Moss on Grass Lawns.

1t is generally thought that damp un-
drained bottom is the cause of moss on
grass lawns, but by some it is regarded as
proceeding in great measure from poverty
OF the soil, for where grass grows freely this
parasite is rarely found. 10 effect rid
dance of this pest there is nothing equal TO
fresh-slacked lime and wood ashes mixed
SO writes correspondent in Land and va
ter-which, he states, not only kill it and
cause it to shrivel up, but have most bene-
ficial result on the lawn by stimulating the
natural heritage. Where this is really poor
and needs assistance would strongly recon-
mend the use of both the above named, to-
gether with the addition of SCOT and finely
sifted soil, which mixture is far better than
guano, nitrate of soda, or other patent ma
nures, that force too much growth for
time, only to be succeeded by increased ex-
haustion soon after The first proceeding.
however, to cure mossy- grasspath should
be to scarrify it well over with an iron tooth
ed rake, followed by good sweeping after
with partly used-up brooms, which will
make way for seeds to be sown, and these
should be worked in by using the rake as
before This done, the soil mentioned and
the ingredients with it will then come in for
affording an additional cvoering. under which
it will germinate, and, once through make
rapid progress.

Splitting Paper.

1t is one OF the most remarkable properties
OF that wonderful product, paper, that it can
be split into two or even three parts, how
ever thin the sheet. We have seen leaf of
the Illustrated News thus divided into three
parts, or three thin leaves. One consisted
of the surface on which the engravings are
printed; another was the side containing the
letter press, and perfectly blank piece on
each side was the paper that lay between.
Many people who have not seen this done
might think it impossible; yet it is not only
possible, but extremely easy, as we shall
show.
Get piece of plate glass and place on it
piece OF paper; and let it be thoroughly
soaked. With care and a little dexterity the
sheet can be split by the top surface being
removed. But the best plan is to paste a
piece OF cloth or strong paper to each side
of the sheet to be split. When dry, violently
and without hesitation pull the two pieces
asunder, when part of the sheet will be
found to have adhered to one and part to
the other. Soften the paste in water and
the pieces can be easily removed from the
CLOTH
The process is generally demonstrated as
matter of curiosity, yet it can be utilized
in various ways. If we want to paste in
scrap-book newspaper article printed on
both sides OF the paper, and possess only one
copy, IL is very convenient to know how to
detach the one side from the other. The
paper, when split, as may be imagined, is
more transparent than it was before being
subjected to the operation, and the printing
ink is somewhat duller; otherwise the two
pieces present the appearance of the original
if again brought together
Some time ago the information of how to
do this splitting was advertised to be sold for
considerable sum. We now impart it to
all our readers ously.-Erchange.

THE STATE FArR.-The prospects for the
approaching State Fair are represented to
be brighter than they have been for years.
Colonel Knight, the secretary, states that
he thinks there will be an unusually large
attendance. The opinion is based upon
the very large number Of letters be has re-
ceived from persons-in: the West espe-
cially-in all directions making inquiries
as to premiums, &c. The railroads have
also done their part in putting down the
rates of travel very low.
Colonel Knight has now opened his re-
gister of hotels and boarding houses for
persons who desire to secure quarters in
advance, and has about seventy-fve houses
Of entertainment already enrolled, some OF
whose prices are as low rs seventy-tve cents
per day and some of them are desirabfy
located. There are also number OF pri-
yate families who are willing to take board
ers during the Fair. These names. how
ever, are not put upon The public lists but
will be kept In the secretary's office, in q
separate book, and will be, as far as posi-
BILE, matter Of private information. Per.
sons who desire 10 take such boarders, and
who have not already sent in thei" names,
should do go.
