The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1875-05-08

The Virginia New Chronicle relates
the following incident: Capt. Stearns,
real estate agent residing at the corner
OF ID and Carson streets, is the owner Of
a fine Newfoundland dog. He is also
the possessor of a large green parrot,
which is said to be at least seventy years
of age. Within the last few months a
very strong attachment has sprung up
between these two creatures, and they
are almost inseparable. The parrot
talks all day long of the dog, and keeps
calling him by name while he is away.
The dog seems very uneasy when the
parrot Is out of sight, and wanders
about, evidently in an unhappy frame of
mind. He has licked all the feathers
off one of the parrots wings, but still
the latter seems rather to court his
strange caresses. 1t is decidedly inter
eStlng to witness the manner in which
the two play together. The parrot walks
along the dogs back, out on to the tip
OF his nose, when he gravely pecks that
member and as gravely walks back to
the rear. This stately promenade is
kept up for hours, the parrot all the
time croaking out its canine friend s
name, and applying endearing epithets
to him, such as OH you old bum
jack Jack, you rascal' and Others
which are frequently hurled at the dog
by the neighbors' bows"

The Poor Drunkard.

the sunbeams that warmed and ilIu-

THE { berry.

Most varieties of fruit are very PRO
ducuye when the trees are set III rich,
deep soil. But to this rule the cherry
seems to be an exception. Although 1t
IS very hardy tree, it does not flourish
for any length of time in an ex-
tremely rich soil. This is probably
owing to the fact that in such a soil the
growth Is very rapid, and the wood
does not become sufficiently hardened
The bark Is also liable to crack, and the
tree to become diseased. On wet land,
too, there is but little chance of success
with this fruit If it seems desirable to
set the trees on moist ground, care
should he taken to have it thoroughly
drained before they are set But it is
better if they can be put on a sandy or
gravelly loan. The trees will not grow
as fast for few years as they viii in a
richer soil, but they will be much freer
from disease, and a great deal long er
lived. When there is too rapid growth,
and the wood does not ripen, root-prUn-
ing may be rcsoIted to with advantage.
In some way the growth of the tree
should be checked, or it will induce
disease and death.-N Z. Homestead.

Cleanse the Managers.

The managers of horses, cows and
oxen, when supplied with cut fodder

tIon of the wet meal that adheres to the

fuse to eat his accustomed allowance,
unless compelled by keen hunger. The
true way to manage hangers Is, to
scrape the corners clean at least twice a
day, removing every particle of rejected
food. Then, If the manger does not
smell as sweet rs butter bowl, let the
corners be washed out with hot water,
wiped clean, and a handful of caustic

A SECOND FATHER MATTHEw.-Who
is there that does not respect"the mem
DRY of Father Matthew. the great cham
pion Of temperance. Innumerable So
cieties bear his honored name; but there
is one man who has struck more sure
death-blow to intemperance, and that
man is DR.. j. WALKER, an old Califor-
MIA physician, who has discovered in
natures "meek and lowly herbs" a
medicinal "tonic and gentle stimulaDt
that completely takes the place of the
fashionable alcoholic poisons called
tonics, SO popular as a compromise
between strong drink and cold water,
and does away with the mania for drink,
and in reality cultivates an involuntary
disgust for the same. 1t even does
more: It acts upon the entire physical
system, purities the blood, and produces
hale, hardy health. The discoverer of
this great medical stimulant is surely
entitled to the thanks of a whole nation,
and 1t Is not extravagant to entitle him
- a second Father Matthew. Com.

The Music of the Massachusetts Mill

1t is lumored that the Massachusetts
Legislature is about toreduce theappro-
priation for music for the State Militia.
According to the present law band of
eighteen musicians is allowed to each
regiment, battalion, cadet corps, or IN
attached company, and the rumor is
that only one band is to be lowed
each brigade. Possibly the rumor is
without foundation, as inquiry of mem
bers of the committee fails to directly
sustain it, and very likely the matter is
not yet fully decided upon. Should
such report be made there will IN
doubtedly be strong efforts to defeat
the proposition, as the music for the
entire militia costs only some $2O,O
per year.
