A Dogs Memory.

There Is a well known story of mur-
derer being discovered by a dog hyins
at his throat and bearing him to the
ground, when he confessed that ne had
murdered the animals IN ster. The story
is matched by one told in Load and Water
of Nelson, q black spaniel.
One night the dog was missing from
his favorite corner, and nothing for sever
al weeks could be heard of him, not
withstanding the most searching in
quirles. After the family had retired to
rest, one miserable winter night, the we'll
known bark of old Nelson was heard at
the door,
He was soon admitted to the COW
quarters, supplied with food, which he
ate with many a grateful wag of his tail,
and looked mere bag of bones in com
parison with his former self, besides be-
ing very lame
a neighbor came IN and inquired if
Nelson had arrived, as he met him on
the previous day at Macclesfield, eighteen
miles from Manchester. The driver of
the mail-cart had also seen him at Derby.
and gave him feed of milk and oat-
cake, but could not induce Nelson 10 re-
main with him or with the hOstler of the
inn where he baited.
Some time after the dog came home.
the owner of Nelson, called at "a public.
house in the neighborhood, having with
him his four-footed and faithful friend
and companion.
a sturdy, surly looking man stood at
the bar, and to the surprise and alarm of
everybody, Nelson sprang at the throat
of the stranger, striking his teeth through
the waistcoat, and holding son with the
utmost tenacity.
With a strong effort, Nelson's owner
released the man, who confessed tneis
and then that the cause of the dogs an
ger arose from the fact that che was the
man who stole him, took him to london
by the canal boat, where he sold him and
left him." The dog must, therefore
have travelled from London to Manches,

The scarcity of Qu,nces.

Within few years past the ounce trees
have been attacked by worm, just under the
surface OF the ground, somewhat similar in
appearance and in its effects 10 the peach
worm, and not being properly attended to and
the worms removed, the trees have generally
died, and the fruit accordingly disappeared
from all our markets. The ounce can be
just as successfully grown rs the peach, if q
little care is taken to head off its principal
enemy, the worm at the root, which requires
fall in removing the earth from around the
stem OF the tree, probe for the grub in his
hole in thu bark with a stiff wire, and filing
up around the tree with wood ashes or Stacked
lime. The cheap gas-lime, from the gas
works, is very effectual remedy for worms
in peach trees, and it would no doubt answer
the same purpose around the quince.-

+ Gentleness an Handling. Not even the COW

any OF our domestic animals, but the sheep

Improbable Investment that farmer can
make. They are continually, getting them
selves into some trouble, and causing great
annoyance, If not loss to their owner We

to death, but suffered great injury otherwise.
4 sheer, should never be caught or lifted by
the wool. Some one has said that if any one
doubts the improperly of lifting sheep by
the wool, let him permit himself to be lifted
by the hair, and it is a good suggestion. When
sheep are thus caught or lifted, the skin in
some instances is actually torn from the
flesh, and If the injury is not to that extent,
it cannot but affect the flesh to some degree
Sheep should be lifted by placing the arms
around the body and near the forelegs This
is the easiest way to do, especially with large
sheep. TO catch the animal, the hands should
be thrown about the neck, or else the sheep
should be caught by the hind leg Immediately
above the hook. This latter may be done
with the hand or the crook, and when this
way is adopted the utmost gentleness should
be observed, and the sheep gently drawn
back until the other hand can reach the neck
1t is scarcely necessary to remind the keeper
that when the crook is used upon sheep
which is closely surrounded by other sheep,
that great care must be exercised lest the
other sheep jump against the one caught or
against the crook, in which case severe dam
age may be done. = Western Rural ,..

From the journal OF Chemistry
The health and comfort Of horses have OF
late years been greatly improved by the bet
ter construction Of stables. They are made
more roomy and lofty, and provided with
means of thorough ventilation. In many new
stables lofts are done away with, or the floor
of the loft is kept well above the horses
heads, and ample shafts are introduced to con.
yey away foul air. By perforated bricks and
gratings under the managers, and elsewhere
round the walls, and also by windows and
ventilators, abundance of pure air is secured
for the horses; while being introduced in
moderate amount, and from various directions
it comes in without draught. Too much ali
is almost an unknown stable luxury To Sc
cure constant supply of pure air, horses re.
quire more cubic space than they generally
enjoy. Even when animals are stabbed only
at night, q minimum of 1900 cubic feet
should be allowed In England the newer
cavalry barracks give minimuurof | 500 cubic
feet with ground area of fully 90 square
feet per horse; and the best hunting and car.
