 A farmer who had considerable ex- perience with breeding live stock, says that three colts can be grown on the same feed that is required for tive calves Chicago Tribune.
 Corn and potatoes may often be top-dressed to advantage for planting, providing fine manure is used. The cultivation of these crops during the season will mix the manure with the soil much more perfectly than it could be if plowed under.-Prairie Farmer.
 The American AqriculturiSt says that 'buckwheat is one of the most val uable grains both for human food and for feeding animals. It is only slightly inferior to rye in nutritious matter, having much the same character as a food, and containing very nearly as much nutriment as oats.
 One of the meanest of mean weeds is plantain. It can not be eradicated completely except by measures equiva- lent to wearing out, root, leaf and branch; then seeds are left ill the soil to make repetition of the process neces- sary before extermination of the pest is effected. L. Cincinnati Times.

An infusion of the leaves of the beech tree, used as lotion, will give relief l have known of three severe cases to have been cured by this simple remedy. In my own case took the yellow dock for three months.
 You should keep disused coal-oil barrel half full of the strongest lye, into which to drop every bone that comes from your table, or else pack them in alternate layers with unslacked lime. They will become so brittle that you may have them broken fine and spread them broadcast; and the lye, if you have used that, can be diluted with many times its bulk of water and be applied wherever potash would be serviceable. 1 This liquid, or soapsuds, is the surest possible dressing for caulifower and cabbage.-M.

Mistakes of Life.

Somebody has condensed the mistakes of life, and arrived at the conclusion that there are fourteen of them. Most people would say, if they tod the truth, that there was no limit to the mistakes of life; that they were like the drops in the ocean, or the sands of the shore in number, but it is well to be accurate. Here, then, are fourteen great mistakes. 1t is a great mistake to set up our own standard of right and wrong, and judge people accord ngly; to measure the en- ioyment of others by our own; to expect uniformity of opinion in this world; to look for judgment and experience in youth; to endeavor to mould all dispo- stions alike; to yield to immaterial trifes; to look for perfection in our own actions; to worry ourselves and others with what can not be remedied; not to alleviate all that needs alleviation as far as lies in our power; not to make allow ances for the infrmities of others; to consider every thing impossible that we can not perform; to believe only what our finite minds can grasp; to expect to be able to understand every thing.

What This Parsonage Is Expected to DO
 for His Masters Birds.
 A falconer who has the exclusive care of half dozen trained birds, whether falcons or hawks or both, finds little time hanging heavily on his hands, By the time he has moved out his charges to the lawn and set their nocturnal abode in order, he will have got an ap' petite for his own breakfast. Then there is the business ot feeding those hawks which are not to fly, and perhaps exercising most of them to the lure, in the manner so graphically described by Izaak Walton. Then the bath or baths must be filled, and the hawks which are to be indulged with that luxury moved to place where they can jump in and splash about to their hearts delight. Then the plan of the day s campaign must be arranged, having regard to wind and weather, and the chance of where the quarry is most likely to be found, and when the days work in the field is over the falconer's day is not nearly done. There is the feeding up" of the hawks that have not been allowed, or have not had time, to ''take their pleasure" on the quarry. Every thing depends upon netting out to the hungry creatures just that quantity of food which will keep them in full health and strength, but without overgorging them or making them inactive on the morrow. If a feather has been broken by some acci- dent during the day it must be mended at once; if a jess is worn out it must be replaced. The feet and peaks of all the hawks should be cleansed, their hoods seen to, and the lures made ready for use on another day. Nor let it be for gotten that there is such thing as losing hawk. When this disaster happens the country IS secured till dark in search of the truant, and if not found, the falconer, before break of day, is again on the lookout with his lure in hand. A successful fal coner lies on no bed of roses. OnIy constant attention will make his hawks fond of him. But when they are so, he stands among them a friend among faithful friends. At a sign from him they will jump toward him; nay, at his first appearance-in the
 words of the old sportsman-''they re- ! ioice." The char acter of each of them for hawks differ in character as much i as men and women-is as well known
 to him as his own. He knows what can or cannot be done with each; and thus
 he is still able to carry on the most diff
 ficult of all sports without the dissap-
 pointments that have frightend away from it less patient and persevering ! furns = En1nLiSh LILnStrnkPG MnnnziRe.

A VENERABLE CHURCH.

Interesting Features of the Old Mexican
 Town Across the Rio Grande.
 In Paso del Norte there is cathedral three hundred and twenty-five years old, built by Spanish Jesuits. It is not that the general plan is elaborate; on the contrary, it is one of beautiful appro- priateness and simplicity offering in this respect lesson to the modernS. The walls are of adobe. plain and straight; and neither the walls nor the massive timbers are any the worse for their three centuries of wear. But the heavy woodwork everywhere is beauti- fully carved. In the cathedral are rec ords of great historic value, reaching back hundreds of years. Some of the decorations and religious emblems are presents from the monarchs of Spain. The old church is well worth visit from any tourist, particularly the student of art and history. But to tourist who has never seen MeXi- can town it is not the only object of in- terest by any means. There are the quaint streets of ancient adobe houses, with dark-eyed senoritas peeping from the windows-whe there are any or through the cracks of the doors. Some of the senoritas are very handsome, and not adverse to little harmless Irritation with the fair-haired son of the North. They listen with charming attention while he says fine things in tongue they do not understand. The town of Paso del Norte has population of about seven thousand-pretty fair for Mexican town. But thirty years ago it was a city of thirty thousand souls. "A thriving city," we should have called it in the United States. What has become of this large population no one can tell. They have folded their tents like the Arabs, and silently stolen aWay,-O Outing.

Fred and Willie Gerstner, aged nine and eleven, tired of their home in Cincinnati, so they packed a big basket with provisions, stole three dollars and @ pistol from their father, and started out to see the world. And they saw it, for three weeks, sleeping in barns, sell ing newspapers and blacking boots in Dayton and Toledo, and were in fair way to become perfect tramps when the advertisement of their frantic father lent to their apprehension and return to the parental roof. They say that they have had all the tramplng they want Cincinnati Times.

Many a case supposed to be radical lung disease is really one of liver complaint and indigestion, but, unless that diseased liver can be restored to healthy action, it will so clog the lungs with corrupting mat ter as to bring on their speedy decay, and then indeed we have consumption, which is scrofula of the lungs, in its worst form. Nothing can be more happily calculated to nip this danger in the bud than IS Dr Pierce's ''Golden Medical Discovery" By druggists.

THE WEATHER..
Another. Unprecedented Freak.of the Ee.

The weather this winter seems to
have tried itself at doing unprecedented
things, and everlastingly laying the old
est inhabitant in the back round. That
over wise individual, who was won't to
astonish the natives with stories OF won
deriul freaks of the elements, too long
ago for anybody but him to remember,
has been efiectually silenced. He now
knows no more than a six weeks old
baby, and for real doubly condensed
experience on extreme weather points
must confess himself behind the new
conner.
Two weeks ago the mercury dropped
some several degrees lower than it had
ever been known to drop in this latitude
before, and for two or three days we ex-
perienced some of that delightful frig-
| idity we had been accustomed to read
about as happening in the neighborhood
Of Manitoba
| Now comes the snow storm OF Tuesday
and Tuesday night completely ecllpsing
all former snow storms Of which there
is any memory in this part of the world.
70 inches deep has been always con-
sidered quite heavy fall in this lati-
tude but a gentleman who has taken the
pains to measure estimates that the
ground is now covered TO the average
depth of % inches. In some places tbs
snow is drlfted IN banks at least five
feet high.
All locomotion is considerably i'm
peded and pedestrians end progress al
most impossible where a track has no
been made by previous travel.

Perilous Ride.

Some young gentleman who drove
out to the passenger depot in ahack Tues
day night, describe their trip as having
been quite an adventure and say they
are not pining for any more experience
OF like nature. The darkness and
driving clouds of snow blinded both
the hackmen and the horses so that it
was next to impossible to keep the veh'-
Gle in the middle of the street. 1t
several times ran into bitches, against
lamp-posts &c, SO that the occupants
were kept in constant dread OF serious
accident. One young man is reported
to have prayed and its said he promised
to lead a better life if the good Lord
would spare him that time. We fear
however it was a case like that reported
in the old Scotch ryme:
"When the de'il got sick.
The dell saint wad be.
When the dell got well,
The dell of a saint was he"
