LEMON JUICE IN MALARIA.-We have
already noticed the recommendation of
Dr.. Tommasi Crudelli of Rome in ref
erence to the use of lemon Juice in mall
aria. Before the last International
Medical Congress this professor gave
the following directions for preparing
the remedy. A lemon is cut up, peel
and all, into thin slices, which are then
put into three glassfuls OF water and
the whole boiled down to one glassful.
Ii is then strained through linen, squeez-
ing the remains of the boiled lemon,
and set aside for some hours to cool.
The whole amount of the liquid is then
taken fasting, DR.. Mascagni of Italy
has succeeded with this remedy in cur
ing an obstinate case of malaria in his
own person that had resisted quinine.
1t is well known that III Italy, Greece
and North Africa, they often use lemon
juice or a decoctlon of lemon seeds, as
a remedy IN malarial fevers of moderate
intensity; and in Gaudaloupe they use
for the same purpose a decOctiOn Of the
bark of the roots of the lemon tree.
All these popular practices tend To
show that the lemon tree produces a
febriluge substance, which resides In
Nil parts of the plant, but which would
seem to be most abundant in the fruit,
In fact, among the popular remedies
employed against malarial infection,
this is the most ~etlioacious, for it can
be employed with good effects in acute
feyers. But it is especially advantage
GUS in combating the chronic infection,
which is rebellious to the action of quiz
nine, aud in removing or moderatlnR
its %deplorable effects.

AT this time, when the flowers fade
soon, it is well to know that If a small
bit of the stem is cut off and the end

apt to turn yellow. For preserving

raising wheat he could not get the yield
higher than twenty-three bushels per
acre, although the land was rich enough
to raise lar Q crops of grass, corn and
potatoes. The wheat was top-dressed
with rotten manure but still the yield
was no greater. Then the two'horse

bought one, and used 1t freely 10 con-

AGRICULTURE.

SHoRr-HoRNs AND JFRsEYs,-Our OBJ
servation in this country is this-that
mon short-horn cattle there Is a
majority of excellent mixers, producing
milk OF fair richness, both in butter and
cheese. Their milk, after skimming,
makes good feed FOR the calves. The
Jerseys we had here to experiment with,
do not give as much milk in quantity as
the fairly bred Short-horus. though
richer in butter. But we find that after
we skim the Jersey milk, what is left is
OF no account, either for cheese or
calves feed. All we get from them Is
the butter. When we look to the beef
question, there is no comparison.
While the Short-hOrn steer commands
from S75 to 800 at three years old, the
Jersey steer is worth comparatively
nothing-at least he will bring no more
than it has cost to pasture him. Those
who persevere in breeding Short-horns
must. in the end, command the highest
success, as we call it "killIng two birds
with one stone" Besides, an equal
chance of produce IN the dairy, the
Shorthorn has an incontestible superior
ity in beef, which is now, not only in
America but all over the world, in great
demand. I receive a good many papers,
but like to get yours and compare notes.
Tor DRESSING WHEAT. Successful
farmers are aware of the important adj
vantage of top-dressing their wheat
fields with fine manure. either immedi-
ately before sowing, and after the last
blowing and preceding narrowing, or
else early in winter as soon as the
ground is frozen hard. For autumn
top-dressing, the manure is deposited
in heaps at convenient points on the
land, and then spread as each strip is
plowed, beginning at n side and going
to the other as the field Is finished.
This obv1ates the necessity of drawing
the manure over the whole plowed
field. Six or eight two-horse
loads OF manure thus applied have
often added ten or twelve bushels of
wheat to the acre, and been Of still
greater benefit by assisting in the germi-
nation and growth of the grass seed
sown with the wheat, and for the clover
sow the following spring. 1t has q
tendency to prevent the winter-kllling
of both wheat and young grass, and 1t
prevents the hard crust in spring, SO
detrimental to the success OF the clover
sowing.
