The Farmers Fish.

During the last four years there
has been much interest taken in
the cultivation Of fish as an artl
Gle of food. Through the labors
sf the National and State Com
much light has been
thrown on the subject Of their cul-
tivation. Among other things it
has been demonstrated that at very
slight expense the farmers may
have at hand constantly a supply
of fresh meat food that will in
some degree take the place of ami
NAL food.
Prof. Baird, United States j sh
Commissioner, declares the carp to
be, Of all others, the hest adapted
to the wants of farmers, and calls
It sthe farmers fish" While
trout and bass require not only
very pure but cool water, and an
abundance of it, and most OF the
inferior varieties Of fish require va
ter at least moderately cool, clear
and abundant. the carp is in its
element in water moderately warm,
and requires but little of it, 1t
prefers, the Professor says, a pond
whose bottom and banks are com
posed of mud, the mud affording it
a shelter in cold weather. and pro-
duclng plants which it relishes as
food.
The carp is not dainty feeder.
1t will eat anything that pigs and
fowls relish. and will dcvour in-
sects, small reptiles, and meats OF
all kinds, 1t also eats nearly all
kinds of or en- vegetables, fruits
and garbage. 1t can be fattened
on grain as easy as pigs and tur-
keys are, and the young are espec-
tally fond of sweet card and liver.
The carp possesses a number OF
good qualities that render it val
liable fish. 1t is thoroughly do
1t can be transported
easier and will live longer out OF
W ster than any other scale fish. 1t
is exceedingly prolific, a large one
often yielding as many as four
hundred thousand eggs. No hatch
ing house is needed, The eggs
hatch in a few days, and the
young, when not disturbed, grow
rapidly.
The flesh of the carp is not as
delicate as that OF some other var
ieties Of fish, and in summer it is
hardly fit to be eaten. But for the
most part OF the year it is disable.
and as edible food it may be ranked
with the substantials Of people OF
moderate means.
1t is possible that the future far
mers may raise carp as they now
raise beef and pork for table use
and for market.-Gacinnatj Com

The Way to Handle sheep.

a great many men will catch
the sheep by the wool on the back
with both hands, and lift the AMI
NAL clear from the ground by the
wool only. We have slaughtered a
great many sheep in years past
and when removing the pelts OF
such sheep as had been handled
by the wool, we never failed to
observe that beneath the skin
whenever the animal had been
caught by the wool, blood had
settled. In many instances the
skin had been separated from the
body so that inflammation was APP
parent. We have known proprie-
tors OF sheep to be 30 strict in re-
gard to handling them, that they
would order a helper from the
premises If he were to catch sheep
by the wool or any part of the
body. When about to catch a
sheep, move carefully towards the
one to be taken until you are
sufficiently near to spring quickly
and seize the beast with both hands,
then, pass one hand around the
body, grasp the brisket, and lit
the sheep clear from the ground.
The wool must not be pulled. If the
sheep is aheavy one, let one hand
land wrist be put around the neck
and the arm pressed against thu
LEG. We have also handled SHEEP
in the way alluded to, We never
grasp the wool. Others seize The
sheep by hind leg, then throw one
arm around the body and take hOl
OF the brisket with one hand. Blu
ewes with lambs should never b
caught by the hind legs, unlea
they are handled with extrem
care.

born. 1t Is very much in the bring
ng up-in the way a colt is cared
ior, and the manner in which it is
broken. Firmness, with kindness,
goes very far in making a valuable
horse. The colt should early learn
that it is never TO lie deceived that
it is TO be encouraged and rewafdef
when Incident, aud punished by
the Withholding of caresses when
disobadient. The same natural
qualities that make a horse vicious
will, witlproper treatment, make
one of those intelligent and spirited
horses that all desire TO possess.
The true trainer Of colts is geatic,
loving, firm and thoughtful; and the
young animals under his charge
partake Of the samo qualities.

CHLORIDE OF LIME.-A French
journal states that chloride of lime
scattered abou. where rats and
mice frequent will cause them to
desert the spot. A solution OF it
brushed over plants will effectually
protect them from insects. Ii

gruSs, it win free it entirely
Bunches of cotton or tow smcared

Many farmers wives lead dreary
sort of life. They work from early
morn till late at night with no
time for recreation or reading. They
can find very little time to read the
family newspapers. This hard lite
they endure with cheerfulness and
are well satisfied if their labors
are appreciated, which, sad to say,
is not always the case. There are
some very unreasonable, selfish,
and unthinking men, who find no
word OF appreciation or appreciation
Of the labors of their faithful wives,
IA few words Of hearty apprecia-
ton are sometimes more precious
than gold to the weary and dis
|couraged.

RED AVIS IN THE PANTRY.-The

RED ANTS IN THE PANTRY.-The
ants are attracted to the pantry by
the food, They come from outside
Of the house, in all probability, and
by watching them closely their
kaunts or nests may be discovered.
These may be destroyed. These
may be destroyed by pouring on to
them mixture of water with one
twentieth part Gifts bulk Of car
bolic acid. The ants may be de-
stroyed in the pantry by sleeping
two or three pieces Of sponge in
molaseee diluted with water, and
laying them in the way Of the ants.
The ants win 60 into the sponges,
and these should be dropped into
boiling wafer, squeezed cut, and
sweetsned and laid again. There
j. no moro effective trap than this.

ing the hot weather has been large
all over The country, aud even here
In our mountain home, with its
fresh and invigorating breezes'
many family mOurns the loss OF
its latest and most cherished treas
rre. We give below the rules
published by the West End Free
Dispensary, Of Baltimore, which,
to great extent, have been ap-
proved by many physicians OF this
country. and as the Baltimore Sun
says would, if observed, no doubt
prevent the large increase Of NOR
tslity among infants during the hot
season.
"yVhen an infant refuses food let
il alone for a time. Over feeding
does mere harm than anything
else. Nurse an infant a month or
two old every two or three hours.
Nurse an infant of six months and
over five times in twenty-four hours
and no more. The appetite OF a
child is good gauge Of its power
of digestion. The rule should be-
when food disagrees, ''llttle and
seldom" and not "little and Of
tsn." In feeding infants put a
teaspoonful Of powdered barley
ground in a coffee-grinder,) in a
gill of water, with little salt, and
boil for fifteen minutes, STRAIN;
then mix with half as much boiled
milk and teaspoOnful Of white
sugar. and give it lukewarm from
a nursing-bottle.-Be sure to keep
the bottle and mouth-pisce, when
not in use, in water with a little
soda it in, Infants five or SIX
months old should have half bar
lev water and boiled milk, with
salt and lump of sugar. Other
infants require more milk than bar
lev water. For infants very cos
tive give oatmeal instead of barley,
which must be cooked and strained
as before. When the mother only
partially nurses her infant alter
nate breast milk and the prepared
food. In hot weather, if blue lit
mus paper applied to the food
turns red. the food is too acid. and
you must make a fresh mess or
add small pinch Of baking soda.
After six months infants may have
beef or mutton soup at least once
a day, and when ten months old ,
crust of bread and a piece of rare
beef to suck. All sweets should
be carefully guarded against
Summer complaint is produced
from overlooking and hot and foul
air. Keep doors and windows
open. Wash your well children

oftenez in the hot season. Never
neglect loosenese of the bowsls in
an infant. Consult physician at
