How TO MAKEA GOOD WHIrEWAsH.
The following is the recipe sent out by the
Lighthouse Board Of che Treasury Depart
ment, and has been found, BY experience
to answer on wood, brick and stone nearly
as we'll as oil paint, and is much cheaper ::
Slack one-half bushel unslacked lime with
boiling water, keeping it covered during
the process. Strain it and add peck of
salt, dissolved in warm water; three pounds
OF ground rice, put in boiling water, and
boiled to thin paste; one-half pound pow
dered Spanish whiting and pound of clear
glue dissolved in warm water. Mix them
well together, and let the mixture stand
for several days. Keep the wash thus pre-
pared in kettle or portable furnace, and,
when used put it on as hot as possible
with painters or whitewash brushes
Here is another recipe for whitewash for
outdoor use: Take clean water-tight bar
rel, and put into it one half bushel lime.-
Slack it by pouring boiling water over 1t,
and in sufficient quantity to cover five
inches deep, stirring it briskly till thor
oughly Stacked. When Stacking has been
effected, dissolve in water and add two
pounds sulphate zinc, and one Of common
salt. A beautiful cream color may be
communicated by adding three pounds yell
low ochre. This is much superior, both in
appearance and durability, to common
whitewash.

a Word for the English Sparrow.

It is possible that much of what is said
against the English sparrow is based more
upon prejudice than upon observation, and
it is only just to this greatly condemned
bird that when word is said in its favor
1t should have wide hearing. Such a
word is said by the Germantown Telegraph,
and results from close observation. The
writer of an article in that paper says that
the birds are daily before him upon his
premises, whereon he raises all kinds Of
fruits and vegetables. They have been
carefully observed, and their behavior has
been noted at all times and under all cir
cumstancss, the conclusion drawn being
that they are the most efficient and valua-
bic insectiyorous birds on the premises,
and though unless fed in the spring with
vegetable offal, they will eat the early
spinach and lettuce, and the first tender
leaves of fruit trees, they do not eat to an
extent to cause material damage. They
eat no fruit of any kind. When insects
appear in the spring, up to June or August,
they appear to be unreu,itting in feeding
upon them, and the pear crop on the prem
Uses in question has never been so free
from the attacks of its enemies generally
as since the sparrows have been there.
Though pugnacious among themselves,
they do not drive away other birds, as is
proved by the fact that on the premises in
question there are more robins than ever
and as many cat-birds and wrens Then
the sparrow can be used for food, as it
becomes very fat, and the writer from
whom we are quoting suggests that they
should be allowed to be- shot for food, as
their increase is so rapid that there would
always be an ample supply.-Boston

there is weakness in the loins, and the

in horses indicate moon blindness or some-
thing else. A bad tempered horse keeps
his ears thrown back. A kicking horse is
apt to have SCARED legs. A stumbling
horse has blemished knees. When the
skin is rough and harsh, and does not
move easily and smoothly to the touch, the
horse is q heavy eater, and his digestion
is bad. Never buy horse whose respira-

Rieht.Ha.dsdness.


Mr.. Chas. Reade wrote one or two let
ters some time ago to q London paper con-
demning the practice of nurses and moth
ers who discourage children from using
the left hand and thus render it compare
lively unserviceable. Nature, he main
tanned, has made no distinction between
the right and left extremities of the body;
and but for the existence of foolish
prejudice in favor of the right hand both
limbs might be rendered equally useful.
DR.. Gaetan Delaney has just commune
Gated an interesting paper to the Anthro-
biological society, in which he seeks to
establish that right-handednes is not an
acquired habit, but is natural attribute
characteristic of thesuperior races. Savage
tribes he states, and communities in an
inferior state of civilization show much
larger proportion OF left-handedness than
highly civilized people do. The Anna
mites, for instance are noted as left
handed people; and Negroes according to
Harting, are equally developed on both
sides of the body, the right and left ex-
tremities possessing exactly the same
power and weight. Idiots and epileptics,
again. offer a larger percentage of left
handed women than men. Infants, DR..
Delaney says. are left-handed at first Mr..
Reade adduced this fact in support of his
theory; as they grow older they become
both handed. and eventually right-handed.
In old age. however, there is marked
tendency to both handedness again. His
general conclusion is that in the evolution
of the species there has been a steady ten
dency to the development of the right
side of the body at the expense of the
other and that the examples Of left handed
ness still TO- be met with in the superior
races are "survivals' .

Review of the Local Grain, Produce and
Provision Markets

Review of the Local Grain, Produce and
Provision Markets
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 5,
The local merchandise markets were moder-
ntely active, to-day, and the fluctuations in val
nes few. Sugars are lec higher East; prices in
this market unchanged. The produce markets
we're quite active; prices steady at our quota
siOns. The New ork Shipping List says of the
business situation: II is worth while to keen in
mind the fact that small trade with certain
profits is always better than large trade in
volving great risks and uncertainties. This is a
good time TO grasp firmly what one can hold and
hold on until the inevitable turn in the pro-
iricted tide of depression. If business men will
have patience to do this, steering clear Of extra
ordinary risks and at the same time avoid
would seem to he no good reason why business
should not mend gradually, but yet substan-
italy, within reasonable time. With an abund-
ance OF natures products and an abundance of
money there is no for encouragement,
even though the situation be not as salts
factory as could be desired. A strong
point of the existing condition of things
j. that prices of staple productions, almost
WITHOUT exception are low, and that any change
~ likely TO be for the better The export trade,
though not very brisk, holds its own, and CON
7lnues III excess OF the import trade Tins is an
"ther strong point in the situation. NOtwith-
landing the large supplies of most of the great

with surprising rapidity, the visible supply of
wheat being altogether unprecedented, in spite
of the shortage of this years harvest. This
would seem to imply that there was an unusual
" large surplus left over from last season. The
situation IS regards cotton is similar TO that OF
wheat. The European markets are for the pres
ent literally supplied, and she visible supply IN
this country is increasing, even though the crop
is smaller than that of last year, though the lat
est reports indicate that the shortage is less than
has been generally estimated. The exports of
hog products are larger than last year, nOtwith-
standing the discrimination against them in i'm
portahG parts of continental Europe The coun-
try is In better condition. financially, to carry
Its surplus productions than ever before, and 1t
may be better that the export trade is not active
at the low prices current early in the season, be-
cause foreign consumers Will eventually have to
buy our surplus food and cotton and in ali prob
ability higher prices will be realized by the de-
lay.
