Valuable Old Floors,

The smelling and refining of the floors
of the factory OF a watch company's es-
tablishmcnt, on Bond street, near Broad
way, was completed the other day and
proved to be one of the largest contracts
of the kind ever undertaken in America.
When the watch company decided
last spring to abandon case making the
proprietors agreed with the reiners to
have the floors of the building on Bond
street, where they had been for nineteen
years, worked up for the precious metals
they might contain, and contracted the
job on percentage of the value OF the
gold and silver reclaimed.
The contractors took up three floors
and part of another, cut the boards into
lengths that would admit of their being
easily handled, and carted them off to
their works. Here the boards were
burned and the ashes subjected to the
process of refining. Altogether about
10000 square feet of lumber was des-
troyed, and after deducting the amount
due them on the contract, Messrs. Glor.
ieux & Woolsey turned over to the wato !
company more than $4,000 worth o.
gold and silver. New York Mail and

gently ndulating-most all the plowing
is done by the sulky plow, using three
stout mules or horses to each plow. The
advantages these plows have over the
old hand plow is much more and better
work; the land is evenly turned over at
uniform depth and no skips or missed
places left. The plow being supported
ON wheels is not so hard on the team,
nor ON the plowman, who rides instead
of walking, and having the free use of
his hands, can manage his team much
better. Two such plows will turn over
with ease three acres per day.
After the blowing is thoroughly done the
next point is to have the soil made mel
low and free of lumps-not only on the
surface, but some three or more inches
below the surface. This fining of the
soil can only be done by first narrowing
with the three horse spring tooth har-

sCALY LEG IN POULTRY.

The scaly leg is caused by the pres
ence of small insect that gets beneath
the scales, and it is therefore contagious,
but it spreads, as do all vermin, more
rapidly where proper care is not taken
to keep the roosts and nests clean, and
where the manure is allowed to lie and
ferment under the roosts. To extermi-
nate it, begin by bathing the legs well
twice day in olive oil, or still better in
a mixture of one quart of SKINNED milk
and teacupful of kerosene oil, wiping
dry after the bath. AS good way is to
put the mixture in dish and then force
the fowl to stand in it few minutes.
While this treatment is going on they
should have dry quarters, and be kept
from running out in the wet grass, and
should be we'll fed. The nests and
roosts should be brushed with kerosene,
and all filth taken out of the henhouse.
In few days those scales will come off,
but care should be taken for while to
prevent taking cold, lest it develop leg
weakness or rheumatism. A little of
the Douglass mixture in the water will
be good for them at this time. Boston

GOOD WALKS FOR THE FARM.

Most farm premises are not adequate
ly provided with properly made walks.
The footpath from the front gate to the
house, and from the house to the barn
should be covered with some better ma
terial than dirt. In a section where fiat
stones can be easily obtained they will
make the most economical and durable
walk. They need not be wide enough
to reach across the walk, but may be
laid side by side until the desired width
Is obtained. Cobble stone may be used.
In making stone walk bank the earth
at least two inches above the level, and
press the stones firmly into this bank.
Round stones should be two inches or
less in diameter, and pounded down
with sledge. 1t will be difficult to
keep the grass out of this walk unless
salt, or very strong brine, is frequently
scattered over it. Gravel, when easily
obtalnable, makes durable and cheap
walk, and one that is always dry. The
foundation should be excavated to the
depth OF at least one foot, and filled
with small or broken stone to within six
inches of the top, then fill the remain
der with gravel, making the top little
rounding. The gravel should have been
previously freed from all earth by sift-
ing or washing. Next to flat stone,
plank walks are the cheapest and best.
II planks are laid lengthwse of the walk,
they should be firmly spiked at the ends
to pieces of some durable wood sunk in
the soil, and If such pieces and the low
er sides of the planks are coated with
several applications of crude petroleum,
they will last much longer. Inch
boards may be used instead of plank.
The walk from the barn to the house is
the most important, as it is from this
source that the most mud is tracked in
to the house. If dry walks are provided
the housewife will each year be saved

PREPARING FOR THE FALL SEEDING.

After the harvest is over and men and
teams have rested few days, the oat
stubble and the second crop clover
ground, intended for seeding early this
fall, should be turned over, writes +.
Sanderson of Baltimore, Md.
The land must be plowed in time so
that the stubble may rot, aud also that
the soil may become settled aud firm be-
fore seeding. All practical farmers have
long since come to the conclusion that
the early plowed land kept mellow by
the free use OF the harrow and roller,
but firm underneath, yields the most
most grain and the best quality.
In our limestone districts, notably In
the Cumberland Valley, the corn land is
mostly drilled To wheat. The coru ripens
early, some years as early as September
5th. 1t is cut off by contract at si.25

shocks, and these shocks are securely
tied. The corn ground is thoroughly

A DARING ADVENTURES.

Captain William A. Andrews, already
famous for his daring adventures in small
boats on the stormy Atlantic, has again set
sail on a novel and interesting voyage.
He crossed the ocean twice before, first In
the "Nautilus," when he was accompanied
by his brother, who has since died, and
again in the MERMAID" both of these trips
being made to Lands End, England. A
few years ago he again attempted the pas.
