Big Brindle.

I'm Nashville, many years ago, there resided
a gentleman ofgreat hospitality, large fortune,
and, though uneducated, POSSESSED of hard
knotty sense. Col. w. had been elected to
the Legislature, and had also been judge Of
the county coGrt.
His elevation, however, had made hin sonfe-
what pompous, and he became very fond of
using big words. On his farm he had very
large and mischieveus OK, called Big Brindle,
which frequently broke down his neighbours
fences, and committed other dOPredations;
much to'the ColonePs annoyance
One morning after breakfast, in presence
'ct some gentlemen who had stayed with him
over night. and who were Aow on their way
to town, he called to his overscer and said to
him
'Mr. Allen, desire you to impound Big
Brindle, in order that L may hear no more
animadversions Of his eternal depredations."
Allen bowed and walked off, sorely puzzled
to know what the Colonel meant. After tho
Colonel left for town, he went to his wife and
asked her what Colonel w. meant by telling
him to impound the OK.
why" said she. ':the Colonel meant to
tell you to put him in a pen"
Allen left to perform the feat for it was
no lnconslderable one, us the animal was very
wild and vicious, and after great deal of
trouble and vexation he succeeded.
"Mell," said he, "this is impounding, Is
it! Now, LIN dead sure the Colonel will ask
if impounded Big Brndle, and I bet I'll
puzzle him as badly as he did me-"
The next day the Colonel gave dinner
party, and turned towards the overseer, and
said
"Eh, Mr.. Allen, did you impound Big
Brindlc, SIR"
ayes, 1 did, sir, but old Brindlc transcend
ed the impannel of the impound, and scatter
sophisticated all over the equanimity of the
forest"
The company laughed and the Colonel red
dened
"What do you mean by that sir Pr
said he
'.Why mean, Colonel" said Allen,
THAT Big Brindlc being pro nostiestcd with
the 'dea of the cholera, ripped and tared,
snorted and paved dirt, jumped the fence,
took to the woods, and wouldn't be impound
ed no how"
Here the laugh was quite audible.

How to Plant Lima Beans,

After preparing the ground thoroughly,
by making it as mellow as practicable, set the
bean-poles, one in the middle of each hill, be-
fore the beans are plated. Then take one
bean at time, between the thumb and fin
gers and press it into the ground, about four
inches from the pole, always with the eyes
aoVm-rGr1ls. If the ground is sufficiently
moist to promote termination, let them be one
inch, and covered with mellow soil. On the
contrary, If the soil lacks moisture, it is bet
ter to puteTery bean at least two inches deep
in order to insure sufficient moisture to cause
termination. Ii the seed is good, four beans
around each pole will be enough for one hill;
and the hills should be at least three feet dis
tant in one direction, and two feet apart the
other way. In case the seed is not of su-
perior quality, it will be advisable to plant
six or more beans in hill ; and afterwards
thin the young plants to four for each hill
The runners should be watched, every two
days, at least, and tied to the poles if neces-
sary, as the luxuraint growth will be checked
in few days if the runners are allowed to
spread around on the ground, having no sup
port. Any kind of pole>beans must have
stake to sustain the vines, or they will not
fructify abundantIy.
The object of planting Lima beans with so
much care is to facilitate their coming up
IL IuS SUI NC uedHy, auI somewhat COM
pact, as the stem takes the bean on its upper
end, and thrusts it upward through the earth
which covers it, after which the kernel splits
in two equal parts, each part forming a seed
leaf, fthe beans were planted with the eyes
upward, or even on the side, it is utterly i'm
possible for the bean to come up whereas, if
the eyes be directly beneath the kernel to be
lifted, the growing stem will force passage
to the surface, except when there is hard
crust formed. AS Lima beans are so large,
and yield so bountifully when we'll cultivated,
it is matter of economy to plant every bean
with great care. We hive known Li1nas
thrown promiscuously into the ground, and
covered the proper depth; yet not one-third
of the number every appeared above ground,
because it was impossible for the stem to raise
such large, heavy kernels when they rested
on their sides. If such beans be dropped as
other seed is planted as tie Lituas are more
fiat than round, they always rest on the sides,
with the eyes where the stems must start in
a disadvantageous position for stems to bear
the bean to the surface of the ground. The
form of many Lima beans is such that, when
dropped on the ground, the eyes will be in
position to send the stem at an angle of forty
or more degrees up,oard, Instead of downward.
Still, if the beans be covered with light mold,
when thus planted, they will come up. But,
if there be large proportion of clay in the
soil, the beans will find great difficulty in COM
ing up, unless the kernels are planted as d.
rcctedJ bJ sticking" them.
