FA KM A5D HOME. A T76B FOB FERNS. Every country neighborhood lias woods which are full of ferns and brakes, which usually die and go to seed without doing any good save as a gratification to the, sense of sight. The softer parts, if stripped from the b terns and dried in the sun, retain their toughness and elasticity for a long time, and are said to ba supe rior to straw and husks, and even to " ex celsior," for stuffing mattresses. The tacks when filled should be stitched firmly with a mattress-needle, using strong linen twine, and making the in tervals between stitches about an eighth of a ycrd. BEET SUGAR IN GERMANY- The following interesting statistics of the present condition of the beet sugar industry in Germany have just been is sued. The extent of the figures involved indicates to what an enormous value this industry has attained, and ' points an in structive moral to those - who have failed in their attempts to introduce and estab lish it in the United States, viz. : ' Xo. of Quantitv of Suoar mamtitfac- hictm employed, production.

MOVABLE FENCES. We never advocated hedge planting, except it be upon the roadside; all else is wild and useless in a . land as varied in ( , the ownership of real estate as ours in America. Again, were there any per manency attached to property as belong ing to years or time, the cost of keeping the hedges, the harbor they give for vermin, the amount of land they occupy, the serpen they make for thieves, are more than the balance of cost and availability in the use of movable wooden slat fences, or wooden posts with wire intermediate, light, and readily removed. They can I hi stored away under a shed during winter, and at a moment's thought can brought and used cheaply to protect any little part and parcel of the grounds. Prairie Farmer. CHURNING UTLK, OR CREAM. Upon this point of churning the en tire milk in preference to skimming and cliurning the cream, it Btrikes us that the results of the most carefully conducted experiments all go to show its economy a compared with churning the cream alone on farms where there are kept only a small number of cows, and that those who have tried it and given it up have failed to observe the proper temperature. Let it never be forgotten that the ther mometer is to have the post of honor in the dairy. Without it all is guesswork. A difference of not over two degrees will affect the yield of butter to the extent of four to five per cent, which, in a large dairy, or in a small dairy, throiigh the season, will amount to a very large item, especially with butter at fifty to sixty cents a pound, as it is and has been for a long tame in our markets. 3osacu setts Ploughman. WATER A3 A PIxANT-NOTTRISHER. An experiment of considerable impor tance in botany has recently been con ducted in England. Some plants of the watermelon, after their first gertnination from the seed, have been sustained wholly on water, in which their roots were im mersed, and have in this condition pro duced fruit of the finest quality. " ery few plants can obtain sufficient nourish ment from water alone to enable them to carry on the complete process of blossom ing and fruiting. The hyacinth, which is made to flower in water, has been first . brought to maturity by a growth of several vears in the soil, and has stored in its bulb sufficient food for the maintenance of its foliage and flowers for an entire season. The water in which it apparently thrives, seems to act only as a solvent of this food, for it fails to furnish the ma terial with which the hyacinth can stock its bulb for a succeeding year's subsist ence. Hence, after the plant has once blossomed in water it is either thrown away or sot in the ground or allowed . . . l years to recover its spent iorces. i case of the watermelon cited above fie was, however, no previous prepara- of food, and ita entire nourishment roughout vegetation was derived from i water. A FARMERS RAILROAD. The farmers of Salinas Valley, Cali fornia, were at the mercy of the railroad corporations of that State, and with an enterprise that does them much credit, , they went to work and laid down an iron pathway to the sea, which makes them independent for all time of monopoly in any form whatever. The port of Moa terey '- was only twenty miles distant, where ships can come and load as easily and far more cheaply than at San Fran cisco. Their valley was connected with San Francisco by long lines of railroad belonging to Stanford & Co., but the Grangers did not forget that heaven had blessed them with a seaport near by, and they subscribed the stock of a narrow track railroad and built the road them selves, and say they can almost save to themselves the price of the road the pres ent year by cheapening transportation by the old railroad line, even if they do not choose to rise their own road. This road, with a good narrow track, with all neces sary turnouts and rolling stock, and with two large warehouses, cost the people of Salinas Valley 813,000 per mile, and as they save freight on 1,500,000 bushels of wheat at the rate of 15 cents a bushel, they will make a profit for themselves. The Household. Soda Douohntts.

We wish to call the attention of all consumers of kerosene oil to the per nicious and unhealthy practice of using lamps filled with that article with the wicks turned down. The gas which should be consumed by the flame is by this means left heavily in the air, while the cost of the oil thus saved, at the E resent prices, would bo scarce one dol ir a year for the lamps of a household. A large family of children in the country were taken ill one night, and on going to the nnraprv the mother found the whole room nearly suffocating with a lamp turned nearly out, whereupon the doctor forbade the use of a lamp at night unless burned ut full head. A girl was subject to fits of faintness, which, if not induced, were greatlv increased by sleeping in the room with the lamp turned almost out. Besides the damage to health, it spoils the paper and curtains, soils the mirrors and windows, and gives the whole house an untidy and unwholesome odor. PRIS0S DISCIPLINE. Flogging the Re nellioun Convicts in the Mis souri Penitentiary. Jefferson City (Mo.) Cor. St. Ixniia Republican. At 7:30 o'clock Mr. Bradbury came in the man who lays on the strap and rawhide, and who is more taciturn than his fellow-officers. With the crowd of guards we walked to the "old hall, filled with 326 cells. Two pests near by stand out clearly in the light of a neigh boring lamp. At first a young negro boy is brought up by the guard. As he comes up with abashed countenance, he trembles like an aspen. "Take off your shirt '" A slow movement in that direc tion. " Lie down aud you can take it off quicker." When he has the shirt off he comes up to the post, and, extending both hands sees each firmly bound by a rope. The man then takes the rope, which leaves about a foot's distance be tween the negro's hands, and twines it on a hook placed further up on the post. When this is fixed, the prisoner can only stand on tiptoe. Mr. Bradbury here comes up. " What is your namei" "Henry Schaeffer." " What have you been doing?" " Speak ing in the line, sir ; that is all. " " Don't you know better than that? how long nave you been here ?" " Nine months." Turning to your correspondent, Mr. Bradbury remarked : " We have begun different discipline here. Bradbury takes a rawhide and lays it on the bare yellow back before him. It raises a long red line on the yellow back, and the negro leaps two feet off the floor. Further, it brings a yell of pain, and an abject cry of " Mr. Bradbury, please, Mr. Bradbury, sir." But Bradbury lays on four or five more lashes without flinch ing. The punishment is done, and the Af rican humbly picks up his clothes, and goes back to his cell. " James Shea comes up an intelligent and fine-looking young fellow of less than 23 and takes his punishment with bravely-suppressed moans of anguish, until eighteen blows are measured out. It is curious to mark the blows, how Bradbury tries not to plow up too much space, but to plow deep. The long red lines deepen and darken, widen and lengthen ; then become clotted ; to-morrow they will be blue. " Eighteen blows ; take him down, if he is ready." " Oh, yes, sir, I am ready ; but I have been imposed upon by these men," said the prisoner, pointing to the guards. " Imposed upon, have you? " says Brad bury ; "string him up again." The deed is done. The already quivering flesh is made to quiver again, and the teeth are gritted together tighter and tighter, though the moans caused by the scorching rawhide cannot help coming, and the face pales to a deeper pallor, aud the eyes on the look of despair and an guished suffering that looks up at the stone walls in unutterable desolation ! Mike Malloy, low-browed, hard, and evil, proves himself a cowardly whelp. As Bradbury raises the lash he begines a whine, which, when the lash descends, heightens into a howl the cry of a wild beast, a cry of agony, unrestrained by the feelings of pride that agitate most men and most convicts. " I would rather be with my mother," he piteously whines be tween the blows. Bradbury coolly says, " I suppose you would." Other prisoners are whipped, but time cannot be spent on all. The braggadocio leader in the revolt disgraces hia human ity when it comes to a little suffering. The brave, patient follower faints before a cry of pain shows how the blows have sunk into his flesh and into the sensitive covering of his soul. . Some come up dauntless, some with trembling all de part with a look out of their eyes that be tokens a desire for eternal revenge. Facts forjthe Million. Oilcloths, if well rubbed with a woolen cloth and warm water, with the addition of a little skimmed milk, if con venient, will look nearly as fresh as new. Scrubbing brushes and strong soap are ruinous to them. Dim writing, nearly effaced by age, may be restored by the application of a solution of prussdate of potash in water. Wash the parts with a hair pencil, and the writing will appear if the paper has not been destroyed From six to ten drops of the concen trated solution of chloride in awineglass ful of pure spring water, taken imme diately after the ablutions of the morning are completed, will sweeten the breatfi by disinfecting the stomach, which, far from being injured, will be benefited by the medicine. . If necessary this may be repeated in the middle of the day. In some cases the odor from carious teeth is combined with that of the stomach. If the mouth is well rinsed with a tea spoonful of the solution of the chloride in a tumbler of water, the bad odor will be removed. A weak solution of the per manganate of potass, as we have before stated, is also good, y- ' ; ;' ; "i ' To wash a white lace veil, put it into a strong lather of white soap and Very clear water and let it simmer slowly for a quarter of an hour ; take it out and squeeze it well, but be careful not to ; rub it ; rinse it twice ? in cold -water,- i the second time with a drop or two of liquid blue. Have ready some very clear, weak gum-arabic water or some thin starch, or rice water ; pass the veil through it and clear it by clapping ; then stretch it out evenly and pin it to dry on a lineri cloth, making the edge as straight as possible, opening out all the scallops and fastening each with pins. When dry, lay a piece of thin muslin smoothly over it and iron it on the wrong side. ' . ' L " Air Old Blade. -Jofei L. Paget, of Cornish Flat, N. H., still shaves himself with a razor which was the only one used by his father, who got it of an old man eighty years of age, who in turn bought it when he was young for sixpence at a pawnbroker's shop in the city of Glas gow. It was an old razor then. Mrs. Paget has a looking-glass which' was brought into Cornish about 113 years ago, and has been in use ever since. It is seven by ten inches its size, is sound, and seems good for another hundred years. A Wonderful Island. . Men have often tried to rival nature on her own ground. One remarkable scene of such effort is still sought by tourists' in Lake Maggiore, in Northern Italy, ad-i joining Switzerland. In Lake Maggiore he the islands belonging to the Borrom-i ean family, among which is "Isola Bella," an enchanted ground well worthy" of its name. Two hundred years ago the island was a barren rock ; to-day, thanks to the freaks of a spendthrift noblemanj it is "a joy forever." Ten terraces built in massive stone piers rise out of the water, earth of sufficient depth td grow the largest trees was brought there and these many years it has been a little forest of luxurious vegetation for every clime. There, flourish the camphor and the india-rubber trees, the bread fruit and the banana, the black bamboo and the American aloe, the cedar of Lebanon, the magnolia, the date palm laden with fruit, and camellias fifteen feet highj Every step brings one in contact with new beauties, while statues and wondrous works in stone mingle every where with the living green ivies, honeyt suckles, trumpet-creepers and a wealth of ferns and creeping plants. The ' spendthrift nobleman " who perpetrated all this magnificence was Count yitaliano Borromeo, a descendant of the celej brated philanthropist, Archbishop Charles Borromeo, one of the saints of . the Roman calendar. j Putnam's Vest. Mrs. William Perry, living near Deer Creek Meeting-House Kenyon county, Ky., has the vest worn by Gen. Israel Putnam when j he made his escape from the British soldiery, in his ride down the stone steps, near Stam ford, Conn., in 1779, where, with 150 militia, he was opposing 1,500 British under Tryon. The rebels were forced to retreat, Putnam staying till the last. Being hard pressed and fired upon, he galloped down a steep rock, in which nearly 100 steps had been cut for people to ascend going to church. Mrs. Perry is the grandniece of Gen. Putnam, and received the vest from her mother. ' It is a long, Quaker-like garment, " with large pockets, and the material ash-colored Marseilles. The Kevolutionary relic is highly prized. j The good name of the old Sherman House, Chicago, is being nobly main tained by the new. There is not a bet ter hotel on the continent. Ita prices, too, have just been reduced. j - j Carpenters, read the advertisement of Simmons' Sash Supporters in another column. j A Nation of Dyspeptics. We live fast dissipate in everything except righteousness, and fill early graves. We drink all kinds of poisoned alcoholic spir its, and swallow, without mastication, pork, grease, and every conceivable car bonaceous, soul-dwarfing, life-destroying, system-clogging indigestible food. Db. Walker's Vegetable Vinegar Bittehs cannot stop this in a radical manner but it will remove the evil effects, and the re covering patient, with fresh, pure, vital ized, electrical blood flowing through his arteries and veins, will have a clearer head and a cooler judgment, which, coupled with experience, will cause him to abstain in the future. Good, nutri tious, digestible diet, which the most delicate stomachs may take, can be found in cracked wheat, corn bread, tomatoes, raw or soft-boiled eggs, baked apples, boiled rice, plain rice pudding, corn starch, rare beef, mutton and poultry.

Y., Jan, 13, 1874. H. V. Pieuce, M. D., Buffalo, N. Y.: I Deab Sir I bad suffered from Catarrh in an aggravated form for about twelve years and for several years from lsroncliial trouble, xneu many doctors and things with no lasting benetit. In Slay, '72, becoming nearly worn out with excessive editorial labors on a paper in New York city, I was attacked with Bronchitis in a severe form. Buffering almost a total loss of voice. I returned home here, but iiad been home onlv two weeks when I was completely prostrated with hemorrhage from the lungs, having four severe bleeding spells trithin tiro toeeks. and first three insidn of nine days. In the September following, I improved sufficiently to be able to be about, though in a very feeble state. My Bronchial trouble remained and the Catarrh was tenfold worse than before. Every effort for relief seemed fruitiest. I seemed to be losing ground daily. I continued in this feeble state, raising blood almost daily until about the first of March, 73, when I became so bad as to be entirely confined to the house. A rncnci suggested your remedies. But I was extremely skeptical that they would do me good, asi I had lost all heart in remedies, and began to look upon medicine and doctors with disgust. Haw ever, I obtained one of your circulars, and read it carefully, from which I came to the. con clusion that you understood your business,' at least. I. finally obtained a quantity of Dr. Sage's Catarrh "Remedy, your Golden Medical Discovery and Pellets, and commenced their vigorous use according to directions. To my surprise, I soon began to improve. The Dis covery and Pellets, in a short time, brought out a severe eruption, which continued for several weeks. I felt much better, my appetite im proved, and I gained in strength and flesh. ; In three months every vestige of the Catarrh was gone, the Bronchitis had nearly disappeared, had no cough whatever, and I had entirely ceased to raise blood ; and, contrary to the expectation of some of my friends, the cure has remained permanent. "I have had no more hemorrhages from the lungs, and am entirely free from Catarrh, from which I had suffered so much and so long. The debt of gratitude I owe for the blessing I have received at your bands, knows no bounds. I am thoroughly eaajsned, . from my experience, that your medicines will master the worst forms of that odious disease Catarrh, as well as throat and lung diseases. I have recommended them to very many, and shall ever speak in their praise. , Gratefully yours, WM. H. SPENCER. P. O. Box 507. Rochester, K. Y.

Walker's California Vin egar Sitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made chiefly from the na tive herbs found on the lower ranees ot the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor nia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without the um of Alcohol. Tbe question is almost daily asked, "What is the cause of the unparalleled success of Vi&egab Bit TEHsf Our answer is, that they removs the cause of disease, and the patient re covers his health. , They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect .Renovator and Invigorator the system. ; Never before in th aintory of the werld hau a medicine been compodiuZea poweseing the remarkable qualities of Vinboar B.ttkrb in healinir the ... r j i . i rn nws. vi worjr uiBeone iaihii jh ueir iaj. a iiy are a gentle 'Purgative well as a Tonic, relieving Congestinn ' Inflammation the Liver and Vwoerat organs, in Billot Diseases. The nroDerties of Dr. Walkke's ViKEOA-a Bitters are Aperient, Diauborotio, Carminative, Nutritions, Laxative, Jinretio, Sedative, Coanter-Irritant, Spdorifio, Aluirw uve. ana Ana-niuone. . Grateful Thousands proclaim Vnr egab Bitters tbe most wonderful In vigorant that ever suRtained - the sinking system. No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not de stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilious. Remittent 'and Inter mittent Fevers, which are so preva lent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobilo, Savannah, Ro anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea sons of unusual beat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive ae rangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow erful influence upon these various or gans,' is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters. as they will speedily remove tbe dark colored viscid matter with which the hnwela nrs lnArlnrt. n.t tha same time stimulating the secretions of the lLyer, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs. Fortify the body against disease by purifying all its fluids with Vdtegar Bitters. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head ache, Pam in tbe Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eructations of tbe Stomach, Bad Taste in tbe Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita tation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the region of the Kid neys, and a hundred other painful symp toms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantee, of its merits than a lengthy advertise ment. Scrofula, or King's Evil, Whito Swelliligv Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Keck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Inderlent Inflammations, Mercurial A flections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore Eyes.'etc. In tbese, as in all other constitutional Dis eases, Walkeb's Yikkgar BiTTKRS have shown their great curative powers iu the most obstinate and intractable cases. ' For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, ; Remit tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the ltlood. Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no eoual. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases. Persons en gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Tj-pe-setters, Gold-beaters, aud Miners, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysis of the -Bowels. To guard against this, take a dose of "Walker's Vim- kgak Bittrrs occasionally. For SKin Diseases, Eruptions, Tot ter, Salt-Rhenin, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ring-worms, Scald-head, Sore Kyjes, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Diseases-of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dng up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of theso Bitters. , , Pin, Tape, and other VTornis, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and remoVed. Xo system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an thelniinitics will free the system from worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo manhood, or the tarn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Cleanse the Vitiated Blbod when ever yon find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or crorea ; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it when 'it is foal ; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pore, and the health of the system will follow. . it. k. Mcdonald a eo.. Druggists and Qen. A eta., Ran Franclaoo. California, awu oor, Ji naamnnms snq Lninwn ."sta., 0. x.
