SOWING NALNUTS AND HICKORIES.-
There are many persons desITOus OF
raising seedlings of walnut and other
hard-shelled seeds, who fail and wonder
V by they fail. The fault is often their
own. 1t is the practice of many TO
keep such seeds on the barn floor or drv
in barrels through the winter, sowing
them in the spring. Now we all know
that seeds OF the kind mentioned must
crack open before they grow, and some
know that it Is the moisture that does
this cracking. Moisture, then, is what
these seeds want, more or less. Some
have thought hat is the frost that cracks
open the shells, but frost is an injury
rather than otherwise, tending to dry
out the shells, the opposite of which is
desired. 1t is well to put ard-shelled
seeds in the ground in the fall, or keep
them in damp place through the win
Ter and then SOW in the spring, but
where neither Of these things have been
done, and the sowing is desired they Will
grow very well the coming season if put
INTO cold water until they have become
thoroughly soaked. Thus treated the
nuts will take up in few days as much
moisture as they would have done had
they been in the ground all winter and
this Is all they want to make them crack
their shells and grow. When it Is not
forgotten that moisture is the essential, :,
Seeding raising becomes much less of
a mystery.

to run and yell so much, getting his

he'd probably bring up to eighty-one.

A NICE OLD LADY FRGM OTSEGO.
She Gives a Critical Opinion Oh
Hunts Mural Pictures.
Albany Times.

Albany Times
The nice old lady from Otsego, with
her niece, Nancy, was in town on Satur-
day and visited the Assembly Chamber
when the members were all absent.
"You see," she said confidingly to the
reporter; 81 come down now oftener than
usual, cause Gil, my son-in-law, has got
place and 1 can stop to his boarding
place and see how he's treating my dar-
ter. There are the great picters L hear
about, eh%'
"Yes'm; those are Hunts greatest ef-
forts"
81 reckon yes. He must have had a
powerful long brush to reach up there.
I know that picture first thing. Seen
the chrome its TUX from-Washingto
Crossing the Delaware. We have one
up in the kitchen, hain't we, Nance?
That ere picture don't remember"
"Ihat, madame, is called the Flight
of Night 1t is considered a great
work, representing something Important
but lust what l don't know"
"'The Flight O Night 1 reckon it
re fers to the colored exodus from the
South"
After some further remarks, in which
the old lady protested as she counted the
gas standard, that there were too many
hatracks in the house, she withdrew, be-
cause, as Gil told her, if she was around
the Legislature much some of the repor-
ters would put her in the papers.

A Horse that Enjoyed a Joke.
ECaliforJl ism

Horses have sense and a very fair un-
derstanding of what fun is. l had one
once that objected seriously to being
caught up again after he had been
turned into pasture, and he would give
all the trouble he possibly could. If l
took a halter and attempted to catch
him he would let ME come quite close to
him, but Just as I was about to throw
the straps around his neck he would
lower his head and throw up his heels
and dart off, looking back to see whether
followed. After his repeating this
maneuver half dozen times I would
turn to leave in disgust and walk
rapidly away. Then compunetion al
ways seized the horse, and he would
come trotting up behind me, set his
teeth carefully in the sleeve of my dress
and Jerk it, as much as to say, ''There,
can't you take joke? I was only in fun,
and Pm ready to come with you now."
And it takes only so short time to
make a horse love you and lose all fear
of you. At one time l was acquainted
with a horse in Alemeda whose reputa-
ton for gentleness did not equal his
beauty. He was large, handsome bay;
and when first approached his Keeper
big, burly English hostler-with the
purpose of tanning the horse, and with
handful of sugar, he refused to let me
60 near him. "Couldn't allow it no
ways Miss" he said; |'that 'orse would
bite your 'and right off if you 'eld it out
to him with the sugar" : persevered
however. The horse didn't "bite my
'and right off," but took his sugar like
lamb; and in less than two weeks from
that time he would whinny and paw
the ground with impatience if he
heard my voice in the stable and did not
come directly to him. To be sure. he had
nearly squeezed me to death against the
side of the stall; but it was sheer good
will and affection, not viciousness; for
William, who had hurried up, pale and
scared, stood speechless to see that he
neither struck at nor bit me.
