Bi’ssuli FhOns —ilr. 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. Give
me a mint toddv. ”
A wetter in the Scientific American
Myi: We dean our premisee ot the
detestable vermin, rate, by making
whitewash yellow with copperas and
covering the stones and rafters with it.
In every crevice in which a rat may go
we put the crystals of the copperas, and
scatter it in the corners of the floor. The
result was a perfect stampede cf rats and
mice. Since that time not a footfall of
either rats or mice has been heard

He had his opinion, anyhow- A very
Low Church minister was reproving his
curate with haying taken part in a wed
ding breakfast. “But, sir,” said the
young man in amazement, “our Lord
film sell was present at a wedding feast
in Cana.” “That’s perfectly true, young
man,” answered the parson; “but in my
opinion he had very much better have
stayed away.”
Dead Sea fruit: “So you are going to
Saratoga, Cicely, my dear? Well, I am
sorry for you.” “Why, indeed. Is not
Saratoga a chat ming place—the society,
the balls, the music, the waters?” “Ah,
yes; bitter waters of disappointment.
I was there last year and three broken
engagements was the result—and still-
ami still—” “Unmarried?” “Yes. Don’t
go to Saratoga.”

boil it with strong vinegar, and thicken
the liquid during boiling with fine wheat
flour, so that a paste results. Second,
Starch paste with which a little Venice
turpentine has been incorporated while
it was warm. Third. Paint solution of
tannin over the spot, let it dry, und then
affix the label previously gummed and
moistened. Another very good method
is a dilute solution of white gelatine,or,
better still, of isinglass. Its strength
should not be more than one iu twenty,
and it may be applied by means of a
pencil or sponge. It has this advantage
that labels applied to the surface so
covered do uot adhere permam ntly at
onoe,but may be slid about long enough
to permit their proper adjustment and
straightening,
