An English workingman, just
past the middle age, found that
his pipe, which for many years had
been a great comfort to him, was
beginning to seriously affect his
nerves. Before giving it up, how
ever, he determined to find out if
there was no way by which he
might continue to smoke without
feeling its effects to an injurious
extent. He accordingly wrote to a
medical journal, and was recon-
mendsI to fiji the bowl of the pipe
sne-third full Of takle-salt, AID
press the tobacco hard down upon
it, as in ordinary smoking. The
result was very satisfactory. Dur
ing the process Of smoking the salt
solidifies, while remaining porous,
and when the hardened lump is re-
moved at the end Of the days
smoking, it is found to have alb
sorhed so much of the oil of tobac-
90 as to be deeply colored. The
halt should be renewed daily.

Generally all this is readily allowed it is
seldom, however, that it is properly and
in the right spirit acted upon. In this
inaction is implied incapacity, which is
the most melancholy feature of the situ-
alton. The chief hope of the future, as
to all this, is the fact that there is a
growing belief that the highest order of
mind and business ability can find ample
scope for the exercise of its greatest pow
ers in the study of agriculture. In all
the more highly civilized countries of
Europe can be seen the practical demon
stration of these ideas, and the necessi-
ties of competition will force the Ameri.

Practically the real point to be looked
to in setting out cabbage and other
plants is to get the soil In good, moist,
mellow condition. This can be done by
thoroughly working the soil until it is
reduced to the finest filth.
Setting out plants during o rain is de-
sirable, inaemuch as the evaporation is
moderate. Setting them out before q
rain is still better. Cloudy weather,
with the atmosphere full of moisture, is
equally advantageous. In regard to pre-
serving the roots or stripping them off,
it is better TO preserve the roots, pro-
vided they are not allowed to dry and
shriveI up by exposure to the air. III

How Grow Corn.

Repeated experiment has illustrated
the efficacy of careful selection of seed
corn, the necessity of generous broad
cast manuring on worn lands and the
advisability OF planting in drills and CIV
ing fat culture
Professor Sturtevant, after several
trials, has decided that the kernels from
one portion of the ear areas good as those
from another, and that there is certainly
no inferiority for the tip seed. He has
found no evidence favorable to the
breaking of the roots of corn in order to
influence the crop On the contrary. ex-
cessive root-pruning of corn during
growth has proven unfavorable in the
clay soil of the station.
AS regards distance of planting, it is
quite evident that distance must vary
with the variety grown and with the
rainfall und general climatic conditions
of the locality. AT the New York sta
ton trials with Waushakum corn indi-
Gated that three and one-half feet by
three and one half feet is the best dis
lance for that variety. The influence of
weeds in the growing crop of corn seems
productive of injury not only from their
use of food supply of the soil but from
the shading of the ground. Neao York.

SAILOR the throat.

In these days, when diseases Of the
throat are so universally prevalent, and
in so many cases fatal, we feel it our
duty to say word in behalf of most
efFcctuaf, if not positive, cure for sore
throat. For many years past, indeed
we may say during the whole of life of
more than forty years, we have been
subject to dry, hacking cough, which
is not only distressing to ourselves, but
10 our friends and those with whom we
are brought into business contact.
Last fall we were induced to try what
virtue there was in common salt. We
commenced By using it three times day
morning, noon and night. We dis
solved large teaspoonful of pure table
salt in about half small tumblerful of
water. With this we gargled the throat
thoroughly just before meal time. The
result has been that during the entire
winter we were not only free from
coughs and colds. but the dry, hacking
cough had entirely disappeared. Weat-
tribute these satisfactory results solely to
the use of salt gargle, and most cordial.
ly recommend trial of it to those who
are subject to disease of the throat.
Many persons who have not tried the salt
gargle have the impression that it is UNI
pleasant, but after few days use no
person who loves a nice, clean mouth
and first-rate sharpener of the appetite
will abandon it. The Household.
