The best way to apply salt to paths,
TO destroy weeds, is as follows: Boil
the salt in water. one pound to one
gallon, and apply the mixture boiling
hot with a watering-pot that has a
spreading nose; this will keep weeds

Put one pound to the square yard the

First Aid to the Injured,

The Society for Instruction in First
Aid to the Injured was organized three
years ago in New York, General
George B. Mcclellan being the first
President.
The Society teaches what should be
done in emergencies when there is no
physician at hand; when we must our
selves either do something Instantly or
stand helplessly by and see a man suf-
fer the agony of a broken limb, or
suffocate, or bleed to death, simply be-
cause we do not know how to help
him. The Society's instruction is OF
the most practical character. 1t is
given by means of lectures, ac-
%companied by illustrations, a subject
being present at each lecture: the
pupils being furnished with the ''Hand-
book of First Aid to the Injured" pub
lished by the Society. More than ten
thousand lectures have been delivered
in New York City alone by we'll known
| physicians. acting under DR.. Henry B..
Sands as Medical Director. The Acad-
envy of Medicine and the New York
County Medical Society have Endorsed
the Society, and it has the approval
and support OF the medical profession
generally.
The Society's classes, most of which
are free, have been attended by ladies
and gentlemen, working men and wom-
en-, school teachers. policemen, tiremen.
employees of the N. Y. G. Il H. r. r. Il.
and Pennsylvania R. r., and others;
and First Aid instruction has been made
a part of the regular training Of the po-
lice of New York, Buffalo and Provi-
dence. Branches have been formed in
Brooklyn, Buffalo, the Hampton Nor
NAL College, Va, and lectures have
been delivered to large numbers in
Boston, Philadelphia, Jersey City and
elsewhere. The society is now organ
izing branches in all parts Of the coun-
try, particularly the great railroad,

Insecticides.

In recommending things to be used
on the farm, especially inthe treatment
of animals and in cases of q required
insectitude, we always endeavor to pre-
scribe and suggest those things that can
be the most easily obtained. 1t is use
less to recommend what cannot be got,
at least without a great deal of trouble
and at great expense. We do not for
get either that there may be cases in
which it would be difficult to obtain
some of the most simple things in COM
mon use. So we keep these difficulties
constantly in view and endeavor to pur-
sue q course which will enable our
readers to overcome them. We are al
ways glad when new uses of what is
found on almost any farm are
discovered. Recently we have no.
ticed that kerosene has been re-
commended as an insecticide. Now kerr
osene is something that is either in the
home or a be readily obtained; and if
it is really valuable in the direction in
dictated it is both cheap and convenient.
Whether or not it will do all that is
claimed for it can be ascertained by
anybody without much trouble. An *
change notices the experiments that
have been made with it, and recon-
mends a trial of the remedy. Experi-
ment carried on during the past sum
mer at the Michigan Agricultural Col
lege upon the use OF kerosene as an in
secticide resulted in marked success. A
good emulsion was found to be made
from a gallon Of water and a quart of
soft soap, brought to a boiling heat, and
the vessel containing them being re-
moved from the fire, a pint of kerosene
was thoroughly stirred in. This was
found to be a sure remedy for the
apple-tree bark louise, but for some or
most purposes it will be better diluted.
For most purposes, however, a better
emulsion was found to be made by mix
ing one part o: kerosene oil with five
parts OF milk, either sweet or sour.
This mixture was applied to many ten
der plants with no injury to twigs or
foliage. When used in the proportion
of one to three. many plants were in
jured. When even more dilute than one
part of oil to five of milk, the mixture
was sufficiently strong to dispatch most
insects. When only half that strength
it destroyed quickly all the apple-tree
lice. The proportion of n to five,
however, was found to be always safe
and expeditions. 1t killed the striped
cucumber beetles. squash bug, grape
tleas, and many kinds OF larvae. 1t is
readily applied with a fountain pump
or syringe. Professor Forbes, OF illinois,
has used kerosene with success in de-
s.roying chinch bugs.-Hestern Rural.

CURE OF RHEUMATISM.
No. As FULTON MARKET,

4Vo. fb EOLlON MahNE
NEW YORK CITY, Jan. 81, 1884.
I have been a martyr to Inflammatory
Rheumatism for thirty years. I am a pro-
vision dealer in Fulton Market, and the
dampness of the place caused my trouble.
Standing on the stones, my feet used to
swell up almost as big as cushions, then
the rheumatism would affect my shoulders
and arms Ihave tried almost everything,
but without avail, until I began using
BRANDRETH's PILLS. The most 1 ever took
was six pills at a dose, and soon as the
medicine operated, the pain would begin
to pass off. I then took two pills every
night for a week, and would be entirely
cured for some months, until I had smother
attack; then the same treatment always
cured me. BRANDRETH's PILLS never have
failed me once. I have been using them
for upwards of thirty years. Idaily recon-
mend them, and I lately cured my clerk Of
rheumatism; he took the pills the same as
l did. I am now p years old, strong and
vigorous. and I am sure .BRANDRETH's
PILLS are the cause. Anybody afflicted
with rheumatism can come to me, and if
they will take BRANDRErH's PILLS, I will
surely cure them. G. w. DYER.
No. 3 FULTON MARKET,
NEW YORK CITY, JAM 6, 1884.
I AVE been using BRANDRETH'S PILLS
for the last 10 years. They are a wonder.
full medicine. There is nothing equal to
them as Blood Purifiers and Liver Reg
ulators. But 1 wish to state how remark
ably they cure rheumatism, and how
easily: I was affected by Rheumatism Of
the legs. My business (wholesale fish
dealer) naturally leads me to damp places.
I was so bad I could not walk, and at
night I suffered fearfully; I tried Bal
sans, S~arsaparillas, and all kinds of
tinctures, but they did me no good, and I
was afraid of being a cripple. I finally
commenced using B~RANDRETH's PILLS. 1
took two every night for ten nights, then
I began to improves; I continued taking
them for 40 days, and I got entirely we'll.
Now, when ever sick, I take B~RANDRETH's
PILLa. They never fail.
