Fowls In m e,r.

As the weather begins to get warmer
the lice will appear. To rid the hens Of
them Is but little trouble. for the hens
perform the work themselves with the
dnst-bath; but unless the houses are
kept free of the lice it is useless to at
tempt to give the fowls comfort, as the
yermin operate both day and night.
Young chickens are often doctored when
they begin to droop, simply because the
breeder Is not aware that lice are at
work. But the question is how to eff
fectually drive them away. Persian in
sect powder will do it wherever it is
applied, but unless all portions of the
fowl house are busted with it, in order
to reach all, they will again multiply.
Coal oil eHectually prevents their depre-
dations, but this substance is not a safe
one to use, for in the course of time the
wood becomes saturated, and the drop
ping of q match or contact of a candle
may cause q conf1agration. A solution
of some kind should be used-something
that can be poured into the cracks and
crevices-and the best substance for
such purposes is carbolic acid. A table
spoonful of crude carbolic acid in a
quart of water will kill not only the lice,
but the species of bed bugs that also
infest such places. It should not be
mixed with %whitewash, unless used for
sdlslnfecting. purposes only, as the acid
combines with the lime and becomes less

"Well, It was settled that the body
was to be got, up and city experts were
written to. / was dispatched along
with q squad to open the grave, ana
we were accompanied by n OF the
justices and his clerk. 1t was only q
week or two since the poor creature
had been buried, but already a number
Of flowers were growing on he grave

rel. wed the plants carefully, and then
worked away till they Laid the coffin
bare. Cords were run underneath, ana
we hoisted it up, but while doing so
were struck by it's exceeding hghtness.
Yes, YOU guessed it; the coffin was
empty. When it came to the surface,
we saw at once that the foot end was
knocked to pieces and the body gone.
1--WE did not understand the thing at
all till a knowing n amongst the men
drew our attention to a square patch
Of turf at some distance from the foot
of the grave which had evidently been
lifted and laid down again. On remov-
ing this turf, it was clear that q hole
had been dug beneath, and we soon
discovered that this hole had been car
ried slantingly to the coffin foot, and
the body dragged up the incline. This,
/ understand, is q way In which the
rogues often do their jobs. 1t Is a
clean job, and the robbery is not soon,

stories be true, he has been part and

now. 1t is a different thing, you see,
when it comes home. When it was told

was suggested, but our Jail doctor said
no; brain trouble and exhaustion. So

arsenic found in it, it would have gone

Some weeks passed away, and DR..
James Burch was moving among his
patients and acquaintanceS us serenely
and with as much acceptance. as ever.
II a few at first felt inclined to hold
back on suspicion, his unnoticing nav
ity, and the force of example, over
came their hesitation and brought
round the old relations. IL the late UNI
fortunate occurrences had left n

visible to the world. His brow was
as clear, his eye as bright, and his smile
as sweet and ingratiating as formerly.

1t was inhabited by n lady some years

some fortune, over which a confiding
husband had left her the full control.
She had lately become either delicate
or hypOchOndriac, and seemed to re-
gard regular visits from DR.. James as
q necessity Of life. He now, as we have
said, appeared to. be more in request
than ever; and one afternoon, while
the sun was still high In the heavens,
he walked up the short avenue which
led from the high-road to Maple Grove
and called upon this lady. She was q
s~oft-looking woman, with blonde hair,
blue eyes, and a languishing sort of
smile not uncaptivating. She received

More Potash Needed

i. Fodder crops, pasture grasses,
corn slower and hay all remove large
amounts of potash from the soil, and
these crops occupy q large proportion
OF III improved lands. .a'
2. The urine of our domestic ami.
mails contain about four-hfths of the
total potash OF their excrements.
s When urine is allowed to waste,
the anu is poor in potash.
4. When are exposed to
rains, much CT the potash, being
soluble, is washed away.
5. Nearly all the special fertilizers
are especially rich in phosphoric
acid, and do not contain enough pot
ash.
6. Superphosphates were the first
fertilizers to come into general use
among our farmers.
z. When the farmer buys a -fertil-
izer, he still, nine times out Of ten,
calls for a phosphate.
8. As q result of the above condi-
tions. u soils seem to be quite gen.
orally in need of more liberal appli-
GATORS of potash.
9. In the case of corn the need of
potash appears to be particularly
prominent.
10. For a good crop of corn the
fertilizer used should supply one
hundred to one hundred and twenty
five pounds of actual potash per acre;
two hundred to two hundred and
fifty pounds of muriate of potash or
n ton (fifty bushels) of good wood
ashes will do this.
IL. With ordinary farm or stable
manure it will generally pay to use
some potash for corn; one hundred
and twenty five to one hundred and
fifty pounds of muriate of potash has
given profitable results.
IL. The liberal use of potash means
more clover in fields, more nj
trogen taken from the air, more milk
in the pail, y richer manure heap,
and s~torehouses and barns full to
overlooking. It means also a sod
which when turned will help every
other crop.
IS. For the potato crop the sui
phate appears to be much superior
to the muriate of potash, promoting
both yield and quality in much high
er degree; 800 to 400 pounds of high
grade sulphate of potash furnishes
enough of this element.
IA. For oats, rye and grass, nitrate
of soda applied just as growth begins
in spring has proved very beneficial;
800 to.40O pounds per ere should be
applied.-Professor w. P. Brooks.

Feeding Horses.

A great many horses are injured,
and some of them utterly spoiled. by
improper feeding. In many cases
the material used is not especially
adapted to the needs of the animals,
while in others it is actually injur-
ious. Concerning this the Horse
World says: Many cases Of heaves
are caused by feeding musty hay. and
even more serious ailments may be
traced to the use of damaged grain.
There are also many ase of diseases
resulting from the improper use of
good materials. While q few feed
too little hay, there are many who
give their horses altogether too large
q quantity. 3
They fill their hangers or racks,
and when the animals have disposed
of what they received a new supply
is given. In this way, when the
horses are in the barn most OF the
time they are, as far as quantity Is
concerned, greatly overfed. When
these horses are required for work,
and really need food more than when
they are comparatively idle they re.
|L.N. -E LHE. - 80 go - -
ceiye q much smaller quantity. The
safe way to do in the matter is ia
feed the horse regularly giving him
an abundant quantity, not pyer-feed-
ing him. When work is required,
grain should be added to the hay in
proportion to the work required.
Even when the horse is idle, small
quantities OF grain fed with h1s hay
will be better for him, AMI will be.
more profitable for the owner than
the use Of hay alone. But even If
the hay is omitted. regular feeding,
with proper limitations ~ til guam
tity Of hay supplied, will baa greater
advantage than the constant stnffing
TO which SO many horses ere sub
jccted.
