Turpentine Remedy.

An aged physician in Washing
ton, who is retired from practice,
asman of extensive learning and
high character, says the younger
practitioners laugh at him for
recommending turpentine as a
remedy for disease of the lungs.
He contends that they have moth
ing better to suggest; indeed,
they have no remedy for con-
sumption. He claims that in
twenty seven clear cases of disease
the use of this remedy under his
own directions has restored the
several parties to health, one Of
these being his own wife and
another being man who, from
being unable to sit OF lie i.a a
+prostrate position, has been Tor
five years doing engineers work
In the Treasury.
The remedy is simple: Procure
at drug store some white t1n.
|pentlne; take In the mouth b1.
the size of pea; swallow the
slowly dssolving substance, and
when it is quite soft swallow the
lump. The same remedy is ex-
cellent for a cold. The medicine
is an old one not at variance, how
ever, with the modern notion of
sending patients to pine regions to
lnhale terebinthine odors.

Preparing the Asparagus Bed far
Winter.

The usual practice is to Row off
the tops of asparagus after tEey
have been killed by frost, and
burn them up. This is done to get
rid of the seed, but by so doing
land is left exposed to the sweep.
ing winds of winter, unless, as
some do who have small beds. the
land be at once covered with stable
manure. But there is another way
to get rid of the seed, which IN
large fields is sometimes resorted
to, which is to so over the bed and
cut out the seed stalks, carry them
from the field and burn them, or
otherwise dispsse of them, SO they
will not seed the land. The stalks
that have no seeds on them are
left on the field, and roller run
over them that they may be in a
condition to mulch the land. in
the spring they must be raked off
clean before ploughing. When
the tops are all taken off in the
autumn it is important that the
land should be covered with a
good dressing of manure as soon
as the land is laid open to the sun
and winds, but when only the seed
stocks are taken it is not so i'm
portant that the manure should be
put on in the autumn; in fact.
when the land is covered with q
good crop of tops the manure may
not be applied until the next
spring, then it may be applied, not
on the surface, but in a furrow
made on each side of the row of
roots, thus placing it down where
the plants readily get hold of it.;
but when the manure is applied in
the autumn this should not be
done, because the roots will some
of them be disturbed at a season
when they ought not to be. and
the land will be left in an exposed
position. Whenever manure is
applied to an asparagus bed in
the autumn, it should be spread
on the surface as a protection to
the land.
When person has only small
bed of a rod or Two in the garden
for family use, the garden will
look better if the tops be all cut
down and the land protected by
two or three inches in depth of
manure, but when more than an
inch in depth of manure is applied,
it should be raked of off early in
the spring or it will keep the
ground cold and the asparagus
will not start as early. We have
seen asparagus beds that had
been covered with six inches in

Gleanngs.

| The days of the cabbage worm
are numbered it would seem.
They have, according to Prof.
Forbes of the Illinois Department
of Agriculture, been clearly less
abundant in many sections during
the past season than previously.
This difference is due apparently
to destructive disease of the
worm, which was first reported on
IN 1882. Hopes are entertained
by some wide awake entomolo-
gusts that the disease may be pro-
pagated and extended artiiicially,
and efforts are being directed to-
wards such a desirl able end. 1t is,
to say the least encouraging to
the gardener sol aetimes to find
disease and blight that work in
his favor.
Manure water is easily made.
A sunken hogshead in she barn
yard, covered with lot of white
oak saplngs, four or five inches
through, will fill up with the first
rain and be strong enough to make
the crops. laugh over an acre or
more of land If mixed with plenty
of water. The application should
not be stronger than one-fourth
manure water to three parts water.
Nitrate of soda may be very effec-
lively applied in this way, say one
pound to ten gallons of water, on
three pounds to the barrel.
The best time to apply ashes to
grass land is early in spring. The
quantity should vary with the needs
of the soil, and this can be de-
termined only by experience,
some soils requiring much less
than others according to their
composition; but the usual amount
is twenty to fifty bushels per acre.
Occasionally much larger applica-
tons have oeen found useful. 1t
IS best to try different quantities
in different parts of the same field,
and measure the result on the
crops.
A resident of Columbia, n. c.,
has gone into the cultivation of the
sunhower on large scale. He
has several acres planted with
different varieties of the flower,
and expects within u short time to
be able to supply the Southern
market with the product. The
seed makes splendid food for
poultry, and horses and cattle are
quite fond of it.

Puzzled Pigs.

Throughout the forest regions
of the Allegheny mountains is
found the staked and ridered
brush fence made from the trees
and brush growing on the line
where the fence is constructed.
One farmer, in constructing a
fence of this kind, had placed a
crooked, hollow log at the bottom,
with one end opening in his corn
field and the other into the woods
adjoining. When the corn was
ripening he was much annoyed by
several shoats that kept entering
the field, but where they got in
baffied detection, till their trail
was discovered leading to the hol-
low log. The log was then turned
over so that both ends opened
into the woods, and the boys hid
near by to await the shoats' re-
turn. Grunting with satisfaction
at the prospects for more delicious
roasting ears, they soon arrived;
and the leader, followed by the
rest, dove into the log, expecting
of course to emerge into the corn.
field. But astonished at coming
out on the wrong side, again
they raced through the log, until
all with puzzled look gave up the
trial, and in only such language as
pigs can use, expressed their dis.
satisfaction, much to the enjoy
ment of the boys.- American

An inferior animal will make an
inferior use Of food she eats. A
good animal will make a more
profitable use of the same or even
grecter quantity of food.
Muddy corrals will cause the
milk to fall Off. When COWS are
compelled to stand knee-deep in
mud with their bodies plastered
over with it. dirt will find its way
into the pail. while additional food
will be necessary to supply that
lost from cold and exposure.
The United States could not do
better than copy France in deal
ing with butter adulteration. If a
dealer is convicted of this he is
not only put in durance vile, but
his shop is closed, the sentence of

ing and his trading patent forever
withdrawn.
1t is good COW that will pay
her cost in years sale of butter
besides furnishing milk for family
use. But it is only such COWS that
farmer keeping but one animal
can afford to own. Usually poor
families keeping only one COW,
have that of superior merit. In
large herds owned by slow farmers
there will be a number of culls,
