Dir. HAMMoNp says that when you
poke tho end Of yonr finger ia your ear,
the roaring noise you hear Is the sound
OF the circulation in your finger, which
IS the fact, rs anyone con demonstrate
for himself by fret putting his Rngers
in bis ear and then stopping them with
other substance. Try II, and then think
what wonderful machine your body is,
that even the points of yoar fingers arc
such busy workshops that they roar like
n small niagara. The roaring Is prob
ably more than the noise Of the circula-
tion of the blood. Il is the voice Of all
The vital processes together the tear
ing down and building up processes
that arc always going forward in every
living body from conception down to
death.
| RYE FOR SoILISG. Rye ia ono al
the most valuable Of I'll crops for soil
ing. as it makes gooi grow,t, bel, rc
most grasses begin TO shoot. IL is not
always profitable crop when grown for
grain. but it's value is inestimable for
eatly pas,urage and soiling' There il
/ another use to which rye can be put to
/ advantage, which is TO allow il to mako
heavy growth and then pillow IL under
for carly potatoes. Used for this pur~
pose, II largely increases tho yield. es,
pecially fit is sprinkled with mixture
Of lime and ashes.
II is better TO set a treo In the fall!
than in The spring, says a correspondent
OF tho Country Gentleman. because then
the active circulation of the sap has
ceased, and the conditions OF soil and
atmosphere are favorable TO rest, or to
root growth rather than top growth.

TBAIsrSG Vicious HoRsEs.-A new
AMI very simple method 81 training vi
cions horses was exhibited atWest Phil.
adelphis recently, and the manner in
mhich some Of tho widest horses we're
subdued was astonishing. The first tri-
al was that OF a kicking or "bueking"
marc. which her owner said bad allowed
no rider on her back for period OF at
least Eve years. Shc became tame in
abou, rs many minutes. and allowed
herself 60 be ridden about without q
sign o. her former Witness. The means
by which the result was accomplished
was by piece OF rope, which was pass
ed around the front OF the Jaw OF the
mare just above the upper teeth, cross
ed in her mouth, and thence secured at
the back Of her neck. u is claimed
that 40 horse will jump or kick thus se-
cured, and that horse. after receiving
the treatment q few times, will aban-
don his vicious ways forever. A very
simple method was shown by which q
kicking horse coull BE- sbod. II con
sisted in connecting the animals heal
and tail by means Of Q rope fastened TO
the tail anil then TO the biz, aud then
drawn tightly enough 10 ipcline the
animals bead % one side, This, IL IL
claimed, makes IL absolutely impossible
for the horse TO kick on the side Of tho
rope At ,he came exhibition A horse
which, for many years, had TO be bound
on the ground to be shod. suffered the
blacksmith TO operate upon bin without
attempting to kick, while secured in tho
manner described.
