4 GsaOUL's DEATH.

\ dispatch from Syracuse, New York,
says: CDR. Henry Kendall of this city,
prominent young physician, was found
early Thursday morning of last week,
living in an open meadow few miles
from this city, with a bullet wound III
the centre Of his forehead penetrating 10
the brain. The spot where the young
man was found is about one hundred feet
from the cemetery where the dead arc IN
TERED from the Onandoga county poor
house. There was evidence of terrible
Struggle near the wounded man and the
earth was swimming in blood. Plain foot
tracks led from the body to the new made
grave in the cemetery, which was half
disintcrrcd, showing that Kendall was
engaged III a ghoulish task of robbing
grave when surprised by his unknown
aSSailants. Near by were two shovelS
wrapped together in piece of old carpet
and Il satchel. On his person was a dirk
and two rcvolvers in his belt. IL the
satchel was bottle of whiskey, account
book, Il long piece of rope, dark lantern,
Il bit aud stalk and screw-driver, and
other tools used in srave-robbing. In
his pocket was found = card OH which
was written:
BE sure; eight o'clock Kendall has
made i'm the past business of furnishing
bodies for the medical college i'll this city,
but lie has had falling out with that i'll
stitution, and has lately been engaged in
supplying some colleges elsewhere. He
is aged about twenty-five years, and is of

ance with his relatives, as he about four
months ago married beautiful servant
girl employed in his fathers house. Why

What Parlslans Dine Upon.
Cor. Now YORK sun.

Paris is no longer the gastronomic par
adise that it was of old. The Parisians
dine on the architecture of set dishes, on
damask linen, on the brilliancy of the
glassware, on the flowers that are on the
table, on the white cravats of the walters,
but on butter at so cents a pound, and on
ordinary wine from the wine shops round
the corner, on fish with the bones painted
in bistre on the fillets by one of those
mysterious and ingenious artists whose
speciality is to do Kitchen painting"
The inventor of this industry was one
named Chapellier, who invented the
trade of painter of turkeys feet.S He
had noticed that the poulterers lost large
ly on stale stock. The sign by which the
staleness Of turkey, for instance, is be-
trayed in the increasing paleness of the
legs and feet.
Chapellier invented varnish TO tone
up the color. His ssuccessors have invent
ed many other tricks which are the provi-
dence of second-class game and fish deal
ers.
Oh the meanness OF some apparently
brilliant Parisian households is awful 20

FACTS FOR FARMERS.
ARTICLES AND ITEMS OF INTEREST
tn TIIIERs or THE SOIL.
The Apple-Tree Borer.

When permitted to have his own way
this is very destructive enemy TO the
young apple orchard, but can be preven-
ted from doing any injury by very little
labor, if it be properly directed and per-
formed at the right time. Those who
have kept the trunks Of their trees pro-
tected during the summer with mound
of coarse sand or a covering of paper
should not neglect to remove the protec'
ton before the cold weather sets In, and
carefully examine the trees to make sure
that no worms have Matched out. If the
trees had been examined in September,
as they should have been, whatever
worms that had been able to avoid the
protection would have been very small,
not much more than one-fourth of an
inch in length, and so near the surface
of the bark that, by scraping with knife,
his lodging place could have readily been
discovered and the worm destroyed but
if the work of examinati IN has been de-
layed until much later the worm will
have increased very much in size, and
have eaten his way down from four to six
inches from where the egg was hatched.
As the worm proceeds downward he will
penetrate the bark nearer to the wood,
and may be found between the inner
bark and the wood of the tree.
A worm that has advanced TO this stage
has caused a permanent injury to the
tree by making defect which furnishes
one of the best places for depositing the
eggs for another generation. The miller
rarely deposits an egg on a smooth sur
face, but almost invariably selects some
DETECTION and if mound so much the
better In such places the eggs are pro-
tected before they hatch, and the little
worms when hatched find moist place
to start life in. This is important, for If
they should hatch out on a hard smooth
surface they would find it very difficult
TO eat their first breakfast, especially IL
| they should chance TO commence life du-
ring dry weather.
One of the secrets of keeping borers
from an orchard is to keep the trunk pro-
tected during May, June, July and Aug
ust, up to point where the trunk of the
tree is smooth, but no protection should
be fully relied on. The trees should be
carefully examined twice year-first in
May, when the protection is placed
around the tree. and in the autumn, when
the protection is removed.

Effects of Draining.

First-It removes the surplus water
and prevents ponding in the soil. 1t
should be noted that if the drains are
used they should be of sufficient size to
remove the surplus water in twenty-four
hours.
Second-It prevents the accumulation
of poisons in the soil that result from
stagnant water, either above or below the
surface.
Third-The ammonia is carried down
into the soil by the descending rain,
stored for the plant food instead of stop
ping on the surface, or borne away with
the surface waste.
Fourth-It deepens and enriches the
soil by opening the ground, allowing the
roots of the plant to go deeper into the
earth decaying after harvest, they form
this subsoil into surface soil, providing
resources tor the plant more reliable, and
making the same ground better for cult
walton for greater length of time.
Fifth-It avoids drought, bv enabling
the plant to thrust its roots deeper into
the soil.
Sixth-The drainage increases the
temperature of the soil. In some cases
the average has been increased as much
as ten degrees.
Seventh-By securing uniformity of
condition for plant growth, it hastens
the maturing of the crop from ten days
to two weeks.
Eighth-It enables the farmer to work
his land in wet or dry seasons nd in
sures return for the labor bestowed.
With our land thoroughly drained we can
carry on the operation of farming with
as great success and as little effect from
bad weather as any business which de-
pends on such a variety of circumstances.
We shall have substantial certainty for
chance as far rs IL is in our power to do
80, and make Turning an art rather tina
venture.

Fine Clothes at school.


Young ladies naturally desire to look
as pretty as they can. II is right that they
should and the rest Of mankind like to
have them follow their instincts and
wishes in this respects.
A mother, however, complains that
her daughter, who cannot afford such
fine clothes as are worn by most of her
schoolmates, and yet cannot give up her
education, is made very unhappy by the
contemptuous looks, and the intentional
sights of some of her companions, be-
cause of her plain, cheap Dire sses.
Perhaps the daughter is too sensitive,
and so, possibly, a little morbid on the
subject, and only fancies that her com
panions are regarding her palmer clothes
with contempt. One thing is certain,
however, that nothing can be more out
OF place, or a surer indication of vulgari-
ty, than the wearing of very expensive
clothes to school; unless it may be the
looking down with contempt upon girls
who cannot.
Our own observation has led us to the
opinion that in our best schools the
young ladies who are neatly and plainly
clad. and are eager scholars, are very
much respected by their companions
while the girls who cover themselves
with finery are rather laughed at, and in
some cases despised.
They manage these things very sensi-
bly, in some of the countries Of Europe.
In some of the best schools on the
Continent, there are rules which either
prevent or forbid the wearing of extrava-
CANT clothes by scholars. The dress is
prescribed. In many instances, no jewel
ry is permitted in the school.
4 young lady who went last summer
! from New York to celebrated school in
| in Germany was surprised to find that
| her two large trunks full of fine clothes
/ were of no use to her. Only four dresses
were allowed TO be brought to the school

Even the dress for Sunday and fol

and unobtrusive in style and material
| She was consoled however, to know that
several young ladies' of highest rank
were Obliged to conform to the same
rule.
The truth is, that obtrusive ornaments
and showy dresses are not worn by cul
tivated people who are habituated tc
opulence: tits generally the person whC
fell into a gold mine the day before yes
terday that is most apt to go to excess in
iewelry and satins and laces.
Young ladies of taste and good sense
can make themselves lovely to look upon
without spending large amounts of mo
ney upon their toilet
The Osceola times., 1882-12-30
Fall Flowing.

ANY one who has seen the best Euro
pean farming knows how important it is
to thoroughly prepare the soil for the seed.
The working of the soil adds nothing, but
it helps in changing the form of the plant
food compounds, and thus plowing and
narrowing becomes indirectly a source
of nourishment. The soil is vast store
house of plant food which it holds by
virtue of its insolubility. Furthermore,
it is only through the action of the air,
and all those processes, chemical and
otherwise, which are covered by such
terms as weathering, nitritication, etc,
that these essential elements are brought
into soluble form and made available
for the growing plant.
The chemistry Of the soil, as it becomes
better understood, teaches in every line
the importance of frequent stirring Of
the surface of the cropped field. With
this in mind it is to the purpose to urge
the importance of fall blowing. For other
than chemical reasons the stubble or sod
may be turned under in the fall. Not
only will the air circulate more freely,
and the process of reducing the insoluble
substances goes on more rapidly, but the
mechanical texture of the heavy soil es-
pecially will be improved. Should in
sects or their larvae or "worms" abound
in the earth they will by this be turned
out of their winter quarters and destroy
cd Aside from these Advantages there is
a lull in the farm work at this season, and
any plowing or other labor with the soil
will help materially TO lessen the rush
and hurry that usually comes with the
busy months Of spring. The thoughtful
and successful farmer so plans his farm
ing operations that one season helps the
next in more ways than one.
