Animal Worship.

Among primitive peoples all animals
are supposed to be endowed with souls,
which in many cases have formerly ami
mated human beings. Hence a likeness
is often recognized between an animal
and some deceased friend, and the
animal is addressed as the person would
have been, and honored with a kind of
worship. Many tribes call themselves by
the name of and even derive their pedi-
gree from some animal. Its cries be-
come the omens of the tribe, and thus
originate the divination and augury of
more civilized nations. In the modern
world the most civilized people among
whom animal worship vigorously survives
lie within the range of Brahminism.
Here the sacred COW is not merely to be
spared; she is rs deity worshiped and
bowed to daily by the pious Hindoo.
silva is incarnate in Hanuman, the
monkey god, The divine king of birds,
Garuda, is Nishnu's vehicle, and the
forms of fish and boar and tortoise
assumed in the avatar legends of Vishun.
Perhaps no worship has prevailed more
widely than that of the serpent. 1t had
its place in Egypt and among the
Hebrews; in Greece and Rome; among
the Celts and Scandinavians in Europe
in Persia and India; in China and
Thibet; in Mexico and Peru, and in
Africa, where it still flourishes as the
state religion in Dahomey Brooklyn

FODDER CORN.

Weeds are hardly less injurious in
corn intended for fodder than in that
grown mainly for the grain. In both
cases the object must be to get as large
growth of stalk as possible. The larger
the stalk is the richer and sweeter X be-
comes. If there is room and light this
sweetness is changed to the starch of the
grain. But as fodder corn is always
sown or drilled more thickly than that
for grain, If the season is unfavorable it
is injured all the more by tho presence of
weeds. Fodder corn that does not tassel
is scarcely worth harvesting, as COWS will
only eat it when forced to do SO by
hunger, and then fall off in flesh or milk
on such diet. The planted corn that
can be cultivated at least one way never
utterly fails, as fodder corn often does
when the season is not favorable. If
good for nothing else, it makes splendid
fodder, and sometimes better than that
from which ripened ears have been
taken. In growing fodder corn it is best
to have large weight in few stalks
rather than in many, so if we could grow
the same weight per acre by sowing
broadcast we would still prefer to drill
far enough apart to run a cultivator be-
tween the rows. In most seasons, how
ever, the large weight will be in the
corn that has been cultivated and has
grown large enough to produce incipient
ears Courier Journal.

After Forty Years Immersion.

A very interesting report has just been
issued by DIR. Konig, judicial physician
of Hermannstadt, on the state in which
the human subject, after forty years inn
mersion in water, may be found by the
Psychologist. In the revolutionary up
heaval of 1S49, a company of Honveds,
as the Hungarian militia are called, hav
ing fallen in the vicissitudes of war, were
consigned to the waters of the Echo
schacht, pool of considerable depth not
far from Hermannstadt. After some
forty-one years their bodies have been
brought up again to the light of day and
subjected to careful aud minute invcsti
cation from the physiologist's point of
view. DIR, KONG found them in perfect
preservation, both externally and inter-
nally, without n single trace of any de-
composing process. Externally they had
the appearance of having been kept in
spirit, like so many preparations in an
anatomical museum. Structurally the
organs retained their outline perfectly
and were so easily recognizable in tissue
as well as in contiguration that, accord
ing to DIR. KONG, they might have been
exhibited for demonstration" in an
anatomical lecture room. Considering
that the bodies have been forty-one years
under water this is, indeed, remarkable
phenomenon.

A Method of Floating Stranded Vessels

Commander F. NJ. Barber, of the
United States Navy, has recently had
granted to him a patent for a method of
floating stranded vessels. 1t has been
known that if sudden jar can be given
vessel, which is aground, at the same
time that force is being exerted to draw
her off she can often be foated when all
other methods fail. Commander Barber's
method is to give the vessel jar by
simultaneously exploding a number of
torpedoes placed on the bottom of the
water at a short distance from the vessel.
His patent covers all applications of ex.
plosives to floating stranded vessels, and
will probably be extensively used by
wrecking companies. .-Ne0 York Tribune.

Mares used TO warm stables caunot be
turned loose on rocky hills in a cold and
storm aud thrive; nor can they produce
the colts they should and would under
care.
1t is not fiction but sober fact that
western farmers sometimes moved their
stables rather than haul out the manure.
Those farmers now haul out all the manure
they can.
When you have the stables all ready
for winter use, a good coat of whitewash
will add to their freshness as well as
looks. Add a bit of glue to the wash
and it will stick better.
