The COlugO.

In the forests of the islands consti-
tuting the Indian archipelago is found
a curious flying animal which forms
the connecting link between the lemur
and the bat. The natives call it the
colugo, and also the "hying fox, but it
looks more like a nying-monkey, as the
lemurs are the cousins Of the monkeys.
Like the bats, these animals sleep in
the daytime, head downward but as
evening comes on, they sally forth,
often doing great harm to the fruit on
the neighboring plantations. In some
parts Of Java they are so numerous
that it is found necessary to protect
the fruit-trees with huge nets. The
extent of their flights through the air
is sometimes astonishing. They some
times drop to the ground and hop
along with a shuf1ling kind of leap, but
if they are alarmed, they spring to the
nearest tree and in a moment reach it's
top by a series Of bounds. Out upon
tn: branches they dart, and with rush
are off into space. Sailing through the
air like some great bird, down they 60
obliquely, swift as an arrow, hun
dred and fifty feet or more, rising
again in graceful curve and alighting
safely on a distant tree. In these
great leaps they carry their young,
which cling to them, or sometimes fol-
low them in their headlong flights, ut
tering hoarse and piercing cries. The
colugos lives almost exclusively on
fruit, preferring plantains and the
young and tender leaves of the cocoa
palm, though some writers aver that
they have seen them dart into the air
and actually catch birds. The flying
lemurs are perfectly harmless, and so
gentle as to be easily tanned. They
have lovely dark eyes and very intelli-
gent and knowing faces.-St. Nicholas.

Household Hints.

Salt fish are quickest and best fresh
cned by soaking in sour milk.
Cold rain water and soap will re-
move machine grease from washable
fabrics.
In cooking a fowl, to ascertain when
it is done, put a Skewer into the breast,
and if the breast is tender the fowl is
done.
To prevent the hair from falling out
try first wetting the head at night with
salt and water. Have the salt dissolved
in the water, so that it will not annoy
you by PARTICLES sticking to your hair.
Mild sage tea is also excellent.
Pretty wall baskets can be made by
taking one of the rough straw hats so
much worn at the seaside a year or
two ago. If flower or vine is not al
already embroidered on it, add some
such decoration; then line the hat with
muslin or sileSia, finish the edge with
n pleating of ribbon, and tie n ribbon
in Il knot anu faSten to it for n handle.
The hat may be tlattened by pressure,
or by using stout linen thread for that
purpose.

Root Crops.

All root crops really require garden
culture. In the cultivation of mangel
wurZel SOW the seed about the time
you usually plant corn, in rows two
and half feet apart, drilling in four
or five pounds of seed per acre. Thin
out the plants from nine to twelve
inches apart in the row. Cultivate fire.
quently and keep down the weeds; and
this is all that is necessary to secure a
crop. 1t should be understood, how
ever, that if you wish to grow from
1000 to 1900 bushels of mangel wurzel
per acre you must make the land very
rich. Many farmers prefer to grow a
moderate crop of from 600 to 500 bush
els per acre, with the use of only a
slight dressing of manure. There are
well authenticated instances where
5000 bushels of mangel wurzel have
been grown per acre, but in such cases
it is necessary to make the soil as rich
as a hot-bed.--Amelican Cultirator.

An Experiment with Potatoes.

A Canadian agriculturiSt, says a
Canada exchange, last season tried an
experiment with potatoes that is worth
noting. 1t was done by scooping out
every eye from potato and inserting
in the flesh of it single eye carefully
cut from another potato of a different
kind and planting the seed thus
prepared, obtaining thereby very curl
Gus crosses, which he exhibited at the
Toronto industrial exhibition. The
tubers were small the first year, but by
no means as small as the first years
product from seed, and appear to par
take of the characteristics of both the
original varieties; whether they will
reproduce themselves the second year.
or revert to one or another of the orig
inal types is yet TO be determined.

FOR THE FARM AND HOME,
Flowing an Orchard.

It will benefit an orchard to plow the
ground, but it should be plowed very
lightly, to avoid breaking the roots.
Pruning the trees is necessary for the
production of good fruit, but with all
the care possible in this way there will
be no good fruit unless the codling
moths are destroyed in some way. One
way is to pick up all the fallen apples
and feed them or burn them. Another
is to set light-traps in the orchard at
nights, or to have fires or smudge
heaps among the trees; but in some
way these insects must be destroyed or
there will be no good fruit, 1t is Il
good plan to keep fowls in the orchard
and leave the ground under the trees
loose for them to scratch in and hunt
these worms.

The apostle John did not believe in
divorces for religions sake. When he
baptized Chrysippa, the wife of the
governor of Patmos (says Prochorus),
she would have forsaken her unbeliev-
ing husband at once; but the aged
apostle told her it must not be. He
had commission, he said, to join her
to Christ, but none to separate her
from her husband, and he commanded
her to return to her house again.

Soaking Seeds.

I am often asked whether it does
it does any good to soak seeds before
sowing them. In general believe it
does more harm than good and if done
at all good deal of judgment should
be used to prevent mischief. Thus
peas, beans and corn are often soaked
to hasten termination, with the belief
that they will come day or two earli-
er, but il case the weather is cold and
wet for some time after sowing the
seed, it will be more likely to suffer in
jury from the weather, than if soWn
dry. Especially is this true Of the
Mclean pea and other delicate green
peas, and of the various kinds Of sweet
corn. When the weather is dry and
hot, however, it may be an advantage
to steep the seeds before using them,
and especially so in the case of seeds
that are slow to gcrminate, such us
celery and parsnipG and carrots. To
steep these seeds for a few days
until termination has started and then
dry them just enough to make them
pass readily through the seed drill WI
hasten thcil coming up, so that weed
ing will be less difficult in case the
land is foul: but such seed should not
be sown upon foul land if it can be
avoided. Care is required in stepping
seeds that fermentation does not oc-
cur, which viii frequently kill the
seed. 1t may be arrested by turning
off the water and spreading out the
seed thinly upon piece of sheeting
and partially drying it. To steep
seeds in chemical solutions with the
belief that this will answer IN place Of

Corn or Oats for Horses.

The comparative value Of corn and
oats for horses may be briefly stated as
follows: The former is deficient in
many of the elements of nutrition so
necessary for recuperating the constant
wear and tear which necessarily takes
plaeA'ih the body of a living ca:iillal.
On this account, horses which are eX-
clusively fed on corn or hay do not re-
ceive that kind of nOuriShment which
appears necessary for the due support
and maintenance Of the animal fabric;
hence we must not be surprised that
corn-fed horses show evidence of being
languid, by sweating profusely while
being worked, lack of vitality, etc.
Oats, on the contrary, contain more Of
the essential elements of nutrition than
any other article of food which can be
fed with impunity to horses. Oats are
not only the most natural food for
horses, but are decidedly the most nu
tritious. They are the cheapest, be-
cause there is less risk in feeding
them, and experience has proved that
horses properly fed on oats and timo-
thy hay can, with regular exercise,
good grooming, and proper sanitary
regulations, be brought to the highest
state of physical culture, and can per-
form more work with less evidence of
fatigue than when fed on any other
article of food.

fertilizing the lani, I believe is sheer
humbug and imposition upon common
sense. The only chemical stuffs that
have proved useful, so far as 1 know,
are the blue vitriol to destroy germs
of smut, strychnine to destroy crows
and blackbirds, and smearing of tar
on corn seed for protection from these
birds.-W. d. PhHbrick.
