- s The Farm and Household. " CONDUCTED BY JONATHAN SIMMONS, Do Not PAIL to attend the agric;‘ltural meeting in the Town Hall next Saturday “afternoon. : : ‘ SAVE THE STUMPS.— It is stated that seventeen old walnut stumps were sold near Liberty Mills, Floyd county, for $BOO. They are valuable for veneerings, and the more guarled the better. ~ CreaNiNG Woop.—There is nothing better for cleaning painted woodwork - than a piece of common India rubber.— Rub the wood as if you were erasing pencil marks, and then pass a dry brush over it. No water is necessary. ;

A UseruL ARTICLE.—Borax is a nseful article to have about. A half pound of it will drive the cockroaches out of any house. A large handful ot the powder to ten gallons of water will effect a saving ot fifty per cent of soap. Itisan excellent dentrifice, and the best material for cleapsing thescalp. ~ ' DEsTRUCTION OF INSECTS IIN POULTRY HOUSES,— Fumigating = poultry-houses with sulphur, thrown on glowing coals in an earthen vessel, and keeping the house closed for several bours, is said to be a perfect remedy for insects of all kinds. The poultry must of course be removed before the experiment. Pure WATER For Cows —The experience of cheese factories pr.ves that to the stagnant and impure water which farmers often compel their cows to drink more than to any other cause.is to be attributed the difficulty in turning out a first quality of cheese. The statement is still more strongly applicable to the making of butter. |

Dairy Cows.—Mr. Harris Lewis, of Herkimer, says hé has some cows which bave yielded 700 pounds of cheese in a season, while others in the samme herd did not produce more than 200 pounds. His choice of breed is decidedly iu ‘favor of ~the short-horn. Cows should be milked quietly, quickly and clean, and at exact and regular intervals.. |

ARRESTING DECAY oF PoOTATOES — Prof. Church of Cirencester, the eminent agricultural chetnista,.announces that sulphite of lime appears to exercise a very remarkable influence in arresting . the spread of decay in potatoes affected by the potato disease. In‘ one experiment the salt was dusted over some tubers, par tially decayed from this cause, as they were being stowed away. Some months afterward the potatoes. were found to have suffered no further injury. A sim ilar trial with powdered lime proved to be much less effective. .

PorTABLE: DrRY INK.—At a recent meeting of the Polytechnic Association, Professor Boettget exhibited a novel kind of ink, which is admirably adapted to take on journeys and exploring expeditions, . White blotting paper is saturated with aniline black, and several sheets are pasted to form a thin pad. When wanted for use, a small piece is torn off and covered with a little water. The black liquid which dissolves out ie a good writing ink. A equare‘inch ot.the paper will give euough ink to lq.ét- for . considerable wrting, and a few pads would be all that an exploring party need carry with them. Ag water is always available, the ink is readily made. <

To CLEAN SILVER.—Dr. Elsner says that hot water poured off potato parings or boiled potatoes is admirably adapted to clean silver. The objects can be easily rubbed by the fingers with the settlings of potato” meal, and they become as bright as they usually do when rubbed with tripoli. . The process is particularly advantageous for engraved and raised objects, where the powder is liable to collect in the cavities. German silver and plat~ ed ware can be cleaned in the same way. Potato water which has become sour by Jong standing can be substituted for acids to clean copper vessels. |

IMPROVED DRAWING INK.—The addition of one part of carbolic acid to 80 parts of the fluid India ink, while it does not impair its fluidity, causes it to dry ~ rapidly even in heavy lines, so that they can be varnished over. The proper amount of carbolic acid to be added in any case may be ascertained by adding drop by drop the ordinary apothecary’s solution of it in alcohol until- varnishing does not affect the definition of a test line by causing it to run. The additon of too i much carbolic acid is indicated by the transparency of the line and the inability to draw fine lines, a condition easily remedied by the addition of more of t e ‘fluid ink, b .

"NEw UsEs o HYDRATE oF CHLORAL. —The hydrate of chloral, which is now made on a large scale, has been found to be useful for other purposes than the original one of a nypnotic. It issaid to be an excellent antiseptic; it stops fer mentation and destroys germs that would be likely to develop in organic substances. One per cent. of hydrate of chloral will prevent the decompaosition of glue and albumen for a great length of time. Another use of hydrate of chloral isas a re-~ |duciog agent. It is sdaid to precipitate metals from solutions, and this property suggests its poseible application in photograpby and for depositing metals. Carbolic Acid in Poultry louse.-'. | The Lendon Field strongly recommends \ the use of carbolic acid for destroying insects in pigeon and poultry houses, asserting that it neither injures the birds nor tends to drive them from their nests. He uses it in the form of a solution of two ounces of common carbolic acid to three quarts of water, applying this once a week -through the aid of a watering pot, - after the house has been carfully swept out. Besides the lice and acari that it destroys, it is also efficient in driviog out fleas — For the Fnrpose of expellintg lice from the bodies o gigeons;’ the preferred method is said to be to mix one part of Calvert’s liquid carbolic acid with thirty parts of water, first mixing the acid with a very little glycerine, adding the water and ' shaking well béfore use. This is to be 1 applied with a small brush to the roots of the feathers about the lower part of the belly und around the vent, where the eatest number of insects will always be gnd.- This op‘)liation leaves no stain, kills the vermin instantaneously wherever it touches them, and two or three applica tions, at intervals of a few days, are suffi - cient to make the foulest specimen thorS rotris st Bhacs,siao esa O s carbolic acid disinfecting powder, dustiog it often over the bodies of even the young bitds, without injury to them, manith equally good results. o

‘Farming, . Farming is, without doubt, the surest occupation there 1. Farmers may not grow rich, but they always manage to get a living for themselves and family, which is more than' can be said of any other pursuit, They may grow rich in this as in any other pursuit, according to the de: gree of intelligence and industry brought to bear. If you desire to see the success of your children rendered safe in life, educate them to the farm. But this word educate has a deep signification here; it is the want of this that makes farm life, generally, 8o dull, and the attainment of great wealth, by farming, so rare. There 18 no occupation of life that will repay intelligent thought and study better than agriculture will, and it is because intelli gence has so little to do with the general farming operations that it is so unattractive to young men, and leads them to forsake it for the professions or other intellectual pursuits. Induce your children to take an early interest in the farm, in their implements and in their stock. Tell them all your plans, and the history of your success and failures; tell them your own history as a boy, but don't harp too much on the degenerate character of the young men of the present age. Praise thhlem when you can, and encourage them to do still better. Give each one a calf or a colt to raise, or small patch of grain to cultivate on his ewn account, But above all, let them study chemistry and the laws of breeding in stock, Light your homes brilliantly, in the evening, with kerosene, and provide pleasant, agreeable reading ; encourage your neighbors to drop in, and talk agriculiurev-the importance of large crops, good stock, literal feeding, Jjudicious crosses, the advantage of keeping animals comfortable, judicious rotation of crops, the chemical proprieties of manure, etc., rather than grumble about { hard times and the price ot wages. In this way you can make farming an-intel. lectual pursuit; and whatever has intelligence in it will be attractive —Z. '

: Horticultural Hints.. ; 1. When fruit trees occupy the ground, nothing else should—except very short grass. ; . 2. Fruitfulness and growth of the tree cannot be expected the same year. . 8. There is no plum that the curculiq will not tackle, though any kind may gometimes escape for. obe year in oneplace. 4, Peach borers will not do much dam age when stiff clay is heaped up around the tree a foot high, 5. DPear blight still puzzles the greatest men. The best remedy known isto plant two for every one that dies. 6. If you don’t know how to prune, don’t hirea man from the other side of the seathat knows less than you do. ' 7. Don'tcut off a lower limb, unless you are a renter and don’t care what becomes of the tree when your time is out. ‘B. A tree with the limbs coming out near the ground is worth two trees trimmed up five feet, and is worth four trees trimmed up ten feet, and so on till they are not worth anything. 9. Trim down, notup. 8 10. Shorten in. not lengthen up., 11. If you bad an arm cut off, you would feel it at-your heart—a tree will not feel, but rot to the heart. :

Farm Implements and Machinery. Within the past thirty years there h.s been a great improvement in the construetion of farm implements and machinery. New machines have been invented, 21l farm implements greatly improved, and there is now no excuse for farmers to be without a good set ot tols and all necessary machinery with which to conduct their business. But farmers, as a ‘class, are very slow to avail themselves of the aid afforded by machinery, and here may be found the one reason tor their want of success. The manufacturer who should have all his work done by hand, would at once fall far behind one who used improved machinery, he could not compete with bim even for a single month. In a less degree, the same is true of the farmer. It is only the man who seizes upon all aids afforded by machinery, and placed within his reach, that can stand high and find the greatest amount of pleasure ard profit in his department ot labor. Machinery costs something to be sure but its use enables the farmer to perform his work easier and bétter, and either saves the employment of much hired help, or enable, him to conduct a much larger business. But. it is not only important to have machinery, but also to get the best in the market. There are so many different patterns of all kinds of machines, that it is often difficult to tell which will give the best satisfaction. Tt will pay to inquire of farmers whc have used machines, how they like them, and also to examine their work. On no account, buy what you do not have good reason to be lieve is a first rate machine, even though you can buy it cheap. Get those machines, and only those which are likely not only to do the work well, butalso to prove durable, - If you need any machines 'this season, we should advise you to buy ‘as soon as you find a pattern that suits you, and that bas a good reputation. If you do this you will be sure of having your machines when you want to use them, while if you wait to find out which is the successtul competitor, you will fail to - get ‘one in time. : ' Next in importance $o obtaining good implements comes the- proper care of them, - We know farmers who let their plows, wagons, horse rakes and mowing machines stand out doors all winter.— This not only looks slovenly, but is decidedly unprofitable. A wagcn or machipe is not injured as much by decent use in three years as standing out in the storms of one winter. All tools should be repaired as soon as they get out of or‘der.— Cor. Ohia 'Farmer. : i

Save thq Sugar Trees, By all means let our maple forests escape the invasion of that dire energy and cupidity which are so rapidly and reck. lessly diminishing our lovely hills and valleys of their primative grandeur and luxurance. The maple grove, once destroyed, cannot easily be replaced. Its production is the slow, lingering work of time ; and it bebooves the woodman to remember this important fact when he puts hisax tolts root. The perpetuity of the delicious luxury obtained from' the sugar maple is not the only incentive to the preservation of that tree. In a pictorial sense alone, with its wealth of un+ parallelled greenness and verdure in sum. wer, and its marvelous mosaic of leafy glory in autumn, it is worthy of woodland immortality.— Zz.

Tax Illinois farmers are complaining loudly of the low prices of grain und the heavy railroad charges. A correspondent of the Chicago 7'mes, writing from Hen ry county, says the farwmers there are com pelled to sell their corn for twenty cents a bushel. This, it is asserted, docs not pay the expenses of cultivation, Written expressly for the Banaer. ) A Cure for Love. . 5 Take two ounces of dislike, one pound of resolution, two ounces of the powder of experience and a large sprig of time, one drachm of the quiet of dishonor, one quart of the cooling waters of consideration, set them over a gentle fire of love, sweeten it with the sugar of forgetfulness, skim it with the spoon of melancholy, put it in the bottom of your heart, cork it with the cork of a sound conscience and there let it remain, The pain ‘gilljlﬁ%ﬁy ceage and you will be restored to your right senses again. B ; N.'B.—These things are to be had in. the apothecary shop at the !of Ut derstanding, next door to Reason, Prudent’ street, which is in fhe Parish of Contente : A H

An Imposition. - The Logansport Pharos speaks plainly of an imposition that has long been prac - ticed'on the publishers of country newspa. pers, asfollows: .~ " ; The practice of sending a long pream--ble and series of meaniug%ess “resolutions of respect” to the publisher of a newspaper is becoming obsolete. It has been abandoned in the large cities, and but a few of the smalier eities still practice the imposition—we use the term because no other word will corvey our meaning. A member of four or five organizations dies and each organization sends in a quarter of a column to be published. The old, sterotyped preamble and resolutions bave been adopted, and the spirit of the whole might be embodied in ten lines. Here is a column of matter which the publie do not read. They glance at the heading and the name of deceased. Theresolu - tions are familiar, It is useless to spend time in reading what they have already committed to memory. Nor are these the only instances in which the public and the press are imposed on by these long -obituary notices. A member of some regular organization dies and though the deceased is know only to one in-twenty of our readers, the pastor decms it his duty to write & half column obituary, giving a complete history of the deceased. The birthplace, wanderings, grand-fathet’s; name; religious belief, occupation,number of children, brothers, sisters, and intimate friends, are all set forth, and is made the occasion for a poorly writen, verbose and unintelligible sermon. We do not cen - sure the pastor, for he, doubtless, dreams that he is in the service of the Divine Master, and writing long obituaries is in the direct line of his duty; but we.do cen sure the theological institutions at which these -long winded | persons graduate.— Their educdtion in regard to obituaries is sadly neglected. : e

! About Newspaper Borrowers. | We haveamaninour midst who thinks the county papers don’'t amount ito “sbucks.” He is not a subscriber to either of them, but he manages to purloin them from some store when the proprie—tor is engaged with a customer.'

Every community hasaclass that “takesin” their information by absorption from somebody else’s store house. We don’t think it is any worse to steal mental than physical food. The law provides for the punishment of the latter, but no legislature ever anticipated that- men would get mean enongh for the former.— Keniland Gazetle. ’ : A certain number of scalawags and “dead beats” are necessary in every well regulated community as living examples of the degradation to which mankind is liable to descend. We know of no lower stage for a healthy, robust man to arrive at, than to feast his depleted intellect upon a borrowed newspaper.— Winamac Democrat. fe s

il Printers’ Fees. - LFrom the Anderson Herald.] To those editors who are inclined to censure the Legislature for legislating regarding printers’ fees for legal advertising, we want tc say that such censure is without cause. Under the new law the price allowed for puablishing €be delins quent tax list is fifty cents for ecach descriptiop and the publisher’s regular advertising rates for the headings and footings. On averaged sized lists that is a better price than obtained under the old law. In regard to othier legal advertis ing, which is included in the act regulating fees of officers, all " legal advertisipg rates are established as tollows: For first insertion each square of 250 “ems” nonpareil, $1.25 ; edch ' additional - insertion per square 75 cents. ' These rates as established by law, are better than the rates of one half the country papers of the State. ° i Xendallville Business-Items. —Dried Blackberries, pitted Cherries, at.Groh & Iligh’s. ; ‘ To*gy --Fish in large and small quanjities at Groh & High’s. : oy —Groh & High want a 16t of peach blow and ear1y rose potatoes. *47 —Groh/& High are paying cash for all kinds o farmer®produce, : : *q7 - If you want any stone-ware, crockery, ete , call at Groh & High'’s, , *47 —Groh & High are selling Silver Drips in five’ gallon kegs, very cheap. *47 —The best tobacco, for the least money, corner of Rush and Main streets. : AT —The only cash grocery store in town is at the corner of Rush and Main streets, *47 —Trunks, Valises, Caﬁpet-saqks, ete., etc. at the Clothing Emporium of Engle & Co. *47 —Farmers, for salting butter, use Ashton’s salt; the place to get it pure is at Groh & High’s. *47 —Now is the time to buy your garden seeds, before the assortment is broken, at Groh & High’s, - —Ten pounds of dried peaches for §l. at the corner of Rush and Main streets, Ringle’s old stand. —lt is an admitted fact on all hands by all persons whe have been and examined or tested bly actual experience that Engel & Co.’s splendid clothing can not be equaled for style, excellence of quality or economy of prices by any in the city.

By ‘an immense pradtice, extending through a period of years, having within that time: treated many thousand cases of thosc diseases peculiar to woman, T have been enabled to perfect a most potent and agreeable medicine that meetsthe indications presented by that class of dizeases with positive certainty and exgetness. - To designate this natl{ma\r?swcciﬁc compound, I have named it ! { ’ ’ » . » Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription.

The NarioNAL BaxNer, in the future; as in the past, will be the exponent of what it conceives to be correct principles. - It is independent, fearless and free in pohtics, and will expose corruption and fraud under whatever party name it ‘may be found, believing thatithe true mission of the press is the promotion of the best interests of the massés of the people, to whom alone; every honest journal loekt for countenance and support. We shall labor, therefore, to serve the general welfare, in defiauce of the opposition of cliques and rings of all parties. : Lo ¢ Opposed, as we are, to a reign of oppression, tyranny, corruption, crime, vena)it}-‘, fraud and theft, we have cast our lot with the Democratic Liberal organization, and shall support its nominees- County, State-and National ;'believing that, in no other way, can the purity of the ballot-box be maintained, public and private confidence restored, the weight of taxation removed, and peace and quiet restored between all sections. As we think, the people have now undertaken to control their own affuirs, and we propose to aid them in the discharge of that Jaudable undertaking, looking forward to that era of fraternal feeling which must necessarily result from every combination in which the masses propose to untrammel themselves from party domination and usurpation. .

LOCAIL AFFAIRS We make no high sounding brags about an immense circulation that we do not possess, unor do we propose to entice people to our support by means of ‘‘ premiums’’ or any other hypocritical inducements. ‘We want the BAxNER to pass for what it is worth, on a fair and square business basis, and we expect to charge for it a regular newspaper rate. As a faithful chronicler of locdl matters the Baxner will occupy, as it always has done, a front seat.— Its recitals will be fair, hocest and just. Our columns are open and free to everybody' for the disputation of all subjects of interest to the people generally.

Such Diseases are caused by Vitiatedßlood, which is generally produced by derangement of the -Digestive-Organs. . .

Says a distinguished physiologist: There is scarcely an individualon the face of the carth whose body is exempt{rom the presence of worms. It is notupon the healthy elements of tlie body that wesms exist,but upon the discased humors and slimy deposits that breed these living -monsters of -clisense. No systém of medicine, no vermifuges, ‘no -gnthelminitics, Will frec the system from ° worms like these Bittera, & ; . Mechanical Diseasecs.—Persons-éngaged sin Paints and Minerals, stch as Plumbers, Typesetters, - Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advancein life, are subjcct to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard against thisy take a dose of WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS tWwice o week, < 'Bilious, Remittent, and Intermit- ‘ tent Fevers, which are so prevalent in (hevalleysof our great rivers throuzhout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio; - Missouri, Illinois, Tennéssee, Cumberland,’ Arkansas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pear], Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Roanoke, - James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our ‘entire country during “4the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so ; g seasons of unusual heat and dryness, are i riably accompanied by ektensive derangicments of the stomach and liver, and other ab-, dominal viseera. In their treatment, a purga--tive, .exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. There ig‘no cathartic for the purpose egual to DR. J. WALKER’S .VINEGAR BITTERS, a 3 they. will ~ speedily remove the dark-colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimpmiating the secretions of the liver, and . generally restoring the healthy functions of the é‘ligesuve organs. - : e £ ‘Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White Swell“4ings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations; Indolent-Inflamma-tions, Mdrcurial Affections, Old Seores, Erup".tions of the Skin, Sore Eyes, etc., etc. In these asin all other constitutional biseases, WALKER'S " VINEGAR BITTERS have shown their great curative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases.. - : i Dr. Walkerx!’s California Vinegar .Bitters action all these cases in a shwilar .manner. By purifying the Blood they remove the cause, and by resolving away the etlects of the inflammation (the tubercular deposits) the affected parts receive health, and a perinanent - _cure is etfected. . “The properties of DR. WALKER'S VINEGAR = BITTERS are Aperient, Diaphoretie, Carmin_ative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic,: Seda‘tive, . Counter-Irritant, Sudorific, Alterhtive, and-Anti-Bilious. o The Aperient and mild Laxative proper“ties of DR. WALKER’'S VINEGAR BITTERS are . the best safe-guard in cases of eruptions and . malignant fevers, their balsamic, healing, and soothing properties protect the humors of-the fauces. Their Sedative properties allay pain in the nervous system, stomach, and bowels, either from inflimmation, wind, colic, cramps, ete. .. Fortify the body against disease by" ‘purifying all its fluids with VINEGAR BITTERS. -No epidemic can take hold of a system thus . Tore-armed. . Directions.—Take of the Bitters on going--'to bed at night from a half to one and oné-half wine-glassfull. Eat good nourishing food, such as beef-steak, mutton chop, venison, roast beef, --and vegetables, and take out-door, exercise. ~‘They are. composed of purely vegetable ingre-. - dients, and ¢ontain no spirit. ; R.
