Peter COOper,s Liberality.

During the winters of 1S74-5, 1886,
and 1867, the sufferings of the poor
in New York from privation, cold and
want of employment were unprece-
dented in the history of the metropolis.
Every day during these long winters,
from 3 o'clock in the afternoon until
$3.50, Mr.. Peter Cooper sat in his office
OF library on Lexington avenue, and
no one, however shabby in dress, was
refused admission. On the table be-
fore him were piled hundreds of newly
coined half-dOllars and piles of one
dollar greenbacks, and these piles were
replenished every hour by the servant
in attendance. His rule was to give
every applicant half a dollar in any
event, and if the case seemed to be
specially urgent one the douceur was
doubled, with request either to write
history of the case, have il authenti-
Gated by some clergyman or other au-
thority, and send it in for further con-
sideration. AS early as 2:30 o'clock
in the afternoon crowds of poverty
stricken people 49, Ilen and women
of every nationality and position
in life-might been seen gathered in
front of the Lexington avenue resi-
dence, and the amount expended often
amounted to 5000 in a single day, ire
spectiye of the special cases that were
more carefully inquired into, and in
which special aid was given. Most of
the applicants were strangers, and
many, of course, were downright
frauds. But the old man proceeded
upon the principle that it is better to
be deceived by many than to deny one
deserving sufferer. He could afford,
he used to say, to give half dollar to
anybody who asked for it, irrespective
of the merits of the applicant, and
time did not permit him to inquire too
minutely into the circumstances. His
heaviest week during any season ag-
gregated $500; it was considerable
money to spend on mendicants; but.as
the old man said, the ministers would
take care of those who belonged to
their denominations, and some one
must take care of those who were
neither Episcopalians nor Methodists,
Presbyterians nor Catholics. 1t was
those who had no religious affiliations
who were most liable to suffer without
any resource or remedy; and it was for
this class that he kept up his distribu-
tiOn of half dollars.

Fertility Increased by Rotation.

When the farm annually yields to
its full capacity there is extracted
from the soil those elements that prin-
cipally constitute its riches or fertility.
and unless the soil is ted with matter
containing those elements of fertility
it will in the course of time fail to re-
pay for the labor and capital required
in its cultivation. Most farmers are
aware of that fact and use barn-yard
manure and commercial fertilizers in
order to supply the deficiency. We
have within our power, however, the
means by which the soil can be recup-
Grated and restored to fertility, and
every prudent farmer takes advantage
of such opportunities in order to
bring his farm to the highest degree
of produetiveness. The practice of a
rotation of crops is essential to good
farming, and it is by such system that
the most fertile sections have been
kept to their standard condition.
How rotation accomplisbes so de-
sirable a result is not hard matter to
solve, for plants, like animals, differ in
their methods of growth and feeding
capacities. When a field is occupied
by clover, the crop, when plowed
under or fed to stock on the farm and
again returned in the shape Of manure,
adds additional matter to the soil
When fed to animals. only a portion
returns, but when the whole crop goes
under, the equantity is very large. But,
as crop Of clover is sometimes too
valuable for the plow, we still have
the advantage of knowing that the
sods and roots are very enriching.
Clover is lime and potash Plant, re-
quiring but little applied nitrogen to
make its growth; and yet, by shading
the soil, and through its power of
utilizing the nitrogenous materials of
the soil and atmosphere, it returns
more nitrogen to the soil than those
crops that depend largely on that sub
stance Nor does it take from the soil
a disproportionate quantity Of phos-
phoric acid, which is another advan-
tage in its favor. AS clover
takes from the soil lime and pot
ash principally, it leaves the ground,
when removed, in good condition for
some crop that prefers nitrogen and
phosphoric acid. Experience has
taught farmers that wheat or corn is
capable Of filing place in the rota-
tion, and such system is general on
well cultivated farms, wheat, clover
and corn following in successive
order.
In some sections the practice is a
hoed crop, that is, in addition to the
use of the cultiyatOr, the hoe is passed
through the cornfeld, which more

Chronic DySDeDSia.

The atrophy-wasting-which char
acterizes declining vital power shows
itself in the whole digestive tr ct.
The mucous membrane that lines it
from the mouth downward is greatly
thinned and toughened. Many of the
glands, including those which secrete
digestive fluids, wholly disappear,
while all are more or less wasted.
The consequence is slow and imperfect
digestion.
The aged, mainly from eating food
in quantity and quality such as they
had previously been accustomed to,
and sometimes through the influence
Of other chronic diseases, especially
bronchitis and hesrt-complaint, are
very liable to chronic dyspepsia, called
by physicians gastric catarrh
In this disease the mucous men,
brane of the stomach is unevenly
thickened and hardened. Minute
ulcers cover large parts of it. The
tubules, from which the gastric Juice
is poured, are often obstructed by fat
globules, resulting from fatty degenera-
tiOn. The natural motion (peristaltic) J
of the stomach and intestines is
| impeded.
Among the symptoms are a sense of
weight in the stomach after eating, or
constantly aversion to food, unless
highly seasoned /; thirst, especially for
acid drinks heartburn pain in the
stomach, diffused, or in a small spot,
but relieved by pressure dependency,
distrust of friends irritability; wake

The disease may be caused not only
by improper food, but by tobacco,
alcoholic drinks, too little exercise,
mental or manual labor after eating.

thoroughly eradicates weeds. It calls
for more labor on the corn, but saves
it on the weeds. The rotation is not,
however, complete without root crop
OF some kind, and this, Joined with the
hurdling of sheep, as is done in Eng
land, will bring an almost barren field
in the course of few years to fertile
condition. Our system of rotation is
too narrow and should take in other
crops that are profitable, in order that
the elements of plant-food should be
distributed as evenly as possible when
removed by crops.
Another advantage in rotation is
that all soils contain fertility to GER
tain degree. Even in the best of soils
there are dormant or insoluble sub
stances valuable in composition, and
when they are not being appropriated
by an occupying crop are gradually
being reduced and rendered soluble as
plant-food for the succeeding crop, and
thus rotation not only prevents the loss
of particular substances in excess but
converts the locked-up elements of the
soil into free and assimilable matter.
In this country no system of rotation
is complete without clover; in Eng
land it must contain the cultivation of
root crops and sheep pasturage. That
we may learn valuable lesson by COM
bining both practices it becomes the
duty of every farmer to make expert
ments, even if only on small locations.
