The Niagara Falls Park,

Among the good works authorized by the last legislature of New York Is the formation of park at Niagara Falls, by which all the grounds and waters necessary for the preservation and public access to those great won ders of nature are secured to the peo- pie in perpetuity. The sum of one and a half million dollars has been ap- propriated by the State to secure the purchase of private property. Lands. equal to little more than one hun dred acres have been bought. The grounds and buildings on both sides of River and Canal Sts. west and south of the hydraulic canal have been talk en by the Park Commissioners. The lines extend to the main channel of the river, and middle of the Horse Shoe Falls, being the boundary line between Canada and the United States. and the purchase takes in Goat Island and all the little islets, with their various mills, streets, and pas sage ways. By the terms of the act the
 whole tract is to be restored as far as possible to its original state of nature, and when this is accomplished, the trees grown. and all the improvements perfected, the attractions of Niagara will be increased thousnd fold.-Sct- entiHc American.

Fertility and TIlIaRe.

The stock of poultry manure, though probably small, has great value as fer tilizer for all sorts of vegetables, and it's frequent removal greatly helps to keep the fowls in health. It ferments rapidly in warm weather, and should be cleanly taken up at least once a week, but better twice, and put in the garden around melon or cucumber hills where it will do the most good by being hood lightly into the soil. If one wants to know how much pota- toes are benefited by cultivation, let him choose two or three rows and hoe them, or rake the soil every morning while the breakfast is preparing, and note the result. If he wishes to try another experiment let him rake up the droppings of the poultry-house every morning and put them into the soil about few hills of potatoes, and he will discover what frequent fertili- zing will do. Moreover, if he will put all the labor and fertilizers upon one square rod. or one acre, which he is used to expend upon four times as much space, he will learn how great yields are produced, and find his views upon the subject considerably enlarged.

FOR THE FARM AND HOME.
womnInR Calves.

A correspondent of the National Stockmon, upon the question of feed ing calves, remarks: "I prefer wean- ing when two weeks old, while some think 1t best to wean at the early age of one day, By the time the calf is two weeks old 1t has commenced to thrive, has put on some flesh, and is very much more able to stand the strain on Its young system. have had the best success learning them to drink by not giving them anything the first regular time of feeding. By the second their appetites are sharpened and their thirst increased, so that they will drink out of the bucket without giving them the finger. It is bad habit to learn them to drink by placing the finger in the mouth, and always gives the one trou- ble who practices 1t. The calf should be penned in a statle where the COW can neither see nor hear 1t. Then 1t will soon become resigned in it's new quarters and thrive from the very start" .-

Cooked Beans for Hogs.

It is difficult to get any kind of ani- nal excepting sheep to eat raw beans. A hen will pick one up and grayely drop it on discovering what 1t Is. Yet beans are very valuable food, and where sleep are not kept some care should be taken to utilize those that are cracked or colored. One of the best means for doing this is to grind the beans and mix the meal in gradu- ally, increasing proportions with that of other grain for growing pigs. It is excellent to feed with cornmeal, the large amount of albuminoids in the beans supplementing this deficiency in the corn. Beans are not reckoned good feed for breeding ewes, as the straining of bowels from the wind they generate sometimes does injury. It would be we'll, therefore, to with hold bean meal from sows with pig, or give 1t in small quantities and note the result carefully.

ChanRlnR Seed.

Changing seed" has long been practiced by farmers, and with excel lent results, it often being attended with largely increased crop. All farmers are acquainted with the fact that if some kinds of seed are not changed the crop will soon run out. This fact is true of grains, but applies to larger extent to garden vege- tables. For instance, the onion seed of Connecticut is imported from Tri- poll, and grows we'll there for one or two crops, but if the cultivation is long continued from the original seed the onions soon are only of the size of acorns. Again, potatoes grow well in Louisiana and as far south as the Bermudas if the seed Is taken there from a cool climate each year. Heavy oats taken from the cool, moist eli mates of Canada and northern Europe and grown in the Northern or Middle United States will produce a better yield the first year than if grown on their native soil.
 One reason, and the principal one, for these facts is that every plant has a native region which is limited in ex- tent, and that when an attempt Is made to grow it out of that range it soon deteriorates and requires to be renewed from seed grown in its native range. This is particularly true of Sea Island cotton, seed of which has been planted in every cot- ton growing soil in the world, but which rapidly degenerates, and can only be grown away from its native region by the constant use of fresh seed. These peculiarltles of varieties of plants have brought the business of growing seed to so large proportions.
 Another reason why the change of seed Is often beneficial to the farmer is that the diseases which afflict our crops and the insects which prey upon them prefer some varieties to others, and the diseases or insects will become more abundant in the localities where the varieties they prefer are most cultivated. If, then, new variety be introduced, one which is no better in any way than the other only in so far as 1t Is less subject to the ravages of insects, there is advantage to be de- rived from the change.-Corn MiILer.

Household Hints.

Never allow fresh meat to remain in paper; it absorbs the juices.
 A little borax put in the water in which scarlet napkins and red d-bordered towels are to be washed will prevent them fading.
 The cheapest furniture polish is a mixture of linseed oil and turpentine, laid on thin coat rubbed off with a soft cloth and polished.
 The rage for old furniture is increas- ing, and there should be in every fam fly desk, table or chair, originally possessed by the great-grandparents.
 Mirrors should never be hung where the sun shines directly upon them, or they will soon become rough, misty, or granulated, and no longer give back a correct likeness. The amalgam, or union of tin-foil and mercury, which is always spread on the glass to make a mirror, will be speedily ruined by direct and continued exposure to the sun.
 Young housekeepers who are wor- ried when they wish to wash feather bed tick will find that the best plan is (if they have no old tick to empty the feathers into) to sew together two sheets, leaving half of one end open and ripping the half of the tick to match it. Sew both holes together, thus emptying out the tick without spreading the feathers.

cuttIna ana Curing Clover.


 Good well-cured clover is good feed; especially for sheep; but when black and dusty 1t is hardly fit to place be- fore stock. Under ordinary circum- stances, 1t can be had sweet, clean, and bright, as we'll as otherwise. If the mower is started in the morning, run it until noon or later, and rake and put up the clover in cocks before you quit the field at night. It will cure almost as much there during the night, by heating, as in the daytime, and it will leave the blossoms and leaves all intact; exposure to hot sun causes them to fall off, leaving only the bare stalk to go to the stack or now. Ear ly in the morning, when the dew is off, turn out the cocks, shake up the clover once or more before dinner, and immediately after it will be ready for the barn. Some prefer to now late in the afternoon, letting the clover lie in the swath over night, to be stirred, raked, and hauled in the following day. But if heavy dew or rain falls du- ring the night, the hay will be black and stock will eat it less eagerly. Caps of cotton cloth can be used to good ad- vantage to cover the clover when in cocks. Near the cities clover is often sold in small bundles to be fed to city horses as a kind of "desert" or altera- tive. It can be made highly profitable to any one conveniently situated Independent.

Powers of the Cocn Lenf.

The coca leaf of South America has the power to appease hunger and thirst, and Is therefore largely used by the natives of Peru in their mountain travels. A physician suggests that this property of coca is due to its an Rsthetic effect upon the nerves of the mouth, throat and stomach, which nerves are drugged,' lulled or put to sleep by the influence of coca. Thus, coca is not a substitute for food, does not supply nourishment, and those ad- dicted to it's use become emaciated, narcotized and generally broken down in health. Men sometimes remark if they have got to go without a meal or, tobacco they would prefer the "chaw" of tobacco. This also, probably has something of the same power as coooa to obtund the sense of hunger, and its effects in the long run are equally disastrous. .-HeGIth Monthlv.

The Farmers Bath.

The luxury of bath room, says an exchange, can be afforded by only the comparative few who live in furnace or steam-heated dwellings. Bathing in cold rooms is always dangerous; and yet the farmers, mechanics and many others who are able to have few luxu- ries, can afford least of all to do with out the comfort and refreshment of frequent bathing after toilsome days works. The first means of resting is to make ones self clean. If more farmers realized this, not so many of them would leave the harvest field or the treshing machine covered with the sweat and dust of the day, eat hearty supper and go to bed as soon as chores are done, sleeping in the same soiled undergarments they have worn all day. They always get up tired. WhyP Resting consists of two pro- cesses-throwing off the effete matter of the body and assimilating a new supply of fresh material from the blood. Now when the farmer, or any
 body else, goes to bed with the soiled underclothes of the day, with his skin covered with thin coating of dust and precipitation. the system can't get rid of it's effete matter, because the the pores are clogged up; while the absorbents of the skin actually con- vey back into the system the poi sonous matter once thrown off, but which has been allowed to stay on the skin and clothes. It should ae

Bruin Rugged Q Busy Saw.

"Talking about funny things" said a bearded man, ''the funniest thing ever heard of happened in my saw-mill out in Michigan. We used a heavy upright saw for saving heavy timber, One day not long ago the men had all gone to dinner leaving the saw, which ran by water power, going at full speed. While we were away a big black bear came into the mill and went nosing around. The saw caught his fur and twitched him little. Bruin didn't like this for a cent, so he turned around and fetched the saw a lick with his paw. Result: badly cut paw. A blow with the other paw followed and it was also cut. The bear was by this time aroused to perfect fury, and rushing at the saw caught it in his grasp and gave it tre- mendous hug. It was his last hug, and we lived on bear steaks for week. When we came up from dinner, there was half bear on each side of the saw, which was going ahead nicely as though it had never seen bear"

 ParSntp FritterS.-Take three or four good sized parsnips. Boil them until tender. Mash and season them with a little butter, pinch of salt and slight spinkling of pepper. Have ready a plate with some sifted flour on 1t. Drop a tablespoonful of the parsnip in the flour and roll 1t about until we'll coated and formed into a ball. When you have a sufficient num- Der ready drop them into boiling drip pings or lard, as you would a fritter; fry a delicate brown and serve hot. Do not put them in a covered dish, for that would steam them and deprive them of their crispness, which is one of their great charms,
