ABOUT LIME.
What the Great Scientist, Prof +. b.
Liebig. Says About the Use of Lime.

The Cultivator and Country Gentleman,
one of the leading agricultural journals of
the country, in its issue of April Both, has
an excellent article from leading farmer
of New York State about the use of lime
upon land. The article was written in
answer to some of the bulletins issued by
the Geneva, New York Experiment Sta
ton. We clip the following extracts
taken from an opinion Of the eminent
scientist, Prof. +. B. Liebig, and over
which onr farmers may give some thought: :
81 have, unfortunately, never had an
opportunity of examining a soil on which
lime dressing has exercised a beneficial
effect; the experiments made by Kuhl-
mann seem to show that lime is principally
useful in altering the condition Of the soil, =
And again Liebig says: at may safely
be taken for granted here, that if lime had
acted as a nutritive element in the develop
ment of the meadow plants, the plat ma
nured with carbonate of lime ought to
have given higher, but assuredly in no
case an inferior crop, than the unmanured
plat But the very reverse is the case; the
carbonate of lime had an unfavorable effect;
the coustic lime, on the contrary, was bene-
fetal"
Prof. Storer, of the Bussey Institution,
in his late work on agriculture says; "In
so far as the immediate requirements of
the plants (as food are concerned, few
pounds of any lime compound 70 the acre
would satisfy them, and there is already
enough, and more than enough, lime in
almost every cultivable SOIL" and he con-
cludes as follows: "From all of which it
appears that lime cannot be accounted a
fertilizer of direct action. Consequently,
in seeking to explain the benefits derived
from lime, special attention must be given
to the physical and chemical actions of
this substance upon the soil itself and upon
various constituents in the soil.
Indeed, so well is this action of lime as
an indirect fertilizer recognized, that the
English farmers proverb-

Things Worth Knowing.

/. That fish may be scaled much easier
by dipping into boiling water about q
minute.
2. That fish may as. well be scalded if
desired before packing down in salt, though
in that case do not scald them.
3. Salt fish are quickest and best
freshened bysoaking in sour milk.
4. That milk which is turned or
changed may be syeetened and rendered
fit for use again by stirring in little
soda
5. That salt will curdle new milk,
hence in preparing milk porridge, gravies,
&c, the salt should not be added until the
dish is prepared.
6. That fresh meat, after beginning 10
sour, will sweeten if placed out of doors
in the cool of night.
Z. That clear boiling water will remove
tea stains and many fruit stains Pour the
water through the stain and thus prevent
it spreading over the fabric.
8. That ripe tomatoes will remove ink
and other stains from white cloth; also from
the hands,
9. That a tablespoonful of turpentlne
boiled with your white clothes will aid in
the whitening process.
TO- That boiled starch is much improved
by the addition of little sperm or little
salt, or little gum arabic dissolved.
H. That beeswax and salt will make
your rusty fiat irons as clean and smooth
as glass. Tie lump of wax in a rag and
keep it for that purpose. When the irons
are hot rub them first with the wax rag,
then scour with paper or cloth sprinkled
with salt
H. That blue ointment and kerosene
mixed in equal proportions and applied to
the bedsteads is an unfailing bedbug rem
edy, and that coat of whitewash is ditto
for the walls of a log house.
13 That kerosene will soften boots or
shoes that have been hardened by water
and render them as pliable as new,
II. That kerosene will make tin tea

Filial Affection Among Hebrews

There is nothing in the world of pleas
ure and recreation to compare with the
beautiful devotion that is paid the old
Hebrew people by their children and grand
children at the various summer resorts.
A rude remark is never made in their
hearing, nor disrespeetful word uttered
to aged mother or father. The gentle
yielding Of easy chairs, the offering of
choice things to eat and drink, the last
consideration of self where there is a drive
or sail for limited number, and the
graceful anticipation of creature comforts
are attributes of the children TO which the
flialrespect ofthe Christian is not approach
able.

REST coMErH AFTER ALL.


Though friends desert you in the race for fame,
Though fortune leaves you for some other goal;
Though you are blameless, yet receive much blame,
Though sorrow dweIleth deep within your soul,
Though life has been failure and you plod
FOotsore and weary DER this earthly ball,
still il you have faith. a trust in God,
Rest eometh after all.
Rest cometh after all, then higher climb;
Rest cometh after all, though wealth departs,
The world may blame you, yet rest sublime,
Shall drive the sorrow from your heart of hearts;
Though life's sad failures make you onward plod.
sin-siek and weary till You reach the pail,
still ifyon have a faith, trust in God,
Rest cometh after all.
Rest eometh after all, then let usg go
Forth to the duties of this iieetng life,
Bearing our masters burdens, for We know
In Him is comfort and rest from strife
And worldly sorrow; let our faith be shod
With love and mercy, while we ever call
our friends to an eternal, mighty God,
Rest eometh after ALL
Rest cometh after all, then as we seek
higher life, a better, grander road,
let Us ofIesus Saviour speak,
For he will help us bear 1ife's awful load
Ofcares and sins, of doubt and unbelief
Ofearthly struggles be they great or small,
We thank thee God that life and trials are brief
Rest cometh after all.

Horseradish a Cure for the Grip.
Lime and lime and no manure.
Makes the son and father poor"
las long been established by practice

A week or two ago a lady wrote a
note to the Chicago Tribune recommend
ing the use of horseradish as a means of
alleviating the miseries of the grip, if not
effecting a thorough cure. Several in-
stances in which this suggestion was acted
upon with strikingly favorable results bave
come to the knowledge of the Tribune.
Ordinarily grated horseradish, eaten at
frequent intervals during the day and in
connection with food at the table, if food
is eaten at all, has been found remarkably
efficacious in banishing the distressing
cough that frequently fingers after all the
other symptoms of the grip have gone. II
can do no harm to try it, at all events.
The humble but pungent horseradish must
have been mule for some good use.

The Advantages of Conversation.

The most agreeable way of getting infor-
nation is by conversation. If you can
talk with a well Informed person, who can
clearly express his ideas on any subject in
which you are interested, you can ask
questions, you can have explanations, you
can 90 over the subject until you thor
oughly understand it, and searching out in
this way, in the mind of another, thing
which you earnestly desire to know, you
are more likely to remember it and to
profit by it, This is why competent
teacher is better than any text book. Be
sides, talk inspires both the speaker and
the listener-the one becomes more eager
to know and the other more eager to COM
municate
