Feed the Sod.
" With ordinary farm et' stable mono,
it will generally pay to use some potash
for own; 3.25 bo 160 poauds et muriate of
pobaoh has given profitable results." --Prof,
73rocks,'Massaohusetla agrioulturei volloge.
Very true, farmyard manure le rather
one-sided haling an Mess of nitrogen, and
a vast amount of organic matter, which
will keep up nitrificationin the soil, but
is deficient in potash. But I have long
been of the opinion that the cumulative
process of indirect fertilisation for all of
-of the ordinary grain and sale crops of the
farm is decidedly better than to apply
these manures, and fertilizers directly to
the sale crop. And then the effort to ltolp
out the deBaienoy' in tlid stable manure by
adding potash to'lb, -whllo good in itself,
is rather an uncertain and indefinite pram
Linc and makes the proper dlsbribution of
the potash dlffioulb.
The corn crop le always better if planted
upou a buried sod, and the sod is always
better it manure(' the year before it is buri-
nil, The place for all the manurial im u ne-
lation of the farm is on a. sod that is to be
plowed for corn the following year. Tile
sod is helped, and gives better results dor.
ing that year and the manure is gotten into
butter condition to feed the ensuing corn
crop than if applied fleetly to it. The sod
needs the potash too and should get it all
over.
So after, putting all the manure you can
make on the sod give it in addition all the
potash and phophorio acid you eau afford.
They will 008 gab away from you. .The
wonderfpl absorptive power of the soil will
hold them for the future crop, and the well
fed sod will give you a bigger crop of corn
for ib. With that increased mass of organic
'matter, the prowls of nitrification will go
on rapidly through all the hot weather
during which corn makes its growth, and
whatever nitrogeu may haveeeoapedin top'
dressing the sod will be made up many
tunes over.
I would advise the tee of not less than
'200 pounds of muriate of potaeh per acre on
the sod, and that the home-made manure
be made to stretch as far as possible. The
manure can be hauled out on the sod all
summer as fast as made and thus save the
enormous waste of leaving it in the yard,
and the hurry skurry to got it on land to
be planted in the spring. Use your manure
.and your fertilizers to feed a sod and trust
the sod tc feed your crops and you will
never bo disappointed.
Cows at Pasture.
We'bave never settled to our satiable

of tbo opinion that it does and believe that
this is why the experiments, in which 000
lot of cows have had grain for ten days and
another none, and then the two lots changed
about have not shown any material gain for
the grain fed.
Like the week of braining for the race -
bores, the short triol of grain does not pre-
pare the cows for a larger flow of milk. It
takes preparation for all great efforts and
cows that are wanted to give a large and
steady flow of milk for 10 or 11. menthe of
each year must be prepared for it. Sop -
pose that our experimenters had taken two
lots of cows which had received only an
ordinary grain ration during the winter,
andwhich bad been giving about en equal
quantity of milk, and upon turning to
pasture the grain was stopped entirely to
one lot but fed all summer to the nob
would not the cows which received grain
give enough more milk during the summer

Buried on Foot.
CIeinent Spelman of Narburg, Recorder
of Nobtingham,England, who died in 1679,
is immured upright inclosed in a pillar in
Narburg Church, so that the inscription is
directly against his face. Thomas Cooke,
who was,, governor of the bank of England
from 1737 to 1739, and wbo had formerly
been a merchant residing in Coustantinople
died ab Stoke Newington, Aug. 12, 1752,
and by his directions his body was carried
to Morden College, Blackheath, of which he
was a trustee; it was then taken out of
the coffin and buried in a winding sheet
upright in the ground, according to the
English custom.
Jonson was buried at Westminster in an
upright position ; possibly this may have
been on account of the large fee demanded
for a full-sized grave. It was for a long
time supposed that the story was invented
to a000unt for the smallness of the grave-
stone ; but, on the grave being opened
seine years since, the dramatist's remains
were discovered in the attitude indicat•
ed by tradition. The following quota-
tion from Hearne's " Collection of Anti-
quarian Discourses," vol. I„ p. 212,
shows thatthe upright position of burial was
adopted in the case of Captains of the army:
"For them above the grounds buryed, I
have by tradition heard that when any,
notable captninediedin battle or camps the

Every Watch is a Compass.
A. few days ago I was standiug by an
American gentleman,' when I expressed a
wish to know which point was north, say
London Truth, He at once pulled out his
watch, looked at it, and pointed to the
north. I asked him whether he had a com-
pass attached to his watch. " Ail watches,"
he replied, "are compasses.' Then he ex-
plained to me how Ibis was. Point the
hour hand to the sun, and the south is ex.
aotly half way between the hour and the
figure XII. on the watch. For instance,
suppose that it is four o'clock. Point the
hand indicating four to the sun and II on
the watch is exactly south. Suppose that
it it eight o'clock,. point the hand ind`nicat-
ing night to the sun, and the figure X ou
the watchisdue south. My American
friend was quite surprised that I did nob
know this. Thinking that very possibly I
was ignorant of a thing that everyone else
knew, and happening to meet 1VIr. Stanley,
I asked that eminent traveller whether he
was aware of this simple mode of discover-
ing the points of the compass. He said
that ho had never heard of it, I presume,
therefore, that the world is in the same
state of ignorance. Amalfi is peond of
having been the home of oho inventor of the
compass. I do not know what town

Who Invented the Piano ?

which he sold to Samuel Crispi, the author
of " Virginia," from whom it was purchased
by Fulke Greville, though Count Cerli
claims the credit for Bartholomeo Christo-

method for generating a current by means
of heat from a candle.
Telco an equal number of lengths of cop-
per and German silver wire (gay six inches
long) and twist their ends together in the
manner shown in the illustration, alternat-
ing bhe metals In the arrangement so that
they will run first German silver, then
Dopper, then German silver again, and so
on. This accomplished, the resulting chain

pert (figure 3.) It will be found when this
is done that there are two free ends of the
wire—one of oopper and one of Gorman
silver. These are what is known as the
terminals of the instrument. To these, by
means of conducting cords, must be con.
nested a simple galvanometer to show how
muah currant will pass.
If now a oandie or a gas jet be placed un-
der tile wires so that the flame can play on
rrc.. n.
the inner points of the "star" a current of
electricity will be produced strong enough
to deflect the needle of the galvanometer.
Simple as this little machine is it may be
indefinitely modified and, in new shapes,
made to do larger and more extended duty.
For instance, the rings may be taken off
the support and the inner ends of the
"star ' bent down at right angles to the
outer ends so as to form a series of legs, as
it were. Then, if the affair is stood on top
of a hot stove or furnace, the same effect is
obtained as with the candle, only there is
more of it, the degree of effect, in fact, be.
ing proportional to the degree of heat.
The phenomena which govern those mani-
festations seem to be the result of the re-
versal of the old rule " electricity in its
passage always generates heat." Reversing
this rule it is found that heat, when it
oroeses the two wires whose molecules are
in opposite conditions, generates an electric
current.
It is necessary to have the wires in the
instrument described above twietod tightly
at their ends. This is the secret of its per -

feet working. The dissimilarity in the two
metals used is marked, and following the
ruin laid down a current of eleutricity is
generated as soon as heat is passed across
the junctions..
Thermoelectricity has not been develop-
ed as yet sufficiently to render it commer-
cially valuable. There is no telling, how•
aver, how Boon it may come to take its
plass in equal competition with other
branches of the science. It has lately been
found that tin-cantimony and soft iron form

German silver, and will if molded into con-

been round the world enough tunes to make
a landsman giddy at the very thoughts of it,
I'll just tell you of a little adventure we
had with one ofthmn man -tinting monsters.
"Well, one day we were becalmed on the

—says he, 'I obeli have a swim round for a

the deck to keep, ib from catching fire.
"In feet, a pig we killed the day afore we
hung aloft and roasted him in the sun,
etching the gravy in a Meekest, and he was
done beautifully.
"So in he goes, head first, with his
clothes on, and ole and his old man looked
over the aide, just abaft the forerigging, to
ses him oomo to the top of the water
again.
'Bub no Bill could we sue, and instead of
him up came a tremendous shark with his
sides sticking o.t as if he had a cargo in-
side over and above his regular bill o' lad-
ing.
'It wan then as clear to us as the nose
on our faces that poor ]till had dived clear
down his throat.
"The poor old man had a fit right away
and we carried him below and put him in
his hammock, and' then ran up on deck
again in the hopes that we should be able,
to catch tine fellow.
"But it was nowhere to be seen; so, after
watching some time to no purpose, we went
down below to see how the old man was
getting on, and to our astonishment and sor-
row we found his body nearly cold and as
stiff as the flying jibboom.
" W e sewed him up in his hammock, put-
ting the grindstone that he used to grind
his tools with inside to make it sink and
laid the body on a hatch, with the anion
jack spread over it for a pall.
"Then the skipper rend the funeral serv-
ice, all of ns standing round dreadfully out
up, me especially, for young Bill was my
messmate, and I was very fond of the old
man.
" As soon as the skipper has finished the
last words—which I shall never forget, they
was so solemn --the hatch was tipped up
and overboard the body went with a
splash, and all was over, at least we thought
so.
"But almost immediately afterward up
comas another shark, a bigger one, it seem-
ed, than the Brat ; certainly it was tl» eker.
" The boatswain at once ran for the shark
hook and baited it with a junk of pork and
slung it over the stein, and it was not many
minutes afore we had him hooked and haul-
ed on dook.
' Well, the first thing we did was to
out his tatl off, for he was flapping it about
so that it shook the ship from the stem to
stern, that we were afraid it would shake
her to pieces.
After we had done that we thought we
heard a very strange noise inside of him, a
sort of grating sound, like a boat being
dragged over a shingly beach.
" So we set to and cut off his head, and
then ripped him up, when what d'ye chink!

sharpening his kniie, intending to out their

" You say "said the old man was dead?
Please don't interrupt me and I'll tell you
all about it.
" There's no doubt but what he 'seemed
dead, but it was only his blood froze with
horror, and the shark warmed him to life
again.
What made him most uncomfortable,
Bill said,was the slipperiness and topsytur•.
veyness of the place, tor there was no rest
at all,for one minute he was standing on his
head and the next on his feet, and then
tossed from one side to chs other,soenetimes
getting jammed between its ribs, that he
wondered the meal didn't disagree with the
fish itself.
"But at last Dame the climax, and Bill
thought it woe all over with him for down
