American Agriculturist. He is well
known as the author of Harris Oh
the Pig" "Talks on Manure" &C.,
and especially as the writer of walks
and Talks on the Farm" in the
American Agriculturist. In his new
seed catalogue he gives very full di-
rections for the cultivation of garden
and flower seeds, which embody the
results of his long eXperienceandinti-
mate acquaintance with the subject,

interested in the subject to avail them
selves of this offer. Address, JOSEPH

DEAR PARSONS:
l see that the Democrat man has
been doing some counting Of mistakes
in the ADVOCATE, and it put me in
the notion of counting his AS Il re-
suit | find in the local column of last
weeks Democrat, advertisements &C.,
as follows:
In all there are twenty paragraphs
called locals.
Five Of them contained some local
news.
Nine of them are advertisements.
And the remaining six have 10
more local application than so much
moOnshine.
However, l suppose the readers OF
the Democrat have become perfectly
content to pay two dollars per aunum
in order tolearn how poor Mr.. VIM. Nc
Kee of Patterson, NJ. suffered the ago
MES attendant upon diseased Kidneys
and how he was cured by using War
ner's Kidney Cure. SNoozER,

The following recipe for toughening
glass, which originally appeared in
the Leipsic Diamond, is, by reason of
its simplicity, certainly worthy of a
trial: "Place your tumblers, chimneys
or vessels, which you desire to keep
from cracking, in pot filled with cold
water; add little cooking salt; allow
the mixture to boil well over II fire, and
then cool slowly. Glass treated in
this way is said not to crack, even il
exposed to very sudden changes OF
temperature. Chimneys are said to
become very durable by this process,
which may be also extended to crock
cry, stoneware, porcelain, etc. The
process is simply one of annealing and
the slower the process, especially the
cooling portion of it, the more eftec-
tive will be the work."

Vennor's Prognosticaton for April.
There will be sharp frost in the
beginning of April, with a snowfall
on the 4th or 5th, but the spring will
open favorably and everything will
he pretty well advanced by April Is.
Floods may be expected in Chicago
about the first week in April, with
high winds also prevailing in the
early part Of the month. Snow-falls
are probable about April 3. Naviga-
ton is likely to open on Lake Ontario
about April I. The st. Lawranco
will be open the 9th or 1lth, and the
first steamship will probably arrive
about the 18th or Is tn. The weather
will be very stormy in the lower pro-
vinces about the 2oth, with very high
water prevailing, but in the west
April will be dry month. There
will be warm weather just following
the Goth, ending in thunder-storms
on the cath and 25th. Snow-storms
are probably in the far Yves on the
18th and 2Gth, and snow-fails are not
unlikely to occur in England at the
close OF the month. The month will
end wet and cold, but on the whole
! will be May month.
MAN DROWNED.-A young man
named Thomas Shatfer, whose home
was neal the village of Covode, In
diana county, was drowned in the
Susquehanna river, on Sunday after
noon, March 20th, while engaged in
rafting in timber. He was working
for Mr.. Bell, near the foot of Chess
Falls, and was standing at the time
on the un fastened end of Il lash-pole,
when the lashing that extended out
over the water was struck by Il heavy
log, knocking ShafIer's feet out from
under him aud throwing him into
the water. He was standing on the
outer edge of the platform with hi:
face down stream and did not notice
any danger until thrown in. We arc
informed that he appeared on the sur
face of the water twice-the first time
head foremost, and the second time hi.
feet came up-but nothing could bt
done to save his life. He was the sol
of Mr.. John Shaffer, of North Mahon
ing township, Indiana county, and
was about % or % years of age. HI
had been but recently married, anC
got to housekeeping few weeks ago
Up to the time of going to press, We
have not learned of his body being re
covered. Clearfield Republican.

The Altoona Tribune is conscious
that the present Pennsylvania Legis
lature has more work on its hand,
than it can probably attend to, and il
is therefore with considerable hesita
ton that it directs the attention o
| that body to the insurance business IL
at present conducted hy certain un
principled parties in this State. Tht
Tribune has Il vague sort OF an ide;
that there are some laws on the stat
ute books which are supposed to regu
late the insurance business, ant
has somewhere heard that there is al
officer having the matter in charge
but recent shameless proceedings, sucl
as insuring men and women VIII,
were known to be on their death-be,
for the benefit of spectators, lead it t,
believe that additional legislation j
necessary.
