The Farm and Household.

A LARGE FARM.—Mr, Geo. Grant, of Victoria Colony, Kan., is the owner’of the largest farm in the ;world, with the single exception, perhaps, of that of the Duke of Sutherland, whose broad acres consist largely of hill and heather. ' According to the Bt. Louis R.?;(lhn, Mr, Grant’s domain covers 576,000 acres in theheart of Kansadz,abqut 200 miles west of Kansas City to Fort Hays, the center of the tract. | His effort is to establish_a ‘model farm, for whicli. great credit is due him, as well as for his successful efforts in introducing ‘imported stock, and showing the result of crossing impo with native stock, and also, the best methods of sheltering and feeding cattle in winter. . Mr. Grant is going back to Europe to arrange for ‘the bringing out of more- people and a large portion: of high-bred stock, which he will exhibit at the.Centen-’ nial, with the Intention ultimately of ‘shipping.it tq Vietoria.. - Mr. Grant states that one herd of eighty-one shiort-horns of the Booth strain sold at the sale of the late Mr. Torr’s property in England at an ayerage price from young to old of $3,000. ‘They were of the same family that he hds at Victoria, and many of‘the animals wer€ bought for America. - Mr. Grant’s colony hasldrgely swelled this-season by i‘mﬁmigrants, and ‘another English company. has just bought' 40,000 geres ~adjoining the Victoria ‘colopy. ~One of the New York Gunthers has started with 5,000 aeres, and Mr. Dickin'son, of St. Louis, has hought two square miles, and is out ‘there now makitig arrangements for putting up a houfe. Mr. Grant says he is more than satisfied with the produce of his cropsﬁ”this season. The’ rains have ‘been :i'xbund;\nt,»:but last year the grasshoppers swept everything. One field of eighty acres of Hungarian grass on his farm has produced 770 tons of fodder and 5,114 hushels of seed,giv‘ing a profit of moye than 500 per cent. on the cost of putting in the seed. ITe ‘put ini three hundred.-acres of alfalta, a kind of fodder /much used in California. The:lahd will grow:three crops of this. grass in a year, at the rate of six.tons to the acre, but it affects a deep, dry soil. ~ Mr. Grant has inereased ‘his flock of sheep to 16,000, and has 1,000 cows. ’l‘u' less than five years hie expects to in¢rease his sheep ‘to 100,000. His wool alone this season brought $11,700 in Boston, at 33 cents per pound. Sheep raising is evidently destined fo be a profitable business in Kansas, |+ . | i

To FATTEN A Horse.—There are sundry condition powders and tonics which are often fed to horses and produce an increase of flegh; but they. must be kept up or the horse will run down, and in the end ‘they will do injury: Regular feeding, faithful grooming, chang® of diet, salt always accessible, exercise, even if it be hard work, with sufficient rest, pure. water, pure air in the stable, and comfort with quiet will .cause- almost any horse properly fed to lay on flesh, if not to become fat. A writer in an exchange paper says truly that many good Horses devour large quantities of grain and hay, and still continue thin and poor. The food eaten is not properly. assimilated. If the'usual feedl had been unground grain and hay, nothing but a change will affect a desirable alteration in the appearance of the animal. In case oil meal cannot be obtained -readily, mingle & bushel of flax seed ‘with a bushel of barley, and one of oats, and let it be ground into fine ‘meal. This will be a fair proportion for his feed. Or, the mea] of barley, oats and corn, in equal quantities, may befirst procured and one-fourth part of the oil cake mingled with it, when the meal is sprinkled on cut feed: Feed two or thee quarts of the mixture three times daily, mingled with a peck of cuf hay and straw, If the horse will eat that amount greedily, let the ‘amount ‘be gradually increased until he will eat four or six quarts at every feeding, fhiree times a day. So long ‘as the animal will eat this allowance the quantity may be increased a little every day. -But avoid the practice of allowing a ‘horse to stand-at a rack well filled with hay. In order to fatten a horse that has run down in flesh, ‘the groom should be particular to feed the animal no more than he will eat up clean and lick the manger for more.

-HAY RACKs.—There are almost as .many different kinds of racks for feeding hay, straw, etc., as there are farms. Nearly/every individual has his own - opinion about what he wants, and constructs accordingly.. Not long since, , says the Journal of Agriculture, we passed by a large farm and noticed: the cattle helping themselves from the stacks and ricks. In conversation “with the proprietor he told us that he had tried many different kinds of racks, and none of them had 'given satisfaction, Some ffzérmers'.feed their hay in rail pens, some on brush piles; -and a very great many scatter it out’ - upon the ground.” , We suppose it is: . safe to say that oné-third of the hay raised and fed is anhually wasted. We noticed last winter a cheap and easily-constructed rack, and are satisfied that it will come into general tise _and give entire satisfaction. While - this rack may be in use in some localities, we are satisfied that in many -places it has not been adopted. Take six posts, eight feet ldng, six inches in diameter, and set them in the ground so as.to form a parallelogram 4x132 feet. Gommence three feet from -the ground and nail plank to the posts : horizontally, until the tops are reach- | - ed. . This structure forms the inner ~ side of the rack; the outer side of the - wall is Bxl6 feet. | Posts can be used _ for the inner pen, or a pen can be . built of poles or logs. The outer post 18 two feet and six inches high. This fM;hon completes the best rack - for out-door feeding of hay that we hgve ever noticed.... . Grain is hest fed ~ tosheep in troughs, made by nailing V. Sheep, to o their best in winter, zﬁv‘f@ w w’ - m m’ g *»‘“ﬁ%%i‘wé g oy YRy A ing Temeay lor

fever and ague. For some years past this disease has been 8o prevalent in the region that the Communists seriously sﬁhoug'ht ‘of abandoning their property and flourishing business in that place. But the idea was suggested of trying'a heated stove in a small room, including a profuse perspiration, followed by a shampooing ahd thorough cleansing of the body, with both warm and cold water; and these simple means were fofind to be a thorough and efféctive remedy. Not only the Communists themselves ‘but the people of the entiré region round about have resorted to the remedy, and have been thoroughly cured. It is worth trying. - - e

. - Ship Canal. | - £ The ' project of a ship dana] across this State from Lake Michigan to the waters of Liake Erie is being considerably talked about just now, and the merits_ of - various routes: discussed. ‘A ship canal, was amongijithe early projects of internal imprgvement in this State, and surveys and estimates were ot only made, but a ¢onsiderable amgunt of work was done -upon the Clinton and Kalamazoo 'canal. The eastern terminus of this project was on Lake St. Clair at the mouth of Clinton river, and the western at Allegan, the head of navigation of, the Kalamazoo river. ‘Thirty" miles of this canal were actually made, and were used for some years. It was a State work, and like the ofher internal improvement projects of the: State at that time—the Southern, Central and Northern Railroads—proved too muech for its financial abllity, and had to be given up. It was claimed to have been demonstrated at the time by actual surveys that the work was practicable. . b : These routes are now talked of—the route-of the original Clinton and Kalamazoo Canal, from-the mouth of the Kalamazoo river on Lake Michigan to the mouth of Clinton river on liake St. Clair. A route from the nrouth of thie St. ‘Joseph river which shall utilize the Valley of the Paw Paw river, passing through Van Buren County, and on that range east, and a-route starting from the same point which shall use the Valley of’ the St. Joseph river to its head waters and thence east'to Toledo. The practicability of these two last mentioned routes has not been demonstrated by surveys, but would doubtless be -found as favorable at least as that of the Clinton and Kalamazuvuo route. The: St. Joseph river. was originally navigable for a much greater distance than the other streams which are proposed to be used, 'and the route is the most direct Letween the East and ,West by probably two hunndred miles. It is proposed that this enterprise shall "be undertaken by the General Government, because of its' National importance. = Its magnitude is such that the expense could not otherwise well be bornei—Michigan Exchange.

Probably the Oldest Couple in the . . S World., Dr. Wilkins, of Fairmount, recently visited a- man and woman in Montgomery county, Indiana, whose ages are respectively 113 and 111 years, and who have lived together in. the married state 85 years. :The name of this ancient couple is Fruits, and they dre the parents of Mrs, Thomag Williams, of Catlin - township. ~ The” old man stands up as straight as aramiod, and does a good deal of work every day. He has always been a moderate liver, and uses no_tobacco, which is-an argument against tobaceo users.: But his wife has been a.steady smoker 60 years, which is an argument in favor of tobacco.. The-old lady is afflicted with a cancer, which madeits appearance>upon he{;‘ forehead 40 yedrs ago, and which she iscnow doctoring with coal oil. *At one time in her life she weighed 225 pounds, but gradually shrank away until she now tips the beam at 125. The venerable old man was personally acquainted withh Daniel Booné, Simon Gerty, Simon I{!enton, Williams and others of the first .settlers of the West.—Danwville (I1l.) T'imes

=’ The Maintenance of Health. The maintenance of health'is often more difficult than its recovery. | Vitiated conditions of the atmosphere, unhealthy occupations; extremés’ of heat or cold, and constant exposure to rough weather, aré all so many provocations of disease. -There 1s but one sure. way of efféctually. guarding the system when thus subjected to Influences. prejudicial to. health, and that is to establish, by judicious tonic and alterative medication; vigor of the body and regularity of its functions. The properties vf an invigorant and ¢orrective are hauppily combined in Hostetter’s Stomaeh Bitters, which, at the same .time that it infuses unwonted vitality inte the system, overcomes all tendency of, the stomach, liver, bowels and urinary organs to deviate from regularity in the ' discharge of functions upon which the welfare of the entire physical organization fis depéndent.

. Wiid Hogs in Cajifornia. The amusement of hunting wild hogs in Kern Counpy, California, is thus sketched by the Bakersfield Gazette of November 20: There is a district of country lying west of Bakersfield and about twenty-five miles distant which is the source of mnech exciting sport. It is a low tule land stretching across the country a distance of fitty miles and averaging from four to seven miles in width. As far back as fifteen years ago the hogs of the settlers began to stray away into these tules and run wild. ‘This has been going on ever since, and they have bred uritil they are now found to be very numerous and in a perfectly wild state. They are of all ages. from sucking pigs fo venerable old patriarchs of perliaps a dozen years, and weighing from a few pounds to six and seven hundred weight. Of late years people began to hunt them, and it has grown guite a business. Parties of two and threé go down there with their wagons,on which aré covered pens, and stay two. or three days. They carry their guns and six shootters, and some use lassoes. The Hunting is done with dogs., Having struck a trail the dogs follow it up,and bring the game to bay, when the old males frequently assume the offensive and’ fight with desperation and sometimes with terrific effect. The huntsmen are always on horseback, #nd, the game being flushed, generaily use their revolversito- bring it down.— Some they capture with ‘dogs and bring away alive, and-sometimes tliey ate lassoed and thus secured: With the large hogs which the dogs cannot manage harsher means are used and they are shof down with six-shooters. Some, parties have in this way sometimes 'sequred as high as twenty-five hogs in a day and a dozen is not -an unusual ecateh. It is impossible to estimate correctly the number of hogs running’ wild ovier this vast district of country. There must: be: several thousand ‘of them and they are increasing rapidly every year. Of course some,of them are very old.’ A male was killed some time ago which had a tusk eleven inghes in length. It had turned like a ram’s horn and .grown through the cheek backinto the mouth. 'Phey sametimes have tefribile combats with the dogs and not: unfrequently inflict frightful wounds upon them, and,which oceasionally result in death. It is found impracticable to hunt these hogs successfully, except in alternate years. The tules miust be burned and thiis cannot be done well until they have been allowed to grow for two years. The Imnti-ng.seasoh commences inOctober and continues until about the first of March. | It is in full blast now, parties going down there every week. . Sl

.. What One Sy Did. .+ (Froin the Chicago Tribune.) T Much have been said in history, song and- sermon of the “providential” arrival of the Monitor in time to meet and disable the Merrimac off Fortress Monroe. It was hailed at the time-as a special Providence, and has often been claimed as such since. But time, which ULuriés so many things, brings others. to light, and has now revealed the fact:that not -accident, but design, got the “chesse-box on a raft” to Fortress Monroe in time to, drive the Merrimac back to Norfolk Navy-yard. : -General Wool was in command of the Fortress then, and had as his Aide-de-Camp Colonel L. G. B:Cannon, of Vermont, who has just.publishéd a small pamphlet embodying his “recollections” of the famous duel which revolutionized the navies of the world. e says that a loyal man employed-as a mechanic in the Norfolk Navy-yard sent General Wool word of the work on the Merrimae in December, 1861, and forwarded him full details of the Confederate plan two months afterward, just three ‘weeks before the iron ram played havoc with the wooden walls of Congress and the Cumberland. Capnon went to Washington, with the first news. - Stanton was sick, and Lincoln took the Colonel to a Cabinet meeting. The result was that work was pushed with all speed on the Monitor._lf the spy had not served his country so well the "Merrimac would have broken up the blockade off Norfolk, and ‘might then have cruised down the coast, destroying one squadron after another, and practically raising the blockade of the whole coast. It has heen stated that this was the plan, and that a fleet of Clyde-built ships, laden with arms, ammunition, clothing and steres, was waiting at West India ports to seize their ‘chance of safely landing their war material. It ts difficult to overestimate the possible damage this one ram might have done if she had not been stopped after one day’s sweeping victory. -The Caongress and the Cumberland were two of the finest vessels in our Navy. If they were so utterly helpless before the Merrimae, what could smaller ships have done? After raising the' blockade, the Merrimac might have steamed into New York Bay and had the metropolis of the New World at its mercy. It would have taken a long while to have built, launched and equipped the' Monitor if she had then existed only in the brain of Ericsson, and ‘even if her framework had only been placed upon the stocks, as would have been the case but for this ene loyal spy. He must have run no slight risk, but hissinformation was of the highest value. :

Election Prognostications. ; (From the Indianapolis News,) ; Pennsylvania having changed the time of holding Lier State election until November, the claim “as: goes Pennsylvania so goes the Union,” has passed away. It has been for some years little more than a claim, the seat of power having passed westward. But the Ohio people seem to feel it to be their duty to take up the discarded mantle, and Wwe are being informed and warned almost daily that "a%lgoes Ohio so goes the Union.” When the prineipal States, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, voted in advance of the others, the result of their ‘elections had a great, if not a paramount influence upon the general one.. Ohio and Indiana are yow left, and perhaps their voting one way or the other might insure the success of the ticket, but if they are divided, as is not im_probable, the general result wouldnot be affecteg, unless, indeed the majority in one should be very small and in the ‘other very large. If the three had rémained any two might decide an election, but no single one can do it. So it can be said just as truthfully that “as goes Indiana so goes-the Union.” - The fact is, however, that this. country. is too big and the votes are too many to make it in power cf any one State to make such a boast. If it happens for a long time it will be merely a fortunate coincidence and not an evidence of intelligence, consideration and power. ;

© An Honest Woman’s Shiri. . Theodore Tiltun, in his lecture on “The Problem of Life,” tells a story of the king who could not be happy except by wearing a happy man’s shirt. “When the happy man was found it was ascertained that he wore no shirt.” This invariably creates a laugh, and Theodore takes advantage of it by sliding in' the following bit of | humor: “Ladies and gentlemen: T suspeet, from the merry humor y‘ou} are in, that many of you would be afraid of unbuttoning your vests.” When Mr. Tilton got this off at Newark,.

: A Coming Issue. The liquor traffic question has got into Congress. Senator Howe,nf Wis‘consin, gas introduced a bill on the subject, which requires the President to appoint, subject to the confirmation by the Senate, a commission of five persons, neither of whom shall be a Federal office-holder, nor an advocate of prohibitory legislation or of total abstinence in relation to alcoholic liquors, who shall serve without salary, and within two years investigate the liquor traffic, its relations to revenue and taxation and ifs general’ economie, criminal, moral and scientific aspects in connection with pauperism, crime, social vice, the public health and general welfare of the people; and also inquire and take testimony as to the practical results of license and prohibitory legisiation for the prevention of intemperance in the several States in the Union. The bill appropriates $lO,OOO for necessary expenses, and requires the commission to report the result of their investigation to the President, to be by him transmitted to Congress. What the outcome of this proposition will be it is difficult to conjecture, but the transfer of the question from the State Legislature to Congress, if entertained by the latter, will be likely to make it an issue in national polities. 2 —— et > B—— ————— } ;. Thé Rolly Maguires. It was lately mentioned that the Archbishop of the Roman Catholie Church of Philadelphia has caused to be read in the churches of his faith, throughout the region’ of Pennsylvania infested by the “Molly Maguires,” ‘a letter which means that his church will not harbor men who defy the laws and menace’society. Their highhanded outrages in the' coal fields of Pennsylvania have given them a widespread notoriety as plunderers and assasins. :It remains to be seen whether they will forsake their organization or- incur, the displeasure of their church in the form of excommunication. The Rev. Mr.. O’Connor, of Mahanoy Plane, says of them: “They are scum, and a disgrace to us as Irishmen and American citizens.”

The following was a part of a young attorney’s peroration on argument of demurrer in a court recently: —“May it please your Honor, this is a stupendous question. Its decision by vou, this day, will- live in judicial history long after you and I shall have passed from this scene of earthly glory and sublunary vanity; when the tower of Pisa shall Dbe. forgotten; when Waterloo and Borodino shall grow dim in the distant cycles -of receding centuries; when the names of Eugene, Marlborough, and Napoleon are no longer remembered; when the Pyramids of the Pharaohs shall have crumbled into dust; when the hippopotamus shall cease to inhabit its native Nile; even then your ruling upon this demurrer ‘will still survive in the volumes of legal lore, as fresh, green and imperishable as an . antique big Thompson grasshopper or a Colorado potato bug.” i

An impudent tramp at Mechanicsburg Pa., marched—without rapping —into a kitchen on Monday.a week last, and finding no man in sight impudently ordered the little woman of the house to “dish him up a hot breaktfast, and be. d—d quick about it!” ' The boiler was on the hot stove and full of scalding water, and suddenly seizing a big dipper, she plunged it into the boiler, and holding it full of the_ scalding fluid, she said pointing ‘to the door: “I'll give yyu something hot, you impudent loafer)” The scamp rushed from the house like lightning and the good woman says she believes that he is running yet. She recommends that the scalding water process be generally adopted with all impudent loafers.

Instead of fouling the hair.with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair froin turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness, The restoration of vitality it gives to the scalp arrésts and prevents the formation of dandruff, which is often so uncleanly and offensive.

Tender lunes need this defence; and it is unwise to be'withont jt. As a safeguard to childven; amid the distressing jdiseases which heset the Turoatand Chest of childhood, CitERRY PrEctoraL is invalaable; for, by its timely use;, multitudes are rescued from' premature graves, and saved to the lové and affection centred on them. It acts speedily and surely against ‘ordinary colds, securing sound’ and health-restoring sleep. No one will suffer troublesome Influe enza and painful Brounchitis, wlen they know hosw easily they can be cured. ; Originally the product of long, laborious, and suceessful chemieal investigation, 1.0 cost or toil is spared in making every bottle' in the utmost possible perfection. It may Le confidently reljed upon as possessing all the virtues it has e{'er exhibited, and ecapable of producing cures jas memorable as the greatest it hus ever effected..
