Boating For Pleasure.

A party of four young men In row
boat got into the mill stream, above the
mill bridge yesterday afternoon and were
going to perdition very fast, with all sails
spread and their mouths open, yelling
like ghost dancers. They saved them
selves lust in time by catching a pro-
jecting board They launched the boat
out and then embarked below the bridge,
and in a short voyage of few yards the
boat upset and all had a ducking. They
then dragged the boat out and gave up
their nautical pastime.

Aroma and Color of Honey.

By the color of the honey and the
aroma therefrom. an experienced bee
keeper can determine the source from
whence it came Thus, 1t Is quite easy
to tell buckwheat honey by its very
dark look. and by its strong and pun
gent odor. Honey-dew has the same
dark look. but lacks the odor or aroma
In fact, there is little or no aroma
about honey-dew- For this reason no
bee-keeper need be deceived as to the
source of such odorless honey. Aroma
is term employed to designate those
substances. the extreme minute par
ticles of which are supposed to affect
tue organs of smell so as to produce
peculiar odors- The particles difused
through the atmosphere and affecting
the olfactory nerves-f the theory of
particles of matter be correct-must
indeed be extremely minute, yet not
so much so but that we easily detect
the smell from a field of any honey
bearing plant or flower. These odors
have generally been supposed to de-
pend upon essential oilS-Rural Home.

adopting this mode on adhesive or

These different methods have various
advantages, but it should be borne in
mind that the plants exhaust the soil
more or less, and require the annual
application of manure or fertilizers.
But the most perfect growth. and es-
pecially required for marketing, and
berries of the finest quality are to be
obtained only by making new beds by
transplanting into rich. fresh, well-pre-
pared soil. If done as soon as the crop

CUTTING CORN FODDER.
A Feed That Keeps Live stock IN 0ooe

a Feed That Keeps Live stock in Good
Condition in the Winter.
Good corn fodder is one of the cheap
est and best rough feeds on the farm
In making the necessary grain the 1ooS
der is grown so that the only item OF
exnense is the cutting, shocking up and
banlino oul Yet when there is a con-
siderable acreage this is quite task, so
much SO that in many cases a sumclent
Quantity cannot be gathered at the
right stage to be of the best quality
without hiring extra help. To a con-
siderable extent the quality or vaiue OF
feed is largely determined by the age
at which it is cut and the manner OF
curing and storing away.
As with much other farm work, ma
chinery viii not only lessen the labor,
but afford much better opportunity
of getting the work done in good sea-
son. With a corn harvester, two men
and one horse will put from six to
eight acres of corn in the shock, and in
this way a considerable quantity of
good feed can be secured in short
time and at a comparatively small
cost. Too much fodder is allowed to
get too ripe before cutting. So far as
is possible it Will be best to begin cut

The size of the shocks should be de-
termined largely by the management

| fodder is to stand in the field until 1T Is

if it is to be hauled in and stored under

be implicitly relied on. In the bright
lexicon of human experience there Is
nothing so uncertain as a sure thing,
but the verdict of New York jury in a
murder case is the most mysterious and
incomprehensible thing that can be inn
agined. You might as well try to guess
the price of butter from the weight of
the calf of the COW that produces the
milk as to predict the verdict OF New
York jury from the evidence in the case.
The good people of New York have
come to the conclusion that the admin
istration of criminal justice is more in a
nature of a comedy than anything else.
The bad people, by which term the
criminal classes are meant, have found
this out some time ago. A New York
Jury seems to be body of men organ

smartest lawyer. G
The infection of death as a penalty
for murder has been practically abol-

Darlington called, 1.-The opposing sex. T"
Of late years quite number of females
in New York, who had grievances
against men, promptly rectifed them
by shooting large apertures in the an
atomical structures of the offending
representatives of the male sex with
fatal results. In the last two cases
sympathetic juries acquitted the fair
shootists with such promptness that it
would not have created surprise if the
| jurymen had Clipped in and presented
the acquitted woman with silver
