How to Keep a Boy on the Farm.

At the meeting of the Berks County,
Pa, Agricultural Society on Saturday,
Prof. James Calder, President of the
Pennsylvania State College, was pres
ent. and spoke upon the subject of
"How to keep our sons on our farms" !"
| Among other things, he said:
GA fortune acquired through the till
age of the soil is more permanent than
| that secured through any other means
If farmers have failed in their business,
and suffered pecuniary losses, it has
been because they diverted their atten-
ton to other matters, such as unproft-
able speculations and business under
takings with which they were unfa-
miliar.
There is no calling without its
temptations, but there is none so free
from temptation as that of the farmer,
who, by his location, is so isolated as
to be removed from the evils and vices
which beset the denizens of cities. The
calling of the farmer leads him to COM
mune with nature. He is also taught
patience, perseverance and hope, and
becomes naturally man of faith, con-
fidence, hope and assurance. Under
all circumstances the farmer is more
likely to be man of honesty and in
tegrity than if he was engaged in any
other avocation in life.
Young men should be left to under
stand that if they desire to become good
farmers they require an education.
Much can be done by farmers in the
care and improvement of farm stock.
On some farms in Pennsylvania can be
found as fine cattle, horses and mules
as can be found on any farms in the
world. Quite revolution has been ac-
complished in this respect, as compared
with the practice of years ago. If a
| farmer desires to have his boys early
trained to the farm, it is well to instil
in their minds love for farm stock,
and this can be best done by giving
each son an animal, and letting him
know that he has absolute ownership
in it. So, likewise, in regard to fruit
| growing, child can be interested by
! giving IL a certain number of trees, or
a plot of ground, to take care of"
AS TO the opportunities of farmers
children to acquire better educations
than can be given them in the ordinary
country schools, the speaker instanced
the State Normal Schools, which are
greatly improving, and concluded by
referring to the Pennsylvania College,
in Center County, of which institution
he is President. He related the diff
culties encountered in establishing the
college upon a paying basis, and re-
counted the numerous things which had
to be learned. He expressed sincere
wish to have any gentleman present in
terrogate him in reference to the man
agement of the State college, as there
is not single thing, he said, which it
was desired should be concealed.
The thanks of the society were ten
dered the Professor for his interesting
address.

A Diphtheritic Worm.

THE five-years-old daughter of Mrs.
Jennie Marsh, of Waverly, who is visit
ing friends in Elmira, was taken with
diphtheria shortly after her arrival here
last week, and is yet PROSTATE, but do
ing well. Yesterday morning the moth
er, looking in the child's throat, saw a
DltcrOcOccus moving. She took it and
another out. They are now at Flood s
drug store, and can be seen by whoever
desires. They are easily seen by the
naked eye, though glass helps one to
the "true inwardness of the critters.
The largest one is fully one-quarter of
an inch long, covered with hair, with a
head something like caterpillar, taper
ing body and long hairy tail. Its body
is formed in rings. Its color about that
of one of those dark yellow "thousand
legged" worms found under old boards
and stones. The smaller one is about
one-sixteenth of an inch long, being
whitish in color, and requiring the glass
to bring out its beauty" of conforma-
ton. 1t is not pleasant thought to
imagine such things in your throat,
but they get there, and from there into
the blood, heart and other organs,
producing paralysis and sudden death
when least expected. They are vege-
table parasites and exist in large colo
nies in the diphtheritic membrane. DR..
j. M. Flood is considerably interested
in the mammoth bacteria that have
come under his observation, which
greatly exceed in size anything he ever
saw. If you have time and the incli-

GRIMES AND CASUALTIES


Thomas P. Hewitt was shot and
mortally wounded by Francis Glennon,
at Bloomfield, N. j., few days ago.
-Catharine Dunsback, a maiden
lady fifty years of age, residing near

"A fatal shooting affray occurred at
Rockport, KY, few days ago, between

Usage Orange Seed---How to Prepare
and Plant.

In some portions of this State where
the fosage orange was first planted,
there necessarily must be great many
trees that bear more or less fruit that
contains the seed that has grown the
tree, therefore to the lucky ones l will
give method of " disintegrating the
seed from the pulp. In the fall gather
up the balls and pile them up in heaps
of from three to ten bushels, the same
as you would pile up potatoes, but do
not cover them. Let them remain I'M
til spring, until they thoroughly rot,
which is very essential to the separa-
ton of the seed from the very tenacious
pulp. They should now be placed in a
box or barrel and mashed to a pulpy
mass. Make a box about eighteen
inches wide, twelve inches deep, and
three or four feet long. Place in this
box false bottom of Stats raised two
or three inches from the bottom of the
box inside. The Stats should be half
the width of the lath, and Just far
enough apart to allow the seed to fall
through to the bottom of the main box.
Set this box under the pump-spout and
pump it full of water. Put in some of
the pulp and thoroughly stir it with a
stick or your hands. If the seed leave
the pulp freely, your balls have been
properly handled. The pulp, if you
keep your box full of water, will swim
out over the top. You may have to
scrub or wash out some of the seed
with your hands in order to get all of
the seed (Which is not very agreeable
iOb.) After the seed has been separated
from the pulp, wash them in clean wa
ter, drain them thoroughly, and spread
them out upon floor in the shade to
dry. Spread very thinly so that they
will not mildew. When thoroughly
dry send to market in sacks or boxes.
AS there are several methods of get
ting out the seed from the ball, l hope
this article will induce others to give
their method also.
About the best way to prepare the
seed for planting is to place them in a
coarse gunny-sack, and tie rope to
the top of it, and lay it fiat down in a
stream of running water, turning it
over every day until the sprouts can be
seen coming through the sack, when
they are all in the best possible condi-
ton to plant, and should be planted
Immediately. They will sprout in six
days or two weeks, so always have your
hedge row ready. There are other
modes of sprouting seed, with hot wa
ter, etc., but 10 the uninitiated this is
decidedly the best plan, as he is certain
of success. C. +. H., in Kansas Far

THE TRUE REAHEN.


The bliss for which our spirits pine,
That bliss we feel shall yet be given
Somehow. in some far realm divine,
Some marvellous state we name heaven
not the bliss of languorous hours,
II A glory of calm measured range,
But life which feeds our noblest powers
On wonders of eternal change;
A heaven Of action freed from strife,
With ampler ether for the scope
i OF an immeasurable life,
And an unbafiied, boundless hope;
A heaven wherein all discords cease,
Self-torment. doubt, distress, turmoil,
The core of whose majestic peace
Is GOlllke power of tireless toll
Toll without tumult, strain or jar,
With grandest reach of range indued,
Unchecked by even the farthest star
That trembles through inhpitude,
In which to soar TO higher heights
Through widening ethers stretched abroad
Till in our onward, upward highta,
We touch at last the feet of God
Time swallowed in Eternity
No future evermore, no past
But one unending Now to be
boundless circle round us cast.

The PhYsicaI Paradox.

IT has been said that "the blood is the
source Of life." 1t is as truly the source OF
disease and death. No life, that is TO say, no
healthy tissue can be generated from impure
blood, no organ of the body can normally per-
form Its functions when supplied with impure
blood. The fluid that should carry life and
health TO every part, carries only weakness
and disease. Blood Is the source OF life, only
when 1t is pure. IL II has become diseased, Il
