how dusty it is.” “ (¡race." said the

In all our experience we have never
seen any but the best results from
early fall plowing. W'hile on the other
hand we have often seen the ill effects
of late plowing ou the next crop. At
one time we began the plowing of
field containing eighty acres while still
engaged in stacking, the wet weather
having interfered with the latter work,
says a writer in the “ Homestead.”
Plowing was continued at odd time« till
late in the fall, and the following year
the entire field was planted in corn.
During the summer the growing corn
tofti unerringly of the difference in
time of plowing, the crop being the
best ou the early plowed ground and
the poorest on the late plowed. With
our experience in plowing stubble
ground for a crop of corn we would
much prefer spring plowing to that of
the late fall, the only thing to be said
in favor of the latter being that work
is not usually so pressing in the fall as
in the spring, but early fall plowing
is far better than either, whether for
corn or small grain, and if the surface
of the soil does become packed all th'j
better for the crop. It will show its
appreciation as soon as it secures a
foothold.
made in order to keep pace with chang­

Bathing is first of all for cleanliness,
but it should be practiced also for its
good effect upon the skin, the circula­
tion and tlie nutrition. It afford« an
excellent stimulus for the skin, im-
I»roving the tone of its minute network
of vessels increasing the excretion
which is carried on by its glands, and
tints relieves tlie kidneys and liver of
much of their work. It act« as an addi­
tional stimulus to the circulation by
causing the blood to flow more thor­
oughly through all the organs of the
U>dy as well as through the minute
blood-vessels of the skin itself. It im­
proves nutrition by causing a more
rapid removal of tlie waste products
from the system.
On** of the most invigorating forms of
bathing is the cold sponge bath taken in
the morning before breakfast. Persons
who do not react readily after such a
bath, such as the very young, the very
old. or those who are seriously weaken­
ed by disease, should not practice it.
For n person of average health, how­
ever. the cold bath is an excellent tonic.
i'he exhilaration and warmth o f the
cold sponge hath can be increased by
drying and rubbing the body with a
rough towel.
Fan should a ways he taken not to
have the bath too prolonged, or of a
temperature so low a« to prevent the
reactionary dilation of the vessels of
the skin. If the cold sponge bath is
taken regularly the blood vessels of the
skin a n trained to contract and relax
easily, and therefore habitual bathers
are comparatively little liable to catch
cold. The number of red blood corpus­
cles Mid tlie amount of coloring matter
in them is increased by cold baths. An
excellent way of becoming accustomed
io thi* cold sponge bath is to begin with
water which is tepid, and gradually re­
duce its temperature until alwolutely
cold water can be borne and enjoyed.
