TIE Invention of Printing.

As we stated last month, N. rAb1e
Requin thinks he can prove that the germ
of printing existed at Avignon in 1444.
1t seems that a certain Procope Valid
foghel, silversmith, native of Prague,
went to reside at Avignon on July 4,
1444, that he manufactured types and
taught the "artifcial writing" to five
workmen, whose names were as follows:
Girard Ferrose, DAWN de Caderousses
Georges de Ia Jardine, Manuad Vitalis
and Arnaud de Coselhac. 1t is further
proved that he loaned to the above named
vitalis two alphabets in steel, two iron
forms, a steel screw, forty molds in tin,
and other articles. In coming from
Prague to Avignon did Yaldfoghel pass
by Strasburg and discover the secret of
Gutenberg2
NJ. rAbbe ReQuin, who communicated
these particulars to the Congress Of So
cietes Savantes, recently held in Sor-
bonnie, Paris, says one may now affirm
that a printing works existed in 1f44 at
Avignon, that this town comes imme.
diately after Strasburg, and that France
is the first country where the new art
was spread; for Avignon is none the less
a part Of France for being under the
jurisdiction of the popes.
What appears now to be clearly shown
is that Procope valdfoghel, of Prague,
resident of AvignOn, was acquainted with
the principles Of of the typographical art
from the year 1444; but it IS not demon
strated that he succeeded completely in
exercising this art and producing books
written artifcially," to use an ex-
preston often employed by the notarios
of Avignon.
NJ. rAbbe Requin is to be congratu-
lated On the results of his researches.
which henceforth will find place in all
the works relating to the discovery Of
printing. He is advised to prepare a
complete and accurate edition of all the
documents in which ProcOpe Valdfoghel
and his associates figure. The publica-
ton of these texts is indispensable for
the discussions which they cannot fail to
excite.

documents so far discovered in a small
brochure published by NJ. Alphonse
Picard, Rue Bonaparte, Paris, under the
title "L'Imprimerie a Avignon en- 1444."

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
LENGTH OF TREE ROOTS.

The mistake of many people in ma
,uring trees is to place the fertilizer as
near the trunk as possible. This is
gery much like feeding man held in
upright position by placing the food
oear his feet More frequently, how
ever, the manure is spread as far as the
branches extend from the trunk. The
feeding roots of large trees are mainly
much farther from their trunk than their
branches. Bury some dead animal three
or even four rods from an apple tree In
full bearing, and within year or two
roots will extend this distance and find
the fertilizer they need. In most or
chards tree roots interlace each other, and
this crowding is one reason why the
trees are so often unproductive. 1t re-
quires extra high feeding in such cases
to keep the trees vigorous enough to be
fruitful. If every other tree were cut
out the result in many cases would be
more and better fruit than now on those
left standing.-Boston CultioGtOr.

The Pin and the Bird.

A lady at Saratoga Springs, N. Y,
visiting Walnut street residence q few
days since, was attracted to a beautiful
canary bird by its close resemblance to
one she had last spring. She was in
formed that the songster had come to
them, they finding it one chilly morning
perched upon window-sill. The lady
stated that the bird had been Taught to
perform the pretty little feat, when given
its liberty in a room, of picking up a pin
and sticking it in the carpet. The cage
door was opened and as the canary few
forth the lady threw pin out in tho
centre Of the floor. The bird imme-
diately few down to where it lay, caught
it in its bill, dexterously stuck it in a
perpendicular position in the carpet,
after which it hoped of a step or two
and warbled forth some of its sweetest
notes, as If in exultation at the feat it
had accomplished. It was her long lost

ThB Advantage of Presence OF Mind in an
Emergency.
During the lats strike on the New York
Central Railroad the militia were ordered
to be in readiness in case OF riot, but they
were not called ont.
In an interview Gov. Hill sal Sle troops
were not to be called upon except in case Of
an emergency. The emergency bad not
arisen. therefore they would not be ordered
out. He remarked that this was the first
great strike with which he had had exOerl-
ence. aud be did not propose 10 loso his head;
the only point at which there had been serious
trouble was at Syracuse, aud there deputy
sheriff had lost his head and precipitated an
encounter.
The strike continued several weeks AMI
there was riotous action at various points
along tho road, but the civil authorities we're
able to cope with it without calling on the
militia.
The test OF a mans real ability comes when
IN emergency arises which makes a hasty
call on MS good judgment and discretion.
The man who retains his presence OF mini,
retains his equipoise and exercises sound
discretion at sucu critical junctures is to be
relied on and will be put to the front.
Men with level heads have the staying
qualities which do not falter IN the face Of
danger. Otis A. Cole OF Kinsman, o., June

ENsILAGE FOR PIGS.

Experiments in feeding ensilage to
pigs were made at the New York Sta
ton at Geneva, extending over a period
of about five months. The ensilage was
finely cut and made from corn ripe
enough for husking. The following
points have been cleaned from the
bulletin, giving the experiments in de-
tail.
At first some Of the pigs would not
cat enough from the eusilage alone to
make any gain unlessfed such very large
amount that it was simply rooted over
for the pieces of corn on the cob, which
were at all times first eaten. The ensi-
lage was never all swallowed even
when fed in very small quantities, al
though after the grain had been eaten
out the remainder was cbewed. All Of
the pigs were given nearly enough bran
and middlings for sustenance, and some
were fed as much cnsilage in addition as
they could eat or chew over, while others
were fed at the same time, in contrast,
corn on the cob.
The results show that with ensilage
rated as low as 81 per ton the gross cost
for production of pork was considerably
more than its market value, when the
proportion of ensilage was about seventy
per cent. of the ration.
When corn took the place of part OF
the ensilage, the ensilaga forming an av-
erage Of forty-four per cent. of the total
food, the gross cost of the pork, with
ensilage rated no higher than 81 per
ton, was about the same as where no en-
silage was fed.-NeO York World.

HOW TO EARTH CELERY.

For home use and in small quantities,
the better way is to earth celery q
row at a time. The reason Of this is that
celery, once bleached thoroughly, while
the earth is warm and sun hot, is apt to
rust II rot taken up and used. Among
market men, a certain portion is earthed
up, and when ready sent to market.
Hence they have under process all the
time portion fit for market, with more
on the way. It is always best, when the
celery is nearly full grown, to keep
enough soil down about the plants to
prevent the stalks from spreading.
That intended for fall use will require
earthing some two or three weeks before
it is fit for use. This, however, entirely
depends upon the condition oil the atmOs-
phere. In hot weather, a couple of weeks
will bleach it perfectly. In the cold days
OF ldtl, uOuDlO tuC tAuAO may 10 ASSCooN e
That intended for late winter and spring
use keeps better not too we'll bleached
when put away for winter. Hence that
planted latest and small is selected for the
purpose. Before earthiDg, the loose
leaves and suckers are best pulled of, so
as to leave all clear, straight stalks. Then
again, in the earthing some care is neces-
sary to keep soil from the heart of the
plant, so az to leave the center free pas
sage for the new growth.
For small quantities, this is aided by a
loose band Of some tying material, which
can be slipped up as the growth pro.
ceeds.
One other thing, never earth up while
the dew or rain has wetted up the stalks.
Dig only as wanted for use. Celery loses
much of its crispness if exposed long to
the weather. -Prairis Farmer.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.


Bad signs-weedy fence corners.
Do not bruise fruit in gathering.
Place bees in winter quarters early.
There is more profit in feeding young
animals than cid ones.
Prepare the bees for winter aud see
that all stocks are in condition to rear
young bees for winter.
The larger the animal, the larger must
be the sustenance ration, which must be
deducted from the feed before the profit
begins.
c. P. Goodrich, at Wisconsin insti-
tute, said; II think as good a grain ra-
ton as sou can get for COWS is one-third
bran, one-third ground oats, and one
third coin meal, all by weight, about
twelve to fourteen pounds to each COW
daily"
Chickens intended for breeding stock,
says an authority, should not be pushed
too fast or overfed; a steady, even de-
velopmentis preferable. Remember the
chick is made of what it eats. No mat
ter how fine the stock may be from, i'm
proper care will make them in few gen.
erations no better than the mixed breeds
Of the farm.
An experienced poultry keeper very
truly says, in some respects Matching is
lottery. II you are experienced in han
ding eggs by testing them after several
days incubation, the question OF whether
they are fertile or not may be deter
mined. This is not all, however. The
egg may be fertile and still not hatch,
owing to certain conditions governing
the process OF incubation. An equal and
uniform heat, as well as moisture is
needed.
