The Maine Fish Commissioners have
just finished the work of distributing
one million and four hundred thousand
salmon fry to the more suitable waters of
that State. The plan is to put the young
fish, whether from sea salmon or land
locked salmon eggs. into small streams
tributary to the lakes and ponds
apparently best adapted to the growth
of the salmon family. The fish are thus
enabled to exercise the instincts Of the
true salmon-that is, descend to the
larger body of water below, as the sea
salmon descends to the sea, and 60 up
the in-running streams to breed. The
e salmon thus become l~and-locked, as
it is termed; that is. they descend to a

The suspicion that the sudden death
of Midhat Pasha was not brought about
by natural causes has at length been
most Enthusiastically confirmed, and it
is now certain that Midhat Pasha and
his fellow-prisoners were starved to
death. According to the S~rassburge,
Zeitamg, which quotes a letter FROM one
of the exiles at TAFT. the following are
the details of the case ''Tahir Bey,"
says the writer, .'who wa one of the
Sultan's ~aids-de-camp. had been ordered
to convey to Osman Pasha notice of his
elevation to the dignity of Field Marshal.
At the same time he brought orders from
Constantinople to ill-treat the exiles at
TAFT, both in respect to food and all
other necessaries, in order that their
end might be more speedily brought
about With a view to carry out these
orders the Governor General sent Major
Bekir Efendi. q Circassian. direct from
Mecca to TAFT, where he at once dis
missed the cooks and deprived the inn
frisoned exifes of every comfort Bekir
even sent away the physician of Midhat
Pasha at the time when the latter was
suffering from q dangerous attack of
carbuncle. He also dismissed all the
servants of Mahmud. Nouri Pashs, and
Others. Then all saw starvation star
ing them in the lace. the badness and
insuf6ciency Of the food causing them
to despair of living long" In this let
ter the exiles take leave Of their friends
and express their sinister presenti-
ments, which hsve been only too fear
fully fulfilled

that the Mayor of Boston sent two pack

Causes OF Some Diseases OF Horses.

In an elaborate and apparently carefully
considered article upon scarlet fever in
horses, in the last number of the Journal
of Comparative Medicine and Surgery, DR..
John c. Peters says that there was, several
years ago, ga smart epidemic of so.called
pink-sye then prevailing also sprinkling
of virulent, foul-air influenza, some indica-
tions of foulair rheumatic fever, which 80
affected man and horse in 187l-73; sore
throat and strapgles were not rare, and
assesses about the neck and dropsy of
the legs were not uncommon. Some
things looked TO me marvelously like scar
let fever, or severe measles with dash Of
virulent sore-throat or perhaps diphtheria,
which to me is merely sore-throat taken
in specially foul air. l did not get much
satisfaction about equine scarlet fever,
but plenty of information about the So
called 'horse-ail,' or .distemper,' or
influenza or 'pink-eye, or accommodating
or seasoning fever, strangles, and what
not. Still, some very experienced horse
men called some things measles, and were
inclined to think they were not very far

Railroad Gardening.

At the recent meeting of the Maine Po-
biological Society, Mr.. John Burr, the
well.known landscape gardener, who has
had the general charge of the ornamental
planting along the line of the Maine Gen.
trail railroad for the past few years, read
brief paper on the general subject of
railway gardening. He sketched briefly
an account of the great extent to which
the identifying of railway entertainments
and station grounds were carried in Eu.
rope, and alluded to the planting by the
Pennsylvania railroad, in our own coun-
try, which employed as many as fifty
thousand plants in single season in
identifying its grounds. The Maine
Central is the only railroad in New En-.
gland that has given any attention to this
subject, which work was commenced in
1878. Fine lawns and ornamental plant.
ings have been made at many of the sta.
tions along the line, notably at Freeport,
Brunswick, Auburn, Crowley's, Cumber.
land, Wsterville, Leeds, Danville juno.
ton, Walnut Hill and Gray. In 1880
Maranocook grove, on that beautiful lake,
was laid out and improved. Generally
the plan has been to make a lawn, and
put into it beds of ornamental flowers,
shrubs and foliage plants. On the lower
route the work has been in charge of Mr..
George Nevins, and on the upper route in
charge of Mr.. George Wsgg. Work to
some extent was commenced on the Eu-
ropean division last season. Not only are
the flower gardens kept up in summer,
but in winter window gardens are kept.
The result of this ornamental planting
has not only been to give great pleasure
to the travellers on this line, but its infu.
ence upon the workmen and employees is
also manifest for good, The workmen
already begin to love the flowers, and to
look forward to their care with pleasure
1t is an example for cities and towns to
initiate, and village improvement societies
can unite with the road in carrying for
ward this work of improvement. Other
roads will, in time, initiate the example
and the country will become adorned and
beautified as the result

The Wealthy Apple in Maine.

"B." of Calais, VT, writes ain the

wick convention disparaged the Wealthy
apple. Why was it-because of the To-
cality 2" Every speaker at the winter
meeting of the Maine Pathological Society
at Brunswick who spoke at all of the
Wealthy, spoke of it as large, handsome
and productive, and better in quality than
the Baldwin. Mr.. Anterior of Hallowell
said he had seven trees and that was
enough for him, but this is easily under
stood when we remember that Hallowell is
a Kennebec county town (southern Maine),
where the Baldwin succeeds perfectly
Another speaker expressed the belief that
Wealthy trees would not be ng.lived, on
account of its early and profuse bearing
But we know that the Baldwin has the

A Vermont Pathological Society.

E. G. Hunt, Esq, Brooksville, VT,
writing to us on another subject, asks, Incl
dentally "Ought we not to have Yer
mont Horticultural Society / would like
very much to see movement in that direc-
ton" So should we, but when we have
staring us in the face the fact that we have
had not single answer to Mr.. Earle's
appeal for representation of Vermont
pomology at the New Orleans Exposition,
we have very little hope that our fruit
growers can be induced to unite for the
still more useful purpose suggested by
MIR. Hunt. Why there is 80 little public
spirit among the farmers of Vermont, we
do not know. Il may be we are too
selfish, or too lazy, or too ignorant to APP
preciate the value of an organization, or
perhaps poverty is part of the trouble. We
never have had any sort of agricultural
organization in this state but what has
been held up by the tail, as it were, by
two or three men, who did all the work.
1t is this narrow, cold selfishness, that
drives the more earnest, energetic and
warm.hearted of our New England people
out West, we do believe. Every western
state has live, active, efficient pomolog-
ical society.

Losses OF the Soil.

The exhaustion of the soil, due TO the
cultivation of various plants, may be seen
from the following data in regard to the
composition of those plants One hun
bred bushels of wheat contain forty.six
pounds phosphoric acid, thirty pounds
potash and one hundred and twenty-five
pounds nitrogen. Que hundred bushels
of corn contain thirty-three pounds phos-
phoric acid, twenty pounds potash and
ninety-six pounds nitrogen. One thou
sand pounds of tobacco contain seven
pounds phosphoric acid and fifty-four
pounds potash. The $50, 100000 bushels
of wheat produced in this country in 1880
contain 100000 tons phosphoric acid,
100000 tons of potash and 100000 tons
nitrogen, these quantities being ten times
as great as those contained in all the
manures used on all the crops in the United
States in that year. What must be the
result of this devastation of the soil ?
These valuable constituents must be re-
placed, or the soil will become unable to
sustain the repeated draughts upon it.

out Of the way of scarlet fever, or a hybrid
of the two diseases. l knew, and was
told again and again, that the disease or
distemper called by all these names and
others, breaks out among young or green
horses, and seems to rage in some stables
more than in others, especially in the
spring of the year, shortly after their in
PRODUCTION to city life, when the sales sta
bles are crowded with newcomers, caused,
perhaps, by the change from pure air to
one contaminated with putrid, ammoni-
acal, and other street, gutter and stable
gases. 1t is the general opinion that all
horses must have an attack of this sort
once in their lives therefore, as all know,
horse which has already had it is con-
sidered acclimated, and finds more ready
sale and higher price, Strangles, l was
told and knew, arises from similar causes
in young horses from colthood aud teeth
ing-time up to the eighth year, after which
it is rare. 1t is common in the coontry
among newly-weaned colts, which are
taken from their mothers and from rang
ing in the fresh air to be shut up in close
stables, or in dirty cow, farm or stable
yard, where they inhale q very impure
atmosphere, which initiates their throats,
eyes and noses." 1t is to filth that most
Of the diseases of domestic animals, espe.
cially of horses, are ascribed by Dr. Pc
ters. He mentions particularly the habit
of permitting bedding and manure to ac-
cumulste under the horse in the stall as
one pregnant with disease for the animal.
Fortunately this cause is very easily re-
moved or prevented; but what shall be
said of the ordinary-almost universal
habit of allowing the horse and other do
nestle animals to stand in stables which
are over ground which have for many years
been receiving the liquid, and, perhaps,
part of the solid manure from above, and
from which poisonous exhalations must
constantly arise to penetrate the rooms
above
