still more prolific and successful. The ami

The Adventures of Two Men With {
Bear.
From the Charlcstown (Va.) Heral

From the CharIcSt0wn (Na.) Herald.
On Thursday last young man named
Mcdonald, belonging to Gays River,
had a narrow escape from being devoured
by bear in the woods near his home
He was walking through the woods,
when he heard a rustling sound behind
him. Turning around he saw a large
sized she-bear coming toward him. He
had just time to spring for the nearest
tree and climb up it. The bear sprang
at him, and catching one of his feet with
her paw tore off the shoe and stocking
and badly larcerated the flesh. Melon
aid manged to crawl out on a limb,
whittier the bear attempted to follow,
but the limb was too narrow. Fooled OF
its prey, the bear tore savagely at the
bark ON the limb, while Mcdonald, hold
ing on bp his hands, screamed Justify fo1
help. A man near by, hearing his cries
approached just as the bear dropped
from the tree Mcdonald called out to
the newcomer to look out for the bear,
and at that moment the savage animal
rushed at the man, who nimbly climbed
into the same tree, followed by the bear
The newcomers only safety was to get
out on the same limb as Mcdonald, and
the bear, too, crawled out. Under the
weight the limb broke, and bear and men
fell distance of some twenty feet. For
tunately, the bear was stunned by the
fall, and the men, though badly shaken
were able to get away. Obtaining arms,
which they were entirely without. they
returned to the place, but the bear could
not be found

fields, which producing too little hay for
profit. The land has been ploughed in
the autumn, after the hay crop was
secured. Then it is narrowed fine and
smooth, during the leisure between har-
yesting and other work. Before winter
the soil may be made to look almost like
an old field, provided the ploughing and
narrowing is thoroughly done. Manure
of some kind is applied before the ground
freezes, and if convenient is cultivated
lightly into the soil.
Early in spring, as soon as the soil is
dry enough to work well, it is cultivated
thoroughly and sowed to oats, at the rate
of from four to five bushels per acre. Il
the grain is small, four bushels may be
enough, but otherwise five would be bet
ter. This would give straw nearly as fine
as ordinary stout timothy. 1t is easily
cured, and, when cut early and well
cured, makes hay that is better than
timothy and red top, which are allowed to
stand till dead ripe. We have had near
ly five acres of such oats this season,
most of which have been grown upon
green-sward, and the result has been
quite equal to our highest anticipations.
Two fields were MANFRED with Brighton
fertilizers applied in the fall, after the
ground froze, and left exposed during the
winter, and with no perceptible los. from
such exposure. even though upon land
somewhat subject to washing. More
labor is required for growing such crops
than for cutting the hay upon old run
out fields, but from our experience we
should claim that such labor pays.
1t would seem that land producing two
or three crops of grain straw in season,
each being fairly MANFRED and the stub
BILE pioughed in, must be gaining in fer
tlllty 1t certainly improves in mechani-
cal condition, being light and exceedingly
mellow. We doubt if oats, as fodder
crop, are yet appreciated according to
their real merits.-Neao England Farmer.

Dirtiness of War.

A Danube correspondent says that
one of his hopes that all war will soon
end is that as people become more civ
ilized the dirtiness of it will become un-
endurable:
What characteristics an army in the
field above everything else is dirt. One
IS clothed in it, one eats it, drinks it,
smells it. Officers who once were doub
less brilliant as butterflies in uniform,
spotless as the lily of the field, become
draggled, stained, and rusty. Their
coats have holes, their boets are patched.
As for the soldiers, they are simply
filthy. You will meet them more ragged
than the poorest Irish laborer, and those
who were once snowy white of vesture
have fallen to the lowest depth of dark
ness. As for some further details of the
sort which | must not dwell on, hint
should suffice-eyerybody cuts his hair
as short as scissors will do it before en-
tering on campaign.
A moment arrives, after no long time,
when soldier servants give up washing in
despair, and accept all the dirt that comes
to them. Then they cease to observe
whether their masters things are clean
or not, despise the humble duty of wash
ing cups and plates and forks, ignore the
use of soap, and all that civilization has
laboriously impressed upon the mental
instinct. They return to the customs
of primeyal man, and we follow of ne
cessity. Thus forks and spoons are ig-
nored at an early stage, plates and dishes
somewhat later. At this very moment
a grimy wretch, upon whose hand one
might plant mustard seed with reason
able hope, is employed beside me in cut
ting up sugar. He has brought forth a
snowy lump and butchers knife, and
upon the bare earth he is hacking off
chips These he collects and ranges in a
greasy tin box, popping each alternate
lump into the black cavern of his mouth.
All is done with the foul fingers, upon
the native soil, between whiffs of tobacco;
and no one protests; the greater number
do not even observe such things now
We are all so conscious of dirt, so re-
signed and hopeless about it, that a little
more or less is not worth disputing |
shall not linger upon this theme. Let
your readers turn up the page of Lon
don Labor and London Poor" in which
the dens of St. Giles are described, and
the way of life IN that quarter. The
manners and customs pictured there are
not so filthy as those we necessarily
adopt. This army is but little worse
than others. War itself is foul. There
are more wounded die of dirt than of
lead or iron.
