Successful poultry raisers are those
who always have pure water and grass

never be permitted access to the horse
stable, and it is bad policy to allow
them to make themselves at home in the

separate from the stable.
AS rule it is better to SOW grass
seed early than late, for when the sun

in the cracking of heavier soils, which is

Where the Tax Falls.

| The Farmers Journal directs attention
to significant fact, that seems to have
lutte escaped public attention, in con-
nection with the tax on distilled spirits,
viz. that whisky which is used as bev-
erage, and is at best but a luxury, pays
but about one half the tax per gallon
that is paid by alcohol, which enters into
the arts and manufactures and is a
chemical agent of inestimable value.
The explanation is that whisky is only
about one half the strength or proof OF
alcohol. ..,
Many seem to think that high tax
tends to lessen the use of spirits as a
| beverage. This view, however, does
not seem to be sustained by the facts or
the statistics of the Revenue Department.
Before the tax was put upon spirits fully
SO per cent. of all that was made was
used in the arts and in manufacturing.
Now nearly all that is made appears to
be consumed as beverage. Before the
days of the tax alcohol was extensively
used, in preparing dyes for calico, car
pets, etc. 1t was also LARGELY used by
furniture manufacturers, varnish makers,
matters, druggists and in many otherin-
dustries. Now wherever it is possible
substitutes are employed, such as wood
spirits and fusel oil, which have an Oh
jectionable odor and are rank poisons.
1t is estimated by those most compe-
! tent to Judge that if the tax should be
reduced to so cents per gallon that at
least 16, 900, 900 gallons of alcohol would
be used in the above industries. This
would create a market for over 4.000,-
600 bushels of grain, while it is further
claimed that the Government would
suffer no loss of revenue. .a.

The Use Of Ammonia in Baking.

The recent discoveries in science and
chemistry are fast 'revoiutionizing our
daily domestic economies. Old methods
are giving way to the light of modern in
vestigation, and the habits and methods
of our fathers and mothers are stepping
down and out, to be succeeded by the new
ideas, with marvellous rapidity. In no
department of science, however, have
more rapid strides been made than in its
relation to the preparation and preserva
ton of human food. -. Scientists, having
discovered how to traverse space, furnish
heat and beat time itself, by the applica-
ton of natural forces, and to do hun
dred other things promotive of the COM
fort and happiness of human kind, are
naturally turning their attention TO the
development of other agencies and pow
ers that shall add to the years during
which man may enjoy the blessings set
before him.
Among the recent discoveries in this
direction none is more important than
the uses to which common ammonia can
be properly put as a leavening agent, and
which indicate that this familiar salt is
hereafter to perform an active part in the
preparation of our daily food.
The carbonate of ammonia is an ex-
ceedingly volatile substance. Place a
small portion of it upon knife and hold
over flame, and it will almost imme-
diately be entirely developed into gas
and pass off into the air. The gas thus
formed is simple composition of nitro
gen and hydrogen. No residue is left
from the ammonia. This gives it its
superiority as a leavening power over
soda and cream of tartar when used
alone, and has induced its use as sup
plement to these articles. A small guam
tity of the ammonia in the dough is eff
fective in producing bread that will be
lighter, sweeter, and more wholesome
than that risen by any other leavening
agent. When it is acted upon by the
heat of baking the leavening gas that
raises the dough is liberated. In this act
it uses itself up, as it were the ammonia
is entirely diffused, leaving no trace or
residuum whatever. The light, fluffy,
f1aky appearance, so desirable in biscuits,
etc, and so sought after by professional
cooks, is said to be impaired to them
only by the use of this agent.
The bakers and baking powder manu-
facturers producing the finest goods have
been quick to avail themselves of this
useful discovery, and the handsomest
and best bread and cake are now largely
risen by the aid of ammonia, combined
of course with other leavenng material
Ammonia is one of the best known
products of the laboratory. If, as seems
to be justly claimed forit, the application
of its properties to the purposes of cook
ing results in giving us lighter and more
wholesome bread, biscuit and cake, it
will prove boon to dyspeptic humanity,
and will speedily force itself into general
use in the new field to which science has
assigned it. Scientific american.

If the intention of those who orr
ginated the Shipherd investigation
was to kill off Blaine as Republican
leader and possible Presidential
candidate they are not making extra
ordinary Roadway. Nobody apprec-
iates this better that Mr.. Blaine him
SELF Nobody is more surprised and
amused at the tactics of his enemies
than Mr.. Blaine. If they had concei-
we'd the idea of preserving the Plum
ed Knight in the minds of the people
of the country it would have been
difficult to suggest more successful
method than the one adopted from the
hour of General Garfeld's death
When the deadly missile of the
cowardly assassin had done it's
perfect work, Blaine was to all ap-
pearances overwhelmed, crushed by
circumstances To all appearances
his political career ended in Garfeld's
grave. Undoubtedly Mr.. Blaine
really thought so. A more detected
and broken malone who gave
every indication of being heartsick of
the world and its ruined hopes and
disappointment could have scarce
ly been found last October. And
many there were who spoke commits
eratingly of him as an altogether
broken-down man.
The Blaine of to-day is quite a
different individual, says a correspon-
dent of New York journal. "In
the committee room to-day he seemed
ten years younger. His blue eyes
were full of fiery snaps, there was a
healthy glow in his usually pale
cheeks, while his manner was round
and robust as of old. It was an ex-
traordinary occasion, but it gave him
the opportunity to pose before the
country to his own honor and glory
and he knew it, and he was eager to
take advantage of it-too eager in
the opinion of many"
Judging from an anti-Blaine stand
point the Shipherd investigation has
been a fiat failure-as discreditable
to its originators as it has been bar
rem of result
