Men in high Authority haVe told us with perfect assurance to haul and spread as fast as made end no lose need be feared, as all the Valuable elements will sink into the moil and become part and parcel of it. During the World's Fair many things which had been supposed to be facts were proven to be fancies, and cluriog the year an experi- ment was made which, proved some new facts along the line of applying fertilieere, The eeperitnent did not take piece at Ohicego but in Dearborn county, It was made by Mr. Seth Platt, who by the way is much of a scientist. Ile made the experiment in the bellowing manner : took a two-inch tube eixteee inches in length and filled it nearly full ef dry earth, placing on top of the earth a quan- tity -of sale. He then poured, on water frequently and at the end of 24, hours the moisture had reached the bottom of the tube, and 'with the moisture had come enough Salt to give to the earth a salty taste. The experiment dunes that what- ever is soluble in water goes wherever the water gees.f Therefore all fertilizing ele- ments which are soluble in water, whether they be from stable manure or cornMeenial fertilizers, go down into the soil With the water to whatever depth it goes. In fall and winter much rain falls and some of the manure at least becomee soluble cud flows off on the surface. This less is perhaps not very area b,still it amounts to something, as may he seen by the color of the water we see flowing from the fields where the man- ure is spread. But suppose that all that becomes soleble goes into the soil. The experiment sboivs that anything soluble in water goes with the water, and if the salt will go clown the tithe 16 inches surely the potash in the manure will go down just as far as the water goes. So also With the other ele- ments of fertility; they all go with the water in whieh they are dissolved, In the case of coarse manure perhaps very little of it becomes eoluble during the winter - There will always be some loam, however, with any manure.' Now for the other side of the question. If the 'ground is not frozen so that the water, instead of running off, goes into the eon and the sell is filled with roots like clover, it is quite likely' that most of the fertilizing elements are taken from the water as it passes on its downward course; but unless the soil is filled with roots and many of these, be long and fibrous, there will be loss, because the water in many cases goes to a great depth and in time reaches the streams, It is probable that when a- rain or 'snow feels upon quite dry eon a large per cent, of the fertilizing elements- is absorbed by the dry particles' of earth, which act as a filter, bnewhen more water falls it takes up the particles again in solution and carries them on down into the lower portions of the soil. We see the process illustrated in the leaching of athes. The ashes represent the soil filled with potash and other elements of fertility. We pour water upon the ashes and the potash therein becomes part of a solution and Passes down the depth of the barrel or box in which they are placed, which is in many eases 4 feet or more. From this it appeara that about the only place we are safe in spreading manure is upon clover sod, We are toldtthat the roots of clover alvsays have their mouths open ready to feed upon and store up any fertility that ebines to them. There is a place, how- ever, where manure is quite safe and that is under a good roof, provided of course that it is frequently forked over or kept tramped down solid to keep it from firing. It may be cheaply stirred by the brood sows which are kept over winter. Manure handl- ed in this way becomes quite short and may be put upon the ground after plowing, and harrowed into -the soil, when it gradually becomes available for the ass of the growing crop. This is merely safer then to spread in winter and take all the chances of toss,--E0hio Farmer. et TIONEERS; ET.A DY, LIGEN$ED AUC1- • tieneer for the County of Huron, ,Charees moderate.

THE DECOY DUCK. Or, Vow lend.° eft:yang, Altnerigh Ile Hail No Gun, Got There AU the Sane. A man can easily show his humanity in the way he treats his horse in Winter. Does he alwayst blanket his animal when a a stop is made, or, on the contrary, is the poor beast allowed no protection from severe and cutting winds? Is the bit warmed and the frost taken out before the cold iron is put into the month? These are perti- nent questions to aak any horseman this cold winter when the mercury is hovering about the zero point. The farmer has really no besinese to bother with trotting stock, -when good road - eters and heavy draft animals are in good demand and olfee reasonably sure oppor- tunities, for fair profits. The stylish driver, or the very heavy horse of good form, weighing twelve to fourteen hundred -pounds, is just about certain to pay the breeder, even if horses are cheap, as is the case at preaent. Oats are the grain par excellence for horses, and should form the basis of all their retions. Farm horses may have ten or tWelve quarts per day of a Mixture of equal parts bran, oats, and corn. This, with ten pounds of hay daily, should keep the horses in good condition. Don't forget to have a piece of rock salt in every man- ger at all tithe, Farm horses, as a rule, fail to make much aequaintance with currycomb and brush, At least they don'tThecome as intimately acquainted with these useful articles of the toilet as would be profitable. The brush, IA an active hand, polishes the hair, stimu- lates the skin to healthy action, and saves feed, Less ()ate and more grooming are equivalent to more oats and less mmoining. The question is, then, Which is cheaper, oats or grooming? Home -Made Peed Rack. This rack is 10 feet lone, Se feet high, and 3 feet 4 inches wide, it is open at top and had no bottom in.

Dav's sviezeres. they get another incest -tee in wages and are placed at a ledger in which the current accounts of the bank's customers are kept. AT THE END OF THEIR FIFTH FEAE, if the manager thinks that the young men are steady and trustworthy, they are again increased in salary, say to $600, and given charge of a teller e box, where they receive the deposits. By constant effort and good conduct a email percentage of bank clerks rise above this level, and are promoted to positions as paying tellers - most responsible positions.' These young men have thousands of dollars daily passing through their hands, and require to give heavy bonds to secure the bank against loss in case of dishonesty or mistake, and seldom receive more, and 'very often less, than $800 for their setvices. Ninety-five per cent, of all the young men who enter banks fail in obtaining positions above the grade of paying teller. Those who get be- yond. this grade join the ranks ot the ac- countants,a technical term which to bankers means a Ovoid of men who exercise a general supervision over the office and are next in rank to the manager. These men receive annually from $500 to $1,500 according to the importance of the office in which they are engaged. Menagerie salaries, eel): rule, iange from $1,5C0 to $2,50Ct. There are, of course, bankers of the standing elf ,Messrs. George Hague, Duncan Coulson, D. R. Wilkie, Byron D. Walker and a few others who COMMAND -FROM $15,000 TO $35,000 • annually, but all such men may be count ed upon the fingers of a man's hands. The great bulk of the workers in Caaclian banks do not earn as much money annual- ly as do men in other walks of life em- planing the same amount of energy, intellect and ability. StilIJECT TO INDIGNITIES. Banlemlerles are subject to many indigni- ties unknown to /ether bread -winners. Tor instance, many of the banks wilrfat allow them to get married without permission; they must in many' instances, board in certain houser named by their superiors; they mut, only associate with ,a certain class; they are watched when off duty, and if caught in a saloon or certain other pleas- ure resorts are warned, and if caught eeccmd time dismissed; they may not have creditors; they may pot attend rectse in- lie tepee too frequently at the theatres, while to be seen entering a pool -room would mean instant dismissal. I remember some ten years ago a certain general manager supplied all his Tot -onto clerks with mem- bership tickets for the Y.

Wonsan Tries to leiseose an Infant Lett Upon lier Hands. An Incliatmpolis special says :-The un- usual' spectacle of an infant being offered for sale at a market stand was witnessed here when Mrs. Jackman, an elderly wom- an, who has a stand at the east market, ,offered to dispose of a2 -moth -old babe to her customers. She said that the child was born to a young woman who gave her name as May Lewis and her home as Chicago, mod who said that the name of the child's 4 fablierevas leathchild.

When the officer approached, a WOnlan offered to take the babe and. care for it, and it was turned over to her, but au hour later she returned with the babe, saying her husband would not let her keep it.

Those who remain are usually men who been not the capacity for a snore active struggle in life, or who, having lest ambition, are prepared to spend the 'rest of their days he ;plodding along with just enough money to keep the wolf froln the door. MY EXPERIENCE OF DANK MANAGERS has been that they are for the most part. men of more than ordinary ability,and who would have made tncney at any other busi- ness. They are essentially acute judges of human nature. They, are daily in contact with men who are trying by every means to eecure the moneys of the bank 'upon worth" - less paper. They, must be meneveho in an instant can decide as to whether the ens tamer ig honest or not, and are also called upon to select from the raw material with which they are supplied capable and erupt - worthy clerks for promotion. Therels practically no spirit de corps among bank clerks. They are all auspi- cious of their fellows: The accountant and the local manager are looked upon much in the same light that the ordinary citizen views a detective. Notwithstanding all the care exercised by the officials in the selection of clerks, there aro in this city bank clerks whose salary does not exceed $000 Very little additional evidence was brought forward.

Briefly they were .; AfanWherrell said he had met Corr, the hired mem at Fitzger- ald's Hotel in York -street, on Dec, 13, and asked the latter if he knew where he could get work. Cory said he might get work with 'Williams. MacWherrell left the city next day at noon, arriving t Williams' about 5. He saw Williams, is wife in the yard and. asked for Biomes said' he; had engaged a Wherrell tefb-fen the city trio cars near Miralco.

In answer ta an advertise. meat, he sold the horse to a, butcher for $15. When. arrested MacWherrell trembled and' his mouth quivered. The pea -jacket worn by'MacWherrell was found in his room at Stableford's, MacWherrell denied ever wearing a Persian lamb or imitation cap.

Aden, Sues, Naples, and Lisbon, aS which his ship touehed, did not imprees him deeply with their importereee, "probably," say the commentator, "because much novelty at once was beyond his metupre- liension." His experience at Amsterdam, however, struck terror to his 'heart. " I went into the city," writes Amur, " and saw how women took men by the arm and talked with them, and 1 thought, 'This city is surely ch e dwelling place of the evil spirits ; this is the end of the world, and 1, .Amur, will be lost forever.' So I went back to the ship and lay down on nay bed," Although 25 years old, and a tried war- rior on his native coast, Atnur Went from fright to fright after reacitting Berlin, "One day my teacher took me to the land of the beasts," he writes of visit to the Berlin Zoological Garden. " It Was garden, and I saw in it, lions and gazelles, and leopards, and the wild horse thippepotemes), and the elephant, and giraffes and zebras, and all the beasts of thliland and water, from the big ones to the little ones from rets.to snakes, from the little fishes to the great ones. And as I saw them, I was amazed. There were hens and all other birds, and. every beast was in ite own house, and every house was as the bone Of Said All, a batiste of wonders (palace of the Sultan Of Zanzi- bar). Then I said to myself ; "Is this paradise or thie world ?" But I did not speak. 1 kept quite still. My friend ask- ed : 'Is there aeything like, this in Zanzi- bar?' Answered. '0, yes, eve have things like this,' but in my heart I was afraid. I would not tell my friend lest he should say I was afraid of the beasts, fox' such beasts I had not seen in my. life." Of the Urania astronomical theatre, Amur says: "I saw there how the sun set and was afraid. i wondered. if it was all real, and 1 asked. my friend : 'Are we in Berlin or are we on the sea?' 'We are in Berlin,' he anewered; iWhy do you ask, Amur ? I told him that I only wished to know, but in my heart I was afreed, only I did not wish him to know of my fear. Finally we went away, and I went home and lay awake until morning, for I could not sleep." Amur was not the least amazed by the splendor of the 'Berlin behr saloons. "I thought in my. heart," he writes of one 'saloon, "if the aaloon looks like this, what must, the house that the owner lives in ! A house like this, I told my friend, I lead never seen. It is es fine as the Sultan's; yea, finer. And I said, 'Praise to God, the ord of the worlds.'"
