PaoArTEs.AND POTAsu. -Phoppliate of lime is only one of the mineral for tiliaers upon ,which plants delight to feed, but which continual crvpping, without returns, will soon exhaust. Pot ash, upon which plants make large de mands, is another. Grass and potatoes may be called potash plants, because, contaimmg a large per cent. of this min eral. One hundr.d parts of dry hay wall leave, when burned, nine per cent, of sah, which the largest part is potash. Successive crops of grass must, there fore, exhaust the land of this, its lead ing constituent, unless it is returned in some shape. Just what mineral fertil Izers grass lands want in order to keep them In good productive condition may be learned from the following statement of that eminent scientist, Bousiugault: "Ten thousand pounds of good meadow hay contain 547 pou ds of inorganio (mineral) matter, of which 180 pounds are potash, soda, 10 pounds; lime, 107; magnesia, 48; oxide of iron, 5; silicica, 189; sulphuric acid, 16,phospnoric acid, 82; and chlorine. 15. While many of these are found in almost inexhaustible quantity in all tillable land, potash, lime, sulphuric and phosphoric acids diminish rapidly un:ier cultivation, un. less returned in some way. It is a sui cidal policy, therefore, to neglect the applic.tion of these minerai fertilizers on land severely cropped. Nor has any fertilizer a more permanent effect on such land than wood ashes-they con taining all the mineral constituents of plant food-and when accompanied with ammonia in some form make a per fect fertilizers. It Ji an old saying that "laud never forgets ashes," and such would seem to be the fact, when places on which coal-kilus have been burned have been known to have shown their fertiliziug effects for more than half a century. inom results obtained with various fertilizing substances, Professor Atwater has drawn the following conclusions: Corn needs little nitrogen besides what it can draw from natural scurcoe, while its yield is largely increased under the influence of mineral fertilizers-the most eflective being those in which the chief component is phosphoric acid or potash according to the soil and the season. Potatoes respond uniformly to all the ingredients, and they are less able than corn to gather from natural sources. The ame appears to be true for turnips. Not enough experiments ha /c been made with other crops to justity conclu sions concerning them. Practicallythe largest average yield for all cropa is se cured by the use of fei tlizers conutaining all the essential elements of plant food. Used alone, nitrate of soda is raroly useful, sulphato oi limo frequently, mu riate Of pot-ash very ite i, lind the su per-phoslphiates generally, Soils vary in their capaeity for conveying food to crops, and earctul observation and ex periment are moessary to determine the nteds o ia particular soil. VALUE OF BLts.-Tie great value of bees to agriculture has hitherto been entirely overlouked. A society of Sax ony has collected some very ii.portant statistics upon this subject, which are now ide public. The seciety controls seventeen thousnod hives, from each of which ten thousaind bee'S fly out daily, This makes a total of 170,000,000 bees. If it is suipposed that each be c under takes but tour journeys per diay, and that this takes place upon01 only one hun dred doys of the, year, then an annual total of 68,000,000,000 bee journeys is obtained. At, the lowest limit protable the bcciety cinsidl(rA thaut fllty flowers are vlsitedl en (ech juney, and that five out of the filtly zare fertinized. This gives a grandit totail of M4G 000,000 fortil.. Rzeda floueia yer yeiar. It the vailuie ci fertilizutg twenty thous~and blos.soins lie one cent, then a value oi $170,000 i re presented by the work (lone by the bees of this si eiety,or a benefit to a'gricuilture by cachi hLve of $10 per annum.

FUmoGATXx PASTIra.-FOr the pur pose of deodorizing a room in which a there is an offensive smell common cof. v fee berries and even rage and brown h paper, if properly burned, will serve h admirably. The smoke from these sub- i1 stances not only neutralizes the odors b but readly acts as a disinfeotant to a u slight extent, In burning coffee, paper e< or rags for this purpose care must be el taken to prevent them from burning too & freely. If they Lurn with a free, bright c, flame the proper effect will not be pro- r4 duced. They should be allowed to a smoulder quietly, and they do this best a when they are thrown on hot coals or a o hot shovel and set on fire. An excel- o lent substitute for pastils is heavy broftn ci paper which has been dipped in a sd!u tion of nitre and ihen diled. This jt burns freely without flame, and if it be b dipped in a solution of benzoin, the odor is very pleasant. The best thin8, however, is pastile. They are easily A made as follows: 1.
