SCENE IN Runway CAR. An incl
dent occurred, few days ago, on board
one Of our outward bound trains of
cars which is worth printing. just
as the train WIS about to move from
the depot, an elderly gentleman, Of
high responsibility and character, en-
tered one of the cars and upon looking
round for seat, saw one with o lady
in it, and politely inquired if the
vacant seat was engaged. She replied
snappishly that she had no more room
than she wanted, whereupon he, being
q quiet, modest gentleman, retired,
and some one offered him a scat. The
selfshness of the lady was noticed by
many Of, the passengers and excited
much Indignation. Shortly after
gentleman who had been occupying a
seat in the back part of the car APP
preached the lady WHO was occupying
that nart of the seat nearest the pas
sage way. He then, very quietly, took
his umbrella, and passing it over the
lady, placed it in corner, near the win
dow. He next very deliberately raised
one foot above her crinoline, and put
it down beyond her, near the window,
and then dragged the other after him
and took his seat amid the laughter
and applause of the passengers, who
were watching the operation. In a
short time the sent in front of them
was vacated, and this interesting lady,
who was by this time the observed of
all the passengers, moved and occupied
II alone, leaving our friend of the UNI
brella to himself In few moments
more a large heavy man, weighing
some two hundred and fifty, and who
seemed disposed to teach the lady a
second lesson, planted himself by her
side. BY this time the passengers
were conyulsed with laughter at the
expense of our heroine, who was
obliged to submit to the contraction,
not only of her crinoline but of her
whole person, for the remainder of her
Journey Possibly she learned that
politeness and courtesy are expected
of ladies as well as gentlemen. -Boston

tect against frost and vermin.
CATTLE ought to be shod

on no account let them fail of flesh.

Cows.-AIillz to within about six
weeks of calving; young cows certainly
TO that time, il possible, to encourage
habit of holding out we'll In icy
weather be very careful of cows with

GRAlN.-Grind all feed out, except
for sheep. Shell corn only as fast as
wanted for use or sale. Give rats at

horses used on the road well calked
b. IoE.-The earlier ice is secured the
better. If well put in, in the coolest
weather, it is good job, out Of the
way. Use clear, good ice only.
MARKETS Hold no produce after n
good price is offered. Grain shrinks,
heats, or is, destroyed by vermin very
often, and beeves and sheep, after they
are fit for market, are seldom kept
with profit more than two weeks at
most ~
PoULTRY.-Feed scraps of meat or
pounded bones frequently. Give them
light quarters, and dry ashes to dust
themselves with, fresh water (but
warm daily, and keep the water and
feed vessels scrupulously clean. Thus
avoid disease among poultry, and get
plenty of eggs.
ROADS AND Paris. If every one does
his full share land little more), tow
ards breaking roads and making paths
about the neighborhood, general com
fort will be enhanced.
RooTs. Feed with care, so rs to
have some always on hand for animals
with young, and for change of diet
if an animal gets off its feed.
SEEDs.-Look out in advance fol
good fresh seeds of all kinds. Try all
that are the least doubtful, in pots OF
boxes Of earth, carefully attended, and
neither too dry. Never keep seeds ii
air tight or very close vessels.
SHEEP should not be confined il
close stables but, except during
storms, should have the range of {

Turnips and beets, fed freely, are very
