She Was Very Deaf.

There was once an old lady of Boston
who was very deaf and being very old SHE
did not read much. One Fourth of July
the Boston artillery fired hundred gun,

sat in her room near the Common, knit

ANIMALS STRANGE TRAITS.

NnturaIists stiu Puzzled Over Many OF

Do dogs hate butchers7 This question
was debated in an extended manner a
number of wears ago in Nature, and the
general concensus of opinion was, to put it
mildly, that there was want of confidence
exhibited on tho part Of dogs in their init
macy with butchers In general. The sight
of beef displayed on thete hooks could,
however, not have been distasteful to the
dog. 1t must have been the man in charge
of the ribs and briskets who was anti
sympathetic to the dog.
Reasoning it out, as would Professor
Romanes, it could not have been primarily
the particu smell of the butcher which
was distasteflll to the animal as associa-
ton of the man with kicks and cudgcl-
ings freely bestowed in checking certain
kleptomaniac impulses natural to the dog

Washington q Cheap Place to Live In.

Washington strikes the stranger from
the North as decidedly a cheap place to
live in. Meat costs thirty per cent. less
than in Boston, and marketing of other
sorts is u lower in about the. same proper
ton. There are only two dear things here,
apparantly-ice and ashes The former
is expensive, because it has to be brought
all the way from kennebec, or manufac-
tured artifcially. The latter costs ten
cents a barrel to get rid of. The city
will not take them away, and SO, to dis
pose of them, one must needs engage the
services of one of a number of colored
gentlemen who have created, by an un-
~derstanding among themselves, q sort of
fash trust They. will take nothing
less than ten cents a sbarrel for removing
your ashes in d~urnp-carts, which they
drive about the town, making such coll
lections. You mustitake your choice be-
tween employing them and storing your
ashes in the cellar. Count up the num-
Der of barrels of ashes your domestic es-

WISE WORDS.

Stills are no betterin conversation than
in a foot race.
Folly must hold its tongue while wear
ing the wig of wisdom.
The greatest art of an able man is to
know how to conceal his ability.
If young men will not believe in them
selves, no man or woman can believe In
them.
More failures are to be attributed to
efforts misdirected than to the want Of
exertion.
It is always safe to learn, even from
manifestation safe to instruct,
ever u friends.
One of the most effectual ways Of
pleasing and of making ones self loved
is to be cheerful.
Don't talk about what you are "gefng"
to do; then, if you fail to accomplish it,
nobody will know.
We often console ourselves for being
unhappy by a certain pleasure that We
find in appearing SO.
It isn't a very nice thing for a young
man, or any one for that matter, to ar1le
in a supesior way at ignorance.
Treat all men and women considerably
and you will be surprised at the dividends
that come to you daily and yearly.
A man will be behind while he follows
aleader, and viii comprehend the n OF
his own existence, only when he goes In
dependent.
No one need to be afraid Of IN fgnof-
ant man, for it is the influence of the
man that knows how to make him really
dangerous.
He who can heroically endure adver-
sity will bear prosperity with equal great
ness of soul; for the mind that cannot be
detected by the former is not likely tobe
transported with the latter.
The world is unjust in its judgments,
SO it % in it's requfgsls. Speedily effaces
the memory of fhe greatest services; and
when we can repeat them no more, we
are neglected and thrown aside.

how to behave may possibly teach q viz

PROTECTION THAT PAYS.

Mulching wheat fields in the fall after
seeding has been much experimental
with under our observation, and it is de-
cided TO be eminently advisable. Fine
material, thinly and evenly spread, generI
ally prevents winter-killing, and it in
creases the crop over that which is Meth
er mufched nor affected by alternate
freezing and thawing. For this purpose
buckwheat and other chaff is excellent;
the partly rotted refuse of old stack-bot-
toms, and any short litter raked up about
the barns and sheds, and short clover and
buckwheat straw answer well. Long
straw may be better than nothing if
thinly spread, but that is a difficult mat
ter. A person tried it, pat on too much,
and the wheat ame up spindling and the
crop was poor. Long straw chaffed by
running it through cutter would be e1-
cellent. It is suggested that forest
leaves, especially if partly rotted, would
be as good as anything. The mulching
should be done Immediately after seed

FApM AND GARDEN NOTES.

A small amount of salt should oS5Ga-
s~ionally be allowed in the soft food,
should any be given.
Managed properly Guineas are ever
lasting layers, and their flesh is a unite
of the turkey and pheasant.
Waldo F. Brown, suggests that posts
which must bear the strain of stretched
wire fencing be set with cement. "a
Sunfower seed properly used makes
admirable food for the hens. Mix it
with other grain and feed occasionally.
Everyone is studying up science. Sci
entifc farming is the rage. Wonder if a
little science in the training of boys
wouldn't be a good thing.
If you failed to put turnips, celery OF
fodder corn on the ground from which
you took the early peas, do not fail to
keep the weeds from going to seed.
Don't wait till the close of the season,
then take some little 'snubbin" of o
cucumber for seed-select now a nice
specimen and let it grow and ripen for
seed.
A gentleman says he never bothers with
his setting hens. He gives them enough
feed to last a week, and water every few
DAYS, as he thinks of it. This we call un-
wise.
Don't let earth or rubbish accumulate
around the sils of the barn or sheds; 1t
you do it will not be many years before
the expense and trouble of a new sill will
have to be incurred.
A farmer who needs two teams during
the season of busy work may find much
more profit in having a yoke of oxen and a
span of horses than in four horses; a
question dependent on attending condi-
lions that he should examine carefully
with the purpose of deciding wisely.
Good racks for holding hay for cattle,
horses and sheep will W a great deal
of money and hay over the wasteful plan
of feeding the hay on the ground or In
troughs where it can be pulled out and
trampled under foot. In feeding any
kind of food to any kind of stock, avoid
a Wasteful system.
The cry is for a hog with the old time
constitution. Well, we can't have him
till we go back to the old time methods,
and besides what do we want with him
anyway The hog of the presentday has
sufficient constitution to carry him tothe
pork barrel. All the trouble is he is not
given a chance to take care of what nature
gives MIN. It is the keeping and feeding
that kills the hog Of the present day,
rather than poor constitution.
