AMERICAN WOODS IN A u"
TUInN.

An article in the Rochester even
ing Express, thus enumerates the con
stituents of that splendor of colorlnG
which distinguishes the woods of our
country in October. The description
NAV serve as hints to those who are
setting out ornamental trees:
Those who have journeyed on the
Erie Railway between this city and
Livonia can hardly have failed to no
tice belt of woods beginning three
or four miles from Avon anc extend
ing considerable way toward Llvon'
ia. Some distance up the woods, In
plain view Of the car windows, a pref
ty stream chafes and .frets over its
pebbly bed, there hiding itself for a
short space in the verdure Of the for
est, and here emerging again to kiss
the sunlight and renew its babbllng
at ones feet. There is no prettler bit
of sylvan scenery than this stretch Of
woodland.
Exquisite as is the quiet landscape
in summer, it only reveals its enti'e
beauty in October. The forest lies to
the westward, and whether owing to
its particular exposition where it
catches the sunshine during nearly
the entire day, or some pecullarprop-
critics of the soil or other impercepti-
Bile cause, the foliage in the full flush
of its autumnal splendor presents the
finest piece Of coloring that eye ever
rested upon. THERE'S nothing like it
for miles around. With the warm
October sunshine upon the trees they
rival the most brilliant opal in rides
cence ; naples of every shade of or
ange, scarlet, green and gold; tie
dogwood's gay banners Of llvliest pink
and vermlion the glossy amber Of
the beech the hickory's yellows, the
claret and russell Of the oak, and an
occasional fiery sumac in the lower
ground, they make a mass Of such
gorgeous coloring as can be seen nc
where in America, and render this
particular spot one Of glorious rich
ness and beauty.
Ferns, lichens, MOSES, and trailing
plants of every description carpet tie
ground-a very wade mecum Of beau
tiful growing things. Here thrive
great clumps of ferns, the Dicksonia,
with its feathery foliage, and the dark
wax-like leaves of the Asplenium.-
The passing breeze lifts the delicate
tufts of the maideuhair, borne on its
slender stem; the Aspidium flourish
es in lush profusion, while the ground
is literally starred with 'star-vine,
the most delicate and graceful Of
trailing plants indigenous to our
woods. Through all the riffs Of the
trees the mellow autumn sunlight
comes streaming and sitting in broad
golden shafts of light

GETTING READY FOR WIN
# SC TER.

Many farmers defer such precau-
tons until injury and loss have pun
isbed their decay. In this cold and
cbapgeable climate, it shows a sad
lack of forethought and economy to
neglect such repairs and improve
ments as will secure proper shelter
during tie rigors Of winter for the
farmers own family, his stock and
the crops he las gathered. A board
off, or pane o. glass out, here and
there, may cause long doctors bill,
the loss of a young animal, or of a
part of the potatoes, roots, or apples,
and Of the labor and money bestowed
on their cultivation. Moreover, If
the places where animals are kept in
winter are cold, windy or damp, a
large proportion of the food that
would otherwise contribute to the In
crease of the bulk Of the carcass, or to
the yield of milk in the case of mllch
cows,ris diverted from these purposes
in order to make good the waste in
notwithstanding the severe demands
for animal heat. Experiments have
proved that for an animal exposed to
the cold, from one fourth to one-thlrd
more od:.is..required to maintain the
proper degree of animal heat stha"
for one protected from the elements
by suitable shelter. TO provide prop
err protection against inclement wealth
err for the animals on the farm is,
therefore, to consult economy quite as
much as humanity. -RuraI New lo'-

A TERRIBLE AND STRANGE OUTRAGE
SacTumento, Sep. 27.-About noon to-day

Capt. Hodgeson on the river bank opposite

RHEUMATISM AMONG FARMERS. There
is great deal too much carelessness gen.
orally among farmers with regard even to
ordinary precautions for the preservation
of their health, and yet after all, there is
scarcely any class to whom sickness is more
irksome and inconvenient. rheumatism
is frequent among them because they
wear wet clothing, heat and suddenly
chill the body, over-eat after very hard
work, and because they do not keep the
skin in a healthy condition If farmers
would avoid suddenly cooling the body
after great exertion, if they would be
careful not to go with wet clothing and
wet feet, and if they would not Overeat
when In an exhausted condition, and
bathe daily, using much friction, they
would have less rheumatism.
