A SMART OLD DUcK.-In a mill
pond summer duck has made a
nest in a hollow tree twenty feet
above the water, in which she de-
posts her eggs. Last week the lit
tie ducklings appeared, and then
the question troubled the mother
duck as to how to get her young
brood from her exalted nest. She
was seen to fly down from the hol-
low stump to the water and back
again, as if measuring the distance.
Then she brought out one Of the
ducklings in her bill and let it fall.
1t struck the water and was perfect
ly safe. This she repeated until the
whole five were in this way trans
terred from their eyrie to the wa
ter where they made known their
great joy by vociferous quack-
ing.

ARAB HUMoR:-A story is told
of Ell Mehdi, that being out hunt

it with a bottle of wine. The Cal

brother of the Arabs! do you know

ants of the Commander of the

the Arab reminded him that he had

Il wish youjoy," said the Arab.
After a third glass, the Caliph a.

80, brother of the Arabs! do you
know who | am!"
"You say You are one of the
Commders Of the Faithfurs chief
officers" answered the Arab.
"Not 500, said Ell Mehdi, 81

The Arab, on hearing this, quiet

HAY MAKING.

AS the season Of hay making
approaches, one of the prominent
questions which arises is the best
time to cut the grass. This ques-
ton should be decided according
to the best interest of each individ-
ual farmer. Some varieties of
grass will bear earlier and more
frequent cutting than others, and
seem to do all the better, in a ser
les Of years. Grasses like timothy,
which renews itself by annual for
nation of bulbs, for the best result
of several seasons, must be allowed
to complete maturity, and perfect
seed. Cutting down the stems be-
fore the plant has come to maturi-
ty, shortens the life of the plant,
as the bulbs require certain a.
mount of nutriment to be returned
from the stalks and leaves. and
this is always done after maturity;
never before. The point indicat-
ing completion of nutrition is indi-
Gated by dryness Of the stem near
the crown of the bulb. When
these indications appear, the seeds
are fully developed, and ripen full
ly as the ripening of the stem
ascends. After this first appear
ance cutting ceases to iniure, for
the bulbs have received all neces-
sary nutriment for their renewal
and prolongation Of the plant. If
the grass be cut before thus matur-
ed, nutrition is arrested, proper
growth ceases, and an effort to re-
pair injury is made by sending out
small bulbs which produce only
weak and unhealthy stalks, and the
plant ultimately succumbs from
drouth, cold or other natural
cause.
Timothy left to take its natural
course. remains fresh and green
during winter, but this green por-
ton should never be severed by
any close cutting or grazing, or the
life of the plant is sacrificed.
Most kinds of grasses are not in
jured SO easily, and may be cut at
an caller stage without injury to
the plant. Grass cut when in full
bloom, makes as good hay tor feed
ing and fatting purposes as at any
stage, according to my observation,
if We except timothy; that | have
found most fattening when cut
after the maturity Of the seed.
The proper curing and saving ofhay
is Of as much importance as the
time Of cutting, for unless proper
ly done it matters little at what
stage the grass is cut after the seed
stem shoots. For my part | am
in favor of saving and storing hay
in tight barns in as green a state
as possible to save it and not have
it blacken by heating. To do this
little of the hot, burning sun rays
should be allowed on it when
spread after cutting. 1t will sur
prise many old style farmers how
green hay may be put in the NOW,
in tight barn, when cut while the
grass is not wet, and thus cured.

THESE two items, printed in jux-
Imposition in an exchange, appear
to be a case of cause and effect, viz:
Mayor Kalloch of San Francisco
has arrived in New York and will
lecture" "There is great rush OF
New Workers to Europe" We
should think there would be.

A TYPICAL NEW MEXICAN.

Top boots, trousers, a blue fan-
mel shirt and loose coat were ordi-
nary enough, but his head was sur
mounted with a gray sombrero that
in width of brim has never been
equaled save by the pretty chorus
singer Of "Pinafore" and the "Pi-
rates.. The hat sat back on his
head until the brim covered his
shoulders, and the cord and orna-
ments Of the crown, being Of solid
gold wire and spangles, brings the
value of this extravagant head-gear
MP to $3.50. Neither Aimee and
Georgette Virot or the other con-
sostors of French bonnets ever sent
out a spring bonnet that equaled
this sombrero in price. He wore
careless knoted necktie and row
of big gold nuggets for shirtstuds,
and below them swung watch
chain composed of gold coins rang
ing from the largest slugs and $50
pieces down to an insignificant
50. 80 coin. The watch at the end
Of the chain is heavy enough to use
for weapon, with its massive cases
of gold. This walking gold mine
carries off all his magnifcence with
the most Indifferent and half con-
temptuous air. On occasion he is
said to be capable of even more
gorgeousness; and when this show
figure of Santa Fe is mounted on a
little black horse, rafting with all
the silver and blazing with all the
colors of Mexican trappings, it is
enough to dazzle one. With huge
silver spurs, an embroidered buck
skin suit, belt full ofsilver noun
ted weapons, and fringed and en-
broidered blanket strapped to the
saddle, he skaters through these
narrow streets quite as the wild
western heroes do in novels.

thilty-seven feet of everything.

A SIGNIFICANT FACT.

The cheapest medicine in use is Thorn.
as Electric Oil, because so very little OF
it is required to effect cure. For Group
diphtheria, and diseases of the lungs and
throat, whether used for bathing the
chest or throat, for taking internally OF
inhaling, it is matchless compound.
