He is now selling railroad ties, telegraph -poles and firewood at handsome figures. One-fifth of the trees are left standing for future use.--Pacific Rural Press. THE FIRST FOOD FOB CHICKENS.-- Jfust before the chick breaks from its narrow cell, the last of the yelk is taken into the stomach, which gives it the strength to make its own grand effort for freedom. This food will certainly last twelve if not twenty-four hours after it is free. During that time no other food is needed; only rest is required for the little stranger after its exhausting labor. --Poultry World. A SUGGESTION TO GRAPE PRUNKRS.-- A correspondent of the Ohio Farmer gives as the results of his experiments with grapevines that it is of the greatest advantage to prune them so as to have the main arms as long as possible. He has trained some to a length of twenty- four feet, and purposes letting them grow longer. The advantages are that much less summer pruning is required when there is no time for it, they are more easily protected in winter, and they bear more and larger bunches than vines set closer together, covering the same extent of trellis. IN France a gentleman owned a grand' country estate ; surrounding his mansion were orchards containing fruit trees of all kinds that could be acclimated, about three acres in plums, which were healthy-looking trees, blooming each spring, but none of the fruit coming to maturity. He became disgusted and turned the plum orchard into a chicken yard, leaving the trees for shade. To his profound astonishment the next sea son the trees were fairly breaking down with ripe, full-matured fruit. The poul- try had accomplished what man had ut terly failed in--successfully battling the curculio. * VENTILATION OF A SMOKE-HOUSE.-- But little ventilation is needed for a , smoke house ; a smoldering fire that will make a dense, cool smoke is what is wanted. If there are any openings needed for the admitting of air, to sustain the necessarily slow combustion, they must be very small, and may be at the bottom instead of at the top, where smoke only is wanted. Flies must be kept out by all means, and, if any ventilating openings .•are made, cover them with fine wire gauze, and provide something to close them with when the fire is not used. To protect the meat the house must be quite close and dark.--American Agricultu rist ONE pound of corn is equal as food to about three and three-quarters pounds of potatoes, or eight and one-half pounds of cabbage, or to eleven and one-half pounds of white turnips. Analysis gives the nutritive value of corn to be, com pared with that of oats, as 70 is to 60. An average of several tables takes the value of a given quantity of oats to rep resent 100, while the value of the same quantity of corn would be 95, weight be ing identioal in each case. In practice, one bushel of corn is equal to two of oats for fattening, but oats are altogeth er better'for the growing animals than corn. STANDING WATER.--A very important work is to let off any water that accumu lates upon the surface. This requires constant attention, and the use of a hoe or a shoveL Whether there is a crop in the ground or not, it is equally necessary to do this thoroughly, else the soil is soaked and dries very slowly. The amount lost through water remaining upon fields would each year buy for every farmer who permits it a good paper and more books than he could well study in a year. Barn-yards, especially, should be freed from water; the wash from the roof should be car ried off before it has soaked through the manure and dissolved out all the valua ble parts of it.--Canada Journal. About the BOOM. CURRAHT Pot.--Four table-spoonfuls of currants, five of water, four of sugar, and one of flour, will make one pie; bake in two crusts. LEMON CAKE.--Four cupfuls of flour, three cupfuls of sugar, one cupful of butter, one cupful of milk, five eggs; season with lemon. To CLEAN COLLARS AND WRISTBANDS. --Grease the soiled parts before wetting with any kind of fat or dripping; let them remain a few hours, or over night; wash with soap in hot water. They will become wonderfully clean. Coco AN TTT CAKE.--One cupful of but ter, two of sugar, four eggs, one tea- spoonful of soda, two of cream tartar, in one cupful of milk; one grated cocoa- nut should be mixed with flour and the whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff froth. Flour enough should be used to make it as stiff as pound cake. How TO PAINT WOODWORK.--In paint ing woodwork, a priming coat followed by a dark coat, such as chocolate or purple brown, and finished off with a coat of common varnish, is cheaper than, and as durable as, four coats of common color; it looks better, is more readily executed, and bears washing well.-- Economist. How TO PKHKBRTB ICE.--During ill ness ice is generally needed in the sick room. The following method of pre serving it is highly recommended, and is certainly worth trying: Cut a piece of flan nel about nine inches square, and secure it by ligature round the mouth of an ordinary tumbler, so as to leave a cup- shaped depression of flannel within the tumbler to about half its depth. In the flannel cup so constructed pieces of ice may be preserved many hours,1 all the longer if a piece of flannel from four to five inches square be used as a loose cover to the ice cups. Cheap flannel, „ with comparatively open meshes, is preferable, as the water easily drains through it and the ice is thus kept quite dry. When good flannel with close text ure is employed, a small hole must be made in the bottom of the flannel cup, otherwise it holds the water, and facili tates the melting of the ioe. Placed in a cup of this kind, two ounces of ice has been known to last for nine or ten hours. Why Old People Remember Things. Ths persistence of yarij impressions, the uiiuu d6cxum al most to have ceased to register new ones, is in remarkable accordance with the law of nutrition. It is a physiological fact that decline essentially consists in the diminution of the formative activity of the organism. Now it is when the brain is growing that a definite direction can be most strongly and persistently given to its structure. Thus the habits of thought come to be formed, and those nerve tracks laid down which (as the physiologist believes) constitute the me chanism of association, by the time the brain has reached its maturity; and the nutrition of the organ continues to keep up the same mechanism in accordance with the demands of its activity so long as it is being called into use. Further, during the entire period of vigorous man hood, the brain, like muscles, may be taking on some additional growth, either as a whole or in special parts, new tissue being developed and kept up by the nutritive process, in accordance with the modes of action to which the organ is trained. And in this manner a store of " impressions" or traces is accumulated which may be brought within the sphere of consciousness whenever the right sug gesting strings are touched. But as the nutritive activity diminishes, the " waste" becomes more active than the renovation; and it would seem that while (to use a commercial analogy) the "old-estab lished houses" keep their ground, these later firms whose basis is less secure are the first to crumble away--the nutritive activity, which yet suffices to maintain the original structure not being capable of keepiug the subsequent additions to it in working order. This earlier de generation of later formed structures is a general fact perfectly familiar to the physiologist.--London Mirror. The Public Printing-Office. John D. Defrees, Public Printer, haa issued the following circular : It is now more than sixteen years since the establishment of the Government Printing-Office. Since that time com positors, pressmen and bookbinders have come here from every part of the coun try for employment Many of them ob tained it, and have by hard work and economy secured homes for their fami lies, which in many instances have not been entirely paid for; others, who do not own houses, rent them or board, and nearly all have families to support out of their daily earnings. There are now more sob^r, industrious and capable workmen of this character here than can at any time be employed. It would be unjust and cruel to discharge any of these workmen merely to put others from a distance in their place, and it will not be done. As letters have been re ceived from a great number of persons asking employment it is deemed best to adopt this method of informing all con cerned that it cannot be had, so that the expense of coming here may be avoided. It must also be understood that this establishment cannot be made either a religious, political or charitable asylum. It is a great workshop--the most exten sive publishing-house in the world-- and must be managed with the same re gard to economy as is observed by the managers of similar private workshops, or else it were better for the Govern ment to abolish it. JOHN D. DEFREES, Public Printer. Perplexing in the Extreme. A tramp sat on a doorstep back in Pine street yesterJay aiternoon, tenderly caressing his head and shoulders, when his " pard" came up. " What's the matter with you, Jaoob ?" "I'min doubt, I'm in doubt" " In doubt; what about ?" " Well, Henry, I went into that alley gate up there to get something to eat. I might a-knowed somethin' 'ud happen, for there was a dead book-agent layin' on the flower-bed, and a liniment man with the side of his head all eaved in, leanin' up agin the peach tree." "Well?" "You see, I allers wuz ventursam, an* I axed a woman standing there would she give me a rhubarb pie and a piece of fresh shad." " Well, what happened then ?" "Now, Henry, that's what I'm in doubt about I don't seem to make out whether the baok porch fell down on me, or I stepped on a keg of dynamite, and it busted under me. Why, Henry, I'd sooner work half an hour than go into that yard again."--Eastwi Free Press. Tobacco and Fire-Crackers, All the small boys in the country will be grateful to The New York Tribune for saying this: "Pipes have caused more fires than fireworks ever did. But What a " Good Fellow" Is. The word "goed"--according to the Pittsburgh Leader--is one fitted to sub jects of the widest difference and oppos ing nature, and is finely fitted to illus trate the fact that the object of words, instead of being the expression of ideas, is really to conceal them. A good fellow is far from being a fellow who ig He never has his eves more than half open, is good-natured, and as gentle and mild as a mouse. He takes " the 'World and all its hollow crew" pretty much as he finds it, and never contemplates any improvement in it, as tearing it to pieces to make it run better, as babies do with watches. The typical good fellow will be sure to agree with you on all sub jects, religion, politics, etc. He resem bles a tame bear, beiag somewhat clumsy, but capable of being led else where. He will tell you good stories and you will listen to him, and if not he will kindly listen to your bad ones. He will eat or drink at any time or place. He will never be the first to break up a party, but will sit by until midnight, en tirely oblivious of his wife and children. A good fellow is quite in his glory when he is either half-drunk or asleep. He cares for nothing, but is at everybody's service ; he bears no resentments, but is obliged to everybody but his own fami ly, whose existence he seems to be scarcely aware of. His mind, like his body, seems to have acquired a chronic habit of quietly sitting down and calmly " waiting for the facts." He is a nose of wax, to be pulled or squeezed into any shape. He has no mental or moral character. He is not a good man, or a bad man, but is a good fellow; he has neither wit nor wisdom, but is a good fellow; he has done nothiug that any body can recollect, but is a good fellow; in snort, a complete nonentity, a hideous failure, but nevertheless a good fellow.

Medicine has alno l>een subject to revo lutionary disturbances. Wlien Drs. Harvey and .Tenner announced their discoveries, thoy were held iu contempt and ridicule by an incredulous and ignorant public, yet to-day thoy are re ceived and honored by all as benefactors. When Dr. Pierce announced his Discovery, many seemed to doubt, and were skeptical conoerniiig all medicines and doctors, but proof of merit has disp'lled all doubt, and to-day the Golden Medical Discovery is the standard remedy in curing the most obstinate diseases of the liver and blood, having almost entirely superseded the old-time sat sapaiilUut by reason of its supe rior merits. NOBWICH, Chenango Co., N. Y., NOT. 8, 1876. R. V. I'IERGE, M. D.: I was afflicted with a scrofulous affection on one of my legs. It was very troublesome for over two years, so much so that I could not wear a boot, and I had to keep my leg bandaged. It resulted in a raw sore. It got so bad that it became a gvnoral talk that I would have to un dergo ampul ation of tiiolimb. One physicinn told me he never w&w such a sore cured. 1 commenced taking your Golden Medical Dts- ooverv together witn vour Pellets as directed on the bottlcs.aud when lhad consuiwud si* bottles of Discovery, my leg was entirely well, and has remained so ever since--a {Miriod of over two vears--and I would not swap it for fifty wooden legs.

The secret of hale and vigorous old ape lies not only iu tak ing care of one's boaltli iu early life, by the ob servance of sanitary roles, but also by judunous medication when tho premonitory symptoms of bodily disorder manifest themselva#. Indigna tion, ' bowel and liver complaints, are fruitful causes of injury to the constitution. These dis eases should be, therefore, checked without de lay. The best inoduMiio for the purpose is Hoi*- tetter's Stomach Bitters. This standard pre paration disciplines the digestive organs, gives renewed impetus to the bilious secretive funo- tion, and exerts a beneficial influenoe npon the organs of urination. It has no rival as a remedy for and proventiye of chills and fever and bil- ous remittents, infuses vigor into the debilitat ed frame, and is an excellent appetizer and nervine.

Mr. Dawes asked him if he wanted to use it for the same purpose that the English and French do. The eager painter answered, " Yes." Dawes then turned to a tariff dictionary and read: " This article is chiefly used by the English and French to practice most gross deception and frauds in the mixture of paint" The Washington correspond ent of the Troy Times, who tells the story, adds that the Yankee did not fur ther press his claim, and withdrew. dorsed by the medical profession, and pre scribed daily in the Charity Hospital and other Hospitals iu New Orleans.
