A Sailor Sees a Strange Craft.

A sailor was standing at the foot of
Main street yesterday talking with an
old "salt' just from below, when tall
young man came to the dock astride
of a nickle plated bicycle The old man
eyed the machine for minute or two,
and then turning to the reporter, said:
"Sav, shipmate, what sort of craft is
that ?" The reporter told him that it

the sailor, ''pretty spread o canvas

scented, the bicycler had got into the
middle of the street on his return.
Going slowly, he got heavy jolt from
the street car track. The sailor
smiled as he said: Thought his cargo
was going to shift when he was in STAYS

The reporter once more assented. The
sailor broke off splinter from a stave

The reporter explained that bicycle is
wIre-rigged, has iron arches, and when
well made, was never known to be
hogged or open her seams, even when
she got on u lee shore. The old man
looked on musingly for a while, and
then said, as the bicycler started mp the

How to Write for Newspapers.
INSTRUCTIONS AS To PREPARING COPY
FOR THE PRINTER.

There are several reasons why manu-
script for the printer should not be
written on both sides OF the paper. The
chief one, and a sufficient one if there
were no other, is that it is often neces-
ssry, or at least best, particularly in
newspaper composing or type-setting
room, for the foreman TO divide the
''cOpy" or manuscript into small por-
tons, called "takes" each including not
more than printers stickEul of matter.
and pay it out" that is, deliver it to
a number of composites or type-setters.
in different parts OF the room. A stick
is an iron gauge set to the width meas
ure of q column to he fitted, in which
compositors set their type. A stickful
Will fill about two inches in length
to the column. 4 closely written
page of letter paper will make from one
and half to three stickiuls, or takes. of
such type as this article is set in. II
the page is written on one side only, the
foreman can cut the page into the proper
number OF takes, numbering them as he
pays them out to compositors, so as to
insure the proper arrangement of the
matter when it is brought together again
after those different persons have set it
in type. But, if the manuscript is writ
ten on both sides, such division of il
into takes, if not impossible, is ct least
much more difficult, and apt to lead to
confusion and delays, or to blunders
notifying to writer, editor and printers.
Bat it Is not only the printer who is en-.
barrassed; the proof reader, who has to
read the proofs by copy, is put to extra
trouble. If printers are very profane,
they are apt to betray this weakness
when thay get a piece of copy written
Cd beth sides of the paper. Christian
contributors and all sound moraists
should bear this in mind. 1t frequently
happens, in the printing offices of the
great dailies, that after all the rest of the
paper Is IL type, several columns OF tele-
grams or other special matter are sent
IN Iast before the last form is ready to go
to press. To avoid delay, the matter is
divided into four or five line takes and
distributed among forty or fifty compos-
itore; whereas, if such matter came
written on both sides of TIE paper, such
rapid dispatch would be impracticabIe
These reasons ara sufficient to Justify
the editorial rule under consideration.
If any peculiar genius despi es it, let
him reflect that many fine piece of
composition has gone into the waste
paper basket because this rule was not
observed. How many writer's have died

THEY WOULDN'T SQUEEZE.

A Eyena ana Wolf met one day in a
narrow path in the forest. By little

There is some little art, if we may so
style it, in feeding young chickens to make
healthful and vigorous growth while
young. Fully nine-tenths of the mortality
amongst poultry, from sickness or disease,
occurs while the chicks are in the s'downy"
state, and the majority Of this loss occurs
from improper food, and careless or igno-
rant feeding Corn-meal, which is far too
generally used, is unfit for young chickens,
being too heating for their tender and i'm
mature digestive organs. Corn-meal has
killed more young chickens than rats The
best food we have ever found for young
birds is stale bread, either crumbled up and
fed dry, scalded and fed when cool, or else
merely moistened in fresh milk. Where
milk is abundant, it should always be used
and if the young birds get plenty Of milk,
in some form, they win grow so rapidly as
to astonish those who have never given
milk literally to their poultry We know
of one breeder, large dairyman in Ches-
ter County, Pennsylvania, who feeds the
principal part of his refuse milk to his poul-
try, old and young, and his birds are not
oily singularly free from disease, but large,
and finely developed in body and feather
ing. This breeder gives milk the credit of
it all, but it may be due in part to excellent
care

Every one who has gathered wild Black
berries is aware that the stems grow to the
hight of six Of eight feet, and gracefully
bend over at the top. The lower part of
the cane bears little or no fruit, it being
nearly all at the top Of the bush. The
same happens on a smaller scale with the
Raspberry when left to itself While we
cultivate the Blackberry for the sake Of
better fruit than the wild plants usually
afford, We should also endeayor to have
niOre of il, and more conveniently placed
on the bushes. From questions that are
asked, il Is evident that all are not aware
that the stems Of tho Blackberry and Rasp-
berry Cat least those cultivated for fruit are
only biennial The plant throws up from
the root, often at some distance from the
old stems, vigorous shoots, which grow
rapidly, and BY autumn win become ripe
and hard canes, like the old ones. The
old canes, which have given crop Of fruit,
have completed their work, and, though
they may remain alive for awhile, viii all
be dead BY next spring. When the fruit
has been gathered, it Is best to cut the
canes entirely away, to give room to the new
ones. These should have more attention
than they usually receive; if left to them
selves they win become just ike the wild
plants, struggling, and with their fruit all
the top. Not only on account of the greater
quantity Of fruit, but for the ease in pick
ing il, should the canes be pruned. Black
berry canes should never grow over five
feet, and many prefer to keep them at three
feet high. Whenever the green shoot has
reached the desired hight, remove the top,
or growing point, which, being tender. may
be piached off with the thumb and finger.
Soon afetr this is done, branches viii start
along the stem, and these should also be
pinched, the lower ones when eighteen in
ches long, and the upper when twelve in
ches. BY little attention, once week,
or oftener, giving the needed pinching, the
Blackberry, instead of being long strag-
Cling shrub, catching at the clothing Of all
who approach it, may be brought into the
form Of neat pyramidal bush, which, the
next season, win be loaded with fruit from
bottom to top. The same treatment may
