Management of Roses

The following good practical di-
rections- for the roses, more particu-
larly the hybred perpetuals, were
given by J. o. Bourn, in his address
before the Massachusetts Horticul-
tural Society
The ground for roses should be
thoroughly drained, rendered as por.
Gus as possible. and fertilized. In
clay soils the use of sand, lime, SCOT,
burnt earth, and loose, light veget-
able matter, such as leaf mould, will
alter the texture and improve the
quality. At the time of planting.

POETRY.
Smile Whenever You Can.

When things don't go TO suit you
And the world seems upside down,
Don't waste your time In fretting,
But drive away that frown;
Since life is Oft perplexing.
IT'S much the wisest plan
To bear all trials bravely
And smile whenever You can.
Why should You dread the morrow,
And thus despoil to day?
For when you borrow trouble,
You will always have to pay.
II is a good old maxim,
Which should be often preached
Don't cross the bridge before you ,-
Until the bridge is reached.
You might be spared much signing
If you would keep in mind
The thought that good and evil
Are always here combined.
There must be something wanting.
And though you roll in wealth
You must miss from your casket
That precious jewel-health.
And though you're strong and sturdy
You may have an empty purse
(And earth has many trials
Which I consider wOrse)
But whether JOY or sorrow
FIJI up your mortal span.
9 Twill make your pathway brighter
To smile whene'er you can.

Foot Rot,

Foot rot is one Of the worst ene-
mics of the flock, and the difficulty
with which it is controlled, when it
once becomes located, is one Of its
worse features. In fact, it is an i'm
possibility, when this disease once
gets in a flock, to thoroughly eradi-
cate it, if careful course is not pur.
sued. Foot rot is a disease of the
blood, and the blood m ust first lie pu.
rified before there can be any hopes
of effectually Kidding the system OF
its germs. Here is where very many
shepherds make their mistake in
dealing with it. They commence Ey
docsoring the feet of the sheep, with.
out paying any attention to the real
seat Of the trouble-the blood. Sui.
phur is perhaps the best known EN-.
edy that we have for purifying the
blood of both man and beast, and es.
pecially is it useful in doctoring stock
on account of the ease with which it
can be administered. In doct oriug
sheep for the foot rot, the first thing
to be done is to commence feeding
sulphur to clean the blood, and then
treat the sore feet in the usual man
ner. A well.known sheep breeder in
Ohio informed us that he could make
no headway in conquering it, until
he commenced feeding sulphur, after
which he had comparatively little
trouble in effecting cure. 1t may
be we'll to add that~while the sheep
are being fed sulphur, it Is impera.
tive that they be kept in the dry, us
one exposure to storm may do more
injury than the foot rot.-Nstional

The True Secret.

Fathers Old Boots are There -

Many a picture of moving pathos
appears in the dark gallery of drunk
enness. We have seen but few more
tout hing ones than this from the pen
of Mrs. M. A. Kidder. She describes
little Benny, the son Of a drunken
father. sitting in room with his
mother and little sister. BY looking
at this sad and thoughtful face one
would have taken him to be ten years
OF age, yet he was but six.
No wonder. For four years this
almost baby had been used to seeing
a druken father 60 in and out of the
cottage. lie scarcely remembers
anything from him. but cruelty and
abuse. But now he is dead. The
green sod had lain on his grave for a
week or SO, but the effects of his con-
duct were not buried with him.
The poor children would start with
a sludder at every uncertain step on
the walk outside, and at every hest
tating hand upon the latch. On the
day mentioned Benny's mother was
getting dinner. evil my little son

MormOns Going to the Sandwich
Isles, Perhaps.

DR.. George A. Rawson, who is agent
for about 1000, 600 acres of land in the
Sandwich Islands, says he has been in
negotiation with the heads of the Nor
mon Church, aud thinks they will buy
the land and move Mormondom there,
bag and baggage
At this point the Record will offer the
Mormons little advice. If they go to
the Sandwich Islands and desire to live
in the enjoyment OF their social and re-
ligious ideas undisturbed until fhe end
of time, they can do so simply by ac-
quiring no property. If, however, they
grow rich and make the Sandwich Is
lands garden of fruits and flowers the
people of Massachusetts will feel espec
tally commissioned by the Lord to drive
them out and take possession. 1t is re-
markable how these Plymouth Rock
people are always backed by the Lord
when they start out after good thing
which they want real bad. It's also re-
markable that they never discover great
fniquities calling for the exercise of
their moral efforts unless large pros
pective dividends are in sight. Colorado

A Fact That Was Overlooked.

To the Editor of THE HERALD:
1 notice that the Tribune still bowls
about the privileges enjoyed by B. Y.
Hampton at the County jail. If it will
consult with Marshal Ireland or War
den Dow. it will find that there are
prisoners at the Pen who enjoy consid-
erably more freedom (if they don't
happen to be Mormons) and are much
less watched than is 3. Y. Hampton.
Jerry Dalton, who was sent up for
twelve years on charge of rape, drives
Penitentiary team and comes to town
by himself frequently; Alex. S. Hill,
who was in the Pen for embezzling his
wlfe's money, was also treated more
Ike guest than prisoner. Every
prison has rules which allow such Glenn
ency, and anyone but beclouded intel
lect like the Tribune reporters must
know it. a."
