a Grateful Stork.

A story of a stork is told in Ger
man paper About the end of March,
1891, a pair of storks took UP their
abode on the roof of the schoolhoues
in the village OF Poppenhofen. One of
the birds appeared to be exhausted
by its long journey and the bad wealth
er it had passed through. On the morn
ing after its arrival the bird was found
by the schoolmaster lying on the
ground before the school door. The
man, who, like all Germans, consid-
cred it piece OF good luck to have
the stork's nest on his house, picked
up the bird and took it indoors. He
nursed it carefully and when it was
convalescent used every morning. to
carry it to the fields short distance
from the house, where it's mate ap-
peared regularly at the same hour
to supply it with food. The stork is
now cured; and every evening it
flies down from the roof and bravely
walks by the side of its friend from
the scholhouse to the meadows, ac-
companied by wondering crowd Of
children.

Plymouth Rocks.

There seem to be bit few other va
rieties in the product Of american
skill in breeding that can be put On
the markets l.. this courtr-' VIII so
much pride as the Plymouth Rocks.
There are only two or three others
that are received from or shores by
foreign fanciers with such favor The
strongest proof Of the superiority OF
this breed is ttiat it he's successfully
stood the boom Of a score Of new vari-
cites and has met and vanCuished ip-
ferior ones ard still lives. Other
breeds have their boons. bit the
Plymouth Rock keeps on its steady
course, winning greater and greater
popularity with each succeeding year.
This favor has been won by merit,
and by merit it retains what it has
won. 1t is the farmers favorite for
meat, size, laying qualities, vigor and
quickness Of growth. There are few
breeds that will not suffer by compari-
son. The difficult union of qualities
places Plymouth Rocks among the IA
vorites. For market they are one OF
the best breeds. being large, plump
bodied and full breasted. with clean
yellow legs, while the meat is sweet
and juicy.

Small Fields PreferabIe.,

Though they may require a great
deal more fencing, small fields are de-
cidedly preferable to large ones; yet
the reason may not be apparent at
first thought, to every one. A change
is often very beneficial both to man
and beast, and this change may be
had for our stock if we will only run
a few cross fences. In large pastures
it is necessary to allow our stock to
remain in one field too long, so that
after so long confinement in one field
the ~rass becomes scented and is not
relishe4 SO well. Then too. portions
CT .. iar-e pasture will be allowed to
grow up and fall on the ground, when
it loses its strength and is not SO
sweet and tender. In order to have'
the best pastures they should not be
allowed to grow too tall before they
are grazed off. thus affording more
and better pasture. Frequent chang
ing is very beneficial to the health OF
live stock; especially is this true OF
hogs and sheep. Many contagious dis
eases may be prevented, or arrested
when begun. by turning into new
quarters, where the atmosphere is pur-
er. Changing from one field to an
other will often give change in the
variety of grasses, which often works
much good. The greater the variety
of grasses, the better the pasture.
am an advocate of mixed pastures
for all kinds of live stock, and have a
great many lots around the barn for
changing stock and giving those
which have been stabbed a great deal,
chance to sun and to breathe fresh
air. These few conveniences will
work a great deal of good in a life
time, and the more we do in this line
the more we will want to do.-Thurlow

Maiden's Blush Apule.

This apple has long been popular at
the east. During recent years it has
become a great favorite at the west
where it has proved hardy and re-
markedly productive of large and
handsome apples evenly shaded with
a red cheek Or blush on clear pale
yellow ground. While it is valuable
apple, it is good keeper. and if pat
in cold storage can be kept into early
winter. The flesh is peculiar. tender
and desirable for cooking or for des-
sert. and its peculiar beauty makes it
favorite in the market. At the re-
cent western New York horticultural
meeting Maiden's Blush was spoken of
as an apple that was coming into ia
vor in western New York with the
large orchardists. The fruit is in
great demand il the market It's
beauty and season of ripening and it's
good keeping qualities make it partic-
ularly desirable as, a market fruit At
the season when the Maiden's Blush
ripens, apples fit for eating or cook
ing are scarce. 1t has been noticed
for many years that Maiden's Blush
has been gaining in popularity. The
tree is good grower, and it is healthy
and hardy in western New York.

Are the patrons of butter ana

Don't expect that running it over some

large tin surfaces is fruitful mediun5a

positively harmful. Where a sudden
lowering of the temperature takes
place when exposed to the air results
may be eminently satisfactory, even
though germs may be present, the low

SNAKES IN BED.

No matter where he is, or at what
hotel he is stopping, John l.. Carter, a
well known railroad character of Col
orado, always, before going to bed,
removes the covers and shakes them
thoroughly before daring to turn in.
That is, he does this in the season
when snakes are around. While talk
ing to a group Of friends in the lobby
Of the Savoy Hotel, Mr.. Carter told a
story that explained this unusual habit
of his.
1t was about the middle ofsone July
when he was at Tucumcari, N. NJ,
with a construction party of the Rock
Island road that the experience he re-
counted befel him. After an unusually
hard days work he entered the quar-
ters of the engineers late at night, so
worn out that he did not even strike
a light, but threw off his clothes and
piled himself into one of the beds
along the wall. In few moments he
was sound asleep, but frequently dur
ing the night he was awakened by
what seemed to him moving ridge
beneath him in the bed. He was too
sleepy to get up and investigate. how
ever, and anyway felt that it was only
a trick Of his imagination. Rising
early the next morning, he, as was the
habit of the men in the camp, began
the task of folding up and putting
away the blankets on the bed. AS he
jerked the third one from the bed and
gave it vigorous shake he heard a
heavy thud on the other side, as of
some body striking the ground What
confronted his eyes when heSlowered
the blanket almost paralyzed hims With
fear. There, all coiled and ready fol-
battle, lay an immense prairie rattle
snake. Later, when with the aid OF
some of the men about the camp who
had answered his call, he had dis
patched the reptile, he measured it
and found that it was exactly five feet
in length and as large around as a
mans wrist. That's why Mr. Carter
always inspects his bed in the snake
season.-Kansas City Journal
