A RTTDT IN HUMAN NATTJJIE. "That man who just went out," remarked the observant man, "is a butcher." "He is," replied the storekeeper. "You know him, probably." "Never set eyes on him before." "Then bow did you know that he was a butcher!" usked the Btore* keeper. "Simply by the way he carries his money. I noticed that when he paid for his purchases he took a crumpled wad of bank notes out of his trousers pocket. Butchers always carry their money tnat way. So do bakers and grocers, but I knew he was neither of them, and therefore concluded that he was a butcher." The assembled citizens who sat around on bores and barrels looked admiringly at the observant stranger, and asked for more information on the way different people carried their money. "Bankers carry their money in ni e new bills, laid out at full length in a morocco pocketbook," he went on. "Brokers always fold their bills twice.

On the day before the Kaiser sets out on a railway journey extraordinary precautions are taken lees any mishap should befall the imperial traveler. Every bridge is minutely examined, and in particular tunnels, bridges, etc., as well as the state of rails. The engineer is made responsible for their being in a fit condition. On the day of the journey itself, and shortly before the court train starts, a pilot train or locomotive with an engineer is sent on ahead for a short distance and the line of route again gone over and examined. If there are sleepers, loose rails or stones lying in the vicinity of a building place they are watched during darkness by people specially deputed for that purpose. On the approach of the train the number of men set to watch the line of route is increased, while others are placed before and in the tunnels, at level crossing and on the larger bridges. Several officials, who are ma;le answerable for everything being in perfect order, as well as for any delayp, accompany the train. In case nny de" * 11 * - ?- il* A /?An *4 iects in me locomouve ui mc train should become manifest engines are ready to be substituted. The traveling and non-traveling public is kept at a distance from tho train at stations where stoppages are made for any purpose whatsoever. Signals at night are avoided so as not to disturb the repose of the monarch. The railway officials are in a state of feverish anxiety ; tel-. egrams fly to and fro, and the least delay is announced. In short, every conceivable measure is taken to cause the journey of the exalted traveler to pass off as easily and as pleasantly as possible.?London Telegraph. ? Curious Competitions. The Belgian artisan spends bis leisure in a very novel manner. He breeds a special cock for crowing, and that which can outcrow its fellows has reached the highest pinnacle of perfection. The modus operandi is to place the cages containing the roosters in long rows, for it appears that propinquity creates the spirit of emulation without which the proceedings would fall flat. A marker appointed by the organizers of the show is told ofi for each bird, his duty beiDg to note carefully the number of crows for which it is responsible in the same fashion as the laps are recorded in a bicycle race. The customary duration of the match is one hour, the winner being the cock which scores the highest number of points in the allotted time. A great number of these competitions have recently taken place in the Liege district, and in some cases heavy bets have been made on the rej suit.?Tit-Bits. Statistics About the Bnilalo. The vital statistics about the buffalo, as gathered at Washington, are melancholy. W. T. Hornaday, Superintendent of the National Zoological Park, gives it as his opinion that the whole number of buffaloes, running wild and in captivity, in North America, was about 1001) in 1889. Of these, twenty-live were in the Pan Handle of Texas, twenty were in Colorado, twenty-six were in Southern Wyoming, ten were in the Musselshell County of Montana, and four lone beaBts were wandering in Western Dakota. In the Athabasca Territory 01 loe urinsn possessions it who conmated that there were 550. Between 250 and 300 ivje accounted for in captivity in the United States.

Fancy Mr. "Tommy" Bowles plying Sir Ellis Ashraead-Bartlett with oranges during one of the latter's fiery ntracks on Mr. j Chamberlain! In Burke's day honorable members used to lie lull length along the benches in ridinc-boots, and amu?e themselves, not only by sucking orangec, but by cracking nuts. ?London Saturday Review.

The long stubble which is usually turned under the furrow in plowing for winter wheat is only an, injury to the crop. The stubble nas almost no manurial value, and the little it hae is potash, which is saved by burning it on the ground. This also disposes of many of the small weeds which are so charred that their further growth is stopped. The effect of dry stubble plowed under after midsummer is to keep tho soil too light all winter. Of course it fills with water, and the grain -- 1 ^ 60WJ1 111 iue I till JJtto a pictbr guuu chance to be winter killed. Besides, such stabble plowed under makes the poil too drv all the fall for the grain to make the right kind of growth. The ash of the straw on the contrary, attracts moisture, and if the land is plowed after burning stubble it will be moister than if there had been no Btubble to burn. There is no advantage in burning straw on land that i& not to be plowed. The straw helps to hold snow evenly over the grass and clover seeding, and it is usually beaten down to the ground before spring, so that it rots and is out of the way before clover or grass cutting time.? Boston Cultivator. rnrrr.TTJV nnncr. FT.nnTl. There is considerable difference of opinion concerning the matter of door for a poultry house. Some contend that the floor should be of wood, and others that the best floor is the natural earth. I am n Arm believer in the earthen floor, when it is properly made. The land on which the poultry houso 6tands should be thoroughly drained if it is at all liable to become water soaked, no matter what kind of floor is nsed: and where there is 11 o danger from water soaking the earthen floor has many advantages over one of wood. The top soil should be taken out and clay or 6and filled in until the surface is six inches Above the surrounding level, and this should be firmly packed bv beating it down with a heavy weight. Such a floor is better for the fowls because more natural for them. When it becomes foul it can be easily renewed by taking off the top of it and putting in more clay or sand. Lice cannot find a refuge in an earthen floor, as the dust is fatal tc them; while, if the floor is of wood, the cracks make an excellent hiding plaoe for them. If the cost were the same I would choose a well made earthen floor to any other that I huve ever seen. The houses in one of the most extensive poultry establishments in the West are all of them made of solid clay.

There may be i a ventilating shaft in each stall, and a j email window, but even with these 11 exit6 for overheated air there will be 1 days when the inmates of box stalls s will suffer for a treer circulation of i air, particularly in winter, when it is not always practicable to open stable windows.

( . f FEED THE PLANTS. < So many people make the fatal mis- I take?fatal to plants?of supposing 1 their favoriten can live, thrive and ' blossom for an entire season without * food. As well suppose the locomotive ? that rushes across the continent to j accomplish its labor without the neces- ( eary fuel to generate the power, as to expect your floral treasures to put forth leaves and buds abundantly and be beautiful without the fertilizers z from which they may collect material, t which they alone have the power to j ohange into vegetable matter. The material that the plant trans- ? forms into leaves and blossoms is taken ? from the soil, and unless the supply { is kept up the plant must suffer. It cannot make something out of nothing, but must be supplied with fertilizers at regular intervals to obtain j the best results. n Plants that are grown in beds where J the roots are free to seek for food are i oiten enriohed but once?at planting j time. Bat when restricted to the nar- i row limits of a pot, a "little too often" ! is the rule. If we would not check 1 their growth we must provide the food ^ they cannot collect for themselves. l This is accomplished in many ways. ? Pot shrubs and bulbs are much ben* ? efited by removing the soil down to ? the roots and replacing with fresh earth. This method is recommended f for all plants that object to being 5 often disturbed. 11 Geraniums, chrysanthemums and all plants of vigorous growth, may, ? when potbound, be turned from the 5 pot, have part of the ball removed, the pot filled above the drainage to the required depth with rich earth, and the ball returned. This shouid be done as carefully as possible, so as not to injure the tine roots unnecessarily. Also remove the top, if desired, and refill with rich earth. If properly done, an immediate benefit will be noticed in the renewed growth of the plant. It is a wise precaution to have a basket of rich soil, prepared especially iot this purpose, in the cellar as winter Brrives. It will more than repay the trouble of securing it. Liquid manure is a common way of providing plant food, but like all good things, it must be handled with judgment. It must not be used too strong upon dry soil, or be allowed to touch the lOiiage. jlo prepare it, mac a pail part fall of decayed manure and pour boiling water over it?by using hot water the weed seeds, if ?ny, are destroyed, as also are worms and insect life. After it has cooled and settled, pour Off the water, and before nsing reduce to the color of weak tea. At first, once a week is often enough, but as soon as the plants become accustomed to the stimulant it may be applied two and even three times a week, according to the nature of the plant under treatment. Soot tea is also good for plants, giving them a freshness of foliage and a brilliancy of color that is surprising. It is prepared in the same manner as manure tea, and they may be used together if desired. Soot tea is especially recommended for roses, but it is beneficial to other plantH as well. T? unnKinrr nlftnts ft little well AM X ? ? ^ rotted manure may be placed directly above the drainage, lightly covered with soil so the roots may not come in contact with it until established. Fill in uround the ball with soil mixed with manure, and when the roots begin to explore the new soil they will find just the food suited to their needs,and will Dot be slow to profit by your generosity. " For people who find it impossible or inconvenient to prepare the manure tea, so much U6ed as a fertilizer, the prepared plant foods of various brands ire found very useful. They seem to perfectly fill ft long-felt want. They tre pleasant to use, and not bulky to aandle ; they are sold at a very reasonible rate, with fall directions for their lse. For people residing in cities, far from woods and old meadows, lrom which a goodJy supply of leaf mould ind rich, sfindy loam are to be ob- ( iained, the potting soil sold by many c( 3orists is very useful. It contains jr lust the right quantity of each kind e< 3f soil and well decayed manure, and d s best adapted to the needs of plants e| ind bulbs.
