WHICH 'is the most profitable crop to
grow is . question oftsn asked. The
answer depends on circumstances and
soil; climate, capital and labor all must
be considered before deciding. One
thing we wish to impress on farmers is
the mistake they make in discarding
certain vegetables because they. are
troublesome to grow. We must not
forget that the easier crop can be
produced the cheaper it sells, and the
higher the price the greater the profit,
even when labor is increased. For in
stance, If crop be easily produced on
an acre ct cost Of so which sells at
$40 there would be clear profit of SO
on the acre. For two acres the outlay
would be $40 and the profit $40. But
il we place the $40 worth Of labor on
one acre and derive $50 of profit, the
receipts and expenses Of the easy and
more laborious crop would be the same,
but one-half the land will be saved by
the growing Of crop that requires
double labor. If bushel of corn sells
for 81, and the farmer labors to the
value Of IS cents to produce it, he is
really selling his labor and not the
corn, for the actual substance taken
from the soil by the corn is but frac-
tion of it's value. In our large markets
these vegetables that require care and
management and much labor to pre-
duce them bring high prices, the rates
being high because farmers will not
raise them until they feel sure of no,
only being reimbursed for the outlay

Riding Outfits at New York.

A riding outfit for lady costs any
where from $1O0 up. A very pretty one,
though, can be purchased for that sum,
the habit must be of some fine cloth,
dark green being the fashionable color
at present. The short skirt is also
worn. aa it is less dangerous, although
not SO graceful as the long skirts. The
dee pG hem is loaded with shot to keep
the skirts down. and pair of trousers
of the cloth is generally worn, Inc
waist is made with long coat tail and
short in front, and fastens with tiny but
tons. No jewelry is worn, a simple
linen collar finishing the neck. The
i,erby hat is the popular shape, but t. TIN
a long veil which floats like a pennon
in the wind. The gauntlet gloves are
worn now with walking costumes. La
dies riding boots are made after, the
English fashion, and are entirely o
patent leather with pointed toes. They
cost from SIS to $25 pair.

Yourself Compared With.the EN-
Deror of China.

It is true that the most of us do know
for the main part. only those people
whose lives run along in close proximity
to our own. But it does not follow that
those people are not as well worth
knowing and as enjoyable as those whose
society can be attained only by indie
fatigable climbing. The people in this
world, considered in battalions of hun
dreds or thousands-most people know
as many in the course of their lives
strike a pretty even average after all,
and one battalion is about as pleasant
and companionable to march in as an
other. And then, too, the select spirits
do not always undergo close acquaintance
with credit to themselves and pleasure
to ones self. The little woman next
door. or around the corner, or on the
next street, is undoubtedly just as charm
ing and just as companionable as the
great actress, the far famed author, the
admired belle. The people one meets
at a friends evenings converse just as
well, and probably great deal better,
than the pope or the emperor OF China.
On the whole, taken all in all and OH an
average, the people one chances to meet
are lust as well worth knowing as the
people one never SEES Boston Globe.

"Man-CarryIng Pig"

When King Pomare of Tahiti became
a convert to Christianity, he was anxious
to see a horse. He had heard the Eng
lish people talk of the noble and useful
animal until his curiosity became so
great that it was decided to send him
one as present. So in the cargo of a
vessel sent to Tahiti from New South
Wales was fine horse, with silky coat
and flowing name and tail, for King
POmare.
1t was intended that the horse should
be taken ashore from the vessel in q
large canoe which had been sent along
side for the purpose; but the slings in
which he was fastened gave way as he
was being lowered, and the animal fell
into the sea.
He at once struck boldly for the land
but the natives no sooner saw hlR than
they plunged into the waves and swan
after him like shoai of porpoises; selz-
ing his tail and his name, and nearly
pulling him under.
The kin. shouted and the captain
screamed at them in vain, while the ter
rified horse struggled frantically for the
shore.
As soon as he reached the land the
crowd there fed for their lives in every
direction, climbing rocks and trees, and
hiding behind bushes. Ohe by one,
however. they returned, when they saw
q sailor slip halter around the crea-
lures neck and lead him along.
Next morning, in the presence of q
great number of admIring natives, the
captain put saddle on the horse and
rode it up and down before the kings
tent.
As he cantered, galloped and trotted,
obedient to the rein, the people shouted
and danced. crying, Buaa- hars- fenna

Open Groves of Trees.

Prof. Budd suggests that on the open
windy prairies plan in use for ages on
the similar hot, dry, open plains of Cen
trail Russia could be adopted with prof
table effect. 1t is the establishment of
open groves of trees of sort not liable
to be injured by cattle and less inimical
to the growth of grass. These trees af-
ford shelter to the grasses, which when
thus defended from beating winds,
make more and better growth. No
doubt cattle would benefit too from the
shelter, as well from the better pasture.
We know how mulch better We feel our
selves in the shelter of trees than in
open wind. Varieties of Poa and Ag-
rostis constitute the pasture on the great
parks in Russia, and the professor recon-
mends our native Blue Grass, and for
tree the Box Elder, set II feet apart at
first and thinned out for the fuel laterP
The Yellow Locust with Orchard Grass
would fill this bill satisfactory in many
parts of the country.

Polled Angus ana galloway Cattle.

There is so much similarity between
these two breeds of cattle that it is puz-
cling to the ordinary observer to under
stand why they should he classed as two
separate breeds. In fact, the distinction
between these two breeds does not run
through all individuals, since there are
MANY animals of each breed that could
not, by any characteristics of their own,
be distinguished from those of the other.
Take fifty head of each breed and turn
them together, and it would take very
close observer, and one quite familiar
with these cattle, to separate them cor
rectly as to breed.
In the first place, both breeds are
alike hornless, black in color, though
there is often a shade of brown on the
Angus which ls not seen on the Gallo
wav. and from their general makeup
we should suppose them to have been
at no very remote time one and the same
breed.
But, as bred for many years past, the
Angus are finer boned, finer haired ami
mails and apparently earlier in matur-
ing than their long-haired, coarser, but
still, perhaps, harder cousins, the Gal
lowavs. The Galloways are almost as
shaggy coated as the West Highlanders;
are strong boned-in short hardness
and good wrestling" qualities are shown
in all their make up, and 1t is doubtful
if there is any breed of cattle in the
world that can compare with them in
adaptation to cold climates and rough
usage. 1t is true that they must have
feed to make growth, but they are fitted
naturally to endure prlvation to which
some breeds must entirely succumb.
Whether the finer boued, early matur-
ing Angus are, all things considered, to
be preferred, is question not yet set
tied. SO far as tried in the west, both
are well liked, and as has been seen iu
our news items, both are bringing high
prices
