AGRIMULTURAL. PoUnY M UitiE.-Poultry manure is by far the most valuable fertilizer produced on farms. Fowls eat concentrated food that Is rich in nitrogen and phosphorus, and their droppings psrtake of the naturedf the food they devour. Grain, the seeds of small plante, meat, and insects produce, when decomposed by the action of the di gestive apparatus, richer fertilizing material than grass, hay, and straw. Besides, birds void their urine in a solid form, and corm hined with the excrement that is usually solid. As a consequence it is not liable to be wasted if the manure is rightly cared for. Poultry manure is about as valuable as the best Peruvian Guano. To make it of the highest value as a fertilizer, however, it must be stored, and applied to the ground with care. Exposed to the weather it will be dissolved by rain and carried off. Placed in large heaps it heats and the am monia is driven off and lost. Applied to the soil in too liberal quantities, especially when fresh, it is liable to destroy the vital. ity of seeds and to kill delicate plants. It should be stored in a dry place and in com paratively small lots so it will not be injured by moisture and will not ferment. It is better to mix it with dry peat, road dust, or some other substance that will aid in keeping it dry and tend to arrest formenta tion. The best results attend Its use when it is well beaten up and very thoroughly mixed with these substances before it is applied to the soil. Lime and ashes should be kept from it. as they would act upon it in such a manner as to liberate ammonia. HousIs FoR HIRED HEwI.-One chielf reason why farmers are short of hands is, that laborers can find few comfortable houses to live in, at a fair rent, convenient to their busiess. They must take the vows of celibacy, or go to some city or vil lage to shelter their families. This is why the villages and cities grow, and why their saloons and almshouses find customers, while the country depopulates, and the farmers suffer from the lack of help. Country rents should be cheaper than city rents. Country tenements should be more pleasant, convenient, healthful and ever) way desirable than city tenements. There is abundant opportunity to make thei eo, and it is a shame and a disgrace to farmers if they are otherwise. Country employ ment should be as agreeable, constant and remunerative as can be had elsewhere. The great demand of our agriculture is more la bor to the acre, and this is the way to get it-give workmen comfortable houses at fair rent, ani ample gardens with currant bushes and fruit trees; they von't resist the temptation. This will enable workmen to board themselves, when required, to the great relief of many overworked farmers wives: This will supply children's help, often very convenient. Thus the labot supply can be made up to the great advan tage of every party concerned. Let uE have houses for farm laborers. CliPj DIRT FoR Fuurr Tius.-The best fertilizer to use in setting fruit trees of all kinds is partially or thoroughly decompose( chip dirt. We made use of the material for the first time some twenty years ago ih planting an apple orchard, and it was 1 wonder to those not in the secret wha caused the trees to make such a line growtli the first season, and afterwards, too, foi that matter. This experiment was so satis factory, that when we set our new orchard, we made a liberal use of this material, witi: the same satisfactory result. These trials have proved to our satisfaction that chil: dirt is the very beet material to mix in the soil as you plant the tree that can possibi be used, for the reason that it hiwds moist urc, and is full of the elements of plant food ; therefore, it promotes a most, luxur lant, natural and healtly growth. itepeat. ed trials have satisfied ine that a tree is no; only miore sure to live, hut will make dou ble the growth the fIrst year (especially if dry season), if sonmc two bushels of clii: dirt are properly used in its setting, than It would without it. A sinigle trial wvill con. vinco the most skeptical that the best, 1pos. sible use that, can be made of this valuabh material is to app~ly it to the soil in plantin trees in order to push forward the tree dur, ing the first precarious Rtages of its growvth, Fn cir TIEEs. -No fruit grower iieed; teling that young fruit trees like the groum shaded. The b~est way to shade is wvhal growers dilfer about. Many grow Cr01p; through their orchards, and truckers grov vegetablles through theirs. It does no matter in what shape time shading comies . so that it (toes not rob t~he trees of nourish ment. Th'le coolness afforded the groum by growing crops is just, what fruit tree| like. Many bring about tihe seime result ha mulching the ground, anid where the lanw is too poor to sustain both a crop and thi . trees, this is the best, plan. Oxs of the most prolific causes of con tracted heels in horses is allowing thel shoes to remain oni too long. It is seldion we hear of horses having contracted heel; when worked regularly every day. Fes persons are aware of the importance of rc moving a horse's shoes, which should b done at least eveo y month or six weeks. is too often the custom to allow the shoes after having once been placed, to remal till worn out before removiug them. CoUN.-An mntelligent farmer says thi -the leaves and stalks from an acre of cor are worth as much to feed to stock as thi hay which could be raised upon tihe saum amount of land. Mfarking li'orkshop Tooh. - Miuc trouble can often be saved by marking tool with their owner's name, which can hi easily (lone in the fcilowing manner :Cotl over the tools ih a thin layer or wax c hard tallow, by first warming the steel aum rubbimg oii the wax warm until it flowi and let it, cool.

A BIMPLS MAGIO LANTEIRN.-All that is 'required toiiiake-asimple magic lantern, Is au ordinary wooden packing box, a ker osene hand lamp, with an Ar d burne',a smalrfish globe, and a burning glass of comdnon double or plano-convex lens. In one end of the box cut a round hole, large enough to admit a portion of the globe, suspended within the box, with the lamp close to it. The globe is filled with water from which the air has been expelled by boiling. Now moisten the surface of a piece of common window glass with a strong solution of sulphate of soda, or even common table salt, dissolved in water, and place it vertically in a little stand or clip in front of the box, so that the light from the lamp will be focused on it by the globe which in this case answers as the conden ser. The image of the glass will then be projected on a wall cr screen of white cloth some distance in front, providing the lens is so placed in the path or the rays of light, a little in advance of the stand, as to focus on the wall or screen. LEATHRn PA PIE.-This is one of the uu merous results of Japanese art and skill. The paper is rich and generous in color and charming in design. Some have won derful bits of detail, amidst a mass of sug gested form and foliage; others show more than a susp!cion of European in fluence. One of the latest specimens has all the familiar features of the best old Spanish leather, but accentuated in a man ner both novel and characteristic. Whether drawn, however, from their own resources or elaborated on accepted forms, they are peculiarly adapted for interior decoration, such as dados, entrance halls, staircases, etc. From their variety, both in design and color, they van also be used with fine effect in many other places. Apart from Its value as a decorative agent, Japanese lea ther paper possoeaes in a large degree the desirable quality oT durability. CH AIRCOAL AND IT1s Usas. -Charcoal laid flat while on a burn, will cause the pain to abate. Tainted moat, surrounded with it, is sweetened; strewn over heaps of do composed pelts, or over dead animals, it prevents any unpleasant odor. Foul wa ter is purified by it. It sweetens offensive air If placed in shallow trays around apart ments. It is so porous that it absorbs and condenses gases most rapididly. One cubic inch of fresh charcoal will absorb nearly one hundred cubic inches of gaseous am monia. Charcoal forms an unrivaled poul tice for malignant wounds and sores. In cases of what is called "proud flesh" it is invaiuable. It hurts no texture, injures no color, and is a simple and safe sweeten er and disinfectant. To BLEAUcI CLOTn-nto eight quarts of warm water put one pound of chloride of lime; stir with a stick a few minutes, then strain through a bag of coarse muslin, working it with the hand to dissolve tho roughly. Add to this five bucketfuls of warm water, stir it well and put in the muslin. Let it remain in one hour, turn ing it constantly that every piart may get thoroughly bleached. When taken out, wash well in two waters to remove the lime, rinse and dry. This quantity will bleach twenty-fIve yards of yard-wide mus lin. rho muslin will bleach evenly and <quickly it it has been thoroughly wet and dried before bletching. AN experienced book man says that books should never be allowed to get real ly cold, for when a thaw comes and the weather sets in warm, the air, laden with (mpini, penetrates the inmost recesses, and working its way betwveen the volumes,and even between the leaves, deposits upon their cold surface its moisture. A steam heated library is said to be safest for books. Librarians do not favor a glass-doored book case as a preservative of books, as the dampness wvill penetrate in spite of the glass, and the absence of ventilation will assist in the formiation of mold. Ornament al brass wire work is recommended instead of glass.

A DnY-GOODS clerk, who had a most out landish way of walking, had to go to a dis tant part of the store to find some goods which a party of feminine customers de sired to see.
