Il Il the improved method in agriculture
10 cultivate everything possible by horse
rather than by man labor. Either harrow
or cultivator, and both are used to an extent
that makes slouchy old-time farmer stare
Vegetables even may be largely tended with
the horse cultivstor. The beastly, back
breaking human labor incident to the cul-
turs Of large areas by hand is all wrong
Such labor stiffens aud Stunts the best
growth that there is in man, and degrades
him to level with the quadruped. 1t never
was meant that human beings should labor
in that way. Such work is for the OK and
the ass.
1t Is this monstrous back breaking labor
that makes farm life hateful to ambitious
boys. Above all things we ought to be ener-
getic and industrious But if the farmer
strains his back and stiffens his muscles
doing the work of an OK, he will at length
become stiff old OK He Will lose the hope
and ambition that are the best heritage of
man Don't do it,
Cultivate every thing you can by horse
and mule power. If you plant radishes,
onions and lettuce in double rows they may
be tended with the small cultivator. 30
may melons and cucumbers, till they make
long vines, and then they need no more
working. HORSE power sIIS bAe BTouhA
deeper and ventilates it better than man
power. Strawberries in narrow rows may
be worked with the fine-tooth cultivatOr.
Beets, turnips, carrots and parsnips may
be either planted in single drills or double
rows, and cheaply raised by horse power.
In the west, where farmers are energetic,
new things are learned more rapidly than in
the east. Among western farmers 1t is the
method to harrow corn almost altogether.
The process is no child play, either. A large
harrow ten or twelve feet wide is used. This
Is driven through the field, over corn rows
and sll, till the stalks are so large they be
gin TO break down under the harrow. If the
ground is cloddy, the roller is first used.
Only the horses feet are kept off the corn
rows. The harrow has a wide, slanting
tooth. Such harrow, it is said, win read
lily go over a twenty-fv acre field in one
day That is how farmers understand corn
tending out west. They could give the east
some lessons

with an abundance Of implements for all
purposes. Then he will take care of them.

Antique furniture is still very much sought

The Yankee Girrs Choice.

Z
Residing on the Clackamas river, in Clacka-
mas county, Oregon, is u good old Quaker
couple, whose pretty daughter, with her
"thees" and 'thous" and chaste style Of dress
ing. has been more thoroughly admired than
any one for miles around. The fame Of her
beauty was not confined to the immediate
neighborhOod of her fathers farm, but had
reached the ears of stalwart young stone
cutter of this city, named stafford, and also
the auriculars of gay young railroad
engineer named Morgan.
Both fell in love with the Modest girl at
first sight, the parents Objectlng to stafford,
who is a Catholic, while the daughter mani
tested slight prefert nee for him. To make
a long story short, Stafford was devoted in
mis- attention that, unknown TO the parents,
he succeeded in engaging himself to the OBJ
jectcf his alteration, and gave her $l00 with
which TO purchase few necessary articles
of wearing apparel. This reaching the
fathers ears, he sent for Stafford and Morgan
the latter appearing upon the scene accom-
panied by two frionds-and with his pretty
daughter met them all in his little parlOr.
The feelings of the rivals can well be i'm
agined when the blunt Old Quaker announced
to his daughter that her two admirers were
before her. and that although he preferred
the engineer, he would leave the choice of her
future husband entirely with her. The poor
girl burst into tears, and 1t could be plainly
seen by the tumultu0us heavlng of her bosom
that great struggle was going on between
filial devotion on one side and love for the
choice of her young heart on the other. Pend
ing the decision stafford and Morgan hardly
dared raise their eyes from the carpet, At
last, with mighty effort and voice fun Of
tears, the young Quakeress sobbed the name
of stafford, ana gently put her nand in his.
Morgan accepted the situation like a BILE
fellow, and, with his friends, left the house

snakea in HIs stomach.

ELMIRA, N. Y, Oct 5.-For two years past
John Lougwell. OF Charleston, Pa, has been
subject to iits, being attacked suddenly, and
lying un conscious for hours. Within the last
few months he has experienced a cold sensa-
tion in the throat occasionally, as II some-
thing was rising into his mouth. THIS, at
tended with the singular feeling in his stom-
ach, convinced him that there was something
lying there. His physician was as ked 10 give
him an emetic, anyhow, and accordingly gave
his patient large dose. The result was that
Mr.. Longwel threw up two snakes. one about
fourteen inches long and the other foot IN
length, brown in color and both alive, and
they are alive yet. This story is vouched for
by several who were about the house at the
time, and the physician expresses his belief in
the incident. Longwell is young farmer
and man Of veracity. Mr.. Longwen thinks
that he swallowed the eggs which produced
the snakes while carelessly drinking water
from q snrinP.

The Smallpox Invasion.

The action of the government ordering
sanitary inspectors on duty along the
Canadian frontier meets the hearty APP
proval OF the people. smallpox has al
ready appeared at several places in the
United States, one case being imported
direct from Canada into New York city.
There is no occasion for alarm, but there
is occasion for the adoption Of reasonable
precautions to prevent the further i'm
portatiOn OF the disease, and to stamp it
out where it has already obtained lodg-
ment in this country.
Fortunately, our sanitary authorities
as we'll as physicians, generally, know
great deal more about this loathsome dis
ease--its prevention and treatment-than
was known a half century ago. 1t has
been demonstrated to the satisfaction not
only Of the medical profession, but of
nearly every Intelligent person in this
country, that vaccination, if it does not
give complete protection from the dis
ease, greatly lessons Its malignity, as
we'll as the chances of contracting it.
Formerly the percentage Of mortality
in smallpox cases was very large. 1t
has been gradually reduced, until now
this disease is not nearly as much
dreaded as it was.
The Gordon along the Canadian border,
1t faithfully maintained, will no doubt
be effective in preventing the further inn
portation OF smallpox. The sanitary
boards of nearly all the cities and towns
throughout the country are well Or
gained, and have the most approved
regulations to guide them in the perform
ance of their duties. The cooperation OF
the people can be relied on, and there is
every reason TO hope that the invasion
will not be serious or long-continued.
The authorities Of the large cities should
be especially watchful and strict, and
should take steps promptly to protect the
people by preventing the Importation o!
smallpox cases, and IN places whore Il
has been, or shall hereafter be introduced
immediate and decided steps should bt
taken to prevent it from spreading.
Should smallpox become epidemic in
any Of our large cities it would, no doubt
soon spread nearly all over the country
and cause much anxiety and sufering
and many deaths, to say nothing Of tn,
DAMAGE that would result TO trade and in
dustrial interests.
