How Morrissey Conciliated Colfax.

From the San Francisco Bulletin.
1t is related that when John Morrissey
was elected to Congress, and Colfax was
speaker, Morrissey, knowing Colfax's lik-
ing for good cigar, diffidently approach
ed the door of the speaker room in the
Capitol Building one day, but drew back
when he saw that number of other
members were inside At length, the
last visitor having departed, John timidly
ventured in. Colfax received him with
an open hand. " You like good cigars,
Mr.. Colfax?" blurted out bluntly Mr..
Morrissey Mr.. Colfax smiled, with an
affirmative motion of the head VIII
YOU please accept from me a box of the
very best Hayanas ever landed in this
country" st would delight me ex-
ceedingly, Mr.. Morrissey, to receive it. F"
"Ill send two of them to your house
this afternoon" "Oh, Mr.. Morrissey,
you are too generous" Mr.. Morrissey
played with his fingers awhile, and then
blurted out again: Mr.. Colfax | have
favor to ask of YOU" Colfax started,
alarmed, but said, And, pray, what is
it, Mr.. Morrissey?" Why, you are
just now making up your committees,
and | would like to have you, if you
will, put me on one where I'll have
nothing to do" Colfax, relieved, smiI.
ingly gave assurance that the desire
should be gratitied. And Mr.. Morrissey
was made chairman of the committee on
revolutionary pensions

Washington Life.

A cheerful view of Washington is
given in story once told by Mrs. Madi-
son, to little girl. who now repeats it
in LippincoH:
One day in Philadelphia" said Mis-
tress Dolly Madison, 81 was sitting in
my parlor with a very dear friend. Mrs
r. b. Lee, when in walked Payne Todd
Cher sony dressed in my calico bed-gown.
While we were laughing at the figure he
cut, servant threw open door, and an
nounced General and Mrs. Washington.
What to do with that dreadful boy | did
not know. He could not face the Presi-
dent in that garb. Neither could he
leave the room without meeting them.
for the door they were entering was the
only one. | made him crawl quickly
under low, broad settee on which was
sitting. | had just time to arrange the
drapery when the Washingtons entered.
After a courtly greeting, and the usual
compliments of the season, there came
from under the settee a heavy sigh, that
evidently attracted the generals notice.
However, | only talked and laughed a
little louder, hoping to divert his atten-
ton when-oh, mel-there came an out
cry and a kick that could not be ignored.
So stopped down and dragged Payne
out my the leg. Washington's dignity
left him for once. laugh Why he
fairly roared He nearly went into con-

gown, all so unexpected, coming wrong

Saving Winter Roots.

1t Is an erroneous opinion, although
usually considered otherwise, that roots
for winter keeping, as beets, turnipS
parsnips, carrots, satisfy, etc, are better
to have the crowns and portion of the
leaves left adhering. In just proportion
as these are left, will the Juices of the
bulbs or roots be dissipated. As they
begin to grow, which they will under
ordinary conditions in the winter. the
succulence of the root will be impaired
until ut last they become pithy, and
utterly worthless for household use. To
obyiate this, the crowns should be sew
cred as closel Y as possible. In preparing
beets for pitting, in the manufacture OF
sugar, the entire crown is cut away be-
low the leaves, since this portion con
tains no saccharine, and the growth of
leaves from the dormant eyes changes
the Saccharine juice of the beets, thus
impairing the yield of sugar. Never
theless the beets so cut, are preserved in
tact, a callous quickly forming over the
cut surface. From this an important
lesson is taught the farmer and gardener.
Bulbs and roots intended for long keep
ing, should be cut below the crown. In
the case of fat turnips the eye may be
seooped out. Then if packed in dry
sand or road dust, and kept nearly at the
freezing point, they remain intact until
late in the season, even we'll into May.
OF course this is not practicable when
large quantities are kept for market use.
Gardeners have other means that answer
the purpose measurably. For family
use however, it will be found to succeed
admirably, and is comparatively little
trouble Prairie Farmer.

Keeping Poultry in Orchards.

This is matter that should be prac-
tised when possible. We believe that if
farmers and fruit raisers knew the bene-
hts arising from such management they
would at once adopt it, Last fall we
visited an orchard in which fowls were
kept, the owner of which told us that
before the fowls were confined in it the
trees made little or no growth, and only
a corresponding amount of fruit was
obtained. But what a Change was evil
dent now. The grass was kept down.
the weeds killed, and the trees presented
an appearance of thrift, which the most
enthusiastic horticulturist could not but
admire and envy. The growth of the
trees was most vigorous, and their foliage
remarkably luXuriant The fruit was
abundant, of large size and free from
worm and other imperfections. This
excellence was accounted for by the pro-
prietor, who remarked that the hens ate
all the worms and curculio in their reach.
even the canker worm. He found less
trouble with their roosting in trees than
he expected, and that a picket fence six
feet high kept them within bounds. His
orchard was divided into three sections.
and the fowls were changed from one to
another, as the condition of the fowls or
the orchard section seemed to require

Nitrate of Soda on Wheat.

A writer in the London agricultural
Gazette says: My own experience this
year, from the use of J cwt. per acre of
nitrate of soda, used alone, was, | might
say marvellous. | took in hand a small
farm of seyenty-fve acres, which had
been in bad hands for some years-two
fields of respectively fourteen and thir-
teen acres, one all wheat, the other half
wheat and half winter oats Nothing
could have looked much worse than the
wheat during the winter, so in the spring
| sowed the nitrate on both fields, with
the exception of about three acres of
wheat, on which | put soda, which is
greatly used in this part of the country
West Hertsl. He had some refreshing
rain shortly after the nitrate was put on,
and in about a month the crops sprang
up, and there were no crops III our part
of the country, which looked better
about the beginning of July. The straw
was long, and the ears long and full; and
| hope to get good crop of both grain
and straw from these twenty-five acres
which have scarcely had any manure on
for some years, except this dressing of
nitrate, at the cost of about thirty shill-
ings per acre. With regard to the ques-
ton of nitrate destroying white clover, ]
can only say that | saw farm in Lanca-
shire the other day where a top dressing
of one cwt. of nitrate and three cwt. of
bones had been used as top-dressing on
oats and permanent grass seeds, and
never saw a greater promise of white
clover seed than was spring up. should
like to have some ones experience of top
dressing of che above mixture on pasture
land"
