The medical faculty of Paris includes an
anti Pasteur faction that seems to be
gaining strength. Their last manifesto
calls attention to the suspicious circum-
stance that incubation has once more
clearly failed in a case which the great
pathologist had pronounced decidedly
curable.' Among his Russian patients
was a girl OF Is. whose only visible injury
was the mark Of a tritlng snap-bite on the
wrist of the left hand. She underwent the
usual treatment, and was dismissed as

west of her native village she was, how

FARM, HOME AND GARDEN.
BY THE FIRE.
FROM ALL THE YEAR ROUND.

She sat and unused by the driftwood fire.
As the leaping flames flashed higher and higher
And the panthoms of youth. as fair and bright
Grew for her gaze in the ruddy light;
The blossoms she gathered in life's young days
Wreathed and waved in the Pickering blaze:
And she laughed through sunny mist of tears
That rose at the dream Of her April years;
And ever and aye the sudden rain
Plashed on the glittering window-pane.
Sobered and saddened the pictures that showed
AS the drift-wood logs to red core glewed;
And the fancied figures Of olden time
Passed with the steadied step Of their prime:
The daisies and snowdrops bloomed and died,
Red roses and lilies stood side by side;
While richer and fuller and deeper grew
The lines of the pictures August drew,
And ever and aye the falling rain
Streamed thick and fast on the window pane.
The driftweod died down into feathery ash,
Where family and fifty shone the flash;
Slowly and sadly her pulses beat,
And soft was the fall as Of vanquiShing feet;
And lush and green as from guarded grave
She saw the grass of the valley wave,
And like echoes in ruins seemed to sigh.
The wet west wind that went wandering by:
And caught the sweep of the sullen rain,
And dashed it against the window-paRe.

The Care of Early Lambs.

The first lamb of the season will be
likely to appear about this time, and
to careful shepherd this is matter
of anxiety. The newborn lamb is a
weak thing, and the eve is at times
not nearly SO motherly as she should
be; consequently the young thing is
In danger of being lost unless care is
given to it. Chilling is the greatest
danger. If kept warm, the lamb can
do very well without nourishment for
few hours, and a little warmed,
fresh cows milk, give with teaspoon
will strengthen it until it can be re-
turned to the eve and helped to suck,
after which it will be able to take care
of itself.
The Scotch shepherd, whose flock
ranges the exposed mountain pastures
keeps fire in his hut and warm
blanket in which to nestle the lambs
which are dropped in stormy weather.
After battling successfully with its
proverbial adversely for twenty-four
hours, the lamb is usually past danger
If ordinary care is exercised to avoid
accidents.
The profit to be derived from early
lambs which can be made ready for
the market by April or May, should
be an incentive, both TO keep small
flock, and to care for it IN the best
The flock should be an an
mex to every farm; it costs little to
feed, and the care of it comes mostly
at season when there is leasure to
give it. There is 40 reason why the
farmer WHO will go to the cost of pro-
vidlng warm poultry house with a
front of wide sash open to the south
to receive the sun should not do as
much for his flock, and have shed
thus provided for the ewes with early
lambs to shelter in for a day or two.
After that period is over the protection
will not be needed. It would be nee
eSsary to protect the sash inside with
bars to prevent the ewes from break
Ing the glass. A sort of artificial
mother, too, might equally we'll be
provided for the lambs as for the less
valuable chickens.

Our Whole Duty.
Journal Agriculture.

Itmay be regarded as almost effront-
cry to advise farmers to do better
farming as means of bringing them
out of their present straitened circum-
stances, whe u each one one knows
sor himself that the principal cause
of the hard times | les in the manipu-
ton of other men, and yet tkere is
sense in advising better work on the
sarm. There is no lack of informa-
ton as to the real guilty parties, and
exhortions upon how to correct the
evils and punish the offenders. We
are doing our share in that direction,
but we must not lose sight of the fact
that. should every political wrong be
righted in day, there still remains
the battle of life on the farm. Crops
must be made and marked, cattle and
hogs must be raised and sold, and the
farmers family must be fed and cloth
ed.
We cannot make the markets bet
ter CT worse, but we can take our
place in the ranks as farmers and
hold it, and thus to a very great ex-
tent govern the price of our own pro-
ducts. If one man takes to the mar
ket wheat that is full of chaf and
dirt, receiving 4 or cents below the
market price, we can make ours clean
and plump by good cultivation and
good handling and thus get the best
the market affords. While some
men are devoting four years of time
and large amount of feed to the
growth of a steer that can at best
only weigh 1000, and with good care,
make a steer of superior bread weigh
l, 400 pounds in two years we are get
ting the very best out of the market
there is in 1t. We are fixing our own
position and if products are low we
are at the head of the list in prices. If
our fruits, grain, stock and butter are
of the best we not only get the best
prices but find ready sale, while the
poor articles only sells when scarce,
and then at an inferior price. When
the market is more than supplied the
good articles is chosen even at higher
price.
There was time when there was a
possibility for q slip saod farmer keep
ing his head above the water; that
time is now past. The world is awake,
competition is keen; if one man won't
supply the best butter to a customer
another will, and if one man won't
pay the very best price for a good
article another will. There is mo-
nopoly all round except ia the work
of the farm; there every man is for
himself. and the one that lags behind
is sure to have hard time of it. We
must neither give ourselves blindly to
crop raising, allowing polititions to
swamp the Government, nor must we
devote our whole time to politics and
neglect the farm. The farmers have
time and intelligence enough to attend
to both at the proper time and in the
proper way. Will they do it?
