Chinese Progress.

It is not easy to determine whether we should rejoice at Chinese progress or regret it, for the waking up of the vast Mongolian masses means the precipita- tion of an overplus upon the Aryan world that we do not yet know how to deal with. However, it is certain that China will soon be practically modern state. The conservative element is eff fectually overcome and railway con- struction has been entered on as a nation al policy. Pelking is at once to be joined to Tien Tsin by road passing through the most populous districts of the em- pire. The radicals or reformers are at last entirely triumphant, and China will adopt every means for development. It will be impossible to exist on the same planet under a system of mutual ex- cIusion.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Added a Provfso,

An old vag, who has been in the habit of calling on certain business man on Grisw old street for dimes, was asked the other day how much he would take to keep away for all future time. He thought for a moment and then replied; "Give me fifty cents and I'll never bother you again."
 'I'n do it. Here-let me draw up a writing to that effect"
 An agreement was drawn up and the vag read it over and laid it down with the remark;
 "I can't do it. There's something cold blooded about that" g
 "But you agreed to-"
 "Yes, know; but think of man selling his manhood for fifty cents! I'd starve frstn
 "Well, how much do you wantf"
 "A dollar"
 ''Tn split the difference with you"
 "Well, I'll sign, but I want a proviso inserted that do not hereby lose my self respect, and that do not forfeit the right to come up stairs and strike the man in the next room if get hard up. !"
 It was added, and he signed and went of to strike free lunch counter.-De- troit Free Press.

There Is a Difference.

There was jolly little group about table in a down town cafe last night shaking dice for the lemonade. The man who threw the lowest number had to pay for the lemonade and tell story. All at the table had been "stuck" but one gentleman who is noted for his keenness of repartee. The gentlemen who had been ''stuck" told nothing but anecdotes and antique tales, Not new story had been recited; and they were all chest nuts. When the gentleman noted for rep artee had been ''stuck" there was ap- plause, call for drinks and a demand for new story. T can tell a story" said the gentleman, as he ordered the proper thing, ''but I'll ask you conun- drum. ''Go ahead" he was told. "Wen," he went on, "what is the differ ence between a turkey and man?"
 This odd conundrum foored the crowd. The questioner was appealed to for an answer. 1.-The difference between turkey and man," he explained, as he rose to leave, "is that turkey isn't stuffed with chestnuts until it's dead" Y"
 The crowd comprehended.-Cincinnati Commercial.

A Marine Hero,

Among the inmates of the National Soldiers home at Togus, Me, is Richard Rowley, who was captain of the guns on the Kearsarge when she sunk the Ala bama off the harbor of Cherbourg, France, and performed an act of bravery which probably saved his ship and her crew. The battle had ragged for over an hour and half, when a 100 pound rife shell from the Alabama struck the gun which Rowley was sighting and fell on the deck, with the fuse still burning. In an instant Rowley picked it pand threw it into the sea, where it exploded just as it touched the water. Tho sailors beard and mustache were burned off by the fuse, but he stepped back to his gun and sent a shot into the sinking Alabama.
 Capt. Winslow at once gave the order to man the rigging and give three cheers for Quartermaster Rowley. The latter was greatly lionized after his return to this country. Congress voted him gold medal; he received other valuable gifts, and President Lincoln personally thanked him. For several days before his inter view with the president, Rowley had ac, cepted frequent invitations to drink champagne, and probably showed the effects. As he arose to go MT. Lincoln gave him a hundred dollars saying "Now don't drink too much liquor drink just a little. but not too much.
 know you old sailors all like little grog but be careful and not drink too much.

Remedy for Cut Worms.

Some farmers protect cabbage plants from the ravages of cut worms by wind ing piece of paper or bark or bit of burdock leaf around the plants when set. The cut worms work on the surface of the soil or directly beneath it, and when they come to the article which en- velops the plant, will go in search of something more palatablc. We have al ways succeeded in keeping them away by using 8 small quantity of saltpeter water around each plant An ounce of saltpeter dissolved in teacupful of hot water is sufficient to inlpregnate two gal Ions of water. A gill of this solution poured around each hill an inch or SC from the plant is sufficient, or has al ways proved so with us. It is an inex pensive remedy and easily applied American Cultivator.

Treatment of Lambs.

Spr1nkle little salt on the lamb so the mother will be induced to lick it. To make a eve take another lamb after she has lost her own, tie the skin of the lat ter on the "adopted" youngster. If at any time the lamb is weak and sickly give it half a spoonful of hogs lard. Re peat the dose in half an hour if no bet ter, as this cuts all phlegm, makes breathing more easy and gives strength and tone to the system. But of all things there is nothing like sunshine for young lambs, as this gives them more strength and growth than anything else. Should they get chilled at any time give them some rum with a little asafetida dissolved in it. Manure should not be allowed to accumulate in the barn, as the gases arising from it are very unhealth- ful. It is one of the most prolific causes of bad outcome with pregnant ewes failure of milk disowning of lambs shedding of wool and perhaps death. We would say, in conclusion, that there arc but three short periods each year tha sheep require any extra attention-tha
 is, breeding season, lambing time anC
 weaning time.

Echoes from Agricultural Stations.

In New Hampshire Experiment sta tion's test ninety-five pounds of mixed milk run through the separator yielded cream that made just as much butter as 100 pounds set in shallow pans.
 Several of the stations are making comparative tests of the various appli- ances used in raising cream. Tests of the various churns will follow. The New Hampshire station started this movement.
 A case of black rot in large vineyard was attributed by member of the an nual meeting of the Western New York Horticultural society to the use of barn yard manure, the ammonia from the new manure being thought to injure the new canes.
 Seed clover is, year after year, one of the most profitable crops of the farm, where the conditions are favorable to its growth. The crop of the country is never so large as to glut the market.

The English Language.

English men of letters are perpetually scolding and nagging at one another for speaking and writi English, or for pronouncing it erroneu, J. and the fault finders make, as a rule, as many mis- takes as do the writers and speakers whom they profess to correct. And then step in. forsooth, the Americans, clad from top to toe in the shining armor Of self confidence, and they airily tell us that we know not how to speak or pro nounce our own language, and that to mend our ways we should take lessons of BostCnites or the Dutch-lrish- Eng fish and altogether cosmopolitan people of New York We may needs vince little under these strictures, for our withers are net by any means unwrung, and to the ear of foreigner who has made only literary study of English 1t is certain that our pronunciation, or rather our many and discordant methods of pronunciation, must appear very H. logical and very ludicrous.
 It is not alone clergymen who drawl the church service and humble their sermons; it is not alone school children who are taught to read in monotonous sinr-song; it is not alone young ladies who, through affectation, lisp or mince their words, but it is the great body of English people--aye, of educated Eng fish Deople-who habitually stammer be- fore they can find tho right word, who rarely pronounce their final consonants, who slur and shuttle their syllables into one another, who almost invariably put the wrong emphasis on the chief mem bers of phrase, and who, if they do not absolutely chew and swallow the ends oi their vocables, as the modern Greeks do utter them in such disjointed and slip shod fashion as to make them more thar half unintelligible to the foreign ear This is why it may be quite feasible fol a Frenchman to live seventeen years II England without being able to under stand English.

SECTIONAL VIEW OF STORAGE ROOM The point aimed at is to prevent con densation in the storage room by com pletely isolating the ice chamber above, so that we may conduct the warm, moist and foul air away from the storage room and dash it upon large body of ice, which will condense the foul moisture, contract the volume of air and permit the heavy, dry, cold air to tumble down into storage room, where 1t will dis place and force above the ice quantity of moist, warm air, to be condensed as before, thus keeping up constant cur rent of air, which will pick up any moisture in the room and conduct it to the ice to be condensed.
 The cut is a sectional view of the stor- age room (A) and ice chamber (B). The building, or complete room, must be sur rounded by nonconducting space beneath the floor and over the ceiling, as well as at the side and end walls; then on the ioist which some would cover with zinc, lay an air tight wood floor co from end to end of the building, but let it lack one foot or less of coming to the wall at either side, and let the floor incline to one side about one inch in ten feet to secure proper drainage.
 On this floor place strips two or three inches high directly over the joist; put cross strips between these strips to form pockets of dead air. On this lay another tight floor; on the more elevated edge or side of the floor erect double wall CD, twith confined air between) to within one or two feet of the ceiling of the building, and extending from end to end of building. Cover the floor and few inches of the walls around it with a wei soldered tin floor, and immediately paint it.
 At the lower edge of the floor, where the cold air tumbles off, place cave spouting to carry drainage to a conduct
 ing pipe which may pass through tht
 wall to the outside of building and ter
 minate near the bottom of some vesse
 that will bring the overflow of wate above the end of pipe, and thus form al
 air trap. At either side of storage room hinge boards (B B wide enough to clos
 up the inlet and outlet of air. The in gress of cold air can thus be adjusted t ,, hold the temperature of the room at an i desired degree.

THE PEACH WILLOWS.
Two of the Leading Symptoms of th'
 True Disease.

Two of the Leading Symptoms of the
 True Disease.
 The literature of peach yellows is a medley of contradictions. All sorts ot views have been formulated and many theories have been built on a very slen- der basis.
 Among the facts believed to be well established are:
 That vellows has been confounded with other diseases of the peach, espe- cially in New Jersey, where the torer and root appis are very prevalent. That genuine peach yellows appeared in the vicinity of Philadelphia prior to 1791. Since that time this country has never been entirely free from this disease. That it was prevalent on the Atlantic coast long before it appeared in the west. That it has extended northeast, north and northwest much more rapidly than south. That it is now more or less prev alent from Massachusetts to Georgia and westward to Lake Michigan and the Mis- 1 sissippi. That the disease spreads from i centers, usually appearing first in locall- l ties thickly set with orchards. That the first cases of yellows in any district are usually in young trees imported from infected localities; and everywhere it is ! the same destructive malady.
 There are two leading symptoms of true peach yellows, of which premature ripening of the fruit is first in the order of time. The more violent the attack the more early and numerous will be the prematures. A second symptom is the striking out of unnatural shoots from tho main branches and sometimes from thC stem of the tree. These are long anC slender, and usually issue from the uppe side of the branch. They have sickl. look, though tough and elastic.
