COMING BACK ON HJM.-When J..
Il. Doolttle Of Wisconsin, left the Re
publican party, Horace Greeley said
this Of him:
Able, adroit, and early schooled in
the arts OF the self-seeking politician,
he has for years done his level best,
against the party which has so honored
and trusted him. He worked like a
beaver, with tongue and pen, to defeat
General Grant, and his labors were
crowned with the largest Republican
vote and the most sweeping Republican
victory ever realized in Wisconsin
We believe the majority there would
have been twenty thousand had he re-
mained faithful; it was swelled to
twenty-four thousand one hundred and
ffty-two by the intensity Of the popu-
lar detestatiou Of Doolittle, his works
and his ways.
The Milwaukee, Wis, Sentinel adds ::
The same popular detestation !"
that was then felt in this State for
Doolittle is now felt for Greeley.

"All Hands Beiow.O

A good story is told of parrot, who
had always lived on board a ship, but
who escaped at one of the southern
ports, and took refuge in a church.
Soon afterward the congregation assem-
bled, and the minister began preaching
to them, in a regular red-hot fashion,
Laying that there was no virtue in them,
that every one of them would go to hell,
unless they speedily repened Just as
he spoke the sentence, out spoke the
parrot from his hiding place

congregation got up aud a moment af

preacher trying his best to be first, and
during the .ime. the mischievous bird
kept up his yelling:

There was an old woman there, who

as the rest, and. in a very short time,
she was left entirely alone. Just as
she was about to hobble out, the parrot

by telling his congregation how he had

FOXES AS SHEEP. .HERDERs. THE Stock
ton (Cal. Republican vouches for the fol.
lowing story: "People often wonder at
the. remarkable instinct displayed by
well-trained shepherd dogs, but what will
they say when we tell them of band of
sheep that is guarded by foxes aloneS
The story seems improbable, but of its
truth we have the most undoubted proof
On Whisky Hill, four miles from Milton,
may be seen, almost any day, q large flock
OF sheep herded by foxes. These guar
dlans OF the little lambs are three in
number-one n gray fox and the other
two of the species known as the red fox.
In point OF intelligence, these novel shep-
herds are said to generally surpass the
best trained shepherd dogs. They per-
form their work well, and from morning
TILL night are ever on the alert. The gray
one seems to control, and in a great meas,
ure direct, the movements of the other
two. A gentleman informs us that he
saw the gray fox pursue and attack a
hog that had seized lamb and was max
ing off with it, The contest was short
and sharp, ard resulted in the hog drop
ping the lamb and beating hasty retreat
The fox picked up the apparently unin-
jured lamb and carried it back to the
flock.n

Application of Manure.

MANURING in the hill for hoed crops was
at one time very common, and even now
some farmers not only apply the econom-
ical but barnyard manures in that man
ner. When boy | have spent many
day in putting common yard manure in
the hill, for both corn and potatoes. II
was usual in the case of potatoes to first
drop the seed in the furrow, put on a
small amount of manure and then cover
with earth, but the corn was either drop
ped on the manure or little earth put on
1t first and then covered; but at this time
no well-educated farmer thinks of plow-
ing in his manure, or of putting it in the
hill with the seed. | have often stated
that the value of these so-called fertilizers
was more in their mechanical and chemi-
cal effects, than in the plant food that
they supplied. The surface soil of my
farm contains 70 per cent. of silica or
sand and 13 per cent. of organic matter;
II per cent of salts, and this is very fair
sample of good prairie soil. Now the
soil of the St. Joseph prairie district
from whence come these inquiries, is an
arenacious soil, with probably soto 90 per
cent. of sand, and n corresponding
poverty of organic matter salts. But if
we examine little further we find fertile
ooilo tiill Nbltuln lIOln w W ID DtT ttnl
of silica. This shows us at once that the
atmosphere is the great storehouse of
plant food and not the soil, but that the
soil is the plant-food- holder, from whence
the plant directly draws its supply. TAX
ing this view of the action of soils we
can sec at a glance that the manure must
be intimately mixed with the soil, or it
must be placed on the surface so that the
rains and dews could extract the plant
food out of it, for no plant can take plant
food in so gross a condition as is present
ed to it in this condition. One great
value Of manures in sandy soil is its at
traction of moisture, but to do this it
must be internally mixed with the soil,
but should not be put in the hill with the
seed. One wagon-load of manure, spread
on the surface of field is of more value
than two or three plowed in deeply, for
the simple reason that it is in no condi-
tion to give up to the plants the small
amount of food it contains, or to become
plant food holder. trust that enough
has been said to show that manuring in
the hill, to say the least, is very unscien-
tifo.--"Raral, " in Chicago Tribune,

favor. We are assured that the substantial

the success of such an enterprise in the

Bees in the Spring.

AS SPRING approaches, our care must be
more yigilant, for when our bees are win
tered out of doors on their summer stands,
the change of weather affects them at
once. The warm days stimulate the
queen to laying eggs, and as the young
larvg are voracious feeders, and in the
case of light supply of honey, the first
thing we may know is, that the store is
exhausted, and the swarm dead. We
must, therefore, look the swarm over at
least once n week, in order to know their
precise condition, and if short of honey,
to give them new supply, in the frames
if we have a surplus in other hives; if
not, we must fall back on melted sugar,
feeding it daily, or we may give rock
candy. An apiarian who is wintering
nearly one hundred swarms out of doors,
nearly all of which have a short supply
of honey, is feeding horehound candy.
He has been able to obtain quantity of
broken candy at Is cents pound, which
he thinks quite as cheap as sugar, and,
thus far, he is highly pleased with the
experiment. 1t requires much less labor
than the sugar, as it appears that they do
not store much, if any, of it in the
combs. He thinks the aroma of the
candy just suits the taste of the bees.
1t would be well, perhaps, in this con-
nection, to guard the bee-keeper against
the indiscriminate use of broken candy,
as it is well known that the coloring-
matter of candies is very poisonous, such
as arsenite of copper, and other similar
pigments. The horehound and rock
candies are free from these poisons.
have some doubt as to the value of
rye flour to supply the place of pollen,
There is no doubt that it will assist in
forcing the brood, but the propriety of
this might well be questioned, as we
have plenty of time for this purpose In
the natural order of things. In seasons
of drouth, when there are few late bees,
it might be more admissible, but even
then it is questionable, as | have shown

No stronger evidence of the wonderful en-

exhibited in the rebuilding of Chicago.
Scarcely five months have elapsed since one
of the greatest calamities ever known leveled
this proud city, consuming over two hundred
millions of property, Quite city has al
ready arisen in the ruins, and the buildings
are of better class than before. During "A
recent visit to Chicago, We noticed among
other fine buildings erected, the mammoth
brick warehouse of the great dry goods firm
of FIELD, LETTER d Co., corner Madison and
Market streets, covering almost the entire
block being 20lXl90 feet IAN area more than
double their former quarters), six floors,
filled from basement to roof; nearly five
acres and a half of dry goods, gathered by
their own foreign and home buyers, from all
parts of the world. This is hut one of the
many great distributing depots, which have
arisen from the ashes, because the Great
West needs them. This irm and their com
pctitors, recognize the fact, that prosperous
business means benefit to the buyer as well as
the seller, and through their wide-awake
policy, i0p prices are brought one thousand
miles nearer to their doors. The Great West
has given Chicago her prominence, because
every country village and city has taken
stock in her." and extend their encourage
