Odd demands are made on the busy
editors time. A Scotch member Of the
fraternity recently received a letter, the
envelope bearing request that the con-
tents should be handed to any bookseller
in Edinburgh. The letter ran: "The
book that / want is counting book--a
book that will tell me how to talk to the
lass that love; book that will tell me
the words to say to her and the words to
ask her when ! be counting her Is the
sort of book that want, no matter
how few or how little the words may

Nervous ExcitabIllty After Death.

Experiments made by M. d'Arsonval
with an instrument he calls myophone
prove, contrary to the older opinion,
that nervous excitability may exist for
many hours after death. The old test Of
the muscle shortening is no doubt not
applicable long after death has departed,
but as the sound given out by the myo-
phone proves. the death of nerve is
much less rapid than has been hitherto
supposed, and nerve may act on mus
Gle in state of electric excitability
without producing more than simple
molecular vibration.

thoroughly cleaned off as soon as frost
appears, the debris burned and TIE bed

manure being forked into the surface
Of the ground
TIE orchard must not be robbed by
crops of grass, unless manure or fer
tilizers are applied, When trees are
making rapid growth and bear crops
annually, it is as much a drain on the
soil as when it is producing some other
crop.
CATTLE should be put on n partial
course of dry food before winter, in
order to gradually accustom them to
the change from pasture. 1t is well
known that when cows are suddenly
removed from the fields to the barn
there will be shrinlSagc in the milk
yield.
A COLT, calf or pig grows more rap
idly when very young than at any
other PERIOD and the gain in size can
be secured at less cost at the early age.
For that reason all young stock should
be pushed in growth, not only during
fall but through the winter also.
a FARMER will get up at 4 o'clock,
clean out the stalls, feed, milk, ship
his milk daily land Sunday, tool, make
up the beds, and milk and feed again,
with a bare profit, if he has a dairy
herd but it is hard work to even clean
out poultry house once week.
