The Farm and Household.

. An account is given in the Medicintsche Central Zeitung of the new treatment of cancer which has been brot’ out by Dr. Hasse,of Berlin. His plan is to inject, with a hypodermise syringe, pure, alcohol, to which one per cent. of either is added, not into the ‘new growth, but around its edges, thus obliterating, he claims, the vessels, especially lymphaties, which convey the infection, and causing the atrophy of the growth itself. The pain is said to be rather severe, but is much réduced by ice bags, and lasts only about twe hours. The injec.tions:are repéated every eight or four: teen days, and have no alarming reactions. = Dr. H. claims striking success in ‘corcinomia of the mamma and in .cauliflower excrescence of the uterus, but has failed in epithelium of the lip, which he attributes to the impossibility of obliterating by this means the large and - closely adjacent coronary artery. : :

] Balky Horses. - e -\ The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals puts forth a set of rules for the treatment of balky -ROTSBBS . = .0T i 1. Pat the horse upon the neck; examine the harness carefully, first on one side and then on the other, speaking encoufagingly while doing so; then jumpin the wagon and give the word go; generally he will obey. . 2. A teamster in Maine says he can start the worst balky horse by taking him out of the shafts and making - him go round in a circle till bé is giddy. If the first dance of this sort does - not cure him, a second will. - , 3. To cure a balky horse, simply “place your hand over the -animal’s nose and shut off his wind until he wants to go. : : 4, The brain of a horse seems to entertain but one idea at a time; therefore, confirmed whipping only confirms his stubborn resolve. If you can, by any means, give him‘ new subject to think of, you ,will generally have no trouble in starting him. A simple remedg' is to take a couple of turns of . stout.twine around the fore leg, just below the knee, tight enough for the horse to feel it, and tie in a bow-knot. At the first check he will generally go dancing off, and after_going a short distance you can get -out and remove .the string, to prevent injury to the tendon in your further drive. - ' 5. Takethe tail of the horse between the hind legs, and tie it by a cord- to saddle girth. ; e . 6. Tie a 'string around the 'horse’s ear, close to his:-head. : :

What Shall iiﬁ‘urﬂ:er Raise ?

- What shall the farmer raise is a question that may well be considered. Shall he produce the animals needed in carrying on his farm, the field product for their ‘support, and the: meat, bread, butter, cheese, vegetables and frait for his own table? 'Oris it more ‘profitable to consecrate his efforts upon the production of one or two spec-ialties-and from-the proceeds of these pay others for raising such other articles as he needs in carrying on his own farm, when by a division of labor or of products he:could have raised the most of these himself? We think the former by far the better way and unhesitatingly recommend it. We know by absolute experience that the farmer who has the greatest variety of products to sell, who when he needs an extra horse, has only to go to the pasture, catch and break a colt, who fattens his own beeves and hogs—with now and then -an extra one to sell—who provides his table with fresh mutton from his own (flock, who relishes a chicken, or feasts on fresh eggs, butter, cheese, &c., and all from his own farm, is not only the most independent, but generally the most fore-hand-ed farmer of the neighborhood. As a genetral rule our people make a specialty of wheat and corn—and buy much of their butter, eggs, cheese, and many other articles of daily consumption.. The result is that a failure of one of these crops, or a depression in the price, leaves the farmer without money, without anything by which to raise it, and hence the cry of hard times. . E T :

My idea has ever been thatour farmers should cultivate and raise a greater variety. Havesomething for market every moanth in the year, if not every week, and be -always easy in money ‘matters and we will have no more hard times.—E. @. McCollum, in Laporte Argus.. - . *

Butter-Classifieation—Western Butter. : 4 \ The New York Bulletin gives the ‘report of the committee on the butter trade, in which are the following points ofinterest: The clasgification submitted first classifies butter as eastern and western,and next into extras, firsts, seconds. and thirds of each. - Eastern constitutes the supplies from the Eastern States, and Western isthe product West of New York and. Pennsylvania. This‘is necessitated by the wide differ--ence in the qualities and prices actually existing between theproductions of the Eastern : States and the bulk of those supplied from Western States. This method of grading by extras, firsts, sec- ' onds and thirds is simple, practieal, and not experimental, it having been long in practice in older countries. In regard to the proposition of providing a plan which shall enable sellers of butter of:any description to offer it forsale or for bids at the exchange as ¢alled ' from the list under- the classification your committee regard it as entirely practical and réecommend its adoption. It is believed that it %\gill _greatly facilitate the transactiohségbusiness on a_basis open to both buyers and sellers, “and result in establishing a precise “and accurate list of gquotations and correct market reports. It willenable ‘buyers to purchase or contract at the exchange for any description of butter and thereby check *mischievous speculation in the interior and regulate “this tendency inh New York. Already the healthy movement of the present State crop is checked by these specu“lative purchases;in the interior of the class of butter now classified here as ‘extras. ' Without doubf, under the new system these contracts will be -made here more satisfactorily to all parties, and with less detriment to the _course of trade and the movement of the.etop, =~ = e . Of Western butter axti_vinlg at this market it is estimated that less than - two per cent. is made on the system fo‘ﬁow’e% in the State of New York. ~ln the Western States, as a whole, the herds are comparatively small, mﬁm waters and grazing in many sections impure, The butter is gathered in mnmhnﬂmmm in order w‘mﬁﬁﬂm*ﬁ harac?**‘Wﬁz& I e Y aew%éy R RIY e ;_j::;.—,;w,i:{« g w_..s P v;‘;‘;}&? ”,,— g arafzg,;;:‘[ » s B g sy w‘ng s*w6«:”wu_*~az e e T e S

Forthe Natiosal Banner. . =~ =- = THE ADVANTAGES OF WESTERN ' CENTRAL MICHIGAN. A Most Desirable Locality for Those. ’ ~ Seeking New Homes.. i et '.-,_ H}\B_'l;Q Oceaxa County, Mwn.,}‘ / : Sy - January 7th, 1875, - Mnr. Eprror: Sir;—The idea has suggested itself to my mind that it thight be a matter of interest to yourself and readers to-learn something of ‘this part of the country. And in these days of quarrelsome Indians, Drouths, ‘and the terrible ravages of grasshoppers on the western prairies, it is not to be wondered at that- those seeking new homes are turning their attention to other portions of the ‘country for settlement. The South, just now, is no’t very inviting; for although emigrant -societies there - would like to induce .the investment of Northern capital, yet the ever ready use of murderous weapons in the hands of those there who are inspired by hate and prejudice against northern people, does not make the fornfer land of slavery and rebellion a very pleasant country to settle in, - _ o

- This‘part of Michigan is generally spoken of as Northern Michigan; but this is not corréct, for, in taking the lower -peninsula, ‘even, it will be seen that it is not north of the central line —and by taking into consideration the northern Peninsula, Oceana county is some distance south of the center.

~ The timber and soil in this portion ‘of Michigan is quite diversified. There are the farming districts, and the pine or lumbering districts. The timber in the farming districts is composed principally of maple, beech, elm, cherry, ash, basswood, cedar, and in some «other places oak;, hemlock, birch, etc. Maple and beech predominate on what is termed the hard-wood or farming lands. . Lnever have seen, and I presume no reader of :this has ever seen, in any other place, any lands so thickly studded with hard or sugar maple trees as some portions of this county are. Maple sugar can be made in almost unlimited quantities. In the pine districts, which are interspersed with the hard-wood districts, there are many camps of workmen engaged in cutting and hauling pine logs during the winter season—and labor is thus diversified so that men of industry can find rémunerative employment at all seasons of the year.

e i s CTHE CEIMATE, '- The climate is cooler in summer and warmer in winter here, than in northern Ixi»diana. This may 'seerqz strange to some; ‘but the solution is found in the fact that the large body of water of Lake Michigan does not freeze over in winter:and modifies the temperature of the weather. The cold here rarely reaches zero—two years ago, this. winter being a remalyble exception, the thermometer then #fowing over 20 degrees below zero. lam informed that the cold New. Year of 1864, which all in Indiana remember so well, only showed 7 or 8 degrees below zero here. ‘Any one going from here in winter. to northern Indiana, and other such latitudes, will notice a marked difference in the severity of the weather. The weather is much more uniform in winter here than in your latitude. ' Here people can depend upon sleighing ‘most of the winter: This enables people to accomplish a large amount of lunbering during the winter. ~ Frequently' we have sleighing from the first of December to the first of April. The snow then generally goes off quite rapidly, and the snow is hardly gone before the ground is ready .to’ plow. Rarely is the ground frozen during the winter, and sometimes potatoes are not dug until spring, when they may be taken out in good order. =

{ THE PRICE OF LANDS.

*Owing to the hard times and the fact that we are near an Indian reservation, where the Indians have been selling their lands for what they could get, farms and lands can be bought here now for a very low figure. Wild lands, and some farms can be found here now for from five to ten dollars per acre. More than this, there are some opportunities. (which is not generally known). to-buy some tax-title lands at from seventy-five cents to one dollar an acre. Some of the best farms in this county are based upon such titles, and: I have not heard of any that have been dispossessed. 1 . INTHE FRUIT BELT. - - Peachies from this county received the first premium at the State Fair last Fall, togethér with some other ‘small fruits. It is assumed that this is as good a fruit section as the noted St. Joseph locality. In fact, all along the lake shore to Grand Traverse, one. hundred miles north of us, is. considered within the “fruit belt.” Apples, plums, cherries, peaches, and other fruits, grow in.abundance when properly. cultivated—and the lake gives cheap rates and. ready access to Chicago and Milwaukee, where prices generally rate high. =~ . | | A HEALTHY COUNTRY. \ ~ Outside of a few localities where there are numerous mills and much stagnant water, this may be termed a healthy country. There is much less of the malaria than in Indiana, and now while diphtheria and other epidemics are raging in ‘other sections of the country, this part of the world is very healthy. - There has not been a case of diphtheria within a hundred miles of here thut I have heard of. = . BASY OR ADCESS, = - ?p&on& wﬁhi_i:g":tqr'ehqh this place can leave Fort Wayne in the morning and arrive here the samie evening, and have a chance to stop over two oF three hours at Grand Rapids besides.

} Everything is produced here that is _grown in northern Indiana. It is not ‘aB productive for corn here, but wheat is of a better quality, and perhaps no better potatoes are grown on the globe. ‘Hay is a good crop, and the average -price i 8 about $l5 per ton. The lum‘bering caritps and the ‘villages generally make a home market for all the Vipducexaised, oo ~ If those seeking new homes were

informed of the advantages of this section of the country, there would yvery - naturally a large immigration follow. Grasshopners were never known to troublé here, and no fatality seems to attend “any crop, except the’ potato bug, and he is- easily checkmated by the appliance of Paris Green. If you know ‘of dany _country, Mr. ‘Editor, that has anything like the same number. of advantages and blessings in store for the settler that there are in store for him here, you should advise him thereof—and if you do not know of a part of the public domain which presents as many inducements to the public for settlement as this one, I have no doubt that your readers will thank you for imparting to them the important information. Yours, J. PALMITER: Nana-Sahib, the Buteher. g Nana-Sahib, the butcher of India, has at last been captured by the British after a search.of seventeen years. Many readers will remember of haying in 1857 -read the accounts.of the Sepoy ‘rebéllion, in India, and of the massacre of the small garrison of British' troops stationed at Cawnpore, together with six hundred English women and children, by order of NanaSahib, who, at the head of four regiments of infantry, a battalion of artillery, and a legion of native cavalry, had, after a twenty day’s gallant resistance by the garrison,over-powered it. The relation of the outrages perpetrated on the defenceless women and children, after their husbands and fathers had been butchered, by the Sepoys, even now makes the blood run cold, and it was little to be wondered -at that the British soldiery wreaked vengeance on the unfortunate Sepoys who fell into their hands by blowing them from the gmouths of cannon! The master-spirit of this horrible butchery, however, escaped, and has until lately been a wanderer—hunted, and with a price set on his head. All over Asia he has been tracked by spies, but always eluded . capture, until a strange fatuity led him back to his native province,where his disguise was penetrated by the vigilant and sharpsighted pursuers, and Nana-Sahib, the demon of Cawnpore, was in the hands of ‘avenging justice. Two hundred and twenty women and children, upon whom were perpetrated hideous and nameless outrages, who werethen murdered and %'own into the Well at Cawnpore by*Nana-Sahib’s order, cry aloud for the sternest and ‘most unpitying justice to be meted out to him. ; § ‘

. The Deacon’s Swill-Barrel. . - Just outside of the house stood father, the deacon, tugging away at a big lump of ice in the swill-barrel. . “Bad business, that”, said I, resting my hands on my knees. = | “Not half so bad as it might ’a’ been,” was the reply, as he lifted the cake of ice gut by a stout stick phat had frozen up in the swill. “Many an’ many a bar’l has busted for me that wouldn’t if this knowledge had only come to me, sconer,” said he. : " “You see, when this cold snap came on suddenly, I thought of the swillbar’l away in the night and I said: ‘Well, it can’t be helped now.” It happened, however, that the stick I stir with was left poked down in the swill, and that was all that saved it. A bar’l or a tub, or a.pail, may freeze up solid, and if a stick has been put down in the water the vessel can’t bust.— But it took me a good while to find out—never knew it till last winter, lived seventy years before 1 knew it,” ‘and his eyes twinkled knowingly. “Why, that’s on the same plan,” said I, “of putting a spoon in a glass jar when you are canning {ruit, if you do that the jar won’t break.” “Same philosophy exactly,” said he, as he gave the ball of Ice a kick, and sent it rolling off down the hill.—A47thur’s Home Magazine. s

The Goshen Water Works.

The new water works at Goshen were tested, about two weeks ago, with very satisfactory results: = The Times says: “We now have a system of water works, at a cost of about $9,000, that may be considered a sure protection to the business portion of our city against fire. It promises to be such a success that there is already talk of extending the pipes throughout the city next season; which can be done at a comparatively small expense. Six hose were attached to hydrants within a compass of two squares from the principal mains, and uirder a pressure of 75 pounds to the square inch,water was thrown through these six hose onto the roofs of some of our highest buildings: 'The pipes are warranted to stand a pressure of 150 pounds to the square inch, and for a short time this power was put on, and water was thrown through one hese onto the court house steeple, 150 feet high.” - :

We were pleased to see, not long since,-in one of our .exchanges, some pretty severe remarks addressed to several persons who, during an interesting lecture by Rev. Jno. S. C. Abbott, kept a continuous coughing, which prevented many from hearing. People who cannot refrain from coughing had better stay away from such places, or else take a bottle of Johnson’s Amnodyne Liniment with them. Theimportance of giving Sheridan’s Cavalry Condition powders to, horses that have been out in the cold rain, stood in cold wind, or drank too much cold water cannot be over estimated; no man should be without them who owns a good horse. > 2

SAMEALvonD’s_attention is directed to the ‘following paragraph clipped from the Auburn Courier. Another colum’p of criticism will be in 'order:_ We have the proceedings of several teacher’s institutes, sent to us each week for publication, and they all contain about the same reading. We have given one column of our paper for educational matter, and we cannot spare any more space for these proceedings. But, however, if “the institute,” will have one stereotyped we will try and accommodate them, and by changing the date and secretaries name we think it will answer forall. - . .

* ‘'~ 'The Unruly Member. . ‘“Put abridleon thy tongue.” . - A suit has just been concluded in our court, based upon alleged slanderous utterances by a young lady of this city against the character of another. young lady, also a resident. We do! not purpose reviewing this case, but it calls to mind the fact, and a ‘veryi discreditable fact it is, too, that tattling and backbiting and slanderous utterances by both young and old, are too frequent. The slanderer is found in every community and in every station in life. In the church, on the street, in the parlor and work-shop and office, the moral atmosphere is tainted by the slander’s breath. None bave immunity from its blighting shafts—the old, the young, the fair rosy-cheeked maiden, and the silverhaired matron, alike become victims of the hyenas that gloat over names bedraggled through the slime of the cesspools of their own moral putrefaction. -Of all the petty vices which cling to human kind, that of lying compasses most harm, most unhappi‘ness, most misery. The life of many a fair and pure woman has been blasted by the breath of slander. The character of many a girl has been of? fered up as.a sacrifice to this infernal demon. . Happy homes: destroyed, bright prospects and honorable careers blighted, discord engendered, enmities aroused, and heart-burnings and heartaches induced! These are some of the effects of the eriminal habit of tattling. The thief may take our .goods —these we can replace. But the favir4 fame robbed by the malicious slanderer can never, be restored. How, then, like a thief—how like a more than thief—is -the defamer! “Good name in man and. woman, dear my lord, is the immediate jewel of their souls;” and he or she, who by an expressive shrug of the shoulder, a nod of the head or a word dropped from the venemous tongue, tilches from an human being that “immediate jewel” is a thief in the highest and most criminal sense. Thou shalt not bear false witness is a command to all humanity. No- one who disregards it comes up to the ehristian standard. Therefore, for the soul’s sake, we urge the young especially—and it will do a few old covies of both sexes no harm to follow the advice —to curb the inclination to tattle. - White lies, black lies, and lies of all other shades were better unsaid.— “Put a bridle on thy tongue.”—Bartholomen County Democrat. |

Suffrage and Tax Receipts. ° To the Editor of the Tipton Times: 2 I noticed in a late issue of the Zémes, that some one §poke of the propriety of having a law, requiring ,voters to present a tax reeeipt at the polls.— The plan was spoKen .of as * “novel and original.” 1 wouldsay thatl was a citizen for some years of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and every voter had to produce his tax receipt before depositing his vote. It had a most excellent effect. None but bona fide -citizens voted. It saved the expense of a tax collector, and the publication of the ']'ong"‘delin((lluent' tax list,” and besides it saved a largé amount of money to the county.— Whether it is the law in that State vet, I am not able to say, but I remember it gave universal satisfaetion to all good citizens. Itis true that it may be said that it is a property qualification, but why should-one help to administer a government and yet not support that government? Asitnow is, tax receipt is utterly useless. But the method suggested, gives it the highest practical value. If the State of Indiana had such a law, and enforce it, it would purify the ballot box and save annually a large sum of money, and enable her todispense with a large part of her collection machinery.
