work is not already done. As We have
often shown in the columns of the
Prairie Farmer, young-rooted plants are
better to depend upon for next years
stock than many of the old plants In
the first place, such plants as gerauiuus,
heiiotropes, coleus. and other fast grow
ing plants, if taken up, have to oe cut
back to succeed at all, and even then it
tates some tiue to recover from the
check IN cutting the roofs. We should
depend upon young plants wherever pos
siole, and confne the fittings to scarce
kinds, and such as RAY be wanted of
large size for large vases or conspicuous
plants.
For the window culture, those taken up
are surely satisfactory for a long time
while young plants will go on towering
all the winter. The best way IN taking
OF Is to secure all the roots possible and
pot into as small pot as they will con
veniently go into. To eaual,zs the top
of the mutilated roots, reduce the top.
both by dis-leafng and shortening in of
the shoots. The next assistance can be
rendered by keeping the plants in a
closel! confined place, kept moist until
root-action takes place again. The best
q
or pit, where, If kept shaded, almost any
lifted plant can be kept from whiting. If
this can be done, success is assured.
OF course, not everybody who grows
plants has these coGyenieL ces. Then use
the best substitute 70 obtain the end
Any method that will keep e still moist
ar around the plants will meet this.
Bright sunshine and winds are what will
exhaust the moisture from the plants
faster than their mutilated condition can
pump it up. Stay this, and the secret is
Obtained. OF course, frequent Swinging
Is desirable-anything in fact to prevent
evaporation from the leaves.
Quite number of plants have fine
hbrous roots; with such, lifting or trans
planting is easy enough. The oaks and
hickory among trees, are hard to trans
plant, They have few fibers, and what
they have are q long distance fror, the
hole of the trees. Some trees have a net
work of fire roots; these transplant easily.
With care any plant can be transplanted
without it, sure failure will result with
many.

Log Cabin Logic.
RrRxn and Sraint


The powerful engine, with its wonder
ful propeiling power coupled 70 the long
tram full freightsd with the richest fab,
res of the intellectual looms of the cen

r-ss of this mighty force, when once

The American with Draw and brain
does rot see his necessity for titles of
nobility, does not care for elevstion by
descent, ne can reach ont and pluck the
stars.
But with brawn or brain impaired, q
mau is badly handicapped in the mad
race for success which is the marked char
acteristic of the present sge.
The physical system is most eItricate
piece OF machinery. 1t ought TO be kept
we'll regulated, so that it will work har-
m"niously in sll its parts, then it Is
capable Of an immense amount of work.
It's said that watch, If expected to
keep perfect time, muss be wound daily.
1t will not keep good time unless it rms
regular" More men break down because
they don't run regular" than for any
other reason.
1t is claimed by physicians that few
men are killed by hard work 1t is TO the
irregularities of modern social life that
the high death rate is dse. Men burn
their candle at both ends then wonder
Why it burns out so quickly.
The main thing IN keeping the human
machine in good working order is to keep
the regulator sill right. THE blood Is

Crops and Prospects.

The Prairie Farmer lately warned its
readers against being gulled by what is
printed in tse interests of board OF
trade and other speculative authorities
in relation TO the coming price CT grais.
1t is quite safe to do so now. One of
these speculative minds, a leading Chica-
go operator, said, at would not be a good
thing to have a great advance in wheat
Just now. This is the time for the crop
so move, and the advance will come
later" Precisely. 1t will come, We sup
pose, when the bulk of the crop is oat of
the hands of the farmers who II ade it.
There has been persistent effort to
keep prices down. Nevertheless, No. =
red winter wheat touch d SCI, cents, aud
No. 2 spring, Scents per busnel recently.
1t is reported upon the authority of b.
d. Thompson, of Duluth, who certainly
is well informed, that ell spring wheat
south of the main line of the Northern
Pacific railway, and probably 20 miles
north, is safe from frost, and notwith
standing the damage further north when
TIE spring wheat was in the milk and
certainly uniniured, a fair crop in the
northwest is locked fer.
The advice from Europe, while con-
hicting 10 considerable degree, iudicats
that there will without doubt be short
age there. 800, goo, 600 worth of wheat
will be marketed it is reported, by
France. British wheat advices indicate
growing shortage. Added &c this, the al
most utter failure of the potato crop in
the British isles, will tend TO increase the
demand for bresdstuffs. It is not yet
time for the crops 10 begin to move
across the ocean. and the rather blind
statement that the Russian crop Will
cover the losses IN England and France,
may, we think, be aiken with many grain
of allowance. We believe that sound
wheat will reach 81 per bushel in Chicago
before snow flies
We also believe that our export wheat
will not reacn large figures. The ad-
vsnce will not reach famine prices from
present advicss but the farmer will yet
get fair prices, II he can wait awhile.
The gradual advance n prices notwith-
stard ding the efforts 10 keep them down
until the crops shall have been moved,
undoubtedly strongly points this way.

Striking Sagacity of a Horse.

A remarkable illustration of the sagac-
ity of the horse, says the Bennington,
England, Mail reaches us from elliott
road, Edgbaston. A man named Nathan
Gilbey, a coal dealer and haulor, rents a
field there, in which a horse and goat
heve been in the habit of grazing. Re
Gently a gang of young roughs from the
Icknield Port-road amused themselves by
throwing stones at the goat, and some of
the most cowardly of the ruffisns beat it
with stick. Whenever the goat has
been attacked in this way, the horse has
always raced to its rescue, and few days
ago he seized one young rascle by the
coat collar and flung him clear over the
hedge into the road.

luRch for the dog is tied up in paper
and fastened to his collar. He will drive
the cows to where there is good pasture,
and OH hot days will then lie down in the
sha low she casts, moving along as the
COW moves, and thus keeping constantly
in the shade. He does not touch his
lunch till noon, when he slips the collar
from his head, tears off the paper and
eats the food. He will then with his paw,
push the collar back over his head, and
toward evening will bring his charge

1t filed me. and thrilled me.
As that in the air
The hearts of the shepherds
The Lord being nigh
When the song of the angels
Drop't down from the sky.
Whence came it: Who knoweth
The wind where il bioweth.
The home of the Eros king
Who khoweth, who knoweth:
When Truth takes her lyre
And sings from the blue,
The soul that a listen
Grows musical too.
When Beauty from darkness
Breaks forth like a sun,
And Nature, TRANSPORTED,
Is heaven begun.
The red and gold splendor
Too bright for a dream
God gave il, the Fountain,
We battle in the stream.
