Watering Plants,

Some people attempt to keep pot
plants without giving them any water at
all, the result is familiar to every one
Usually, however, the earth in the pot
or box is kept soaked and very much in
the condition of an ordinary swamp. 1t
is even said that malaria has resulted
from living in rooms containing house
plants, owing to the damp soil. We
have ourselves seen dead cvergrtens
pulled out of boxes full of mud. A gar-
dener's journal gives utterance to the fol-
lowing timely remark: Watering plants
is one of the most important things in
the culture of house plants, and very spc-
cial care should be devoted to it. Plants
ought not to be wet until they need it.
1t will be evident THAT they require wet
ting. if on taking the earth from the pot
it crumbles to pieces like dust; sure
sign is to knock on the side of the pot,
near the middle, with the finger knuckle.
If it gives forth hollow ring, the plant
needs water; if there is dull sound,
there is still moisture enough to sustain
the plant. Plants must not be wet more
than once or twice day; on dry, clear
days they require more water than on
damp, cloudy days. On the other hand,
the earth must not be allowed to dry out
entirely, for that is also very injurious.

FOR THE FARM AND HOME.


The potato has long been used as a
food for our domestic animals, and es-
pecially in years of great crops, when
their use as human food furnishes but a
partial market, English farmers have
used them as food for various animals
They are relished by horses, cattle and
sheep in the raw state; but it is not safe
to feed them in this way, except in very
limited quantity. In the raw state they
are not well digestcd, and produce a lax
ative condition of the bowels, and for
this reason few quarts are beneficial TO
the horse incidentally, and the same for
working oxen and cows; but if fed in as
large quantity as onc-half bushel per
day to milch cows, the quantity and
quality of the milk will be reduced,
To the pig they are not nutritious in
the raw condition, and are not relished
except two or three at time. But when
boiled or steamed, the pig eats them
greedily and thrives upon them.-Rural
Neao Yorker.

FoRTY-NINTH CONGRESS


Mr. Hoar, from the committee on priyi-
leges and elections, reported favorably bill
fixing the time for the meeting of Congress
in 1887, and every second year thereafter on
the first Monday In October and in 1886 and
every second year thereafter ON the second
Monday Of November.
Mr., ingalls, offered a resolution, which was
agreed 10, directing the committee ON finance
TO inquire into the propriety of making such
an amendment to sec. 1871 OF the Revised
Statutes as may be necessary TO require the
issue of United States notes of the denomina-
tions of 81 and So
The consideration of Mr.. Eustis silver res
olution was taken up.
Senator Beck introduced bill TO provide
for the issue of coin certificates, They are to
be of any denomination for which legal
tenders may now be issued, and when re-
ceived at the Treasury they are TO be reissued,
All gold and silver certificates now outstand-
ing are to be retired when secured at the
Treasury. Coin certificates are to be issued
in exchange for deposits of gold or silver in
sums of $40 and multiples thereof No coin
certificate to be of a larger denomination
than $500, and at least two thirds eff those in
circulation are to be in denominations of less
than $50
Senator Allison introduced his silver bill
which provides that silver in sums of $50 and
over shall be redeelAed at any time in gold or
legal tender notes, aboishes the sinking fund
for the redemption of legal tenders, and di.
reefs that it be covered into the treasury, and
directs that whenever the term legal
tenders" is used it shall embrace equally gold,
silver and legal tender notes, His idea is Ia
put gold, silver and notes on an absolute
equality, and contains no provisions for
changing the present law regarding coinage
The senate passed several public buildings
bills, including $3.50, 600 one for Worcester.

In wetting them the water must be
poured on in such way that it viii run
out again through the hole in the bottom
of the pot Ii the earth gets too dry, it
is best to place the pot in water so that
the water will saturate the dirt very
gradually, They may be watered ut any
hour of the day, except when the sun is
shining on the pot or has just left it; for
the earth gets hot when the sun shines on
it, and then if cold water is poured on
it, it will cool off too rapidly, The best
time for watering flowers in summer is
the evening, and in winter noon is best.

Tho Millionaire.

Who is this hard working man? This
is the millionaire, the man who wanted
to be rich and has got rich, and is get
ting richer every day. Is he the happier
for it2 Happy! Bless your soul, he's
more miserable, fuller of cares and ankle
ties and harder work than ever He is
the vcriest slave of them slt He is
pushed with business, and business is
pushing him. He has so many irons in
while Others are getting cold. His pres
ent life is a rush from the meeting of this
board to that board and thence to some
other board. He is director Of this com
pany and trustee in that and silent part
ner in another, world without end, and
more coming. He hasn't time to cat and
hardly to sleep, and when he does lay his
poor head on the pillow he can't stop
business plans and schemes, hopes and
fears from whirling and whiTing through
it. He can't take a day to spend in quiet
out of town. and if he could he would
take all of his business with him into the
woods. He is slave aud victim. His
millions in bank don't bring him so much
enjoyment as does new ten cent piece
given to a boy ten years old. He is in
fected with the mania for getting, and
the more he gets the more he wants. II
you could see him just as he is and where
he is Inevitably going, and how he is
going there, you would only pity him.
He is one of the coming victims Of

DIED POOR.
A Subscription Fund for General
Haucock'S Widow


General Hancock has left his family with
out means. He died poor, and the fact being
known to his friends and comrades, sub
scription fund has been started in New York
city for the widow. The plan was original
ed by ex-POlice Commissioner General W. f.
Badly Smith, General B. Fry, William
Burns and T. L. Crittenden j. Pierrepont
Morgan is treasurer of the fund. Already
the fund has begun its growth, these sums
having been signed: Samuel j. Tilden head
of list $1,000, William r. Grace $500, NJ B.
Brown $3.50, John D. Crimnins $3.50 The
subscription paper reads thus in opening:
Another great man has died poor. Another
noble woman has been left with meagre
support, though she shared the fortunes of
her husband, and did her full part in making
his fame Liberal and patriotic citizens have
suggested to intimate friends of General
Hancock and his widow, that n fund be
raised for the benefit of his family. We
therefore, knowing General Hancock's Cir
cumstances and the drafts upon his pay by
the Inequalities arising from his official posi-
ton, and the endless charities to which h.
responded, especially those resulting from
the civil war, earnestly commend the sug-
gestion.
As soon as it became knownin Philadelphia
that General Hancock had no adequate for
tune to leave his widow, a movement was at
once set on foot to raise a fund for her bene-
fit. This fund has been started by the gift
of $1,000 each by Mcsscrs. A. j. Drexel and
George w. Childs.
