The water of wells sunk near barnyards is often unfit for use, even when the danger of contami nation by the inflow of unfiltered surface water is effectually guarded against. On this point the experi ments of Dr. Lissauer, as translated from Deutsche Vierteljahrsschrift in the Proceedings of the Institu tion of Civil Engineers, are not without interest. The results of fifty-one experiments to determine the absorptive power of soils point to the following conclusions, amcng others: 1. The liquid entering the pores of the soil displaces the air or liquid previously present, forcing the former upward into the atmos phere and the latter downward in to the subsoil or effluent water. 2. In order that the effluent water may not be directly polluted by the sewage liquid; the maximum supply of the latter must not be more than can be taken up by the pores of the soil. 3. Dry loamy soil absorbs more than peaty soil and gives up less, whilst dry sandy soil, on the con trary, absorbs less and gives up more. Consequently a loam fy soil, though it absorbs a large quantity of liquid, can seldom be irrigated; whereas a. sandy soi!,thuhi absorb but little, may often be irri gated. 4. The looser the soil the easier water courses are formed in it, and therefore the less can its maximum power of absorption be approached; otherwise the sewage liquid might penetrate the subsoil before the whole of the ground had been sat urated. 5. In order, therefore, that the affluent water may be protected from pollution it is especially ne cessary that the absorptive power of the soil should be known ; .but the determination is of no value un less it be made in a sample in which the natural position of the particles of earth have been undisturbed. TRANSPLANTING EVERdREENS. -A correspondent says that a long life of practice in landscape gar dening has convinced him that spring is not the time to transplant evergreens. From the 10th of September until the 20th of Octo ber is by far the better time. In the spring there is more hurry of work than in autumn, and conse quently the planting is not done so thoroughly as it should be. In Septem~ber and early October the nurserymen are comparatively at leisure, and can give better atten tion to the digging and to shield ing the roots from the sun and cool dry winds oefore they pack. In the &utumn-say from the 1st of September for three months-the evergreen is as near in its dormant state as ever, the ground is warm, and from the fall rains is moist without being wet, as in the spring, and, being warmer than the atmos phere, nature furnishes bottom heat and m:>isture sufficient to cause new roots to grow from the wounds made in digging. These new roots aid the tree or plant.to support itself during the winter, and in the spring supply food for growth. If the transplanting takes place in spring the roots are obliged to struggle to make new fibres in a cold soil, with the at mosphere twenty degrees above, and call through the leaves for fo od. The seeds of the common sun flower are valued as food for cattle and poultry, and an oil may be cx HO0W TO EXPLODE A LAMPI The Scientific American gives some of the circumstances which lead to the explosion of kerosene lamps, the philosophy of all of them being that the flame may pass down the wick and ignite tlLe -vapor which accumulates in the upper portion of the lamp. This vapor is not an explosive as the term is ordinarily understood, but s when it is confined so that the h gases resulting from its combus tion cannot escape freely into the open air the vessel containing it will be shattered. This ignition of the vapor may be brough t about as follows: 1. A lamp may be standing on a table or mantel, and a slight. puff of air from the open window or door may cause an explosion. 2. A lamp may be taken up quickly from a table or mantel and instantly exploded. 3. A lamp is taken out into the entry where there is a draft, or out of doors, and an explosion ensues. 4. A lighted lamp is taken up a flight of stairs, or is raised quickly to place it on the mantel, resulting in an explosion. In these cases the mischief is done 'by the air movement-either by suddenly checking the draft or forcing air down the chimney against the flame. 5. Blowing down the chimney to extinguish the light is a fre quent cause of explosion. 6. Lamp explosions bave been caused by using a chimney broken off at the top, or one that has a piece broken out, whereby the draft is variable and the flame un steady. 7. Sometimes a thoughtless per son puts a small wick into a large burner, thus leaving considerable space along the edges of the wick. An old burner, with its air draft clogged up, which rightly should be thrown away, is sometimes continued in use, and the final re sult is an explosion. EAnacr E.-Many years ago two of my children, one aged three, the other one year., had a terrible attack of earache all one day and night. --1 worked over the little sufferers, doing all I could think of, and trying remedies suggested by our neighbors. On the second morning of the attack, a lady came in and asked me if I ha.d tried burnt sugar. I told her no, that I had not heard of that. She told me to put some live coals on a tin plate, sprinkle some brown sugar on them, set a fuinnel over it, and then hold the child so that the smoke could go into the ear. I did so, using the same remedy for both little ones. The result was marvelous ; the pain stopped in stantly, and soon both little suf frers were in a sound, refresh ing sleep.- Germantown Telegraph. POT AND M1EDICIN-.L HERBS. No garden should be without a collection of herbs for uses as food and medicine. Rue, wormwood, tarsy, fennel, dill, sage, sum mer and winter savory, lavender, thyme, spearmint, peppermint, hoarhound, catmint, sweet mar joram, sweet basil, carraway, anise, cives, coriander, &c.. A separate plat of ground should always be kept for the above named and other plants of a similar nature. The soil should be made deep and good by taking away poor ground and replacing it with fresh loam or leaf mould. No manure should be used, but the ground should be kept loose and clean of weeds. [Practical Farmer. RUNNING FLOUR.-There are va rious causes for flour running when made into bread. Flour closely ground from damp and sprouted wheat will cause the difficulty in question. Another common source of this trouble is imperfect kneading and want of proper attention when the dough is ready for baking. Dough that is not well kneaded and attended to is almost certain to run. This part of the process of baking needs great care in order to insure good bread. A PPLE SHOR T-CAKE.-Make a soft dough as for biscuit roll out thin and put a layer in a jelly pan; over this spread a layer of stewed apples ;sprinkle over sugar and spice; dot with small lumps of~ butter; then put on a layer of dough, another of apple sauce, a vey~ thin layer of dough, and bake in a very quick oven. This is a most delicious dessert-dish, and may be served with or without sauce. edliscellaneous. ruTT'S PILLS A Noted Divine says rhey are worth their weight in gold. 1EAD WHAT HE SAYS: DR.

The Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report for the year 1875, speaks as follows: "There can be no doubt of the general adulteration of all malt liquors. In England and other countries, where heavy- penalties 3 are imposed, and an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and punish such frauds, by a system of inspection of alYmialt liquors manufactured before exposed to sale, the practice is very common. How much more in this country, where there are no laws on the subject, and no officer to carefully ana lyze the products of the brewery ? Some years ago, Professor Mapes, of New York, analyzed the beer from a dozen different breweries, and all were found adulterated C with noxious substances. It is said that the sale of drugs to brewers is a profitable part 'j of the trade. This is perfectly infamous. Cocculus indicus, (fish-berry,) nux vomica, (dog-button, from which strychnine is ob tained,) are some of the delectable substances found in beer! These are potent poisons, and the brewer found using them should be s drowned at once in one of his own vats. c The British Parliament passed a law to pre- 3 vent this nefarious business. The following a is an extract: 'No druggist, vender of or dealer in drugs, or chemist, or any others person, shall sell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing ~ them to be such, or shall sell or deliver to t any person on account of, or in trust for, any c -such brewer, dealer or retailer, any liquor called by the name of or sold for coloring, from whatever material the same may be made; or any material or preparation other than unground brown malt, for the darken ing the color of worts beer, or any molasses, vitriol, honey, quassia, coccolus indicus, grains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, or any extract or preparation of molasses, or ti any article or preparation to be used in worts g, beer for or as a substitute for malt or hops; ~ and if any druggist shall offend in any of these particulars, such preparation, &c., shall be forfeited, and may be seized by any officer of excise, and the, person so offending shall for feit five hundred pounds.' "Under this law, very many druggists and. brewers were brought to grief, and yet the -. practice continues. Unless the American public are ready to admit the immaculate purity and -innocence of American brewers, they must be content, while drinking their beer, to cherish the belief that they are at the same time guzzling some narcotic poison or T damaging medicine. In view of the unpre cedented growth' of the barley crop; of the great incr'east of the number of malsters and brewers; of the vast unknown quantities ofJ beer that are drunk in every city and almost every town on the continent, it is the dictate of sound wisdom that the attention of legis lators should be called to the subject of the e adulteration of our malt liquors, and severe tl penalties should be inflicted as a preventive." 1 JOHN C.

The adcii ions and alterations which have thus been ecessitated in the first and second por ions of the present volume are numerous nd important. * * * * * * * * "The advance of our knowledge of extra fcinal drugs has been even mbre exten ive, requiring the addition to the third part f the Dispensatory of accounts of no less han ninety-eight new substances, and, as a the cases of Propylamia, Nitrite of Aimyl, tc., a complete re-writing of many of the d articles. The additions of course vary a importance but many of them are be- ] Lved to be of cided value. "No care or labor has been spared to ren er the present edition equal in accuracy nd in completeffess to its predecessors. reat pains have been taken to omit super uous matter and to condense the text; but be additions have been so numerous that be work has been augmented by about eventy pages.
