We have gathered the following tes-
timony in regard to the manurial value
OF tobacco stalks. An exchange says
"Tobacco stems laid on the grass land
over winter impart some Of the richness
to the soil and improve the grass. The
stems can be gathered up again in the
spring, cut in short pieces with q
Ratchet and put in potato hills or
plowed under promiscuously on the
land intended to be sown to rye and
other crops. The stalks have the man
urisl value Of an equal amount of the
best animal excrement."
A Connecticut farmer says: "I have
used tobacco stalks on grass lands in
the fall and found them worth more than
coat of manure but l do not like the
picking them off from two acres every
spring. I have also used them for po-
tatoes in the hill by cutting them and
dropping about four pieces in each hill
and have had good results, as the stalks
seem to rot and furnish food for the
tubers as fast as it is needed, ard when
fully rotted the ground is left loose for
the potato to grow in. But the best re-
suits from the least work 1 have had in
spreading them on land that had been
sown to rye. In 1874 bought ten
acres of an old field land that had been
treated to rye about every fourth
year and stocked with redtop, as clover
and timothy seed would not take, it
being 80 run out that it would produce
only about ten bushels of rye per acre
l have planted two acres each to corn
and sowed rye and stocked with clover
and timothy seed, and spread my to-
bacco stalks on. The result is that I
have good crop of rye, and the stock
ing is good. On the six acres that 1 had
thus treated pastured two COWS and
one horse seventeen weeks till I turned
them into my fall feed. I never turn
my cattle on to new stocked land till the
clover is in full blossom"
Another writer says his favorite way
is to cut them up short, and either to
put them under his cows and let them
90 out with the manure, or else pillow
them on potato ground in spliug.

The Ap che Country.

General George Crook. commanding
the Department of the Platte, WAS in
command OF the Arizona department
from 1871 to 1875, and had during that
time conquered the Apaches. He says
there were twenty or more bands OF
Apachos over which Pedro was chief.
The Apaches numbered 10000, and
about 8,000.were hostiles, who lived In

The Extinction OF the Eagles.

A correspondent of the Litchfeld
Conn Enquirer writes as follows of
the practical extinction of the bald
headed eagle from the Connecticut hills:
"A pair OF these birds have lived for
MANY years in the vicinity of Bantam
Lake, and visitors there were often de-
lighted at the sight of them soaring high
in air. One very clear day last August
they came up to the village and re-
NAMED circling far above the Flagstaff
and West Park for nearly an hour at
high noon. Groups collected on the
corners to admire them, as their chang
ing positions brought the bright sun
light full upon their splendid white
heads and magnificent wings. 1t was
the first time several of our visitors had
seen an eagle. and it was afterward re-
marked by them, What beautiful
sight those eagles were, above the vii
lage green In your last weeks pa
per l read, with surprise and sorrow,
that they had been shot at Bantam
Laker So the last pair of eagles dis
appear from old Litchtield, and the
species is now forever extinct here;
there will never be any more of them.
Their age was no doubt very great.
The eagle does not come to maturity
until five years old, and lives n long
time. One died in Vienna after n cap
tivity of l05 years. Who can tell how
MANY scores of years this pair had kept
watch over Bantam Lake? l know not
who did it. but the shoot ne OF them
was public calamity, and has forever
deprived our village of rars attrac'
tion."

How Long Should We Sleep!

The vital processes of man, like those
of all his fellow-creatures, are partly
controlled by automatic tendencies.
Some functions of our internal economy
are too important to be trusted to the
caprices of human volition; breathing,
eating, drinking and even love are only
semi-voluntary actions; and during
period varying from onefourth to two
iifths of each solar day the conscious
activity of the senses undergoes COM
pletu suspense: the cerebral workshop
Is closed for repairs, and the abused or
exhausted body commits Its Organism
into The healing hands of Nature. I'm
der favorable conditions eight hours of
undisturbed sleep would almost suffice
to counterfeit the physiological mis-
chief of the sixteen waking hours. Dur
ing sleep the organ OF consciousness is
at rest and the energies of the system
seem to be Concentrated on the func-
ton of nutrition and the renewal Of the
vital energy in general; sleep promotes
digestion, repairs the waste of the mus
cular tissue, favors the process of Gu
taneous excretion and renews the vigor
of the mental faculties.
The amount of sleep required by
man is generally proportlonate to the
waste of vital strength, whether by
muscular exertion. mental activity Cor
emotion). or by the process of rapid
assimilation, as, during the first years
of growth and during the recovery
from an exhaustive disease. The
weight of a newborn child increases
more rapidly than that of a eupeptic
adult. enjoying d liberal diet after
period of starvation, and. though an
infant is incapable of forming abstract
ideas, we need not doubt that the vari-
ETY. of new and bewildering impressions
must overtask its little sensorium in a
few hours. Nurselings should there.
fore be permitted to sleep to their full
satisfaction; weakly babies. especially,
need sleep more than food, and it is
the safest plan never to disturb
child's slumber while the regularity OF
his breathing Indicates the healthiul-
ness of his repose; there is little dam
ger of his "oversleeping" himself in
moderately warmed, well-ventilated
room. Never mind about meal-times;
hunger will awaken him at the right
moment or teach him to make up for
lost time. Three or four musings in
the twentv-four hours are enough; DIR.
