THE AUTHOR OF THAT lMENORAN-
DUN FOUND AT LAST.

Washington correspondence OF the Springfield
(nl) journal.
The celebrated memorandum
which. to the admirers of the Admins
tration, suggest egeI "third tern" F"
has provoked great interest as to its
origin. Many recognize the terse style
of q. S. Grant, others the practical,
money-wise head of Senator Jones.
The paper, aside from its policy, is
very able, even scholarly in its simple
strength, aud if you should feela desire
TO see its fac simile, and can succeed In
securing a little pamphlet written and
published about six weeks since by
Judge w. Paschai, of this city, formerly
of Texas, YOU will enjoy that pleasure.
The name of this pamphlet is "How to
Resume" and not only the section
known as the Grant memorandum"
befo.e the people, but the entire paper
is able.

Bark Splitting of Apple Trees.

What is the cause of this very lestruc-
tive evil, and what the remedy to be used
for il! When it once begins, apparently
but little can be done to save the tree.
Last year we had five beautiful trees to-
tally destroyed. The bark split up the
side of the tree facing the south and south
west; not one showed any injury in any
other aspect. We tricd binding up and
various curatives, but all of no use. The
trees were also killed; only one plum
tree was, however, affected in similar
way. From the aspect of the split invari-
ably facing the sunny side of the tree,
became convinced the evil rests in some
way in the sun itself. Had it been other
wise, the split would have occurred in va
rious positions. The evil cannot be due
to too much moisture Our orchard is well
underdrained, and being situated on san
dy soil, could not well be supposed to be
affected by this cause.
In thinking over the troublt, became
almost convinced the splitting of the bark
was due to the heat of the suns saws
falling ON frozen trees. Consequently
placed pieces of board against the south
and southwest sides of each tree. After
thus shading them no more splitting took
place Cor. Cdnada Farmer.

"Iust as you think proper" said Sum,

So the man ran up two more rods, and
"There-that's done. Now let's settle
up"
"Why the jobs finished, and now I'll

"Ofcourse do. Didn't you tell me to

"My house !" shouted Summers. "Thun-

ridiculous. Why man, this is the court

ner in which that lightning rod man tore
around town and swore was fearful. But
when he got his rods off the court house he
left permanently. He don't fancy the place.

Indian Meal as a Fertilizer.

The Practical Farmer says BENJAMIN
Shepherd, of Greenwich, Ne, sew, pc !.
Gently brought into our office samples
OF Campbcll's late Rose potatoes. These
were the first of this variety we had seen,
are attractive in appearance, though the
surface is lot smooth like Early Rose, hayg
ing more OF less knots. This may hayk
been accidental. The kind of fertilizes
used was Indian meal, strewed along thS
rows, about in the same proportion as Pc.
ruvian guano. This latter was used along
side, in rows under the same circumstances
and the result was very marked in favor
OF the Indian meal. Our friend B. Shep-
herd, has at other times tested the
value OF this as a fertilizer, both on gross
and wheat, with excellent results, and nj.
it is only about half the cost of many IL
the fertilizers in market, he strongly recon-
mends farmers to make a trial of it, byE
small strip sown on wheat fields the pr( I.
ent year. Applied in hills of corn, it has
had remarkable effect in stimulating growth
the same as guano, and like the latter it
has killed the corn when in contact with
the growing germ. The stimulating effect
of Indian meal must be owing to the
heterogeneous elements contained in it. Its
consistence in a fine powder renders it
speedy Of decomposition and quick in
action. Out West, corn is used for fuel,
and it may be found valuable here as n
fertilizer, in the event of heavy crops.

The Lightning Rod Mans Mistake.

who was sitting on the steps in front He
accosted Summers, as the owner of the resi-

house."

Are you going to put any ons'
"Well, hadn't thought of it," replied
Summers.
You ought to. A tall building like this
is very much exposed. I'd like to run you
up one of my rods; twisted steel, glass fen

Certainly you may if you want to.
havn't the slightest objections" said Sum-
mcrs.
During the next half hour the man had
his ladders up and his assistants at work,
and at the end Of that time the job was
done. He called Summers out into the
yard to admire it. He said to Summers
"Now, that's all we'll enough, but if it
was my house, I'd have another rod put
on the other side. There is nothing like
being protected thoroughly"
"That's true" said Summers, would be
better"

man.
"Why of course, if you think it's best,

Accordingly the man went to work

How the Lion WOOes his Bride.

Let us first sketch the story of the lions
life, beginning with the marriage, which
takes place toward the end of January.
He has first to seek his wife; but as males
are far more abundant than the females,
who are often cut off in infancy, it is not
rare to find young lady pestered with the
addresses Of two or three gallants, who
quarrel with the acerbity of jealous lovers.
If one of them does not succeed in dis
abling or driving away the rest, madame,
impatient and dissatisfied, leads them into
the presence of an old lion, whose roar she
has appreciated at distance. The lovers
at once fly at him with the temerity and
fury of youthful fire and evaporation. The
old fellow receives them with a calm assu-
rance, breaks the neck of the first with his
terrible jaws, smashes the leg of the second,
and tears out the eyes of the third. No
sooner is the day won and the field clear,
than the lion losses his name in the air as he
roars, and then crouches by the side of the
lady, who as reward for his courage,
ticks his wounds caressingly. When two
adult lions are the rivals the encounter is
more serious. An Arab perched in tlee
one night saw lioness followed by a tawny
lion, with full name. She lay down at the
foot ofthe tree; the lion stopped in his path
and seemed to listen. The Arab then
hazard the distant growing of a lion, which
was instantly replied to by the lioness
under the tree. This made her husband
roar furously. The distant lion was heard
approaching, as he came nearer the lioness
reared louder, which seemed to agitate
her husband, for he marched toward her
as if to force her to be silent, and then
sprang back to his old post, roaring def
ance at his distant rival. This continued
for about an hour, when black lion made
his appearance on the plain. The lioness
arose as if to go toward him, but her hus-
band, guessing her intention, bounded to-
ward his rival. The two crouched and
sprang on each other, rolling on the grass in
the embrace of death. Their bones cracked,
their flesh was torn, their cries of rage and
and agony rent the air, and all tins time
the lioness crouched and waggcd her tail
slowly in sign of satisfaction. " hen the
combat ended, and both warriors were
stretched on the plain, she rose, smelt them,
satisfied herself that they were dead, and
trotted off quite regardless ofthe uncompli-
mentary epithet which the indignant Arab
shouted after her.
