Treatment Of vine Cuttings.

cuttings: DO not take cuttings frem
irrigated vines; select varieties which
start well in this valley; see to it that
you do not get laterals; see to it that the
cuttings are not frosted; see to it that
they do not stand in the vineyard before
shipment; follow directions exactly, in
disinfecting; do not let them lie before
planting; reject every cutting that is not
perfectly strong and healthy; fertilize
the cuttings in a not too strong bath of
liquid manure; plant with spade in thor
oughly pulverized gravelloam soil, free
from cement, and il the air be fully ex-
cluded from the butt. you will get a good

The Latest Discovery in Printing

without setting line Of type. A com
pound has been discovered which may
b spread upon page without injuring
the paper in the slightest degree and
which refuses to rest on ink. 1t can be
easily removed to stone and there be-
comes the matrix for stereotype. or can
be used for printing from at once. Prac-
tical printers are experimenting to see
whether they cannot save the cost Of re-
setting old editions, and, If certain prae.
tical difficulties are removed, there will
be change, not only in the production
Of fac.similes Of old books, but in the
reproduction Of new ones. II will be
no longer necessary to keep type stand

Three Cholera Remedies.

I remember that in lS48 or 40 q for
get which), when the cholera was here.
we were all told to go about with q
flannel belt rouud our stomachs and
with bottle of chalk powder in our
pockets. 1t might be we'll if the L ocal
Government Board were to circulate
some plain instructions. 1. As to the
boiling of water, etc., and as to what it
is we'll to eat, drink and avoid. 2. As
to the remedies to be taken if there be
an attack.
A remedy, or rather preventive,
which at the time was much believed in,
was to take during the day, either
spread on bread and butter OF in some
other way, two spoonfuls of salt. This
salt acted as disinfectant, and it was
asserted that no one who took regular
ly his two spoonfuls caught the cholera.
/ am surprised to hear nothing now of
this salt specific.
Here is another cholera receipt: The
Rev. DR.. David Robinson, of New Jer-
sey, has charged the Lord Mayor to
give publicity to the fact that hot water
applied both externally and internally
will infallibly cure cholera. Any man,
says the. reverend gentleman, who is
attacked by cholera, must place his feet
in hot water and begin drinking the
same fluid as hot as possible. By the
time he has imbibed three quarts he
will be cured. A friend of mine who
had cholera several years ago, attri-
butes his cure to the fact of his having
consumed, directly as he was attacked,
several quarts Of hot tea.-London

His Circulation was Good.

Newspaper men are sensitive. Not

their ability to pay debt, but of their
circulation. You may say that he
dresses like tramp, and may thurst
insinuatious at that sensitive organ, the
nose, and smiling benignly he will for

smirchirg the circulation of his journal,
and all ties of friendship which may
have heretofore existed between you
are severed with the passionate swoop
of the knife, which so we'll knows war
in the extreme. There IS Colonel Har-
quies, for instance. He rather likes
personal abuse. and upon his private
life severe criticism has no more effect
than an autumn drizzle. falling on the
back of hard shell turtle; but you
must n ot hint that his paper does not
carry in its hip pocket a wad of great
influence. Several days ago the Colo
mel was taken violently ILL. He ragged in
the delirium of high fever, and his wife,
becoming alarmed, sent for two promi-
nent physicians. When the medical
gentlemen arrived the editor was almost
wild, wallowing in tragic daze. One
of the physicians approaching, took hold
of the Colonels arm, and, turning to
his companion said:

The Ingress Into the window.

Trinity steeple, which is 2s6 feet high,
is now being repointed. The term ere
pointing" as most of our readers are
aware, means filling up the chunks in
the masonry SO as to keep out rain and
even dampness. Trinity steeple is
beautiful piece of masonry, but safety
requires that it be kept in good con-
dition. The job is dizzy and dan ger
Gus one, but there are men here who will
assume any risk if they are only sufi-
GENTLY paid. The workmen probably
receive $40 day, and perhaps more.
1 we'll remember that, when the finish
ing touches were given to Trinity stee-
pie, q number of sailors were employed,
and, after the scaffolding had all been
removed, one of them crawled on the
outside from the bell-tower to the
highest window in the steeple, which
he entered in safety. This feat was
viewed by thousands, most of whom ex-
pected the poor fellow to fall, but he
clung to the protuberances with a
tenacious grip, and slowly made the as
cent and, when he entered the little
window, each one seemed to take q
long breath. This was done merely as
o voluntary display Of nerve and skill,
but when St. Pauls steeple was repair
ed few years ago man was paid 5000
to make the ascent, which he did in
safety.-New York Letter.

The Advantage IN Beating the Re,
cord -e
From the Philadelphia.L Ledger.

From the Philadelphia. Ledger.
To the spectator who is unprovided
with stop watch it cannot make much
difference whether horse trots mile
in 2:104 or 2:10, except in imagina-
tion and as matter of record. But it
is an undeniable fact that the quarter Of
second makes great difference to
very large number of people, to whom
the beating of the record means not only
an improvement in particular horses,
but an improvement and development
of horses generally. Only two OF three
horses in q generation may reach such
speed, but, in developing these hun
dreds and thousands of other horses are
bred and trained to do much better than
they otherwise would. We have reached
such point now that second, or B in
the latest case, o fraction of second is
all that can be obtained iu attempts to
lower the record. Jay Eye See had no
sooner beaten Moud S. s best time by,a
quarter of second than Maud IS. got
quarter of second lower still. The rec
ord, instead of being 2:1O1 as it was on
Thursday, or 2:10 as it was on Friday,
became on Saturday 2:094, and Maud
S. is still the chief of trotters. She was
deposed from that high rank for day
only.

The production of wheat, corn, beef
and pork by the farmers of this country
is vastly in excess of the home demand,
and the surplus Of these products for
the foreign market is steadily increas-
ing. At the same time the production
of manufactured commodities, of cot
ton and woolen goods, of iron, steel
and hardware, greatly exceeds the needs
of the consumers at home. The manu-
featuring capacity of the country is
sufficient to produce in eight or ten
months what its people consume in q
year. A proof of this is seen in the
temporary suspensions in nearly all
branches of manufacturing industry.
This glut in almost every product is
sufficiently obvious, but the remedy is
not so clear. Opening the ports of for
eign nations will afford relief, in the
opinion of our class, but, all admit that
this will not, cannot be done, unless
our own are free to foreign nations.
The problem is not likely to be solved
for some time.
