The Crime OF Intemperance.

Bishop Ireland in late address upon the
evils of intemperance in the United States
and the influence of saloons thereon, and Of
alcoholic drinking as present curse Of man
kind, eloquently mathematical the evil
wherein he said, alcohol, demon.lke IN cum
ming and malicious intent, courts admission
to the mouth amid smiles and promises. The
craving for alcohol, begotten Of alcohol, ever
wakes stronger, and the moment comes when
it is a wild passion. 1t commands and OBJ
tains the most fearful sacrifice. In slavery
10 it woman foTgets her honor and the hus-
band pawns the cot of his dying wife. Old
age at its bidding puts ON the garment of
idiocy and closes its earthly journey in dis
grace and sim Intelligence will not ward
off its arrows and piety does not withstand
the fury of its breath. By it the sacred
home is made desolate. The poisonous breath
of alcohol passes over it; it is the passage of
death The drunkaTds soul exhales hatred
and sin, and the hearts OF wife and mother
break in anguish. Infancy is joyless; the
atmosphere of shame and crime leavens the
whole nature of sons and daughters. The
drunkenness of an employe endangers a whole
industry. Crime stalks forth suggested and
embodened by drink. Drunkenness is a
heinous sin, which unrepented Of, forbids the
doors of paradise to open.-ETdtFic Farmer

A sunday-scooI on Beer Kegs.

Great difficulty is often experienced by
missionaries of the American Sunday-school
Union in securing rooms in which to hold
meetings in Dakota. One who has had great
success in planting schools during the past
four years writes of working two or three
days in removing freight in a depot, so as TO
secure it as a place for organizing a Sunday
school. At one place he secured of a saloon
keeper the use Of an upper room in his build
ing, in which TO organize a Bible school-the
saloon-keeper kindly aiding the missionary
in carrying up beer Kegs, which were used as
supports for the seats. That school grew
into a church, and the influence Of the church
closed up the saloon.
One year after organizing the Sunday
school in the freight house, the missionary
was called 10 the dedication of a new church
and the installation of a minister in that
place. Often he must lie on the floor OF
"Shacln or "Dugout' in families which have
not heard preaching or prayer in years,
wrapped in his buffalo skin robe with his
buggy cushion for pillow but through al
the privations and hardships he is glad to
carry the gospel 70 the destitute.

The shane of Seed Corn.

Plumpness and weight are generally
regarded as important characteristics IN
small seed grain. In very rich soil this
may not make so much difference, but
plump, full weight oats and barley will,
if other conditions are equal, give better
results than that which is somewhat
shriveled. The latter shows a lack of
the material which nature stores in all
seed for nourishing the germ until the
root gets hold of the soil. 1t has not
been generally thought that this was i'm
portant in selecting grains of corn. Yet
1t may be, and some experiments show
that it probably is. A few years ago at
the New York Experimental Station
trial was made of corn from various
parts of the ear. Rather curiously, that
from the tip end produced the strongest
and best plants, that from the butt the
next, and that from the middle of the
ear the poorest. All were equally sound
and dry. The explanation seemed to De
that the tip end grains had room to ex-
pand into the round, full proportions
that this grain naturally produces il
given room. The grains at the butt end
'were somewhat compressed, but not so
much so as those in the middle of the
ear, where they set so closely as to crowd
each other. We have often seen the tips
and butts of corn broken off, and only
the middle used for seed. In fact, we
have done this ourselves, but this ex-
pertinent by DR.. Sturtevant taught us a
lesson on this subject. In most corn
with poorly fertilized blossoms there are
many ears impertectly filled out In
these the grains stand widely apart and
grow in fine shape. This corn, if it has
been thoroughly dried before freezing,
makes better seed than the handsome
ears that are generally selected. -BostOn

Milling Ont Orchards.

In almost every orchard are vacant
places caused by the death of trees first
set. If this happens the first year or
two, the vacant places may be filled, and
with little extra care the later-set tree
will be able to hold its own, and come
into bearing about as soon as its fellows.
But among older trees a vacant place
cannot so easily be filed. There seems
to be room enough, but there is not.
The tops may not intermingle by many
a yard, but close examination of the
soil shows that the roots of surrounding
'rees have interlaced throughout the
vacancy. Generally, if young tree is
set among a lot of older ones, the farmer
does his best to befriend it. He digs a
deep, wide hole, partly fills it with
manure, covers with dirt, and sets his
tree over it. If il lives, it is sickly,
precarious existence. All around it are
robber trees, whose roots started for this
rich foraging ground as soon as it was
placed there. They establish themselves
firmly under the little tree. Perhaps the
latter, after a desperate struggle of
few years, yields a little fruit. 1t is
natures effort to offset attempted de-
struction by an unnatural stimulation of
the means of reproduction. Much the
better course, if a vacancy occurs in the
is to fill the vacant place with
and omit the tree planting. Al
most all orchards are too crowded, and
an occasional vacancy is really an ad-
vantage. CUhiCdtor.

A Newsboy,s sagaelOus HeIpfnIness.

There is a minute newsboy down
Wall street way, says the New York SH,
who stands likely chance of owning
the street before he dies He stands close
be ,ide corner lamp letter box, with his
stock Of papers under his arm. The
busy merchants rush TO the box on their
way uptown, usually with the letters in
one hand and parcel, cane, or UNI
brela in the other. To lift the cover so
as to slip in the letter requires the use of
the other hand, and this involves some
inconvenience. But now steps up the
tiny philosopher and raises the cover,
the merchant slips the letter in, and then
he can scarcely have the face not to buy
the paper modestly held out by the little
helper.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Plant.Lioe and their Insect Enemie,

Plant-Lioe and their Insect Enemies
Two features in the life of plant-lice
nre the enormous rate at which they
multiply, and the suddenness with
which they sometimes disappear. The
cherry-trees may be black with them in
May, and in n month hardly a specimen
of them will be found. This welcome
riddance is due to their insect enemies.
A syphus maggot with pointed head,
says Mr.. A. J. Cook, of the Agricultural
College, Michigan, Just revels in plant
lice. IL seems never satiated, and it is
hard to understand how so small an in
sect can make so large a meal. The
lady-birds, and especially their Larvae or
grubs, do signal service in the same di-
rection. Several species of the genus
Aphidius of the ichneumon family, very
minute parasites, destroy the lice by the
thousands. Thus, plant-lice on outdoor
vegetation, which may threaten dire
mischief in the spring, are almost van
pushed before summer comes. In some
years, however, probably favored by
drought, the plant-lice live out of pro
portion, and succeed in spite of their
enemies, when they do most serious in
Jury. They are sometimes favored, too,
by misguided cultivators, who destroy
their enemies, mistakiug them for mis-
chievous insects. The aphides may be
destroyed by the kerosene and-soap
mixture, which consists of quarter of
pound of hard soap or a quart of soft
soap, and a quart of water, heated till
the soap is dissolved, to which pint OF
kerosene is added, and the whole agi.
tated till permanent emulsion or mkt.
ure is formed. 1t is applied with
force-pump of which some are made for
the purpose Silence HoBthly

Fodder Crops for Small Piece of
GrOund

Quite large quantity of feed can be
grown on a small lot. Cut oats when
just ripe, bind in small sheaves, allow to
stand in small shocks until the straw is
cured, then store away in the NOW to be
fed out in the bundle during the winter
months. They form an agreeable va
riety, and horse will eat them, straw
and all, with relish. After the oats,
early potatoes and other vegetables are
harvested, the ground may be sown to
millet which in a fair season will make
a large quantity of green feed. 1t
should all be cut and fed or converted
into hay before seed forms. After the
millet is harvested the ground may be
plowed and sown to rye, which will be
ready to cut for green feed in the spring
long before anything else. If the land
is not needed for other crops, follow the
rye with oats and the oats with millet.
If the soil is kept moderately rich, a
good crop of each is almost a certainty.
With this rotation an immense quantity
of green and dry horse-feed can be
cheaply grown on a small patch of land,
and there will be no chance for weeds
However small the lot some carrots
should be grown, to be stored in the
cellar for feeding in winter and early
spring. For this purpose the Half-long
Stump-rooted is best, as it grows to q
good size, yields heavily and is not diff
cult to harvest. 1t rarely pays to grow
corn for horse feed on small lot. Imms.

good feed for horses. es.-AmericdR Aqri.

THE SOITH'S MANUFACTURING AID.
VANTAGEH.

Some years ago Gov. Gordon sale
that in manufacturing the lower
grades of cotton goods. the southern
manufacturers had an advantage O
fully 10 per cent. over those of New
England. This statement was qurs.
toned at the time, but a Mr.. Hill
who for FIVE or six years has been
superintendent of the Eagle and
Phoenix mills at Columbus, receatly
said that he had become convinced
OF its correctness-in fact, that the
southern manufacturer has an adj
vantage OF as much as Is per cent.
In an interview in late issue of the
New York Graphic, Gov. Gordon
reiterates his statement, anil shows
the reasons for such an advantages.
1t is due, he says, to economic AMI
climatic causes.
In the first place. the cotton ia
manufactured whace it is gro w, and
this saves the mid ileman's cDm MIS-
sion, and it prevents wastage from
sanplings, and from other sources.
That the southern innate affe ts
the cost Of manufacturing cotton
goods is fact that the Eastern
manufacturers seem to finl some dit
fculty in grasping. 1t che opens
both mill power and labor. In what
way? The cheapest power for m II
purposes is water, an in the south
The water can be utilized at all .ea.
sons. Drouths rarely interfere, and
the rivers are never frozen. 1t is
not so in the East. There droughts
and cold compel the mills tn shut
Town. Therefore the manufacturers
nse steam, which means the erection
of expensive boilers, engines and
other appliances. In the south la
hor is cheaper. The homes OF labor
ers need not be so expensive; fuel
is cheaper; less clothing is required,
and food is not so costly. The east
ern laborers require more meat to
produce animal heat; the southern
laborer in summe. can subsist to
great extent on vegetables, which he
can himself raise. Gov. Gordon
SAYS it is not alone the price OF man s
labor which measures his remunera-
tion-it is also the cost of living :;
and while the southern mill hands
get less wages, they can really live
better than those Of the east.
The manufacturing growth of the
south in the last few years has been
very marked, and il was never more
so than last year. 1t is believed
that the present year will show even
= better record. With such advan
tages as the south possesses. what is
to hinder her from becoming a grea
manufacturing section?
