THE PRESS.
Jules Verne.

Jules Verne is about fifty-two, with fine,
handsome head. Once blonde, he wears his
beard full and his hair curled in a haphazard
fashion. His features are more than regular;
they are fine. His eye is bright, of clear
blue, brilliant, and yet moist. His dominant
expression is sweetness, but firm sweetness,
like rosy steel, which does not bend. His
mouth, which says such charming and clever
things, says "Yes" or mo with the same
smile. But eyes" and NO" it is irrevocable.
A Breton of Nantes, Jules Verne has kept the
religious traditions of Brittany, but rather like
a painter who preserves the impressions of his
travels than like child of the soil who would
die for his faith. He is at bottom more of a
sceptic than D'Ennery No one would stand
up more bravely for doctrine, but no one
would, moment after, make more question
able speech. In politics it is worse, for he
never voted in his life.
Verne is lawyer; he came to Paris to
study law. His literary tastes led him in
other direction, but nevertheless he was adj
mitted to the bar. He then became secretary
TO NJ. Perrin, who at that time had the double
administration of the Opera Comique and of
Theatre Lyrique. After this he followed the
bent of his tastes more freely He contributed
a number of articles to the Musee des Families
and about this time wrote piece in one
act, lies Pailles Rompus," with which Alex
andre Dumas was connected, for it was he who
had it produced at the Theatre Historique
and it was he who bought the first copy after
it was printed After an experience in the
stock market, being still in love with litera-
ture, Verne published his first book, Give
Weeks in a balloon" 1t went off like hot
cakes, though it was only trial. But the sue
cess was so great that it appeared to Hetzel
that here was a new road in literature which
deserved to be followed up.
He made an engagement with Verne for
twenty years on what then appeared splendid
terms, but which have since made the fortune
of the lucky editor. After the publication of
"Five Weeks in a Balloon he announced to
his friends one fine morning that he was about
to get married, and then disappeared. 1t was
the only sign of life that his wife has ever
given. Since then he has led the same life of
study, of travel, and of interminable produc-
ton. He passes his life between Paris and
Amiens, where he has a splendid house, when
he is not exploring somewhere or other on his
famous boat, the Saint Michel, ON which most
of his stories are written. AS for the rest, he
is the most charming man imaginable; mod
estly earning his 100000 francs year, to say
nothing of the great fortune the stage seems to
promise him.

Wintering Bees.

Beekeepers in the Northern States have
quite generally discarded houses built above
ground for the purpose of wintering bees
1t IS found that to winter successfully, espec-
tally indoors, the temperature must be kept
nearly uniform at bou 400 f. house
above ground this is found to be difficult.
If the walls are not very thick, the house be-
comes too cold at times unless great number
of colonies are kept in it, in which case there
is great danger of tie house becoming too
warm, especially in times of high tempera-
ture. Hence nearly all our most successful
beekeepers now pratice cellar wintering, in
which thrugh the influence of the earth, es-
pecially if sub-earth ventilators are construct
ed, the temperature is quite easily controlled.
Mrs. l.. b. Baker of Lansing, Mich, has
practiced this method throughout her very
successful experience, and has never lost
single colony. Others prefer outdoor W in
tering, in which bees are kept either in o So
called chaff hive, which has double walls from
four to eight inches apart, with the interven-
ing space filled with chaff, or else the ordin-
airy hives are surrounded by boards or a box,
and the space between, which should be
foot wide, is filled with chaff or straw In
both cases the arrangements are such that the
bees can fly whenever the weather is warm
enough to induce flight. 1 think at the pres
ent time the advocates of chaff hives or Jack
ing and cellar wintering are about equally di-
vided in the United States Prof. A. j.
Cook, Michigan Ag'l College.

Web-Footed Fowls.

A Kansas correspondent of the New York
Tribune writes: The past thirty years have
witnessed many agricultural folies, begin
ming with the "morus multicualis' fever, a
little more than three decades ago, the
Shanghai fever, the sheep fever, the short
horn fever, and, more lately, the poultry fe-
yer generally. But, as it is only by disease
that we are brought to appreciate health,
these morbid eXcitements may have resulted
in some good. Without desiring to create
or put in motion another "boom' l wish to
direct attention, as a specific branch of gen.
eral agriculture, to the raising of ducks and
geese for profit. Many old farmers, and per-
haps some young ones, may give sniff of tie
nose at this, but little experience has sat
isfed me that there is more money in ducks
and geese to the farmer than in hens or tur-
keys. The duck is generally esteemed as a
table fowl, and it only needs testing to make
the goose the peer of the turkey upon the
Christmas board. AS an egg producer there
is no fowl that will compare with ducks.
They bring slightly better price than chick
ems, cost no more to raise, under fair con-
ditions, and yield fine crop of feathers be-
sides. The goose produces about the same
number of eggs as turkey, can be raised at
half the cost, brings nearly the same price in
market, and yields abundantly of fine feath-
ers.
The goose, like the COW, makes its living
chiefly on grass, while the duck is the hog
of the poultry yard. 1t will eat anything,
from a child's glass marble to rattlesnake,
and, hat is better, seems to digest every
thing it swallows. The proper conditions for
raising these fowls proftably are low house
surrounded by corral sufficient to turn
skunks and foxes, with pasture proper
toned to the size of the flock, one acre TO fif-
ty geese. Clover is the best forage. The
pasture should be divided into four apart
ments. Four-foot laths cut in two will make
fence tall enough. Shallow cast-iron
bowls. surrounded by pickets, so that they
can only get the head and neck in, make the
best receptacles for water, or. if convenient,
a shallow running spring. The younglings
of either geese or ducks must be carefully
fed until three weeks old, and the best food
is light bread. made from "shorts' or coarse
-four, and soaked in cold water The next
two weeks their range should be blue grass
free from weeds or anything likely to trip
them, as they are easily thrown upon their
backs, and can rarely get up without help.
OF varieties any of the large Toulous Bre-
men, or Chinese geese, and of ducks, the
Muscovy, Black Cayuga, Pekin, or any large
breed that may suit the fancy. hope to be
able to elaborate some of the generalities
here given at a future time.

Influence of Trees on Health.

The value of trees from sanitary point of
view, in large and overcrowded cities, can
scarcely be overestimated. Apart from the
sense of lief and GOODNESS which they i'm
part, their value as purifiers of the atmos-
phere is almost incredible. 1t has been cal
culated that good sized elm, plane, or lime
tree, will produce 7.000,0 900 leaves, having
united area 100000 square feet The in
fuence of such large surface in the ABSORB
ton of deleterious gases, and the exhalation
of oxygen, must therefore be of immense
benefit in overcrowded and unhealthy dis
tricts.
In all large cities there exists great num-
Der of waste spots in which one or more trees
could be planted to advantage in every way
In this respect, at all events, they manage
things well in France, and indeed in most
Continental cities, where the boulevards are
kept cool in summer and warm in winter.
owing to the influence which trees have in
modifying Temperatures; in addition, the
tend by absorption to purify the soil below
as well as the atmosphere above them. A
society for planting trees in the wide streets
and waste places of the metropolis might ac-
complish as beneficial results as the excellent
institution which supplies drinking TO un-
tains for the refreshment of man and beast.

Walking Horses,

The Western Agriculturist has the follow
ing very sensible remarks on the gait of
farm horses, which are as applicable in this
section of the country as at the West
The walking gait is of all gaits the one TO
be encouraged. A horse can walk five miles
in an hour and has done 1t. Such horse j.
worth more than Maud S., st. Julien and
Bonner's team all put together; he would
probably walk to San Francisco quicker than
either of them could trot there. Walking is
the gait. and the sole gait, for the farm.
Why will farmers stand by the hour and
elongate their necks like Shanghai rooster,
to get glimpse of a wheeling slender, i'll
shaped trotting nag, when the managers of
the exhibition utterly ignore the kind of trav-
ell that concerns him? Why don't farmers
bring forward their good walkers, insist on
exhibiting them at the fairs and claim the
highest premiums for the most important
performances? The walking action is not in
consistent with great strength, endurance
and beauty. Look at the picture of trot-
ting horse; is it handsome? Can these ami
mails draw big load? Can they bear the
rough ard tumble of life like a Norman
French? Bred for EXTREMIST speed they be-
come what no sensible man wants.
