Charles Gibb states that the names of fruits in Russia are hopelessly confounded, so that it is Teiy difficult to ce certain as to the va riety by the name given to it in different parts of the country. He says that the leading apple of the Volga is the Ams, which is highly prized and very largely grown. It seems to be capable of en during a climate of 58 degrees below zero, that in latitude 65 there are twelve villages where the peasant proprietors engage entirely m apple growing, and that the product of these villages in a gcod season amounts to fifty thousand dollars. This is the coldest orchard region known, and ihe Anis is their hardiest tree. This Anis apple seems to comprise a number of varieties, one spoken of as the pink colored varitey, another as the Blue Anis. The leading apple of the Russian Steppes is Anton- ovka. In the climate of Toula, la.itude 54, ume 480 miles further north than the city of Quebec, it is considered their hardiest apple as well as the most pro ductive. It certainly is a most produc tive tree,sometimes yielding nearly half a ton of fruit. He also found some varieties of pear sufficiently hardy to endure the climate of latitude 54 on the Volga. He found cherries of a hardy variety that were grown in great abundance; that in the cherry district of Vladimer there are many orchards comprising 15,000 trees each, and that entire trains of oars are sometimes loaded with the fruit and sent to the markets; that indeed the chief industry of this section is cherry culture. The trees are bush form, and when they become too old to bear pro fitably, the old parts are cut away and the sprouts allowed to take their places. When npe the flesh of the cherry is a purplish red, the skin a reddish black, and the flavor a rich mingling of sweet and acid. Mr. Gibb sees no reason why these cherries may uot be prtfita- bly grown in the Province of Quebec. Me also found plums in Central Russia, chiefly of the prune family. These plum trees, like the cherry, are very dwarfish in habit, more like busnes than trees. They are urually grown from suckers. Fkei> fob Hobses and Cows.—I am a lover of animals, and treat them kindly; but I also let them know lhat I am master, and do uot spod the animal by sparing the rod. They all love and fear me. A farmer told me that I ought to have a premium lor keeping old horses. I have three; the youngest 16 yerrs old, the next 19, the oldest and best 26. Our Western farmers and especially our town teamsters, abuse their horses more than they do at the East. The general feed at the West is corn. I usually feed corn. I have been lu the habit of soaking it in water twelve to twenty-four hours. Of late years I have had my corn ground, and ted meal with wheat bran. Corn this year is fifty cents a bushel; grinding five cents. A bushel weighs fifty-six pounds, which makbs the cost of the meal one cent a pound. Wheat bran is three-fourths of a cent, coarse wheat flour or middlings at the mill one cent a pound. I am now feeding 1 f pound's of bran and three pounds of meal and middlings mixed, three times a dsy, with a handful of oil meal and a sprinkling of salt, some hay and more grass. I let the horses out at night in the pasture, where there is plenty of grass and a brook of water.My work is light and my feed is usually less than the above given quantity. I have planted a quantity of early corn and sugar caue, which, when grown to roasting cars, 1 begin to cut and feed green tor cows, horses and hogs. There is, probably, more food for animals m an acre of corn, and more especially ot sugar-cane, when green, than any other crop we raise. For some years past I have been in the habit of planting some sugar-cane,not only to feed when green but to cut up for winter. The stalks keep slightly green all winter, and the animals eat the stalks of the cane all up, especially when run through a cut ting-box; the cattle and horses eat the cane-stalks and leave the corn-stalks. The cows are fed twice a day one pound of bran and one pound of middlings with a sprinkling ot salt mixed. I have planted pumpkins and winter squashes for the cows. We know that farmers often claim that they have no time to read. This is not always true. Indeed, it is true when they con’t want tw read. No work ingman has more leisure time than the farmer. There is not one day in ten even in the busiest season,that lie coaid not find one hour to devote to study, and during at least one-third of the year he could spare at least two hours every day, and often twice as many. Farmers’ boys have abundant time for reading and study. This will seem mild language to some of our readers, but we know what we are writing about. We know all about farm life, and we know that any smart ambitions boy on the farm can find as ranch time for study as he needs, if he only tries. And we know that every farmer can tiud on an average more than one hour a day to devote to acquiring knowledge. Cobn is popular as a diet, but it is very easy to feed too much of it, parti cularly to the larger breeds. All corn rm kes them too fat, and the great bulk of fat waich sometimes accumulates about the internal organs,makes trouble iu laying. When hens, in apparent health die suddenly on the nest,or drop from the roost at night, it sometimes comes irom a disarrangement of the organs, earned by too much fat. Wneat in its various forms is a safer diet than corn, Corn once a dsy in winter is enough. HUMOROUa A fabheb obeerved a flock of quails ruuning along between the rows of corn, which was just sprouting. Conceiving the idea that they were pulling up hia corn, one of the birds was killed,and its crop examined. Instead of corn it was found to contain one cutworm, 21 stripe- bugs, and over 100 obinch bugs. A valuable bird to the farmer is the quail, and one that should be protected, in stead of being hunted and shot for mere amusement of sport loving hun ters. “Yea, sir, I believe the hand of Prov idence is sometimes shown in these matters of speculation," replied the old ex-broker, ss he tilted his chair back. ’’ “Have you any instances ?" “Yes, two of ’em. Seventeen years ago I put every dollar 1 could raise into a spec on cotton. If I lost I would be a beggar. If I won I vowed that I would give the Methodists in my town $500 to build a steeple on their chnroh. Gentlemen, 1 was hedged around and fenced in with difficulties and disasters, but the hand of Providence pulled me through and I made 338,000.’’ “And was the other case ?" “Well, I put about 340,000 in wheat and corn, and I vowed that if I won I would give 32,000 toward a Baptist church.’’ “And the hand of Providence pulled you through, eh ?” “No, sir. She scooped me stone blind. I reckon she didn’t favor the Baptist religion." A frowsy tramp who had got out of New York by way of the bridge, called at a farmer’s house, near East New York, to get something to eat, and was told to chop up some kindling wood in the yard. He worked for half an hour, and then he was fed. After he had finished he said to the farmer: “Now, give me a quarter for chopping wood, and we’ll be square.” “Bat I gave you your dinner,” said the’farmer. “I don’t work for my victuals. I work for money when I work, and the victuals is a bonus. ” “Well, I won’t pay you.” “All right, boss; then I’ll sue you. I know’ the law. Work means money, not victuals. I can wait. I ve got lots of time; but I'll have you before the courts, if you don’t fork over.” The farmer at length paid the quarter, but he angrily protested that he would never give another tramp a meal. “All right, boss.” said the trsmp clu ing the coin in his rags; “but, if you do, don’t ask your guest to perform manual labor. So long.” “Do you ever make trunks to order ? - ’ asked the reporter. “Well, sometimes, if the order isn’t too curious to undertake. There was a lady here the other day, and what kind of a trunk do you suppose she wanted ? Just this: She said she was going to California and she wanted to take her nephew three monkeys that she had bought of a sailor, and the best and least expensive way to take them would be in a trunk. So she asked us to make her one with air-holes all over it, that would not show on the outside, and to have the acoustic properties such that if the monkeys should squeal, no one could hear them. We told her we couldn’t do it, and she went away in dignant.” “I shall not resent your insulting language,” said an Arkansas colonel to a man who called him a liar. “Yon are not my equal in social standing, and I shall pay no attention to you.” The man slapped the colonel’s face. ‘ I shall not resent any of yonr slaps, for 1 can not afford to lower myself to your level.” “You won’t light me, ehV” “No, sir.” “You don’t challenge me because it would reflect discredit on you to meet me on the field ? ’ “You are correct.” “Let’s take a drink then.” “All, right. I'm your man.

I have used In all ten bottles, and it has completely cured me.
