Because the penalties of physiological

fancy they are void. But when the sys-
tenn breaks down, and almost hopeless
complications arise, which the family
physician, by reason of his limited ex-
perience, fails to relieve, by reason of the
above inquiry is apparent. Many reme-
dies have been specially prepared for
these cases, and many physicians are
bidding for their patronage. AS before

NOTES.

Comfortable stables save fodder since
if we'll housed the cattle don't require so
much hay to keep up the vital heat.
The urine Of all animals, especially
those that are highly fed, is more valu-
able as manure than the solid excre-
ments, and should be carefully saved by
suitable absorbents.
1t is difficult to make people under
stand that food in animals, as we'll as
in plants, is largely derived from the
air, and that good pure air only can
supply what nature demands from the
atmosphere. Muddy and filthy barns
turn out lean cattle.
The moist climate of England favors
the growth of potatoes 500 bushels to
the acre is spoken of as not an uncom-
mon yield. Here it would be almost
unheard of, the average in New Eng
land not much exceeding 100 bushels,
and 800 bushels is very heavy CROP
for our country.
According to DR.. Lawes the value Of
manure made by feeding ton of corr
meal is $6.65, showing that the profit
in feeding meal is chiefly to be found
in the flesh produced. Glover hay also
stand high as source of rich manure
the manure from feeding ton being
valued at more than half the value O.
the hay itself.
The English dairy farmers get i'm
mense returns from their grass lands b,
a free use of bone manure. One Chesh
ire farmer says that by this means h
is able to feed forty COWS from land tina
formerly gave him product sufficient 70
only twenty. FIJI.
Harnesses should not be kept hanging
in the barn where the cattle are house,
but in separate room, as the ammoni
which impregnates the air will rot tn
leather. 1t is very easy to board off
small room, and make it the harness
room. wherein also to shut up the NOR
delicate farm tools.

CONDIMENTS IN POULTRY DIET.-Cay-
enne pepper, mustard or ginger can
with great benefit be added to the food
of fowls, to increase their vigor, and to
stimulate egg production. This appar-
emily artificial diet will seem to be nat
ural if we remember that wild birds of
the gallinaceous genus get access to very
many highly-spiced berries and buds /;
articles that give the "game favor" to
their flesh. The ordinary food of the
domestic fowl is not entirely without
some such addition. since there being
more or less aromatic principle in wheat
Indian corn, and other grains. Never
theless it is not sufficient in quantity
to supply the place of the stronger spec
les, taste for which is a part of the
fowls inherited quality. A>moderate
quantity of Cayenne, etc., added to the
ground grain is productive of health and
thrift in poultry.-7he Poultry World.

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION.

The following is an abstract Of Presi-
dent Buckham's remarks at the recent
farmers meeting in Pittsford, VT;
What sort of an education shall we
give to those of our boy who are going
to be farmers. Let US not assume that
all farmers sons will be farmers, or that
we can know in early life which of them
will be. All the callings of life have
to be recruited from the farm. Let US,
then, give all the boys alike good ele-
mentary education. Let US do our ut
most to make the public schools what
they ought to be: stir up our neighbOrs
TO provide good public libraries; put
wide awake ministers into the pulpits
take good newspapers and periodicals.
Shall the boys who are going to be farm
ers take the highest education, academic
and collegiate ? Yes, if we can afford
it, because the question is of educating
them for the whole work of men in the
great world, not merely apprenticing
them to trade. There can be no de-
Dying that men in all calhngs, farmers
as we'll as others, are made broader,
more thorough, more capable men by
an extended education. But this gen.
eral education having been carried up
to the highest practical point, there
comes the question of the special educa-
ton for the calling of farming. This
will consist, first, of training in the
sciences bearing upon Agriculture, which
though not itself science, is minister
ed to by large group of sciences, such
as mineralOgy, Chemistry, botany, physi-
OlOgy, zoology. These sciences are the
farmers allies. The farmers of the
future will be compelled to call them to
his aid in the sharper competition which
he must face. The sciences should be
pursued where one can avail himself Of
the appliances of modern research, cabi.
nets, laboratories, apparatus for the
field and the workshop. The second
part of the farmers special education
will consist in sharing the actual laborf
= of the most improved husbandry. Il
would be most economical to spend the
winter months at the Agricultural Col
lege pursuing the sciences, and the sum
mer months in farm labors. In som,
respects neither the experimental farm
nor the so called model farm with mon
ey behind it, but bOnGfde farm mana
ged with reference to profits, would fur
nish the best school. In Roxburyshire
where is seen the finest farming in tn
world, the boys are put through a thor
Ough course of school training and the
are apprenticed to scientific farmer
that is, one who has the most approves
methods of farming in operation.
In answer to question whether tn
agricultural schools of Europe do nc
furnish good models for our industria
colleges, President Buckham said th
design of these schools is to train farr
stewards and higher grade of peasar
laborers. not, as with US, to make edl
Gated country gentlemen and inhuenti'
citizens

HE KEPT HIS WORD.

A woman and a girl were sitting on
the steps of church in Main street.
They were poorly clad, the garments of
the woman especially being ancient and
shabby, and made in style that no
modiste could have described. She was
old and feeble, and the wrinkled face
had wistful, yearuing expression, that
told of the suffering caused by hope
long deferred.
The day was fast drawing to close,
and by the soft fading light the girl
was reading letter, slowly and careful
ly spelling out the different passages.
whats that-that last ?" queried
the woman, bending forward her gray
head. that the dull ears might better
catch the sound.
The writer says: "You must be pre-
pared for severe blow" repeated the
girl.

"There has been dreadful accident
read the girl, sand your son was
among the number killed"
"What exclaimed the woman, fierce
ly, what's that ? Mono It's a mis-
take. Read it again-carefully."
She had started up and clutched the
girl by the arm. A man stopped and
gazed curiously at the pair, noting the
woman's agitation.
"Sit down, mother" said the girl, in
a low tone, and smothering a sob thai
rose to her lips "folks will see you"
The old woman sank down upon the
steps and motioned the girl to proceed.
"He lived only short time" reaC
the girl, in hard, dry voice, 'and tht
last thing he said was, Write and tel

never drank drop of liquor since

and his chums all mourn the loss of
brave companion.
The girls voice failed her here, ant
she burst into tears. The old woman
face was buried in her hands, and tn
hot tears trickled through the close
fingers.
"Poor boy-poor boy" she moaned
rocking her body to and fro: "he's gon
and left his poor mother all alone in tn
world. Oh, why wasn't it me who wa
taken instead of him, so brave an

The weak gray head bowed upon Il

mingled together. The soft Octob
twilight stole over the scene, shroudil
the pair in its gentle haze. Passel

SUNDAY-SCHOOL LESSON.

Way of the Righteous; Psalms l:
l-6. Sunday, Feb. l6.
GOLDEN TExT.-But the path of the
just is the shining light, that shineth
more and more unto the perfect day.
Prov. 4: Is.
For the remainder of the quarter our
lessons will be in the book of Psalms,
which is the most choice part of the Old
Testament and in some respect the most
difficult portion to expound. They were
written by different persons and at diff
ferent periods of time. About one-half
of them were written by David, who is
frequently distinguished by the name of
Psalmist. According to the Jewish ira
dition they were collected into book by
Ezra after the return of the Jews from
the captivity of Babylon. The first psalm
seems to have been placed here as a gen.
eral title or introduction to the whole
book, for which position its thought (the
blessedness of the righteous) we'll fits it.
At one time it either occupied a different
position, or (what is more probably was
regarded as one with our second psalm
so we infer from the fact that in Acts
10: 33 according to the reading now
generally accepted), the words 'thou arr
my son" (Psa. 2:7) are said to belong
to the 'frst psalm"

NOTES.

Blessed as the man, etc.: Literally,
"the happiness of the man. p Happy"
means zone who has in himself, is pos
SCISSOR of the elements of enjoyment"
the Hebrew word so translated is diff
ferent one from that properly translated
blessed" which means zone who has
received some good thing Especially,
full prosperity and happiness) from
another, especially God" This opening
phrase Compare the similar opening of
the Sermon on the Mount) gives the
central thought, not only of this psalm,
but of the whole Psalter and the whole
Old Testament; its meaning is discussed
under verse third. The man thus called
"happy" is described by three negations
in three parallel clauses, presenting three
sets of contrasts: we have scalketh. stand
eth, sitteth; then counsel, aoay, seat );
and ungodly, sinners. Knockers. The an
godly in the Old Testament are those
who openly set at defiance the laws of
right; by sinners are meant those who
miss the right way and stray in paths of
moral error; Knockers are such as ridicule
and mock right things and righteous per-
sons. To 'walk in the counsel of the
wicked" is to accept and be governed by
