"Mr. M. Stuart Cam passed through

Birmingham, where he goes to take
the managing editorship Of the Age
Herald. Mr.. Cam ten years ago was
city editor, of the Courier-Journal.
He left to take the editorship Of a
paper at his old home in Pennsyl-
vania. Since then he has taken an
occasional dip in Southern journal
ism, but for the last two years has
lived in the booming Northwest.
The climate was too severe, however,
and he is returning to a more con-
genial place Of abode"
Mr.. VIM. McEwan and Mr.. VIM.
Craik, who went to Scotland about

Of their childhood, which they had

ton of the pleasures Of their
trip. They were out eleven days
on the ocean going from New
York to Glasgow, and nine days re-
turning from Liverpool to Boston,
and neither experienced the slightest
sea sickness. Mr.. McEwan said that,
while the season here was late, it was
unusually advanced in Scotland this
year, and the whole face Of the coun-
try, made famous in history, poetry
and romance, furnished, in it's fertil-
ity and picturesqueness, the most
beautiful landscapes he ever gazed
upon. He found in Doune, his native
town, only three men whom he knew
in his boyhood days, and one of these
was at work on the same anvil and in
the same shed that he had left him
more than half century ago.

Judging clover Seed,

Prof. MenE2 has made an expert
ment to test the value of clover seed
from terminating point of view,
based upon the color of the seed.
Every observing person has noticed
that clover seed is made up Of differ
ent ceiOrs, such as green, yellow, diff
ferent shades Of brown and black.
For the purpose Of testing the germ
mating power, given number of
each kind were planted and subjected
to the same conditions in every re-
spect. The result was, that of the
green seed very few reached the
cotyledenOus stage and were very
weak. Nearly the whole Of the yell
low terminated and produced a good
stand Of healthy plants. The light
brown did very well, but not as well
as the yellow; the plants were less and
less healthy. With the dark brown
it became evident that as the brown
increased in darkness, the germinat
ing power of the seed decreased; the
black was confirmation of this last
result. 1t is Of benefit to farmers to
know this fact, and in selecting their
clover seed look for that which has
the largest proportion Of yellow seed,

An Army "Reminiscences.

"a short time before the terrible
battle of Chickamauga, our regiment
received % consignment of recruits, of
which ten or dozen were assigned to
our company. Of course it became
necessary to drill these recruits and
perfect them in the arts of way as
rapidly as possible. To this duty the
best drill sergeant was assigned. His
method was to alternate each recruit
with a veteran soldier that they might
the more readily catch on" to the nee
essary evolut1ons as we'll as the manual
of arms.
One day when our awkward squad"
was making one of their first attempts
on the manual of arms, another squad
of picked men with muskets loaded
with blank cartridges, were perform
ing some evolutions and were brought
to 'front.' immediately in front of the
recruits. The commands of ready,
aim, fire." were given, when a score of
muskets, flashed almost in the faces of
the recruits and the guides. Tine
guides, agreeable to instructions, threw
away their gums and ran for dear Life.

who stood as straight and solid as the

up to him and said my man, for your
unfinching bravery, it will afford me
great pleasure to recommend YOU for a

General Farm Notes.

BREEDERS of stock often make the
mistake of breeding their stock too
young.
STORE root crops where the tenn
perature will be low and as even as
possible.
THE cleaner the stables are kept
the less bedding will be required for
the stock.
FENCES should be of character to
suit the purposes for which they are
intended.
WITH good care a farmer can al
ways breed a better beast for himself
than he can buy.
THE first bad storm is more dam
aging to stock, if they are exposed to
it, than any other.
LIBERAL ami abundant feeding is
the most economical and is a saving
Of time in fattening.
YOUNG animals of all kinds are
very sensitive Of the treatment they
receive while growing.
DURING the fall and winter it is
usually best to keep at least one
team on the farm well Shod.
THE productive capacity of land
should determine its real value rath-
er than the price asked for it.
IF you want to make the best and
largest horses out of your colts, keep
them growing from first to last
In the fall and winter is the time
to commence feeding so as to econo-
miZe feed to the best advantage
BE prepared to take care Of the
corn as fast as it is fully ready. After
it is fully matured it goes to waste.
EVERY farmer who keeps any con-
siderable number Of stock should
have and study good doctor book.
FLOWING a little deeper in the fall
the new soil gets the benefit of the
actions of the elements during the
winter.

Pleasure.

Society is not, and ought not be,
exclusively devoted to serious CON-
Germs. The benefcent Creator Of the
universe would not have adapted hui
man beings to, the enjoyment Of his
gifts unless he intended that they
should be enjoyed. With the law
which enjOins industry comes the law
of fruition. Why should the eye be
formed to perceive natural and arti-
fetal beauty if it is not to be used
for that purpose22
Why has the capacity to make in
struments capable of emitting sweet
sounds been given if such sounds are
not to be heard? Why should the
human structure be capable of the
sweetest melody, and Of graceful &C
ton, and Of the delightful express
sion beaming from innocent and
heavenly countenances, if pleasures
from such sources were forbidden US?
Why does the grape ripen, the silk
worm toll, the annual fleece RETURN.
the diamond sparkle, the marble
yield to the chisel, and the canvas
catch and preserve the inspiration of
genius, but to waRen human desire,
animate industry, and reward with
fruition? 1t is the excess and the
abuse which are forbidden.

Keep Farm accounts.

the almanac style of farm accounts
should be out of date and ] do not
favor the cheap account books adver-
tised. More money expended in three
or four books to last for years is bet
ter economy. Each farm should have
a book for inventors, which should
be posted up each year and should
show the amount invested III land,
buildings, stock and tools and a cash
journal Of all sums received and paid
out The debit and credit columns can
both be on the same page and this
will render the cash accounts very
simple. This cash book should be
balanced monthly, and it is good
study TO compare the balance of one
month with that of another. An
other book should be one in which
to write the sales of all produce,
especially if it be sold to several
parties on credit. This can be writ
ten in from a day book in which these
accounts can be set down when de-
lVering, and when it would be i'm
possible to have a large book along.
The farmer employing much help
should keep neatly ruled time book
in which to keep each mans time,
what has been paid him and how
much is due him at the end Of
each week, month or year, according
as he is employed. These can be
bought at little cost and will save
many disputes with hired help. A
farm calendar OF daily operations or
farm dairy is also very useful
book. | have kept one for years and
would not give it up. 1t saves many
disputes as to how this was done or
when that was brought about. All
unusual events in farm routine should
be written here. w. E. PendletOn,

Boots for Young Horses.

Boots should be used in driving and
breaking young horses. even though
they are open-gaited and do not
strike Colts are looking everywhere
but where they step, and sometimes
get their feet mixed. In such case
they may hit a cord or tendon, which
is apt to disable them for weeks or
months, and sometimes for life.
Charles Marvin. who formerly trained
the Palo Alto colts, always booted the
youngsters thoroughly when they took
their work Boots are not to keep a
horse from interfering, but to protect
him when he strikes himself.

likely soon to take place. The Federal
commander and his staff, seated upon
their horses, were consulting near the
right of the line Colonel Neal Dow

dangling to the ground at his side, a
picture such as one might expect to
see in q comic paper.
"An aide approached Colonel Dow,
saying that the commander wished to
speak to him. Colonel Dow strobe

the army Colonel Dow went marching
into the aopening, his long, heavy
sword clanking on the ground behind
him, his big hat dragged down over
his head until he looked as if he might
have been drawn by Cruikshank.
"The commander heard the shout of
laughter that went up from the ranks
and looked for the cause.
"'Who is that walking out there?
he asked.
Somebody told him that it was
Colonel Dow. An aide was sent to
bring him back.
Colonel Dow, said the commander,
why did you go out there alone? Why
did you not take your regiment with
you'
Dear me, general, said the colonel,
4 beg a thousand pardons. I didn't
know you meant for me to take any
one with me. You didn't say, you
know
