the late J. II Carleton, who's
death, "a announced in the las

climate in which we rejoice, yet
the all wise God, for soma reason
unknown to us, had decreed thai
he should not stay. de went

on Sunday last.
During the time he dwelt among
us he won the good will aud es-
TEEN, respect and love Of all Il
think may say all in this little
hamlet 1t will be ns gentle
man that he will he remembered
here. But there Is DO greater
trihute To his memory than this:
that he won the affection aud love
Of little chill lien. No man can
have a greater tribute. He gov
erned his school wisely aud we'll,
firmly but with q gantle hand; AMI
took pans to instill into the young
mind not merely The principles Of
grammar aud arithmetic, but Of
sound morolity and those other
qualtiee which contribnte 70 the
making Of noble men and women.
We regret his death because by
it the world loses a good man, aud
because he leaves widow md
children To mourn his loss; but
from no other reason. Prof, Car
Teton was prepared to die OF that
We may be assured, Had he re-
mained here bpt few weeks long

Bishop KendrIck and becomes "A

physician aud left with the hope
unfufiIled. But hc was in a dan
Cerors cond ton and it was deem
ed highly imprudent for Lin to
llnger longer away from the home
in which he desired to die.
Prof. Carleton WAS true Chris
tiau, who was not ashamed to
acknowledge the leadership of the
Master, aud to practice the reIig-
ion He taught. He was not one
Of your noble men, who regard
religion with contempt, as

fit only for the amusemen: of wo-
men and children. He saw that
it was thing for men, aud bad he

strong among us, other men would
have seen it too, for he WAS not q

Rheumatism is due to the Tactic acid

the blood, removes the cause of rheu-

disease. This is the testimony OF
thousands Of people who once suf.

Scientific Pig Feeding

Has been undertaken at the Vermont
experiment station. 1t was found
that siXty-twO per cent. Of the market
value of the food was got back in the
value of the manure, when the latter
was properly handled. The cost of
food for pound of increase in live
weight and the profits were slightly
in favor of the less watery ration, but
the shrinkage at slaughter was the
same in these pigs as in those fed on
dryer ration. Buttermik had about
tour-fifths the feeding value Of skim
milk. Poland hinas and Berkshires
gave the same results, but in another
test, Berkshires outstripped York
shires. In most cases it costs more to
keep pigs after a certain age than
their gain in weight is worth. At
the Danish station at Proskau feeding
corn meal was followed by good re-
suits in every case. Corn meal may
be fed to pigs under four months old
with no bad results, provided the
amOnnt fed be not to great at first,
but gradually increased, and the
whole ration not to rich. The ami
mails ted uncooked corn meal made a
slightly larger gain than those fed
cooked meal. They gave good re-
suits.

Pancies and Fallacies in AgriCul-
ture.

"Plant beans with the eye down."
On the envelops inclosing lima beans
bought of most seedsmen in the Unit
ed States. the purchaser is advised to
plant with the eye down to ensure
successful vegetation. Having never
followed this advice in a successful
experience of forty years, the follow
ing experiment was made last year in
two adjacent hills In one ten beans
were carefully placed with the eye
down. In the other ten were drop
ped in the usual way except that care
W as taken to have none with the eye
down, while every bean produced a
plant in the other.
EARLY varieties of peaches bloom
late and late varieties bloom early"
This expression was heard so often
that careful and accurate observations
were made for two consecutive sea-
sons. and record kept of the date of
opening of the first flowers upon
forty five varieties, the date of full in
floresence and its completion. 1t was
found that some of the earliest varie-
ties were among the first to bloom,
and others were among the last. In
fine, there seemed to be no connec-
ton whatever between the time of
ripening and date of Towering. Some
varieties continue much longer in
flower than others. This habit ena-
bies the former to escape late frOsts
when the latter are destroyed. The
Hale and its descendant, the Alex.
ander, are conspicuous examples of
long continued towering and annual
bearing.
Seeding peaches ave more hardy
and reliable than budded trees A
large number OF seedlings and bnddel |
trees were planted under identical
Seven years after they
were planted, the percentage of loss
among the seedlings was more than
double that of the budded trees. The
fruit borne by the Seeding hich |
were grown from seed of choice seed
ling fruit-was without exception in
ferior to that from the budded trees.
The Seeding fruit ripened within
one month in midsummer, while the
budded varieties yielded delicious
from May to November. The budded
rees gave fruit in unfsvorabIe sea-
sons when the seeding failed. A Sc
we're frost on the twentieth of March
seriously injured the seedlings-kill-
I'd back the tOpS-while the budded
rees were not injured.
"Plant potatoes with cut side down."
When boy, assisting in my fathers
garden, | was required at the cost of
much wasted energy, to carefully
Dlace each piece of potato with the cut
tide down. When planted my first

Keep Off My Hunting Grounds or

A recent report from China says
that Ii Hung Chang the great China
man who has recently been in this
country, entered the Imperial Park
and hunting grounds without permits

is deprivation of all ranks and decOra-

be lenient and has merely deprived
him of a years salry, amounting to
