 Dear Sirs-About two months ago. on your re- commendation, bought bottle of Cuticura Re- solvent, one box Cuticura Salve and one cake of Cuticura Soap for my son, aged thirteen years who has been afflicted with eczema for long tine and am pleased to say that believe the remedies have cured him. His sufferings were intense, his head being nearly raw, his ears being gone except the gristle, and his body was covered with sores His condition frightful to behold. The sores have now all disappeared, his skin is healthy, eyes bright, cheerful in disposition and is working ev- cry day My neighbors are witnesses to this markabIe cure and the doubting ones are requested to call or write me- or any of my neighbors;

A Mysterious french Rifle.

We have had abundant evidence dur
ing the last few months of the pains
taken by the authorities to prevent the
secret of the "Lebel rifle" and its cart
ridges from falling into foreign hands.
Arrests have been made from time TO
time on the faintest suspicion of foul
play, and it is affirmed that officers have
been so careful that not single French
soldier knows the color of the powder
which he is using. The number of the
rifles and cartridges supplied to the diff
feIrent regiments has been accurately
noted down, aud not a day passes with
out scrupu Gus examination of the
stores. At intervals during the twenty
four hours the rifles are counted to as
certain that none are missing. Lists are
made of the cartridges dealt out to each
company; of those fired and of those re-
turned to the commanding officer after
the days work In short, if each cart
ridge was priceless diamond it could
not be kept with greater solicitude,
while, as for the rifles, one would almost
imagine that the fate + an empire de-
pended on their retention within the
walls Of the barracks. Frenchmen still
maintain that whatever the mishaps
which may have befallen other inven-
tions, no foreign government has yet
succeeded into the mysteries of Colonel
Lebel's masterpiece. They consider their
new rifle second to none in the world

Charity by Wholesale.

A ragged tramp entered a drug store

he was hungry to go over TO a neighbor-

some crackers and cheese, and he (the

FARM AND GARDEN,
Hot Water for Plants


II is fortunate circumstance that a
plant will endure a scalding heat that is
fatal to most Of its minute enemies.
Water heated to the boiling point,
poured copiously over the stem of an en-
feebled peach tree, and allowed to stand
about its collar, will often have the hap
piest restorative effects. Trees showing
EVERY symptom of the yellows have often
been rendered luxuriantly green and
thrifty again by this simple means. The
heat is presumably too much for the
fungus which had infested the vital
layers of the tree, Immediately under the
outer bark.
The London florists recommend hot
water, up to 145 degrees Fab, as a
remedy when plants are sickly, owing to
the soil souring-the acid absorbed by
the roots acting as poison. The usual
resort is to the troublesome job of re-
potting. When this is not necessary for
any other reason, it is much simpler to
pour hot water freely through the stirred
soil. 1t will presently come through
tinged with brown. After this thorough
washing, if the plants are kept warm,
new root points and new growth will
soon follow.
A lady friend had fine calla in a three
gallon pot, which showed signs of i'll
health. On examination the outer portion
of the filling was found mouldly, it
beng in large part fresh horse manure.
As repotting was sinconvenient, the plant
being in flower, hot water was freely used.
1t killed the mould, and the plant began
to revive and was soon all right - T,ck's

A Modern Solomon.

It has always been supposed that Solo
mon was the wisest man who ever lived,
but it looks now as if Mr.. p. Il. Barnum,
the Snowman, is worthy to wear the sage
kings crown. A Kentucky farmer recent
ly wrote the great Snowman that he had
"the only three-legged chicken in the
world" and would part with it for
$1,000. In the same mail, Mr.. Barnum
received letter from a Jersey farmer
who also claimed that he had "the only
three-legged chicken in the world" and
would sell it for $1,000 Mr.. Barnum
simply sent the Kentuckian's letter to
the Jerseyman and the Jerseyman's letter
to the Kentuckian. Could Solomon have
done any better in deciding this casel-

The Grasses.

For convenience the grasses may be
ranged in two general divisions: the
natural and the artificial. The first divi-
sion comprises all the true grasses or
plants with long, simple, narrow leaves,
and long sheath divided to the base
which seems to clasp the stem, or rather
through which the stem seems to pass.
The artificial grasses are mostly legum-
inOus plants with few others which
are cultivated and used like the grasses,
though they do not properly belong to
that family. The clovers Of all the va
rieties, the Alfalfa, ETC., belong to this
latter class. The timothy grass may
properly be placed at the head of all the
meadow plants for producing hay of the
finest quality. 1t is perennial in char
acter, and when we'll established lasts
several years without the necessity of
ploughing up and re.seeding. But
timothy is not good pasture grass from
the fact that it will not bear close crop
ping as well as many Others. Its chief
excellence consists in its production of
hay of the purest and finest quality for
all general purposes and especially for
horses, in which it has no rival. Wher
ever it fourishes it is universally pre-
ferred and sells for the highest price.
In general grasses should be cut not
long after the time of Towering, for al
though there is great deal of nOurish-
ment in the ripe seed it is hardly enough
TO make up for the loss in the stalks and
leaves, which are most valuable before
the soluble materials, such as starch, gum
and sugar, are gradually changed into
muddy fibre. Timothy is best adapted
TO partially moist, peaty or clayey soil,
and does not suit well on light sandy
lands When sown alone it should have
half a bushel of seed to the acre and may
be sown in the spring or fall, but the fal
sowing is the most common, and the seed
is better to be not more than one yea
old. A good way to test the vitality
of the seed is to sprinkle some on a no
fire shovel, when, if it mostly burns ul
without a lively popping, it should b.
rejected. Another good way TO test
ard other grass seeds, is 10 SOW a littl
in a box of fine earth, keep warm ant
damp for few days until their charac
ter is determined. Growing the Gro
for its seed is quite common in tn
Western States, aud Chicago is the lead
ing primary market. While, accOrdin
10 the definition given, red clover is not
strictly speaking, a grass, there IS n
one entitled TO higher rank unless
be timothy, and indeed, if we WEI
wholly restricted to the use Of only on
of the two, it would be a difficult matt'
TO say which the country could be-
spare. The great value of clover as

Pnrnsites nn Lire stock.

Colts, calves, and older stock are very
apt to be crowded with Objectionable
parasites. They best thrive upon poor
animals, and are supposed to be bred 10y
old, worn out, and miserable creatures.
However this may be, there is no doubt
that they find a suitable home in the
dirty matted hair in the late winter or
early spring months, and on asunny day
may be seen literally in millions, every
hair having nits upon it. One reason of
SO much rubbish accompanying them is
that in the course of their development
from the egg to the mature louise the skin
is cast several times.
To get rid of them is not always easy,
as the length of coat and accumulation
of dandruff or scurf makes a water
proof covering thatresists many remedies
which in themselves are certain destroy
ers if only brought into contact with
the parasites.
A sunny day should be chosen, and the
early part of it, when Doubtful wash
ing with soft soap and hot water should
be undertaken, so as to clear the skin of
grease aud dirt before applying the
remedy. Stavesacre is an eifectual de-
stroyer of lice if prepared by boiling
half pound with gallon of water
aud brushing well into the coat with a
hard brush.
Tobacco Juice is also much in request
for the purpose, and can be procured
from druggists at very low rate, as it is
imported now free of duty, or only q
nominal duty, and the old expensive
plan of boiling or infusing good shag
tobacco is not necessary. BY the way,
very few people avail themselves of the
governmental privileges of growing
sufficient tobacco for this and fumigat
ing purposes, though they might easily
do so. Z
Paraffin is sometimes used, but is very
dangerous remedy, occasionally being
absorbed and causing the death of the
animal, and not unfrequently causing a
blister, and much unnecessary pain, and
subsequent blemish.
There is another kind of louise from
which horses suffer. which, if once seen,
can never be forgotten-we refer to
poultry lousiness. 1t will sometimes
happen that horse stabbed with fowls
will become affected and literally tear
himself to pieces with them unless
promptly treated with one of the fore
going remedies, either of which is as
etfectual against these as against the
ordinary louise.
In washing or applying any remedy,
it should always be commenced near the
eyes and worked backward, as if any
other pan is adopted the besieged retreat
into the name and ears, and many escape
altogether, like the rats that are left just
to keep up the breed after the rat catcher
has gone.
1t is always well to repeat the dressing
and keep the animals moving about til
dry, or they may lick off more lotion
than is good for them, or stand about
and get chilled. - Chemist and Druggist.

There is little advantage IN relying on

badly after every rain. Animas may

where newly-sown grain is fed off. Th'
only use of spring grain for feed is go
by cutting as a soiling crop. For thi
purpose barley is preferable to oats. 1t

For cattle, especially for cows in milk,
where its dusty character is not especial
ly Objectionable, it is usually preferred
to timothy.
1t is said that moro than one hundred
species of clover arc known to natural
lists, but in this country only few are
cultivated, and Of these the common red
trifolium pratense is the species most
generally in use and for general pur-
poses the best of all. It is easily grown
on every properly drained soil Soils
too much exhausted or too poor to
afford it nutriment naturally, by the use
of a coat of barn yard manure to give it
a foothold, can, by its persistent use, be
brought up to condition of fertility
beyond any that can be obtained from
sowing any of the natural grasses. In
furnishing vegetable mould and changing
hard, compact soils for the better it is
wholly unexcelled.
Red clover is one of the most i'm
portant crops for soiling on account of
its rapid early growth and the large
amount of excellent green food grown on
an acre. Care must be taken when pas
turing it while wet with dew or rain, as
cattle are liable to eat so much as TO
cause bloating, sometimes causing death.
1t is wholly unsafe to turn them, when
quite hungry, into a large growth of it
to eat their fill at any time until it has
been partially eaten down and they have
become accustomed 10 its use. Red
clover is not really pasture plant, and
its best results are realized by soiling or
cutting for hay and seed. 1t is usually
best sown in spring, with from twelve to
twenty pounds to the acre, according as
the soil may be loan or clay. Glover
should be cut as soon as the blossoms
assume n brownish hue, and the swath
should lie until well wilted, when it
should be turned over, but not scattered
or spread, and when sufficiently dry be
taken to the barn. Great care should
be taken not to let it get caught out un-
protected in the rain. -NeiO York World.
