A WELL-FILLED wood-house is a sure- sign of a good farmer, and the winter is the time to provide the wood, cut, split and carefully piled away, ready for the busy season.--Iowa State Register. A MAN took first premium on a " big crop" at our fair one year. I investi­ gated and learned that he was a very poor farmer, never studied principles, and that his big crop was the result of fortuitous circumstances altogether.-- Ohio Farmer. FEW men achieve success through luck. Especially is this true of the cultivation of the soil, where nothing is got for nothing; where there is an in­ timate relation Detween cause and ef­ fect, a just compensation for an honest day's work, a reward only for persist­ ent effort and steady purpose.--Massa­ chusetts Ploughman. FOR PRESERVING EGGS.--Mix half a pint of unslaked lime with the same quantity of salt and a couple of gallons of boiling water. When cold put in the eo-p-s; see t.hat thev are well cov­ ered wfth water and tfie resgel contain­ ing them kept in a cool place. The eggs should be fresh when put in, as one bad one will spoil all.--Scientific American. PROF. HALL lays down some posi­ tions, which, if followed by dairymen, butter and cheese would be eaten with better appetite. He says there are thoroughbred men as well as animals. Your thoroughbred man is essentially cleanly in his habits, and in his work. Hence such in dairying will commend themselves to their customers. Among such, even a fly in the cream will not be tolerated, and to such want of tidi­ ness in dairying processes would be in­ tolerable.--Iowa State Register. THE Rural New Yorker notes that, in drying, corn loses one-fifth and wheat one-fourteenth. . From this the esti­ mate is made that it is more profitable for the farmer to sell unshelled corn in the fall at 75 cents, than at $1 per bushel in the following summer, and that wheat at $1.25 in December is equal to $1.50 in the succeeding June. In the case of potatoes--taking those that rot and are otherwise lost, to­ gether with the shrinkage--and there is little doubt that between October and June, the loss to the owner who holds them is not less than 33 per cent. AMERICAN farming is now equal to any in the world. Our farms, gener­ ally, are cleaner and freer from weeds than foreign ones--with some excep­ tions--ana if we would use our native fertilizers, such as bones and meat refuse, and fish guano; our native foods, such as linseed and cotton-seed oil­ cakes, instead of selling to our foreign competitors; and also use those artifi­ cial fertilizers which are so cheap and effective, as an aid to increase our crops, we could excel the famed English farms in the product of the fields. We have this yet to do. All that is needed is intelligence and con­ fidence, that the more liberally we feed our soils, the more bountifully they will reward us with teaming harvests.-- American Agriculturist. Glanders. IT is said to BQ difficult to determine a case of glanders in fts first stage from distemper, farcy, catarrh, nasal gleet or even a cold. The prevailing weath­ er of December has been favorable for breeding diseases with horses as well as with the human race. And doctors as well as lexicons differ as to the defi­ nition of "contagious11 and "infec­ tiousIt is generally supposed that a contagious disease means one which is communicated by contact with a dis­ eased body, or the matter from such disease, while infectious diseases are communicated in the atmosphere by the breath or effluvia from a diseased body. The air becomes infected. If this definition be correct, glanders is contagious, and it can be communicated by contact with the horse, or the foul matter dropped from the nose or sores on fences, feed troughs, water pails, and even some contend that it can be communicated a short distance in the atmosphere. Glanders can also be engendered^ or originated without contagion or infec­ tion. Foul or closely-confined air in damp and impure stalls or pens will sometimes bring on the worst form of glanders. But there are but very few places so foul and damp as to engender this fearful disease. Glanders, like the leprosy, is general­ ly of slow progress, but fatal. It may be months and years after the disease has commenced its fatal work in the system before its character can be de­ termined. It is a rare disease in our clima'te, so much so that it is scarcely necessary to be alarmed at any Ordina­ ry discharge at the nose. In the more humid atmosphere in some parts of the United States, but more especially of Europe, it is well to look more serious­ ly at the first symptoms of this disease, i ouatt (who, by the way, is poor au­ thority, but the best we have) says the discharge, in case of glanders, may continue, in so slight a degree as to be scarcely perceptible, for many months, or even two or three years, unattended by any other disease, or even the ulcera­ tion of the nostrils, and yet the horse will be decidedly glandered and capa­ ble of propagating the disease. But so soon as the puss (gangrenous erup­ tions) mingles with the discharge from the nose, then the distinct character of the malady can be known. Glanders is a disease of the nasal cavities, but soon affects the glands, and the blood be­ comes poisoned, so that there is no re­ lief. The swelling of the glands is not a sure test that the malady is glanders, as this, is often the case with catarrh and distemper. But Youatt says the pe­ culiarity of the disease is that the swell­ ing is not in the center of the channel, but adheres closely to the jaw, on the af­ fected side. If it be glanders, there is no healthy, red color about the nose, but a dark purple, inclined sometimes to a little darker than a leaden color. It is well to recollect that the horse will communicate glanders to the human race, when it is one of the most diffi­ cult cases to control. We think it not necessary, here, to give all the symp­ toms in the progress of the disease, for if a man is fearful that the malady is on his premises, he should at once ob­ tain a scientific work on the subject and watch all the symptoms in its progress. But horses can and do have the glan­ ders spontaneously when they are not exposed to diseased animals. It is caused by insufficient and unwholesome food, foul air in confined places. There are frequently instances where cavalry horses have been taken in crowded ships for weeks or months, that from their confinement and foul air, the most virulent type of glanders has broken out, and proven fatal in a few days, and nearly all on board have perished, en­ dangering the lives of the crews and soldiers on board. Mules are subject to the malady, but far less in danger than the horse. Unless the diseharges from the nose have assumed the gangrenous type, and the constitution of the horse appears to be broken down, and the glanas swelled and confined close to the jaw so as not to be moved, there is no danger of glanders. But recollect that farcy, nasal gleet, or even a violent cold, if neglected, with continued bad treat­ ment and exposure, may run into the glanders. Mercy to the dumb brute as well as profit to the owners demand good treatment and comfortable quar­ ters for all animals.--Iowa State Reg- Conduct in Cm lr ftre. The following directions for conduct in case of fire are issued by the British Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire: "Every householder should make each person in his house acquainted with the best means of escape, whether the fire breaks out at the top or at the bot­ tom. " Inmates at the first alarm should endeavor calmly to reflect what means of escape there are in the house. If in bed at the time, wrap themselves in a blanket or bedside carpet; open neith­ er windows nor doors more than neces­ sary; shut every door after them. (This is most important to observe.) " I n t h e m i d s t o f s m o k e i t i s c o m ­ paratively clear toward the ground; consequently progress through smoke can be made on the hands and knees. A silk handkerchief, worsted stocking or other flannel substance, wetted and drawn over the face permits free breathing and excludes to a great ex­ tent the smoke from the lungs. A wet sponge is alike efficacious. "In the event of being unable to es­ cape either by the street door or the roof, the persons in danger should im­ mediately make their way to the front- room window, taking care to close the door after them, ana those who have charge of the household should ascer­ tain that every individual is there as­ sembled. " Persons thus circumstanced are entreated not to precipitate themselves from the widow while there remains the least possibility of assistance, and even in the last extremity a plain rope is invaluable, or recourse may be had to joining sheets or blankets together, fastening one end to the bed-post or other furniture. This will enable one person to lower all the others separate' ly, and the last may let himself down with comparatively little risk. Select a window over the" doorway rather than over the area. " Do not give vent to the fire by breaking into the house unnecessarily from without, or if an inmate by open­ ing the door or windows. Make a point of shutting every door after you as you go through the house. For this purpose doors enclosing the staircase are very useful. " Upon discovering yourself on fire, reflect that your greatest danger arises from draft to flames and from their rising upward. Throw yourself on the ground and roll over on the flame--if possible on the rug or loose drugget, which drag under you. The table cover, a man's coat, anything of the kind at hand, will serve your purpose. Scream for assistance, ring the bell, but do not run out of the room or re­ main in an upright position. " Persons especially exposed to the risk of their dresses taking fire should adopt the precaution of having all linen and cotton washed in a weak solution of chloride of zinc, alum or tungstate of soda." Are Plants Healthy In Sitelng-Rooius! TiiAT is, arc rooms in which plants are kept more healthful or less health­ ful than the same rooms without such plants? To answer this either one way or the other, it would be necessary to loiow how many and what plants are kept, and how they are kept; the size of the room and the exposure to sunshine and light, and, finally, how the room is heated. We believe that plants, as they are generally kept in sitting- rooms, are positively injurious to the health of the inmates. Such plants are never healthy. Scarcely one condition of a healthy existence is provided them. The heat of the room is always chang­ ing, to suit the people, not the plants. At night the temperature is generally too low, and oftentimes the air is im­ pregnated with deleterious gases that escape from stoves or heaters that are fixed to last through the night. Sunshine, the first necessity of their healthy existence, flits by them like a savory odor by a hungry man. The soil of the pots in which they grow, is almost always too wet or too dry. In the former case, they are like so many stagnant pools ^ that no doubt generate, though in minute portions, poisonous exhalations; and the same may be said of the green, slimy substance that toQ often is per­ mitted to collect upon the pots and remain for weeks at a time. If plants are healthful in sitting- rooms, it can only be because they erate more oxygen than they But this is true probably only erate more oxygen than they consume. " ly of plants in -vigorous growth; and the house plants of which we speak, instead of growing vigorously, are rather in a slow decline that, if permitted to con­ tinue long enough, would end in their death. We are fond of house plants. They invest home with an interest that nothing else can supply. But unless the pots are frequently and thoroughly washed, unless they are amply drained and the soil used so " light'1 that it cannot become "sour," we should an­ swer our question in the negative.-- Rural New Yorker. Outrage on Chinamen tn Nevada. Two CHINESE gardeners living near Franktown, in Washoe Valley, were fearfully mangled and afterward rob­ bed by two desperadoes on Wednesday night. The Chinamen were preparing their evening repast when the despera­ does entered, and without ceremony bound them bands and feet, tied their 3ueues together and ordered them to isclose where their money was se­ creted. The Celestials remained ob­ durate, exhibiting a decided and Un­ mistakable reluctance to shelling out their hoarded wealth. This so exas­ perated one of the robbers that he cut off the right ear of each of his victims with a bowie knife and severed the queues from their respective craniums. The unfortunate fellows were writhing in pain and agony, but would not re­ veal to their torturers where their money was hidden. The fiends then proceeded to gag their defenseless victims, after which they commenced a careful and systematic survey of every nook and crook about the premises. While engaged in this occupation they were startled by footsteps, and immediately thereafter a third China­ man came into the hut to see his friends, and was horror-stricken to see the plight in which they were. He made a move to retrace nis steps, but the ruffians were too quick for him. In the twinkling of an eye he was pounced upon and gagged, but not otherwise in­ jured. The search was then con­ tinued, and after the lapse of half an hour the enterprise of the scoundrels was substantially rewarded by finding a sack containing $1,200 in gold and silver, sewed up in a mattress lying on one of the bunks. This money the robbers appropriated to themselves, re­ mounted their horses and rode off where no one knows. Nothing has been seen or heard of the villains since. The poor mutilated and despoiled Chinamen were compelled to pass the night in pain and misery, having been gagged and bucked. At an early hour on Thursday morning thev were dis­ covered by a friend who called on busi­ ness, and thus were relieved from their unpleasant situation. The victims can give no further description of the rob-ers than that they were masked so that no features of their faces could be distinguished.--Carson (Nev.) Appeal. Modern Knowledge In the Talmni. DR. HERMANN ADLER delivered a lecture on the Talmud last night at the Jewish Workingmen's Club in Hutch­ inson street, Alagate, in the course of which he gave several illustrations, from passages to which he gave the references in the Talmud, of anticipa­ tions of modern science by ancient practice. Rabbi Gamaliel, he said, haa in about the thirtieth year of the com mon era a kind of orrery in his house. We are told in the Talmud that " Rab­ bi Gamaliel had a representation of the various forms and positions which the moon assumes at the period of her conjunct ion with the sun, and by means of these he was able to cross examine the witnesses who came to testify to the first appearance of the moon." it might be asked how the rabbis arrived at their extensive knowledge of as­ tronomy without possessing a tele­ scope. Now, he was not in a position to state with absolute certainty that thej- made use of a telescope with ob­ ject-glass and microscope, but he thought it clear, from a passage which he would read, that they possessed an instrument very closely resembling it. It was written that Rabbi Gamaliel was on board a ship which landed on Fri­ day evening after nightfall, yet the pas­ sengers were permitted to land be­ cause, he said, " I have been on the lookout and find that we were within the Sabbath-journey before dark." An­ other passage explains more clearly what is meant by those words, translated, " on the lookout." The citation runs, " Rabbi Gamaliel had a tube by means of which he could see a distance of 2,000 cubits by land and air; also 2,000 cubits on the sea." Galileo's e pur sc muove was anticipated by a rabbi, who derived the Hebrew name for the earth from a verb 44 to run," because it runs through space to do its mas­ ter's bidding. It is generally be­ lieved that the famous Ameri­ can, Benjamin Franklin, whose ob­ servations led to the modern knowledge of electricity, was the first to make lightning conductors; but it was written in the Talmud "one must not place iron in a poultry-yard from a superstitious motive, but if it be done on account of the thunder and light­ ning it is permitted." The passage has been recently quoted in Germany to prove that in the fourth and fifth cen­ turies after the Christian era the efficacy of an arrangement of metal to pro­ tect from lightning was known. It does not prove that they understood the rationale of the process, but the fact indicates that they were close observ­ ers of natural phenomena in those days. One of the greatest benefits which has been conferred on mankind was the use of ana>sthetics in surgery-- certain agents, such as chloroform, which enable a surgeon to perform the most painful operations without inflict­ ing suffering on the patient. There is clear proof that the use of such agents was known to the teachers of the Tal­ mud. We read in it: "They gave him to drink a potion, which cast him into a profound sleep, so that they were en­ abled to perform the operation of gas­ tronomy." The Talmud mentions ar­ tificial teeth, " a tooth that was put in," " a tooth covered with gold so as to stop and hide the decay." We find in the Talmud the first mention of insur­ ance--"there were societies of ship­ owners and ass-drivers, who agreed to make good the loss of a ship or an ass which any of their company had sus­ tained, provided that the loss did not take place through ' wilful neglect.' " With this quotation of a phrase, used in contracts, which still agitates the English Law Courts, Dr. Herman Adler brought that part of his lecture to a close. He observed in the sequel that the Talmud has very few references to trade. Most of the Jews mentioned in it were students, artificers or agricult­ urists.--London Times. --The New. York Graphic wants to know what becomes of all the smart children. --A correspondent of the Dental Cos­ mos says that the best treatment in re­ gard to offensive breath is the use of pulverized charcoal, two or three table- spoonfuls per week, taken in a glass of water before retiring for the night. > AM Open Letter.
