A Russian Winter Fair.

But the third class of Russian fairs /
have TO mention is the only one really
deserving the name, and that is the Win
ter Fair. The principal of these is the
fair on the ice of the River Neva. There
you see races with sledges and skates,
and with horses, dogs, goats and stays
harnessed to different kinds of sledge
vehicles. They also have their horizon
tai roundabouts, and their perpendicular
high-hyers, like sedan chairs, going up
in the air and down again. But the
grand amusement of all is that of the
"ice hills" They are thus constructed:
A strong scaffolding is raised to the
height of thirty feet, with landing at
the top, assembled by ladder. From
the top of the landing a sloping plane of
boards is laid about twelve feet in
width, and ninety feet long, descending
in very acute angle to the surface of
the frozen river This inclined plane is
supported by wooden piles, decreasing
in height, and the sides are protected by
parapet of planks. Upon the inclined
plane are laid square slabs of ice close
together, and then water is poured all
down the slope. This water freezes
half n minute or SO of Russian winter
is quite enough for that-and the incline
then presents broad sheet of pure ice.
From the bottom of this incline the snow
is cleared away upon the level surface of
the frozen river for the distance of 600
feet, and twelve feet wide (the same
width as the inclined plane. The sides
of this level course are ornamented with
dark green frs and pines. Each fair
goer who wishes to indulge in this ma
tional amusement provides himself with
peculiar sort of sledge-more like a
butchers tray than anything else
ascends the ladder to the landing on the
top, seats himself in his tray on the edge
of the glittering incline, off he goes! and
away he skeels down the slope of icel
Such velocity does he attain before ar
irving at the bottom that he is not only
carried along about 600 feet of this icy
level below, but clean up to the top of
second ice hill like the first, with another
slope on the other side, down which he
skeels with the same rapidity as before,
and away again to an equal distance on
the level below. The sight of q success
sion of these fair-goers, seated in their
sliding trays, balancing themselves as
they cut along, one close upon the other,
yet with no chance of overtaking each
other, unless by some unlucky and very
unusual upset, presents most peculiar
and extraordinary scene. Wheneves the
balance does happen to be lost by man,
down he goes all the same, to the con-
tinual peril of his limbs or his neck; and
it is impossible to predict whereabouts
his headlong career will be stopped.
Boys sometimes-boys will do anything
by way of delightful increase of the
danger, skate like flash down the bright
inclined plane, balancing themselves ON
one leg!-&. Paups Magazine.

Spring In the CIcar;pgs.

In newly-cleared regions Of country, spring lie
always an unhealthy season. The virgin soil, en-
riched by decom posed vegetable matter, sends up,
when first barred TO the sunshine, volumes Of MAS
matte vapor that generates every variety Of inter
mittent and remittent fever. All low-laying,
swampy districts, the deltas Of rivers the praries,
the salt-marshes on the coast, the bayous Of the
Gulf States, and the shores Of the Northern lakes,
are also visited at this season by malarious cpl
denies tina. PROSTATE no iuconsiaerable number Of
their inhabitants This ought not to be, for it can
easily be prevented No fact in medical history is
better established than tho fact that Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters will avert every species Of mala-
rious disorder course OF this standard tonic
and Alternative, commenced ia advance OF the un-
healthy season, and continued regularly until its
close, will prove absolute protection against
chills and fever bilious reittent fever and other
complaints Of periodical type, well as against
the disturbances in the digestive organs and bow
els, SO common at this period CT the year. AS n
remedy for dyspepsia biliousness, liver disease,
nervous disorders, physical weakness, rheuma-
tism, melancholy, hysteria, and ailments to which
the weaker sex exclusively subject, Hostetter's

Clean Hands.

The world moves. 1t is not 80 respect
able as it was few years ago to be n
rascal. People are learning the lesson
that clean hands are desirable, both for
personal comfort and pleasant social in
tercourse. They really seem to be learn
ing that purity pays, and that personal
honor and incorruptibleness are good
investment. Rogues and rings are hay
ing tough time of it, and it is their
own fault if the young and ambitious
men who are now coming upon the stage
of action do not learn to place so high
price upon themselves that neither
wealth nor power can buy them. The
rascalities of the New York ring are all
exposed, and the members of that Ring
have either run away, or are staggering
before public opinion and the law, dis
graced and degraded men. Bribery in
Congress stands exposed and rebuked,
while names that were pure have receiv-
ed tarnish that can never be polished
away. Men who have held their heads
high in the nation, bow those heads in
shame over hands which are soiled be-
yond cleansing. We call no names, but,
scattered up and down the land, great
regulations lie in ruins. Men who had
wealth which they stole, and men who
had positions which they bought, and
men who used their public Office to push
their private schemes, are thrown high
and dry out of influence, and lie all ex-
posed upon the rocks of disgrace, where
they are sure to rot or go to pieces.
If the young politicians of the coun-
try will learn the lesson that the facts
which we have recounted are so well cal
culated to teach, better times for the
country lie in the future. Personal adj
vantages is mean motive to appeal to,
where so vital question as personal
purity is concerned, but, as there is no
danger to morals from any other appeal,
it is well to meet temptation on its own
ground and fight it with his own weap-
ons. The lesson of the recent expo
sures is really needed by none but those
who fancy that they can compass their
ends best by base means and if these
shall learn from it that in the long
run, nothing pays so well in wealth and
power and safety and comfort as virtue,
they will learn that which will be of in
calculable benefit to them and to the
country. No money was ever won by
treachery to trust that did not harm the
winner. No power was ever achieved
by bribery or retained by falsehood that
did not scorch the palm of him who
heldit. The consciousness of ill-desert,
the loss of self-respect, the fear of ex-
posure and the lf-commitment to life
of deception, which go always with pos
sessions unworthily won, are poison in
the blood, and the exposure, sooner or
later, is as sure to come as death

Generating Cabbage.

1t is throwing away ones time and
money to attempt to raise cabbage on n
poor, thin soil. Where barn-yard ma
nure can be had at 81 per two-horse load
it will be found the most reliable and
cheapest of any fertilizer for the crop.
An application of fifty two-horse loads to
the acre will be found none too much to
raise q crop of late cabbages. Besides
this, it will pay to put on before plant
ing 800 to 400 pounds of Underground
bone, fish, guano, or superphosphate
when the yard manure is turned under
at the second blowing, then before the
last narrowing light dressing of ten or
twelve bushels of salt to the acre may
be seattle; red evenly over the surface
with adv 4ntage. Late cabbages may be
KEPT tn ough the winter in Massachu-
sets in the same way they are in New
Jersey, either in the beds or single rows,
and covered with three or four inches in
thickness of soil. Ayearago the ground
in New Jersey was frozen in places two
and half feet deep, and cabbage buried
in time in the fall kept in good condition
until March.

Spring Management OF Cows.

Dairymen are now making ready for
the opening of their business, as it has
become quite general practice to have
the COWS come in in March. The plan
of having the dairy season open early is
good one, providing the COWS are
rightly managed during the spring
months. When the grass begins to
start, and the sun to shine warmly, cows
begin to lose their appetites for dry feed,
and not getting sufficient of the green,
fail in flesh at the very time they should
be the most prosperous.
An old dairyman, and one who is re-
markably successful, tells me that he
does not believe in cutting or steaming
good hay for COWS in winter, for in cold
weather they are glad to get it, and if
properly protected from storms will
keep in good condition without grain,
but when spring comes, and the cows
begin to get taste of fresh grass, he
cuts all of the dry feed, and not only
brines it little, but gives it good
sprinkling of corn and oat meal, mixed
half and half he uses less feed in this
way, and his COWS gain daily upon it,
and never get so much grass, but they
are willing to go to the barn at night for
the foddering. Cut feed is given until
the pastures afford ample for the herd to
fill themselves to satisfaction and gradu-
ally lessened as the season advances.
There is no economy in attempting to
stint mich COWS, to overfeed them, or
to milk too many weeks in the year
They require food both to sustain them
selves and to make milk lack of food
will diminish both. Overlooking will
exhaust the physical nature prematurely
and milking eleven months i'll the year,
will work like result in majority OF
oases.-Cor. Ohio Farmer.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Two Pictures.

An old farmhouse with meadows wide
And sweet with clover on each side;
bright-eyed boy who looks from out
The door with woodbine wreathed about,
And wishes, his one thought all day:
" Oh II could but fly away
From this dull spot the world TO sos,
How happy, happy, happy,
How happy should be :"
Amid the city's constant din,
man who round the world has been,
Who, mid the tumnlt and the throng,
Is thinking, thinking all day long;
"Oh could only tread once more
The held path to the barn-house door,
The old green meadow could see,
How happy, happy, happy,
How happy should be !"

Bees In the Spring.

AS this season approaches it seems to
endow all nature with new life or zeal.
Bees are not slow to discover this, and
will have an earnest desire to come out
on fine DAYS. The hives should be
brought from their winter quarters and
set on the stands on which you intend
them to remain during the season. Now
know how their supplies are, and only
feed in case of necessity. If they have
honey, which you should know, they do
not need feed. You need to use much
care in feeding; it is liable to induce
robbing. 1t sometimes may be neces-
sary to feed, but is not always the surest
way TO success If you find it peces-
sary to feed, | would take the stock or
hive to closed room, and there feed 1T
enough to last several days, which they
will store in the combs, and then return
them to the stand, keeping good look
out. In all bee management, 1t is neces-
sary to see your bees often.
Now, as the season advances, the
colonies will steadily be growing stronger.
Remember that the swarming season is
advancing have your hives made for
the season, all in readiness, not having
TO wait after a swarm comes out to make
one. Study well the chapters on natural
and artificial swarming. BE prepared to
know what to do. As some seasons are
in advance of others, it is well to take
this into consideration. Ohio Farmer.
Dry Food for Horses.
The Spirit Of the Times says We
never have believed, and never shall be-
lieve. that chopped hay and corn meal,
saturated with water, is proper for a
working horse as general diet. We
firmly believe that the food of a working
horse. who cannot be pastured, should
be good. sound oats and sweet hay for
at least five days a week. Look at the
South. where the common run of work
ing horses are fed on corn. What is
found there? Why, the big-head,
terrible and almost incurable complaint.
We also think that wet corn meal is the
very worst way of feeding corn to a
horse that ever was practiced. And the
chopped. wet hay is not half so good as
fine. bright timothy from the now We
like to hear the horse grinding up his
GOOD timothy hay, like grist mill, after
he has finished his oats. A nice mash
once in while is good, and very differ
ent thing from almost "ohs'anU SUI, olet'
Melon Wine.
How true it is that it takes everybody
to know everything Pumpkins and a
variety of delicious watermelons grow
spontaneously in Arabia. Perhaps they
develop more richly there than in Per-
sia. where they are extremely good. In
the great plenty, immensely beyond the
demands of consumers where they most
abound, the prudent lockers ahead cut
a hole through the rind, while on the
vine, down into the pulp: 1t is then
closed tightly with wax. Under genial
sun the cone soon begins to melt away
till it all disappears, leaving the shell
nearly full of delicious fluid which is
called melon wine. Like the drink OF
the gods, it is not 10 be compared with
