Trout FIaaed With Gold.

The waters of Kern River and It's
tributaries=zexeeptin the headqua, tiers
of Whitney Creek, are occupied by the
speckled brook trout so often found in
the streams and lakes of the Sierra,
whose meat is hard and sweet because
bred in wa. er SO fresh and cold. The
species found in the. headwaters OF
" hitney Creek are peculiar to that
place and creek, and are known as the
s.goIden trout" They are found, as
we understand it, at no other place. in
the world, and have as yet secured no
scientific name. They do not excel in
delieacy of flesh the other varieties
found here, but are noted for the beau
tiful color which flakes their sides as
purely golden as il they had been; SUBJ
mitted to coating of 2old foil. This

rier exlstiu9y between them and the
other varieties whica are found in the
creek. 4 series of high and rocky falls
prevent other fish from ascending and
mi ing with them, and so. from gener-
alton to generation. they have thus, by
a natural arrier, been able to preserve
their distinct character. Attimes some
of them descended into he lower
courses, of the stream,5 and a mixed
tribe of trout, combining the speckled
and golden trout, has been formed, in

English Business USaneeS.

The more highly paid class of SER
wants, such as managers, cashiers,
clerks above the grade OF copyists, etc,
are generally engaged for an indefinite
term, subject to three months notice.
Such an enga ement as this, although
it may possibly continue for several
years, need not be in writing, because
It NAV be dissolved within the year;
and it is only when contract which
is entire and indivlsible can not be fully
performed within that time, that writ
inc is necessary. 1t is. however, de-
sirabIe that the terms of the en- age
ment should be in writing. for the sake
of certainty and to avoid misunder-
standing. Copying clerks, Journey
men, and persons occupying positions
of similar kind, are usually subject
to one months notice. In all cases,
the obligation as to notice is recipro-
cal, and equally binding on both par
ties, mutually beng essential to
the agreement. There is, however,
one distinction which has a
substantial reason for its ex-
istence; master may pay his clerk or
manager three months salary. or his
journeyman or copying clerk one
months salary, and dismiss him I'M
medlately; but the servant must give
the proper notice, and can not throw
up his engagement by sacrificing sal
airy in lieu of notice. The reason for
this is obvious; if a clerk gets his sal
airy without working for it, instead of
working out his Notice. he is not in any
way in iured, but may be benefited by
prompt dismissal; for he may Obtain an
engagement elsewhere before the time
when the notice would have expired
But it would be difficult to estimate the
loss which might be sustained by a
master In consequence of the sudden
withdrawal of a confidential clerk or
manager. For any breach of contract
an action of damag es viii lie at the in
stance of either party and the measure
of damages will be the probable loss
to the servant before he can find a new
situation, or to the master before he
can find q new servant. Chambers

Some Causes Of Bad Flour.

The general belief among the masses
of people to-day is that the millers are
to blame altogether for so much bad
flour. But those who have given the
subject their careful attention find that
nine farmers out Of ten are the chief
cause themselves; and we frequently
hear the remark, that flour amt as
good now as it was fifteen or twenty
wears ago. /, too, agree with them to a
certain extent; but what is he cause of
this inferior -four? First, let us take a
common sense view of the matter. Do
the farmers of to-day take the pains
with their wheat that they did fifteen or
twenty years ago? l answer no. Some
may wish to know.the difference; so L
will explain: Then the farmer let his
wheat get thoroughly ripe before
cuttin@-put from ten to twelve sheaves
in shock. let it cure out, and then
stacked and letit go through a sweat
before threshing. Thus the grain was
thoroughly matured and in its
natural state. But now we find
farmers (and. plenty of then)
who cut their wheat entirely
too green, and often just after a rain,
before the wheat has dried off-tie it up
in this condition. and put from fifteen
to thirty bundles in sho *, and as is
often the case, thresh before it is dsy or
had time to 90 through its proper pro-
cess; then take it to the mill and expect
a choice grade of hour, and II they fail
10 get it, swear the miller is of no &C
count. or else cheated him out of his
wheat; and all the time the wheat
should have been left in the straw to
thoroughly mature. Now, this is a
common occurrence, and growing
evil on the part OF most farmers. There
is no doubt but wheat will dry out more
in the straw in five days, than it will in
ten or fifteen days in the bulk: and
moreover, such a grade OF wheat will
not command good price. because it
is shriveled, dark and musty: and all
the improved mill machinery and
gradual reduction systems in the world
cannot turn out a good grade of flour
from such wheat.-fincdstte ga

Pruning Orchard Trees.

There are numerous opinions about
pruning trees, and each one offering
them believes himself right IN the
matter. Some prune in cold weather.
some do lot; some prune little. others
much; some follow one method, others
another, until the mind of the novice
or amateur in fruit growing is quite at
a loss TO know what to Cko and when TO
do it. The theory is held that wounds
made on trees will not heal during cold
weather, hence trees should not then be
pruned; but practical orchardists gem
eral V heed theories but little and prune
...when the knife is sharp Turing
the mild weather of late winter and
early spring is a good time for tbs
business, and. coming at the season of
the wear when there is but little to do

opportunity.

Blarnex.

By ''blarney'' is usually understood
fluent power of persuasion--the faculty
to stalk over" person to ones own
way of thinking by good words, often
containing more fattery than truth.
An apt illustration of it is related by
an old Western lawyer, as a joke on
himself, in some "reminiscences of his
early practice. The incident would
make curious appendix to Betsy and
I are Out" bringing laughter in the
place of tears. The narrator says:
Twas sitting in my office one day
when in stepped an Irishman whom
will call John Wood. of Union County,
and told me he had been recommended
to me for sound counsel in an import
ant case He had arrived in America
directly from Cork, Ireland. onlva few
years before, bringing with him his
wife and several children as far as
Hamilton County. o., where by pure
accident he and his ''ould woman" had
somehow got separated, and had not
lived together since. and his business
with me was to employ me to file bill
for a divorce in the Union Circuit
Court. The fee was twenty dollars,
which he agreed to pay, and left.
| Immediately filed the bill, and had
the notice published in the paper for
the ne> term. The old woman acct
dentally saw the advertisement, and
thereby found out for the first time
where the old man had stopped after
he had left her, and came directly over
to the old mans residence. The whole
matter was soon reconciled between
them.
Soon after this settlement, the old
man called at my office in fine humor.
"Misther Smith. the ould woman an

Indeed! Well, I am very glad of
it. You are both too old to separate :"

be left at the terminus of each branch
or twig, which diverge sidewise. Thus,
gradually, the young trees may he
made to take awell-proportioned form,
and result in graceful, and what is
better, fruitful ones.
Old trees, untrimmed and left to a
wild scraggy growth, are pretty sure
evidence OF carelessnesS and unthrifti-
ness on the part of their owners. The
condition of the orchard is 3 pretty

things on the farm and of the methods
OF farming in general Trim out all
the dead branches first, and the scraggy
growth within the tree; but it will not
do to cut out all the crooked-growing

done gradually, removing, each year
those which crowd and grow ill-shaped,
until the desired shape IS attained.
! We visited an orchard last fall which
illustrated the perfection of trimming

fruit, and last year this was a rarity.
Standing beneath tree. near the body,
scarcely any fruit was visible; but step

Rye is usually sown on the poorest
land, given the least care and the least
manure of any crop on the farm. This
is at least true in sections where wheat
is grown, as the wheat is considered
most valuable. No wonder that with
such treatment rye should have bad
reputation and be called the poor
farmers crop. But with good treat
ment, rye will respond as favorably as
any other grain. Some who have ma
nured rye very heavily for ensilage,
and allowed the portion not eaten to
ripen it's seed, have found surprising
results. One such farmer last year
grew thirty-eight bushels per acre.
Notwithstanding the heavy manuring,
the rye stood up till harvest, while
wheat growing SO heavy would be

The Charm of the Rose.

There is probably no inanimate OBJ
iect in the world more beautiful than a
delicately-tinted rose. There is GER
talnly nothing else which combines
such beauty of form, and color with
such exquisite delicacy of texture and
such delicious perfume. l can think of
nothing to equal half open flower of
La France. l choose La France be-
cause of its perfume, of its color. The
perfume is certainly unequaled; pow
erful, yet never heavy, it seems the
very breath of summer. Then look
into the roses heart! Was ever such
glowing rosy rose seen elsewhere? Like
the perfume, it is powerful,
yet always tender and delicate.
AS we look into the flowers
cup we see it all aglow with this
brilliant, tender, vibrating red, but the
outer part, where the petals turn back,
is of milky whiteness, a satiny
smoothness The inner petals are
small and ranged round the cup. the
outer ones are long and somewhat ir-
regular, making very attractive
shape.
While everyone acknowledges the.
beauty of the rose and recognizes its
color and it's perfume, very few indeed
know truly why it is so charming.
The charm seems to me to lie, in great
part. in the fine silk texture OF the
petals and in their translucency. No
other flowers have these IN such marked
degree and it is these qualities which
make the contrast between the cool,
clear rim and outside of the cup and
It's glowing heart. The other charm is
that which IS the most felt when we
look down into the depths of the half
open bud. 1t is the charm which it
shares with every beautiful thing which
is s.hidden yet half revealed. - George b
Eam6din, IN Art Union.
