FARM AND PRESIDE,

For warts on animals, j. B.
Mathews gives the following: Take a
small quantity of arsenic, and a good
sized piece of Irvine, dissolve the arsenic
in water, soak the Irvine in the solution,
then tie around the neck of the wart.
1t will come off in week, root and
branch. Have succeeded in it when all
other remedies failed.-Prairie Farmer.
Rats in Granaries A correspondent
of the Journal d. 1gricuttatre Progressive
suggests a method of getting rid of these
pests that has the advantage of having
been most successful in his own case It
is to fill their holes with chloride of lime
and oxalic acid, when a violent olsen
gagement of chlorine takes place, their
holes are filled with gas and they are
suffocated. t''
The test as to whether young tree
is making sufficient growth or not is made
by examining its new shoots. If these
grow twelve to fifteen inches annually,
neither manure nor additional culture is
probably needed. II less than this
length of new wood is grown, something
is needed TO stimulate the growth and
increase the vigor of the tree.-N. Y.
Examiner.
"A pretty way to cover hair cushion
is to knit stripes of zephyr worsted or of
yarn in different colors. Suppose you
have three stripes, one, of red, one of
blue, and the third of black, knit them
together, put them over the cushion, and
at each corner fasten q scarlet -bew,- or,
instead of bows at theEfour corners,

Most persons, no doubt, have seen
hogs eating hay during the winter
months, in but small quantities, it is true,
but still eating it. If clover is cut when
in fullest bloom, well cured and stored
away, the hay becomes valuable food
for hogs, especially when fed but little
else than corn. To utilize it, cut it in
cutting box, half to three-fourths of
an inch long, mixed with bran, shorts
or cornmeal, and moisten it with swill,
or even water; if made scalding hot the
better. Then let it stand for a few
hours before feeding it out. Any of the
grasses, if cut in bloom and made into
hay, will answer a good purpose. but
clover is preferable. Besides being
valuable as food hay thus fed is a pre-
ventive OF disease in hogs full fed on
corn. Chicago Journal

Some Industrial Statistics.

The Fall River minis turn out 1900
bed-quilts a day, and the Holliston,
Mass, mills 1850 pairs of blankets a
week. Seventy mills in the South now
work up yearly 100000 tons of cotton
seed. making 100000 gallons of oil,
worth S2S, 100000. The cotton mills of
the North yield an average profit of
seven per cent, while eighteen per cent.
is realized in those of the South. The
largest belt ever made from a single
width of hide has just been manufao-
tured by a Hartford firm. 1t is four feet
wide, ninety-six feet long, and weighs
1000 pounds. The clippings of sole
leather in the New England shoe-facto-
ries, that were formerly considered
worthless, are now stamped into buttons
for clothes and fancy tack-heads for up
holstery. About 2,214, 900 has been
placed in increasing the number of cot
ton-spindles in the South during the
years lSS1-S2. Georgia has added 1OO,-

Poor Shells at Alexandria.

l called attention last week to the very
unsatisfactory accounts respecting the
inefficiency of the shell fire at Aiexan-
dria. 1t seems that, so far from the un-
exploded Infiexible shell Ito which /
then alludeO being the only instance in
which the fuze failed, scores have been
found lying about in the same condi-
ton. The cost of this sort of ammuni-
ton is enormous, s1d if half of the shells
are to prove harmless, we seem to get
very little for our money. The question
demands the immediate attention of the
War Office. 1t is no use to mount great
guns for the purpose of discharging
shells which do not ignite.-LoNd c .

Interest.

The S. F. Bu1letin of May 10th,
has the following which is signiti-
cant, to say the least:
The Directors of the Hibernia
Bank, at their meeting last Friday,
reduced the rate of interest to G per
cent. per annum, the bank paying
the mortgage tax, which amounts,
one year with another, to over 2 per
cent. This year it will probably
amount to "a per cent, so that real
estate borrowers will really only be
paying 3a per cent. per year for
money. This is n lower rate than
now prevails in either Europe or st
tlIe East.
This reduction by the leading
bank here is most important one.
If this reduction is followed by
other banks and is maintained, it
will have a very decided effect in
advancing real estate prices, for even
progressive real estate is still expect
ed to pay 6per cent, though it can
now hardly be expected to do SO
much longer. The fact, too, is that
money owners have for some time
been forced to buy property. not
from choice always by any means,
hut from nccessity-simplY because
there.wa nothing else to put their
money in. United States bonds, al
present prices, are out of the ques.
ton, and SO too are good real estate
mortgages, except at rate of in.
tercst that is far below what the
very choicest Of real estate yields.
This reduction Of interest on rea1
estate loans will tend to bring rates
down on loans of all kinds, both
here and all over the coast, and thus
tend very much to encourage the
growth of manufacturing and Other
enterprises that need the use o.
cheap money ere s0lid progress car
be either expected or assured.

Steam in the Pacific.

There will be steam line with the
Hawaiian Islands soon, and one that
will probably pay from the start.
1t will be operated by the Oceanic
Company. The gentlemen interest
ed in this enterprise are large owners
of sugar plantations at the Islands,
and able to control much freight.
They have already chartered the
British steamer Suez, now on tho
way to this coast from Hongkong,
and it is probable that the new line
win be formally opened next month.
The Company will perfect its plans
as rapidly as possible, and will not
rest until the route is covered with
first-class steamers of their own.
The idea is to make the route q
pleasant one for cXcursionists from
this coast and from the East, as well
rs to give improved freight facilities.
The project of a line between San
Francisco and the Society Islands,
broached some time ago, has not
been abandoned, as many have sup
posed. The promoters still feel con-
fidcnt that it is only question of
time when steamer will be secured
for that service, the trip to be made
in twenty days. Such movement
would be of benefit TO that group OF
islands.-S. r. Bulletin, May II.

FORESTRY.

The Legislative Assembly of 1876
passed an Act " For the Protection
and Preservation of Woods and
Forests. The preamble was in these
words: Whereas, it is an establish
ed fact that the destruction OF
forests in any country tends to
diminish the supply of water" &C.
The Act authorizes the Minister Of
the Interior to set apart and cause to
be protected from damage such
government forest lands as may be
suited for the protection Of water
sources; to employ superintendent
of woods and forests; to lease crown
lands that may be wooded; &C., &c.
Nothing whatever has been ACCOM-
plished, or even attempted to be
done under this law, which has been
one of the laws of the land six years.
Section vi. reads The sum of
-dollars is hereby appropriated
for the purpose of carrying out the
provisions of this Act;" but the
blank was never filled up with any
sum. Now the query: Have we
been so absorbed, during the past
six years, in the growing Of sugar,
that we have lost sight of the "es-
tablished fact that the destruction of
forests in any country tends to
diminish the supply of water" +?
Early in last month, at Cincinnati,
Ohio, there was organized (the first
in the United States) " National
Congress of Forestry" at which
$500 persons were present from all
parts of the Union and from foreign
countries. DR.. Loring of Massachu-
sctts, who delivered the address,
concluded by urging on the Congress
F" the most careful consideration of
the topics before it: The use of
forests; the influences, injurious and
beneficial, of forests; the education
al.means by which We may become
acquainted with forestry work. To
what extent can the landowner enter
profitably upon the business of tree
planting and forest culture! What
legislation can the States best adopt
for the increase and preservation of
their forests? How shall the General
Government provide for the planting
of forests on its public lands? What
is the precise extent of forest waste /!
What is the comparative value of
various timber trees! How shall we
secure wind-breaks on the prairies ?
BY what chemical process can we
preserve our timber used in building
and fencing? What forest trees are
best adapted to various localities !?
These are questions which should he
answered as definitely US possible.
They are questions which the Amer
lean people are anxious to have an
swered, and before which all dis
cussion of foreign legislation, all
consideration of the value of wood
products, all statistics of trade, all
study of land tenure, sink into i'll
significance"
