In an indirect but malignant attack upon

compares with his celebrated poem on the
dulness OF the Argus this livelior Quatrain.
composed by the editor Of a newspaper in AL

"This world 10 all aeetnE show,
And soon grim death will Jerk US;
But lots be happy as We 10.
And all enjoy the circus"
The Georgia poem is livelier. but is 1t truly
greater than Mayor MANNIHG's masterpiece?
Tho Argus is 4 thing Of beauty,
And Joy forever as well:
It's really quite solemn duty
To read 1t where'er you dwell"
The difference of motive is the eternal diff
ference between pessimism and optimism.
The editor In Albany. Georgia advises his
readers to go to the circus; the editor in Al
bany New York, advises his fellow citizens to

FARM NOTES.

SUBsOIL PLOwISG.-Nery much has
been said and written on the advsntag-
IS to be derived from breaking up the
hard, compact subsoil underlying the
stratum cultivated. Commonly, sub
soils will be found lacking in the ele-
ments OF fertility and bringing them 10
the surface will usually be found detri-
mental than otherwise. Where there
has been q continuous shallow plowing
or the surface soil for years slightly
deeper plowing will add TO the feeding
area of the plants, but unless the sur
face soil Is itself rich it must be accom-
panied by liberal manuring- AS the
great bulk of the roots of our cultivated
plants grow naturally near the surface,
It seems 10 me that subsoilIng for the
purpose of increasing the feeding area
Is not of sufficient Importance to pay the
expense; we must look somewhere else
for its benefits If il has enough to rec
ommend II for general adoption. 1t Is
now coming TO be pretty well under
stood that when a crop has carried of
from a soil OF moderate fertility the
plant food that has been used up In its
production il must be supplied from an
outside source and cannot be obtained
simply by deep plOwing, whether the
subs oil is brought to the surface or SIM
ply stirred up and left in Its place. 80
far sS my own observation and little
experience go, the advantages of sub
soIling mainly consist IN aifording adj
ditional storage for water that may be
drawn upon by the roots OF plants IN
seasons OF drought; and in season OF ex-
cessive moisture the Subso.ling may IL
self be injurious.

Culture OF Fssus.

TO SOFTEN HARD WATER.

When, as is most commonly the
case, this hardness is due to the pres
ence of large proportions of the car
Donates of lime and magnesia, it can be
recognized by the extent to which the
water becomes turbid, or forms whitish
scum or incrustations when boiled
Boiling, then. is one of the means for
softening waters that are hard and
.'curdle the soap" from this cause, and
this fact Is well known to ohousekeepers,
but owing to the inconvenience of the
application of this remedy it Is rarely
resorted to except for drinking water.
For this purpose boiling has the special
and additional advantage of Insuring
the destruction of any minute germs of
sease that might cOntaminate the
water.
To soften water for wa hing, use car
donate of soda (''salsods") in sufficient
quantity to bring down the lime and
magL esIs, and thus insure proper solu-
ton of the soap to form suds. There
is too often a mistake made in not al
lowing time for the soda to bring down
the lime and magnesia IN q powdery
form, which requires from half an hour
TO an hour when the water is cold, but
occurs very quickly when the water is
hot. When, as Is commonly done, the
soap is put into the water while the
lime is still in the gelatinous form and
diffused in the water, a certain amount
of ''curdling" will still happen, and the
WASHED clothes especially fannels) will
have that soggy and unpleasant touch
which is caused by the accumulation of
the lime and magnesia soaps in them
That 1t is undesirable to use soda for
.oftening water to be used for drinking
hardly needs more than mention. The
natural hard waters usually contain
quite as much of saline matters as is
desirable IN drinking water. Soda,
however, does not in any manner cor
rect the sanitary condition of water; on
the contrary, it aids in keeping vege-
table and animal matters In solution,
and unless added In very large excess
does not interfere with the vitality of
fungus or other germs.-Sclccted.

DR.. Frdncfs D5,1ltng. in an Interest
ing paper read before the Academy OF
Medicine, Cincinnati, says that there
Is much more deafness In America
than in Europe, and this the doctor
attribu' es to Il more general use of
scientific instruments, such as tele-
phOLes, wien one ear is used to the
exclusion of the other. He cited &
number OF cases where he had exam
ined telephone operators, and he gen.
orally found the right ear the weaker
organ, as IL was used almost entirely in
telephone communication. 4 remedy
WAS TO use both ears. Either have two
au'Hphones or alternate the ears.
He also states that between the ages
II 10 and A. ut least one person In
three Is subject to partial deafness.
The great majority OF cases of im-
paired hearing date from childhood
and IFS diseasos. Another proliH o
cause was colds and carelessness in
bathing. At least one-fifIh of the
Gases of Impaired hearing are heredi-
tary, and are largely owing to too
close consanguinity of the parents.
Deafness is more prevalent among
males than females, owing to the fact
that the male Is more exposed 10 the
viciSsltudes OF climate.

We are accustomed TO be told that
the most impure water will be rendered
pure by boiling, and that in this We
have an absolute safeguard against the
danger OF water containing disease
germs. Now while it is true that boil
ing Will kill the germs Of disease, yet
the fact has been brought II our notice,
says Annals of Hygiene. by SO high an
authority as DIR. Chas. NJ. Cresson, that
while boiling kills the germs of par
ticular disease, 1t yet, In reality, rem
ders the water more impure than IL
was before, because by the very death
of these germs, dead organic matter IS
allowed to remain in the water, Which
is polluted by putrefactIon. Hence,
while boiling is q most excellent pre-
caution against the occurrence OF ty-
phoid fever or similar diseases, when
we have occasion TO think that the
germs of these diseases exist in the
water that We drink, yet We must re-
member that this boiling does not purify
the water; it simply removes from it the
specific powder TO produce specilic
dlsea e.

MAKING PORK TOO FAT.-The evil
OF overwhelming pork is less common
than II used TO be. Two reasons have
combined to make lean meat more pop
ular. The doctors taught that Il WAS
more healthful aud nutritious than tile
fat, and about the same time the use OF
other oils decreased the price Of lard so
that excessive fat pork WAS neither prof
liable nor needed. The change IN ways
OF feeling has also had something to do
With making pork more wholesome.
CJIn Is no longer the exclusive food
even for fattening. The best practice
now is 10 feed the TatiOus that Will
