CLIMATE AND CHARACTER.

A Melbourne magazine has published a
PAPER on 1.-The Coming Australian" in
which some curious condolences between
the habits of Australian and Californian
youth are pereeptble. The Australian lad,
1t seems, is fond of outdoor life and exer-
else, is wanting IN home discipline, and
has very little inclination for intellectual
pursuits. Il can hardly be said that the
California lad IS peculiarly addicted to out
door sports such as engage the attention Of
the Australian, for though baseball has its
shrines among US, we cannot be said to
devote to it anything ike the attention
which cricket, football and boating claim
from the young Australian. In both coun-
tries, however, the love Of outdoor life is
strong, and in both countries it results
from the possession of an equable and
genial climate. That climate mobiles
civilization is indeed very certain,
but to what extent has been mat
ter of controversy. The civilization OF
Greece was very much question OF climate,
but it seems that the same quality of at
mosphere which stimulated intellectual
activities at Athens may under different
surroundings tend to develop the physical
organism alone 1t is true, however, that
bodily culture preceded mental even in
Greece, and perhaps this is the best hope
of the Australians. As for US, we have as
yet only the love of the open air, and the
lack of reverence for parental authority,
to proceed upon. Perhaps by and by we
shall develop truly Athenian culture,
but meantime the dominant traits of the
rising generation both in Australia and
here seem to be suspiciOusly allied to those
of more primitive and less civilized races

THE wARgHoUs1NG OF WHEAT.

The President of the State Agricultural
Society, in his annual address, expressed
the belief that the farmers would find it
necessary to build joint. stock warehouses
for themselves, in which to store their
wheat. The farmers have found it SO diff
cult to act together for important purposes
that they have usually neglected their own
interests in such matters until fairly driven
to do something, and it is probable that
this will be the case at present. The re-
cent agitation over the wheat question has,
however, made it more clear than ever that

A genuine Fenian panic has assailed the
English Government, and its reality is ev-

necessary to disarm an Irish regiment sta

would certainly not have been taken unless
the Government believed that there was
real and very grave danger, but it does not

AGRICULTURAL
Cluh-foot in Cabbages

The cause aud cure of club-foot in cab
bage WAS among The practical questions dis
cussei at The recent meeting of the Connec-
ticut State Board of Agriculture. The cause
was confidently stated to be a species of fun
gi, yet it was scarcely proved that fungus
was ever developed at the root of plant.
The general opinion was that club-foot is oc
casio ed by worm or maggot which preys
upon the fine roolletS of the cabbage plant,
causing a thickening of the root. something
very similar to tue bunch produced upon the
limbs of certain trees through very close
cutting. Some speakers attributed the cause
To the use of certain kinds of manure. nota-
Div, pig manure.
Several farmers stated that, in their expe-
rience, cabhages planted in moist mucky
land were always club-foot. Two other cul-
tivators. whose soil was light and gravelly,
could not make a success of raising cab
bages. As to the cure of this evil, the great
sinumber of Successes had been derived
from the application of salt. say from four
10 six bushels per acre, while the same rem
edy was considered best in the destruction
of the maggot in cabbage and turnips.s One
farmer who raised large quantity of cab
bages for feeding TO his cows, had found
that ii was not best to apply fresh manure
10 the crop; but if used AT all. apply in the
Fall, and in the Spring use phosphate of
lime, narrowed in. BY. this practice he had
escaped loss by club-foot or ma ggot. A sue
cessfql culiivator OF cabbages recommends
the application of salt two or three times
during the season, as preventive of club
foot. II kills the maggots and destroys the
lice and fungus upon the leayes.-Boston

To Keep uneecupied Rooms Dry

IL occurs with many people that they
have to leave their houses for time, either
In summer or winter, during which period,
especially in damp seasons, not only the
furniture, but also the walls and the paper
on them are liable to get damaged by the
moisture in the atmosphere. This can be
avoided in simple manner. Before leav-
ing the house the rooms containing furni-
ture ought to be well fastened up, to exclude
as much of the outer air as possible; o dish
with dry chloride of lime Should then be
placed in the middle of the apartment, and
inside another larger empty vessel, intended
to receive the water flowing out Of the for
mer. The well-dried chloride of lime has
such an affinity for water that it will attract
all the moisture contained in the room and
keep the air~periectly dry, so that no harm
can occur to either furniture, books. paper,
etc. Care must only be taken to open doors
and windows when the apartments are to be
occupied, as this dry air is not good for

How to use Ground Bone.

A farmer asked Inc he other day viii ch |
thought was the best and cheapest for a
farmer TO buy as fertilizer, bone dust or
superphosphate. 'Superphosphate, if yoo
get good article, escecially ii your land is
light or sandy" l answered.
'.Well, p said he, ~ have had The best re-
suits from ground bone, although my land
is very light, sandy loam."
''HOw do You use it?' | inquired.
''In the fall | draw in load or two of
peat into my shed. where it will keep dry,
put a load or two of horse manure on it.
then as butcher along during the winter,
all theblood and, offafis buried in thai heap
and also any dead. calves, lambs on other
animals that may have rlien about once

whichit will do in a few days if the bone is
buried among it, and then l work itoyer

eMy friend" said /, I ryoa have proved
that 1 was right in saying that superphos-
plate was best adapted to your soil, for that
is just what you have been making in your
compost heap, and you get your ammonia
under your poultry roosts and from your
offal cheaper than a fertilizer manufacturer
can get it, and dissolve your bone cheaper
than they can do it. l wish every farmer
would follow your example. Young Farm
