An Accumulated Dividend.

The late lamented Samuel W. Van
Culin of Philadelphia was fond of re-
lating the following incident of his
boyhood experience:
His mother placed him with family
of friends on farm in Delaware. At
dinner, the day after his arrival, he
declined turnips, whereupon the good
lady of the household, thinking that
he WAS anticipating the dessert, said,
with nod towards the centre of the
table:
''If thee doesn't eat turnips thee
can't have pie.
But Samuel's aversion was genuine.
and he held out from day to day till,
on the seventh day, the just woman
said, Samuel, / see thee can't eat
turnips; here is thy pie" as she took
from the cupboard the seven pieces of
pie he had forfeited during the week.

An Indians Early Hardships.

One of the earliest recollections of
my adventurous childhood, says DIR.
Eastman, the educated Sioux Indian, in
st. Nicholas, is the ride had on pony's
side. 1t seems strange to think of rid
ing in this manner; nevertheless, the
Indian mode oflife made it possible. /
was passive in the whole matter. A lit
tie girl cousin of mine was Iut in bag
and suspended from the horn of an In
dian saddle but her weight must be bal
anced, or the saddle would not remain
on the animals back. Therefore,
also was put into sack, and made to
keep both the saddle and the girl in
their proper position! l scarcely OBJ
jected to the manner of the ride, for 1
had very pleasant game of peek-a-boo
with the little girl, until we came to
big snow drift, where the poor beast
was stuck fast and began to lie down.
Then it was not so nice
This was the convenient and primi-
tive way in which some mothers
packed their children for winter Jour
neys. However cold the weather might
be, the inmate of the fur-lined sack
was usually very comfortable-at least
/ used to think 80. believe 1 was
treated to all the precarious Indian
conveyances, and, as boy, 1 enjoyed
the dog-travois ride as much as any.
These travois consisted of a set of
rawhide strips securely lashed to the
tent-poles, which were harnessed to
the sides of the animal as if he stood
between shafts, while the free ends
were allowed to drag on the ground.
Both ponies and large kind of dogs
were used as beasts of burden, and
they carried in this way the smaller
children as well as the baggage.
This mode of travelling for children
was possible only during the summer;
and as the dogs were sometimes unre-
liable, the little ones were exposed to
a certain amount of danger. For in
stance, whenever a train of dogs had
been travelling for long time, almost
perishing with the heat and their
heavy loads, glimpse of water would
cause them to forget everything else
for it. Some of them, in spite of the
screams of the women, would swim
with their burdens into the cooling
stream, and l was thus not infre-
quently compelled to partake of an
unwilling bath.

FARM AND GARDEN FoTEs.

Roots are a cheap winter feed for
swine.
Middlings is one of the best single
foods for hogs.
If you wish to succeed as breeder
never sell your best fillies. Keep
them for brood mares.
There is money in fruit if the
grower will bend his energies to pro-
duce first class quality.
An excellent way to make more val
liable farm is the establishment of Il
good and thrifty orchard.
For butter breed COW from stock

milk breed from stock noted Tor
much milk giving.
Don't allow the strong, robust
weanings to rob the weaker ones.
They are pretty sure to do SO when
"lloWeu tO run together.
In his experiments Sir j. b. Lawes
found that the pig utilized far
greater per cent. of its food than
either the OK or the sheep.
Always let your horse face the OBJ
ject of his fear; and, when frightened,
remember, the more slowly you move
him the more control you have over
him.
Trees may now be transplanted un-
til the buds have swollen and started
to grow in the spring. So long as the
life of the tree is dormant, transplant
ing can be done with impunity.
In pruning, all saw cuts should be
made just so close to the trunk or to
side branch as to leave no dead pro-
lection, but not SO close as to cause
stoppage of the ascending sap through
drying of the wood laid bare by the
cut.
By a thorough system the profit
from an orchard can be doubled. OF
course, this means good deal of adj
ditional care and attention, and the
only, question to be considered is
whether or not the increased revenue
will pay for the extra trouble. In
most cases it generally does. Why
should it not in yours?
In order to be wholly successful a
farmer should make his plans long
time in advance of the day when they
must be put into operation. The best
way is to mature plan of operations
that will require some years for fully
carrying out. This brings better re.
suits than the changeable way thai
some have Of trying one way this
year aud another the next.

"Did you ever notice the peculiarity
of saw-fish's weapons" asked Natur-
alist Woodman, "or see him strike his

WINTER CUTTINGS.

In the winter time cuttings from
shrubs and small fruits should be made
for early spring planting. In this
way trees and shrubs can be greatly
increased in numbers, and new, large
orchards can be given an early start
without any expense other than the
abor required to m AXE the cuttings and
plant them.
The various methods adopted by
florists to increase the number of their
shrubs and trees are all simple, such
as the soft-wood cuttings in the green
house in the winter and layering in
the summer. But the hardwood prop
agation in fall or spring is the method
that should be considered at this time
of the year. If the cuttings are to be
planted out in the spring they may be
made any time this winter. Where
winters are severe the planting should
never take place until spring, but
where the weather is not very cold it
does not matter much whether the
paintings are made in the fall, winter
or spring. The cuttings that are
gathered in the winter should be tied
in loose bundles, and be set in damp
sand in frost-proof cellar where they
will keep until needed in the spring.
As soon as the soil dries out in the
spring they should be planted.
The young shoots of last season
should be selected for these cut
tings, and they should he cleft from
the main bushes so that they will be
about one foot ong. These are nearly
all buried in the spring in deep, rich
soil, leaving only four inches of the
tips above the ground. The soil must
be trampled down firmly around them.
They will begin to start almost i'm
mediately, and a young orchard of
trees or shrubs will soon prove great
blessing. Not only fruit-bearing trees
will succeed in this way, but nearly all
shade trees. 1t is probably the easiest
way of starting young trees that can
be devised.
Ounce orchards should be started
every few years if good crop is ex-
pected annually, and there is no easier,
quicker and surer way than selecting
the cuttings in the winter months,
when there is plenty of time,
and then starting out early in the
spring. Meanwhile, the land on which
they have been started can be planted
the same as usual for season or two
afterward. L American Cultivator.

ing the supply for spring use, some
thought should be given to this sub
ject. A good deal of study has been
given to the examination of seeds by
the German experiment stations, the
result of which has been published in
the reports. The amount of impurity
discovered is amazing. Professor +.
Noble of the Saxony station reports
that of grass seeds, the botanical ex.
animation showed that only thirty per
cent. of the samples corresponded with
what the labels on the packages called
for.
lt is n common experience among
farmers that the results of the grass
seedlings do not come nearly up to ex.
pectations, and the disappointments are
such as to lead farmers directly away
from their actual causes. The want OF
fertility of the soil is generally sup.
posed to account sufficiently for the
failures, but in so many cases. there are
failures under the very best manage.
ment that something else seems to be
responsible for the defects in the
growth of the grass, clover included,
but not to the same extent Not one
farmer in ten thousand makes any eff
fective examination of the seeds he
purchases, but cows them without
question or suspicion. The bare
patches and the frequent weeds in
time tell the story, but it is told to un-
appreciative ears or eyes. Some other
cause is accepted without any inquiry,
and so the thing continues year after
year.
very simple method of examina-
ton is described in the report referred
to. 1t consists of a double tube of
tin, one sliding within the other, each
having openings corresponding with
each other in the two tubes. The in
ner tube turns by handle, and as the
tube is pushed to the bottom of bag
of seed, the inner one is turned until
the holes in it correspond with those
in the outer. Then the different di-
visions in the inner tube are filed
with seed from the different parts of
the bag, and by turning the handle
the openings are closed and the sam.
pies are drawn out. BY laying the
tube on table and opening the holes
the seeds are turned out in separate
heaps, ready for examination by the
mngnifying glass. If it is not desired
to get separate samples, the tube may
be open through its whole length.
For grains, the tube is provided with
larger holes, and should be an inch in
diameter or more. i New York Times.
