-7 . Beautifylng Farms. Great progress has been made within the past twenty-five years among the farmers of the country, not only in making their farms more productive, but in making them more attractive. This, in a lange measure, is the result of ‘prosperous farming. Those who had debts to pay, did not feel able to expend much in ornamenting their places; but since they haye freed themselves from this burden, they have been more disposed to attend to’%he appearance of things. 3 here has been, also, an advance in taste. There are not so many now, as fotmerly, who decry all attention to, the ornamental as a waste of time and money. This race of niggardly and boorish men is fast dying out. Increasing intelligence, the circulation of agricultural reading, the formation of agricultural societies, the infysion of a larger element of 'eguca' ted and cultivated men into the profession, have had a powerful influence in securing more attention to the esthetics of farming, instead of having everything expended for mere pecuniary returns, And this is a great advance. It ennobles the pursuit of farming. Man is a creature of taste and not a mere grub; and he who neglects to cultivate and to gratify this element in his nature, degrades himself, Any one may form a pretty correct estimate of the intellectual, if not the moral state of his neighbors, by simply looking over their farms. The -one who allows his buildings and lands to lie in a solvent state, when he has the means of improving them, may be a money-loving, but he will also be a slovenly man with no elevating instincts, It isa gieat mistake to suppose that ‘money spent in reasonably improving ‘the appearance of a place._ is thrown away. It may be doubfed whether there is any more direct method-of ingreasing its pecuniary value. | Certainly Its market value will depend ‘very much on its outward appearance. Tasteful and well painted buildings, well arranged yards and gardens with neat fences, shade trees properly disposed, good farm fences and cleanly kept fields, will set off u farm to great advantage and make an amazing difference when it comes'to be sold. And ‘even if it be not sold, these things will add amazingly to the enj¢ y'x‘gpnt of it by, its possessor, if he be not blind to everything but the dollar. ; ~ Every man, too, owes it to the com-: munity in which he is living to contribute. to general -reputation and to public enjoyment, by making all his surroundings as mttractive as possible. There is such a thing as paying too much attention tothe outside and to show ; but there 1s reason inall things, and a measure of time and ‘attention and expense should be devoted . by every one to making his farm and his home more and more attractive every year that he lives. f

. About Crows, ; At a late meeting of the Farmers’ Club of New York, the question as to whether crows are an advantage, or otherwise, to farmers, came up, and Mr. A. 8. Fuller, of New Jersey, said : ~ “Like many others I was taught when a boy to look upon the crow as the com: mon éncmy of the farmer; in fact, that it was the duty of every boy to shoot a crow whenever he had a chance. A tew years sitce I commenced keeping tame crows, and since that time I have changed my mind with regard to- that bird, and al. though the old Adam which is so strongly manifested in the habits of some of my neighbors, prevents me from keeping -tame crows, still I encourage the visits of the wild ones. Within a hundred rods of 'my house there isa piece of woods whére the crows, congregate in immense ‘numbers, and’lay:their eggs, and raise their young, consequently I havea good opportunity of studying their habits, and I am free to confess that each year’s investigation only increases my admiration” of this alinost universally condemned bird. One of my neighbors and myself have grown corn for several years right alongside of this resort of the crows, and I do not believe that we have suffered a losa of fifty cents a year trom their dep-, redations, The only scarecrow we use i§ whito twine stretched on stakes over the fields. for a few weeks while the corn is young. The remainder of the year the crows are allowed free range through my garden and fields. Rose bugs, cut-worms, and othér noxious insects have rapid& decreased since I adopted this system and conduct towards this bird. It is said that the crow will destroy the young of other species of birds, also eat their eggs, and they may do so to avoid starvation, but if they really loved such food I am sure that there are crows enough in the town where I live to destroy in one weekall the birds" nests in the State of New Jersey. ~ The smaller birds make their nests'in almost every bush on my place, and they are never disturbed by the crows, although I have ‘often seen them light upon' the very shrub in which & sparrow bad a nest of eggs, and even in the very woods where I can find fifty crows’ nests - any day in early summnier, the little birds "make their nests and rear their young un‘disturbed. All the stories that are fold of the villainy of the crow may be true. If so, they must be of a different species ~from any that I-have seen. §

Flatulent Colie. | Flatulent Colic, or flatulency, is a disease that principally affects the 'large intestines, and consists in a distention of these viscera, produced by the formation of gases. - The gases supposed toibe so generated by the decomposition of food, . &c.,.are either carbonic acid gas or sul-! phuretted hydrogen. Flatulent Colic is! oftener’ met with in old horses than in' young ones, and often arises from a weak- | ened condition of the digestive apparatus! generally. This is caused by being fed for a' lengthened period on food ‘of a! stimulating and heating nature. ‘When in young and healthy horses, it is fre: quently produced by giving a change of! food. During the pas) winter it has been prevalent in some instances where Indian: corn has been given as a substitute for oats, where the oats were at once stopped and full measures of corn allowed, It is often produced by feeding “on wheat or barley, or by giving a large quantity of “food immediately after-a long journey o a bard drive, s Many of the symptoms of this com:! plaint are common to spasmodic colic, and other painfal bowel affections, such at uneasiness, lying.down and rolling, but th’ia 1:3 nature of the disease ia soon de, wweloped, and easily recognized by the distended condition of the abdomen ; and this distention is generally greatest at the right flank. The horse 'sugers viofént pains, and if not relieved, the disease contipues’ to increase, and may cause - death by a rupture of the diaphragm or of ®me part of the intestines, or from asphyxia. ! . In the treatment of flatulency, the patient should have n' good stimulant’combined with a laxative, as sulphuric ether two ounces, lin seed oil one pint, iﬁ clysters should be freely used. In so cases the chloride of lime appears to act _beneficially by neutralizing sone of the E?‘fﬂﬁ . Wibhi t.lg,in si!; “e“"' .and may therefore be given in ﬂw&? doses. The belly should be wqi ,mdm;um{;tgdfkmh mustard, or clothes wrung out o wa e ied. 1€ go rlit 1a given In ok i e o o ﬂ’%:%‘i@“;"’l& sy‘} bt i ; Y- J ;?:':s‘:“"3-4:5, L

| High Culture of the Strawberry. i At the rooe;tr Fruit Convention in this d‘“ﬂ says the Practical Farmer, SPhilnﬁelphbia), there was considerable discussion $ to the most| profitable mode of growing trawberries, Lvhether in hills or rows, or in beds. The hill system, and “kti::f off the runners, was spoken of as adapted for small gardens, and amateur caltivators. ne speaker r remarked, that Knox, of ittsburg, grew successfully on this plan on paper, b‘u{":é‘. the time of hia-vioft to is grounds, culture was the only Kind seen. This is the mode vsually: adopted by large growers for market. E, Satterthwait, of Montgomery cotnty, Pa., who brings the finest size and quality of strawberries' to the Philadelphia. market, detailed his practice of setting | out the plants in contiguous rows, an lettin% the runners grow together, so as to make beds about three feet wideé the first season. In the fall he gives a good top-dressing of manure, which acts both as a protective mulch and as a fertilizer. To inquiry of a member; “Does not this promote a large growth of weeds?” ‘he replied, it does; but the heavy increase of crops pays for the labor of eradicating them. He had grown 800 bushels to the acre, which returned in gross/$2,000. ‘He plants every year, the best crop always Being the second season from planting—after which the product annually diminishes ; and it was considered more Pmﬁtable to plant new beds than to retain the ald ones. | We have often seen E Satterthwaite retailing'strawberries rapidly at 50 cents per quart, when within a few feet of him, they were going off slow at 25 cents. The price was owing to the large size and perfect condition. s

| A NARROW escape from a frightful railroad accident occurred about three miles gyest of this city, last Friday night.. The iastward bound night express was a few minutes behind time and was runping at a high rate of speed, when a freight train was digcovered approaching it ‘under a fall head. of steam. The engineers had read Josh Billings and thereby satisfied tgxemsglves that two trains could not pass on one track, and they at once determined to stop before they met. By the -aid of air brakes the passenger train was speedily halted, .and in consequence of the fieight train ‘being on an up grade it was stopped in time to save a smash-up and )t!!ie probable loss of a number of lives, It afpears that two sections of a freight train left Laporte with the intention of* running t¢ Forrester’s switch, but before they made one-half the journey the in-coming passenger irain was met. We understand that the ¢ngines were within a few feet of each other when they were stopped and a collision was thus narrowly averted. The passenger train contained seven cars well filled with trusting human beings, and the man who thus ruthlessly placed ti®ir lives in such imminent peril should, and doubtless will, receive the promt attention of the officers of the road. Somebody wag certainly responsible for etarting the freight trains put in the face of the fact that the passediger train was about due and near at lapd, and it seems that that party is the ponsible cause of what easily might ave been one of the worst railroad accidents the country has ever endured. It is time that such carelessness had ceased and the public will demand the prompt "gengure of such irresponsible employes.— Laporte Argus. 3 .

! Put This and '[hat Together. - As an act of justice we declare that the ridicule and censure being cast upon the new political atitude of Dr. Griffith is without cause and i)urpose. He has the clearest right to feeliand act as he does in this coalition: movement of the Democrsts and dissatisfied Republicans, The Dr. has been very trapk for the last five &’éars in expressing an entire indifference vhether the Republican or Democratic party was successful ; has at times in the ast four years declined to vote, and at thers voted a mixed ticket; and whither e goeth and what be believeth are maters that concern nobody but himself. — Lagrange Standard, ] e . Men are never so desirous to be lct alone as when-they are engaged in.or about to engage in, some disrcputable undertaking. But they cannot and must not expect to be let alone by their fellows Public opinion is the moral pnlice force af the world, and people will never cen-e criticising the conduct of others.—La grange Standard, same date:

, | The late reported difficulties between Germany and France call attention to the fact that Europe is at present little less than a vast camp. No less than six millions of trained men are ready to fly to, "{rm‘s upon that continent.at the call of ‘the bugle, and to set vigorously to work Bt cutting each other’s throats. Even Ttaly, the least exposed of nations, has a “peace establishment” of over half a mililion of men undgr arms. The Germans iare simply all soldiers, with 1,900 pieces ‘of Artillery. France's new army is to ‘include 1,600,000 men and 2,700 ficid ‘guns. England, not to be behind, thinks | half a million of all arms is not too much, | with 1,500 guns. At the present rate of increase, the continent will ‘cantain over eight millions of soldiers in 1880. Ani this is the face of the fact that the lute war is spoken of as the harbinger of upiversal peace. _ . egl

ONE of the live men of Porter countyused to be a Chicago boot black. This same boot black is now a large and powerful man and is sole proprietor of the best coon dog in the county; besides this he owns an immense number of children and is variously estimated to ‘be . worth from 15 to 75 dollars. This is a specimen of what good little boys may do by careful industry and close attention to their business. _ i e e Now mHAT George W.
