People can always depend on getting the proper

are led to think they get Hats only in certain

Preparing Cuttings.
Prairie Farmer.l


Before cold weather comes on, cuttings OF
gooseberry, currant, grapevine, cottonwood,
willow-in fact, anything that will grow
from cuttings-should be prepared for
spring. In the case of vine cuttings, make
them of short jointed wood, three eyes long.
All others may be cut to uniform length
of about eight inches. Tie them in neat
punches of 25 or 50, not tightly, placing the
butts all one way. Stand them on their
bottoms in q row and cover with earth,
throwing it on them until a sharp ridge is
formed. Thus they may stand until plant
ing time in the spring. when they may be
placed in nursery rows, the cuttings six
inches apart in the row, and kept clean.
At the end of one, or at most two years,
they will be ready for transplanting where
they are finally to stand. Thus prepared,
we have had them nicely calloused by
spring, and in some instances roots were
ready TO be formed.
In planting, the operator must be governed
by the nature of the shoot. Grape cuttings
should be set so that only one eye is above
ground, Set other cuttings SO that two eyes
will appear above ground. In planting it is
absolut ly necessary that the earth should
be quite irm about the lower part of the
cutting For this, as one reason, 1t is usual
to. set them somewhat slanting. Another
advantage IN favor of planting cutting slant
wise is, that they are supposed to root more
freely than when planted vertically, and for
the reason that thus q greater surface is ex-
posed to tle heat near the surface of the
earth.

Strangles in Horses.

SaQQIGS-DWyGI,l
Most persons conversant with horses must
be aware that certain glands lie just under
the angles of the two jaws, and run mp in
the direction of the ear. They are the seat
of the affection peculiar to young animals
known under the name of strangles. Now,
it is by no means lnfreQuent, especially
among the commonar kind OF horses, to find
these glands large and flabby in their text
ures. With well bred and we'll formed
animals it is often very difficult to find
them at all under the skin. Sometimes the
abnormal sizs of these glands is evidently
constitutional, sometimesit is a CO sequence
of dsease-strangles, for instance-and
sometimes it arises wholly from the pressure
of the angles of the jaws. especially when
these lie too close together, and the rider or
driver has attempted to force q certain
position, either by the use of severe bits, or,
what is still worse, q combination of these
with the bearing rein in harness. If s0ch q
state of things be overlooked or neglected
very serious consequences may arise. The
forced pressure of the jawbone on these
glands is sometimes perfectly excruciatiDg
to the animal, and it has recourse to the
great establishment of its ignorant rider or
driver, to all sorts of expedients to get rid
of the intolerable pain. Il will refuse its
work, or run away, or throw itself down, OF
rear up. or do anything or every thing In its
desperation, and the brute on its back or on
the coach box knows no other remedy for II
than ITO fog the sulk out of him." whereas
the whole thing is probably the result OF
bad biting and bridling.

Dividing a Kitten.
WAYNE Press,I

A lady contributor tells this story: 81
had been out In Westchester county on q
visit and while there / found kitten
which / brought home as plaything for
my two children. To prevent any dispute
about the ownership of puss. proposed,
and 1t YVES agreed, that the head should be
mine, the body should be the baby's, and
Eddy, the eldest, but three years old. should
be toe sole proprietor of the long and beau
tifcl tail. Eddy rather objected to this
division ut first as putting him OF with an
extreme small share of the animal but soon
became reconciled u the division and quite
proud of his ownership. One dsy soon after
/ heard poor puss making q dreadful new
ing. and called out to Eddy: There. my
son, you are hurting my part Of the kitten;
heard her crys No, I didn't. mother;
trod on mypart. and your part hollered.' F"

A Plain Man.
detroit Free Press


The Woodward avenue car going north at
IL o'clock yesterday forenoon overlook a
man with a hand trunk of ancient make
walking in the middle OF the street He
inquired IL the car went to the railroad
track, and then got aboard. There were
several passengers in the car, and as he stood
in the door he looked from one to the other,
and said:
III am intruding don't hesitate to tell
me so. 1 like people who speak right out,
and | am use d to plain talk"
No one objected, and he took a seat,
crossed his legs, and said to himself:
'rll bet they never butt this car for less
than $50I I'm glad the old woman isn't
here. If shs should see how it's fixed up
she'd never let up on me till tackled one to
the house. I'll never ride on a wood wagon
again when l can jog along in chariot like
this. It's got more windows than bee hive,
and wouldn't dare spit on the floor If was
dying to spill"
As he made no move to pay his fare the
driver rang the bell.
s'Got bells on here eb?' unused the plain
man. Nov who'd s-thoughs they'd have
gone to such an expense as thatl Folks here
in town are right on the style, no matter
what it costs"
The driver rang again and again, and seq
ing that it did no good he finally opened the
door and said:
You man 10 the corner there-you didn't
pay your fare"
MY farel Why, that's so! Hanged If
hadn't forgotten all about It. Were you
ringing that bel for me?''

''That's too bad Why didn't you open
that door long ago and say to me: Here
you old potato top, if you don't pass up your
ducats Tll land you in the mud Pm q

The prospects for barley and oats are sad in
