eETTYssURG's SECOND DAY.
Thousands of Visitors and Veterans Assem-
bled In the Historic Town.

1nOuB8uu8 Oh tt81tOr8 ana veterans Assem-.
bled In the Historic Town.
GETTYSBURG, Pa, July 3.-Yesterday,
the second day of the reunion, opened clear
and beautiful, no cloud menacing the en-
joyment of the visitors, while trains with
thousands Of passengers rolled into the
town. At ten o'clock the five regiments of
Green's brigade, the Seventy-eighth, One
hundred and second, Sixtieth, One hundred
and thirty-seventh and One hundred and
forty-ninth New York, dedicated their
monuments on Culp's Hill, and immedi-
ately afterward reunion of the brigade
was held. Major-General henry J. Slo-
cum, who commanded the right of the
Federal line during the battle, and General
George S. Green, the brigade commander,
made addresses.
At the same hour Sickles' Excelsior
brigade, made up Of the Seventy first,
Seventy-second, Seventy third and Seventy
fourth New York regiments, met at the
site OF the brigade monument and held the
dedicatory exercises. Owing to some I'M
explainable trouble the monument, the
position Of which is near the peach orchard,
was not finished, the foundation being the
only thing in place. General Sickles was
to have unveiled the monument, but this
was dispensed with. DR.. Buckley, former
chaplain of the First regiment, made the
prayer, DR.. Twitchell dsliv cred the Grafton
and DR.. Blu ckley read an appropriate poem
entitled Excelsior" Appropriate musical
selections intsrspersed the exercises.
At $50 o'clock the members of the Irish
brigade, composed Of the Sixty-third,
Sixty ninth and Eighty-eighth New York
infantry, marched to the Catholic Church,
where requiem mass for those who fell in
the battle was celebrated by Fathers Sull-
lette and Corby. 1t was the latter who,
just before the brigade went into battle on
the afternoon of the I'd, blessed and alb
solved them The party then proceeded to
the monument near the "loop." just back
of the Devils Den," where the exercises
of dedication were held. General Robert
Nugent and Dennis F. Burke made ad-
dresses and Mrs. Rice-Knox and other
ladies led the singing.
In the afternoon the business meeting of
the Society Of the Army of the Potomac
was held.
At three o'clock the Society of the Army
of the Potomac had its annual meeting,
and elected General Joshua Chamberlain
president for the ensuing year. A tele-
gram was sent to General Sheridan con-
graduating him on his convalescence.
At 4;30 o'clock the grand procession
moved from Center Square to the rostrum
in the National Cemetery, where the ex-
ercises Of reunion between the blue and
the gray took place. On the rostrum the
front row Of chairs was occupied by Gen.
eral Sickles, General Beaver and General
Robinson, all with crutches. General Cor
don, Of Georgia, General Graham, General
Butterfield and Rev. DR.. Valentine, of the
Southern Theological Seminary. At five
o'clock General Robinson in a few brief
words introduced General Sickles as the
presiding officer, who addressed the vet

It is best for the average farmer to have
but one kind of chicks. They can then
have unlimited range, and there will be
no expensive yards to keep up, and you
will always know that your birds are
pure. Birds can't remain healthy unless
they are allowed plenty of room to roam
and hunt the early worm.
President Chamberlain, of the Iowa
Agricultural college, does not believe in
permanent pastures, preferring q regular
rotation of crops, with clover and timothy
meadow for two years of the rotation.
The land, under rotation. is in better
heart, and you get more grass, relatively.

Wright, who is a good authority on
poultry, thinks gapes infectious, or at
least epidemic. Unless, perhaps, thus
communicated by others, its occurrence
is caused by foul water, exposure to wet,
and want of nourishing food. The actual
symptoms exhibited are a number of
small worms in the windpipe and a gasp
ing for breath. If taken early it will be
sufficient to put a little camphor in the
drinking water or little turpentine may
be given daily in meal. In bad cases the
worms must be removed by introducing a
loop of horse hair into the trachea and
turning it round during the withdrawal,
repeating the operation till the worms are
extracted, A feather stripped almost to
the top may be used instead of the horse
hair. Small pellets of camphor are some
times given, and the feather may be dip
ped in turpentine diluted with three
parts water. When young chickens are
kept in clean coops and out of the early
morning dew and rains, they are not often
troubled with gapes.

scAs IN POTATOES.
Opinions Expressed by Scientists and Frs
gressive Farmers.

gressive
The two principal desires of the potato
grower are, Of course, quality and guam
tity, and If only one may be realized the
former has the preference. Potatoes
without disease are, or ought to be, the
great aim in this day of rot, blight and
scabby tubers. OF late years not only
learned scientists, but progressive farm
ers, have underworld to discover the cause
and a preventive for scab in potatoes.
Some of our ablest authorities, includ-
ing DR.. J. B. Lawes, of England; E. S.
Carman, editor of The Rural New Yorker;
DR.. f. M, HeXamer, DR.. Henry Stewart
and Professor Goeesman, after extensive
and repeated experiments, have become
convinced of the efficacy of special COM
mercial fertilizers for the potato. Mr..
Carman, who believes that wire worms
are at least one cause of scabby potatoes,
says; whether the wire worm dislikes
potato chemical fertilizers or whether
these do not furnish the shelter which
the worm prefers, we do not pretend to
say. We do say that in all of our tests
the potatoes grown with farm manure
have invariably been more injured with
wire worms than those grown with fertil-
%izers."
The feeling very generally prevails that
manure, especially fresh manure, Is pro-
life cause, in many soils, of potato scab,
and ought to be avoided for this crop. In
general, it is claimed that potatoes grown
on chemical fertilizers are more free from
rot scab and blight, and are smoother,
more uniform and of better quality than
those grown on unfermented stable ma
nure.
In a word, experience has proven that
organic manures tend to promote scab
and rot in potatoes. The organic sub
stance seems to afford a soil peculiarly
adapted to the development of fungi and
insects, which in time attack the pota-
toes. On the other hand, results favor
the belief that commercial fertilizers
made from minerals and properly treated
animal products are comparatively free
from fungi, and that such fertilizers tend
to prevent or destroy any chance fungus
growth in the potato itself.

Panels for n Portable Fence.

The panel illustrated in the accompa-
nying cut was recently described in Rural
New Yorker, and may be made of poles,
edging, fencing wire lath, any or all of
these, combined or separate, as chances
to be convenient.
These panels can be fastened to each
other with wire, willow bands, old hoops
or anything that will hold. This sort of
Enclosure was recommended originally
for portable hog yards. An extension, so
to speak, of the idea resulted in the in
closing of a piece of ground the right size
for a garden that was occupied by the
hogs until it was rich and clean enough
to be properly planted. Then three sides
of the fence were removed for convenience
in blowing. The hog yard joins the gar

Snuirrel Skins and the Weather.

Tackled upon the wall in one corner Oh
nv room are three native gray squirrel
skins. The agile chatterers that were
once within these soft jackets were shot
last October in the Maine woods, and their
furs were ,nned and sent to me at the
same time by IN enthusiastic sportsman
of nv acquaintance. The ordinary way
in which these skins are preserved IN the
country. is by merely tackine them upon
a good broad shingle, sprinkling little
salt over them and then setting aside for
a week to dry. For almost year now
have these furs been upon my wall III
soft, plant and dry condition as they
sh ,uId be. Last Tuesday, though, wEen
the atmosphere was so excessively sat
urated with moisture found them soak.
ing wet, with great beads of water distrib.
uted over the surface. The salt with
which they were permeated, had simply
! been unable to Withstand the humidity IN
the air, and had, of consequence, been
dissolved by it. If squirrel skins prove
to be such an accurate register of atmos,
pheric moisture, it might not be bad
idea for the Signal Service Bureau tt
adopt them henceforth as standard ny
grometers, or at least to use them in con.
nection with their other Instruments
My skins, as I write, are in normal con-
dition again. ."-MeW York NeWs.

The Philosophy of T hunder.

One of the most terse and succinct
descriptions of a natural phenomenon is
that recently gwen by NJ. Him, in which
he saws that the sound which is known as
thunder is due simply to the fact that the
air traversed by an electric spark, that
is. flash of lightning, is suddenly raised
to very high temperature, and has Its
volume, moreover, considerably in
creased. The column of gas thus sud-
denly heated and expanded is sometimes
several miles long, and as the duration OF
the flash is not even millionth of a Sc
cord, it follows that the noise bursts
forth at once from the whole column,
though for an observer in any one place
it commences where the lightning is at
the least distance.
In precise terms, according to NJ. Him,
the beginning of the thunder clap gives
US the minimum distance OF the Light
ming, and the length Of the thunder clap
gives u, the length of the column. he
also remarks that when flash of light
ming strikes the ground it is not neces-
sariIy from the place struck that the first
noise is heard. Again, he points out
that bullet whistles in traversing the
air, So that we can to certain extent
follow its flight, the same thing also hap
peniag with falling meteorite just be-
fore striking the earth. The noise &C
tually heard has been compared to the
sound produced when one tears linen. 1t
is due, really, to the fact that the ar.
rapidly pushed on one side in front oil
the pro ectile, whether bullet or meteor
ite, quickly rushas back to fill the gap
left in the rear.
