AGRICULTURE. ROAD MAKINO,-The plough sho1 be put to use on the sides, to open drains and make now ones. Sh rook generally yields to the plough April, and it is risky to allow hard cl to go over to May or June, as the pli may not be able to make the desli impression upon it. Where the r< is too hard, let powder be used. making capacious side drain. throu rook, much good material for 11111 chuck holes and covering rough pla is secured. Surplus water is ever where the trouble. Remove that a remedy is had. Side drains fill with standing water make soft roa( and there can be no improvement u: the water is removed. To do this op the drains into the fields or er( streams, always make the outlets the drains large, so that the tlow water may not be checked at the ve point where its escape should be free Planked culverts might be fewer, ; all ought to be longer-say 18 to feet, to enable two vehicles to pass wi entire safety. What is known as t "Virginia bridge," a heavy applicati of broken-stone, depressed in the ce tre, answers best at most small wat crossings. Winter spriigs on iiislaid should be treated to a blind drain stone three feet deep-the only perma ent and satisfactory remedy for su( team and temper-wearing spol Across marshy p)lacs "bridging'' wi stone, well broken, on top at least, the best thing to do, creek gray added is a luxury that should never rejected. Therefore, plowing the aid and opening drains, hauling grave &c., should begin at once. After cot planting the scoop will come in and < its work. As a useful and economic Implement, there Is nothing to compa with the horse scoop. One will do tli work of ten men with common shove and do it more effectively. Every di trict should have plenty of scoop There are- too many breakers matl The exercise of proper judgment wouI discard one half of them, and ilmprov the roads by so doing. On steep hil sides breakers should leave the shape. They divided the flow of wate and there is less wash; are likewia easier on the vehicle. SuoiNo HotsEs.--The nails shoul be quite small and driven in more ger tly than is the custom. There is nt reason why the smith should strike blow at the little nlail head as strou as he would deliver at the head of spike or an oak beam. The hoof o the horse is not an oak stick, and th delicately pointed and slender heade alal is not a wrought iron spike, an yet you will see the nailer whack awa at them as if it was a matter of life an death to get them entirely set in at tw blows of his hammer. Insist that th nailer shall drive his nails slowly an steadily, instead of using violence. I this case, if his nail is badly pointec and gets out of proper line of directiol no great injury Is done. It can b withdrawn and a new one substituted without harm having been done thi foot, But the swift, blind, and violen way prevents all such care, and expose the horse to temporary, if not perman ent injury. Gentleness should be ex eroised in clinching the nails. Neve allow a smith to touch a rasp to the out er surface of the hoof. Nature ha covered it with a thin filament of enmi mel, the object of which is to protec the inner membrane and fiber fron ex posure to water and atmosphere. Th enamel is exactly what nateuro puia o your finger niil, readler.

There are in dl&ierent methods used for its purilica ay tion ar.ong which are boiling, distilla aw tion and filtration, the latter being the 'ed fayorite method. Marsh waters in ock many instances may be so far improved By as to fit them for drinking and culinary gi purposes by steeping in them certain ng herbs or by rubbing the inside of the .es kettle they are to be boiled In with y- bitter seeds and herbs. In' China and ud Japan the tea plant is used for this ed purpose, and bitter almond on the Is, banks of the Nile. A writer in an til English paper gives his experience in en the purification of water which Is as )ss follows:-"Difforent waters liUe dif of ferent diseases, require different treat of ment to purify them, and all waters, ry no matter how impure they may be, it. can be made quite pure for drinking or ut other doinestic purposes without distil 20 lation, providing the proper materials th be used and suilicient time allowed the lie re-agents to act; but in many samples ,n of water I have found distillation to be i- the quickest and cheapest mode of er purlifying them. All filters in use, es that I an aware of, only purify the of water from solid impurities nech:ani nh- cally suspended in the water. 'I'ie ih following is a description of a fillter s. that I have often used, which purifles th foul water from organic Impurities is hel iIn solutiont as well as from sus ol pended solids :-'i'ake amy suitable ves o sel with a perforated false bottom and 39 cover it with a layer of alimal char 1, coal ; on the top of that spread a layer -n of iron lilings, borings or turnings, the lo flimer the better, mixed with charcoal ii dust; on the top of the filings place a "e layer of line, clean, siicious sand and e you have it perfect filter. Allow the is water to filter slowly through the s- above filter and you will produce a re s. markably pure drinking water. Before . placing the Iron filings in the filter d they should be well washed in a hot s solution of soda or potash to remove I- oil or other impurities, then rinse them V in clean water; the filings should be r, mixed with an equal measure of ine ie charcoal. If the water Is very foul it must be allowed to filter very slowly. 'Tiie deeper the bed of iron filings d is, the quicker they will act. The above Is a slm'le, cheap and very efll o cient filter, supirior to any that I know a of, and it has the advantage of being K tree to every one who chooses to make a It. I have not taken out a patent for it, and I am not aware of any other person e having done so. I think I an the only 1 person who has ever used it. The 1 foulest ditch water treated as above Is rendered quite pure and lit for drInk ing. I may mention that I have made it a practice during the last twenty e seven years to boil all my drinking I water. It is the safest planth for a man moving from place to placc. You can not always carry a filter and chemicals about with you, but you canm always manage to get boiled water. P'eople talk about it being vapid and tasteless,, but. I aum used to it and like it. t " s E1fects of Breathing No.xious Vupors. In some experiments lately made by - M.
