to better manuring and culture. Tb?

Potato**.
S. B. Johnson, of Madison County,
N. Y., gives the result of his experi
ments with potatoes. He says the
Early Bose is ten days earlier than any
variety he is acquainted with. It is
very productive, and good for summer
winter, and spring. He says care should
be tsken in selecting good shaped, well
ripened tnbers for planting. This is
of more oonseqnenoe than the size of
the potato. Cut large, fair potatoes
into one-eyed pieoes, taking oare to
have eqoal portions of the potato with
each eye. Very small tnbers may be
quartered. Plant in hills or drills; in
hills t}|ree and a half feet each way, but
on rich land they may be planted muob
oIBser in drills. Cover with plow or
hoe' three ihches deep, and as soon as
the plant appears go over the ground
with a two-horse harrow: when three
inches high run a horse diamond plow
close to Jhe hills each way, throwing
the earth from them. When six inches
high throw the soil back to the hills
with a larger plow. <As soon as the po
tatoes begin to bloom the ground should
be left undisturbed and the large weeds
should be pulled out by hand.

During the prooess of ohurning a
certain uniformity of temperature moat
be observed or the butter will bo soft
and spongy, instead of being firm and
ocmpaot. The agitation, also, of tbe
cream should be regular?neither too
qniok nor too slow. II the agitation is
too quiok the butter will make and un
make itself belore the churner is aware
of it, as too rapid motion induoes fer
mentation, which, when it has reaohed
a oertsin point, is entirely destructive
of anything like the-possibility of mak
ing eren moderately good or well
tasting butter. If, on the other hand,
the motion be too slow, the agitators in I
the ohurn fail to produce the desired
separation of the oomponent parts of
the oream, and the oonsequenoe is that
after ? good deal of time spent in lazy
action, the churner is just as far from
his bntter as he was at the beginning of
his labors. The best temparature for
the eream in ohuming is from 50 deg.
to 60 deg.
CoaMnctlon of a Piggery.
The hog thrives better in the sunlight
than ill the Hark ; and for the' health of
animals your piggery should be as
light as your own living room. If any
class of men ought to be indicted for
cruelty to animals it is that olass who
do not provide light stables for their
horses, oattle, sheep, and swine. Be
sides, if such men would stop and
think they will know that it will profit
them as much to furnish light as it will
harm Hie animal to be depriyed of it.

A* By* WMnmw^ Sum of Tk?lr
. ..-. TwimUM.]
A latter writer in Siam who al
lowed to witness the tricks of " tha
Sacred Troop of Jugglsn - attached to
? pagoda, thus describes what ha aaw:
The place in which the oeremonies were
held was a square vault, so lofty that I
oould not see the oeiling, and I ?hnnH
aaj not leas than a handed pacee long
and wide. All aroond tha sides roee
gig+ntic oolnmns, oarred into Imagea
of Boodha always, ret with a thousand
variations from the oentral plan, a
thousand freaks of fancy, a thousand
grotesqueaiee, through which shone,
%he more effectively for the departures,
the eternal calm, the stagnant unper
turbed eostaoy of apathy of Boodna's
remarkable faoe, with the great pendant
ears, and the eyes looking sut beyond
?on into the supreme -wfttfuln^sa of
Nieban?s faoe that onoe 'seen can nev
er be forgotten.
By degrees I came to see the plan of
this evidently subterranean vault, and
to look with wonder upon the simple
grandeur of its msssive architecture,
which was severely plain, exoept so far
as the carving of the great oolnmns
went. At the furthest end of tho hall,
resting against the oolumas, was a
raised dais or platform, covered with
red cloth. This stage was raised be
tween three and four feet above the
floor of the vault, and was about thirty
flve or forty feet deep and one hundred
and fifty broad. Behind it a^irtain of
red cloth hung down from the capitals
of the towering columns. In front of
the stage, just about the spot wh< re the
pulpit of the orchestra in a Greek the
atre would be, was a tripod-shaped
altar, with a broad oenser upon it, in
which was burning a scented oil, mixed
with gums and aromatic woods that
diffused through the whole vault a pun
gent, sacramentel oder.
Suddenly there was a wild and start
ling crash of barbario music from under
the stage?gongB, drums, cymbals, and
horns?and with wonderful alertness
and a really indescribable effect a band
of naked men came out from behind the
curtains, bearing each a scented toroh
in his hand, climbed the oolnmns with
the agility of monkeys, and lighted each
a hundred lamps, strung from the base
almost of the columns sheer up to the
apex of the vault, which, I could now
see, rose in a lofty dome, that doubtless
pierced far up into the interior of the
pagoda proper, the appearance of which
outside I have described. The illumi
nation from these multitudinous lamps
was very bright and brilliant, too soft
to be dazzling or overpowering, yet so
j penetrating and pervasive that one
missed nothing of the perf^l^ight of
the day. I oould distinctl^^Btee the
ascending and diminishing rings of ihe
cupola above us, and the rows of brick
work, only thinly whitewashed, that
supported it.
The din of the homble orchestra in
creased, and the band of old women
came out from under the stage singing
(or rather shrieking out) the most dia
bolical chant that I ever heard. The
red curtain fluttered a little, there was
a dull thud, and there, right before us,
alongside the censer, stood a very old
man, but wrinkled, with long hair and
beard white as ootton fleece. His finger
nails were several inches long, and his
sunken jaws were horribly diversified
with two long teeth, yellow andogreish.
He was naked, exoept for a breech
cloth, and hin shrunken muscles shone
with oil. He took the oenser in his
hand and blew his breath into it until
the flame rose twenty feet high, red
and furiona; then, with a sudden jerk
ing motion, he tossed the burning oil
towards the crowd of squatting specta
tors. It shot towards them a broad
sheet of terrible flame?it descended
upon them a shower of roses and ja
ponioas, more than oould have been
gathered in a cart. Turning the censer
ottom upward, he spun it for a minute
upon the point of his long thumb nail,
then flung it disdainfully toward the
audience. It struok the pavement with
a metallio olang, bounoed, and rose,
with sudden expanse of ?ings,a shriek
ing eagle, frightened horribly, and
seeking flight towards the summit of
the dome. The old man gazed a mo
ment upwards, then, seizing the tripod
upon which the cense"* baa stood, he
sent its legs apart with a nervous hand,
straightened them a gainst his knee,
and hurled their, dart-like, towards the
J^oy glancod upward with a
gilded Hash, a id instantly the eagle
came fluttering down to the pavoment
in onr midst, de*d, and three horrible
cobras coiled about him, and lifting
their hooded h'-fla defiantly, and flash
ing anger out <>f t leir glittering eyes.
The musio sin ? ked still wilder, the
snakes coiled and plaited themselves
together in a rhythmic danoe, lifting
the dead eagle npon their heads, and
presto I right in our midst there stood
the tripod again, with its flickering
flame, and it* inoense-savored breath.
A more'perfect illusion was never seen.

L Star? far Story^Trtkr*.1
Three little neighbor children, with
our own two little folks, suds t nappy
croup la the nursery one sno*T morn
ing, a Tittle after Christmas. The new
games, the new blocks, the new toys and
p iota res, Mid the happy stories of the
Christmas delights to be rehearsed with
eager interest, would give occupa
tion. So I knew the little party were
best left to their own sweet devices.
Two good hours passed while I plied
my needle in another room?no jnore
penetrating sound rsaohing me from
that quarter than now and then a peal
of merry child- laughter. There ^a? ?
sense of peace all through the house,
when suddenly my ears were smitten
with a loud and bitter wail of " I'want
to go home! I want to see my mamma!"
I arose, dismayed, to go to the rescue,
meeting my own little girl flying
towards me on the wsy, her faoe pale
and anxious, and " Oh, mamma, oome !
Lou is crying so 1" There was the lit
tle group in the nursery, sll subdued
and sorrowful, gathered around the
heart-broken six-year-old darling, who
stood all shaken with sobs, with bright
eyes overflowing, snd little trembling
hands trying to fasten the ooat and tip
pet. I took her in my arms and tried
to kiss her into oo^fort; but nothing
would do, in tms bitter extremity, but
her own mamma, and the sobs and tears
burst out afresh.
?' Why, what is it, Lou ? what is it,
darling?" Still only "I want to see my
mamma !"
?? Has anybody been unkind to you,
Lqu ?" I asked, fearing that some
quick word had wounded the sensitive
fife art.
" No, no P
" Haven't you been having a good
time ? Were you playing ?"
" No. Nannie was reading. Oh, I
want to go home."
So, puzzled and distressed, I fastened
the warm wraps, and let her go. Then
my little daughter put her arms about
my neck and said: "Mamma, I read
Buch a dreadful, pitiful story; and it
was that. Lou couldn t bear it. I
wouldn't have read it if I had known
what was coming. It was in one of my
Christmas books."
" Why, what was the story ?" I
asked.
"It waa-about a roor little girl
burned to death; and there was another
about a mamma who died, and the papa
didn't lo\e the baby."
" Did nobody cry but Lou ?" Then
the chorus said, "We didn't cry," but
said one, " It has made suoh an ache
here "?putting her hand cn her baby
heart. And another spoke of a bad
feeling in the throat, and another was
still with lips all a-tremble, and all the
little faces were dim with trouble. So
I took away the cruel book, sent my
boy out doors in the snow storm with
his shovel, and suggested for the little
girls a good game of housekeeping."
And so the roses came back.
That night before the bed-time I
took the book with the pretty binding,
the burning taper on the oover, and the
graceful poem on its title-page dedica
ting all " To my daughter Florence^"
and asked my littl^ girl to show me the
sorrowful story. So I was pointed to
" A Child's Tragedy."
I read it with quivering nerves? tue
horror of a fiery death to a golden
haired baby girl, drawn with graphic
pen. Nothing spared?neither the tor
ture of the slow death, nor the father's
agony, nor the mother's overwhelming
grief. I felt hot with indignation that
I had been botrayed into putting such
a story into the sensitive hearts of my
ohildren.
The book was a present from a kind
friend, who surely only meant to give a
pleasure ; and the fact that the writer
was a lady of culture, and a mother,
had disarmed me of any usual suspi
cious supervision, and in the Christmas
pressure I had trusted it unread. I
oould only say to my little ones, "I am
sorry you have read this. Try not to
think of it."
Nannie said. "It is more like a
?nightmare,' I think, than a 4 bed
time ' story."
And Alfred's great eyes put on a far
away sad look as he said: "The tvor?t
was when he burst out with sack love *i
referring, I suppose, to the father's ter
rible grief.
I do not believe in leaving children's
hearts unmoved by sympathy with the
ordinary sufferings and troubles of life.
I Would educate them into a keen per
oeptiou of a life outside their own
aaeitered affection*. I would have
them know the joj of giving, not only
the gifts that pass from hand to hand, ;
but the tender sympathiet from heart
to heart. Bat a? long as may be I 1
would screen them from a knowledge of j
all the possible anguish that the world
holds?from the horrors of violent 1
death, and from stories of orime and
unusual suffering.
No one should put before the child
puhlio any story book who has not him
self or herself paused through a sensi
tive ohildhood, and kept the memories
fresh.
Think of that bed-time honr, or
rather the hour after bed-time, when
the little heart should drop asleep
hnshed with father's or mother's kiss,
and pretty memories of play, or tender
imaginings of beantifu (things. Then
think of breaking into this holy land of
dreamy th ought with a vision of sudden
death?a sweep of Are and of horror
the picture at a desolate home?a cruel
parent?or a hopeless sin- .
In lutnro years a knowledge of such
things may and must come to our
darlings. Let us make thun brave and
strong, and unselfish if we nan, to aaeelr
whatever oomes ; but there is no help
ing influeooe in putting into childish
hearts " nightmareM piotuma of dread
ful things tney oould not else discover.
Let our story-tellers forbear from
ohild tragedies, whioh make the else
delightful pages as dangerous as the
columns of a sensational qewapaper;
and let them take heed lest they unwit

tion of partial extermination for the
benefit of the raoe, or total extremina

delayed, they sasemble in oonntleee
thousands in some of the mountain val

rast army of exiles being selected, they

line, a living stream, often exceeding a
mile in length and many yards in
breadth, devouring every green thing
in their line of march, the oountry over
which they have passed looking as if it
had been plowed or burned with fire.
They march principally by night and in
the morning, resting during the dsy,
but never seek to settle in any particu
lar locality, however abundant food msy
be in it, for their final destination is
the distant sea, and nothing snimate or
inanimate, if it oan be surmounted, re
tards the straight onward tide of their
advance. Foxes, lynxee, weasels, kitee,
owls, etc., hover on their line of

The Liquor Question.
It is understood that a band of pray
ing women is organizing in this city,
says the New York Graphic, for an
attack on the liquor dealers. Now these
women ought not to commit the mis
tske of confining their operatioos to the
poor who keep the corner groceries.
Let them begin with the clubs?the
places where their husbands and sons
gratify their drinking propensities.
Ther*? are the Union League, the Man
hattan, the Union, the Lotos, the Cen
tury, and the Arcadian clubs. In these
clubs the bat-tender has a busy life,
and the sound of the popping cham
pagne cork is constantly heard. They
are frequented not only by the men
whose wives and mothers are contem
plating a temperance orusade, but by
editors who conduct the organs of pub
lio opinion. It is at the olub-bouses, or
in front of them, that the first temper
anoe prayer-meetings should be held.
When these have been purified it will
be time to attack the hotels and res
taurants. To begin and end with the
corner grog-shops would be a fatal
error, and would at once be construed
as an attack on the poor man's whisky,
while the rich man is suffered to drink
his brandy and soda and his champagne
cock-tails unmolested.
Nil Desperandum.
A real healthy man or woman, is a
rarity; and what wonder? when we
realize that it is the custom to overload
the stomach, and then produoc chronic
disease by the use of spirituous liquors,
" Tonics," " Appetizers," " Restora
tives," etc. Haying first produced
disease by indiscretion, the victim
wonders why "nothing does him good,"
Just so ; and the reason is that they
all, or nearly all, find a basis in alcohol
?or poison. To all thus disoonraged,
we can conscientiously say, " make one
j more trial." Discard spirituous medi
I cines, and give nature a chance, aiding
i her in the atrnggle by using one of her
I own pure and unadulterated herb reme
dies, in the shape of Vinegar Bitters.
