The Press is the mirror of the daily ii1e of the world, but it performs the very highest duty in selecting what It small reflect. The newspaper is read by the boy before he begins the study or ms morning lesson and it is his companlon after he returns from school; it is beside our daughter in her boudoir and her peo- room; it drops into those young hVes facts, thoughts and impressions which bear sweet or bitter fruit in after years. It is often said that there is enormous profits in ministering to the depraVeu and debased elements in human nature and that the papers which refrain throw away fortunes. I do not believe it, Ii the paper has come to stay. The family IS the unit of society and, no matter what it's head may be, he does not introduce or tolerate in that circle any element when he believes will destroy it. Without the family support, no newspaper can sur vive and that journal will have the long est life, the largest profits and the great est influence which, as far as possible, admits to it's columns only such matter as it's editor would freely narrate at ms own table.-[Chauncey M.

The personality of the doctor, his dis- position. his habits and his character form large part of his success or fall ure. The vain and pompous doctor, who thinks so much of himself that he faiis to appreciatc the weakness and watch fulness of the sick, leaves behind him sense of neglect and indifference which neutra lizes his medicine. The dlScursiVe and argumentative doctor airs his opln- ions on politics or theology to aching bones and fevered brain, until only weakness keeps the victim from murder. The grossest injury to the helpless patient, absorbing with every breath the spirit of her environment, is the pollut- ing presence of the doctor saturated with whisky or tobacco. But when the clear, cheerful and hopeful physician enters the room, he brings in comfort and health. The sufferer knows that this man is able and skillful, that ms brain and heart are full of the case and that his sympathies follow his efforts. He is welcomed with faith, and bless ings follow departure. He exorclses Despair and is Victor over Death.

WlnterinR Poultry.

As TO the kind OF poultry-house
needed, much will depend upon the
number OF fowls you propose to keep,
and also upon the amount you desire
to spend for utility or ornament.
Twelve fowls require a room twelve
feet square. The cheapest and most
convenient poultry-house is built OF
SKA joists for frame, and covered
with matched boards. The roof and
walls should be covered with tar
paper. and when dressed with coat
ing of coal tar will be enti rely i'm
pervious 10 the atmosphere or storm.
and will last for many years build
my houses about ten feet wide. with a
shed roof, says writer In American
Agriculturist the front posts about
seven feet high. the back posts about
five feet. The front faces south and
is lighted with one good-sized window
every twelve feet. Most poultry
houses have too much glass. giving
too much heat at midday and too
much cold at midnight. Even with
the above described windows, tightly
fitting shutters are needed for protec-
ton on cold Winter nights. The most
important matter in connection with
poultry-houses is ventilation. No ami
mai on the farm needs so frequent
change OF air as the poultry.

In baking cake butter neither tin

For cold on the lungs. lay a cloth
on the chest which has first been
wrung out In boiling water and
sprinkled with turpentine.
The eating table should be set Ia a
light airy room, moderately heated,
while the mental atmosphere should
be one OF quiet and happy relaxation.

A little powdered borax thrown into

Effects of Rolling Land.

During the spring of 1889, a series
OF observations was made by the Wis
cousin Experimental Station. which
indicated that the rolling OF land has
very perceptible effect upon its
temperature. The results obtained
s-o summarized as follows:
O Rolling land makes the tenn
peraturo OF the soil at 1.5 inches below
the surface from 10 to 90 L. warmer
than similar unrolled ground, and at
three inches from II TO 60 warmer.
(2) Rolling land. by firming the soil.
increases its power Of drawing water
to the surface from below, and this
influence has been observed To extend
to a depth OF three or four feet (3)
The evaporation OF moisture Is more
rapid than from unrolled ground, un-
less the surface soil is very wet, and
then the reverse is the case; the drying
effect OF rolling has been found TO
extend TO a depth Of four feet az In
cases OF broadcast seeding, germina-
tic. Is more rapid and more complete.
10Y In their experiments on oats, the
yield stood 81. ~ bushels on rolled
ground, and So. 80 bushels on the un-
rolled ground. (6) The oats from the
rolled ground weighed 203 pounds per
bushel more than that from the I'M
rolled ground; the kernel also average
ed larger.
But 1t must be remembered that this
Is an isolated case, aud the observa-
tions should be repeated, TO more full
ly establish the conclusion which we
have drawn. The observations were
all taken between / and p. M. the
temperature OF the soil was taken by
means OF cylindrical bulb thermome-
tiers, which were pushed down into the
soil ut different depths, and allowed to
remain some time before registering
The air temperature was taken by
whirling the thermometer four feet
above the ground. 1t is plainly evil
dent that rolling tends TO raise the
temperature OF the soil, and there Is
no question but what this tends to in
sure healthy termination OF the seed.
