Cure Fon PoLE-EvIL.-Take
one tea-spoonful of calonel and
put into the sore; then make a poul-
tee, by Stacking a little quick lime,
and scalding a little Indian meal
with the wafer from the lime; place
this on the sore; it Will cause copi-
Gus discharges for a few days
Take pulverlzed blue vitrioi, with
honey. and apply till the sore heals
up. This l. a sure cure. Keep
the horse where the head will not
get bruised. Low stabIe-lofts are
very injurious to horses; they are
nearly always the cause ofpole eeviI.
Fistula may be cured BY the same
treatment.

Fancy DREANs.-Some young

land, where violets and roses per-
petuaiIy blossom, where the cedar

OLD DOGS AND YOUNG DOGS.


"What have they brought mp
asked the old. cat of Tip, the worn
out terrier, who had just been in
the yard to see the game bags emp
tied.
Tip, not observing Forrest and
Bluff, two settlers, following him,
took his favorIte place behind the
kitchen fire, and, stretching out his
fore legs, laid h. s nose on his paws
and said contemptuously: "Miscr-
able sport: hardly worth going out
for"
"Such bags as 're used 10 bring
in" he continued; Hat was some
thing like sport. Thought nothing
Of dozen hares and ia rabbits-ecores
of 'em-and pheasants TILL We were
fairly tired picking 'em up"
"Ah.' said the cat who was near
ly blind and almost asleep, ''our
days were different from these.
was telling the gray Kittens mother
yesterday, that before was her age
| had caught as many rats as she
had mice"
But Tip was not interested in the
degeaeracy OF breed in cats. lie
went on still more ora:orically on
the lamentab.e change that had TAX
en- place among the dogs and de-
scrioing his own powers in his day.
Forrest and Bluff listened quietly.
''Do not hear him." at last said
Bluff, snow couldn't you believe
he thinks there is not a dog worth
following a gum"
''Perhaps. Mr.. Tip" said For
rest, "you carried off SO much game
in your time that you thinned the
country and left none for u.s.
Tip looked disconnected at this
discovery of having more auditors
of his than he had reckoaed on. and,
dropping his eyelids, pretended to
be asleep.
"Never mind him." said Bluff,
with a sly glance, for he knew he
was shamming; LISA way old dogs
have got of fancying there must be
an end OF good sport now they are
past it. They see double all the
success they ever had and quite for
get tina: they missed at any time.
Poor old dogl we must not mase
the same mistake. Forrest, when we
are in Tips condition.
Whether it was the fire that was
too hot. or the reflection OF his two
reprovers, somehow Tip found 1t
more pleasant to change his place;
and it was observed that after that
time he looked modest when the
bags were emptied, and was silen;
about the doings OF his day.

According to I.aBeIgique Horticole
a new culture has sprung up near
Nuremberg. The flowers OF the
very dark variety of hollyhock,
which appear nearly black, are
ioaad to contain colorlng matter IN

TIE WAY To RAISE BLAcKBER-
niEs.-The vines are planted in
rows three feet apart, and three feet
apart In the rows. Over each row
is stretched stout wire at the
hight OF about fcur feet, with stakes
ut proper intervals to support it at
this hight. As the vines grow they
are tied TO the wire and bent down
along the wire ali in the same
direc,ion--that is, all toward the
south. al toward the north, or III
such direction as may be most
convenient.
The berries are borne on the
wood of the previous years growth.
In the spring of each year. the bear
ing wood OF the year before is cut
out and removed, and the new
shoots are tied TO the wire, the lat.
erai shoots of the new wood teing
at the same time cut back within
foot OF the main stalk. Thus the
whole labor OF trimming and train
ing the vines is performed at one
operation. Ii is better 10 manure IN
the fall, and this all-imp6rtant mat
ter should be attended to every year.

MP in idleness that did not make a
lazy, shil,less vagabond when he
was old enough to lie man, though
he was not man In character, un-
less he had a fortune lett him TO
keep up appearance? The greater
mass OF thieves, pauperS and crlmi-
nails have come to what they are by
being brought up to nothing useful:
those who are good men now, and
useful to the community, were In
dustrious when they were boys.
II you do not ike to work now, a
love for industry can soon be acquir-
