RULED BY pREInnICE

Few persons realize how thoroughly
they are controlled by prejudice even to
their own disadvantage. For many wears
the treatment of rheumatism, neuralgia,
sciatica and headache has been bv some
outward application, and, therefore, with
out stopping to think that the origin of
these troubles must, from necessity, be in
ternal, the weary sufferer continues to rub
rub and find no relief. Athlophoros is taken
internally, and as a proof that this is the
correct principle, it cures surely and quick
ly. The statement of those who hare been
cured ought to convince the incredulous

Food Value of Green Corn for
Ensilage.
QUEBEC PAPERS, No. 4

Now that so much interest attaches
to ensilage, it becomes important to
compare the feeding value of the va
rieties of corn grown for such purposes.
Farmers everywhere are very apt to
attach more Importance to quantity per
acre in tons than to quantity of real
food obtained. Here in Canada, where
only the early varieties of corn mature,
farmers generally sow western seed
corn for ensilage. This western en-
silage corn, l believe, hardly contains
fifteen per cent of solids. The eX-
pected returns being thirty tons per
acre, or more, the quantity of food thus
obtained would amount to 5000 pounds
per acre and 81 900 pounds of useless
water. On the other hand, the earliest
and best varieties, with the same care
and manure, should give twenty tons
of sufficiently matured food, containing,
/ take it, as much as twenty-five per
cent of solids. This would amount to
10000 pounds of solids and 10000
pounds of water. If my approXimative
figures be right, by sowing early va
rieties of corn only the farmer would OBJ
tain ELEVEN PER CENT MORE FOOD per
acre, and would lift and carry THIRTY
THREE PER CENT LESS. OF USELESS
WEIGHT from his field to the cutter, then

am without the exact results obtained
in your various experimental stations
on this very subject. However, if my
memory serves me right, my approxi'
native figures are not far wrong. As

Under Way Again.

We believe that the next census will
show that, after standing still for thirty
years, the agricultural population of
New England is again increasing.
There is not a particle of doubt that
the New England farming class has
greatly improved its condition, and is
far more intelligent, Independent and
forehanded than it was three decades
ago. We have often heard western
emigrants of the times before the war,
who have returned East on visit, speak
of the vast improvement and the marked
progress of our agriculture, and some

What to Teach Our Daughters.

At social gathering some one pro-
posed this question: What shall
teach my daughter?" The following
replies were handed in: Teach her that
one hundred cents make dollar.
Teach her to arrange the parlor and
the library. Teach her to say " No.
and mean it, or g Yes and stick to it.
Teach her to wear calico dress, and
to wear ii like a queen. Teach her
how to sew on buttons, darn stockings
and mend gloves. Teach her to dress
for health and comfort as well as for
appearance. Teach her to cultivate
flowers and to keep the kitchen garden.
Teach her to make the neatest room in
the house. Teach her to have nothing
to do with Incorporate or dissolute
Young men. Teach her that tight lacing
is uncomely as well as injurious to
health. Teach her to regard the NOR
ais and habits, and not money, in Sc
lecting her associates, Teach her to
observe the old rule: I" A place for
everything, and everything in its
place" Teach her that music, draw
ing and painting are real accomplish
ments in the home, and are not to be
neglected, if there be time and money
for their use. Teach her the important
truism: "That the more she lives
within her income the more she will
save and the further she will get away
from the poor-house." Teach her that a
good, steady, church-going mechanic,
farmer, clerk or teacher without a cent
is worth more than forty loafers or non
producers in broadcloth, Teach her to
embrace every opportunity for reading,
and to select such books as will give
her the most useful and practical infor-
nation, in order to make the best prog
ress in earlier as well as later home and
scbonl life

SAN Francisco Coal TRADE.
The J. W. Harrison Circular Of Feb
ruary 18th reviews the San Francisco
coal trade as follows: THE arrivals
this week have been From Great
Britain and Australia, 5375 tons {;
from the Northern collieries, $3.50
tons. There is q very respondent
outlook to the market in this line.
Any hopes for improvement are
groundless. Grain vessels have to
come, Goals they have to carry, and
prices will unquestionably remain
low the entire shipping season.
Notwithstanding the experience of
the past, cargoes of foreign Goals
will occasionally arrive unsold, as at
present, coming, as they do, to an
already supplied market, they will
necessarily leave a much larger loss
than If sold en- route. 1t is an open
question if the present tariff bill may
not reach coal. II any reduction
should be made it would be death
stroke to our local collieries, as even
with the IS cents per ton protection
they can barely survive. Greta and

DAILY States, Feb. 9th. !


High NJ among the glaciers of the
great Cascade mountains, In WASH
ington Territory. the Sncqualnie
river hss is source. 10. 600 fee, above
the level D: the sea From thence,
in rapid descent, il rushes on for
thirty miles, until the far famed
Sno9uslmie Falls are reached, where
it bounds wildly over 8 precipice OF
2.2 feet, snd almost reaches the tide
level A mile above the Falls the
river has five nile current, 10 about
l5e feet wide, and has an average
depth of six feet II will thus be
seen that an enormous body of water
is continually pouring over these
falls. which are the highest in the
range, with the exception of those
at Multnomah. on the Columbia
river, where there is a leap of 500
feet, while in respect to grandeur
snd volume the Snoqualmie Falls
are ahead of all others. From three
miles below the Falls to Puget Sound,
q distance Of forty miles, the river is
available for navigation, and steam
ers of light draught ply on its Wa
tiers during 8 portion of the year.
These particulars are given with
reference TO miniature representa-
ton of the Snoqualmie Falls that
has just been completed in the ex-
hibit of Washington Territory.
Always anxious TO improve his dis
play, Commissioner Ezra Meeker
has in this instance made q very
material addition TO the attractions
of the Government Building. To
Mr.. j. A. German, of Iowa, was
entrusted the scenic portion of the
work, and he has reproduced from
photographs and from description
an excellent and realistic model.
The distant foliage on the top on
either side blends admirably with
the genuine evergreens below. The
upper water dashed into foam is well
depicted on canvas, while real wa
ter pours down on the rocks be-
meath, producing q capital effect.
A photograph has been placed on
one side in order that visitors may
test the accuracy of the work The
whole result is creditable alike to the
enterprise Of the Commissioner and
the skill Of the artist. There is a
general impression among strangers
to the Territory that Washington is
frozen region in winter. This is
by no means the case. for while in
the high mountains the regions Of
perpetual snow are attained, in the
great Columbia and Puget Sound
basins on either side of the noun
tains and comprising nine-tenths of
the Territory, the winters are mild
with but little snow or ice, and the
summers cool and pleasant. The
thermometer in July and August
seldom reaches 80 degrees Fahren.
heit, the nights are cool, and there
is usually refreshing breeze from
the sea- Washington Territory is
extremely healthy, and from the
absence of marshes and the elevs-
ton of most of the land is abso-
lutely free from miasma. The
varied contents of the exhibit in the
Government Building bear incon-
trovertible testimony to the accu-
racy of these facts.
