vountries; In Bavaria, in 1707; Baden,
1815; Wartemburg, 1818; and in Swed-
en, in 1816.. Where it was not cone
palsovy it was largely adopted at
first.
Peeclerick William III., ot Prussia,
an 1803, issued a doe e requiring the
authorities to active prosecution of
vaccine tion.
DISEASE VANISHED RAPIDLY.
Within a few years the mortality
from smallpox diminished so rapidly
tbat the disease, as ate epidemic, appeared to be vanishing from Europe.
As an example, both of the rapid
spreild of vaccination and. the rapid
decline) et smallpox, Sweden can be
taken as an example. This yearly
average deaths from smallpox in the
country before vaccination was 191 per
100,000 of population. In a far y few
years the rate fell to the small tigure
of 7 in 100,000 of population.
The decline of tbe disease in Eu-
rope, after vaccination, was so rap-
id indeed, that it was said to "aston-
ish the world."
About) the third deeade of this cen-
tury, however, iimallpox inc-ased
again in certain countries, •and then
the question of re -vaccination was
brought prominently before the pub -
lie notice. .
ne era of re-vacoination began at
first in the armies. The Wurtem-
• burg army led the way in 1833, with
the result that (luting the twenty
years before the epidemic. of 1870-5
not eme eraallpox deathl occurred. The
Pet -lesion army followedin 1834, and
while during the five years pre-
cious. there had been 370 deaths, an
average of 71 a year; in the army
during the thirty-five years there
We; only 77 deaths, an eyerage of
only 2.2 yearly.
The Bavarian army adopted: re -vac-
cination in 1843, and from thence till
1870 had one/ 6 deaths finm
pox. Vaccination made only slow
progress in England comparatively,
and it was not till reach later that
vaccination, of all recruits, was es-
tablished. It took fifty years of Eng-
land- to enjoin vaccination by law up-
on all children.
Sueth is the history of vaccination.
That it is a great preventive against
Smallpox is admitted by medical Inen
all' over the world. ,

There is no line of emit on the farm
tlmt will not give a moan steady and
eatietactory 'moo= than the work of
the iudiastriotts hen, provided she is
looked, aftex es she should be.
Tho first reason why hens are not
paying is lack of 'knowledge as to how
best to handle tbeen Raising and
caring for poultry leas to be learned
like anything else. Success is not ate
tained jest off -hand any more than
it is in any other line .of work. Near-
ly every one ttennts tbeY can raise

are roietakeu. It requires stielY, in
fact, it requires an apprenticeship,
for there is so much to learn about
evening and hatching the chicshe and
feeelnag -And caring for them.
The next reason for non-success ia
Ln the feeding. Work JIOTSCS are fed
in order that they Ines, be in condi-
deal to dei a goon day's wer.l.t. Row
teu the hens lia ve to look after their
own feed. Dnring the eumener they

They need regular teed in tbe 611111 -
Mar as well as: int tliO white. Then,
in Me wt?, the ceenreranding of a
enesfal ration is no elegy matter.
The ineeote must be supplemented by
t 'scrape, tbe grass by dried grass
tabes, etc., and the grain
mast be varied. Just as we have

CARE AND utesr 05' 1CIIINiRY.
It takes quite a stun on money to
fit up 4 farm with suitable farm ma-
tibinery, wagons, farming tools, etc,
Some articles in the last $ornewhat
elastic Item might perhaps be tits-
pensed with, eueb as a email black-
smith forge with a low tools, and a
mall kit oe earpenter's tools, but if
a man bas nagenuity enough to naake
a igoocl eled stake or properly sharpen
a nonce pest, these tools will soon pay
their cost. It has bleat but a few;
yeers sinos the fanning ttxds of tbe
average farmer were extremely lime
lied in amount and expense in -com-
parison with the tools at the present
time.
Tile change has bean a rapid and
radical one. The machinery which
at ;first seemed to be a bit of extrav-
agance is now an abstract necessity,
and the question to -day is how mien
machinery can the farmer use to ad-
vantage. Many farmers buy too
much machinery, And some not
enough Those who buy too much do
not [stop to think that the intere.st on
the money for machinery that is not
much needed, and the loss by usage
and probably lack of care, would go
a long way towards doing the work by
hand, and the wet of the machine
could be used ins stopping an interest
leak somewhere. On the other hand
stinginess in denying one's self need-
ed Maohinery on the farm, or handy
applia?ces for the good wife in the
henese
is fax from being economy. At
the present dme Leber is the costli-
est thing that the farmer buys, and
good judgment is needed to know
when machinery can be made to take
nee ;place of hand labor to advantage.
Another important matter in con-
neetion with farm. machinery is oare.
The moving machines, horse rakes and
wagons ef hundreds of farmers would
lase twice as lone as they now do, if
they were kept in good order and well
housed whein not in use.

of that sort, but the supply of boys
presently exceeded the demand for the
work they were doing, and then it
was that the officer in chaege of them
hit upon tbe laundry idea.
The women who formerly did all the
washing for the homes did it badly,
after the manner of London washer-
women. They were slow, too, and
putting a garment into the wash was
like putting money into a lottery.
You might get it back with a lot of
other things that didn't belong to
you, but the chances were in favor
of your never seeing it again. The
officer figured out that as boys like
to dabble in water they might take
to laundry work rather better than
one would suppese. So he engaged a
latendryman, set up an assortment of
tubs, mangles, ironing boards and
•boilers in one of the homes situated
on Latimer road, and tried it on. That
was last August and the results have
proved rather surprising.
Most of the boys, when first intro -
(Woad to the tubs, wringer and iron-
ing board, grumbled a lot about being
"made olcl women of," as they put
it, but the idea appealed to them more
on the whole than slicing hard wood
into °hips. They regarded the work
as a huge joke at first, and spent
most of their time splashing each oth-
er liberally, but before they blew it,
they began to take real iutereet in
doing their work well, and really were
fairly expert by the time the Church
Aemy found them situations else-

work, such as daenty things. They

preach at a little out-of-the-way
'country church. He found a eortgre-
gation of one, and to him he preach-

city, a stranger touebed the doctor's
arm and introduced himself as the
single listener, who bad thought over

she came the service went on; but if
she failed, then the clergyman and the
clerk bad a holiday.

HAD RICHES—THAT WAS ALL.
The "nowise) World" says:—Isaac
Gondon, the money lender, is number-
ed among the dead. Neither his life
nor his death have pointed a moral.
The man was unquestionably a mono -
manic, typical of no class of his fel-
low beings, and in some eases a piti-
able but "awful example." Being
the excess in every direction, he failed
even to impress one with the wretch-
edness and evron,g of his calling. He
lined hated, he died despised and eon
-
detained, with' none so poor in spirit to
no him reverence; whilst =my, per-
haps, thtnkItne best of his career was
the ending of it. Our mere humanity
melees us saudder at the thought of
this lonely life and unsorrowed death
