at the union Misrepresentation, although
cheer after cheer arose from the denseiy-
packed pOpulace, there was one voice that
reached the Generals ear and moved him
TO the extent that he slightly arose and
gave to its owner a personal nod OF
appreciation. II came from The lungs
OF a veteran who had not chosen to fall In
with his comrades, but, perched up In a
window. he cried out, 'Good-bye, General,
and God bless yOu." Simple as were his
words. coming, as they did. from heart
that had borne the brunt of battle, they
struck responsive chord in the Generals
memory and brought from him a recogni-
tiOn of the farewell sincerity of a COmrade.
As the carriages neared the Union Station,
they passed through open ranks formed by
the veterans and the legislators. and,
reaching the main entrance, the party was
hailed with round after round of enthusi-
astic cheers.

Without mourning much additional
expense, q barn may have pleasing ex-
terror instead of an awkward and heavy
form. In addition to its general sym
metry, which may nearly always accord
with convenience, a few small particu-
lars added at the proper places may con-
tribute much to its appearance, Coun-
try Gentleman calls attention in this
connection to the decorative effect of
small hoods over the doors and windows,
and properly projecting caves. Asa mat
ter of utility these will be worth more
than their cost. The hoods will be pro-
lection of the windows in some degree
against storms ard prevent rain from
being driven inside, and the projecting
caves will answer a similar purpose and
protect the walls outside. They will
both serve to stiffen the building by af-
fording additional bracing. They will
possess another distinct advantage. The
owner will not feel compelled to hide
his barns and outbuildings from view
because they are repulsive objects. Par
TALLY hid by trees, they will convey the
impression to the spectator of home con-
veniences and rural comforts.

Now the great trouble with the av-

these things closely enough. He does
not skim the milk properly, and the

no doubt that he has lost 5000 pounds of

ripening his cream properly. He would
get his cream partially ripened, put his
sweet cream in and let the whole ripen.
By repeated experiments he found by
these means he had been losing about 10
per cent. of his butter. By ripening his

seed is sown, and in March liberal sup

Until the last few years all the wood
ashes made on the farm were leached to
produce I've for soft soap, and my mo-
Their always insisted upon having half
busllel of lime mixed with ashes in the
leach to produce lye strong enough to
bear up an egg, and in selecting ashes
for the leach, if any had become damp,
they were discarded as unfit and were
mixed with last years leached ashes
and applied on the farm, usually where
corn was to be planted, and always with
good results. The lime put in the leach
will show itself in the soil many years
afterwards. have plowed up lime with
a few ashes distinguishable that my ia
Their put on twenty years before, and
never had poor crop where they were
put. 1t was on stony ground that could
not be so thoroughly titled as freer soil,
consequently lasted longer. Some ten
years ago planted corn on a field that
had poor spot in which nothing of any
amount would grow. No one could tell
why.
Before planting took the ashes from
the last years leach and spread them
over this poor place, then spread stable
manure over it the same as the rest of
the field. The corn grew larger on that
poor spot where the ashes were than on
any other part of the field. The next
year the oats were failure on that spot;
they grew up a little, half headed, fell
down and died. The crop of rye follow
ing and all other crops since, even the
grass, have been better on that spot than
any other in the field, but there were too
much ashes for oats the first year.

The fertilizing value of fine bone is
much greater than that of coarse bone.
The latter may lie in the ground for
years while very fine bone is readily
dccomposed and taken up by plants.
The improved condition and increased
value of our bone manures is to some
extent a result of the action of this
station, which in the year 1879 first
carried into effect the method of valu-
alton based on the mechanical as well
as the chemical analysis. Nitrogen in
the finest bone is now worth IS! cents
per pound, while that in the coarsest
bone is valued only at s. cents, and
phosphoric acid is valued at and 4
cents in the two grades respectively.
Very finely ground bone is, at present,
one of the cheapest sources of quickly
available nitrogen and phosphoric acid

figure represents the form and structure
of a common window hood, which should
be made of two inch plank to give it

The authority quoted calls to mind the
fact that barns such as are here depicted
may be built of rough or unplaned lum-
Der, taking care to give the right form.

Complete NIanures.

A complete" manure, as the name
suggests, is complete not only in the
sense of supplying the three most i'm
portant plant food ingredients, viz, nj
trogen, phosphoric acid and potash, but
also in furnishing all the plant food in
gradients in forms adapted to use on all
soils. A complete manure is among
chemical fertilizers what the best stable
manure is among farm manures-name-
ly, it supplies all the necessary plant food
ingredients, being unlike a plain super
phosphate or any other one incomplete

Ways of Killing Trees.

One correspondent advises muriatic
acid. Another recommends boring a
hole at the base of the tree and filling
crude kerosene, covering up the hole to
keep the rain out This, he asserts, will
kill tree and roots so there will be no
sprouting. Another recommends boring
small holes and applying a few drops of
pure carbolic acid.

These remarks are in part illustrated
by the outline figures in the first cut.
One figure represents a common barn
with no pretension to ornament or SYM
metry. The other figure shows one of
nearly the same general form, but with
broad caves and window hoods added,
with comparatively little additional cost.
The ventilator combines utility and ap-
pearance. This may represent carriage
house and horse barn; or it may be a

A GOOD MAN GONE.

The other day we received a postal card
announcing the death of Frederick Ger
hard. at Weehawken. n. j. That means,
the loss to the world of a good man. one
who loved his fellow mOrtals and labored
deep into the twilight of old age to elevate
mankind and ameliorate the sufferngs of
the unfortunate. He was a man OF deep
learning and broad understanding and was
an author of considerable prominence. One
OF his books lies before us, The Coming
Greed of the World. which has been widely
read and highly commended by many prom
inent thinkers. He was powerful oppo-
nent of capital punishment and his argu-
ments against it are the most forcibIe we
ever read. At The time of his death he
was collecting inform alton concerning cases
of false imprisonment with the purpose of
laying 1t before the legislature of his state
hoping to secure the passage of a law pro-
viding for the compensation of those dis
covered to have been wrongfully convicted
and imprisoned. There is something I'M
commonly noble in man who thus labOrs
unselishly on the threshold of the grave to
make the journey of life smoother for those
who are to follow, even the most lowly.
He was subscriber TO our prison paper
from the very start and has sent many ell
cOuragng words of advice which have full
filled their purpose. and now his numerous
letters will be gathered together. tied up
and laid away. We never saw Frederick
Gerhard. but we know that he was good
man. for bad men do not take an unseltish
interest in the welfare of strangers. as he

covered by which the convict can be made

of his prosecution and the amount of dam

be a law made to compel the criminal to
pay the cost of prosecution by his. labor in
prison, for by such law it would often
happen that the lesser crime would neces-
sarily be visited with the greater penalty.
And to make law compelling the criminal
to reimburse his victim would be putting a
premium upon perjury. for whenever a
man was robbed it would be to his pecun-
larry interest to claim greater loss than
sustained. 1t would never do to trust HUI

worse condition of things than ever existed

vOuchsafe to inform him of the nature of
the charge under which we are held, but if 4
we went into details. it is quite likely that
we would tale unfold, which might from
the very manner OF its relation. cause our
auditor to labor under the impression that
we were here through no fault of our own;
we might bring forward excuses without

as possible of the direct responsibility of

early training 1.-The other fellow" all are
pressed into the service. and so often are
they made to do duty in relieving us of our
burden of sin. that we finally come to look
upon ourselves as very much abused indi-
vIdualS. But in this we do not differ so
much from mankind in general. there are
few men who err but will seek for some ex-
cuse for 80 doing. and SO it has been from
the very beginning. The first recorded
violation OF law occurred i'm the garden of
Eden, and Adam and Eve were the trans
gressOrs: when called to account Adam
placed the responsibility upon Eve who,
as quickly transferred it to the serpent, and
so it has continued down through the gen.
eratl0ns until the present day. That there
are numerous circumstances which impel
men to the commission of crime, we who
have Sinned and suffered, know to our sOr-
row and cost. but many of them are of our
own making. and if we deliberately turn
aside. or allow ourselves to be led from the
straight and narrow path. we are to blame
and should place the responsibility where it
belongs. We have ample time here for
self-examinatiOn OF retrospective nature,
we can readily ascertain our besetting sin,
the rock upon which we were wrecked;
and il we desire to arise from the degrada-
tiOn into which we have fallen, we must
abandon the cowardly policy of placing the
blame upon others which properly apper-
tains to ourselves. TAMMANY
