Marshes and Malaria.

The opinion formerly so prevalent,
that malaria exists only, or chiefly, in
marshy soil, appears to be successfully
combatted by Professor Tommassi, who
cites as evidence not only that the
Campagna of Rome is not really marshy,
but that, speaking roughly, two-thirds
of the malaria-strieken districts of Italy
are situated on heights. He refers to
the well-known fact, that sometimes the
surface of these districts is completely
dry during the summer, but the pro-
duction of malaria in them goes on just
the same, provided they are kept moist
below the surface by special conditions
of the subsoil, and the air can reach the
moist strata by pores or crevices in the
surface. The investigations made by
II. Tommassi and Others further show
that the direct action Of the oxygen of
the air IS SO necessary to the develop
ment Of the microscopic plant to which
the malaria is due, that the most pesti-
lential marshes become innoeuous when
the soil is completely covered BY water !;
paEements, buildings and the like, may
act in the same way. and arrest the
development of the plant by cutting off
the necessary supply of oxygen-but if.
even after the lapse Of years or of cen-
turtles, communication with the outer
air is restored, while the other condi-
tons remain the same, the soil RECEIVERS
its nexious properties.

Cotton Stalk and Weed Cutter.

A new and useful invention for cut.
ting cotton stalks, corn stalks, weeds,
etc., has been lately patented by Mr..
James II. Vannoy, of Pennington,
Grayson county, Texas. The device
consists of an interchangeable cotton
stalk cutter and sulky pillow. The inner
ends of the cutters are formed with
fanges through which are holes to re-
ceive bolts to secure them to the pillow
beam. The cutters project outward and
rearward at an angle of about forty-fve
degrees with the line of the pillow beam.
When the pillow beam is drawn forward
the cutters cut off the stalks beneath
the surface of the ground, and the beam
and cutters may be raised and lowered
by the same devices by which an ordi-
nary pillow is raised or lowered. The
cutters may be of any desired length,
and both or one of them may be used,
as the character of the work to be done
may require. Scientific American.

How to Cook Rice.
Talmage's Circular.1

Talmage's Circular.l
Rice is becoming much more popular
article of food than heretofore. 1t is
frequently substituted for potatoes at
the chief meal of the day, being more
nutritious and much more readily diges-
ted. In preparing it only just enough
cold water should be poured on to pre-
vent the rice from burning at the bot
tom of the pot, which should have a
close fitting cover, and with a moderate
fire the rice is steamed rather than
boiled until it is nearly done, then the
cover is taken off, the surplus steam
and moisture allowed Is escape, and the
rice turns out mass of snow-white
kernels, each separate from the other,
and rs much superior to the usual soggy
mass as fine, mealy potato is superior
to the water, soaked article.

S~~
Asparagus.
From the Maine Farmer.1


This delicious vegetable product is
quite Il rarity outside of city gardens
and village farms. 1t is deserving a
place on every farm, and once a good
patch of it well started, it will last a
lifetime, with little care annually.
Any good, rich, light and well drained
soil will do. 1t should be made very
rich and proved deeply. Sow the seed
in as good season as the soil will admit,
one and one-half inches deep, and a
foot apart. Previous to sowing soak the
seed twenty-four hours in warm water.
Keep soil mellow and free from weeds.
The following spring transplant into
rows two feet apart, setting the crowns
four inches beneath the ground and the
plants foot apart in the row. The
plants at first should be only covered
slightly, drawing the earth about them
as they grow until the ground is level.
Each autumn mulch heavily with stable
manure as soon as the ground begins to
freeze fork in the manure carefully
each spring. Keep clear of weeds and
cut out seed stalks to prevent seeding.
The third year the bed may be sparingly
cut, and after the third year it will pro-
duce abundantly. There is but little
choice in varieties, but more in cult
walton. 1t is in season through May
and June. Care should be taken not
to injure young shoots in forking the
manure in, or cutting the stalks. 1t is
very palatable and healthful, and adds
not only variety but luxury to the
farmers bill of fare.

Orchard grass is very early ID growth,
and furnishes good hay. It starts out
fresh Immediately after each moving.
A spoonful of paris green in a pail Of
water is recommended for killing cank-
er worms. It should not be sprinkled
over plants Of which the leaves are eaten
such as lettuce etc.
Red raspberries should be set two feet
apart in rows. and when kept well
worked the first year they will fill UP
and form continuous hedge of plants
good for ten years or more.
It is lamentable that so few farms
have supply of small fruits. Many
farmers never have berry of their own
raising, while that most hardy fruit,
the common red cherry, is not at all
plenty.
Cabbbages respond quickly to fire.
quent hoeing. It is one of the crops
upon which too much labor cannot be
bestowed. They should be cultivated
often, even when there are no weeds
among them.
Common grating wax is made by tax
ing one part of tallow, three of bees
wax and four of rosin, and melting them
together over slow fire. Melt the
rosin first, and put in the other ingre-
dients after, stirring well together
A north room in a house, properly
ventilated, is a better place to keep
milk in Summer than half the so-called
milk cellars in the country. To obtain
the most cream and best results milk
should stand thirty-six hours before
skimming.
Charred corn is excellent to feed to
hens in order to increase their egg-lay-
ing capacity. 1t is not desirable to feed
it as their general food, but a portion of
it every day will be found beneficial.
Char the corn ON the cob pretty
thoroughly, taking care not to reduce
any part of it to ashes.
In arranging perches for fowls allow
six inches for each bird. The perch
should not be placed high when there
is no space for the birds to fly down
with gradual swoop, as is natural to
them when roosting in open places.
Three feet from the ground in confined
places is high enough, and it should be
far enough from the back wall to keep
the tail plumage clear.
Breeders have noticed that re-
markable development Of the ten
dency to lay ON fat is usually ac-
eompanied by delicacy of consti
tuition, diminished secretion Of milk
and a loss of fecundity. Very fat
animals are not likely to be good breed
ers; in fact, the excessive production
Of fat is incompatible with high de-
velopment of the reproductive powers.

what Faney Farmers Have Done.
san Franciseo ehrOniele.l

San Francisco Chroniclel
They tested theories while others
raised crops for market; they have CIV
en- a glory to farming it would not
otherwise possess. Fancy farmers have
changed the wild hog into the Suffolk
and Berkshire, the wild cattle of Brit
ain into shorthorns, the mountain sheep,
with its lean body and hair fleece, into
the Southdown and Merino, They
brought up the milk of COWS from pints
to gallons. They have heightened the
sirloin of the bullock, enlarged the ham
of the hog, given strength to the shout
der of the OK, rendered finer the wool of
the sheep, added Aeetness to the horse
aud made more beautiful every animal
that is kept in the service of man.
They have improved and fastened the
development of all domestic animals I'M
til they scarcely resemble the ones from
which they sprang. Fancy farmers in
troduced irrigation and understanding
also grinding aud cooking for stock.
They have brought guano from Peru
and nitrate of soda from Chill. They in
troduced and domesticated all the plants
we have of foreign origin. They brought
out the theory of the rotation of crops
as a natural means of keeping up and
increasing the fertility of the soil. They
ground up gypsum and bones, and treat
ed the latter with acid to make manures
of peculiar value They first analysed
soil as a means ofdetermining what was
wanted to increase It's fertility. They
introduced the most improved methods
Of raising and distributing water. Fan
cy farmers or fancy horticulturists have
given us all our varieties of fruits, vege-
tables and flowers. A fancy farmer in
Vermont few years ago originated the
Early Rose potato, which added millions
of dollars to the wealth of the country,
and proved a most important accession
IN every part of the world where intro
duced. Another Of these same fancy
men originated the Wilson strawberry
and another the Concord grape. But it
is unnecessary to enumerate; any one
who will take the trouble to investigate
a little or reflect will readily see and
will cheerfully accord the praise that is
Justly due to the men who are called
fancy farmers"

made by the British government to slim
