Just proffered novel plan for enab-

communicate with the main land.
He proposes to lay a cable from En-

and series of buoys, at intervals of
sixty leagues, each Numbered and
connected by wires with the cable on
the bottom, so that when a passing
ship desires to establish communica-

is connected with the wire of the
buoy and also with the buoy itself,
by means of its two wires. and the

What Do the Children Read.

The question what do our children
read is an important one to parents,
If indeed it is not so to the whole
community. The early impressions
of childhood are the ones most deeply
imbedded in the mind and heart. If
these impressions are good, it is like
ly, no we might say it is sure, to
bring good result in after life, while
ifbad, a consequent yield of bad fruit.
This is emphatically reading age,
and for this reason it is important
that the reading matter furnished be
of such character as to leave its i'm
press for good and not for evil. The
dime novel, the blood and murder
story, and kindred light literature
have done more to corrupt the NOR
ais and lower the standard of charac-
ter among the rising generation than
any other one cause, and the remark
able growth OF this kind of reading
and its rapid sale show the degener-
acy of the times. Sine, our people,
even from the quite young to the
more mature will read, it is of the
highest importance that the kind and
quality of their reading be looked
into. A bad book or paper will set
on fire whole neighborhood with
its pernicious influence, and the seeds
of decentralization thus sown, take
deep root and can only be plucked up
or destroyed with the greatest diff
Guilty. Let parents then look well to
the kind of literature their children
read. AS you would not like to see
them choose for their associates and
companions the profane and vile,
neither should you let them have the
vile and profane trash so much circu-
Ated nova days from which to fill
their minds with evil thoughts, de-
ceptive and delusive doctrines, and
bad principles, that viii Just as surely
bring them to ruin and disgrace as
the evil every day association with
bad men or women. While we are
caring for the outward dress and the
becoming appearance of our children,
let us not forget that cultivation of
the mind and heart, which will be of
more value to them than mere out
ward show in the after years of life.
Let us give them the best books and
magazines and papers to- read, from
which they may fill the storehouse of
their minds with beautiful thoughts,
true and enabling principles, and
qualify them to rank in life among
the noble and good. 1t is mistake
we make, which will in time give us
days and years of sorrow perhaps,
that we do not know, or even care to
know, what our children read. 1t is
important as to know what they eat
and drink and wear.

E. P. s., Trenton, New Jersey, writes that he
has seen a statement that cotton-seed meal
for poultry was a good substitute for meat, and
desires TO know if this is the fact, and where
the meal can be bought, and its price. Ans.
Chemical analysis proves that cotton seed meal
is exceedingly rich in both conforming and
fat-fOrming constituents, and actual expert
ment sustains the conclusion of the laboratory
The one defect to be overcome is tho fact
that this substance is too concentrated and
must, therefore, be fed in comparatively small
quantities and mixed with less concentrated
food. The meal alone is more nutritious than
either corn meal or wheat -four, and is actually
worth more as 8 stock food. But it must be fed
with greater caution. It is usually fed in mix
ture with coarse meal or ship-stuff, using about
one-thrd of the cotton meal The cotton meal
sells for about twenty dollars per ton, and is
now for sale by most feeddealers in our cities,
"What is meant by double grating pear
trees?"-A Young Farmer, Oboriin. Ans.: In
grating pears on ounce roots, to produce what
ara known as dwarf pears, it is found that some
varieties do not take we'll on tho ounce. Such
varieties ars therefore doublo-workcd; that is,
q good growing variety on the ounce, such as
the Duchess dc Argoulome is first grated on
the ounce, then after making ono years
growth the desired variety Is then grated on
the shoot; thus it if grated directly on n pear
shoot, which IS in turn grated on a ounce;
thus it is doublegraltcd.
Mrs. F., of Keokuk Iowa, is in trouble about
her lawn. She says that it was sown last
spring with iEwn-gr&ss secd and oats the oats
grew finely and were moved down before they
ripened. At that time the grass was not strong
but towards fall the lawn became quito green
and thick; but since cold weather it has be-
come brown and looks dead" and asks if lawn
grass is hardy. Ans: The initial error was in
sowing oats. That hag prevented tho lawn
grass seed from vegetGting; the nice autumn
grass was, doubtless, only summer grass,
usually called crab grass, which, being only an
annual dies out towards winter Wait until
spring, then have the surface deeply raked,
then SOW lawn-grass seed alone; and if you
wish crop Of oats SOW them elsewhere.
"I have saved seeds from several of tho best
varieties OF grapes in my yard such as the

them at once. If the seeds are kept dry until
spring, many of them would not vegetate before

KEEP THE LAND CROPPED.

Instead of letting land lie naked during
winter, plow, and SOW it with rye. This will
furnish good green manuring to be covered
under in spring, when the land is required for
cropping. The later crops need not bo planted
until the rye is beginning to head, thus afford
ing notable manure, of much moro value
than the ordinary applications of guano, DC.
The growth of rye protects the soil during
winter, and largely prevents injury from wash
ing. Orchards Of all kinds will oftentines be
vastly improved By taEAi2g in srsp sf xys In
