When to Mow Grass.
Every year the question comes sup,
'What is the best time to mow grates?'
Here are some facts on the subject,
as regards timothy, that are worthy
of note: As a result of .'careful chemi
cal analyses of timothy at full bloom
and 'at the Massachusetts Agricultu
ral Experiment Station last summer,
the'follwing conclusions weroreach,
ed; "it was found that the amount of
water in. timothy diminishes very
rapidly after the period of full bloom.
2. There is a largo "increase in crude
fibro in latocut timothy over that
cut at the ptrrod of full bloom. 3 As
the grass approached the age of ma
turity there was a considerable dim
inution in the percentot sugars and
an increase in starch. 4. The piopo
Vion of albuminoids-; the nutritious
element to the other organic con
stituents diminished after the period
of full bloom; and in latp cuttimothv
the- albuminoids were much loss di
gestiblo than in that cut at the time
of ip.ll bloom. 5. The experiments of
Prof. Ladd show that the increase
in the quantity, of timothy after the
period of fuli bloom was notsuflScSent
to overbalance tho lower digeslibiiitj'
of the albuminoid, togeiber wilh the
large increase of fibre. 6. Prof, iiadd
conclnded that it is preferable to cut
timothy f r feeding at the period of
full bloom' rat her than, after the seeds
have formed."

J. A. Dawson of Pictoo, N. S. was
reported at a meeting of the Nova
Scotia Fruit Growers A8SOciation,by
the Secretary ,as having tried with
entire success the application of salt
water to the bark of apple trees, lor
destroying the bark louse. One pint
ot halt is dissolved in two gallons ot
water. A singlo application is made
about Juno 10, witn a stiff paint

tame effect will be produced by
making a mouud ot fresh manure
around the base of the stem" eight or
ten inches high, or even of earth, but
if done later m the soason these pre
ventive remidies will be of little use
alter the eggs have been deposited
in the bark. After the insects have
obtained possession, .and their pres
ence is shown by the sawdust-like
eastings, clear their openings with
tho point of a knife or punch them

r In Europe long credits linger most In
Germany, one of its poorest countries,
and the only one, except Turkey, where
more credit is still given in retail busi
ness than in wholesale. But even in
Germany the cash system has lately
been making-considerably way. On
great obstacle to it' there, as elsewhere,
is the shop-keeper himself. He thinks
the cash system lowering to the dignity
of his establishment, or wanting in re
spect to his customers; he believes he
has a better hold on the continuance of
their custom and is liable to sell more
to them if they keep an aecount with
him, and he knows he can charge them
a better price by reason of the accomo
dation. It is usually supposed that the
credit system is advantageous to the
shopkeeper, this, however, may be
doubted, but there can be no question
that the abolition of the system of
shop credits wouM.be an unmixed bene
t)t to mankind. Producers' credits may
lead to occasional overtrading, but it is
at least a means of immensely increas
ing production; and wealth, through
bringing capital- not into baing, but
what practically is as good into use.

Poor countries iare overrun with credit,

Pity, Delicacy, and Lap Dofs.-
Excellent as restraining influences,
as governing powers they would be,
and are, simply destructive of all true
manhood. The one mitigates the se
verity of pure justice, the other removes
ugljneBS wheii it. can, softens it whon
It cannot, and i beautiiles essential pov
e-rty with adventitious ornamentation.
Jiut where shoiddwe bo if this pity,
this delicacy, had the upper hand, and
the nervous fears and refinements of
women depressed the energies of men

llough and eruel and ghastly things
must be dono iu the' world, and pity
for the individual must uot be suSered
to interfere with the general good for
the most part , brought about by the
sacrirlce of the individual. Else must"'
we go back to root eatiog and substan
tial barbarism. But the individualiz
ing faculty of women conies into soften
what cannot be prevented, and their
pity restrains unnecessary excess of
necessary 'suffering. Thus, each faculty
acts as that well worn drag without
which things would go too fast, but
with which, in exaggeration, things do
not go at all. For example, rabies rmjy
be prevalent, but the largest proportion
of the women with favorite lap dogs
are more indignant because of tbe dis
comfort of their own rouzzled pets than
able to appreciate the usefulness of the
general law. I
If polled to-day, that largest propor
tion would vote for the abolition of the
muzzle, no matter what the results to
the community at' large, glad to secure
the freedom of their own at the expense
of a principle. - And what is true of
lap dogs is true of all the rest.

Iu Front of the Capitol. i
On the western front of the Capitol,
on the second terrace, is a small oval
pond fenced with high, thick railings.
In it is a little water, a good deal of ice
and a dozen or two small-sized gold
fish. - I am told that it costs the govern
ment thirty dollars apiece per annum
to keep those fish. Of course, they have
to be fed, cared for and taken out of
the pond when it freezes solid, and
boarded around until it thaws again;
but the main expense, I am told, grows
out of f.be atUpt which have been
made to block? the . little game of: a
stalwart catfish which comes up the big.
drain pipe from the Potomac, half a
mile off, and eats up the spawn of the
gold fish. It has been the custom to
drain the pond and make a raid upon
him three or four times a year. In
each case, of course, he has quietly
gone down the drain to his native
river.
The good we can accomplish in this
world is8mall; the good that all men in
all ages could accomplish if they would
is vast. But in order that this may be
done each working being must serve
his own generation and do his part to
render the next generation more
effiicient. ,
