RUSSIAN SUPERSTITION.
Rrw Russiau Peasants FOreteil the
Weather aud MisfOrtune.

4 russian admirer of General Hazen,
he weather prophet, wishes to inform
he Grief of the signal service OF some OF
he weather signs of the Russian
mOujiks, who have, for over 1000 years,
studied the meteorological significance
of the action of mice, cats, lobsters, fish,
dogs, swallows, swans, geese, ducks,
ROSTERS, smoke, and acorns:
If sparrows are busy about their nests,
or flying in flocks, the weather will be
clear and fair.
If swans fly southwark quite late in
the season, say at the end Of september,
the fall will be warm and prolonged.
If swallows fly near the ground,
there will be rainy or windy weather.
II chicks seek shelter, the weather
will be wet.
Ifchickens and other fowls pick their
feathers, there will be cloudy and damp
weather.
II during severe frosts ROSTERS crow
very early, the weather will become
moderate or even warm.
When ducks bathe and quack there
surely will be rain, and when they are
quiet there will be thunderstorm.
Ifgeese battle it will rain.
If q cat searches for q warm place
there will be cold weather. Ifa cat
scratches a door, table, or other object
with its claws, there will be windy
and snowy weather.
II dogs roll in the winter there will
be snow; if in summer there we be rain.
II mice make their nests above the
ground in ricks the fall will be rainy
and prolonged. If they make tleir
nests under the ground the spring will
be fair. If they make their nests before
the crop is reaped, rainy weather will
begin in August, and the fall will be
bad.
Fish appear on the surface Of the
water before rain, and 90 to the bottom
before a strong wind.
HOLSTERS crawl upon the banks before
rainy weather.
If oak lands grow plentifulth follaw-
ing winter will be severe and the sum
mer fruitful.
If smoke sinks to the ground when
there Is no wind, in winter 1t will snow
and in summer 1t will rain. IL S'noEe
rists even during bad weather fair
weather viii follow.
Fiat sunset there are no clouds the
next day will be fair; if the sun sets in
clouds the next day will be cloudy, and
perhaps rainy. If the setting sun is
led, tie next day there will be strong
wind.
little horns Of the new moon are long
ard sharp, then in winter the whole
month will be cold, and In summer
fair.
II the moon looks pale it will rain; II
clear and bright, there will be fair
weather; if it rises in the evening the
next day will be warm.
II the first thunder is heard from the
south during the coming summer there
will be many thunder storms. If il
thuGders in winter there will be strsng
wind
lfthere are red clouds before sunrise
the Day will be very windy.
fla person lets the moon shine on his
or her empty pocket book, he or she
will not have another penny during
the whole month.

Pruning Trees-How to Preserve Salt Pork
The Grindstone-Things the
. Farmer Should Know.
Notes.
Pruning Fruit and Ornamental Trees


There is a great deal printed about
the proper time of pruning trees, espe-
cially the apple tree. Some people pre-
fer fall, some mid winter, some early
spring, but scarcely one recommends
in our humble opinion the very best
fime-nid summer. Doubtless some
old fogies will open their eyes aud hold
I'D IT, cir hands at such an innovation
and denOunce 1t as an absurdity; but
We think that we will be sustained Dy
a majority of the "live" men OF the day.
II We desire to improve the form OF n
fIuit tree and get rid Of some OF the su-
perfluous wood, we should prune from
the fifteenth of June to the twentieth OF
July. We have done this often with
The happiest results. The fruit buds
form after this, and the operation III
suddenly cutting off the trees growth
produces buds, while the winter or early
spring pruning will.produce only wood.
In pruning trees IN midsummer the
bark, instead of receding from the
stump, grows over II, and in y year Or
two will completely cover it and form
perfect smputation. We have noticed
this upon our own premises, as well g.
upon those OF others many times. This
pruning is done when the tree is tax
ing its midsummer "siesta," and then
wakes up refreshed for another start,
and the bark gradually steals over the
stump as If to conceal the shabby-look-
ing exposure.
When the tree Is in full leaf and pre-
sents Its full form to us, we can see ex.
actly where the pruning should be done
in order that while the overgrowth may
he removed the symmetry of the may
De preserved. Especially is mid-sum-
mer pruning to be preferred, first, to
produce buds on fruit bearing trees, a.
before stated; and second, when large
limbs are to be removed.
To Preserye Salt Pork I'm Hot Weather.
In order to protect salt pork in sum
mer aga INST becoming tainted or hav-
ing an offensive taste, which so often
bOthers Farmers Advocate, OF London,
Canada, claims to have discovered the
cause, which is no more nor less than
the stale grease and impurities In the
brine, which arising to the surface, are
allowed to remain there, instead OF be-
ing removed carefully every week or
two. The quantity and strength OF the
brine, will make no difference as to
preservir g the pork in its sweetness,un-
less these Objectionable gatherings ar,
skinned Off whenever they appear,and
they will appear by the brine coming
in contact with the atmosphere ami
producing more or. less of putrefaction.
This effects the brine and i'll turn the
impure lIiue taints the meat. The
writer adds that the best preventive il
to boil tie brine before warm weather
which will cause all the impurities to
arise to the top, which must-be SKINNED
of rs fast as it makes its appearance; at
terward, tie meat having been washed,
anG tie stands" having been scalded
out, the meat and brine can be returned,
when there will be little apprehension
of tamtlDg.
