"That man who just went out," remarked

"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*

"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

TVhen the Kaiser Travels.
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"

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. A herd
has also bec-n located in the Barren
Grounds of Hudson Bay Territory,
and is said to number 150.?New York

House o! Commons Manner?.
It is striking to what an extent the
manners of the House of Commons
have changed within the lifetime of
| Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Villicrs. When
j Mr. Ferrand, the member for Knares!
borough, was making a furious attack
I on Cobden, according to the latter's
description, "Colonel Sibthorpe plied
the fellow with oranges to suc!?, in an
affectionate way that resembled a
raoukev fondling a bear." 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.

BURNING STUBBLE BEFORE PLOWING.
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

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.?

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.

VENTILATING BOX STALLS.
Where box stalls are constantly in
se there are many days, not only in <

it is a serious problem to keep the ]
inmates comfortable. 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. Under such conditions i
th3 best plan is to open the box stall i
out into the interior of the stable, by |

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. This is an opportunity *
not to be neglected, for the florist ^
anderstands just what is needed, and
