"Do with it? Why I'd retire." he re-
piled.
"Retire from what?' sayagely asked yet
another.
"Wen, don't know exactly; I'd just
sorter retire, as 1t were.'
"N es, you'd retire to the Gold Room, or
somewhere, and come back here in about
three weeks asking me to set 'em up.
That's way you'd retire.
"No, L wouldn't either, for ia know you

That was clincher, and the other man

had all the money could use, I'd hunt
me up a valley in Wyoming, where the

build little town, aud on one block I'd
put fine row Of tenements for all my
friends to live in, and the middle house
should be a splendid theatre, which
would do for a church on sundays, and
I'd have a railroad TO the town and let
her grow. We'd all start In on equal

"Well, the fact is, | haven't built it

1t is said by some one curious in these

other way of saying that with good sense
the people there know how to adapt their
domestic economy to the calOric charac-

A hog is one of the best aids farmer
can have to help turn his farm to good
account. Neither . barnyard nor pen is
his realm. 1t is queer that SO many farm
ers make this mistake and wait on their
hogs all summer, and then complain that
there is no money in them. Give hog a
chance and he VIII consume a great deal
of coarse material, not excepting weeds
or even thistles, aud turn them all into
money. He will also make the land rich
faster than any other animal if allowed
to do so. Put the hogs in the field and
keep them there. No farm is complete in
its arrangements unless provision is thus
made for the hOgs.-F. u. Curtis.

basket filed with as nice fresh vegetables
as one ever looked at. Of course, she found
ready sale for them at good prices; but
how she managed to get them through the

to draw her out on the subject failed, but
the male head Of the gardening firm was
at length encountered, and with an air OF
mystery and great caution lest his neigh.
bors should find it out, he informed the
professor that his secret was deep spading

spaded to the depth Of two feet and found
in that a substitute for irrigation and a

practice in cities ana towns where the
gardens are small to spade them up in

Raising pears can be made profitable.
an Instance of profitable pear raising is
round IN report to the American POmO-
logical Society in regard tO the pear
orchard OF the Old Dominion Fruit Grow
ing Company, located seVenty-fve miles
below Richmond, Va, on the James River.
The orchard contains 10000 trees, 10000
OF which are Bartletts, and have nearly
all been set since 1871. When the trees
were planted they Were one and two years
Old, and were cut back 10 within a foot of
the ground. They were cut back low TO
make them low headed. Twenty OF thirty
acres are planted annually with corn, as
much more with peanuts, and the rest is
soWn Wlth black peas, which are plOwed
under in the autumn. This green manur-
ing, together with some mari. is all the
fertiliZing the land receives. The com
pany paid $l2, 900 for the farm, and used
$4,000 i'll planting trees and for other ex-
penses.
The first dividend was paid in 1880.
Inc fruit brought $4,000, which, with the
balance in the treasury from the previous
year, gave a cash dividend of twenty per
cent on the $4,000 of capital stock. In
1881, 1000 boxes of pears were sold, with
net return Of $136S4, out OF which a fifty
per cent. dividend was paid to the stock
holders, besides ten per cent. set aside for
current expenses. Most of the trees had
been set within the last eight years, and
were still quite small. These are results
which show that there is money to be
made in pear raising when a suitable 10
cation Is selected, and the trees are well
cared for. Sometimes few pear trees
will afford quite profitable return for the
space which they occupy. Thirty Du-

such trees, well cared for, would in a few
years afford considerable aid to a me-
chanic or a day lab0rer Ia meeting his
current expenses. The trees seem to
flourish well on heavy soil, whether Of
clay or loan, but all lands devoted to pear
culture should be well drained and thor
oughly trenched Or plowed."

Heaves is a disease of the respiratory
organs caused by feeding on dusty and
musty hay and grain, and on food of bulky
character. One form Of it is sometimes
caused by hard gallOp or other severe
eXertion after a full meal. Prevention is
the only means Of avoiding constant trOu-
bic from the ailment, tor from its very ma
ture there can be no permanent cure tor
it; although it may be considerably eased
and relieved by suitable feeding, yet the
trouble will return on the first prOvOca-
tiOn. The means Of prevention suggest
themselves when once the causes are
known. Avoid dusty food Of all kinds
and musty hay or grain, or breeding from
diseased horses. for the disease is readily
inherited. To alleviate the trouble, the
food should be nutritious, but given in
condensed form, little at time but Of
ten, and regularly, say four or five times
a day. Oats, beans, wheat straw, chat,
turnips or carrots, with little hard
stalked hay free from dust and moisture,
together with clean, cured corn stalks,
have proved satisfactory; but the feed
should be chiefly gram and grass IN sum
mer. and grain and roots In winter.
Water should be given sparngly. Arsenic
in small doses is a favOrite remedy with
dealers; as in nearly all cases 1t effects a
temporary cure more or less complete, il
enables them to palm of unsOund as a
healthy animal. They usually begin with
three grains a day, increasing TO five in a
week. and continue for three or four
weeks, giving from 10 TO u grains daily
toward The end. As the appetite is NOR
bidly ravenous, leading the affected ami
NAL to eat little, etc, the bedding should
be removed by day, and the horse be muz-
zled at night. A lump of rock salt at one
side of the manger and a chunk Of chalk
at the other have proved beneficial.

successive Paintings.

Gardeners and truck farmers generally
begin all about the same time to plant,
and as their productions all mature about
the same time prices are at once reduced
by the abundance. This cannot well be
avoided at the opening Of the season; but
very many do not seem to appreciate the
advantage of successive paintings and
soon have no fresh stock to offer. This is
an oversight or neglect that robs the de-
linquent of fully half the profits of his
business. No reputable farmer or gard
ener should permit old or injured fruits or
vegetables to go into the hands OF his GUS
toners, lest they note his Indifference to
success and seek more careful dealer.
Successive paintings will enable him to
offer only fresh, crisp stock; and people
in easy circumstances will continue to
patronize him even at higher prices rath-
er than take the risk of inferior fruits
elsewhere.
