AGRICULTURE.

V1NEGAR.-The use of acid IN or with
the food is necessary for health. The di-
gestive agent of the stomach is an acid and
consists chiefly of that kind known as
hydlo-chloric, or murlatic; and commonly
as spirit of salt, because 1t IS produced by
the decomposition of salt which is CON-
bination of this acid and soda; or muri-
attic of chloride Of soda. When salt is
taken into the stomach and is digested or
dissolved and becomes associated with an
acid or sulphur, the sulphurlc acid COM
bines with the soda or the salt, forms sui
phate of soda, that very useful and health
full medicine known as glauber salts, and
leaves the hydro-chloric acid free to
strengthen the gastric juice or solvent acid
of the stomach. But this Is not what we
set out to write about; that is vinegar;
which Is another acid, viz, acetic acid.
Acetlc acid is produced by the decompo-
sitlon of starch or sugar. Wen bread turns
sour in the making, vinegar is formed In
il, because the fermentation produced by
the yeast has gone too far and has changed
the starch OF the flour first into sugar, and
then into vinegar. No vinegar can be
produced without sugar and any liquid
sweetened with sugar can be changed into
vinegar very quickly by the use OF yeast,
or even by exposure to the air more slowly.
The best vinegar Is made from cider, be-
cause 1t is quite pure; an excellent vinegar
is made from alcohol, largely diluted with
water and exposed TO the air freely, by
causing 1t to drip IN small streams or drops
through beech shavlngs or birch twigS
The common vinegar of the shops is thus
made, or rather should be, but sad TO say,
the greed of men is so strong, at least
among the vinegar makers, that good deal
OF the vinegar sold Is largely diluted with
sulphuric acid or oil of vltriol, which is
the sourcst acid known, but is most cor
rosive and injurious and poisonous sub
stance. Vinegar so made will very soon
rot cucumbers and other pickles until they
are mere soft paste. The only vinegar
used in household should be apple or
cider vinegar, or otherwise made from ma
pie sap boiled down one half, or from
water in which sugar or molasSes is dis
solved until it Is distinctly sweet; the
sweeter it Is the stronger the vinegar. Put
few gallons of this in a jar and keep 1t
in warm place; and put in 1t piece of
brown paper covered with yeast. In a
few days the paper will oe covered with a
sort of !elly, which is called the vinegar
mother and this soon changes the whole
liquid into pure vinegar. piece of this
mother put IN new batch will again make
vinegar: but al tnat is needed is To add
sweetened water TO the vinegar jar or barrel
to replenish it as 1t is drawn upon.

LAST week boy down in Lee county
rugged himself up in sheet one night
and sneaked around the house to stand
at the window of his brothers room and
play ghost. But he forgot to count on
the dog, who didn't believe in ghosts,
and pretended to sleep by the kitchen
chimney. The ghost materlallzed about
five feet from the chimney, and when
the doctor came he cauterized nineteen
holes in 1t, while the dog, with his tail
standing straight up in the air like a
mast, walked around the yard on his tip
toes, and talked bass, and asked every
body he met what he should fly at next.

The opinion is confidently expressed by
Professor William KING, of Queens Col
lege, Galway, that the geological forma-

tween England and France must run is
such as to expose the tunnel to water leak
age, which will greatly interfere with It's
success. He thinks the proposed Inning of
concrete will not answer at all, and SAYS it
should be lined throughout with impervi-
ous stone of the most endurable character.
This would increase the expense of the

The BATTLE CT THE BREEDS. The COM
ing season will probably witness genuine
revival IN the live stock business, especial
ly as applied 10 the breeding of pure blood
cattle. European purchases during the
past winter, have been larger than at any
time for years past, and the cattle secured
for America are the very highest pedigreed
stock. 1t has become evident that the
grand struggle for supremacy between the
different families of beef cattle has become
one of great proportions. The short horn
fanciers are certainly intent upon preserv-
ing their present position, while tie men
who perceive beauty and profit only In the
Herefords are equally bent, upon forcing
their favorites Into the front rank. L4et,
but not least, are the pooled Angus, or
Aberdeen fanciers, and this breed of hardy
Scotch cattle Is gradually winning its way,
its growing popularito being based on many
points of excellence. Black polIed cattle
are bringing fabulous prices, the best of
the tribe being secured for American bree-
ders. English exchanges assert that the
rage for the cattle is unprecedented in the
history of the county, and the natural con-
sequences will be to spur other breeders 10
renewed efforts.

TINE To SECURE BETTER ST. CK.-Every
year of prosperity among the farming class
brings to the surface men who Incline 10
put up better buildings, to stock up with
improved farm animals or to do both these
very commendable acts. Accumulated
money burns IN the palm, and many right
thinking even see way to keep the grown
up boys at home, by giving them an op-
portunity to. care for improved animals,
especially If they are made part owners
in these. Now, TO ali who are so incline d,
the present sale season will afford most
excellent opportunities 10 place breeding
stock upon the farm, that, If selected and
bought with discretion, and managed with
fair care, will quite surely bring both plea
sure and profit.
Many men hesitate TO buy, under the
mistaken notion that, to care for thorough
breds properly, will require them to keep
professional herdsman, who is expected
to be about the cattle barn pretty much all
the time, at all seasons of the year. No
mistake could be greater than this. so far
as 1t applies to the farmer who proposes
only to keen herd of moderate pretension
a collection of moderate size as well as one
thSt has cost only moderate sum. Good
healthy thoroughbreds, of any breed, are
as capable Of taking care Of themselves as
are any other description of stock what
ever. Good farm keep Is sufficient for
high-bred stock, kept for breeding purpos-
es, and is sufficient for the tax upon the
bodily powers through the demands of
maternity, and sucking the young. Good
farm keep, of course, means system of
feeding equal to that given to the dairy
COW expected to make profitable yield at
all seasons when in mllk. The thorough
bred COW, kept at breeding, needs nothing
more; good pasture during the season for
this, and such rations during the winter as
