Striking Sagacity of a Horse.

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

Dr.. Downes, of Lakeport, CAL, had
pet deer to which he WAS very much at
tached. Last fall it ran away to the
mountains, and that was the last he saw
of it until the spring, when one day it
appeared in the door yard, ano walking
straight to the doctor, laid its head on
his arm and seemed greatly pleased, as
was the doctor. It hung around him in
rather an urusua; way, and finally dis
appeared. The next day it came again
and acted as though it wanted the doctor
to follow it, and he did so. The deer led
him some distance from the house di'
-ectly 10 little fawn which lay hidden
in the bushep. The doctor took the lit
tie thing in his arms aud carried it home
the mother following and showing un
mistakably that that was just what sh'
wanted.

A Remarkable Shepherd Dog,

Near Salt Lake City, Utah, says an ex.
change. there lives shehrerd dog of ex-
traordinary intelligence. 1t is the dog Is
duty to drive COW to pasture on meadows
along the river known as the Jordan. A
lunch for the dog is tied up in paper
and fastened to his collar. He will drive
the cows to where there is a good pasture,
and OH hot days will then lie down in the
shadow 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
home.

Potling Tender Plants.


Thos. intending to house tender plants
will now havr little time to lose, IL the
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. u
the first place, such plants as g5,Lriums'
heliotropes, 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 time to recover from the
check in outing the roots. We should
depend upon young plants wherever pos
sible, and contine the fittings to scarce
kinds, and such as r1ay be wanted of a
large size for large vases or conspicuous
plants.
For the window culture, those taken up
are surely satisfactory for long time,
while young plants will go on towering
all the winter. The best way III taking
off is to secure all the roots possible, and
pot into as small pot as they will con
veniently go into. To eaualize the top
of the mutilated roots, reduce the Top,
both by dis-leatiug and shortening in of
the shoots. The next assistance can be
rendered by keeping the plants in II
CiUstlN piaSS' CP" mus 1''~A'
root action takes place again. The best
of all places 70 effect this is a cold frame
or pit, where, if kept shaded, almost any
lifted plant can be kept from whiting. If
| this can be done, success ia assured.
| OF course, not everybody who grows
| plants has these coRvenieLces. Then use
the best substitute TO obtain tho end
Any method that will keep still moist
air around the plants will meet this
Bright sunshine and winds are what viii
exhaust the moisture from the plants
faster than their mutilated condition car
pump it up. Stay this, and the secret Ii
obtained. OF course, frequent syringins
is nything in fact to prevent
evaporation from the leaves.
Quite number of plants have fin'
fibrous roots; with such, lifting or trans
planting is easy enough. The oaks ans
hickory among trees, are hard to trans
plant. They have few fbers, and wha
they have are long distance from tn
hole of the trees. Some trees have net
work of fire roots; these transplant easily
With care any plant can be transplantad
without it, sure failure will result wit
many.

OLD-1IME DRUMMERS.
How Business Was Done by the Boys of =
Quarter offs Century Ago

How Business Was Done by the Boys Of
Quarter of a Century Ago
"It was in July, 1862" said Francis
Etheridge, of Sprague, Warner d. Co,
"that first went ON the road as a com
merc cial traveller. That was twenty five
years ago. There have been many changes
in the way :he business ia done-for in
stance, nobody in those days ever thought
of carrying twelve pounds of sans pies.
Practically we carried no samples at all.
We would go TO q customer and talk bust
ness over with him, and he would tell us
how much sugar he wanted and at what
price, or what coffee he wanted; or the
number of kegs of nails. Then, too, in
those times we only made two trips in the
year. Nowadays competition has changed
all of that. man must take with him at
least seventy pounds of samples. The
purchaser wants to see exactly what is the
quality of the goods he is buying, with
his own eyes. The salesman must be
able 30 show him, there in his store, Just
what he Is selling, and why it is better
and cheaper than the buyer can elsewhere
gst. Instead of twice year the pur
chaser must be visited twice 4 month.
The explanation of all this ia that the re-
tail dealer has been forced by competi-
tion to learn how to buy and sell more
cheaply. You can understand this better
perhaps when tell you that when | first
went on the road practically, everybody
sold to took four and six months time to
pay; now more than half the goods We
sell are to purchasers who take their dis
count for cash. This work is certainly
very much harder now than it was quar-
ter of Il century ago; competition did
put all of his time if Re wants to succeed"
"Bow do saleries compare in 1868 AID
1887"
"The average is much higher now than
it was then. OF course l speak only for
the Wholesale trade in groceries, and in
our trade believe that fully one-half the
! men on the road get $4,000 year and
more. OF course this figure includes ex-

are much more than twice as good now as
they were then. But you must remember
that in the '60s We were all working ia tn

these speculative minds, a leading Chica-
go operator, said, "It would not be a good
thing to have a great advance in wheat
Just now. This is tia time for the crop
SO move, and the advance will come
later" Precisely. It will come, we sup
pose, when the brlk of the crop is out Of
the hands of the farmers who made 1t.
l. There has been persistent effort to
keep prices down. Nevertheless, No. z
red winter wheat touched s61 cents, and
No. spring, s5cents per bushel recently.
1t ia reported upon the authority OF II.
d. Thompson, of Duluth, who certainly
is we'll 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
the spring wheat was in the milk and
certainly uninjured, a fair crop in the
northwest is looked for.
The advice from Europe, while con
ficting to considerable degree, indicate
that there will without doubt be short
age there. $1O0,000,000 worth of wheat
will be marketed it is reported, BY
France. British wheat advices indicate O
growing shortage. Added to this, the al
most utter failure of the potato crop IL
the British isles, will tend to increase the
demand for breadstuffs. 1t is not ye
time for the crops to begin to NOV,
across the ocean. and the rather blint
statement that the Russian crop vii
cover the losses in England and France
may, we think, be taken with many grain
of allowance. We believe that sount
wheat will reach 81 per bushel in Chicago
before snow flies.
We also believe that our export whea
will not reach large figures. The ad
vance will not reach famine prices from
present advices but the farmer will ye
get fair prices, if he can wait awhile
The gradual advance in prices notwith
standing the efforts to keep them dow
until the crops shall have been moved
undoubtedly strongly points this way.
