BUTTERMILK.

Few persons know, or seem to know,
its value. A proper and constant use
of buttermilk will entirely cure the
constant craving for stimulants to
which many persons, from long use,
have habituated themselves. Have it
handy, and when the appetite says
whisky or other stimulant, drink half a
tumbler of buttermilk. The craving
desire viii be satisfied, and the stomach
will be much benefited and strength
ened, instead of weakened. There are
very many good effects from the free
use of buttermilk. 1t alone will often
permanently cure sour stomach. The
Tactic acid needed by many persons is
supplied by buttermilk much more
largely than by any other food or bev-
erage One vital and important use of
buttermilk is the prevention of valvular
ossi6cation of the valves of the heart,
from which, in this country, so many
persons die, especially old persons.
There are many other peculiar so-called
heart diseases which Tactic acid, if par
taken of freely, prevents. The so-called
fluttering or palpitation of the heart,
consequent upon a disordered, dyspep-
tic stomach, can be entirely removed
by free use Of buttermik. There are
many other unpleasant feelings thus
cured. all of which have their seat in
the stomacb-melancholy, the blues. etc.

HOW TO HARVEST.

To take time by the forelock is al
ways to be commended. Everybody
interested in agricultural pursuits is
supposed to know how TO harvest un-
der favorable conditions of wind and
weather. Everybody should know how
TO perform the annual duty in times
that are bad, and when the elements
combine to be exasperating and diabol-
zeal. We believe that we may be doing
our readers a service in giving them
the results of one mans experience in
the harvest field, for on the harvest de-
ponds the majority of the interests of
this terrene existence. According to
the Farmer, some years ago the Royal
Agricultural Society of England offered
prize of some considerable value for
an essay on the best mode of securing
the harvest in an unfavorabIe season.
A Mr.. Edward Eddison won the prize,
and his directions, based upon many
years experience, were as follows:
l. Reap early.
?. Nal e small sheaves.
5. Use single bands, j. e., one length
of straw only
4. Leave sheaves open as long as you
can before binding.
.. Never allow the sheaves to lie all
night on the ground.
6. Make small shocks.
z. Do not use hoods.
8. Rather let the wheat be muck in
the shock than muck in the stack
8. Carefully watch it, and, when dry,
carefully cart it.
He adds that in stacking he cuts
grip nine or ten inches deep all around
the stack bottom and about a foot from
ii, and takes care at the lowest point TO
have a clear opening or water-course,
and throw all the cuttings into the mid
die, so as to make the bottom convex !;
then put layer of straw, as much as
would be a very good bedding for a
tired horse. Upon that build the stack.

PRUNING IN JUNE.

We have tried pruning in almost all
months of the year, and on the whole
prefer June. This being about the bus
lest month of the year, there is usually
little time for pruning, and so the ia
vorite time is early in spring, and many
of cur old orchards, in their rotting
limbs and deeayed trunks, bear testi-
mony to the ill-timed use of the saw
and ak. Small limbs an inch iii diam
ete- or less can be taken OF at any time
with comparative safety. But thor
ough pruning called for in long-neg-
lected orchard is best done in the early
summer The sap is absorbed by the
rapid formation of wood and leaves (;
the wood is laid bare in pruning large
limbs and soon becomes scared; the
healing process around the edges of the
wound begins Immediately, and in
few years the wound will be completely
covered with new wood and bark.
There is no chance for decay as when
large limbs are removed IN the early
spring. There is far too little pruning
done in the farm orchard. A dead
limb should not be suffered upon the
fruit tree. Good pruning leaves no
stubs, but cuts close to the trunk or
branch bearing the excised limb

OBJ dditbita Gagt,
THE BEE MOTH.

The bee moth is grayish insect
about three-fourths of an inch i'll length.
During the day it conccals itself in some
nook or corner about the hive, perhaps
under the projecting edge of the roof,
and its color being nearly that of
weather-beaten board, il is not readily
seen. Upon the approach of evening
it leaves its hiding place and fits about
the hive, ever and anon darting to-
wards the entrance, only TO be driven
away by the sentinel bees. Not being
allowed to enter the hive, it finally con-
tents itself by depositing its eggs in
some nook or crevice, as near as posi-
BILE TO the entrance, trusting that they
may hatch and the larvae may crawl
unnoticed into the hive, or that the
eggs may become attached TO the bees
feet and thus be carried into the hive.
At least, all authorities agree that the
presence of the larvae in the hive can be
accounted for in no other manner.
Bees do not allow the moth TO enter the
hive, and in strong colony their larva
are seldom seen, probably because the
bees destroy them soon after they
hatch; but a box or comb of honey
taken from q strong colony, and secure
ly sealed up so that the moth can have
no access TO it, and placed in a warm
room, will soon be found infested with
Larvae.
Losses among bees are often attrib-
uted by ignorant bee-keepers to the
millers, when il would be more proper,
in such cases, TO call the devastations of
the bee moths an effect rather than a
cause. For instance, colony becomes
queenless and dwindles away to mere
handful. In such case il is possible
that the moth may gain access to the
combs; but, be that as it may, there is
an insufficient number of bees to pro-
tect and care for the combs, and in the
deserted parts of the hive the larvae Of
the bee moth construct their silken gal
leries unmolested. When the last few
bees have died, or robbers have over
powered them and commenced carry
ing away the honey that is not yet COW
cred with webs, then the careless own
er examines the hive and renders the
verdict-'Destroyed by millers."-

Good Advice.

Other people may find the advice of
Daniel Webster TO his grandson of value
for themselves. He wrote it about four
years before his death:
''Two or three things I wish now to
impress on your mind. First, you can
not learn without your own efforts. All
the teachers in the world can never
make a scholar of you, if you do not
apply yourself with all your might.
In the second place. be of good charac-
ter and good behavior-a boy Of strict
truth and honor and conscience in all
things. Have but one rule, and let that
be always to act right and fear nothing
but wrong doing. Finally: 'Remem-
Der your Creator in the days. Of your
youth You are old enough to know
that God has made you and given you
q mind and faculties. and will surely
call you to account. Honor and obey
your parents, love your sister and
brother, be gentle and Kind to all, avoid
peevishness and fretfulness, be patient
under restraint. Look forward con-
stantly to your approaching manhood,
and put off every day, more and more,
all that is frivolous and childish"

A Monument to LOngfellOw.

An Eastern paper says: ''The friends
of Mr.. Longfellow are not slow in devils
inc an adequate and suitable memorial
The poet had great fondness for the clear
sky and the clear blue waters
of the Charles River, and to
keep his view of the Charles un-
broken purchased many years ago the
strip of land which gave him an unob-
structed range from behind the lilacs in
front of the Craigie House down to the
bank of the river on the Cambridge SIDE
It pleased his poetical instinct and was a
notable feature of his home. 1t is now
proposed that this open field shall be
purchased at the expense of donors to a
Longfellow memorial fund, and convert
ed into garden property, in the center
of which statue of the poet shall be
placed as the local tribute of affection
for his name and of gratitude for his
work This will retain the association
of Mr.. Longfellow's presence with the
fine old historical mansion in which he
lived, and the plan is understood to meet
with the sympathy and approval of the
poets friends and family. It is pro-
posed to raise 100000 for this object,
and to give young and old who have
profted BY Longfellow's poems, or to
have been drawn to him in any way, an
opportunity of sharing in the contribu-
tons necessary to the execution of the
plan. The officers and committees are
not yet announced, but the movement
has been so generally approved by those
who knew Longfellow best, and touches
so tender sentiment in the young life
of the country. that the arrangements
for subscriptions will soon be completed,
and those most interested in it are quite
sure of hearty response from all
English-speaking people. The plan was
first suggested by Mr.. Arthur Gilman,
of Cambridge, few days after Mr..
Longfellow' death, and met with instant
recognition and approval

The Gopher and Prairie Squirrel.


The fact is, the gophers and ground
squirrels belong to different and widely
separated genera, and there is nothing
in common. between them. The gopher
is an underground worker, like the mole,
and isseldom seen abroad in tie daylight.
1t is moreover q vegetarian, living for
the most part upon the roots which it
finds in its underground travels though
: 1t no doubt takes in such grubs, worms
other like ''small DEER as may come in
its way. In unsettled prairie regions its
principal diet, no doubt, consists of the
roots OF the native grasses and weeds,
being especially fond of the tubers of
the Wild Eaxtichoke. Where it burrows
in cultivated fields it makes sad havoc
with the tame grasses and clover, not
only by devouring the roots, but by
throwing up large heaps of dirt which
cover large spaces and smother out the
vegetation. Then they dig their pas
sageway so near the top of the ground

will break through. The result of this
is that they are capable of doing great
damage to Our. meadows They are also
very destructive in an orchard, rs they
frequently devour all the roots of an
apple tree. and one never knows what
they are doing until the tree begins 10
lean to one side, and is about ready to
fall. In the spring of 1880 we lost dozen
choice trees, just ready to. come into

The Use Of Morphia.

q "A recent painful case of death caused
by hypodermic injection of morphia. u
says the London Lancet, directs atten-
ton afresh to the dangers Of resorting
to this most perilous mode of administers
ing drugs designed to relieve pain. The
public should be warned against the
practice of employing remedies hypo.
dermically. So formidable remedy
should on no account be used except un-
der medical advice, and, when deemed
necessary, it ought to be given by prac-
titioners. We have repeatedly urged the
profession to discountenance the re
course to injections under the skin.
which is becoming general. It's aprac.
tice OF extreme hazard, and we are of
opinion that surgical instrument makers
should refuse to sell the requisite appa-
ratus to lay persons, and that medical
men should forbid their use' e
