While everything else raised on the farm seems to bo selling for prices far below the normal, eggs and poultry hold up their values pretty satista0torily. And this has been the case for a number of seasons, Of course there are times certain markets are glutted with poultry and prices are weak, but even then, exceptionally good poultry commands profitable prices. Probably there is no farm product that has such a uniformity of profit as eggs and. butter. Eggs are always in demand especially in the winter, and if poultry raisers would only study the art of liming and preserving` egga in the summer months, they would greatly add to their profits. There are a great many hens that lay plenty of eggs in the summer, but they run out by late fall, and most be supported all through the the winter for very little rotiirn. They should be induced to lay all that they can in warm weather, and then when they ceasethey should be killed and sent to the fall market Limed and held eggs aro selling today in Boston and New York for 19 ate. and 21ats. per dozen wholesale, and they are in good demand. There are thousands of bakers and confectioners who find these held eggo 00 good for their work as strictly fresh, Cana- da has to come down and help supply the emend for these limed egga. Now, with HI) summer eggs selling at 18 and 19 caper dozen, and winter fresh -gathered a. at and 25 Dents, and sometimes as ei ; as 30 cents, one can make a good from this. source. It pays to raise chicken meat at 7 and 8 ants per pound, and generally it sells for a great deal more. The farmer can depend upon those minimum prices the year round, even during financial and business depres- sion. There has not been a time this season when obiokene have sold' for less. That really means mora than mutton, lamb, pork or beef, as arule,and with proper breeding, it takes less to raiso a pound of chicken meat than any of the others. But, after all, the chief thing is that the prices are nearly always uniform. There aro no sea. eons when prices ate one-half what they are tc.day, and another year of very high prices, The steadiness of the prices should attract. . Horse Breothng on the Farm We have never beau quite able to under. and why so many farmers look upon the urines of raising horses as foreign to the general purpose of the farm. The growing. of any crop, and the breeding of any other stook they consider as wholly within their province, and to be taken up as a branch of the work at any time and anywhere. They grow sheep, and beeves, and hogs every year, but raise a colt, if at all, only semi.ocoasionally, and apparently more by accident than from any definite purpose. Yet there is no animal that can be pro. duced on the farm that will pay better for Ms care and keep than a well-bred colt, to be turned off when it is three or four years of age. In handling horses for 'profit, eOmmon Renee must govern, just as with other stock. Good brooding lies at the foundation of profit, Then there must be. such feed and care as will conduce to early maturity. The class of horses that the market wants must be your guide in breeding. Good draft horses and good roadsters can find buyers at anytime. 1f you what to produce a horse that will be useful on the farm, aim dor good size, in combination with such muscular develop. ' meat as will enable the animal to held the largest loads on the roads and pull the farm implements with tho least fatigue You will observe that this does not mean, exceedingly heavy weights, In feeding horses, remember that quality has as much to do with feeding them properly as hes 'quantity. Proper nnueoular' development can only be made with good food, Do not attempt to break the colt, but rather edu. Date it, lotting the training begin as 'soon as it is able to stand. Do not keep him oe your hands so long )lot he will eat Up all the profit. It is an expensive matter to winter a well grown colt, and after he is three Stems old you should be pretty sure' that ho will make enough further gain to pay, before putting titin up for another Witter, In breeding' do not got tho'•idoa' that any old \vorn•outmare will do for a darn, if only you got a noted sire.To secure progeny et real value there must be good traits to inherit iron both parents. Some braodore of experience say )bat more wits show the characteristics of the darn than of the sire, Tho state of agrioalture in a g1001 smitten can almost always be jn(iged by the quality of the horses, and breeding them. Small olmeap animalo are never profitable to work with, and by breeding such you only perpetuate the ohaneeo for loss. It is not noeeoeat y that you snake a speciality of horse breeding, bub upon every farm one or two colts, at Toast, should bo foaled every veer, and as much attention paid to making them ready for market as f0 given to the Reeves, The pasturage required for bringing the horsy to marketable age is no more than ls, re- quired for the beef, the cost of care and )loaning 10 no more, and the diff'erenee in the grata feeding—wheu you consider that the beef must be fattened—is not groat. To grow a colt 10 one of the ways by which the farm can be made to pay better, Keeping Prost Ont 'of NUM. Ordinary farm cellars in which are kept canned fruits, cabbage, celery, potatoes, turnips, apples, etc., can usually be made warm enough bo keep out frost. To do this itis neoeseary sometime before holidays to carefully and effectually close up al windows and deers, of course allowing pro per ventilation whioh is one of the essential' of a well -kept storage room. Tor this pur, pose use saw dust, straw, or any other available packing material about the win- dows. If the cellar is reaohed from the inside as well as from without, the outside door can be treated the same way. If this workis properly done, the stores may be expected to be safe during any reasonable weather, But it often happens that at some time during the winter season an unusually oold spell of weather makes it necessary to use some additional means for keeping out the frost. If the chimney extends down into the cellar put up an old stove and' during the womb weather keep up a little fire, remembering not to raise the temperature too high for that will injure the contents of the cellar. Simply keep the air a little above freezing point, A very little fire will affect this. If a stove is not practicable the camp results can be obtained, probably with less trouble, by using alrero• Bene heater, These are largo lamps with broad wicks which oau be obtained for a dollar and Sometimes less. They are used on camping:excursions for cooking aid are sometimes called kerosene stoves, One of these planed in a cellar and the wick ad- justed to keep up the required temperature will need attention only onus or twice a' day and will be found most effective in keeping out frost during very severe and long continued cold weather, Wrong Kind of Farming. A correspondent gives his opinion of the difficulty with many farmers in his end of the country as to why farmers have a hard time to get along, mid it is worth a careful study. His ideas are as follows : "There is being so muoit said in the country'about hard tin'i•'l and the scarcity of money, and as evef yhody has a cause and knows a remedy, 1 ,bought I would write to tell your reader. . •'eat I think is the cause. The trouble to we buy more than we produze. There is too much flour and bacon shipped here every year. The things we ought to make at home we are buying. We let our timber rot and buy our plow stooks, singletreos, oxo handles, hoe handles and fending. We throw away our ashes and buy soap and axle grease. ' We give away our beef hides and buy ham strings and shoe strings. " We let our manure go to waste and buy guano. " We buy garden seed in the spring and cabbages in the winter, " We let our lands go up in weeds and buy our brooms. " We let the wax out of our pine and gum trees and buy chewing gum for our children. " We build school houses and hire teachers and send our children off to be educated, "We laud a five -cent fish with a $4 fishing rod. " We send a fifteen -cent boy out with a $20 gun and a 51 dog to kill birds. " We raise dogs and buy wool. - "And about the only thing in thie country that there is an oveeproduotion of is polities and doretios.'' Live Stook Notes. Never leb any animal get in poor flesh. If you do your profit upon it is gone, -The expense of restoring it to good condition is greater then the profit in any sorb of stock will warrant, ' Eleotricity is aotively engaged, every day, in taking away employment from light and medium horses. Yet Oome men go on breeding such, with a mistaken notion that there is yet an active demand for them. If one bas plenty of yard room, where the oattle can keep clean and dry, we think it is a gond plan to turn them out for awhile every pleasant day. Exercise, fresh ar and sunlight help wonderfully toward keeping them well and hearty. The best permanent pastures are obtain. od on land that is oomparatively low—nob wet. Higher locations are butter fitted for temporary grass growths as It is 'diffi- cult to secure a permanent sod there, one that will live and thrive season after sea- son. e The manure from different kinds of stock, fed in different ways, will be widely diler• ent in quality. It is a good elan to have a manure pit so arranged that all oar bo throw in together andthoroughly mixed before being put out to the field. The sheep farmer who puts his depen- donee in the bast breed rather than in the tariff, and goes ahead to produce a valuable mutton carcass and a good fleece of wool, is pretty sure to come out all right. Polities and legislative aid are pretty poor things for a farmer to build his hopes on. Perhaps you do nob think Mout to keep our stook in -doors all the time throughout ho winter? Bub at least boar in 'Mind that exposure to storms and sudden °henget' of temperature cannot fail tobo very detri- mental, Pay attention to thls and put diem under cover when the need appears.

Nothing iu the whole system of stook manegemout has been mere thoroughly proven than this. Perhaps there aro some among our read era to whom it has never 000urred to con- eider been as a legitimate part' of the farm stook.

If you want to a000mplish this end, and so increase the productive power of your soros, make arrangements now to a try it on a limited scale ext season. It is p not a very expensive experiment, Good breeding and early • maturity are recognized ae the highways toward profita with stook. Tho goo breedingohelps eomewhat towards the other, but early maturity is mainly a matter of the proper feeding of the young stock. Early matur- ing is simply impossibleit the aiimals are f stinted while they are forming bone and muscle. Another way in which economy mightbe well practiced, is in choosing the food with more caro, It is curious that we make it a matter of study as to how we shall feed our cattle with the utmost economy, giving them the food that will best promote health and strength and weight with the least cost, and give no attention to the - matter of feeding ourselves. It is wisest, of course, only to put up for winter feeding such animals as .are in the most perfect condition. Bab if you do have some that are a'litble thin of flesh, or nob quite up to par in any way, give them the warmest quarters, the best feed and the beet Dare of any. Ib will require all these to bring them out at a profit. FAMOUS METEORIC STONES. The Largest Known Weighs 00,000 Founds and WB',,e Found 10 Greenland, A meteoric stone, which is described by Pliny as being as large as a wagon,fell near tEgospotami in Asia Minor in 967 B. C. About A. D. 1500 a stone weighing 1,400 fell in Mexico and is now in the Smithsonian Institution ab Washington. The largest meteoric masses on record were heard' of first by Capt. Ross, the Arctic explorer, through some Esquimau. These lay on the west coast of Greenland and were sub- sequently found by the Swedish exploring party of 1870. One of them, new in the Royal Museum of Stockholm, weighs over 50,000 pounds and is the largest specimen known. Two remarkable meteorites have fallen in Iowa within the past twenty years. Feb.12, 1876, an exceedingly brilliant meteor, in the form of an elongated horseshoe, was seen throughout a region of at least 400 miles in length and 250 in breadth, lying in Miasouri and Iowa. It is described as "without a tail, but having a flowing jacket of flame. Detonations were heard' so violent as to shake the earth and to jar the windows like the shock of an earthquake," as it fell about 10:30 p.m., a few miles east of Mar- engo, Iowa. The ground -for the apace of some seven miles in length by two to four miles in breadth,was strewn with fragments of this meteor varying in weightfrom a few onncestoseventy-four pounds On May 10, 1879, a large and extraordin- arily luminous meteor exploded wibh ter- rific noise, followed ab slight intervals with less violent detonations and struck the earth in the edge of a ravine near Estherville, Itmmot county, lowa,ponebrab- ing to a depth of fourteen feet. Within two miles other fragments were found, one of which weighed 170 pounds and another thirty-two pounds. The principal masa weighed 431 pounds. All the discovered parts aggregated about 640 pounds. The one of 170 pounds is now in the cabinet of the State University of Minnesota. The composition of this aorolIte is pooulisr in many respects: but, as in nearly all acro• lftes, there is a considerable proportion of iron and nickel. Itis generally held that meteors at one bine or another formed integral parts of a comet. The meteor enters the earth's at- mosphere from without with a velocity relative to the earth that is comparable with the earth's velocity in its orbit; whioh is nineteen miles per second. By the re- eieteece it meets in penetrating the air, the light and the other phenomena of the inmin- pus train aro produced. Manyomalimeteor- ites are undoubtedly consumed by this fire, caused by friction, before they reaoh the earth's surface. INSANE AT SEA. --- radii* Anil Steamer Becomes a Floating Lunatic ANyln to., A San Franoieco despatch says :—The Pacific mail steamer Rio de Janeiro, which arrived yesterday from China, was a fioat- 111g lunatic asylum during • the voyage.

DeWsbltry, 1St 300051,01'O, the Groat Centre —lint the C11o10Va Fear Dine ti'aralpge,5 Buelneell. Those familiar with the 'treat trafno of Dewsbury will know that its distinguishing feature during ordinary business hours 10 the great number of lorries laden with bales of rags. These halos—nays a writer in the " Manoheter Guardian "—are being con. veyed to the greet warehouses erected specially for their reception, and belonging to auctioneers known far and wide, or aro being carried from those depots to the pre. mime of buyers in and around the town and neighbourhood, or are being emit to the rail. way companies' geode stations foriconvey. once elsewhere, With the public generally old !rags are old rage, and nothing more ; and very few people outside the clothing districts of Yorkshire know what an imporbantposition they take in trade and commerce. Old raga fpr the purposes of this article are of woollen, or have in their warp and woof a mixture thereof. They are brought to Dewsbury by hundreds of bons weekly, are pub under the hammer at the :well- knowu sales, and in a very short time are rags no longer, but rag•wool, otherwise "shoddy " or mungo," acoording to thou' quality and kind. Just now Dewsbury, to use an expressive Yorkslfiro word, is "pining" for rage. Tho bale -laden drays are comparatively few, and the extensiveQwarehouses, exoepo fn cases where British and Irish rage are dealt. with, aro empty, or nearly so. The cause in Dewsbury is only too well known. When cholera began to ravage certain parts of the European Continent, and threatened to extend to this country, the Local Government Board issued an order prohibiting the importation of rags. It wasa most necessary measure, but it inflicted a severoblow on the woollen trade.; and now an effort is being nada to bring about a relaxation of the order, so as to permits of rage being received from the Continent, for example, after they have. undergone a process of effectual disinfection, In rage there is an immense variety, as. everyone will know. A torn dress of mousseline-do-lainediffers ' widely in texture from the discarded ulster or the soiled wrap of its original owner; and'thoee fabrics have but faint reeemblanoe to the jersey of the sailor, the coat of the policeman or the soldier, or to the done -with ovening•drees suit of the man of society. e Rags come to Dewsbury from all parts of the world. Tho debris, so to speak, of the clothing of most nations is brought, ordinarily, by every tide and from almost every foreign and colonial port. The Rue- Sian, the German, the Italian, and the Turk ish soldiers, as well as the men of arms of other nationalities, surrender their united m at stated periods and when - these hab li• mento have perhaps found other usere,'and are ragged beyond repair, they are pub into bales by native buyers, and shipped to England for the Dewsbury sales. It is the same with the discarded carpets and blankets, the bed curtains, the window hangings, the woollen shirtinge, the stook ings, ive., of the people of all countries ; they are packed upand consigned to firms here, some of whom pay as much as from 33,000 to nearly 35,000 a year for carriage alone. An experienced buyer will look over a fewscore bales in an hour or so, and will be able to tell you where this and that name from. By the packing in some cases, by the smell of a bale in others, he can say whether the Levant, Germany, New Zeal- and, or Ireland, for example, has sent the goods. He arrives at an estimate of value very quickly, and cheeks his catalogue accordingly. At the sales hundreds of pounds quickly change hands, and soon the railway com- panies and other Lorries are taking the bales away, and the auOioneers' clerks are actively employed in advising 0onsignorsas to the prices realised,andonspecifieddays forward- ing cheques in payment. Io many ca500.mer• ohants in Dewsbury and the neighbourhood receive bales that have been purchased from agents abroad, and these are sorted and classified and then sent to the sales. Theragscomposed entirely of wool go direct to the grinder, whose ` devils" pull them into shoddy or mango, the material being according to the class of rag used The dust—•and there is much of it—ie blown into a receptacle, and in due course is sold for manure, the hentish hop -grower taking a large proportion. Rags of cotton and wool mixed require to undergo the "carbonising"or the "extract- ing" process;in other works to Have the vegetable fibre destroyed withogt the wool• len material being injured. This is soon done and then the "raw material," as it is called, is sold to cloth manufacturers, not oulyin Yorkshire but on theContinentand in America, and in due time—it may be months or years—it returns to Dewsbury and passes through the sales there to under- go once more the same processes already named. The Tower of Silenoe• The Parsecs will nob burn or bury their dead, because they consider a dead body impure, and they will not suffer themselves to defile any of the elements. They there. fore expose their corpses to vultures, a method revolting, pel'haps, to the imagina- tion, but one which commends itself to all those who are aaaquainted therewith. And, after all, one sees nothing but the quiet, white.robed procession (white is mourning among the Pa'eeea) following the bier to the Tower of Silence. At the entrance they look their last on the dead, and the corpse. bearers—a- caste of such—harry it within the preotnts and lay it down, to be finally disposed of by the vultures which crowd the tower. And why should the swoop of a flock of white birds be more revolting than what happens at the grave? Meanwhile, and for three days after, the priests say constant prayers for the depart. ed, for hie soul is supposed not to leave the world till the fourth day after .death. On the fourth day there is the Uthanna ceremony, when large sums of money are. given away in memory of the departed. The liturgy in use is a series of funeral sermons of Zoroaster. Of superstitions, the Parsecs have had more than they retain. Ooanected-with burial is the p0pluar conception as to the oflloaoy of a dog's gaze after death, Dogs are sacred, and supposed to guide the route of. the dead to heaven, and to ward off evil spit its; hence it i0 customary to lead a dog into the ohambor of death, that ho may looit al, the corpse before it is carried to the Tower.

This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced Into this country by the proprietors and manufacturers of the Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who have not, brought its merits alld value to the knowledge of the general publi. This medicine has completely solv.l the problem of the titre of indi- gestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system, It is. also of the greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from - whatever cause. It performs this by the great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its great curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach; the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strength- ener of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of moro real permanent value in the treatment end cure of diseases of the lungs than any consumption remedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nerv- ousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthener and cura- tive is of inestimablevalue to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten or fifteen years to the lives of many of those who will use a half dozezm bottles of the remedy each year.

As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nino -tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges- tics. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary' food does not con: tain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de- rangement. CnAw0O0DsvrLLE, IND.. Aug. 20, '60.
