Our Hartford Fair will begin on Tuesday
next, October 10TH and continue four days.
The entries, up this date, are not quite so
numerous as usual, but by the time the fair
opens it is believed that the various depart
ments will be well filled and the exhibition
be as successful as usual. The track is now
in excellent condition for trials of speed, and
some fine trotting is expected. lfthe wealth
er is favorable, Notwithstanding the adverse
Influences of fairs this week in adjoining
counties, and the pressing amount of work
in the hands of our farmers and Gamers, the
attendance will be large. The people o
Hartford county should take pride in sustain

farm products, and we believe they will dc
so. Gen. Bradley T. johnson will delive

Preparing H0rseradish.

A grower of horseradish for the mar.
ket gives the following directions for
preparing if for sale: The roots, which
are grown from "sets'' started early
in the spring, come to maturity and are
dug in the month of November to be
stored for winter use. At the time of
digging the main root is freed from all
smaller ones, and the small roots are
covered for ''sets'' again in the spring.
The largest roots are what may be
called spragly." Everything intended
for grinding is covered in sand in a
basement cellar to prevent willing, and
is dug out in quantities as wanted. 1t is
first washed, then scraped and pared
clean, and the crowns cut off. These
are thrown away, as they are Of no value
for producing new plants. The grind
Ing or grating is done on perforated
tin cylinder that turns in close wooden
box which stands about breast high.
The motion is produced by the foot in
the same way that a lathe or grindstone
is turned. AS the ground root soon
loses its white color in the air, small
quantity only can be ground at time.
This is mixed with vinegar and put at
once into bottles and corked tightly.
The bottles are afterward sealed by
dipping the cork in prepared wax.
The labelling completes the work. It is
only prepared as fast as sold. Keeping
the radish in dark, cool place will
not keep the pure root from losing its
strong taste: and bottle of the pre-
pared root left to stand open must be
freshly ground to be good. The I'M
ground roots retain their full strength
as long as they remain perfectly covered
from the air with sand. Freezing does
not hurt them.

A Humming Bird.

The magpie is very watchful and cum
ming. Its colors are black, white and
blue, and its cry is harsh and unpleas-
ing, Its tail, which is always in mo-
ton, is quite long, and its flight is
heavy because of the shortness of its
wings.
1t builds it's nest in high trees, towers
and church-steeples. The nest is made
of strong twigs and is plastered inside
with mud. 1t lays six or seven eggs,
whitish gray in color, notified and
dashed with black.
The magpie is easily tanned, is a good
mimic, and can be taught to say few
words; but when tanned it is apt to be-
come too familiar. II is great thief,
and will carry off small articles, especial
ly such as sparkle. Thimbles, ear
rings, silver spoons, bows of ribbon and
pieces of lace have been often found in
the nest of the magpie. Children and
servants have been charged with taking
them, when the magpie was the real
thief.
A lady once owned pet magpie. 1t
would perch upon her shoulders and
thrust it's bill between her lips, to feed
her with ripe cherries, just as she some
times fed him. But what was her sur
prise and disgust when one day, instead
of a cherry, he dropped a large green
fat worm into her mouth. Our Little

Potatoes Under Straw.

Several years ago there was much
said about growing potatoes under
straw, and we published at the time
several reports from those who had
tried the method with success. Inter-
est in the subject appears to be renewed,
to Judge from inquiries. The method is
very simple. The land is prepared in
the usual manner and the rows marked
and very slightly or : not at all covered
with soil. The whole field, or bed, is
then covered with eight or ten inches
thickness of old straw. Nothing more
is required until digging time, unless
some strong weeds should make their
way through the straw, and these may
be pulled. 1t is claimed that the yield
is larger and the potatoes are much
handsomer than those treated in the
usual manner AQriculturist.

Forming a Stock Company.

A New Jersey miller who had become
old and rheumatic, one day called his
sons about him and said:
"Boys, l am growing stiff in the
knees and faint at heart. My liver is
out of order, and | can no longer dis
tinguish between peck and = half
bushel when taking toll. This mill is
worth $4,000. In order to form a
stock company and render my own
burdens the lighter, I shall give Reuben
two-tenths, Samuel the same, and
Charles Henry, who is my first born,
three-tenths. Bless you, my children,
bless you. You may now go fishing for
half q day.
The three sons took the papers which
the old man had made out, and instead
of going a-fishing, they went down to
lawyers office, called a meeting OF
the stockholders and proceeded to bust
ness. The frst-born was elected Presi-
dent, Reuben Treasurer and Samuel
Secretary, and the following resolution
was passed:
RESOLVED, That we bounce the Old man
and run the mill after our own ideasP'

TO WHICH KINGDOM?

"a TRUE INCIDENT.)
hush in the school-roOm prevailed;
Each heart with expectancy burned,
Tor the Kaiser was coming that day,
And all eyes to the portals were turned.
And now he has entered the room.
LO that Kaiser, so stately and proud;
He has gazed on each sunny head there
That before him in reverence is bowed.
and now every heart gives throb,
As before him is stationed class,
And the Kaiser, so great and so tall,
Thus questions bright little lass:
$40 which kingdom bcongeth this rose?'
Taking one from the vase by his side;
Her blue eyes were lift ted to his,
ITO the Vegetable quick she replied.
"Rght, right little maiden; and this?"
And forth from his pocket he drew
a fair jeweled watch, with its chain,
And then held it up to her view.
Not a doubt to her blue eyes arose.
AS she stood meath the kaiscrs proud gaze,
But clear came her answer again:
ITO the Mineral sir, if you please.
With smile at her answer. 50 quaint,
Said the Kaiser so mighty and high:
And now. little mud, can you tell
OF which kingdom Il member am L!
All. poor little maid. twas. indeed,
A specimen strange to her eyes;
She gazed at the Kaiser, so tall,
But mute were her lips with surprise.
A specimen rare-that wise little maid
That question had not heard before.
Of the Kingdoms three, to which he be-
lOnged, a&
That Kniser-it puzzled her sore.
che elephant great she had seen,
And the spotted tigers as well,
And the lions, too with bristling name,
And their kingdom she quickly could tell.
But Kaiser! ali, never before
Had she seen one stately and grand;
Sure, not with the rose or the watch,
Or the elephant huge could he stand.
A sweet puzzled look filled her eyes,
And she stood in a wondering maze:
On the stately form and the kingly brow
Of the Kaiser she fixed her gaze.
But now springs light to her eyes,
As. placing his hand on her head,
" To which kingdom?' he questions again.
ITO the Kingdom of Heaven she said.
All! wise little maid may thy words
A prophecy true unfold,
And when thou shalt enter the Kingdom
above,
Thou may'st then the Kaiser behold.

HOME, FARM AND GARDEN.

A sink drain becoming choked with
grease may be cleaned by plugging up
the outlet and filling the drain with
strong boiling hot lye of wood ashes.
After this has remained in a short time
the outlet should be opened and the
drain flushed out with hot water.-N.

1t is usual when planting celery to
cut off the leaves of the longest stalks,
leaving only the heart 1t will tend to
dwarf celery to set the plants close; that

requires cool, moist place; in rich,
warm soil it may run to seed, making =
very rank growth.
Old lace curtains that have little

Take a piece of lace, or very thin mus

Ants may easily be destroyed by
dissolving sugar of lead in water and

Before the children's stockings be-

darning put piece of cloth under and
sew with fine stitches so that they will

cloth. By taking the trouble to do this
stockings may be made to last twice as
long as without it.
To preserve natural flowers so that
they will look natural. either single or
in bouquets, dissolve by agitation and
digestion in a closely-stoppered bottle
three-quarters of an ounce of clear pale
gum copal, coarsely powdered and
mixed with an equal weight of broken
glass, in one pint of pure sulphuric ether
-ethylic ether Dip the flowers in this
liquid remove quickly, expose to the
air ten minutes, then dip again: and ex-
pose as before. Repeat dipping and
drying four or five times. Most flowers
thus treated will remain unaltered for
some time if not handled.
