The EgyptiaU Deser. The moment we leave the banks of the Nile, we enter a world entirely h a-range knd new-a waterless land, -I witheta rivers, creeks, rivulets, or n springs; nothing but scanty and more a or less brackish wells, at long- inter vals; and ih the mountainous regions, i same natural rocky reservoirs, where o the rare rain water collects in the I brief and uncertain rainy season. When the writer crossed the Eastern Desert in the fall of 1873, there had been no rain for three years; so that I the first thing to be provided in start- I Ing was a supply of water sufficient to lass from the Nile to the first well,and then from each well to the next. In I carrying the water, the natives em- a ploy exclusively goat and -ok skins. I When a goat Is killed, they cut off his head and legs at the hooks and knees; and after splitting the skin a short I way down his breast, turn him out of his jacket by pulling it off like a stock-, Ing. After the hide is cured, the logs are tightly tied up, leaving only the neck open; and thus a large bottle is formed capable of holding from six to tn gallons according to the size of the d funct goat. These water-sklas, called girtehs, after a few days' use, keep the water very sweet. In the ex- 1 cessive heat of the desert, however, they lose a great quantity of their con tents by evaporation. Military trains, in addition, are supplied with Ilatten ed sino barrels, whose slipe is adapted for hanging to the pack-saddles. These have screw stoppers, which prevent t 11 leakage and evaporation. The wfa ter carried in the ge. behs in the u1n, 1 gets quite warm, and that in the zinc I barrels almost bolls. As soon, there fore, as the traveler gets to cmp, a po~tion of water is poured out into open skins and hung on tripods Il the shade; then, In the course of half an hour It becones drinkable, and by midnight is as cold as fresh spring water. As a consequence, water in the des ert is a very precious possession; for should the traveler find that the well en which he relied has gone dry, It may mean death to in in one of Its crueleet forms. Iln that waterless land, therefore, even tle plous Arab abstains from his religious ablutIons before prayer, his law permitting him in such a case to wash ais hands and feet with sand. As a rule, the water found in the scattered wells is very bad. The first thing on arriving at a well is to taste its water, a nd every one takes a sip, rolling it in his mouti aid testing it, as epicures do rare wines. Ureat is the joy if it is pronouncel "sweet water;" but when the guides say "not good," you know it is a strong solution of' Epsom salts. The Arabs divide their deserts into two -inds. What they call wilderncss,be ing diversified by valleys or water sourses, where their flocks can wan der and find pasture. The second is the afmour, or desert proper, consist - ing of' hard gravel, diversified by zones of deep sands, rocky belts, and rugged defiles. It is absolutely and entirely dstitute of all vegotations. Not a tree, not a bushs,not a blade of grass rclieyes the eyes, which are painfully affected by the fierce retiection of the sunlight I upon the yellow sand. No shade whatever ls to be found, unless it is cast by some great rock. 'These at. inours, generally nine or ten day.s journey across, are like oceans, wvhich you may traverse on your four-ftooted< ship, but where you may not tarry,nd where caravans cross each other like vessels on the ocean. Here is a picture of a desert journey with its terrible privatious and ex periences. It, is now Mlay, 1875. The sun is si ing vertically over our * heads. We are on tuhe west of' the Nile, on the dlesolate altmo(urs which seperate the river from the hardly less barren plaina of Kordofan. A more parched, blasted, and blighted coun try than it is at this period, cannot be conceived. It, is the end of' the dry seamon, and half' of the rare wells are exhausted ; and those which are not, furninised only a scanty supply of' brackish water at temperatures of eighty degrees or more. The dleep~er the walls, the warmer the water. Theli mainhos are periectly terrible, and yet it is worse to halt during the day than to keep moving; for under the tents the heat redoubles as in a hothouse, smaking it impo sible to rr at or* sleep,. Ttius we imiarch from earlicst diawni often till night; ior we mus st make the distance between the wvells before our water gives out. Ons the busrining santi the sun beats dlown withs a fieircensess which cannot be described. Th'ie baur rol of your guni, the stirrup of your s..d lie, blister your lhand 811(d your foot;. The thsermomieter rises to a hun dred and fifty degrees in the sun; and in spite of the protetion of your white helmet, a heavy silk scarf over it; and~ the umbrella you carry, your skin peels off ini blisters, and your brain almost boils in your skull. Things worth Runowhiag. That boiling wvater will remove tea -stains and many fruit stains; pour the water through the stain, and thus pre vent it from spreading ov er the fabric. That ripe tomatoes will remove ink and other stains from white cloth ; also from the hands. That a teaspooiiful af *.arpentine, boiled with white oletlhes,will a1(d the whitening process. Tiat boiled starch is mutch in~provedl by the addition of a little spernmaceti or a little salt, or both, or a little gumn arabic dissolved. That beeswvaN and salt will mnake f1at-irons as clean and smooth as glas a; tie a ilump of wax in a rag, and keep it for that puripose; when the irons are hot, rub them with the wax rag,then scour with a paper or rag sprinkled with sait. That kero sene will soften boots or shoes which have bein hardened by water, and render them tas pliable as when new. That kerosene will make tin tea-ket tIes as bright as new; saturate a wool en rag an'd rub with it; it, will also remove stains from clean varnished furniture. FARM AN GARDEN. ERGOT IN GRASS-An invgstigation i Newy York, in order to ascertain 18 cause of- frequent diseases among eat cattle in winter time, has been ex mining va'lions grasses, and finds that got .not infrequently exists among hein. "June grass" (poa pratensis) e says, when allowed to remain un lt until late in the Bss iI, contalus. no aconsidorable quantity. slilar gras. 0e, espet-lally the well-known "Whit top," (Dauthouia Spioula) is often aade poisonous by Its presence. This ;rass is bad enough ips best estate, aving so sniali a q uantity of phs >horie acid as to be Incapable of sup >orting life for a long period, but hen to its innutritioue substance is dded a polson, the result of. feeding t is disease and (loath. The ergot is a ort of accumulative poison, taking iosseoston of the system and gradually iut surely br.inging disease. This dauthonia is very prevalent on ixhausted soils, where no nutritious ebd can% grow, because the soil has no naterial of which to manufacture au ,rilious products. Hence the truthful iess of the remark of the unlettered ountrynan who said he had found hat nianure would kill whitetop 'deader'n thunder."

POULTRY NANURn.-Poultl y minAuire is by far the most valuable lertilizer prouneed on farmns. Fowls eat con 3entrated food that Is rich and nitro zen and pliosphorus, and their drop pings partake of the natuure of the food hey devour. Grain, the seeds of uM111 plants, meat, and lnseet produce, when decomposed by the action of the tigestive apparatus, rielier fe-tliz ng material than grass, hay, and straw. Besides, bi d void their urine in a solid 1 0o-m, w1141 coinbliied with the xcrement, that Is usail,y solid. As it consequence It Is not Hliabe to be wasted if the manure is rigitly cared fo-. Poultry manure is about as valuable as the beet Perivim guano. T'o make it of the highest value as a fe tilizer, however, it must be stored, and applied to the ground with care. Expoted to the weather it will be dis soived by rain and carried off. Poanced [ii large heaps it heats aid tMe am inonia Is driven off'and lost.

IOW TO MAKE A PouLTiox.-Dr. Irunton gives the following useful ints on this subject: The common oractiee of making poultices by mix ng linseed meal with hot water and pplylng it directly to the skin is ulte wrong, becaiuse if we do not vish to burn the patient we must wait intil a great portion of the heat has )eon lost. The prope- method is to nake a flannel bag, the size of the )Oultiee required, to fill this with the Inseed poultice, as hot as it can poo ible be made, aind put between this rnd the skin a second flannel, so there liall be at least two thicknesses of lannol between the skin and the poul Ace itself. Above the poultice should me placed more flannel, or a piece of >otton wool, to prevent it from get Aing cold. By this method we are tble to apply tihe linseed meal bolling iot, without burning the patient, and Ahe heat, gradually diffusing through Lihe flannel, affords a grateful sense of rellet, which cannot be obtained by Lther means. There are few ways In whi.h such marked relief Is given to %bdomninal pain, as by the application Af a poultice In this inanier.
