KNEW WHEN TO QUIT.-"I think may
be excused for a little show ofpride in saying
that knew when to quit Wall street, he
observed, us an elevated train carried them
over that great thoroughfare.
80 you used to speculate eh?"
Eyes, was on the street for seven years"
"Made your pile, supposeg"
"Yes, made aud lost money, the same as
the rest. At one time could draw my check
for $4,000, and that is not so bad for man
who went into Wall street with only $40 in
his pockets"
"And you knew when to quit?"
"Yes, sir"
"That was when-when ?"
"That was when l had enough left to pay
my fare to Elmira and hire boy to carry my
satchel up tony father-in-law's house." was
the quiet reply.

CANT IT HoT"-James Craig, who keeps
toll bridge in Virginia, has escaped fright
full death by the exercise of his inventive
faculties During the recent hot weather
every one who stopped at the bridge to pay
the toll thoughtlessly observed, "aint it hot%
In addition to the wear and tear of his ears,
Mr.. Craig soon discovered that his voice was
growing feeble, for the exclamation being
couched in the form of n question, courtesy
required that an answer should be returned.
Having kept count for several days he found
that the interrogation was uttered and an
swered 725 times daily on the average, and he
perceived that he should soon talk himself to
death. He therefore determined, while rea-
son yet remained, to avert the impending
catastrophe. He accordingly painted and
hung up in plain view sign which reads =
Eyes, it is very hot" Now when a traveller
pulls up at the bridge, Mr.. Craig simply
points to the sign with one hand while he
takes the toll with the other.

Under american Farmer, Baltimore
BoorHBY HILL, HARTFORD Co., Md,
Gentlemen! have used your Silicated Phosphate
for the last four years upon my Egyptian Sweet
Corn, Trophy Tomatoes, Lima Beans and Pota-
toes and can truly say have never found any
other Phosphate to equal it.
1t produces the largest crops, makes irmer fruit
and of better flavor, than any other kind
On account of its fine mechanical condition, alb
sence of moisture and odor it is easily distributed
and pleasant to handle.
| used twenty-five tons upon my Sweet Corn
the past season, and never had larger or finer
yield. Yours, truly,
S.N. HYDE.
PORT DEPOSIT, MD, January 4, 1881.
MIR. JOHN +. MARSHALL:
Dear Sh-This is to certify that have used the
Popplein Silcated Phosphate bought of you for
two years past on my entire range of truck, and
the results have been highly satisfactory. 1t is
decidedly the best fertilizer l ever used, and
have used several standard brands. have tested
1t beside good compost from my hen-house, and
find where used the Popplein my crops mature
better and the vines especially tomatoes bear
much longer, and the fruit is OF a superior quail
ty. Where used it on cabbage they were twice
as large as where there was none put Another
that can put my plants or seed in the same hill
with the phosphate without any injury to the
plant or seed. This have tried to perfection.
very truly, JOSEPH STEBBING.
DELAWARE COLLEGE EXPERIMENTAL FARM,

P0pplein Siicated Phosphate CO,Rpany:
uentleIncH- nave useu your ertlllZerf Tor Tour
years past on the entire range of field and garden
crops, and always with the most satisfactory re-
Suits
l have found it especially adapted to the growth
of potatoes and Sugar BEES, and my crop last sea-
son of over twelve hundred bushels of these roots
was grown with this fertilizer, and their quality
may be inferred from the fact that, in a strong
competition, received six first premiums at the
last fair of the Peninsula Agricultural and P0-
biological Association for the largest and best dis
play of root crops. The splendid mechanical con-
diton In which your Fertilizer is furnished, and
its uniform quality, as determined by annual
analysis in the State Laboratory of Delaware
College, render 1t most valuable to our farmers
and fruit-growers Yours, respectfully,

Let Your colt be domesticated and
live with you from his tenderest ace.
and when a horse he will be simple
docile, faithful, and Injured to hardship
and fatigue
De not beat your horses nor speak to
them in a loud tone of voice; do not get
angry with them, but kindly reprove
their faults; they will do better there
after, for they understand the languages
OF naan-and their meaning.
If You have long days Journey be-
fore You spare your horse at the start;
let him frequently walk to recover his
wind, Continue this until he has sweat
ed and dried three times and Won NAV
ask him whatever YOU please, he will
not leave you in difficulty.
Observe your horse when he is drink
ing at brook. If in bringing down his
he al he remains square, without bend
ing his limbs, he possesses sterling
qualities, and all parts Of his body are
built svmehically
-Four things he must have broad
front, chest loins and limbs; four things
long-neck, chest forearm and eroup:
four things -pasterns, back. ears and
tail.

The horse, although it looks straight
forward much more than most animals
yet does not do nearly as much rs man,
and therefore requires in it's habitation
am arrangement Of light quite different
from that in its owners dwelling. Give
the horse the hight from one side only
and 1t will direct only one of its eyes to
it, but the other eve will be in the
shade; this inequality weakens both
eyes. Put il in such position that it
looks into the dark, which is certainly
unnatural, and when taken out of the
stable the abrupt change from darkness
to light Will harm it. Toplace it straight
against the light gives the latter blind
ing effect which is also injurious to the
eyes. The horse stable should there
fore always receive the light from above.

windows placed near the ceiling in the
wall to which the animals head Is turned
