AGRICULTURAL.

something Farmer Should Know.
AS a general thing the farmer is liable for
all the public injury his hired man may
cause while actually employed by him. If
he sends him into his lot to burn old brush,
and he, for any purpose whatever, leaves it
and the fire runs into his neighbor's lot, de-
stroying his fence and injurying his crops,
the farmer is liable for the damages caused
by the wanton neglect of his man. If he
sends hired man on to the road with a
team and he by negligence runs into another
vehicle and Injuries it, or the persons who
may be in it, the farmer is liable for DANA
ger; but should the hired man leave the road
he was directed to go and travel another for
his own pleasure or profit, then the farmer
would not be liable for damages should anv
accident occur. If hired man, in going to
or from lot with scythe, and by the care
less handling or carrying he Injuries pass
er-by, the farmer is liable for the damages.
Ii in cutting wood the hired man cuts down
tree in another lot, the owner is liable for
trespass and damages, although he distinct
ly showed him The boundary, and though
the man may have cut the tree with mali
cious intent Should the hired man from
maliciousness, run into team, even if it
blocks his way, yet the farmer must paw the
damages, though done contrary to his posi-
tive orders. In all these cases the farmer
can compel the hired man to pay him back
If he has anything to pay With; but this is
rarely the case unless the farmer keeps back
his wages and only settles when his time ex-
pires.-Boston Cultivator.
Drinking Ice Water
There is no more doubt that drinking ice
water arrests digestion than there is that
refrigerator would arrest perspiration. 1t
drives from the stomach its natural heat.
suspends the flow of gastric juice, and shocks
and weakens the delicate organs with which
it comes in contact. An able writer on hu-
man diseases says habitual ice-water drinkers
are usually very fabby about the region of the
stomach. They complain that their food
lies heavy on that patient organ. They taste
their dinner for hours after it is bolted.
They cultivate the use of stimulants to aid
digestion. If they are intelligent they read
upon food and what the Psychologist has to
say about it-how long it takes cabbage and
pork and beef and potatoes and other meats
and esculents to go through the process of
assimilation. They roar at new bread, hot
cakes, and fried meat imagining these to
have been the cause of their maladies. But
the ice-water goes down all the same, and
finally friends are called in to take fare
well look at one whom mysterious Provi-
dence has called to a cline where, as far as
is known, ice-water is not used. The num-
ber of immortal beings who go hence, to re-
turn no more, on account of an injudicious
use OF ice-water, can hardly be estimated.-

POETRY.
The Garden of Cymodoce.

[From Swinburne's new volume of poems.1
o flower of all wind-howers and sea-howers,
Made lovelier by love of the sea
Than thy golden own field flowers of tree flowers
Like foam of the sea-facing tree!
No foot but the sea-mew's there settles
On the spikes of thine anthers like horns
With snow-colored spray for thy petals,
Black rocks for thy thorns.
Was it here, in the waste of his waters
That the lordly North Wind when his love
On the fairest of many kings daughters
Bore down for spoil from above,
Chose forth of all farthest far islands
As a haven to harbor her head
OF all lowlands on earth and all highlands,
His bride-worthy bed?
Or, haply, my sea-hower, he found thee
Made fast as with anchors to land,
And broke, that his waves might be round thee
Thy fetters like rivets of sand?
And afar by the blast of him drifted
Thy blossoms of beauty was borne
As a lark by the heart in her lifted
To mix with the morn?
BY what rapture of rage, by what vision
Of heavenlier heaven than above,
Was he moved to devise thy division
From the land a rest for his love?
AS a nest when his wings would remeasure
The ways where of old they would be,
AS a bride-bed upbuit for his pleasure
BY sea-rock and sea?

TIE FARMERS' MEETING.

Our next meeting at Pleasant Prairie
promises to be important and interesting.
The stock show will be an interesting feature.
Even if none but those who have pledged to
bring stock are present, the exhibition will
be valuable. But other breeders besides
those mentioned in the notices have been in
vited, and it is hoped will attend. A number
of visitors will be present from Racine and
Lake counties. If the weather is favorable
the meeting will be held in the open air, and
the Pleasant Prairie people are erecting seats
for q crowd. Mr.. John Lucas will run a
lemonade, cigar and refreshment stand.
The March meeting held by this society in
Salem was very interesting occasion. The
Chicago Times thought it Of sufficient import
ance to give report of the proceedings,
nearly two columns in extent The mass of
our farming community are not yet awake to
the benefits to be had from these meetings.
An invitation is extended to all to attend the
coming meeting The Hon. N. D. Frat, who
will give the opening address, is practical
and successful farmer, and will have some
thing of interest to say to us farmers. The
Hon. W. D. Hoard, who will lecture to us
on 6" Want and Work." was born farmer
and followed it successfully till he went into
the business of threshing the Rebs. He is
now successful editor. His lecture will be
better worth hearing than many you are
charged so cents each to hear. Come, men
and women, young men and maidens, bring
your picnic baskets and have good time.

The catholicity of Scri6ner's Month
ly is well illustrated by the June num-
Der, which must certainly appeal to a
wide range of literary tastes. For
lovers of light reading there are papers
on Rocky Mountain Nights" (both
poetical and practically; "Spring here
abouts," .. e., in New York and sub
urbs, with illustrations; Thackeray
as Draughtsman," with over thirty
reproductions of the novelist's
sketches; "Life in Florence" a spright-
ly paper from an American point of
view; "My Friend, Mrs. Angel" a
humorous story of Washington life.
The current political interest is ap-
pealed to by H. J. Raymond's journal
of "The Philadelphia Convention of
1866" and Henry Kings picturesque
sketch of "a year of the Exodus in
Kansas" and indirectly by Principal
Grants third paper on the Dominion
Of Canada" dealing with it's political
and social history in an interesting
and able manner. Other papers, more
solid and of curious interest, are
Mr.. Scudders paper on William
Blake, Poet and Painter" with por-
trait illustrations, including "The
Chariot Of Fire. and others never be-
fore engraved; Rev. Isaac H. Halls
account of "The Cypriote Inscrip-
tions," the specimens Of which in the
Metropolitan Museum were deciphered
by him; and Richard A. Proctor's Sun
spots and Financial Panics," an in
tended REPUTATION of Professor STANLEY
Jevon's elaborate theories, based on a
former playful suggestion by Professor
Proctor that these two phenomena are
intimately connected The re-appear-
ance Of the sun-spots, and the recent
rumors of a financial panic, give in
terest to this paper. Schuyler's "Pe-
ter the Great" is Interestingly illus
trated, and deals with Peters first
marriage, the administration Of Sophia,
the eternal peace with Poland, old
Russian sports, etc., etc. Mr.. Cables
Grandissimes S" is rapidly justifying
the high claims made for it by the
publishers. This installment is said
to be the most dramatic in the story,
possibly excepting the episode of Bras
Coupe and the closing part. The de-
partments contain many articles of
special or timely interest, such as " The
Political Machine" "The shadow of
the Negro" Beaconsfeld and Glad
stone, ." Letters to Young Mothers
a review of The Art Season" "Steam
Catamaran," Seamless Paper Boxes"
"Cheap Ventilation" "The Phono-
graph in the Moon two Centuries ago,
Recent Books of Travel, Fiction, ETC.,
!" Regenerative Gas-Lighting," y The
Culture of the Rose" etc., etc.
