Blind japanese shampooers.

To this day all towns and villages in
Japan have their blind shampooers, who
go about alter nightfall with q strange,
musical cry. The less skillful among
the musicians become professional story
tellers. 'i,he higher official grades, which
were at one time opened to the blind,
were eagerly sought after. Those who
held them were provided with special
marks of their Office, and during civil
wars blind musicians were frequently
employed as spies. The art of shampoo
ing as practiced by the japanese blind
take nine years to learn. The pupil for
the first three years practices on his mas
ter; then he spends three years acquiring
the art of a~cupuncture, and for the re-
naming three years he is on probation,
his master receiving half his earnings.
Blind men sometimes distinguish them
selves outside their regular occupations.
One was a famous ego" player; and it is
recorded that, having beaten a prince at
the game, his antagonist, in a fit of jeal-
Gus anger, killed him, and was himself
executed for the crime. Another was o
famous author, and compiled a valuable

A Siberian Quarantine.

Nothing of interest happened to as,
writes George KEENAN,, in the Century,
until late in the evening, when, just as
re were turning up from the river into
q small peasant village, the name of which
I have now forgotten, both we and
horses were startled by the sudden ap-
pearance OF a Withholding man in a long,
tattered sheepskin coat, who, from the
shelter of d projecting cliff sprang into
the road ahead of US, shouting q hoarse
but nnintelIiaible warning, and brand
ishing in the air an armfnl of blazing
birch-bark and straw.

The cattle plague was then prevailing
extensively in the valley of the upper
Yenisei, and it appeared that round this
village the peasants had established a
sanitary Gordon with the hope of protect
ing their own live stock from c%ontagion.
They had heard of the virtues of funiga-
ton, and were subjecting to that process
every vehicle that crossed the village
limits. The .splague-guard" burned
straw, birch-bark, and other inaam nable
and smoke-producing substances around
and under our pavoska until we were
half strangled and u horses were frantic

GROWING cRops IN SUCCESSION.

The practice OF rotation of crops is
not now followed as it used to be before
the use of fertilizers became SO com
mon. II is 0 possible to feed the
land with just what it wants for any
crop, and 1t is not now considered as the
actual means of feeding crops SO much
as a vehicle through which the food is
given. Consequently, we do as we wish
In this respect, and if it is desirable to
grow and special crops we do it, only
taking care ID provide all the plant food
that the crop needs in the right form
This has made it possible to suit ou7
products to the best markets and to the
special locality, and has greatly relieved
farmers from intolerable competition.
But, under these now circumstances, it
becomes necessary that a farmer should
be able to know what any particular crop
needs and how to apply it in the right
amer. This goes to show the change
that has occurred in farm practice, and
why a farmer must be well educated in
the details of his work, and also in the
science of it, to a large extent Mes

HOW TO TREAT HORSES.

The great Axtell, who sold for $685.
600, the greatest price ever paid for a
horse, is an example of the keen sensi-
bilities of the noble animal. His driver
tells us he will not even move when
hitched up If his harness does not fe
perfectly in every respect. Horses know
as well as people when they are kindly
treated, and when used in a harsh OF
severe manner, and, like people, they
possess the spirit of revenge. They re-
member people and voices, as is shows
by the wonderful mare Goldsmith Maid,
who, after a separation Of several years
from her groom, knew his voice when
she heard him talking, although she did
not see him. The Maid at this time had
a little colt by her side and had been so
ill and cross that no one hardly dared to
come near her. Her groom hid himself
and called her. She whinnied joyfully,
and when he came from his place of con.
cealment she seemed in every way pose
sible to be trying to attract his Attentions
to her colt. He said that her joyful
whinny was as friendly a welcome.as hs
ever cared to receive, for it plainly
showed that the royal old mare consid-
cred him her friend, and also that she
had not forgotten the kind and gentle
treatment he gave her when he took care
Of her. People should eve be cruel to
horses, and it seems to me that one Of
the greatest cruelties horses have to suffer
is refining their heads so high. People
say they do it to make them look stylish,
but In reality it only makes them act and
look awkward, and besides we should
consider how tired the poor animals gee
with their necks in such a position
When you treat a horse harshiy and 70,
verely can you expect him to be kind
