EDITORIAL NOTES.
Now is the time to feed and hurry up
the swine and make sure of the market
if it should promise best early in the
season. We should be ready always for
the best that is going.
The stock show at our State Fair will
undoubtedly be the best ever seen in the
West. The Indiana Fair in this respect
was admitted to be the best last year,
and it will without doubt bc much
better this, both in variety and quality.
In the prairie districts of our State
large amounts of prairie hay is being
made. The early wet season gave it a
great growth, and the late dry weather is
maturing it and making it more valuable.
e     e>     ■	
Many farmers reaped largo benefits
from scattering their manure and old
straw on their wheat fields last fall. The
protection thus given wheat, as well as
the stimulating effect of the manure
alwayi? pays largely.' - —
 e     e>     , '	
Gather up the farm tools and carefully put them away for another year.
Remember, there is as much made in
saving as there is in making. The tool
that would wear out in a year or two if
left exposed, when protected with shelter and other care, will last you to raise
several additional crops.
The difference in soils, markets, etc.,
east and west, makes the methods of
farming very different, and therefore
much that is insisted on in the one section is useless in the other. To this
fact is to be attributed the large success
in this section of the agricultural press
over that of the East, which used to circulate here quite extensively.
There is a healthy, growing tendency,
in all quarters of the country to place
our county and State Fairs on their
merits, and hence to abandon the usual
appeal to the baser classes by admitting
racing, and gambling of various kinds.
An institution that must have elements
connected with in order to sustain it,
which corrupts and prostitutes society,
had better cease to exist.
Our Kentucky friends claim a good
deal of merit for what they term
" Kentucky bluegrass," and the claim
has been so long acquiesced in that a
good many are coming to believe that
this valuable grass originated in that
State. It is a fact, however, that the
"Kentucky bluegrass" seed was carried
to that State from Indiana by the Kentucky soldiers who participated in our
Indian war. It was found growing profusely by the army in the vicinity of the
Battle-ground, Tippecanoe county, and
in other Indian districts of the State.
It was the cultivation and valuable use
to which it was early turned by that State
which gave it the name.
Farmers' Sons.
Farmers, give your sons an interest in
your business, or remunerate them in
some fair way for their work. Educate
them yourself in farm matters, and
teach them to use their own judgment
in buying aHd selling farm produce and
stock. Don't tyrannize over them, but
rather treat them as companions, and
encourage them to have confidence in
you. Make home pleasant to them by
means of books and music and rational
recreation. By doing all this you will
render farm life pleasant and attractive
for them, and do much to stop the longing for city life which is now so commonly found among farmers' sons.—
Exchange.
Two objects should be kept steadily in
view in our prison sjstem:* lst. The
protection of society. 2nd. The reformation of the criminal. The last is reached
largely through the punishment whioh
is the result of evil doing, and is sufficiently brought about in most cases by
the seclusion from society, deprivation
of liberty, and plain fare. It is not necessary or proper to add bodily suffering
or the lack of thoso things needed for a
brisk existence, such as light air and
sufficient food.
Idleness has led most criminals into
crime—hence, industry is an expedient
element in reformation.
Ignorance perpetrates crime—hence,
the mind should be educated and the
ramie of thought enlarged.
The naturally evil heart is the prime
cause of crime, which can only be removed by vital Christianity,—hence,
these three elements should form the
basis of all efforts at reformation, viz:
Industry, Education, and Religion.
In our city and county prisons a very
large majority of sentences are inflicted
on drunkards. In some instances
there are chronic cases, who rotate
from the prison to the street. The
length of the sentences in such cases
should bo much enlarged and proper
work-houses established where they can
be kept from temptation and made to
cam their own support.
The confusion at present existing iu
our Grand Jury system is likely to fill
many jails with certain prisoners who
will pass weary months in idleness awaiting trial. If not very wicked before,
they are likely to become so. The benevolent and christian people of thc
land should see that all proper means
aro used to prevent them from sinking
deeper in vice and evil, while thus confined.
In our State prisons the clement of
hope should be combincd|with the punitive clement. Let the time gained by
good conduct bc much enlarged, and additional comforts and privileges bo
awarded to the faithful. Let a system
of classification be adopted, whereby the
better classes arc separated from the
moro evil, as a reward for good conduct.
In this way the convicts may soon ba
sifted and a part at least be saved.
All should have sufficient light, air,
and food—the latter of a solid, nutritious
tiu4„.. •>^.-^—^— J~
Corporal ^un;shmonts do not generally benefit mt. They are usually resorted to by inemcA.nt officers, who can
apply brute force u.v^o -*eadily than
moral means.
All our prisons for men should be
self-sustaining in ordinary times. Capable officers should not be often changed.
Politics should be wholly ignored in the
the management of our prisons, and officers selected on account of their merits
and qualifications. All Ignorant convicts
in our prisons should be taught at least
the elementary branches.   If discharged
Erisoners could be sent out with a trade
y which they will live,—habits pf • industry and some education,—and if proper care and encouragement were extended to them, fewer of them would
return to crime. C. F. C.

Fever Diet.
Dr. Luton of Rheins states that for
the last four years he has treated typhoid
by an absolute water diet. Nothing but
good fresh filtered water, occasionally
iced, is permitted to be taken. At first,
he says, it is taken with avidity, then in
moderation, and at last with signs of
satiety; it is sometimes vomited at _ first,
but is soon tolerated, at the beginning of
the treatment the bowels may be a littlo
relaxed, but they soon become moderate
and less offensive, and after a time constipation may ensue. The duration of
this treatment depends upon the progress
of the disease; that is, between four and
five days of water exclusively may be required, if the fever be treated as a whole,
but three or four days suffice if only the
intestinal element ofthe disease be considered. A light alimentation may then
be allowed—milk, unboiled, may be
mixed with the water and given by
spoonfuls, and if well supported for a
time, to be followed by broth and soup.
Under this treatment the mortality is
very low, no evil results ensue, and
serious complications, including visceral
congestions and bed-sores, at once disappear.      _   	
The Keeley motor, whose inventor
proposes presently to draw a train of
cars from New York to Philadelphia
without fire or steam, and with the
help only ofa small bucket of water,
promises now to be outdone by the
Schrocder air-ship, whose inventor will
be ready in a few weeks to carry twelve
thousand pounds of mail matter through
the air from New York to Liverpool.
Meantime, we hear of a new electric engine to pump water and move machinery
at a ridiculously low cost and with no
more attention than is required to stick
in -. new piece of zinc occasionally, or
fill thc battery-cups with water as this
evaporates. A Frenchman has perfected, it is said, a new lamp, whose flame,
as brilliant as that of the electric light,
is produced by the economical combustion of nitric oxid gas with the vapor of
bisulphide of carbon. A well known
New York man has recently perfected an
«gg-hatching machine, in which the
temperture is controlled and regulated
by electricity.
We have treated land successfully with
peas. There are various ways to do it.
It is an excellent plant, the pea is, to
enrich quite poor Boil. Some prefer it to
clover or anything else.
Plow in the fall or early spring so as
to get an early sowing, .\pply plaster
soon as the crop appears. (If a little
manure is harrowed in with the seed, of
course so much the better.) Turn down
as soon as the plant has its growth. Immediately sow again and apply plaster as
before. When the crop is grown, treat
as before with the plow. Be sure and
plow deep enough so as to get the old
crop up all of it. Now apply the roller
several times (to make compact) followed
by the harrow.
Here is a soil, if it is of a sandy or
gravelly nature, that will grow rye or
even wheat, to be followed in the spring
by seeding down to clover; or, what we
have found better—if the land will bear
it—left for barley in the spring and
seeded down. If the land has considerable clay, and is not too poor, wheat will
be an advantage, as it will grow a good
crop, and permit of an early t-eeding—on
tho snows in the spring which we havo
always found excellent.
Either tho wheat or the barley will be
an early crop, and give a chanco for the
clover to occupy the ground. Let this
crop, if a favorable season advance it
well, be fed down somewhat, tho rest remain and grow till winter. In the summer following, apply plaster and mow
the first crop. Do "this early, by the
20th of .Tunc ifthe medium clover; if
tho large kind, do it a week earlier; but
the large kind would be better fed off,
fed close, by tho 15th of tlie month, in
lotitude -13° or 41°. Use plaster agaii.,
and cut for seed. Then plow and sow to
grain in the spring, seeding down'again;
or, if the timothy—we always sow timothy with tho clover—shows well, leave
for a hay crop tho next summer.    ,
Your land will be by this time considerably improved (so we find it), and no
useless expense incurred—crops havo
been raised all thc while, and it will bc
found they will not have been poor ones,
for the pea is very enriching in its nature, and will grow on poorer soil, with
plaster, than most plants. Wo prefer it
to any we know.
Ono of our farmers, instead of plowing under thc first year, lets the crop
•ririen pp's it. leaving as much of the
straw as possible, ci.-.* /.lows, &c. We
prefer tho wholo crop i»0 go in whore
the soil needs it. There is no expense
of harvesting, and tho strength is retained. In this way tho uoorcst land
may bo profitably reclaimed.
If it is not desirablo to use seed, turn
the crop down when in blossom. Hut in
all cases uso plaster, both on the peas
and the clover. A bushel or a bushel
and * half is usually as good as moro.
And do not spare the seed, either for the
clover or tho peas, some four bushels of
the latter and from eight to ten quarts
per acre of the lormor. You can in no
caso get a_thick growth on poor or moderately rich _ soil with scant sowing.
Green manuring is found to be the cheapest way to enrich land. F. G.
New Every Morning.
rA
Here is an utterance that has the sunbeam it:
"The Lord's mercies are new every
morning."
What an assurance this is to carry
with us in all our wayfarings through
this world I The future is always dark
to us. The shadows brook over it. A
veil hides from our sight. What is under the shadows, what is behind the veil,
what is advancing out of the impervious
mist, none of us can know. We have
no anxious questions to ask. This is
enough for all that is coming:
"The Lord's mercies are new every
morning."
The morning yet to break upon us may
be heavy with storms. No matter : the
new mercies will not fail. Come, live a
comfortable, happy and thankful life.
Don't borrow trouble. Don't be cast
down with care or work. Take up each
day as it comes, certain of this, that
whatever jt lay upon you to do or to
bear, it will bring new mercies for new
deeds.

A Car Load.—Readers of newspapers
often meet with the term "car load,"
but few of them know just what or how
much it, is. The St. Louis Times has
taken the trouble to learn, and says, ns a
general rule, 20,000 pounds, or 70 barrels of salt. 70 barrels of lime, 90 of
flour, 60 of whisky, 200 sacks of flour, 6
cords of soft wood, 18 to 20 head of
cattle, 50 to CO head of hogs, 8!) to 100
head of sheep, 9,000 feet of solid boards,
17,000 feet ot siding. 13,000 feet of flooring, -10.000 of shingles, one-half less of
hard lumber, one-fourthless of green
lumber, one-tenth of joists.' scantling,
and all other large timber, 310 busheh of
wheat, 500 of corn, GSOof oats 400 of bar
ley, 360 of flaxseed. 360 of apples. 430 of
Irish potatoes. 360 of sweet potatoes,
1,000 bushels of bran.
Every farmer should be a close observer.
He should be prepared at the close of
each year to know the result of cultivation in eaoh field; the effect of fertilizers upon the different crops; the effect
of different modes of applying manures ;
the result of different modes of cultivation, &c. All of this information, if
properly recorded, will at some time be
of great value. It is not presumed that
a man raised upon a farm will be successful in all his undertakings, much
therefore shall we look for success from
one who is unacquainted with
FARM OPERATIONS.
Now it may be laid down as a rule,
that like effects, or like results; hence
the necessity in all operations of knowing tho mode of proceedure, and also the
results worked out by that mode of proceedure.
It must be remembered, however, that
the conditions under which operations
aro performed, must in all cases be the
same ; for it is as positive a rule, that if
the conditions aTe unlike, so likewise
will the results be unlike. Every one
can at once see the beauty and necessity
of this wise provision of nature, for
were it not so, man would never know
what results to expect from pursuing
any particular course. It is often urged
by farmers that thoy are unable to know
in their work when the conditions are
tlie same, from the fact that the chemical constitution ofthe soil of their different fields under cultivation arc so
unlike, that a system pursued with success in one, would prove almost a failure
in another, and vice versa. The truth of
this proposition is cheerfully granted,
for thc purposo of proving tho truth of
tho proposition at tho head of this article, for it is plain to see, that if the
mode of culture, tho fertilizers used,
and the crops produced, on a given fiold
aro all mado a matter of record for
future reference, then you have tho conditions, and by following thc same
course thereafter in the cultivation of
the same crop, the same results may be
expected unless prevented by climatie
influences, which are variable conditions
which ■ enter into tho calculation and
may properly be termed accidental conditions.
WHAT SHOULD THE FARMER DO?
In tho first place, (if ho has not already), he should have an accurate map
of his whole farm with all of its subdivisions into fields, gardens, yards, &c;
this, if possible, should bo done by a
practical surveyor, drawn to a scale;
still if this is not convonient, a farmer
can make a rough plan that will answer
the purpose; every subdivision upon the I
map should be properly numbered for
the purnosc of identifying the field, and
eliminating the possibility of mistakes.
This being done ho should havo a blank
book with one or moro pages, as tho
circumstancss of tho caso may require,
numbered to correspond with the numbers of his fields, as marked on the
map, and on these pages should be
faithfully recorded all the operations
and manipulations gone through with in
the cultivation of the crops, such as time
of planting,—depth of plowing,—manure
used and hoes applied,—time of hoeing
and any important points worthy of
notice, and last but by no means least,
the result.

Swallowing a Bee.—The  singular
effect of swallowing a bee has been described by the Trenton (N. el.) Gazette:
On tbe farm of Samuel Allinson, near
Yardville, a man employed on the place
was running with full speed after some
sheep, with his mouth open, when a bee
or some other insect flew into his mouth,
and stung him on the baok part of thc
.glottis.    The bee was swallowed, and
stxange to say, in a very few minutes
Jafterward a rash similar to measles broke
lout over the man's whole body.
Scarlet Fever.
Exposition.     ARCADE.     State Fair.
Every one of the three is a big concern of its own and can be visited to
great advantage, ■
For the sake of fine art",
Men, Boys' snltx and overcoats,
To Iloosiers, ability and industry.
None should fail visiting either of the
three, especially tha Arcade No. 6, for
economy sake, as the clothing handled
there this season far excels that of any
former, in point of quality, styles and
prices. 38-lt
The Chicago Inter- Ocean says:
Hundreds of children have fallen victims to scarlet fever in this city during
tho past three months. Concerning the
treatment of this disease, an eminent
physician says that he does not fail in
effecting a cure more than once in a
hundred cases, by giving thc patient
warm lemonade with gum arabic dissolved in it. A cloth wrung out in
hot water and laid upon the stomach
should be renewed^ as _ rapidly as it becomes cool. To this simple treatment
the most obstinate cases seldom fail to
succumb.
there are adjoining fields in which the
character ofthe soil is nearly alike, and
if two different systems of proceedure
arc adopted and the results compared,
there is afforded a sure test as to the
best method to use. Upon meadow lands
experiment can betriedand noted, such
as surface fcrtlization with different substances, irrigation and drainage all of
which will be so much actual knowledge
gained; and then to imagine that a whole
neighborhood were to follow such a
course, and during the winter months,
by means of farmers clubs compare notes,
and discuss results, following back to
causes, what an amount of valuable information would be accumulated.
This every man can do, although at
first view the project appears mountainous, for after plans are drawn and the
record book prepared, a few minutes
each day will complete thc rest. Again
all experiments can be tested or verified
and then becomed fixed facta. All men
are certain of that which they really
know. If there is such a thing as knowledge, then bo far as it goes it excludes
the possibility of error. A mathematician is perfectly sure of the laws of
mathematics, so far as they have been
ascertained and verified. So too, tho
farmer is sure of the laws governing
farming operations so far as they
have been ascertained and verified. In
fact nil modern science rests on the word
verification. Therefore, whatever has
been verified has been made certain beyond the possibility of error.
Now, therefore, if the farmer pursues
the same course in cultivation for two or
more successive years with tho same result, here you have a knowledge; facts
that have been verified, and if this system
is pursued it will be but a few years before a record of results of a whole field,
neighborhood or State could be obtained,
and being made a matter of permanent
record, would prove invaluable through
all future time.
Again, the farmer should have other
books devoted exclusively to recording
thc different diseases of animals, with the
treatment and results, and before he is
aware of it, he will be possessed of a
valuable compendium^ qf veterinary
science. Then farmers awake from the
passive quiet and ease which possesses
you and set about the fulfillment of an
important destiny.
