THE FARM AND GARDEN.
Conducted by veteran Northwestern Agriculturist
BuckthOrn Hedges,

The Buckthorn is us hardy in this
State as the oak. In time we expect
most OF the line fences in Minnesota
will be composed of buckthorn. The
plant will grow from the seed, which
should be treated precisely in the same
manner us apple seed-that is, mixed
sand in autumn as soon as gathered and
washed out; exposed to the weather
in winter, and planted early in spring
as soon as sproutin commences, or be.
fore. Perhaps exposure to the wealth
er IS not essential.

The Nsme.is Of the had BOYS in
Gold llili.

Since John Y. Paul entered upon
the performance Of his duties ~ q
truant officer. the boys around Gold
Hill. who have been in the habit OF
playing Rookie. have u hard time OF it.
At tirst they thought the appointment OF
an officer was merely a bluff to scare
them into going to school. but rs n
after another was watched and captured
fear began to take possession OF their
souls, and now all that is necessary to
strike terror I o the heart Of a truant Is
to whisper the lame Of John y. in his
ear.
Some OF the more hardened cases have
been in the habit OF slipping away from
their homes and stealing a ride Oh the
cars to Virginia. Until within the past
day or two their glory on getting back
was to loaf around the depot in this
town anil play marbles, or when other
sources failed amuse themselves by pelt-
ing passing Cinnamon with snowbalis'
John Y. has been on the lookout Tor
them, and now those having the courage
to 60 TO Virginia are very cars'uito have
n sharp lookout for their enemy on re-
turning. Some very exciting races DC
cur ut the depot. the boys duekine out
Of sight and taking to their heels like
frightened rats. whenever their foo APP
pears.
Yesterday John took n trip to Lower
Gold Hill. aud captured three truants;
lie took them to their homes, and read
the Law to their parents, who promised
that they would hereafter comply with
it. Certainly no filter or more visilan'
man than Paul could have been APP
pointed to the positions; and II he but
holds |, for a few months. his name in
the vocabulary OF tho Gold Hill youth
will be "a synonym Of terror.

HE LEAP YEAH nALL.
The Event Of h Day and Year
Amsns she Gold Hill Ladies.


The leap year ball. which comes of
ut Miners Union Hall in this town to-
night, will doubtless 10 q success in all
particulars, il good management can
SECURE such a desirable end. The ladies'
OF Gold Hill imagine they can learn
their neighbors over the Divide n few
things about the way u leap year ball
ought to be conducted. III the
latter place the fair sex goes around
aud i%mportunes men and wo-
men TO buy tickets, while here
not one man has ever boen asked
to purchase. There the ladiss talk OF
inveigling tho gentlemen to put their
coats and hats in an ante-room. from
which they cannot be recovered until
the neat little sum Of SO 80 is forked
over into the hands OF the fair mana
gers; here no such foul tricks will be
played on the unwary. the ladies scorn-
ing to a part which they arc not
prepared to play out TO the end.
In order to give all the gentlemen who
desire a chance to 60. the ladies who are
not m~ortally afraid OF offending q jeal-
Gus lover. have invited all tho way from
two TO five gentlemen to accompany
them. 1t can be- readily inferred from
this that none but invited guests will be
admitted. not even excluding reporters.
Tho latter We look upon as a dangerous
trsspass on time-honored privileges. and
had we the courage the fair despots
should be roundly scored by US before
the ball. However. 1t may DO well to
| hold all abuse in reserve until after II
comes of, and then-well. time will toll.
We are not authorized to state that
carriages will DO provided for tho ac-
commodation Of gentlemen who are
aysrse to soiling their boots; but, doubt
less, the hint here conveyed, will DO
sufficient TO Indicate tho proper course.
| Ladies' are noted for their intuitivo per.

enough TO give them the u . A
splendid ball supper, which il to DO
given AT the vesey House. will consti-
tuts quite an important feature. OF the
occasion.
Some Of the old bachelors, who have
been on their good behavior for a week
past in hopes OF getting an invitation,
look wonderfully improved in appear
anee, aud II no further good is accom-.
plished by the ball. this itself is not to
DO despissd; but who knows what sad
hearts may be ~gladdened and desolate
lives made to bloom and blossom and
bear fruit. simply because Of this leap
year ball.
