rains. extra caution should be taken to
protect fruit trees and shrubs against
mice. The methods we have often de-
cribed, such as banking earth around
the trees; tramping the snow hard about
the trunks as it falls; putting tarred
paper 4 to 6 inches above ground and
a little below, etc.-A7neric011 AgTGcUI-

Few fully appreciate how much
freezing of the ground does to set at lib
erty the plant food locked up in almost
all soils. Water, in freezing, expands
about one-eighth Of it's bulk, and with
tremendous force. Water, If confined in
the strongest rock and frozen, will burst
it asunder. The smallest particles of
soil, which are in fact only minute bits
of rock, as the microscope will show, If
frozen while moist are broken still finer.
This will go on all winter in every part
of the field or garden reached by the
frost; and as most soils contain more or
less elements that all growing plants or
crops needs, a good freezing is equiva-
lent to adding manure OF fertilizers.
Hence it is desirable to expose as much
of the soil as possible to frost action, and
the deeper the better, for the lower soil
has been less drawn upon, and is richer
in plant food. Turn up the soil this
month wherever practicable. Ii thrown
into ridges and hollows, in field and gar
den, the frost will penetrate SO much
deeper. Further, blowing or spading
the soil now exposes insects and weed
roots to killing by freezing. Still
further, soils thrown up loosely will dry
out earlier in the spring, and admit ear
ier working, which often great gain
when day or two may decide in favor of
a successful crop.

An Interesting Invalid.

Il L0uuOn dlODt.
The Naca,lchfe,, Of Basic adds new
anecdote to the rich collection Of Ger
man stork-tales During one Of the
great storms Of the present year, the
lightning struck a barn in the village Of
Lowenberg, and stork's nest, In
which there were some young stork-
lings, was threatened by the flames.
The two parent birds contemplated the
horrible situation from distance, with
evident distress. At last the mother
bird darted down upon the nest, and,
seiziQg one Of her young family with
her beak, bore it off to a safe spot upon
meadow. The father followed her,
and settled down to keep watch over his
offspring. When the mother returned
to the scene of danger the fire had
reached the nest, in which one bird still
remained; but while she was flying
around it, preparing for descent, the
young fell through the charred nest
into the burning barn. II was no mo-
ment for thought. Down darted the
mother into the smoke and fire. and,
coming up with her SprOSSliag in her
beak, flew off, apparently unhurt.
On the next day wounded stork fell
to the market place in the neighboring
town of Trebbin. She was unable to
stand, and the policeman of the little
town carried her into the guard house,
where it was discovered that both her
legs were sorely burned, and she was
recognized as the heroic mother who
had done the brave feat of rescue at the
fire in Lowenberg A physician was
sent for, and the burgomaster found
her temporary hospital in the Rathaus.
Meanwhile, the spouse of the sick She
stork had discovered her whereabouts.
He attended diligently TO the young
ones, and paid daily visits to the moth
er, as if to inform himself how the pa
tent was getting on, and to assure her
that their children were doing WELL
The school children of Trebbin readily
charged themselves with the task of
finding food for the patient, bringing
her every day far more than the neces-
sary number of living frogs. The bur-
gomaster paid an official visit every
day to the sick guest of the municipali-
ty, TO see that the Doctors orders were
duly carried out, and in less than q
fortnight the bird was sufficiently hale
to fly away to her husband and children.

Teeipr Servants in Europe.

Cincinnati commercial.
The habit Of feeling the servants,
while still deeply rooted, is losing pres
tige, and American influence will event.
ually kill it. One class of American
travellers never give fees. Not accus-
toned to il at home, they boldly and
fearlcssly spurn it here. The other
class give fees with far too lavish a
hand, and what is beyond all reason.
They scorn to give man as well
dressed as themselves penny, and SO
they give shilling. Servants thus ex-
brilliantly feed soon learn to receive
with contempt any thing less, even from
their employers, and so the European
himself is compelled to fee beyond rea-
son, and thus the whole system will die
of its own weight. The stranger is al
ways embarrassed in determining whom
to fee and whom not, and how much TO
give. In many places the servants re-
ceive no compensation whatever from
their employers, and are paid solely by
gratuities; very large sums are often
paid proprietors for the positions.
A few months since the city of Lon
don tore away restaurant and appro-
priated the ground for city purposes.
The proprietor, not satisfied with the
indemnity paid him, brought an action
against the city of London, in which it
was demonstrated that the sums paid
him by the several walters for their sew
eral positions were not only thousands
of dollars in the aggregate, but were
far beyond the regular profits of the
business, think the clever Yankee
hit the point exactly a few days ago,
who when asked by a servant at an cat
ing-house for his fee, replied by saying
that "lf your master is not able to pay
for his servants. he had better come out
here and do the work for himself" AL
ready you see notices in many Of the
hotels and museums that fees need not
be given, and occasionally you will
read very positive request not to give
any fees.
