butter
is not put up with sufficient care and
does not sell well for that reason. How
ever nice the article, if it does not reach
the consumer in good condition, it
will not bring satisfactory price. If
it is 10 be kept for any length of time
either before or after being sent away,
the tubs should be filled to the surface
of the butter with clear strong brine and
a cloth spread over its surface and upon
the cloth layer of nice dairy salt. 1t
should then be placed in a clean cool
room. ID. E. Jameson relates that a
friend of his sent large lot of butter to
Providence, Rhode Island, and desired
a top price. 1t was not sold. After a
few weeks waiting he went to attend to
it, and found his butter in a cellar where
coal and other merchandise was stored,
and the tubs blackened and begrimed
by coal dust, but in the cool cellar the
butter was in good condition. He brush
ed and sand-papered the tubs until they
were white and clean. He had the cloth
that was upon the surface of the butter
washed and replaced and powdered over
with nice salt, then he sold it to the
grOcers in small lots at perfectly salts.
factory prices. and thus made very
renumerative trip. The farmers do moi
make as much poor butter as is sold il
that trade.

HOEING.

II is Of great Importance that weeds
should be kept down and not allowed to
get the start Of the growing crops.
Weeds left to grow rank and 60 TO seed.
sap the ground, and deprive the crops
Of the nutriment and sunshine which
they need. 10 conquer the weeds it is
necessary to begin early and keep busy
until the corn and potatoes have become
large enough to shade the weeds. Much
Of this work can be done by horse power,
If the right machines are used. There
are several kinds of improved horse hoes,
which do the work very thoroughly,
leaving very little to be done by hand.
On the larger farms these machines will
more than pay, since they save much
hand labor. A cultivator. adjustable
in width with sharp teeth which cut
we'll into the soil and take up the weeds
by the roots, will do good work, and
when the soil is mellow and the burrows
run both ways there is but little left to
be done by hand. 1t is we'll to run the
cultivator among corn more frequently
than hand hOcing is done. In fact, on
the larger farms it pays to start the cul-
tivator as soon as the corn makes its
appearance, and keep it going every day
with short intervals, if any, until the
corn is too large to admit horse and
machine between the rows. As the corn
increases in size the cultivator should be
made narrower, so as not to disturb the
roots. Root pruning has been advocated
as a wonderful discovery but we believe
' it to be false in theory as we'll as dam
aging in practice. Cutting off the roots
impedes the growth, stunts and dwarfs
the plant and diminishes the amount of
the crop. Nature furnishes no more or
larger roots to plant than it needs for
Its best development. Root pruning has
been tried on tomatoes, and the conse-
quence is diminished crop. The only
gain is that the tomatoes ripen few
days earlier for having the roots cut off.
Stirring the soil frequently around the
hills of corn not only keeps down the
weeds, but it renders the soil porous,
mixes and diffuses fertilizers more thor.
Oughly, promotes moisture in times o.
drought, and puts the soil in the bes
condition for the roots to extract tn,
nourishment needed for the most rapid
and healthy growth. The work, there
fore, should be done well.

sUNDAY-scHooL LESSON.
Sunday. July 8. Romans 5:l-lo.

..
This is the beginning of the second
half of the year, and the lessons will be
found during the next six months in the
New Testament They are from the
epistles of Paul. It is supposed the
epistle to the Romans was written in
Corinth, and that it was written A. d.
SO. Paul had not at that time visited
Rome, but a church had sprung up there,
probably by the preaching and teachings
of some who had been converted at Pen
tecost. The letter indicates that the
church in Rome, then the most impor-
tant center of the world. was composed
of both Jews and Gentiles. Paul in his
great love for the churches and his special
care over them. sent letters to those whom
he designates as the "beloved of God,
and in this important letter to his Rom
an brethren, sets forth doctrines that
were specially needed by them. After
referring to his longing desire to visit
them, he reminds them of his desire to
preach the Gospel of Christ, and then
proceeds to discuss the subjects of faith
and of circumcision, at the same time
showing that mankind was despicably
wicked. After having related part of
Abraham's history and shown how great
was his faith, he reminds his Roman
brethren that there are reasons why
their faith should be sufficient to believe
in the Lord Jesus. Then commences the
lesson, "Thcrefore being justified by
faith" etc. By faith man is led to put
himself into the hands of the Saviour,
who will Justify him. If we trust in
him we are justified and saved. "Have
peace with God" If our sins are for
given and there is no enmity between us
and God, and we are at peace with him.
"By whom we have access by faith g :
q - and rejoice in hope of the glory Of
God" Knowing that we are at peace
with God, and feeling how great is the
joy of Christ in the soul, we rejoice il
the present and future glory that is ours
So bright is cur hope that we even glory
in tribulation, knowing that this ever
? worketh for our good. in giving us a dis

JUNE IN VERMONT.

No country or section of country is ia
vored with more delightful scenery than
the old Green Mountain State, and ma
ture is never more beautiful at this sea-
son of the year. Mountains, hillsides,
meadows and fields are all clothed in
their richest habiliments and present
to the eye of the traveller an ever
varying picture of lovliness and beauty.
Let the jewellers on the monotonous
plains of the West enjoy as best
they can their broader fields and
richer soil. Be it ours to enjoy the dali
ly delight of diversified landscape, with
its hills. valleys, rivers and ravines.
People who have travelled in every state
in the Union say that nowhere can there
be found the equal of Vermont scenery
during three months of the year. The
clear, sparkling waters of her living
springs, the pure, life-giving atmosphere
which surrounds her mountains and hills
and the unsurpassed grandeur and beau
ty of her natural scenery, are attractions
appreciated and enjoyed by all true low
ers of the pure and beautiful in nature.
We read of the natural granduer and
picturesqueness of Switzerland scenery ;
we sing of Italy's balmy air and sunny
skies but where is nature more pictur-
esque, or scenery more magnificent than
is found in many parts of our own state
Life amid these rural scenes is a con.
slant blessing. Labor is robbed of much
of its fatigue when surrounded with OBJ
jects which please the eye and minister
to the wants of the higher nature. Eu
ropean travel brings one in contact witt
ancient structures and works of art, bu
here around our own homes. we may lool
upon far more magnificent structures
built by the Great Architect and clothed
in rich garments of verdure, which ar.
renewed with every return of spring
Let US appreciate more highly the priv
lege of living in this favored section o
the best country on the face Of the earth

FRENCH WAsHING.-As system Of wash
ing clothes has lately been introduced
in some French towns which is worthy
of special mention. Its economy is so
great as greatly to reduce the cost.
This is the process Two pounds of
soap is reduced with a little water, to
a sort of pulp, which, having been slight
ly warmed, is cooled in ten gallons of
water, to which is added one spoonful
of turpentine oil and two spoonfuls Of
ammonia then the mixture is agitated.
The water is kept at temperature which
may be borne by the hand. In this
solution the white clothes are put and
left there for two hours before washing
them with soap, taking care in the
meantime to cover the tub. The solu-
ton may be warmed again and used
once more, but it will be necessary to
add half spoonful of turpentine and
another spoonful of ammonia. Once
washed with soap, the clothes are put
in hot water and the blue is applied.
This process, it is obvious, saves much
time, much labor and fuel, while it gives
to the clothes whiteness much superior
to that obtained by any other process
and the destructive use of the washboard
or of pounding is not necessary to clean
the clothes from the impurities which
they contain.
