 ' --US;' ' ill THE FARMER'S COKNER. Acrtcnltural Notes. The time to begin 'wiaterLog cattle is when the feed begins to fail in the Fall. Any ne- glect now is sure to cost dearly in the end. Too many varieties in an orchard spoil the chances for profit. It is very rare that more than three or four kinds of apples are profitable, and when one is found that bears uniform crops of salable fruit it is safe to restrict attention to that. There is probably no crop on which com- mercial fertilizers have produced better re- sults this year than on beans. The effect of these fertilizers in making the crops ripen earlier has saved many fields which without the manure would have been worth little or .nothing. Many streams have their banks lined with grass, bushes and often trees, which greatly obstruct the flow of water. A ditch in which these impediments have begun to grow very soon becomes so clogged up as to be of little value for drainage purposes, and if tile drains empty into it they become worthless also. Before winter sets in a few barrels of road dust should be gathered for use in hen- houses, privies, etc., during cold weather. The fine dust on a well-travelled road is often itself a good manure, beinp largely composed of the excrement of horses and cattle driven over it. Fowl will usually destroy wheat or other small tjrain for a few feet near the edge of the lot in which they run. What they eat in the Fall rarely does much damage, but if their depredations are renewed in the Spring the strip so eaten will be of little value at harvest time. The chief difficulty in feeding cotton-seed meal to stock is from the indigestible husk, which has never been entirely removed. If this can be doue, as it will doubtless be DOW that cotton seed meal is so largely call- ed for, it is very likely to take the place of other and less nutritious feeds. The great majority of open drains would be much more effective «,nd durable if stone or pipe were put in and the drain covered. An open drain needs yearly fixing, and if the tall is good, a much smaller pipe will an- swer to carry off the water than is common- ly supposed in looking at the stream. Buckwheat intended for seed should be hand threshed. In threshing by machine many of the grains are so bruised and brok- en that they will not germinate. As buck- wheat is very easily hand threshed, it makes a job for ni^n in Winter when other work is scarce, ant. r. .3 a good policy to save it for Tbe Use cf Plaster. There is scarcely a farmer who does not know how useful is a dressing of plster or gypsum to Iml bearing clover. But while this is thus, \tt it is very rare to see any use made of it. Perhaps plaster has been hardly used by its friends more than by tho^e wlio have no faith ip it. Many thiugs are said in iis favor whii.h are untrue, and what is worse, are uureis enable. We re- cently read an otherwise excellent article upon the use of plaster, which contained the statement th t one ».f the benefits derived from it was that it attracted moisture from drying up. Now, that statement is untrue and tiufounded, as aDy one mav know who I'.nderstand-i the chaiacter of this mineral. And so with many other wrong statements about it, aud wrong directions lor using it, based upon the erroneous ititements. The quantity usually applied is 100 pounds per acre but this is not sufficient tor a full effect. It is cheap, and a full dose can well be afforded. At §10 per ton, 500 pounds per acre will be very cheap dressing. If it 11 ground very fine the effect is produced more rapidly than when it is in coarse pow- der, and it is best to use it in the finest state of division. There are other uses on the farm for gypsum. As a purifier of stables, cesspools, poultry-houses, or other foul places. It is very effective. We have heard from those in whose opinion we had confidence that it would not act as a deodorizer when in a dry state and not until it had entered, into sjlution. This opinion, however, is not founded upon fact. It operates as a deo- dorizer by al sorbing ammonia and the pun- £;ent ammoniacal vapors which are produced by decomposing oraanic substances. It is capable of absorbing ammonia, when dry, for it will quickly furify a foul-poultry hDusewhen scattered freely about, although the place and everything about it is perfect- ly dry. Bt sides, if a small quantity of dry p iTrtered gypsum be placed in a glass tube, aari current of ammonia, which is really a gas, be passed through it from a bottle of or- dm .rv ammonia water, it will be found that the gas will be absorbed in greater part, and ita i-i^ngency be greatly diminished. How- e\-ei. in practice, it will be found that to ^.aLi.r it freely about stables, cowsheds, van's, pig peas, cesspools, manure heaps, â- â€¢Itp 'inks, and all such disagreeably smell- ing places, will quickly stop the odors and loinp.etely neutralize them. The effect is to i:n:te the ammonia and the sulphuric acid of the plaster, producing an inodorous sul- I'h.irt: of amruonia, and to leave the lime liSi- this very soon uniting with carbonic aci(i, which is abundant in all decaying sab- stances, and forming carbonate of lime. Gypsum is the more valuable becauss it heps us to :7row large crops of clover, which, in its growth, draws from the soil fiom a considerable depth many of the most teeded substances for the growth of crops, an 1 leaves them upon or near the surface. The deep feeding roots of clover bring up from several feet below the surface phos- phoric acid, potash aud nitrogen, and con- vey these to the leaves and steins end large top roots. It is this effect of gypsum which gives it, through the clover crop, the character of a general fertilizer, while being in itself only one of a special char- acter. With gypsum we can produce clove), and with clover the soil can be made to produce all other crops. which is nature's method. In our Eastern States, however, the fannpr cannot spare the land to take such rest, hence the neces- sity of applying fertilizers, both natural and arti^cial. The excrements of animals contain na- ture's fertilizer. As applied to the soil the solid and liquid manures are of about equal value, the latter being rather more available than the former when absorbed by some proper substance. Many farmers who are very careful concerning the solid excrements of the cattle make no provision for saving the valuable liquids. In Winter the aver- age farmer throws the liquid manure out of the bam, there to remain against the build- ing, to l3s bleached by sun and wind and washed by storms, until much of its value is lost. Even this class of farmers make no provision for saving the liqi;id niinures, which are allowed to go to waste and form a nuisance about the premises. Many who have provided barn cellars over which the cattle stand, and into which the manure is dropped, also lose much of the liquid excrement by failing to provide a suitable absorbent. In summer, some farm- ers yard their cows through the night, others only to milk them, then turning out to pasture. Yet, of these, many pay no at- tention to the valuable droopings of the cattle, allowing the same to go to waste by washing or blowing away. Others carefully gather the solids into heaps f ^r future use, while few or none make provision for saving the liquids. A very small but thiifty class of farmers are careful to provide absorbents in their barnyards to receive the droppings, both solid and liquid. After the yard has been in use a while they plow and harrow it, thus thoroughly mixing the droppings with the absorbents. This process is repeated at intervals through the season. Through such a method a large amount of fine rotten man- ure is secured, forming a most excellent top- dressing for grat.;. Again, in the matter of keeping hogs shut up in pens, the latter bscome an intolerable nuisance in many places unless a liberal stock of some suitable absorbeut is supplied for the animals to work over and incorpor- ate with their droppings. Through neglect of this precaution vile odors emanate from the pecs, often entering the dairy room, to contaminate the milk, cream or butter. With a fair chance hogs will make a large amount of first-class manure, and which is more stimulating in its application than many of the commercial fertilisers on the market. The droppings of the hen-roost, mixed with dry earth or plaster, are in- valuable. Sink drainage, chamber slops and soap-sods, when absorbed by some suitable substance, are transformed into ex- cellent fertilizing material, instead of runn- ing to waste about the door yard and ren- dering the premises unwholesome and un- healthy. Deodorizing substances, such as dry muck, earth, road-dust or plaster, may be used to convert noxious matters from a nuisance into a source of income. Thus the farmer may render his home more healthy and his farm more fertile. Care in these maiteis may sive the money, at least in part, now spent in the purchase of commercial fertilizers. Few farmers exhaust the do- mestic supply of fertilizing materials. â€" Cul- tivator. Hints In Saving Uanure. Until the tillers of the soil cease to be careless about saving and applying all of their domestic fertilizers, they shotild be stimulated to activity by constant remind- ers upon this important subject. As our farm land tends towards exhaustion they need assistanrt from some source to aid na- ture in her work of restoration. Worn-out lands may be restored to fertility by rest. Doing ber Italy Nobly. It wis the act of an honest, fearless little woman that brought Ellery H. Andrews to justice. She was his wife, and when he confided to her the secret that he had rob- bed the bank by which he had been employ- ed she turned ou him and said "Harry, you must go back to the bank and canfess what you have doue." He hesitated and seemed to wish to avoid a confessicii. " If you do not, I will. It is right," was all the plucky woman said. Saturday noon Mr. George Sturges, Presi- r'ent oi the Northwestern National Bank of Chicago, was surprised to receive a little tear-stained note from Mrs. Andrews. It in- formed him that Ellery H. Andrews was a thief. That evening Mr. Sturges went to Andrews' home, a little cottage in the vil- lage of Downer's Grove. The heart-broken wife met him at the door and ushered him into the presence of the defaulting husband. He said nothing, but waited for the sentence of the man whom he had robbed. There was a scene in that little cottage, but at the conclusion of the interview Sturges left with a written confession from Andrews. The wife, although expressing the utmost devo- tion to "her husband, did not ask that he be forgiven, but rather wished that he be dealt with as his crime merited. In the confession Andrews admitted hav- ing stolen about 310,000. He did not know where the money had gone, he said. For five years he held the position of correspond- ent of the bank, and was a trusted employe. Oae year and a half ago he was married to the woman who gave him up to righteous judgment. The testimony cf the case was submitted to the grand jary of Cook County, and an indictment was found. Andrews was arrest- ed, and taken to the County Jail. Judge Gary fixed the bondsat §10,000. which he was unable to furnish. Mr, Sturges was seen, and said "Last Friday I saw Harry entering a sa'oon. Now, that is enough to cause the discharge of any man in our employ. I liked the young man, but I decided to dis- miss him. He admitted the charge was true, and I told him our contract was at an end! He probably went home, and in a fit of de- spondency he confessed to his wife. She is the noblest woman I ever saw. She did what she did because she thought it was right. He came to me recommended by the Bank of Commerce. The stealings cover a period of six months. Mr. Maynard said to me at the time 'Sturges, you have got a treasure in Andrews, There is not a crooked hair in his head.' I have since heard that he gambled. Experts have examined the books, and report that the deficit does not exceed what he admitted, I am very sorry for the poor wife. She is a noble woman, one ma thousand." ' CXIHE Ur PABIS. A Bemai-kato'e Increa«»-HabIU of the Crtminnl Classes. Crime of the most hideous description is on the increase in Paris. The greatest safety seems to lie in a continuance of the dense foas wherewith we have been blessed for the last six days. The malefactors themselves are apparently frightened. At any rate, a careful perusal of the police reports shows a decrease since last week. The supposition was confirmed by the commissary of police of one of the most dangerous quarters of Paris, This gentleman accounted quite logically for the diminution observable. The Parisian foot-pad and crib- cracker is mi epicurian in his way. He said l"He ob- jects to inclement weather, first, because he feels uncomfortable secondly, because it i interferes with business. The reason is not ' far to seek. So long as the weather is in any way bearable, the Parisians of any and every class turn out. Many of them get be- lated, attacked in the streets, or, if they es- cape that danger, find their premises rifled at their return. Servants are of little use. If of doubtful character, they are probably in league with the criminals themselves. If honest, they turn out also, or else go to bed or to a carouse with their fellows at the top of the house, where their rooms are invari- ably situated. The concierge is of no use to prevent crime. Though she is generally above suspicion as regards honesty, she is lazy, indifferent, and impertinent, and some- times all three, A male concierge who con- cerns himself with the affairs of the house is a rarity, except in the better class dwelling. In nine cases out of ten the concierge is a woman, widow, or married. If the former, she is frightened at her own shadow if the latter, the husband is generally absent when he is most wanted. He works the whole day. At 9 o'clock, or thereabout, he goes to the wine shop. The outer door is closed or open, as the case may be. The intruder has but to ring the bell, call out the name of one of the inmates, and obtain the run of the house. He can make his choice. He begins ringing on the first floor. If the door is opened, he has simply to inquire for no matter whom, seeing that the occupant of the first floor does not know his next-door neighbor on the same landing, let alone the family above his head. He shuts the door in the inquirer's face. The latter has the coast free, and repeats his mansuvre atevery door until his summons meets with no re- sponse. The rest is a matter of plain sail- ing. It is needless to say that bad weather reduces his chances to a minimum he must be hard-pushed indeed to go in search of business. If he has any money at all he goes to one of the theatres, but only to a certain class of them. The Gymnases, the Vaude- ville, the Comedie Francise, and the Odeon never see him within their doors. If he be of a refined turn of mind at all, he visits the Palais Royal now and then, but as a rule the Ambigu and the Porte St. Martin are his favorite haunts. Of cours3 not now, while Mme. Sarah Bernhardt is playing at the latter house. His invariable preference is for music. But for seats at the opera be- ing too dear, he would crowd its gallery whenever his means permitted. As it is, ho takes to the opera-bouffe. He very often forms part of the claque, I have known two or three that would whistle the 'Mascot,' or 'La Belle Helene,' from the first note to the last." â€" London Olobe. A Question of tbe Age.

The Briiifth Medical Journal, in an inter- esting article on breakfast beverages, ob- serves â€" " Each of our commoner breakfast beve- rages, namely, tea, coffee, and cocoa, pre- sent sundry relative advantages and dis- advantages, which have been well estab- lished by scientific experiments and general experience, and which are qualities that sometimes assume a special importance in certain conditions of health, habit, occu- pation, climate, and disease. Warm in- fusion of tea haw been proved to have a marked stimulative and restorative action upon the brain and nervous system, and this effect is not followed by any secondary depression. It further increases the action of the skin, and raises the number of the pulse, while it has little effect upon uri- nation, excepting simply as a watery diueetic. It tends to lessen the action of the bowels. Dr. Parks found that tea is most useful article of diet for soldiers. The hot infusion is a patent protective against extremes both of heat and cold and Sir Ronald Martin proved it to be particularly valuable in great fatigue, especially in hot climates. Coffee, like tea, when used as an article of diet, especially affects the nervous system. It is a brain -and-nerve stimulant in very large doses it produces tremors.' It increases the action of the skin, and it appears to have a special power in augment- ing the urinary water. It increases both the force and frequency of the pulse. Un- like tea, it tends to increase the action of the bowels. Coffee has been proved to be an important article in a soldier's dietary as a stimulant and restorative. Like tea it acts as a nerve excitant, without producine subsequent depression. It is serviceable agamst excessive variations cf cold and heat, and its efficacy in these respects has been established m antarctic expeditions, as well as m India an other hot climates, Dr Parkes pomted out that coffee has a special recommendation in its protective influecaj against malaria. While admitting that the evidence on this point was not strong, he held It to be sufficient to authorise the large use of coffee in malarious dietricts. Coffee should be nsed as an infusion.

A WeU-lmown GanttMiuui'B Pbllan- tropby and tba Commotion Cantod fey one of BU Letters. Rocfiester Democrat and Chronicle, We published in our local columns yester- day morning a significant letter from a gentleman known personally or by reputa- tion to nearly every person in ihe land. We have received a number of letters protesting against the use of our columns for such " palpable frauds and misrepresentations " therefore, to confirm beyond a doubt the au- thenticity of a letter, and the genuineness of its sentiments, a reporter of this ptaper was commissioned to ascertain all the possible facts in the matter, Accordingly he visited Clifton Springs, saw the author of the letter, and with the following result :â€" Dr. Henry Foster, the gentleman in ques- tion, is 63 or 64 years of age and has an ex- tremely cordial manner. He presides as su- perintendert over the celebrated sanitari- um which accomodates over 500 guests and is unquest'onably the leading health resort of the country. Several years ago this ben- evolent man wisely determined to be his own executor; and. therefore turned over this magnificent property worth $300,000, as a free gift to a board of trustees, representing the principal evangelical denominations. Among the trustees are Bishop A. C. Coxe, Protestant Episcopal, Buffalo Bishop Mat- thew Simpson, Philadelphia, Methodist Episcopal President M. B. Anderson, of the University of Rochester Rev, Dr. Clark, secretary of the A, B. C. F, M., Boston, The benevolent purpose of the institution is the care â€" Ist. Of evangelical missionaries and their families whose health has been broken in their work. 2nd. Of ministers, of any denomination, in good standing. 3rd. Of members of any church who otherwise would be unable to secure such care and treatment. The current expenses of the in- stitution are met by the receipt from the hundreds of distinguished and wealthy people who every year crowd its utmost capacity. Here come men and women who were once in perfect health, but neglected the first symptoms of disease. The uncer- tain pains they felt at first were overlooked until their health became impaired. They little realized the danger before them, nor how alarming even trifle ailments might prove. They constitute all classes, includ- ing ministers and bishops, lawyers, judges, statesmen, millionaires, journalists, college professors and officials from all parts of the land. Drawing the morning Dimocrat and Chron- icle from his packet, the reporter remarked, " Doctor, that letter of yours has created a good deal of talk, and many of our readers have questioned its authenticity." "To what do you refer?" remarked the doctor. " Have you not seen the paper " " Yes, but I have not had time to read it yet." The reporter thereupon showed him the letter, which was as follows Cliftox Spktncs Sanitakicm Co Clifton Springs, N. Y., Oct. II. 1S83 Dear Sir I am using Warner's Safe Cure, and I regard it as the best remedy for some forms of kidney disease that we have.

Yours truly [Signed] HENRY FOSTER, M. D. "I do not see why anybody should be skep- tical concerning that letter," remarked the doctor. " Isn't it unusual for a physician of your standing and influence to commend a propri- etary preparation!?" "I don't know how it may be with others, but m this institution we allow no person to dictate to us what we shr 11 use.
