A Strong Stomach.

A Western cattle dealer, who rarely had the
privilege Of sitting down to meal with fami-
ly, and had never been in a minister's house in
his life, was not long ago benighted and lost in
his ride across the prairies, and compelled to
ask for lodgings in the FIRST house he could find.
Happily for him, it proved to be the dwelling Of
good man, a parson, who gave him cordial
welcome, and, what was especially agreeable,
told him supper would soon be ready. The
travellers appetite was ravenous, and the mo-
ment he was asked to sit by, he compiled, and
without waiting for second invitation, he laid
hold of what he could reach.
"Stop, stop"' said the good man of the house;
ave are in the habit of saying something here
before we eat"
The hint to wait till the blessing was asked,
the rough customer did not understand; but
with his mouth full, he muttered:
"Go ahead! say what you like! you can't
turn my stomach now"

A Clerical Anecdote.

The Rev. DR.. P, Of Brooklyn, belonged
to the old school of divines; and while attend
ing to his usual Sabbath ministratioas, he man.
aged to discover who of his congregation were
absent, and his first duty on Monday morning
was to call on the absentees, and find out why
they were not at church.
Among those whose places were often vacant,
was one man who cared but little for the sane
tity of the holy day, or reproof of the minister
On taking his usual Monday morning rounds
Mr.. P was sure to visit Mr.. c., as We
will call him. Said the good man:
"why were you not at church yesterday"
"Had other business to attend to-" was the
blunt reply.
"Mr. c." said the clergyman, solemnly,
"there will be no preaching in hell"
"Well, it won't be for the want of minister's 81
was the quick rejoinder.
This was hard cut, and the good old doctor
shook his head, and went on his way, rsminat-
ing, doubtless, upon the doctrine of total de-
pravity.

Cultivation Of Cucnmhsr..

For the period Of several years / have been
IN the practice Of growing this vegetable for the
market, and am now prepared to detail the
principles of my practice in fall. In nv sarli-
est undertaking, I was, like all nOVices, Undue
ed 10 the belief that old soil was preferable to
asW, and that it was next to impossible to
grow . good crop unless the soil had been pre-
viOusly AmslioratSd by the application of old
manure, q series of Wesded crops, extending
through q number Of seasons to refine and rem
der 1t light. This error, however, was one that
soon corrected itself, and fonnd to my NOR
tiicaiion and chAgrin that old soils, however
rich in the principles of vegetable life are Who'll
, ly unfit for this purpose, and that must either
"mOdify my efforts or renounce my trade.
% Il 90 ehaHced In breaking up piece of pas
ture ground, that a small triangular piece re-
nained uno0cupied, and my ''hirSd man" iRsis-
ted on planting it in melsns and cIcumbsrs, q
proposition to which readily consented, and was
accordingly appropriated to those seeds. A
small shovel full Of old hog manure was de-
posted in each hill, and in the autumn as fine
crop Of melons was gathered as I ever saw
raised, while the cucumbsrs 6Ourished equally
Es we'll, we're unnolSsted by worms or bugs,

valuable hint thus fortuitously suggested,
have invariably chosen new soil, broken in the
swArd, for my cueumbsrs, and have never fail
ed in securing good and an abundant crop

Having noticed that currant bushes may as
wen be made trees a. shrubs, / have concluded
to tell yOu how have seen il done. In the
spring of 1871 my father commenced q garden,
and among other things set cuttings for car
rant bushes. determined to make an expert
msnt on one of these cuttings, and a. it grew
I pinchsd of all the leaves except the top taft,
which l let grow. The cutting was about half
way up to the frat years growth. 80 as to leave
the lowest limbs about two feet from the ground.
It bAAehed we'll, and became . nice little
dwarf tree. When it came to bear fruit it was
more productive than any other bush in the gar
den, and the fruit larger Il was less infected with
spiders and other insects hens could not pick
of the fruit, and grass and weeds were easily
kept hon about the roots, and besides all this.
il was an ornament instead Of a bleRish. Now,
would propose that currant cuttings be set in
rows I've feet each way, let them be long and
straight enes, and trained into trees.

Tbe Endurance Of Horses.

Some curious experiments have been made
at the Veterinary school at Abort by order of
the Minister of War, TO ascertain the endurance
of horses, as in beseiged town, for example {:
1t appears that horse will live on water alone
five and twenty days seventeen days without
eating or drinking only five days if fed but
uawatered, ten days if fed and insuficisntly wat
cred. A horse kept without water for three
days drank l04 pounds of water in three min
utes. 1t was found toe, that horse taken af-
ter being fed and kept in the active exercise of
the squadron school," completely digested its
"fesd" in three hours; in the same time at the
''cOnScript's school," its food was two-thirds
digestcd; and il kept perfectly quiet in a sta
BILE, digestion was scarcely commenced in three
hours.

Badly Corned.

A traveller, fatigued with the monOtony of a
long ride through sparsely settled section of
the country, rode up to a small lad that was en-
gagged in trimming and dressing out siekly

sion of his spirits thus:

is rather small"

"But it looks quite yellow"

The horseman proceeded on his way, and has
not been known to speak to a boy since.

The question is often asked where do sea birds
obtain water to slack their thirst, but we have
never heard it satisfactorily answered till few
days ago. An old skipper with whom We were
converting on the subject, said that he lad fire.
quently seen these birds at sea, far from any
land that could furnish them water, lowering
around and under a stormy cloud, gathering
like ducks on hot day at pond, and drinking
in the drops ofrain as they fall. They will

water is merely matter ofconjecture, but prob
