GsOiisg for q IL usband She has Never
Seen

The Brockport Democrat says that Cal
edonia, Livingston county, has had gen.
uine romance. In substance, it is that a
man, whose name is not given, left that
town about eleven years ago, and neglect
ing to write home, was given up as dead.
Eight months ago his sister, Mrs. Hackeit
received letter from him, stating that he
was in New Mexico. and that he had
made fortune there. She answered the
letter, enclosing picture Of her daughter,
Maggie Hackett. When the long-absent
man received this letter in New Mexico,
he showed the photograph Of his neice to
q companion, wlo was SO Struck" with
her appearance that he wrote to her, pro-
posing marriage, and offering to furnish
the means for her outfit, journey to the
west, etc. This roposal seems to have
been looked upon favorably by the young
lady, who answered the letter, he sending
her by return mail $500 in money, an en-
gagement ring, set of jewelry, etc., and
request that she. WOULD correspond with
her uncle as to his character, tinancla
standing, etc. She did SO, and the uncle
reported him well-to-do and "per(ect |
gentleman" 1t was in due time arranged
that she shonld take the money and valu-
bles, and go to New Mexico, with the un-
tlerstanding that, if after becoming per-
sonally acqu inted with the lover whom
she had never seen she was not suited, he
was 10 send her home again. She started
three weeks ago. She is eighteen years
Of age, poor working girl, belonging to

lie Caught Them.

Some years ago an eccentric genius,
the Rev. Thomas P. Hunt, used to give
temperance lectures. One night he an.
nounced that he would lecture in Easton.
Now temperance was not in favor among
the male portion of the burg. The WON
en- however, were all in for the "pledge,"
and, consequently on Hunts first night
not man showed himself in the hall.
The benches were pretty we'll filled with
women, though, and Hunt commenced !;
but, instead of temperance, he put them
through on the vanities of dress, etc.
They wore great stuffed full sleeves then.
l-They-the sleeves-caught it, then
their tight lacing, and so on through the
whole catalogue of female follies not a
word about temperance. And the ladies
went hopping mad, told their husbands
about it, and voted old Hunt down to
the lowest notch.
He had announced that he would lecture
at the same place the next night. Long
before the time appointed they COM
menced to come, and when Hunt hob
bled down the aisle the building was
comfortably we'll filled with men. The
old fellow looked about, and muttered:
Clogs, I've got you nowp'
After the crowd had got quiet little,
the lecturer said:
Friends you wanted to know what
meant by saying Hogs, I've got you
now and I'll tell you. Out West, the
hogs run wild /; and when folks get out of
meat they catch young pig, put strap
under his body, and hitch him to a young
sapling that will just swing him from the
ground nicely. Of course he squeals and
raises rumpus, when all the old hogs
gather around to rec what's the matter,
and they shoot them at their leisure.
Last night hung pig up, 1 hurt it a
little and it squealed. The old hogs
have turned out tonight to see the fun,
and I'll roast you" and so he did, pitch
ing into their favorite vice with a relish
and gusto.-Brooklyn Arss.

Fall VS.. Spring Oats.

The Nindicator, published in Missis
sippi, says that the universal tendency
is, that early in the fall is the proper
time to SOW the red, rust-proof oats, and
says do not fail to SOW them by the 18th
of October.
Col. d. Wyatt Aiken, in the Rural
Cdroltonian, says: Sown in the fall they
will produce a remunerative crop on
good land, even if frozen out during the
winter to single stool to every square
foot. They are heavier than any other,
and have never been known to take the
rust. Fair uplands in middle South
Carolina will average twenty bushels
without manure; and / have seen ii
stated that the Mississippi bottoms have
yielded one hundred bushels per acre
during favorable seasons.
Mr.. 8. C. T., who lives near Spring
field, Mo-, gave an account in the Rural
World fpase 1T of the present volume)
of the red rust-proef oats. He also wrote
US that he had bought some of these oats
and informed Us that several of the lead
ing farmers in the vicinity where he now
resides have sown them. What the re-
suit was we have not learned. Mr.. T.
will greatly oblige US if he will give the
result of the experiment. We shall also
be obliged if he or any Of our subscrib-
ers will inform us whether these oats
have been or can b successfully grown
"a far or farther north than st. Louis.
Another VARSITY is mentioned in the
Aberdeen (Miss.) Examiner: Mr.. VIM.

Farm ano Firesioe.
Feed for Horses.

The appropriate kind Of grain to be
fed must depend upon the work to be
performed. If the horse is to be driven
rapidly on the road, then only such
grains as contains large portion of nj
trogenous food should be used, such a:
oats, peas, wheat bran, oil-caie, etc
Probably the best rations for medium
sized livery horses is 8 pounds of hay,
pounds oats, pounds fine wheat bran
and ] pound oil-meal, pc. day, costing
at present prices, 80 cents. This small
amount of oil-meal should not be omit.
ted, as it will generally prevent consti.
patton, and assist in the digestion Of
other food. 1t is much better to regu-
late the bowels of the horse with food
than with medicine. If the oil-meal
does not keep the bowels sufficiently free
use occasionally little stepped faxseed.
This is much safer than linseed oil, as
that is liable to be adulterated. Rye or
barley meal may be substituted for a
part of the oats.
For draft work with a walking gait,
whether on the farm or in the city, the
best ration is corn and oats, or corn and
barley ground together, and mixed with
moistened cut hay. In this case 10
pounds hay, 10 pounds of the mixed
meal, and pound of the oil-meal, or 8
pounds of the meal with of fine bran,
costing, in most places not over 25 cents
per day. A few potatoes, carrots, beets
or parsnips are excellent for the health
of the work horse.
For horses not at work, or having only
a little exercise, l6 pounds of early cut
hay, pounds oats, with few roots or a
little oil meal, will keep them in fine
condition and good health. Such horses
may also be kept on clover or timothy
hay, without grain, if that is cheaper !;
but no animal should be kept through.
out the winter on dry food alone. Vari-
ETY. of food should be provided, as far as
can be done with economy.-Live Stock

Thompson, who farms in the northeast
ern portion of this county, near the Ala
bama line, sent us q sheaf of what he
terms "the grazing oats" He claims
that these oats, if sowu in October, will
afford as fine pasturage as rye, all through
the winter, and will yield more boup-
tiful crop than any other variety cut in
the spring. He also regards them as
proof against rust.

SOuthd0wn Sheen,

This valuable sheep has been known
and bred long time in England, where
it has hardly maintained the character O!
hardy animal, yielding medium guam
tity of wool, and furnishing mutton of a
superior flavor. Mr.. John Elman, of
England according to the history, took
them thoroughly in hand, and founded
a flock which has been the source whence
all the best blood has since been derived.
A good SOuthdown is described rs follows:
The head small and hornless; the face
speckled or gray, and neither too long
nor too short; the lips thin, and the
space between the nose and eyes narrow;
the under jaw. or chop fine and thin
the ears tolerably wide. and well covered
with wool, and the forehead, also, and
the whole space between the ears well
protected by it, as defense against the
fly; the eyes full and bright; the legs
neither too long nor too short.
The Southdown, both for mutton and
for fleece, is fully equal to any other
breed. They do not shear quite as heavy
n fleece, nor market so heavy a carcass
as some of the. long woods, but both are
worth more per pound in the market.
The buck can be profitably introduced
into any flock, which will result in inn
provement. The Southdown is beau
tiful, quiet animal, and SO thoroughly
domesticated as to follow readily after
its owner, and it seems to be fond of the
companionship of mani v H., in

BOILING FRUIT WITHOUT SUaAI.-I

BoIL1NG FRUIT WITHOUT SUGAR.-Ii
may not be generally known that boiling
fruit long lime without the sugar and
without cover, is very economical, BE-
cause the bulk of the scum rises from the
fruit, not from the sugar; boiling with
out a cover allows the water to evaporate
and SO the fruit is frmer and better
favored.
