LITTLE ODDS AND ENDS.

Instead of stalking tomatoes put
straw around them. This will keep
them moist and clean.
Elder bark scraped off and fried
in fresh lard or mutton tallow makes
salve that will cure burns and
sores.
For earache dissolve asafetida in
water. Warm few drops and drop
into the ear, then cork the ear with
wool.
For catarrh take one-half ounce
of borax, and one ounce of loaf sugar
pulverized. Mix and snuff five or six
times day.
For cabbage worms dissolve one
half teaspoonful of saltpeter in one
quart water. Sprinkle on the cab
bage in the cool of the day.
For roup in chickens mix together
half ounce of carbolic acid, one
ounce of sweet oil, and one ounce of
Jamaica ginger. Swab out the throat
two or three times day, confine the
sick chicken by itself, and feed soft
food. Put iron into the drinking wa

Grass Mixture for Meadows.
There Is much evidence to show
that judicious mixture of grasses
for permanent meadows is better
than one or two varieties. The
chinlxs are better filed, and in the
event of one or two species dying
out there is chance for others to
fill the space. The following has
been found very good for average
upland. The quantities are for one
acre: Four pounds red-top, 10 tim
othy, 4 tall meadow oat-grass, s
sheep fescue, 1 white clover, red
clover, alsike, making 40 pounds
an acre. Any first-class scotsman
can make up the above mixture. The
clovers should be mixed and sown
separately.-Rural New Yorker.

London, Jan. 2S.-The Government lead

OF Commons today, that no overtures for
peace had been received from any au-

A communication was. however, received
late on Saturday last, from the Dutch
Government which was now under con-
sideration. Mr. Balfour hoped shortly
to lay the communication and the reply
to it before the House.
The Government of Holland has of
fered in the most friendly terms to help
in bringing about peace in South Africa.
IN a communication TO the British Gov
ernment, the Dutch Government sug-
gests that it might be permitted to act
as a sort Of diplomatic agent for the

ever expressly disavows any attempt at
intervention and does not mention any
terms

the Associated Press that the British
Government infers that it would not
have been approached unless the Dutch
authorities were convinced that the Boer
delegates now in Europe were willing
to accept the cardinal points OF the Brit

in Parliament.

The condition of Captain David D..
Porter's marines, who took part in the

is much worse than previously described.
They suffered fearful hardships and were
without food for several days. The ma
tives who accompanied the marines
claimed they were unable to distinguish
the edible roots, which the marines did
not believe. The anger of the marines
against the natives is intense. None of
the latter returned with the marines.
The marines suffered so acutely from
starvation that they ate, raw, the flesh
of two dogs.
