PROTECTION" FOE YOCNG PLANTS. * I A very cheap and effective protector for j young plants may be made of the collar j for pipe ti'c-s. which can be bought at nearly all factories, of drain tiles. The i collars are in sections, about the same in ! length as ordinary pipe tile, with grooves | partly separating the individual collars, j "Wh^n broken anart the collars are each I ttbout four inches long and two or three j inches in diameter. One of these is set j rj- around each plant and pressed slightly J into the ground, so as to exclude cold j "winds, cutworm-, bugs and other enc- j Mies. The collars are practically inde- I ' r" . Ktiuctible, and with reasonable care a I tupply v.-ill last for years.

Thus there is a great difference n the amount or potash required by dif U plants. As stated by tiie iveaExperiment Station, an acre of yielding twenty bushels requires iv.-cnty-eight pounds ox potash, an avarage crop of potatoes re100 pounds of potash per acre, and ; of tobacco yielding 3S00 pounds 'es aud stalks require over 200 s.

After the weather gets cool :n the fall, and after settled weather begins in the spring, and when grass has made a good start to grow are the best urnes for fattening hogs, and so far as possible the breeding should be timed so :hat the sows will farrow in the right rwicrtn Pi/r= in thp fill! should come i ;ar!v enough to give them time to make i good start to irrow before coid, freezing weather sets in. Your pigs are easily stunted, and a little exposure to severe L-old will often stop their growing. In [>rder to l>e profitable hogs must make a ?00d growth from birth to maturity. At the start one of the most important items with fall pigs is to provide them with a dry, warm, comfortable shelter. To attempt to keep them warm by feeding corn will increase the cost so as to icave little if any margin of profit. With stock oi' all kinds animal lieat can be - - n_. Li maintained much more economically uv providing shelter than by feeding corn. Some corn will be necessary, unless the shelter provided is considerably above the average. Corn is one of the very best materials that can be used to good advantage all winter. At the same time it should not be depeijded upon entirely. The pigs will make a better growth at i less cost and keep in better, health if a Gjood variety of food is furnished. Wheat bran, ground oats, and barley will add to the value of the ration and are much better for the development of bone and muscle than corn, and this is often quite ~ a +a rr> noK ilH lieniv JLL iv ic^u ivv tiiuv^ ecra, keeping even the growing pigs so fat they will not make as good a growth as ,,they shouid. The development of bone and muscle is fully as important as fat. Clover hay should be relished by the growing pigs as well by the breeding stock. Artichokes and small, unmarketable potatoes will add to the variety. A sufficient quantity should be supplied to keep them in a good, thrifty con^uion. "\V> Tplir?hle rules as to axumtity^. Rra oe given. The best plan is to be ! guided by the condition of the hogs. After cool weather sets in corn can be made the principal food, using the other materials to make up a good variety. Let them run out whenever the condition of the Tveather will admit, but they should have access to shelter all the time. Growing pigs need plenty of opportunity to exercise, and will thrive better if confined in a close pen. Keep their quarters clean, use plenty of bedding, and change it every few days to prevent it becoming foul. Filth breeds disease, and it is very important with hogs, as with other stock, to keep them in good health. 1 FAILM AXD GABDEX X0TES.

The surest way of gettingrid of thistles is to keep them cut down as close to the j ground as possible. Clover never ought to be allowed to set too dry before hauling in; there is always much waste.

A liberal feeding of pure wheat with the morning ration tends to benefit egg production. The sweepings about the granary can be used in this way very profitably. Eggs are very nourishing, and contain much brain food. They agree with tha most delicate stomach.

Surely the event commemorated is worthy of all the architecture and music and pyrotechnic? and eloquent and stupendous "planning and monetary expenditure and congressional appro priations wtucn tne most sanguine unrisuau i patriot has ever dreamed of. Was any voy- i age that the world ever heard of crowned with such an arrival as that of Columbus and his men?

Leaving to others the discussion as to the site of such exposition?and I won der not taat some live or six 01 our cuies u.i e : struggling to have it, for it will give to any i city to which it is as signed an impulse of prosperity for a hundred years?I say, lcsv- j ing to others the selection of the particular j locality to be thus honored, I want to say i some things from the point of Christian ! patriotism which ought to be said, and the j earlier the better, that we get thousands of | people talking in the right direction, and ! that will make healthful public opinion. I beg you to consider prayerfully wiiat I fesl called, upon of God as an American citizen and as a preacher of righteousness to utter. ; Jtty first suggestion vs ttiat it is no- wise, > as certainly it 13 not Christian, to continue j this wide and persistent attempt of Ameri- j can cities to belittle and deprecate other ! cities. It has been going on for years, but now the spirit seems to culminate in this discussion as to where the World's Fair shall bs held, a style of discussion which has a tendency to injure the success of the fair as a great moral and patriotic enterprise, after the locality has been decided upon. There is such a thing as healthful rivalry between cities, but you will bear me out in saying that there can be no good to corns from tae uncanny trunks saw aoout esc!i j ether by New York and Chicago, by Chicago ' and St.Louis.by St.Paul and Minneapolis, by Tacoma and' Seattle, and all through the | States by almost every two proximate cities. All cities, like individuals, have their virtues and their viccs. All our American cities should be our exultation. What churches! What public libraries! What asylums of mercy! What ... .demies ; of music! What mighty men in j law and medicine and art and scholarship! j What Schools and colleges and universities! ! What women radiant and gracious, and an i improvement on all the generations of women since Eve! What philanthropists who do j not feel satisfied with their own charities 1 luitu outsy get into tne nun areas 01 inousanas and the millions! What "God's acres'' for ! the dead, gardens of beauty and palaces of | marble for those who sleep the last sleep: j Now stop your slander of American cities, j Do you say they are the centres of crime i and political corruption ? Please admit the fact that they are centers of intelligence and generosity and the mightiest patrons of architecture and sculpture and pointing and music and reservoirs of religious influence for all the continent. It will bs well ror cite country districts to ceasa talking against the cities, and it will bo well for the city of one locality to stop talking against the cities or other localities. New York trill uut get ins worms rair oy depreciating j Chicago, and Chicago will not g^t Ibe ; W<orld's Fair by bombarding New York. Another suggestion concerning the coming ' ?xposition: let not the materialistic an:l | monetary idea overpower the moral and reii- ! ?ious. During that exposition, the first time j in all their lives, there will be thousands of j , people from other lands who will see a coun:ry without a state religion. Let us, by an ] ; iicreased harmony among all denominations i >f religion, impress other nationalities, as ; ;hey come here that year, with the superior advantage of having all denominations ; ;qual in the sight of government. All the ; uiers and chief men of Europe belong i :o the state religion, whatever it may 1 )e. Although our last two Presidents nave ; >een Presbyterians, the previous one was an j : Spiscopatian; and the two previous Metho- i 1 lists; and going further back in that line of ; J Residents, we "find Martin Van Burea, :i ; , )utch Reformed; and John Quincy Adams i Unitarian; and a man's religion in this I ountry is neither hindrance nor advantage ! ; n the matter of political elevation. All ! ' 2urope needs that. All the world needs that. j ' L man's religion is something betwe?n him- ^ elf and his God, and it must not directly or j ] directly be interfered with. Furthermore, during that exoosition. i Christian civilization will confront bur- j 1 tarism.

I You must remember that the Pentecost J mentioned in the Bible occurred when there was no printing-press, no books, no Christian pamphlets, no religious newspapers, ur.d yet the influence was tremendous. How many nationalities were touched? The account says: "Parthians and 3Iede=- and Eiamitek.'' that is. people from the eastern countries; I "Phrygia and Pamphylia," that is, ths west- I era countries; "Cyreae 'and strangers < ? j Rome.

Instead of the j sistscn or eighteen tribes of people reported j ? nil ;" !(> fill,'!' nations of I Europs and Asia. North and South America, j will be represented at our world's fair in < ISfri, and a Pentecost here and then would mean the salvation of the round world. But, you say. we may have at iba~ fair the people of all lands and ail the machinery for gospslizatiori, the religious printing presses and the chui ches, but all tuat would not ! make a Pentecost; we must have God.

But now it is cool and deliberate murder, and clear out at sea a bombshell can be hurled miles away into a city;, -or while .thou-1 sands of private .soldiers, who have #0 inter. j est in the contest, for they were con" j scripted, are losing their jives, their General may sit smoking one of the best Havana cigars aftsr a dinner of quail on toast. It may be well enough for graduating students of colleges cn commencement day to orate about the poetry of war, but do not talk abont the poetry of "war to the men of the Federal or Confederate armies who were at the front, or to some of us who. as ! members of the Christian commission, saw j the ghastly hospitals at Antietam and Hagers- j town. Ah! you may worship the Lord of i Hosts, I worship the "God of Pea?:?, who-i brought again from the dead our Lord .T^sas j Ul'TlSt, mat great Olittpilt'i <1 i~::c ai.t. jy. War is an accursed monster and it was ! born in the lowest cavern of perdition, end J I pray that it may speedily descend to the place from which it arose, its last sword and shield and musket rattling on the bottom of | the red hot marl of hell. Let there be called j a peace convention for 1S02. with delegates sent by all the decent Governments of Christendom, and while they are in session, if you should some sight go out and look into the sky abovo the exposition buildings, you may find that the old gallery of crystal, that war; taken down after tlie Beth- | j ehem anthem of eighteen e?n 'curies ago was sung out, is rebuilt again in the clouds, and | the same angelic singers are returned v. ith j the same librettos of light to chant "Glory to i Ucxl m tiie nigiiei.c. ana on earm i.t-uwr, ^w., , v.-Ul to men." _ | Again, I suggest in regard to the World's ! Fair that, while appropriate places are pre- ' pared for all fore'gn "exhibits, we make no j room for the importation of foreign vices. America lias enough of its own, and w?- need j jso installments of that kind. A world's fair i ivili bring all kinds of people, good and bad. : The good we must prepare to welcome, the ; bad we must prepare to sbuu. The attempt will again be made in 1 SftJ, as in 1S76, to break up cur American Sabbaths. That attempt was made az the Philadelphia Centennial, bat. was defeated. \ V\?s? Vmt i Sabbath on earth. We do not want it broken down, and substituted in the place thereof the Brussels Sabbath, the Vienna Sa!>L>ath. the St. Petersburg Sabbath or an}' . of the foreign Sabbaths, which are no Sab" baths at all. I think the Lord ij more than generous in asking only fifty-two days out of the olio for His service. Ycu let the Sabbath 50 and with it will go your Bible, and after j that your liberties, and your children or your grandchildren will be here in America under i x despotism as bad as in those lands where j they turn the Lord's day into wassail and i [roiie.

But there is a snobbery ; tnd iiunkeyisrn in American sceiaty that | uns after a grandee, a Duke, a Lord or a Prince, though he may b? a walking Ian- j etto and his breath a plague. It mak?s he fortune of soma of our qneeas of iociety to dance one cotillion with one of : hes'* princely lt-pers. Some people cannot j re t their hat ofT quick enough u h .-n they ; .uch a foreign Lord approaching, and th.y do sot care for th? mire into which they drop | heir kn*.*es as they bow to worship. Let no j plendvr of pedigree or apr ponip and para- ; j.ieraai:a 01 circumstance in axe mm auui- > ive. There is only one set of Ten. Com- [ mandments that I ever heard of. and no class of men or women in all the world are excused from obedience to those laws written by finger of lightning on the granite- surface of Mount Sinai. Surely we nave enouga American vices without; making any drafts upon European vice for 1S92. By this sermon I would have the nation made aware of its opportunity and get ready to improve it. and of some perils and gee ready to combat them. I rejoice to beiiev-e that'the advantages will overtop everything J in that world's fair. What an introduction to each other of communities, of states, of republics, of" empires, of zones, of hemispheres! What doors of information v/iil be swung wide open lor the boys and girls now on the threshbold! What national and i:i- l -1 ?;-;on' What crowning ! nf industry with sheaves or' grain, and what imperial robing of h^r with embroidered fabrics! What scientilie apparatus! What telescopes for the infinitude above and microscope? for the infinitude beneath, and instruments to put nature io the torture until she tells her last secret! V.'hat a display of the munificence of the God who has grown enough wheat to make a loaf of good bread large enough for the human race, and enough cotton to stocking evtry i'oot, and enough timber to shelter every head, making it manifest that it is not God's fault, but either man's oppression or indolence or dissipation if there be any without supply. Under the arches oi the chief building of ovnnsition let caoital and labor, too long estranged, at last be married, each taking i tlie hand of each in pledge of eternal fidelity, while representations of all nations bland i round rejoicing at the nuptials, and saying: ' What God hath joined together let not man put asunder."

A new company lias been started in ' Paris Laving for its objects the working in France and abroad of a system of telephonic additions by means of an automatic apparatus. A Paris stationer has just announced a discovery, which will probably ir.nkc his i fortune. It is that of an ink warranted j to fade off the paper in a week, without | leaving the slightest trace. From Australia comes a report that r. mineral which has been discovered in New South "Wales contains all the prop erties of the very finest sienna and tii.it it j is in every way suitable for painting-, staining, dyeing and ink. Professor Elihu Thompson has devised j an electric welding ear, which makes , continuous rails of the track over which j it passes. In thus welding the rails, it i is proposed to have a break at every 100 feet, to allow for expansion. Different classes of substances have been found to affect the organs of taste j in the following order: Bitters, acids, j saline substances, sweets and alkalies, j The taste nerves are nearly 2000 limes : as "sensitive to quinine as to sugar.

WISE WORDS.. Flatter a fool and you have already won his friendship. Busy people arc less liable to notice I the wickedness of their neighbors. When poverty comes in at the cottage j door, true love c'oes at it with an ax. J he most refined persons never betray i anxiety for fear it will cot be noticcd. A person's success in life depends upon whether he will learn something himself or depend wholly upon what is taught to him. If you want to have a man for your friend, never get the ill-will of his wife. Public opinion is made up of the average i prejudices of womankind. "When you compare the number of thoughts that comes into a man's head j with the number that goes out of his ! mouth, man is discretion itself. The condition of the world would 1 be improved if men were to think J less of dishonor of submitting to wrong ! and more of the dishonor of doing it. There is time enough for anything in j the course of the day, if you do but one thing at once: but there is not time enough in the year, if you will do two j things at a time. People are all striving to get up in the i wavM but. if oravitation was suddenly : removed from the earth, people would then be praying for some adhesive arrangement to stick them on again. Things which never make a man happy develop a power to make him i strong. Strength and not happiness, or : rather only that happiness which comes j by strength, is the end of human living, i Some people are dependent upon their '< training because they are ignorant of themselves, and the more familiar they become vrith trained manners, the less ; liable they will be to become acquainted with their natural ability.

It is quite as important to do- ; mestic happiness as a cultivated car. for I which so much money and time are ex- ; pended.

" - ' : \ ? ~ - V~- "* -/ TTindoo WomPIL. On the slopes of the Himalayas, says j a correspondent of the Denver 'Republican j in a letrer from India, there are many j curious tribes. Some of the tribes near j Parjeeling reckon a journey by the num- i ber of quids of tobacco they chew upon ' the way, and some of the most gorgeous ; specimens of Hindoo jewelry I have seen i 1 saw on the women of the Himalayas. I 1 remember one mountain pink who had a r * _ a 1 fifty rupees strung arouna ner necK ana . whose Hmbs were loaded down with silver dollars upon her ears, and her mouth was covered by a flat, gold nose ring. Some of these Himalaya tribes have one wife to four men, and polyandry is common. Ia Bombay are the prettiest women of India. They are the parsees. "With delicate, olive-brown skins, they are tall and well-shaped, have beautiful eyes aud fine intellectuaLfaces. They dress in silks of the most delicate colors, aud the dress seems to consist of one large piece of silk which is wound around the waist and then carried up over the body and the top of the head, so that the face looks out and the whole hantrs in a beautiful drapery. Many of them, I note, have silk stockings, and I! slippers to match the color of their dresses, and they are the brightest and prettiest v;omen I hare ever seen.
