FROM a pamphlet upon t\siatic cholera, issued for free circula tion by Dr. L. H. Harrij^-pf ? Pittsburg, Perm., ve make th\\ following extracts concerning the dis- > ease, iti prevention and proper methods of treatment : In "Wood's Practice of MediciaeH 1855, " we read that although long known j ia India, the cholera first lagaa to at - tract the attention of the medical pro- ! feasioa geaerall y in the year I8J7, whea f it brokerout aet an epidemic with, great ! violence iu Bengal and then commefceed ^ the fearful march which did not j until it had encircled the globe. When Dr. Wood wrote, ic 1854, there seemed to be a great uncertainty in the I minds of the medical profession and ? much diversity of ojfiaTo.n as to the na ture.of the specific cau>:e of the disease. I ISven-^t that eariy dafi the *'germ I theory, " though not understood as. now, was vagriely hinted at by mbre~than one. On this question Dr. Wood writes, **some have been disposed to refer the results to invisible animalcules" and while admitting that many circumstances tend to show that such a theory is with in the bounds of a reasonable proba bility, ad<is, "still it rau*t be confessed ; that the opinion is witbou;; pruOtf as 1 these animalcules have never been de- i tected.'r It fcfjs been reserved for medical > scientists of our oxzt day and within the j past ten or twelve years to develop and . prove the to- called germ theory, and it j is now generally accepted by all that the f diseases referred to by Dr. Wood, { catarrh and influenza, are also diseases ; propagated entirely by distinctive germs, which have been isolated and very minutely described. Professor Koch, the ^ eminent bacteriologist of Berlia, by his . personal experience and experiments' ia India, ia Egypt and elsewhere during ' the epidemic of 1??3 and 1&34, has es tabiished beya&d lerious question the fact that cholet^in its malignant for.n is also a bacterial or germ disease, ^haviag isoiated and identified the v "comma bacillus" as the peculiar germ elwaye existing ia every case ofpgenuine cholera and never fou:id under other circumstances. r Tb?? cholera genus may exist to a limited except it. the air' during periods whea the disease is epidemic, but moie generally find tjaeir way iaf*.o the system by the driakjag^of impdnb water, and "* one of the beit precautionary methods is to use no water for drinking except that , - which has been boiled. Spring water and that from ^shallow wells should be ?specially av^ided^ The development of ,tbe g?rm theory of this disease enables the medical pro fession to control ;t. to a greater extent > than formerly and suggests many means i of prevention entirely unknown during fermer epidemics. This cholera germ if j readily propagated and rapidly multi plied ia the alimentary c.-taal, and its tirst existence is shown by a diarrhoea, which should be checked at once, and if possible by retnedlea which at the same time destroy the germs of the disease ; the delay of a single hour in such cases . is hazardous, since it is only ia the earlier 5 stages of the disease that it is likely to n yield to medical treatment, and hence ; _ v the great necessity for having some re- ! liable remedy a/ways at hand for such ! emergency unfil the services of a physi- | cian can be secured. Hence also the i propriety of using preventive medicines, ?riNH'19TP5S?ifi^^tentioa jfeo the diet | aad ordinary tanitaPj i^tion3 during a period whea- cholera* aad other infec ; tfous diseases are prevalent.

Rye is a crop easily raised and is sub ject to fewer casualties than wheat and ?grows freely on soils tea1, will not produce remunerative crops of other grains. It may often be profitably sown In the fall on light soils as a kind ot lupplementary crop which may be used for winter pasture when the ground is c frozen, and also be cut for soiling in early spring, when tbe green stubble can be turned under as a fertilizer for a coming crop. Gn ground weli adapted to the culture of the sweet potato rye is an excellent crop to precede it, and, whether pastured or cut for soiling, the remains of the rye when plowed under | will be of considerable' benefit to the jroot crop. Then, if equal care is takei to turn under the sweet potato vines after the harvesting, successive crops may be raised with but little fertilizing material other than what is furnished by the rye and the potato vines. The latter contain much fertilizing matter, which, if all saved, will go a good ways toward making up for what is carried off j in the tubers. The trouble in such cases often is that the rye'is so promising in its appearance in the spring that the in ducement to keep it a few weeks longer lor the grain and straw is too strong to ! permit of its being plowed under for ; green manure. While the amount of ! fertility derived from the green> rye would not be large, the cost of the eeed I would be small, and the seeding would be done at a time when farm work is I not pressing. It would therefore seem ! that such a use of land at a season when i it would otherwise be unemployed might ! often be advisable.- -New York World. CUTTING OTF TH& BLOOMS. /" , The old fancy that catting off the_ | dIoojqs of 'potatoes will increase the ! weight and quality of the tubers seems j to have broken out afresh, but careful { experiments made ia England and Swit zerland disprove this. The theory was. given to the world by a German ex ; perimenter, who published the result* (ft a series of experiments which showed that a considerable gain in the weight ; and quality of the tubers resisted in cutting off the blooms. An account of a series of experim ents made by an intelligent Englishman seem to be so thorough that it is wortfc while to give his results. His expeiiments ex tended over a period of three seasons, with but qne variety, f'aterson's Vic toria potasoj a profuse bloomer, and at that time in general cultivation in Eng land. In no single year was there any difference iu the quality and weight of the potato, and the. average results showed that there was no gaia derivable from this operation. Thorough experiments were made in Switzerland to test the truth of this j theory. The many varieties of potatoes grown in that country were subjected to the experiment. The test was carried thlduglI"seYerarseasons in order to make the result more accurate^ At the close of the experiments the conclusion reached did not corroborate the theory advanced by the German experimenter. The Englishman, after reviewing the experiments made in Switzerland and those by himself, draws this conclusion: 4 'This system, therefore, is of do use to U3 while we have our present varieties of potatoes, no matter what it may be else- | where, and if properly tested it will in all probabilities be found to be of little value anywhere." ?

While libera) feeding is neces^ry to secure a good growth, poultry should never be so well fed that they will not willingly forage for something to est. An old gobbler or pea fowl will often get very troublesome in fighting the other poultry; when this is the case the quicker they are got rid of the better. The cost of feeding a thoroughbred fioc.k is^? gr?at?r than for scrubs, while ?-such brfds give their owner far mo^e pleasure an<i he can occasionally sell fowls or eggsi at a good price. The farmer who raises hogs the flesh i of which is fiae will be able to get more tnan the inaiket price if he once secures a reputation for such. The big, coarse, and over-fat pork will not bring much, money, for the simple reason that it doe? At sell very good when placed on the market. All farmers d6 not use coal, but those who.do can make good use of the ashes. , It is well known that excellent walks can be made of them; but they are valuable for another purpose. The hogs will be benefited greatly if the ashes are fed to them. They correct the acidity of the pigs stomach, and do a vast amount of good. The Berkshire are one of the oldest breeds in existence, ao& one of their drawing cards is a disposition to take on f^ora the start a great amount of fle;a and fat. Another point in their favor is the immunity which they nave froa dis ease.

Visitors fom the West maj have noticed him, for he is a pathetic object and attracts much attention. Hii helplessness has aroused all the latent pathos in hearts that beat beneath ragged jackets in that neighborhood. A Toca | writer tells a pleasing anecdote concern ing him, which I reproduce: The newsboys afl sympathize witi him. They help him fold and arrange I his papers. On waim days they tak< turns fanning him, carry his little" fold ing tab is and assist him in various ways.

This spider that Solomon saw on the wall might have said : "I can't weave a web worthy of this great palace; what can I do uid all this gold embroiiery?.

In the Lord's army there is or^er for promotion, but you cannot be a general until you have been a captain, a lieutenant and a co?one'. It is st?o by step, it is inch fcy inch, it is stroke bv stroke that our Christian character is bni'lde \ There fore be content to do what God commands you to do. Go 1 is not ashamed to do small thing.-. H?* is not as iirna d to be founl chiselin * a grain of sand, or helping a honeybee to construct its ca 1 witn mathematical ae-uracy or tingeinjra shell in th? *frf. or ?h*ptng the bir of a chaffinch.

If only the thouvm ltb part of a talent, emplov ??. faithful unto death, and I will give thee the crow 1 of life." I tell you if you are not faithful to 3o1 in a small sphere von would be indolent and insignificant in a lar^e sphere. jr Again, my text teaches me that repulsive ness and loathsomeness will sometimes climb up into very elevated places. You wou d have trfei to kill the spiler that So! omon saw. You would have sail: "Hiis is do place for it. If that spider is determine.! to weave a web, let it do so down in the cel ? T or 1? ?o ne dark duageon." Ah ! the spider of the text could no; be dis couraged. It clambered on ani climbed up. higher and higher and higher, until after ewhile it reached the king's vision, and he eaid, "The spider taketh holl with her "bends, and is In kinds' palaces." And so it often is now that things that are loathsom3 and repulsive get uo into verv elevated places. The chu-ch'of Christ, for instance, is a palace. '1 he King of heaven an i earth lives in it. Ac^ordiuj to the Bible, her beams are of ceciar, and her rafters of fir, and her windows of agat3, and the fountains of sal vation dash a rain of lizht. It is a glorious palaco? the church of God is, ani yet some- u times unseemly ani loa?h9omi things creep UR^ioto if ? evil speaking and rancor and s.ander and backbitmg and abuse, crawling up on the walls of the church, spinning a web from arch to arch, and from th? top of one communion tankard to the too of an other com :i union tankard.

I do not know but that Christ referre 1 to the real juice of the grane when He said that we should drink new wine in our Father's kingdom, but not the intoxicating .>iuff of this world's brewing. I do not say it is sc. but I have as much right for thinking it is so as ycu have for thinking th? other way. At any rate, it will be a glorious banquet.

"Ob.w you say, "that is too grand a p!a~a for you and me.'' No, it is not. If a spider, according to the text, could orawl up on the wall of Solomon's palace, shall not our poir souls, through the blood of Christ, mount up from the depths of their sin and sham*, and finally reach the palace of the eternal King? Years ago, with lanterns oni torches and a guide,, went down in the Mammoth cave of Kentucky. You may walk fourteen miles an1 s?e no rnnlight. It is a stupendous place. Some places the roof of the cave is a hundred feet high. The grottoes filled with weird echoes: aiscades falling from invisible height to invisible death. Stalagmites rising up from the floor of the cave? salactites de fcending; from the roof, of the cave, joining each other and making pillars of the Al mighty's sculpturing. There are rosettes o! amtjfchyst in hails of gypsum. As the gui le carries his lantern ahead of ybu toe shadows have an a peirance suoernatural and spec tral . Ttfe darkness is fearful. Two people, getting losbuom thiir guide only for a few hours, ye^s agfv were de mented.. tni for years sat in their insanity. ? You feel like hoi^Bg ycur breath as you walk a cms the bridges that seem to span the bottotnless abyss. The guide throws his calcium light down into the cavern.*, an I the light rolls and tosses' from rock to rock and from depth to deptu, making at every plunge a new revelation of the awful power that could hav^made such a place as that. A sense of suffocation comes uppn you as you think that yon are two hundred and fifty feet in a straight iim from the summit jjurface of the earth. The guide after awhile takes you into what is called the "star charaher;" and then he sajstoyou, "Sit here;" and then be takes th ? lantern and goes down unier the rocks, and it gets darker and darker until the night iff so thick that the hand an inch from the eye is un observable. And then, by kindling one of the lanterns and placing it in a cleft of the ro^k there, is a reflection cast on the dome of the cave, and there are stars conrng out in constel iations ? a bril liant night heavens? and you involuntarily exclaim, "Beautiful! beautiful !" Then he fekes tha lantern down in other depths of the cavern and wanders on and wanders off until he comes up from behind the rocks gradually, and it seems like the dawn of the morning until it gets brighter and brighter. The guide is a skilled ven triloquist, and he imitates the voices of the morning, and soon the gloom is ail gone and yon stand congratulating yourself over the wonder ful spectacle. Well, there are a great many people who look down into the grave as a great cavern. They think it is a thou -and miles subterran eous, end all the echoes seem to be the voices of despair, and the cascades ssecn to be the falling tears tbat always fall, and tha gloom of earth seims coming up in stalagmite, and the gloom of the eternal world s?ems descending in th* ;?ia:nctite, making pil lars of m desonbabl^ borror. The grave is no fcuoii place as that to me, thank God! Our divine guide takes us down into the great caverns, and we h^va the la np to our leetani tbe light to our path, and all the echoes in the rifts of the rock are antuems, and all the failiug waters are lountains ot salvation, and after awhile we look up, and behol 1 ! the cavern of the tomb has become a king's star chamber. And while we are looking at the pomp of it an everlasting iroruing logins to rise, an 1 nil the tears of .earth crvstallizj into stalag mite, rising up in a pillar on the ou j sid->, and all tho glories of heaven seem to bo de scending in a stalactite, nuking a pillar on the other side, an l you pus'i against the gate that swings bet vein thy t*o pillars, and as that gate flashes opeu you flu.i it as one of the twe'.ve gates which ar.3 tw_?!vtj pearls.
