Amount of Paper Used.

II the amount Of paper consumed by
a nation has any bearing upon tho
question Of enlightenment and civil
li%aation, England and the United States
take the lead of the world. England
produces annually 100000 tons, and
uses about five kilogrammes about
eleven pounds) for each unit of its
population. The United States pro-
duces 207, 900 tons and nsum five
kilogrammes per head. Germany pro-
duces 200, 900 tons and consumes 4.76
kilogrammes and France produces
1872, 600 and consumes 1868 k%ilogrammes.
The consumption Of paper in other
countries is in the following order ;
Switzerland, Belgium, Hop md, Aus
tria, Italy, Sweden, Port gal. Switzer-
land uses 4,54 kilogrammes per head
and Portugal 1.S0 kilogrammes, Austria
produces 1900 tons Italy $4,000
Russia 80, 400 Spain 10000. Turkey,
Greece and Roumania produce none.
Asia, Africa, Australia, South America
and Canada combined produce less than
1900 tons, and import 1000.

Farm and Garden Notes.

Suds, ETC., from the kitchen are good
for flowers and vegetables.
Keep your fowl houses clean, and the
floor covered with dry earth.
Allow adult fowls access to the yard
rs early in the morning as they desire.
II isconsidered by some experimenters
in feeding that about one.fifth of ground
corn passes through cattle undigested.
When the temperature of the ground
is fifty degrees at n inch deep is DR..
St%urtevant's time for planting corn.
English farmers, it is said, have been
very successful in growing wheat by the
aid of peat charcoal as a fertilizer,
using at the rate of six hundred pounds
to the acre.
A Boston florist commends placing a
layer of oats underneath the usual layer
of sand in which slips of rare and ten
der plants are to be started. The oats
when soaked with moisture exude a
mucilaginous substance that acts as a
food and stimulant to the slips,
Milk readily absorbs every odor,
whether agreeable or disagreeable, and
catches every variety Of ferment which
may chance to come I'm contact with it
from the air. 1t should DO carefully
protected against all such influences
and kept in pure air out of the reach of
all noxious smells.
How to secure from an acre of ground
the greatest possible amount Of pro-
ducc, with the least possible expense,
is the great problem of farming. Natu-
raj conditions place certain well-deined
limits, within which is simply q matter
of science and practice to solve this
problem.
The Scientific american gives the fol-
lowing recipe for getting rid of stumps;
'In autumn or early winter bore a
hole one or two inches in diameter, ac-
cording to the girth Of the stump, and
about eighteen inches deep. Put into
il one or two ounces of saltpeter, fill
the hole with water, and plug it close.
In the ensuing spring take out the
plug and ignite it. The stump will
moulder away, without blazing, to the
very extremity of the roots, leaving
nothing but the ashes"

Grain farming, where the straw, fod-
der, hay, etc, are all consumed on
the farm, does not exhaust the soil so
much of its potash as of its phosphoric
acid and nitrogen, these latter being
the principal constituents of the grain /;
and therefore when wheat is sown on
a clover lay it is not necessary to apply
potash to the land-nitrogen and phos-
phoric acid beingthe principal elements
to supply here. An so in the spring,
if you want to know whether your land
is deficient of potash or not, put a little
hen manure on a row of corn, on an
other a mixture of hen manure and
ashes, and on a third ashes alone. If
the land is deficient in potash the diff
ference in the product will show it in the
superiority of that in the last row.

1866, their privacy was perforce invaded.
His bedroom, or what passed for such,
was found to contain nothing in the
way Of furniture save an old sofa, which
had served him for a bed, upon which
lay a pair Of old blankets, his sole
nightly covering. Piles Of books were
heaped up promiscuously in every
direction. So in his sitting-room, there
was scarcely space to for dust.

had apparently made very little use,
contented, like many another collector,
with merely having acquired them. A
wealthy eccentric living in a French
provincial town was not open to that
reproach. He dwelt alone in secluded
house, admitting no n but a char
woman, who prepared his meals, and a
news agent, who brought him thirty or
forty journals at a time. One day even
they could not obtain admission, and
the police were called upon to inter
vene. Upon entering the solitary bed

as it we'll could be-the recluse was

novels, whose perusal had been the sole
delight and occupation of his wasted
