A?UtOL TJE. 11UsiLAN Tutris.-Mr. Charles Gibb states that the names of fruita in iussia are hopelessly confounded, so that it Is very difficult to no certain t.s to the va riety by the name given toit in different parts of the country. He says that the leading apple of the Volga is the Anis, which is highly prized and very largely grown. It seems to he capable of en during a climate of 68 degrees below zero, that in latitude 65 there are twelve villages where the peasant proprietors engage entirely in apple growing, and that the product of these villages in a good seaaon 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 numberof varieties, one spoken cf as the pink colored varitey, another as the Blue Anis. Tie leading apple of the Russian Steppes is Anton ovka. In the climate of Toula, la.itude 54, some 480 miles further north than the city of Quebec,it is considered their hardiest apple as well as the most pro ductive. It certaily 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 cars 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 phices, When ripe 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 io reason why these cherries may not be pr fita bly grown in the Province of Quebec. Lie also found ilums in Central Aussia, chiefly of the prune family. These plum trees, like the cherry, are very dwarfish in habit, more like busnes than trees. Tiey are i.ually grown from suckers. FEEI, FOR loRsEs AND Cows.-I am a lover of animals, and treat them kindly; but I also let them know that I am master, and do not spod the animal by sparing the rod. They all love and fear me. A farmer told me that I ought to have a premium for 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 thoir horses more than they do at the East. The general feed at the West is corn. I usually feed corn. I have boon in the habit of soaking it in water twelve to twenty-four hour'. Of lato years I havo had my corn ground, and led meal with wheat bran. Corn this year is fifty cents a bushel; grinding five cents. A bushel weighs fifty-six pounds, which makes the cost of the meal one cent a pound. Wheat bran is throo-fourths of a cent, coarse wheat flour or middlings at the mill one cent a poiund. I am now feeding Il pounds of bran anid three pounds of meal and middlings mixed, three times a dsy, with a handful of oil meal and a sprinklmng of sailt, some hay and more graiss. I let the horses out at night in the pasture, wvhere 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 cern and sugar cane, which, when grown to roasting ears, 1 beglin to cut and teed green for cows, horses andI bogs. There is, probably, moure food for animals in an acre of corn, and miore especially of sugar-cane, when green, than any other have been in the habit of planting some sugar-cano,not only to feed whou green but to cut up for wiutor. The stalks keep slIghtly green aill winter, andi( the anmmals eat the stalks of the cano all uip, especially when run throtugh a cut ting-box; the cattle and horses eat the cane-stalks and leave thle coru- stalks. Tih* cowsa are fed twie a dtay one poundit of bran and one pound of mitkilings with a sprinlklmg of salt mixed. 1 Fayo planted pumpkins and winiter squashos for the cows. WE know that farmers often claim that they have no time to roaid. TIhis is not always true. Indeed, it is true when they toat waiit te read. N\o work ingmnan has imore leisure time thian the farmer. Thbere is not one day in ten oven in the busiest season,that lie could not flund oneC hiour to dev~ote to study, and dulrmag at least onec-third of the year lie could spare at least two hours every day, and oftent twice as many. Farmers' buys have abundant time for reading andis tuidy. TIhis ill seem mild language to seine of cur readers, but we knowv what we are writing about. WVe know all about larim lie, and wvo kiiow that iay smart ambitious boy on the farm can flid as niuch time for study as he needs, if lie oily tries, And we know that every farmer can lind on an average more than one hour a day to devote to acquiring knowledge. CORN Is poptular as a diet, but it is very easy to feed too much of it, parti cularly to the larger breeds. All corn me kes them too fat, and the great burlk of fat waich sometimes accumulates about the internal oirgans,nmakes trouble In laying. Whlen hens, in apparent health die suddenly on the nest,or drop from the roost at night, it sometimes comes from a disarrangement of the organs, eamned by toio munch lat. Wheat in its various forms is a safe'r diet thaii corn, Corn oco a day in winter is enough, A FAiRER observed a flock of quails ruuning along between the rows of' corn, which wvas just sprouting. Conceiving the idea that they were pulling up his corn, une 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 chuinchi bugs. A valuable bird to the farmer is the qu.ail, and one that should be protected, in stead of being hanted and shot for mere amusement of sport- loving hun ters, A WRITER in the Scientific American says: We clean our premisea of the deteatable vermin, rats, by making whitewash yellow with copperas aad covering the stones and raters with it. In every crevice in which a rat mtay go we put the crystals of the copperas, and scatter it in the corners of the floor.The result was a perfect stampede of rats and zicoe. Since that time not a footfall of either rats or mice has been heard Around the houso," HUMOBOU9. "Yes, sir, I belieVe the hbni of Proy idence is sometimes sho*n in these matters of speculation," replied the old ex-broker, as he tilted his chair back." "Have you any instances ?" "Yes, two of 'em. Seventeen years ago I put every dollar I could raise into a spe 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 church. Gentleman, I was hedged around and fenced in with difliculties and disasters, but the hand of Providence pulled me through and I made $38,000." "And was the other case ?" "Well, I put about $40,000 in whoat and corn, and I vowed that if I won I would give $2,000 toward a Baptist churob." "And the hand of Providence pulled you through, olh ?" "No, sir. She scooped me stone blind. I reckon she didn't favor the Baptist religion." A Fulowsv tramp who had got out of New York by way of the bridge, called At a farmer's houao, near East Now York, to get something to eat, and was told to rhop up some kindling wood in the yard. Ee worked for half an hour, and then Lio was fed. After he had finished he said to the farmer: "Now, give me a quarter for chopping wood, and we'll be square." "But I gave you your dinner," said tho '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 I know the law. Work moans money, t 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 tramp hid ing the coin in his rags; "but, if you do, don't ask your guest to perform manual labor. So long." "Do you over make trunks to order ?" asked the reporter. "Well, sometimes, if the order isn't too curious to undertake, There was a lady hero 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 hoar them. We told her we couldn't do it, and she wont away in dignant." '"I sAML not resent your insulting language," said an Arkansas colonel to a man who called him a liar.
