WHEAT AFTER CORN.
Unquestlonably the Cheapest Way OF Rtls.
ing q Good Wheat Crop.

Unquestlonably the Cheapest Way OF ksls.
ing q Good Wheat Crop.
The practice Of sowing wheat after
corn is deservedly meeting with in
creased favor, both ON account of its
harmony with the well-established prin.
ciplc of rotation of crops, and because
it is the cheapest way crop of wheat
can be made. A few years ago it WIS
thought to be impossible to get full
crop of wheat by this method, and
there are probably many farmers y.t
who regard it as a slovenly process;
but experience has amply demonstrated
that this need necessarily be no more
slovenly method than any other, and
that when it is properly followed out the
results fully justify the means.
To insure the best results the corn
should have been thoroughly culti-
waited, both to keep down weeds and
to keep the soil loose. The corn
should have been planted early, that
cutting may begin early. Just before
cutting is begun, the shock-rows should
be sown with one-horse drill, If pos
sible, If not, SOW broadcast and Guilt
vate in; then put in a force of cutters
sufficient to finish the field within a
week. AS soon as the cutting is fairly
under way, put on a heavy spike har-
row and harrow down the stubs,
which should be cut close to the
ground, as long stubs are great vex-
alton in drilling Harrow inlands, 60
ing in one direction, and thoroughly
pulverizing the surface; then follow
with the drill, driving in the same d.
rection with the narrowing. to avoid
the Inconvenience Of the broken stubs
as much as possible.
A thorough narrowing is much bet
ter than blowing, even when the
ground has become quite hard, as the
plow leaves the subsoil SO loose as to
perEit the access of too much air.
The essentials of good crop of
wheat after corn are, first, of course. a
soil naturally rich, or fertilized with
clover or stable manure. Second,
early planting and thorough culture of
the corn. Third, early cutting Of the
corn. As soon as the grains are
fairly in the dough, the corn may be
cut not only safely, but with advant-
age, as the grain will fill out from the
stalks, and both grain and fodder will
be the more valuable. Fourth. thor
ough pulverization of the surface, and
fifth. good seed, good sowing and good
| weather. Farm and Fircstde.

KEEPING A ROOM COOL.
The Ingenious Device Constructed by .
New Orleans COmpositor.

The Ingenious Device Constructed by .
New Orleans Composition.
The composing room of the Picayune
is situated in the upper story Of its
publication house, just under the roof,
and in summer is ex tremely hot. An
inspiration seemed to have come to
one of the oppressed occupants. and.
in accordance with it, vertical
wooden box was constructed in the
corner of the room, with openings at
the floor and ceiling, and furnished
with pipe for supplying water at the
top, and pan and drain at the bottom
for receiving the flow and carrying it
safely away. The supply pipe was
bent over the upper end Of the shaft,
and fitted with nose like that of a
watering pot, SO as to deliver shower
of spray instead of solid stream. On
connecting it with the service pipe the
movement of the water was found to
cause an active circulation of the air
in that part Of the room. which was
drawn in at the upper opening of the
shaft and issued again cool and fresh
at the floor level.
The most surprising thing about the
experiment seems to have been the ef-
feet of the water in cooling the air to
a degree much below its own temper
allure. With Mississippi water when
drawn from the service pipe indi-
Gated temperature of "a degrees, the
air of room in which the thermomet-
er at the beginning of trial stood at &c
degrees was cooled in passing through
the length of the shaft to "a degrees, or
about q degrees below the temperature
at which it entered and 10 degrees be-
low that of the water which was used
to cool it OF course the absorption
of heat BY the evaporation of portion
of the water accounts for its refrigerat-
ing effect, but the result seems to have
been so easily and inexpensively at
tanned that the experiment would be
well worth repeating in other cases.

Black Walnut Pickles.

The nuts should be gathered when
about half grown, and while soft
enough to be readily pierced with a
common brass pin. When gathered,
lay them in strong brine for four or
five days. changing the brine every
forty-eight hours. Then drain off the
brine and allow them to dry for an
hour or two; then pierce each nut with
large needle, and lay them in cold
water for four or five hours. Take
good cider vinegar, and to each gallon
add teacup Of sugar. three dozen
cloves, the same number of black
pcppercorns, half as much allspice
and few blades of mace. Heat the
vinegar ard spices, and poor over the
nuts while hot In three or four days
pour off the vinegar. heat up again,
and pour back into the jars or other
vessel containing the pickles. The
pickles'wi be ready for use in isur 70

BY observing how far the sun mas
to sink beneath the horizon before the
topmost summit of the air is cut of
from its rays, Monsieur Bravais, some
years ago, determined the greatest up
ward limit of twilight to be $4,000
feet, or nearly seventy-one miles above
sea level. By observing the earth's
shadow on the moon during eclipses,
astronomers had inferred that the at
mosphere must be sufficiently dense to
produce twilight for at least 100000
feet away from the earth's surface.

Remarkable Growth Of Education and SO.
berness Among the People Of France.
The newly, but on the whole, splen-
didly equipped schools are silently trans
forming France. There is far less flip
pancy, far less tendency to laugh at
every thing in the character OF French
men and women in the present genera.
ton than in that Of their elders. The
rising generation will be quite as serious
as the Germans themselves, and perhaps
this is not entirely to be desired. The
free school before the advent Of the Re-
public was SO poorly understood here
that even now the middle class can not
comprehend why it should be tolerated
With the selfish view Of things which
prevails in most of the European coun-
tries, they do not wish to be taxed for
the education of their people children.
But the Republic does tax them roundly,
aud the City Of Paris does fine work
making it possible for the poorest child,
no matter how humble its parents may
besin station, to have a comfortable
meal in the middle of the day for the
astonishingly low price of two sous.
When this two-sous dcjeuner was in.
vented it proved very seductive to poor
folks, and wherever parents were SO
poor that the two sous a day was a strain
upon their resources, the city offered the
breakfast to the child free, without
making any disagreeabe conditions.
Thousands of children are daily sup
piled with warm meal at the city's ex'
pcnse. The clerical party does its best
to rival in charitable deeds its Republic
can antagonists, but it can not of course
keep pace with the State, and great il
its disgust thereat.-Iaris Letter.
