The Hare and the Fish.

The Hare and the Fish, having Dor
roved tobacco of each other for several
months and agreeing perfectly we'll on
politics, set ont to make q journey TO-
pether and see the sights OF the Worla.
Tbey had not proceeded many miles
when q Wolf was discovered in pursuit.
The Hare at once started of at the top
of lis speed, but the Fish called out:
"Do not leave me thus-I cannot
run |"
ga Fish who cannot run has no ousi-
ness to make q journey" replied the
Hare, and away he few to save MS
bacon.
The Fish hurried after as fast as pos
sible, and both found themselves on inc
honk of O. river, while the Wolf was yet
d furlong away. The Fish at once rolled
into the water and darted away but 1ne
Hare shouted after him: 80,

The First Cali.


1t is oftener the case when u heifel
has her first calf, says the Indiana
Farmer, that the farmer thinks she vii
not give more milk than will keep her
calf in good condition and let's them run
together to teach her the mystery oi
being MIXED when she has her next
calf. In this decision there are two
mistakes that go far to spoil the COW for
uture usefulness. Cows are largely th Q
creatures of habit, and with their first
calf everything is new and strange to
them, and they readily submit to being
milked,Iand think it is ell right, but
suffer them to run with the calf the first
season and vicious habit is established
that they will hardly forget in life
time. If they ever submit to be MIXED
quietly, it is evidently under protest.
But there is greater objection than
this. The calf running with the COW
draws the milk every hour or two, so
that the milk vessels are at no time
distended with milk, though the guam
tity secreted iq a given time may be

Dampness undoubtedly favors the
growth of the potato disease, and,
therefore, where there is any chance at
all of the disease existing in the roots,
they ought to be stored as dry as posi-.
BILE. Those which are to be kept in
this general wsy should be especially
seen to in the case of seed potatoes.
Since the potatoe beetle came among
US it is clear that We have had the very
best results from early planting and by
the use of the earliest varieties. Now
these early kinds are more easily af-
fected by warmth than the late ones
They sprout easily, and coolness' is,
therefore, more essential for them.
Some people think that it makes hau
little difference whether seed potatoes
sprout or not before planting. We
have known people to tear off sprouts
several inches long, and cut up the
tubers in full faith that they will sprout
again and be none the worse for it. They
do generally grow, but there is little
doubt that they are constitutionally
weaker and much more liable to disease
than those which do not sprout until
ready to 20 in the grourd. .-Gcrman-

THE Bank Charter Extension Bill, which has been under consideration in congress for . long time and which has excited a deep interest among the business men of the country, has passed the senate and will no doubt become law. The principal featurs are as follows: Any National Bank may rerew It's charter for twenty years upon the consent of two-thirds of it's stockholders. If share holder is opposed to the renewal he is entitled to receive the value of his stock. The old notes are to be destroyed within three years or the bank to deposit money enough to redeem fhe remainder. Banks with capital of one hundred thousand dollars or less, will not be required to keep on deposit bonds in excess of one.third of their capitol, and banks having an excess of that amount are authorized to reduce their circulation by the deposit of law ful money according to law. The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to receive bonds bearing 1-2 per cent interest and to issue in exchange for them an equel amount ot registered bonds bearing per cent. interest. These bonds will not be called in so long as any bonds heretofore issued bearing higher rate of interest are outstanding.
