Make np the deficiency in grain and, if oats are fed, twelve qaarts par day Is as mnch as a horse can digest well and, nnless they are digested, of coarse they do no good. Above all feed regularly, and do not ovtr- feed. On the other huid, do net expect a horse to do heavy'work on light rations. The Apple's Enemy. libitt it need hardly be said, is the codling moth or apple worm. The only nice thing about it is its entomological name, Oarpo- capsa psmonella. This moth m«kes its ap- pearance in latter May or early Jane, and it is well to be prepaTod to meet It when it somas. Tnpa have been invented for this insect, and various means suggested et stay- ing the advances and preventing its ravages. Professor Oeok asserts, that Paris Green and London Purple If mixed with water and sponged on the trees " it is sure to kill this arch enemy of our most valued fruit." He has found that a pound of the poison mbced with 100 gallons of water, and kept wall mixed, Is stiU cfiFaotive to kill the larvae as they attempt to enter the apple. One or two applications of the poison te tiie trees, made soon after blossoms fall, will thin almost to extinotion net only the codling larvse but all other insects 'present, as the canker-warm, leaf-raller, and various oater- C liars. The probabilltiea are that iii those oalities where apples were so abundant last season, there wUl be few enough at beat this year, and we can't afford to give many to the worms. Potato Flaatiiu;' It is oustemary in most fanning sections to plant potatoes in tbe early spring, and once for all. By this we mean that there is only one season of planting and only one crop to harvest. But in view of drought and bugs, a late planting, say along in June, might make a decided and desirable change, rtda planting leaves the tuber formation for early tall, about the time fall rains should prevail. Moreover, during harvest time, when grain must be garnered, is just the time when the potato crop needs attention and if it does not have It, weeds will soon pre empt the territory to the disadvantage of the potato crop. But late planted pota- toes will not need so maoh attention daring the busy harvest seaaon. The late crop can be dug and marketed when labor is cheaper, and the market is.usually better. In order to insure a good erop at any time, the ground must be kept mellow and soft, and a slight scratching ever with a cultivator, as opper- tiAdty permits, will have good results. Feed for fiuttei. It is not necessary to feed oily food for a large production of butter. On the contrary nitrogenous food mixed with selected food rich fai starch and peouliarly well flavored fatty matter is preferable. It is a fact that oils taken into the digestive apparatus are largely absorbed direony by tbe blood and are carried, without chuge. Into the milk, tiins giving te the butter a flavor like that of the food. Bat when peas, bran, malt, sprouts, and other food rich in nitrogenous elements, and fat which have an agreeable flavor, are used with commeal or other starchy food, the whole la thoroughly well digested, and pass into the blood and the milk in a changed form, and not directly. The butter is thus of a better quality than when oO meals are fed. The aeleotion of food for dairy cows is a matter for the greatest oare, and also for individual experi- ment. A good m||ture of food for cows used for making butter Is 100 pounds of peas, or Sonthem caw peas, 200 pounds of cam, and ^0 pounds of fine wheat or rye bran, all ground t^pthar. To eight quarts af this meal may be added four quarts of theronghly soiled malt spranta and one of oottoB-aeed meal for a f uU daily allowanoe, divided into three feeds for a luge full milk- ing c ow. The Color of the Eye. Some curious researches have recently been undertaken by Swiss and Swedish phy- sloiana an the color of the eyes, but without any apparent purpose. Fw oesiTanienca all ayea were divided into' blue or brown, the various shades of gray eyea being olaasified aooarding to the premlnenoe of blue or brown in their oolor. Some of the oanclndona from a great many observations are theae That women with brown eyes havelwtter pro- spects of marriage than those with blue tut the average number of ohUdren is greater with parents whose eyea are dlssim- flar. In children both of whoae parents liave blue eyes, 93 per cent inherit blue eyes but in children both of whoee parents have brown eyea, only 80 per oat. have brown eyas. The above results were raaohed In SwItearland. Ia Swadsn the dlsoavariei ware not quite tiia same, ^le woman with brown eyea were more numerous there than the men with brown eyes, but brawn eyes ue apparently inoreaslng there as in S wit- aariand j » â-  i Iha Pert Phyrioian at PliHadelphia, Dr. H.

The practice of scalping is not peculiar to the American aborigines. Seuthul, In his ' Recent Origin of Man," quotes from Her-, odotus to show that the Scythians aaed to scalp their fallen enemies. In the present time the wild tribes af North-aaatem Bsn- gal use the scalping knife.

A Paris mOdloal sedety, seeking evidence from many sources concerning the conta- giousness of pulmonary consumption, has forwarded questions on the subject tt every practicing physician in IVaace. Similar hiqalries in Baglaad and in (Germany have not been ptrtlonlarly aucoessfnl, only 1,500 out of 23.000 English practitioners answer- ing, and but 200 Germans out of 16,000.

He once treated an American mother who still nursed her child, who was then two and a half years old; One morning when called to be nursed tills Infant pollto- Ivdedhied, saying: "No, I thank you, dear mamma, the nursing Is tee tedious for me." The mother waa then oenvlnosd that she had bettor wean the prodigy. The simplest and least expensive method for removing saltpetre exudation from brick work when the efflorescence is in position where the sun and wind do not have free ascaas Is to wash it off with dllnted hydro- choohloric or common muriatic add. of com- merce. About half a pound of the add Is used with an ordinary pailful of water, the application bting made with a sponge. Oonsldering the number oimateoric stones whioh reach the earth's surface. It would not be surprising If many livea had been destroyed by them. It is stated that loss of life resulted from a large fall in Africa; that about the year 10:iO many persons and animals were killed that In 1511, about 5 o'clock one evening, a priest was struck and killed and that still btor, in 1650, a monk was killed. But theae, according to Mr. James B. Gregory, seem to be the only in- stancss recorded of death from falling me- teorites. A German entomologist, F. Dahl, clainii that spfdiars have perfect vision only at a very short distance. Their sense of touch is consequentiy remarkably well developed, enabling them to locate duturbanoes In their web.
