The Old.Time Doctor.

The old doctor who years ago was
such a great man in Arkansaw, has re-
tired from practice. His old saddle
bags hang on the quilting frames under
the shed, and his grandchildren peel
apples with his surgical instruments.
The bones of his old horse have been
used as fertilizer by some progressive
Yankee. There was a day, though,
when the old man now SO gray and
feeble, was strong-almost as strong as
the medicine he carried. His word
was law in numerous households.
Quinine and calomel were the only
medicines for which he had any re-
spect. When these medicines failed it
was thought time for the patient to call
on higher power for naturalization
papers in another hemisphere. The
lancet was great factor. Ii man
was slightly i'll, bleed him. If he was
dead, wait awhile. Bleeding was q
mania among the doctors. It ragged
like an epidemic. If man had too
much blood they would bleed him, and
they would bleed him if he didn't have
enough. If a man had his left arm
torn off the next thing was s'souce" a
knife in his r .ght arm. 1t did not seem
to enter the minds of these .'old
timers that man needed blood. With
them flesh might enter the kingdom of
Esculapius, but blood was excluded.
On one occasion a young doctor sug-
gested to several physicians with whom
he was holding consultation that it
would no doubt be better not to bleed the
patient any more. The old physicians
looked at the young fellow in amaze
ment, and one of them found breath to
exclaim:
"What?"
81 say that dom think that it would
be good idea to bleed him any more
at present"
The old physicians looked at each
other, and sorrowfully shook their
heads.
upon what do you base this wild
assertion, sir?'' s @-ss#
81 base it upon common sense. The
patient was suffering in the first place
from the loss of blood, then we bled
him, and now, say that it would be
better to wait until he is able to stand
another drain upon his system"
''He is hopelessly insane said one
of the doctors, meaning the young fell
low.
II don't know that his case is hope
less one of the party replied, ''but it
soon will be unless immediate action is
taken He needs bleeding" And they
seized him and cut hole in his scalp.
All of these old fellows have retired
from practice, with records red with
the blood of their eountrymen. They
have not become reconciled to the new
and less boisterous mode of practice,
and even now, if one of them should
sbe called upon, he would have his
knife in the patient in less than five
minutes. Philadelphia Cal.

A Scrap Of Physical PHILOSOPHY.

In March, when tie soil is saturated
with water and there are nights of
sharp frost, one often sees in mornings
the earth around a stone--or other
hard, dry object sunk in the ground
quite lifted up from it, with half an
inch OF more of gaping cavern-like
Facuity between. A boy-with the in
quisltlveness which is sometimes
troublesome, but always pardonable, as
the means of gaining his varied and
needful knowledge-asked lately how
the ground on each side of the stone
walk came to be raised up that way.
vi course the explanation was bv show
ing how Ice formed from water makes
larger bulk than the water, and that
the force of the expansion is so great as
to burst anything in which the water is
confined, as often happens to bottles,
round pots and even stones or the
largest rocks If there is assure into
which water can enter, and on freezing
has not room to expand.
The stones of the path are too solid to
include any water, but the earth on
each side is full of it, and the ex-
pansion of the water lifts and spreads
the earth. Hence we find the most
compact clay made quite open and loose
by the frost, and it remains so until
beaten down again by heavy rains or
trodden by animals feet. But roots in
such soil, especially if young andtender.
cannot stretch TO such an extent, and
are often broken of. as we find bv ex-
aiming the roots of the wheat plants
after freezing nights and thawing, wet
days. Tapering roots, as those of clover
aud of Seeding trees. are often lifted
quite out of the ground BY succession
of such expansions and heaying of the
crust; which, freezing fast to the collar
of the plant. raises it with it, tearing
apart the weak. slender rootlets. Well
drained soil rarely holds so much
water as to give the frost such power
for destructive mischis1.--M 7. zriA

The Church. Punkah,

A popularity of the churches in India
is the punkah, which is framework of
wood, covered with cloth and with a
deep white frill, Rows of these hang
from end to end of the church, sus.
pended from the ceiling, and are swung.
by ropes, which pass through holes in
the wall. and are pulled by natives lin
private houses there are relays of pun
kah coolies who relieve guard night
and day.. Why some simple machine
has never been devised to do this SIM
pie work is matter for wonder, but
some one suggests that no machine
would do it for sixpence day, which
is the wages of these men-certainlv
none would be so noiseless. And the
gentle Hindu has no objection to any
work that merely involves sitting still
and pulling rope. The effect of these
rows of great white frilled fans, chasing
one another irregularly up and down
the church, is positively bewildering.
Sometimes they seem to overtake those
IN front Of them, then they are Just left
behind. After a while, as YOU watch
them, the effect becomes soporific. To
the parson it must be exceedingly irk-
some to preach to an invisible congre-

1t is well understood that largd

at the present day is from wood. The

how do they obtain it? Every observer

not decayed, become loose and easily

Manuring in the Hill or Broadcast.


Where manure is scarce it may some
times be profitable to apply directly in
the bill or drill before planting or SOW
ing the seed, but taken as whole I do
not consider this advisable if it can be
helped. l fully tried the plan once,
and although the plants treated in this
way did very well, taking all things
into consideration, yet they fell far be-
hind those planted at the same time on
soil that had been well manfred by ap-
plying broadcast and then thoroughly
working into-
The main reason is this: The roots of
all plants extend considerable distance
in every direction from the plants. OF
course some may go deeper in the soil
than others, while those that do not
reach so far down into the soil are gem
orally those that send out the greater
part of their roots near the surface on
the sides of the main roots.
In manuring in the hill we usually
gauge the amount of manure to be ap-
piled by the size of the plant and the
drill. That is, we would reasonably
expect to use less in drill row laid out
to be sOwn to radishes, than in another
in which we proposed planting pota-
toes.
In either case the probabilities are
that after the plant had made any con-
siderable growth we were to make a
careful examination we should find that
the larger proportion of the fine, small
roots, that are, in fact, the ones that
furnish the greater proportion of the
nourishment to the plant, extend out
quite a distance beyond the drill or
manure.
While these feeding roots are spread.
ing out or growing through that part
of the soil where the manure has been
applied, much benefit is derived, but
once beyond it this benefit surely de-
creases, and that, too, at time when
in the majority of cases the extra stimu-
liant in shape of good plant food is
really more necessary to make the crop
profitable than in the early stages of its
growth.
do not mean by this that am not a
believer in doing all | can to give grow
ing plants a good. strong start; but that
after they have made a start this must
be kept up, and in my experience | be-
ieve this cannot be accomplished as
well by manuring in the hill as by a
liberal quantity scattered broadcast.
And yet with my experience am hard
1y prepared to say that with only linn
tied quantity of manure ii may not be
better to apply by drill than to thinly
scatter broadcast. Still with only
reasonable quantity, which in the ma
jority of cases would not be considered
a good application, would prefer
the latter plan, working into the soil in
as fine condition as possible. With
unleaehed wood ashes, poultry manure
or night soil, which are our strongest
natural fertilizers, I would under all
circumstances work broadcast into the
soil in preference to applying in the
hill.-COr. Prairie Farmer.

"A SAD, BAD GIRL.

Her locks we're touched with gold.

With rush and with swirll
Still she was-O, she IcdS
Such sad, bad girl!
For she wanted her own way,
And you couldn't turn or twist her;
