the sacrifices others are obliged 10 make
on their account.
Correct business habits are as impor-
tant to farmers, in proportion TO the
magnitude of their operations, as they
are TO merchants, manufacturers and
contractors. Notonly their success, but
the success of the persons with whom
they have dealings, depend on them.
Every person who has business transac-
tons Of any kind should meet obligations
with promtness. Unless this is done
infinite trouble is caused all parties con-
cerned. Good business habits are ele-
ments of success TO the farmer, and as
many fail for want of them as from any
cause. Prompt payments on the part of
farmers tend TO keep business moving in
the neighborhood where they live, and
assist in the business prosperity of the
entire country. The high prices farmers
pay, not only for family supplies, but
for everything they require in their
places, from lightning-rods to drain-tile,
are largely due to the various iniquities
connected with the credit system, and to
the failure, on one pretense or another,
to meet obligations when they are due.
Selling goods without security, to parties
who propose to pay for them attheir
convenience, calls for high prices

AdulteratIOn Of Groceries.

THE Massachusetts, Board of Health
reports that authorizations of staple gro
ceries are not as common as the public
have been led to suppose. For the pur-
pose of test, the expert of the Board
took samples Of flour, sugar, bread
soda, cream of tartar and baking pow
ders, obtained in stores in forty cities
and towns. The flour was found in all
instances to be wholly free from foreign
substances, and, with the exception Of
one or two coarse varieties of brown
sugar, no adulteration was perceptible
in that article; and in these isolated
cases there was reason for thinking that
the defects were due to imperfectiOns
in the process of manufacture. The
soda examined, although sold under a
variety of names, such as saleratus, BIZ
carbonate, supercarbonate and cooking
soda, was all found to be much the same
article, and nearly all Of 1t good. The
poor soda was that which had not been
properly purified of the crude soda ash,
but this sulphate is not injurious to
health. Baking powders we're found to
be pure in twenty-four instances out OF
thirty-three. The adulteration con-
sisted In an excess Of flour or starch
over that needed for mixing the soda
and cream or tartar. There was also
some alum found. In cream Of tartar a
considerable amount of adulteTation
was detected.

AT the session of the American Phi

the other day Prof. S. o. Halderman
read paper on the invention Of words
by children. The child which the Pro
fessor used 20 illustrate his remarks
was his own grandchild, who came to
Philadelphia from South America upon
a sailing vessel. The child could not
speak when it started upon the voyage;
but the hustle upon shipboard stimu-
lated him 10 make several distinct syl-
lsSbles which had no significance. One of
the M, however, was "bOom," and this
was the first word the child spoke. After
reach l'ug this city the ohild's vocabu-
larv In, Veased, but he continued TO use
"boomn 10 indicate a noise, blows,
steam. ana cars he called by initiating
the noise of escaping steam. These
he continued until he learned the
names for these articles. He used con-
sonants in place of vowels, and only
inserted the iatter when taught them.
The child also called a certain food
which its father liked by the latter's
name. The word ''gOod-by'' was used
10 indicate the last of anything, and
the rear car of train was called the
''good-by car"
