AWeIl Ksp. Lawn.


We have already suggested that the
use OF the lawn mower should not be
governed by any rule, such as '.mow
once week, Uut by the condition Of
the grass. In id-summer more in
jury may re, ,ult from moving TO fire.
quently than from cutting loo seldom.
We woull now call attention to the
weeds in ine lawn. Weeds here, As
elsewhere. are annual and perennial,
and they may be undesirable grasses
or other kinds OF plants. Take the
perennial weeds, for example; these
come from seeds brought on in manure
or taken there otherwise These are
cut back each time the mower is used,
and are hardly, if al all, noticed in the
spring month. In mid-summer, when
we NOW less frequently, TO give the
grass chance, these weeds which We
we have been unintentionally pruning
in the early months, are quite ready
to assert themselves. PIantains, Docks,
Thistles.a and others not before noticed,
will IN the short rest we give to the
grass. make themselves conspicuous.
The best treatment for such perennial
weeds. even on large lawn, is hand
wedding. A long knife or chisel-
shaped "spud" thrust well down to
cut.the root, will allow the plant to be
pulled up without disturbing the grass,
In England they have contrivance for
killing such plants, which places a few
drops of oil Of vitriol (sulphuric acid)
on the centre of each. We have not
had occasions to try this, but those
who make,the experiment should keep
in mind the destructive effect of the
acid upon the clothing, and the fact
that it should not come in contact
with the fingers, etc. Annual weeds
as general thing are of but little con-
sequence after the first year, as the
frequent moving subdues them. One OF
the worst of these is a. grass, the
"Crab-grass" (Punicum Sangainale).
1t appears late and It's PROSTATE stems
lie close to the ground, taking root at
every joint. This is also known as
Finger grass" and bears its flowers
and seeds in panicle that looks like
the frame Of an umbrella Whenever
the flowers of this appear the lawn
should be moved to prevent the ripen-
ing of seeds, and it will be safe tc
rake off the mowings, lest the imma-
ture seed ripens after the grass Is cut

The Diffaran.ca.

Al friend read to Mr.. VIM. M. Evarts
the statement of q newspaper that in re-
ply to the question, "What part of the
turkey will you hayep'' MIR. Evarts
answered that it was squite inconse-
quential to one Of his recognized abstem-
iousness and supersensitive stomachic
nervation whether he be rendered an in
finitesimal portion Of the Opaque nutri-
ment of the neither extremities, the SUI
perior fraction Of a pinion, or snowy
cleavage from the cardiac region Mr..
Evarts said that this was an attempt at
condensing one Of his dispatches pro-
testing against the ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of
Turkey. 1t was founded oman incident
which occurred at one of his Thanksgiv-
ing dinners at home. II had roasted
New England goose, well stuffed with
sage, with plenty Of apple-sauce and the
usual accompaniment. At the close Of
the meal / said: My children, you now
see the difference between the condition
of affairs before and after dinner. You
then saw a goose stuffed with sage; now
you zee sage stuffed with goose" /"

Dust, Busters and Wine,

Do not dust, but wipe!
Who would believe itp The duster--
that peaceful emblem of domestic toll
may, under certain circumstances, be-
come more dangerous to handle than q
six-shooter.
We are in dead earnest. An eminent
scientist declares it to be a fact.
DO you know just what you are doing
when you brush away dustp You dis
seminate in the air, and consequently
introduce into your own interior, into
your tissues and respiratory organs, all
sorts Of eggs, spores, epidemic germs
and murderous vibiones which dust con-
tains
One moment with feather duster
may be enough to poison both you and
your neighbors-to inoculate you all
with typhns, varioloid or cholera
strange as 1t may appear.
Instead Of a feather duster talxe q
cloth and wipe away the dust instead Of
stirring it up. In short. wipe never
dust!

EDITOR TEMEs:-Seeing an article in
your paper last week from Arnold
Parker, I was impressed with the
earnestness with which he appeals to
you to continue to enlighten the world
in regard to the means by which he
was miraculously cured of rheumatism
and hip. joint lameness by using Ken
dall's SPAWN cure. The article to
which he alludes by DR.. Bates, i'm
presses me so favorably with the real
merits of this remedy that ] tried it
also for several blemishes on my horses
and found it the most perfect cure !
ever tried for spavins and other blem-
ishes, as it completely removes the en-.
largement in every instance by con-
tinuing its use for several days after
the lameness had subsidized. The per-
feet success I have always had with
Kendalrs SPAWN Cure led me to use
it on my own person, and for all the
family with the very best results as a
family liniment. While several of the
cures made with it have been almost
miraculous, none have been more sat
isfactory than several cures which ]
made with it Of foot-rot and also sore
teats as we'll as warts on teats OF cows
l consider it sure cure for sore teats
or foot-root in either COWS or sheep
With the satisfaction this remedy has
always given in every instance, | can
not refrain asking with my friend
Parker that you continue to make
known to the world this, the grandest
discovery Of the nineteenth century
Yours truly,
James A. Campbell.

Q The following section of the stat
utes Of Ohio is Of much Importance in
some localities. An owner or tenant of
land contiguous to a railroad, where the
company fails to comply with the law,
may give notice of the fact, in writing,
to the Probate Judge, and such drain or
ditch may be constructed at the expense
of the road. The section is as follows:
SEC 8S42, Revised Statutes of Ohio,
reads as follows: "There shall be cop-
structed and kept open, along the road
bed Of every railroad, except where the
road extends through, or by. swamp land,
by the company or person operating the
road, bitches or drains of sufficient depth,
width and grade to conduct to some
proper outlet the water which accumu-
tates along the sides of such railroad-bed,
from the construction or operation of
such road"

What Has England Done for India !

The responsibility assumed by Englano
twenty-four years ago is one which was
laid upon the back of every elector in
this country. Yet nothing, absolutely
nothing, has been done to teach on,
electors-that is to say, our people-whal
is meant by our rule in India. Mr..
Pidgeon has stated part of the case adj
mirably. What, he asks, has England
done for this vast EmpireP She has
converted an immense amount of Jungle
land into fertile land, she has drained
malarious swamps, joined the interior 10
the seaboard by railways, spanned great
rivers, constructed canals, irrigated bar
rem lands, made native races live peace
ably, stopped the raids of Afghans, Per-
slams and Tartars, put down predatory
castles, substituted justice for oppression,
police for soldiers, schools for idolatorous
