Dried Potatoes.
An American gentleman residing in
France writes : "Potato culture is likely to
receive a new impetus since the plan of sell-
ing them peeled, sliced 'and dried, like cer-
tain fruits, seems to hit the taste of the ex-
port market. The drying the potatoes can
follow the period of the dessication of fruits.
• The method obviates decay and germination
of the tuber, and occupying a less volume,
transport will be cheaper and less difficult.
The potatoes are peeled by machinery, next
carefully washed, sliced in rounds, and left
for twenty minutes in a strong solution of
kitchen salt. The brine induces firmness in
the slices and prevents their changing color.
Later the cuttings are drained, placed in
the drying apparatus, packed in boxes and
are then ready for shipment.
Rememberlhat the selection of seed is an
mportant factor in the next year's crop.
Rotten corn cobs are said to be a valuable
fertilizer on any soil that is deficient in pot-
ash, and their value is much enhanced by
being rotted with other manure.
Fruit that cannot be sold may be dried,
evaporated, Made into cider for vinegar or
jelly. In this manufactured form it can be
kept as long as, necessary and sold when a
fair price can be secured.
If a mangar or feed box be so foul as to
emit a sour in it should be cleansed at
once. The best method of doing so is by
washing it thoroughly with a solution of soda
or potash in hot water, flushing afterwards
with hot water only.
The intense itching caused by poison ivy
may be relieved ahnost immediately by
bathing the parts with the following: Bro-
mo-chloralum, four ounces; wine of opium,
two ounces; water, six ounces. These ar-
ticles may be had at any drug store.
More butter will be obtained if the cream
from the last one or two messes is kept
back each time,. It has not ripened with
the other, andakil its butter cannot be ob-
tained. The dAgair of having milk become
bitter in small dairies is obviated by stirring
in a little once a day until enough is left for
churning.
If a farmer wishes to educate his boys that
they may become good and contented fol-
lowers of his own calling, his first step
should be to educate himself. In order that
he may make successful farniers of them he
must himself have a just understanding of
the possibilities of his vocation, and a genu -
Inc love for farm work.
How To Drive,
To fit a horse for making a long journey
successfully, and with safety to health,
life, and limb, or to make a shorter dis-
tance speedily, and with like results, re-
quires more skill and judgment than is
ordinarily brought to bear in such cases.
The National Live Stock Journal asserts
that the feed should be clean oats to the
limit of perfect digestion, with a moderate
amount of bright hay, in no case sufficient
to " fill the horse," because in that con-
dition he can have neither speed nor bottom.
As a rule, give no corn to a horse intended
for other than slow work. The same rule
should apply to what is termed "mill feed,"
except in the form of an occasional feed,
the object being to loosen the bowels. The
giving of such a mess, as a habit, should be
avoided. On the road tho horse should be
driven moderatelY forNhefirst hour or two,
that full digestion may be completed upon
anyfood within him. An observant man
canmeasure the feelings and ability of the
horse by his outward manifestations, and
to spur a horse on that is usually ready to
do his duty, but for the moment lags be-
cause of being under sonse physical inabil-
ity that he cannot throw off, is both inhu-
man and unwise. If there is a journey of
a day or more to make, the horse should
be spared at the start, given a walk now
and then, with an occasional full stop, and
it will surprise most men to see how quick-
ly regain his lost energies. The
Arab naWan says, ' drive moderately until
the horse has sweated and dried off three
times, and after that you can let him go
forward freely andhe will not disappoint
any reasonable expectations. If it is ob-
served during the early part of a, day's
drive that the horse belches wind and al-
ternately passes it also, it will be idle to
expect any great performance until thia
condition passes off. In such a state the
abdomen will usually be more or less dis-
tended, and no horse ean give even a nuitl-
orate display; of his good qualities while in
this state. 'While on the road for a join.-
noy the horse should 'be fed his principal
meal at night, . first giving hint water- If
the horse leaves a quart or so of his oats at
the night feeding, he will rise from his
night's rest at three or four o'clock and
Aniali the feed. This is better than to give
a full feed in the morning just before start-
ing. .The full night 'feed', of will be
digested and Mainly assimilated by the
thne the morning,start as made, and inust
be mainlyre1id Urea to 'euetairi, the horse
through the day. This 18 eirnpiy becanse
,digestion i intetrupted and done at a great
disadvantage while the horse ia under
:satire ekereise, hence,fo' a degree,' fosd
'becomes a burden While the horet ia doing
full duty.' So, rightly fitted and cliaereetly
managed on the roadthe horse, reasonably
well caloulated for eltiviOgi will be up to the
standard fixed by the Poet :

In Oregon the canning and catching of
salmon employ 2,000 white men in various
capacities. It employs 2,500 Chinese, It
employs fifteen tugs and steamboats, and

Whole wheat le not much known in this
country as food, though it is largely used
in England. Of course it is both healthful
and nutritious, though to be easily digests
ed it requires long boiling. Then with
butter and sugar it makes a dish fit for an
epicure. It was the dish always served in
England among farmers in the olden time at
the conclusion of the wheat harvest.
It is now claimed that celery is a sure
cure for rheumatism; indeed, it is asserted
the disease is impossible if the vegetable be
cooked and freely eaten. The fact that it
is always put on the table raw, prevents its
therapeutic power from being known. The
celery should be cut into bits, boiled until
soft, and the water drank by the patients
Serve warm with pieces of toasted bread,
and the painful ailment will soon yield.
A calf was killed and the hide taken off
in Zionsville, Lehigh County, Pas, in the
morning. The skin was taken to Charles
Burkhalter's tannery at noon. By evening
of the same day Mr. Burkhalter had it all
tanned and promptly handed it to a shoe-
maker. By next morning a pair of boots
was completed and put en by the owner, so
that what was on living flesh of a calf one
day was a pair:of ,bootsahe next. It was
without doubt, the quickest tanning on re-
cord.
By order of the Duke of Cambridge 'the
prohibition against soldiers smoking in the
streets has just been removed, and the fol-
lowing clause has been substituted for the
last sentence of paragraph 18, Sec. 7, Queen's
Regulations and Orders for the Army; 1885 :
"Soldiers are not to go beyond the pre-
cincts of their barracks unless properly
dressed, and they are nof to smoke in the
streets unti1 after 5 p. in. from the 1st Oc-
tober to the 31st March, or 6 p. in. from the
1st April to the 30th September."
The following report of Inspector Smith
on the Murray Bay prison rather enlivens
the dullness of wading through a blue book :
—" The inspection was made on the 15th
July by inspector Smith. There were
three prisoners who remained in jail because
they liked it, as they took no advantage of
the many opportunities given them of escap-
ing either by the main gate, which was
nearly always open, or while the jailer was
absent. The walls were dirty and the plas-
ter needed repairing."
The English Commissioners of Forests
are planting extensively on the Crown pro-
perty in the Isle of Man. About four mil-
lions of trees have been planted on mountain
land during the last three years, and the
work has Improved so successfully that it
has been decided to extend the number of
trees annually. The planting is done almost
entirely by native labor, under the superin-
tendence of a competent forester from Car-
lisle, most of the trees having been ordered
from the well-known nurseries of Knowefield
in that city.
Among the old papers in the county
clerk's office in Freehold, N. J., is the death
sentence of a negro named Ccesar. It reads
"Therefore the court doth judge that thou,
the said Calsar, shall turn to the place from
whence thou comest, and from thence to the
place of execution, where thy right hand
shall be cut off and limier] before thine
eyes. Then thou shall be hanged up by
the neck until thou art dead, dead, dead ;
then thy body shall be cut down and burned
to ashes in a fire, and so the Lord have
mercy on thy soul, Cassar."
The year 1886 marks the ter -centenary of
the introduction of potatoes and tobacco
into Europe. Considering how universally
they are consumed now, it is almost a won-
der how the Eastern world pulled through
without them prior to 1586. 'Tobacco has
had of the two the more checkered career.
It hasbeen denounced from thrones and pul-
pits ; yet it has been the solace of some of
our greatest men, as for example, Carlyle,
Kingsley and T ennyson. Though in some
respects injur us, it has contributed in no
small degree to the comfort of manhood.
A gentleman was sketching with a brother
artist in a favorite resort of the craft when
a gentleman came up and entered into con-
versation. The stranger offered some friend-
ly criticism and advice to the younger of
the two sketchers, which the latter resented
by tellinghis would-be mentor, that, though
kindly meant, his suggestions were wrong,
and showed a lack of artistic knowledge.
" There," said the young artist afterwards,
"1 think I have disposed of that fellow ef-
fectually," "Ali," said the other, "he took
it very mildly. That was the great John
Everett Millias."
The latest London Canadian Gazette
says An interesting gathering took place
at the Colonial Exhibition on Saturday
evening, when, at the invitation of Mr. D.
Tallerman, a dinner was given in the Royal
Commission Dining Rooms to illustrate the
food resources of the' Empire. The hill' of

which were salmon from British Columbia,
shad from Prince Edward. Wand, mackerel
from New Brunswick, cod and lobster haft
Nova, Scotia; whitefish, trout; ,and pickerel,
from Lake Huron ; Australian rabbits and
.Australian mutton and beef. Among the
vegetables wore Canadian beams. The
sweets consisted of Fiji arrowrootpuddings,
Canadian farina pudding, tartlets and pas-
try of Canadian flout, and Canadian apple
jelly. The fruita were pineapples from
Singapore, Victorian point; VictOriari white
therries in syrup, and Canadian %SONS and
pears. There were else Canadian cheese
and butter and Western Australian and,
Canadian honey,

A newspaper was received the other flay
at the Boston Post Offive, addressed "Mr..

It is not convenient to forward the paper.
During the famous Repeal and Emancipa-
tion agitations at Cork, the late Wm. Hayea,
whose death, at the age of ninety-one, was
announced us London, was tis. conspicuous
figure. In 1826 he had a dispute with, a
Catholic lawyer named Brice and shot him
dead in a duel. Thereafter gr. Hayes kept
aloof from political matters, and devoted
himself to religion and works of benevolence.
We observe the announcement df the de-
cease of the aged Baroness de Forget (before
her marriage'Mlle, Josephine de Lavalette),
who heroically effeeted her father's escape
from the cells of those condemned to die in
the Bonaparte struggle. The plan was con-
cocted between herself and her mother, Mine.
de Lavalette, after the same manner as Lord
and Lady Nithesdale's in the Jacobite Re-
bellion.
A good story of clerical it is revived in
the papers lately, the anecdote of old Bishop
Mountain, of Durham, whose apt quotation
of a Scripture text elevated him to York.
That archbishopric falling vacant, King
George II asked his opinion as to the proper
person for the office. Dr. Mountain wittily
replied: " Haclst thou faith as a grain of
mustard seed, thou svouldst say to this
Mountain" (laying his hand upon his breast),
"Be thou removed, and, cast into the sen"
(See). The king was so amused by the sally
that he laughed heartily, and bestowed the
preferment.
Lord Savernake, who has lately sticceeded
to the vast estates of the Earl of Aylesbury
is probably the worst spendthrift in the
ranks of the British peerage. He is twenty-
three, receives over 8250,000 per year ;
owns three of the most splendid country
seats in the island ; and is a marquis, thrice
an earl, a viscount, twice a baron and a bay-
onet. He drives a cab ; presides at music
halls ; fights in the street like a butcher ;
has been twice in the police court this year
for it street battle; is an accomplished
sharper and married a variety singer of no '
character.
Mr. H. Rider Haggard, whose South Af-
rican Romance, "King Solomon's Mines,"
achieved such a success, is a barrister by
profession. At the age of 19—he is now
only 30—he accompanied Sir H. Bulwer as
secretary to Natal, and served on the staff
of Sir Theophilus Shepstone during his mis-
sion to the Transvaal, and it was during the
time he was at the Cape that he acquired
the local knowledge which he has turned to
good account. His first effort in literature'
was a history of events in South Africa,
published in 1882 under the title of "Cete-
wayo and His White Neighbors."
Mr. J. C. Forbes, R. C. A., of Toronto,
has just returned from a four months' trip
to the Rockies, where he has been sketching
with a view to putting on canvas some of
the most characteristic scenery of that re-
gion. Mr. Forbes has been most successful,
in the opinion of those on the spot, in de- ,
picting the grandeur of the mountains—no-
tably the " Hermit " in the vicinity of
Roger's Pass. In addition to several large
canvases, Mr. Forbes will paint some dozen
or so smaller ones, descriptive of life in
British Columbia, forming on the whole a
most interesting gallery for exhibition in
the coming Spring, and for subsequent ex-
hibition in England.
SCLENTIFIC MATTERS.
Coleman's mustard -oil - is a good remedy
for local rheumatism. It is used externally
in friction twice daily.
The odour of vinegar may be lessened by
filtering the fluid through charcoal. Its
strength is not impaired by the process.
A few drops of acetic ether administered
in water will, it is said, revive persons who
have been made insensible by inhaling illum-
inating gas.
It is asserted that dynamos generate al
larger quantity of electricity when worked
in a closed chamber under increased pressure '
than when exposed to the ordinary pressure
of the air.
The blood of the higher vertebrates has
long been used for the manufacture of albu-
men which has a high market value. Recent
inquiries show that equally good albumen '
can be obtained from the blood of fishes.
Persons who are colour-blind are usually
either red -blind or green -blind, and their
infirmity is almost always confined to one
colour. Cases of violet -blindness are rare,
and no instance is known of a person un-
able to distinguish between blue and yellow.
Peacock green stain for wood: A green
stain is produced by a solution of verdigris
in nitric acid; then, by dipping into a bot
solution of pearl-ash, the color may be
changed into bine. By varying the strengths
of the solutions used, the exact shade desired
can be obtained.
Every one does not know the proper way
to put out a lamp that has no extinguishing
apparatus. None of the cheap ones are thus
provided, and they should be put out as fol-
lows. The wick should be turned down un-
til there is only a small flickering flame.
Then a sharp puff of breath should be sent
across the top of the chimney, not down it.
Moles may be removed by cautery, by
excision, by caustics, by ligature, by elec-
trolysis. Of all these methods, eleetrolysia
is the best, because it leaves very little scar
and causes comparatively little pain. Cans -
tics cause the least pain and are easily ap-
plied, but their operation is tedious, and
they are apt to stain and disfigure the skin.
Formula for camphor -balls, popularly re-

Is the Gulf Stream Changing?
Captain J. W. Reynolds, of the steam-
ship City of Alexandria, which arrived
from Havana the other day, added his
testimony to the eccentric action of the
Gulf Stream. Ho says "The oourse that
I usually follow corning from Havana usual-
ly gives me from a three to a three and one-
half knot current along the Florida coast,
and nearly to the latitude of Savannah, and
from there to Hatteras a two to two and
one-half knot current. The current is
stronger, however, in the summer than in.
the avinter, and knowing this I took par-
ticular pains to choose the course where I
could expect' the most favorable current.
Along the Florida coast, where I expected a
three -knot current, its strength was not
more than one knot, and from below
Savannah to Cape Hatteras I had no
current at all. We usually see strong
r-ipples along tlse edge of the Galli Stream,
but I, saw none on, this trip. I don't know
the cause of this change, but I can hardly
attribute it to the effect of strong gales in
setting the current back. From Havana to
the Florida coast we had a moderate head
sea and thence a smooth sea up to Salad
Hook. The winds were froin the westward
ratherthan the north, and the barometer
was steady."
Fashions in Medicines.
A druggist has discovered that patent
mechemes have their fashions like hats and
walking sticks. There was a time when
plasters were all the rage, but after sticking
to them for some years public taste changed
and then kidney and liver medicines came
into vogue. People who never knew they
had kidneys began to take stuff that they
heard was good for them, and men like Helm
bold gotrich. Bitters were in style univer
sally at one time. A man whose sideboard
wasn't provided with half a dozen different
varieties of bitters was considered old-fash
ioned and destitute of chic. He was destitute
of stomacn, too, if he kept the bitters racket
going too long. Then there was the craze
for pads. There were lung pads, and liver
pads, and kidney pads, and foot pads.
'Writing pads came in about this time, too.
No nsan with any style about him at all fails
ed to go to his druggist and be measured
for a pad. With a full Inc of pads properly
adjusted undershirts were superfluous. Cough
remedies are having their innings now, there
being something like 300 in the market al-
ready, with any number of doctors and pre-
sessors sitting up nights concocting more.
