LNrssn Manurss.

Doubtless clover is, of all green
crons Moved down as a fertilizer,
the most powerful and effective, and
its results the most enduring. But
clover must have pretty good land
to start with; at least there must be
a fair quantity of soluble potash
salts and phosphates in the soil, or
we get no stand of clover worth any
thing for the purpose desired, and
again, one whole season and the
most of another are necessary in the
economical use Of the clover plant
as a green manure, 70 b sgre, we
get two crops Of clover hay in the
time, which well repays US for wait
ing. But in many instances we do
not want to lose this time, We
want an almost immediate result,
which we cannot have with clover.
Buckwheat is recommended as q
quick growing crop for this purpose.
On laBd TOO poor for any other
crop, and on which We eann6t afford
to apply any fertilizer, we must have
RECOURSE to a buckWheat crop il We
desire to renoYate the soil by green
manure. But unless Others have
had better success than / have had,
they have not been very veil satis
fed with buckWheat under such cir
eumstances. The amendment Is
not sufficient, and besides that, a
good deal of the buckwhsat sovn
does not terminate at the first SOW
ing, but remains to appear as bad
weed IN succeeding crops.
We have two other plants that
may be used for green manuring
which accomplish the end desired as
quickly as buckUhest, and to much
better purpose, provided the land
be in fair condition, and the green
crop can have some aid from fertil
izer to start it. These are rye and
corn. Winter rye sown in Septem-
Der. after taking off an early crop,
viii give q rank growth in the
spring, which may be plowed under
early enough for most any hoed crop
~ SuARCFo ~: HHA4HS EIV VIII W
the same for any fall soWn crop, or,
as | think, broadcast corn will still
better accomplish the same object.
If the land is 100 poor for corn, 10
or I5 bushels of unleached ashes to
the acre, especially on light land,
will usually give it a sufficient
growth for the desired purpose
With rye, loop OF chain attached
to the pillow and eyener is sufficient
to lay the crop so that the furrow
will cover it, but broadcast corn
must be leyeled with a roller.
Winter rye has proved, in my ex-
perience, a most successful green
manure for corn, beans, squashes,
cucumbers, and melons. 1 have
now over two acres growing, which
I propose to piow doEn IN May ne4t.
A good crop Of potatoes may also
be grown upon winter rye, though it
makes the planting a little late.-Dr.

THE QUIZ.

opposite the residence OF Poll g
owner there were some buildings
in course Of erection. and the men
at the top Of the scaffold were in
the habit of calling to those below
for such material as they wanted,
"More brick" "More mortar" and
so on.
In very short time Polly had
these terms by heart, as well as the
gruff tones in which they were ut

borer relieve himself of load than
the everlasting cry, al ore mortar!'
assailed his ears. He bore it with
exemplary patience till the mortar
board at the top of the scafold was
piled up; but once more the order
far HMortar-more mortarT was
given. Then, to the delight of the

by, the Irishman flung down his

less you Theoretically seal a cask or
box you can scarcely keep a miller
out, as she will crawl through a
good-sized pin-hole. Therefore we
must use something offensive, and
the writer has found nothing so eff
fective and cheap as petroleum pa
per, and even tar-roofing paper will
answer. Buy your paper in rolls,
cut in sections long enough to COW
er the inside, the bottom and the
sides, and lap over on the top of the
box. All of the inside of the box
must be covered, and ON the inside
orthis again place wrapping papeE
to prevent the contact of nice
clothing with the petroleum paper.
Use a large boX-no matter about
its being very tight, as the paper
will cover the holes-and pack in
all your woolens and furs, filling it
full. Bring the paper up which
has been hanging over the sides of
the box, and let it cover the hole so
that the miller cannot enter with
out crawling over the petroleum
paper, which she will never do.
Nail on the cover of your box, and
your clothing is safe for three
years, if you wish to leave it that
long. 1t is much cheaper and does
not evaporate like camphor, and the
acid in it seems to act like
an antiseptic on the animal fiber of
the wool, to preserve and make it

Valuable to Farmers.

We import butter, cheese, lard
bacon, pork, loaf-sugar, dried and
canned fruits of all kinds, raisins,
preserved figs, oranges, lemons, wal
nuts, monds,tobacco,j ute, faxseed,
fish and many other articles of daily
use in every family, all of which we
can produce with the same ease and
certainty that we can cotton; and
with much better prospect Of con-
tinued and satisfactory profits. If
individual farmers would take this
subject of a greater diversity of
crops home to themselves and study
it in the light of the benefits it
would bring to their own house
holds, and act in accordance with
their own best judgments, we should
hear much less complaint Of hard
times and the uhproftableness of
farming as an occupation in our
state. Our farmers, as q class and
individuals, trust too much to the
failure or success OF single opera
tons of single crops.

The Lost Books Of the Bible.

4 correspondent writes 20 the
New York Sun as follows:
Mr.. II. W. Turner says the ap-
pearance of the revised edition of
the New Testament reminds him
that he heard long ago of a lost
gospel to the Hebrews. If Mr..
Turner will only take the trouble to
read the bible over carefully he will
find therein proof that twenty-three
books of it have been lost, few of
which 1 will name for his informa-
ton:
In the book of Numbers, xxi. Ia,
occurs the following reference
Wherefore it is said in the book of
the Wars of the Lord" Now, where
is that book? Lost, In the third
book of Kings it is recorded that
Solomon wrote 1900 proverbs
There are not more than 1900 in
the present bible; the rest are lost.
In the same book it is mentioned
that he wrote 105 Canticles. There
is not the half of that number in
the present bible. Then we find an
allusion to the book of Nathan the
prophet. There is no such book; it
is lost. In Chronicles we read that
the acts of David are written in the
book of Samuel, the seer, and Ma
than, the prophet. There is no
such book; it is lost. There was An
Epistle of St. Paul to the Colossians;
it is lost. st. Paul wrote five
epistles to the Corinthians; we have
only two of them, the rest are lost.
twenty-three books Of
The bible have been lost-nineteen
from the old testament and four
from the new.

Lincoln on Labor.

In those documents we find the
abridgment of the existing right of
suffrage, and the denial to the peo-
pie of all right to participate in the
selection of public officers, except
Legislative, boldly advocated with
labored arguments to prove that
large control of the people in the
government is the source Of all po-
litical evil. Monarchy itself is
sometimes limited at as a possible
refuge from the power Of the peo-
pie. In my present position could
scarcely be justified were to omit
raising a warning voice against this
approach Of returning .despotism.
1t is not needed or fitting here that
general argument should be made
in favor of popular institutions, but
there is one point with its connec
lions, not so hackAeyed as the 9TH
er, to which ask brief attention.
1t is the effort TO place capital on
an equal footing, if not above, Ia
Dor in the structure of government.
It is assumed that labor is only
available in connection with capital;
that nobody labors unless some
body owning capital somehow by
the use of it induces him to labor.
This assumed, it is next considered
whether it is best that capital shall
hire laborers, and thus induce them
to work with their own consent, or
buy them and drive them to it with
out their consent. Having pro
ceeded 80 far, it is naturally con-
cluded that all laborers are either
hired laborers or what we call
slaves. And further, it is assumed
that whoever is once a hired labor
er is fixed In that condition for life.
Now there is no such relation be-
tween capital and labor as that as
sumed, nor is there any such a free
man fixed for life in the condition
of hired laborer. Labor is prior
to and Independent of capital,
Capital is only the fruit of labor,
and could never have existed if la
bor had not first existed Labor is
the superior ofcapital, and deserves
much the highest consideration.
No men living are more to be
trusted than those who toll up from
none less inclined to touch |
or take aught which they have not
honestly earned. Let them beware |
of surrendering a political power
which they already possess, and |
which, when surrendered, will sure
ly be used to close the door Of adj
vancement against such as they, and
to fix new disabilities and burdens |
upon them till all their liberty shall |
be lost Lincoln's Second Mes

Holiday Hints,

Laces are more than ever used in
combination with other materials,
and whether it be the soft, delicate
Spanish, the heavier cluny, or the
bold, decided figures of the furni-
ture lace which has recently been
adopted for the purpose, they often
form the most effective part Of the
design. Plush, velvet and felt hold
favor 80 40 foundations, the novelty of
the season in thick goods being a
fine grade Of hraadclotn which
comes In all shades. Congress mus
lin is a new thin material, having
square open mesh like canvass, and
pliability OF lace. Double width
crash is now shown and viii prove
very desirable. The glass towelling
is another new material, but comes
only in one width, twenty-four
inches. 1t is finer and more even
in texture than crash, sAd more de-
sirabis ioF flne outline work, while
Russian sheetings are particularly
adapted for tray-cloths, doyleys and
drawn-work generally. The best
grades of linen towels have borders
woyen,like canvass, which.are to be
embroidered, and the same in
proYement is found in those of linen
monte cloth. The aforementioned
gooda are also in colors. Conven-
tionalized designs are very much in
favor. The KensingtOn stitch prop
er is combined with others, but sci
dom used alone. Flowers are in
applique, and leaves in outline.
Figures are also in applique, with
the outline in tinsel. Mosaic and
tile patterns appear as new feat
ures. An exquisite design of gol-
den rod is IN silk arrasene on sat
ms. Another has holly berries
formed of hard silk balls. Two no
ticeably artistic pieces are of orien
tai figures in satin applique on
plush and the faces delicately
painted in oil colors, and the detail

Poisons.

We all have a great horror of be-
ing poisoned, without exactly I'M
Outstanding what it is. Poison is
a disorganization of flesh and blood,

taken in the stomach or circulation,
the other the result of bites or
stings of living creatures. will

orally known and remembered,
would save thousands of lives ev

poison, whether laudanum, arsenic,
or any other thing poisonous, put
a tablespoonful of ground mustard
in glass OF water, cold or warm,
stir and swallow quickly, and in
simultaneously the contents of the
stomach will be thrown up, not al

The Family Doctor.


The white of an egg INTO which a
piece of alum about the size Of
WALNUT has been stewed until it
forms a jelly is a fine remedy for
sprains. 1t should be laid over the
sprain on a piece oflint and changed
as often as it becomes dry.
A medical journal gives the fol
lowing simple remedy for relieving
hiccough: "Infiate the lungs as
fully as possible and thus press
firmly on the agitated diaphragm.
In a few seconds the spasmodic &C
ton Of the muscles will cease"
a standing antidote for poison
by dew, poison oak, ivy, ETC., is to
take a handful of quicklime, dis
solve in water, let it stand half an
hour, then paint the poisoned parts
with it. Three or four applications
will never fail to cure the most ag
gravated cases.
The cure for night sweats de-
ponds entirely on the cause. Mala
ria gives rise to it, and then the
care is quinine and arsenic. Debili-
ty may cause them. In that case
tonics and good, nutritious food
should be used. Consumption
causes it, and the curc is sulphuric
acid, ten to twenty drops in wafer,
an hour after meals. Oxide ofzinc
and hydrocyanite extract pills, and,
above all, atrophita sulphate, one
two hundreths of one grain 70 be-
gin with. This must be taken
with great c2re. DR.. Nairn, of
London, says he spongsG the body
with tincture Of belladonna, but the
drug is too powerful to be used by
any one but physician.
Milks, says DR.. j. H. Hanaford,
contains all of the elements needed
to sustain life in the young, and is
one Of the simplest in Ese-whole
some, if it is pure. Its purity de
ponds on the health of the produc-
er, and that largely on the quality
ofthe food eaten. If at l,st pure
it may become otherwise by care
lessness. To keep it in tins, made
Of lead and arsenic, if 1t become
sour, especially, is to endanger the
lite of the family. If uncovered or
in any way exposed to fresh paint,
or to filth or poison in any form, it
soon becomes affected by ABSORB
ton, since water and all liquids con
tanning it are grand purifiers of the
air, these impurities being retained
in the liquids. Never keep milk in
newly painted pantry-only wa
ter, and that to be thrown out.
Corn silk is said to be an efficient
and powerful remedy for dropsy,
bladder troubles and diseases of the
kidneys. The Louisville Medical
News gives an account Of the medi-
cal properties of corn silk, and the
cures that have been effected by its
use. The way to use it is to take
two double handfuIs of fresh corn
silk and boil in two gallons of wa.
ter until but one gallon remains
Add sugar to make a syrup. Drink
a tumbler Of this thrice daily, and

Other diseases of the
and kidneys are benefited
by the remedy, which is prompt, eff |
ticient and grateful to the stomach.
The treatment can be continued |
or months without danger or incon-
