Argument Against the Blind Birdie.

We know not who invented this in
strument Of horse torture, but we
know he did not understand the ana
tony and physolgy of the eye of a
horse. Human vision is binocular-
that is, we see the same object with
both our eyes-and so adjust the axis
of vision that the object appear single
though seen with two eyes. But the
eyes of the horse are placed on the
side Of the head, and the axis of each
in nearly at right angles with the
longitudinal line of the body, so that
it is impossible that the same object
can be distinctly.seen with both eyes.
Now, by binding the eyes in the
direction in which it was intended, in
its contraction, that it should see, it
is forced to use an oblique vision, as if
we should cover the front of our optic
and be compelled to see only by the
corners of our eyes. This unnatural
and constrained use of the eye must
to great or less extent impair vision
if not entirely destroy it. The OBJ
ject for which the blind bride is used
is not accomplished by it. A horse is
easier frightened when be can not see
the object Of his dread than if he can
have fair view of it. But it is sur
prising to observe with what tenacity
men hold on to an absurd and cruel
practice when moments reflection
should teach them better. Nineteen
out of every twenty horses you see in
harness have Hind brides on, and if
you ask the owner to explain its bene-
fits, or why he uses it, he will be utterly
unable to give rational answer. We
are not surprised that draught horses
are subject to diseased eyes-we won
der that they are not all blind

SPEED THE PL0W. "
Evaporated Apples.


The desi Gated apples have quite
taken the place of the old-fashioned
dried apples, having much more flavor,
being light-colored, and, what is not
small matter, being free from the
dirt of flies and other foul matter,
which must of necessary accumulate
upon apples dried on the old slow
process in tho open air. The Empire
State 4griculturist describes the pro-
cess of drying as it is pursued at an
evaporating establishment at Spencer
port, n, Y, in which 1864 bushels
of apples (making S5,337 pounds Of
beautiful white fruit were dried last
fall and winter, and shipping TO
Russia. Five of these evaporators are
now put up in one building; the
average work Of each will be $50
bushels, or 75O to 500 bushels during
the season:
'"The fruit is pared, cored and sliced
at one operation. Two girls work to-
gether in ''a team" one running the
machine and the other trimming the
slices and putting them on the tray
ready for the evaproator. Each team
prepares from twenty to twenty-five
bushels a day, and thirty bushels have
been done by one of the teams in nine
hours. They receive six cents a
bushel for their work. The evapora-
tor consists of tower sixteen feet high
and five feet square. Under this tow
er is hot air furnace enclosed in a
double brick wall. An iron belt or
chain on each side of the tower runs
over a roller or pulleys, up on the in
side and down on the outside, with
Stats or cross bars five inches apart to
receive and hold the trays containing
the fruit. These trays are made of
galvanized iron wire, and hold a
bushel each, spared an inch and a helf
thick. There are thirty of them to
each tower. When the thermometer
indicates $50 degrees of heat tray of
fruite is slid in on the lower Stats and
carried up by means of a rope over
the pully five inches. In seven min
utes and half another tray is slid in,
and SO on during the twenty-four
hours. When the first tray put in
reaches the top in the second story of
the building, it is taken off and empti-
ed by hand stationed there for that
purpose. The fruit is bleached by
burning limestone under it before it is
put in the evaporation. Provision for
a proper distribution of the hot air
and to dispose of excess Of moisture is
made by fanges along the inside of
the tower. 1t is run by clock and
thermometer, as two or three minutes
in time, o. few degrees of heat, make
a great difference in the quality of the |
finished fruit. The skins, cores and
all apples unfit for first quality dried |
fruit, are evaporated by themselves
and shipped to Chicago and thence to
the plains, ranches and mines, and to
cold countries where fruit does not |
grow, to be made into cider and vine

The AVERY PL0W.

1t is a well-understood fact anon @ farmers who
have used the Avery Pillow, that they are imple-
ments that are not only wcll-made, but that they
are male out Of the very best material, whether
steel, castings, or timber.
Nothing Of an inferior quality is allowed to 60
into the Pillow, and farm ers who buy the genuine
Avery Plow know they can always rely upon
what they are Setting-a frst-class implement in
every respect.
The models are such as lifetime in the busi-
has taught to be the best; are after their own
design, and are well known for their lightness of
draft.
The Cast Plows are made from pig metal of from
seven to ten different varieties OF cold and hot
tanned. A test bar is kept for this purpose, from
which daily record is ma &c.
This bar is poured at the same time the other
castings are made, and in case the bar is not up
to the standard, all the castings are melted over
again,
All Steel Plows have thoroughly hardened
mold boards. Farmers are requested to test these
meld-boards by using good file either on the
surface or on the edge.
If the PlOw is easily filed. the quality is poor.
Points and landsides are 2ll duplicates being
fitted in the works to the original Pillow.
The timber used is ''butt cuts,'' the toughest
oak froTa Kentucky and Indiana bottom lands.
These facts are made known for the ben eft of
farmers who have never used the Avery Pillow
those VIE have used them already knew their
AeritS.

Now that the COWS are fully on the
pastares, supply them regularly with
salt. One ounce day is sufficient,
and it will prevent possible injurious
effect of the fresh succulent food that
otherwise might appear in the form of
severe and dangerous disorders of the
blood. A noon feed of hay with a
quart of bran or meal will ibe useful
this month, until the grass becomes
less succulent.

Life in the Country,

In the cities there are active men
and women who feel how much time
is absolutely wasted in the merest
ceremonies; how much childhood is
deprived of, and how little the pa
rents can secure either a healthy,
physical development, or a required
personal control to train children in
the way they should go. To such
persons the country, with whatever
discomforts are unavoidable, is yet
land of promise. If they possess
industry and good taste they will be
able to make the change with ad-
vantage, and will enjoy mounting
rough horses, and with their chill
dren pursue the woodland paths far
and near; they will plant their trees
and shrubbery, or, if their means be
more limited, be content in leisure
hours to wend their way on foot
along by paths of Hill and dale, be-
meath the forest trees, and to employ
a certain part of their time in the
cultivation of small fruits, their
flower beds, and their more useful
vegetable garden. + In city
life many persons consider them
selves forced to spend more money
than they should, and waste their
time in a great measure in vanities.
However keenly such persons may
feel their situation and deplore it,
they should not delude themselves
into the belief that a country life
would suit them, or that if there
they would not suffer in some other
form the misery which they suppose
society imposes upon them.

Short polonaises take the prece-

The demand for jet trimmings ex-
ceeds the supply.
Shaded satin ribbons are much
worn by old and young.
Bernhardt kids, dressed and un-
dressed, are used for full dress.
Vermicelli, Languedoc and Span.
ish laces are still deservedly pop
ular.
A novelty in neck wear, is shade
illusion, in pink, blue, brown, and
gold.
Plaid and silk stockings, in dark
solid shades, are used altogether for
street toilets.
Grenadines in solid colors make
pretty and inexpensive dresses 70,

No lady's wardrobe is complete
without flannel suit. either gray
or blue. They are becoming ser.

Another very effective evening
goods, is cream Irish lace-this

A Cat King of the Rats.

The London News gives this: A
cat, all black except its perfectly
white tail, was presented to the
town of Agnone. Italy,smany years
ago. They put it in the theatre to
clear it of rats. They soon found
that the cat was fraternizing with
the rodents, and had become their
king, and shared its food with
them. The custodian of the theatre
often observed the rats participating
in the food Of the cat, who, when
they fought among themselves for
some dainty morsel, restored order
by a euff of its paw. Time passed
on; the cat became oldIand toothless,
no weapons remaining to him but
very long claws, which, however,
were proportionately weak. or late
years the theatre has been always
closed, and the rats had increased
greatly, revolution took place, and
when the cat tried to restore order,
they bit him to death.
