"Tell the truth," said John Ilavilantl, as he threw asiclo the evening paper, ami faced the littlo group In tho parlor, "I am fast growing cut of patienco with tlio text, A woman at the bottom of it.

"Hut you should caro, and yon should fight lor och other mora than you do.

"Why John!" wild Mrs, Havilaml, softly approaching babo stilt held tight to her bosom "you absolutely frighten me." "Lot's have tho story," said tho rest of tho group, certain that something good might bo anticipated) and John commenced, at lirst a littlo timid, hut gaining confidence as ho pro ceeded, " ne.ii I first camo to New York, at the ago of 12, to seek my fortune, I can call my self a precocious chap without danger of being accused of an unusual degrco of self apprecia tion.

MANAGEMENT OF THE STALLION. National I.lvo-Ktock Journal. Tho condition of tho stallion for tho' next season's business will depend largely upon tho manner in which ho is kept from nowuntil tho season commences; In most cases tho period from tho 1st of October to tho 1st of March is ono in which the stallion is not called upon to do duty in tho stud. 'It is a period of rest) of recuperation from tho drain upon tho func tions of tho sexual organs which service in tho stud has required, but it should net ho a sea son of pampered and overfed indolence, as is too often the case. When it is conven ient to do so, tho very best possible treatment that can Ijo resorted to during this period is to nut tho stallion at light work. If a draft horse that has been as they all ouuht to ho broken to work, lot him Imj driven moder ately alongsido of a quiet maro or gelding, aid worked regularly up to tne 1st ot renruaty, and fid cnouuli grain to keep him strong and healthy, but not fat. Oats will bo a much better food for him than corn, but If it is found that ho is becoming too thin, or if tho work is comparatively ho ivy, corn may be used part of tho timu with good results. If tho stallion is a trotter or n roadster, by nil means diivo him on tho road. If you can use him regularly as a business horse, so much tho better, and, as in the case of tho draft stallion, feed him enough to keep him strong and hearty, and work him right along, as though you Intended that he slum Id cam his living. This wo aro satisfied from experienco is tho best treatment for stallions of any breed, and will result, not ouly in bringing tho horses to the beginning of tho next season in Witter condition than any other) but thu probabilities nro that n horso so treated will get inoro and better foals than one that is not worked during this period, UEAT1NO MILK FOR WINTER SETTING. National Ufo Mock Journal. ' Heating thu milk of small dairies in Wintci in very necessary where tho temperature, of the milk room is much below CO degrees, for thin liodica of milk will raiso very little cream with tho temperature at HO degrees or below. Heating tho milk to 130 or MO dctrccs will cause nearly all the cream to rise whllo the temperature of thu milk is fulling. If heated milk is set six to ten inches deep, in a room at a temperature of 43 to A0 degrees, it will tako several hours for the temperature of the milk to fall 00 decrees, and tho cream will princi pally rise during this time. Hut hcatiui; milk in Winter serves other important pur-! puses. Heating is a purtiying process, ii drives oil' all had odors or taints it may havo taken from tho condition of tho fodder or tho odors of the stable. All dairymen are not nwaro of thu danger of tainting tho milk, In Winter, from tho cows standing in an impure atmosphere, or of eating mouldy fodder, or from a turnip or cabbage fluvor. It must bu set, however, after heating, in a pure attnos phcro It is found also, that tho cream from heated milk churns much easier in Winter. Tho cream should ho churned within 24 to .11) hours after skimming, and should not stand more than .'10 to M hours before skimming.

Curing a Balky Horse. A correspondent of tho Toronto Olobo would cure a balkyhorseas follows i "I would prepare myself with a good strap I want no whin iierhaps ho has cot a tasto of that alrcadyi and still he is master, llutsomo tine day when I was at peaco with myself and all around, I would hitch him to thu bug gy, turn his head toward the village. He goes half tho way very well indeed, he be ginr to consider that, he has gone far enough in that direction and stops. I step down) ho expects mo to usu thu whip. Hu is mistaken. As a criminal I treat him on thu silent system. I push him back a littlo out of tho way. I show him the strap, putting it up to Ids nose, I go to thu oil' sidu and buckle it to his oil" fore leg, closo up to tho breast, throwing tho other end over his shoulder. 1 then laiao liii near fore foot and llx it with tho Itoof nearly touching thu Iwlly. This done, 1 say, 'Now, old chap, you stand there.' I don't smoke, so I take a paper from my )ocket, and finding n place where I can sit down and he see me, I liegiii to lead. This is something ho did not bargain for, and thu novelty of standing on threo legs somewhat diverts him from the camo that stopped him. I .think this is tho chief fliut to In) gained and the moat humane. Ho now shows sign of a wish to go, but that does not suit at the time, as I yet have to look over 'John Catdigatc.' When the strap is taken old show it to him, caress him a littlo and we move ou without irritation, Iho strap will now lw a part of the harness for a month or two, till the sight ot it will act as a talisman," Car or Young Fig. Three or four weeks is the ago at which pigs always need the most careful attention. At aliout this period th'o pig reaches a point when the milk of tho tow is iiotsutticiciittokeepup a healthy growth, aud uuless the pigt Ivave been taught to eat Iwforo this time, there will always be trouble with them. The only way to avoid it is to teach them to eat and drink at tho earliest possible age, This may easily be done by placing a little milk or other palat able food, in liquid or aeinjdiquid form, in a trough near them, but where the sow cannot get at it. lly the time the pig are a week old they will begiu to taste it, aid then they will very quickly learn to cat heartily. Oive them plenty of nutritious, palatable food from this time ou, aud tbeve will be uo further ditlkulty, National Livestock Journal, CTJRINO HAMS AMD BACON. National Lite Stock Journal. The Journal has, on more than ono occasion called the attention of its readers to the fact tint in very many cases farmers will find it more profitablo to kill their fat hogs at homo and euro tho meat than to sell "on foot" at prevailing prices. Oo into any of the grocery and provision stores in tho towns and villages of Iowa, Mlwouri, Illinois, and other Western States, and you will find "sugar cured hams" on salo that havo been bought in Chicago or St. Louis. Perhaps tho very ham that a country merchant in Iowa sold to his customer in July last, was cut from a hog that tliiiaama customer sold, eight months before, to be shipped to Chicago. It has served the rail road companies a good purpose, for they car ried this nog 300 miles to Chicago, for which they were paid, and they brought the ham back an equal distance, for which they vero also paid. It has served tho dealers a good purpose, for the Iowa buyer, tho commission man at Chicago, tho curing establishment, and, last, tho country grocer who sells the ham to tho man that raised tho hog-, havo all had n commission out of it. This is simply a wasteful, foolish practice. Every country village ought to get its supply of hams and bacon from tho neighboring tarms, and farmers themselves ouvht never to havo to buy supplies of this nature; such a practice always shows a lack of that economical and intelligent inauagcmojit which is essential to success in any business, Tho curing of hams and nacou is a slmplo process and Is well understood by most of our readers. Tho ham should be trimmed pretty closely, so that mere snail lie no large, loose masses ot tat lying In flabby lolda at its lower extremity) for to leave this on, is simply to have so much lard wasted, J ho sides may ho cut in any desired shape for convenience in packing! mid they should always bo raited away in a sepa rate vessel from tho hams, shoulders, mid other parts containing bones. Speaking irotn our own experience, wo would say that the hams havo a decidedly better flavor, and tho meat retains a inoro natural color, when noth ing but plain salt is used in tho curing. If the work of salting is carefully attended to, tho hams, when cured with salt alone, will ho ready for smoking at from six weeks to two months, owing to tho sizo of tho hams. Thu saltpetre has a tendency to harden and redden the meat, ami for our own table wo would never tiso it. It undoubtedly accelerates tho curing process, hut it docs so at tho expense of the flavor. The Value of Breeding Animals. Indeed, to a man who is breeding pure bred stock of nny kind, it is imposiihtu to mcaiure tho value- of a singlo animal Introduced Into tho herd. A singlo mistako may cost him thousands of dollars, and carry him back ward to such an extent that years cannot re gain thu lost ground. On tho other hand, a fortunate selection a lucky lilt may add enormously to tho valuo of ail the produce for lor many generations, it might lo asserted that 8100 was nil enormous price for a pig six years old, and that no pig ever lived which at ?.. ' ......V .. ... that ago was intrinsicalh that ago was Intrinsically worth onu-hail ol tliis amount, and wo niiulit not ciuatrel with him if wo could agrco upon a itellnition of terms; In', tho writer once paid 8100 for a pig less than six months old that was intrinsically worth to him, as wo understand the term, more than ten times as much as any other pig oyer purchased at any price Wo might carry our illustration further by relating thu v: nerienca cf many others in tho mirchaao n breeding stock of all kinds, from horses down to pigs; but tho point is obvious. No arbi trary standaid of vnluo can bo placed on breeding st6ck and each breeder should be permitted to judgo for himself what he can afford to pay for animals with which to found a herd or flock, or to effect improvement in herds already founded. National Live Stock Journal. A Sea Captaln'f Noble Wife. In October, 1677, tho brigantiiio Moorcburg left roochoo, lu China, for Mvlliourne, carry im four seamen, tho captain, mate, and last, but by no means least, tho captain's wife, who was a little, delicato woman, and the baby. They had not gono far on their voyago ere the crow fell sick, ami ono after another die'd. The mate did not succumb entirely, but be came reduovl to a skeleton, anil was incapa ble of doing much, while the captain himself was almost' in as miaerablo a plight, his lege having swollen tremendously and his body bu a maaa of sores. III wifo alone held up under the terrible heat, although sho had mused tho sick till they had needed nursing mi longer, had looked well to her baby's needs, had dono duty at thu wheel in regular watches, and taken her share of seaman's work besides. To mako matters wurso thu ship sprung a leak, which tho captain luekly was alio to stop) and eventually tho .Moorcburg got into llriabane harbor, half full of water, with two sick men ou lioanl as hcrci-ow, all told, and a woman at tho hsiin, tho gallant woman bring ing not only tho ship but her baby safe into port. TllK agricultural department at Washing ton is now discovering that tho foot and mouth disease or apthnus fever prevails among the sheep ot tho country over nearly our whole area, the llntiah veterinarians having charged that a can-o of sheep from lloston were in fected with it. Tho department at Washing ton says thu disease is a contagious eruptive fever, communicable to other cloven-footed animals nud to man, and eaaily transmitted by milk, fodder, drinking-troiighs, and other points of contact. It is not dilllcult to extir pate it, and It often runs in heids for some time More its presence is susicctcd. It is evident that tho agricultural department has an abundant held fur its energies in keeping our farmers posted as to tho diseases which unlit their meat product for consumption abroad, Wo observe that Dr. Lyman's re luctant conclusion as .to thu prevailcnce of dis ease among American cattle was quoted tho other day in Parliament by her majesty's minister in defense of tho policy of rest no tion. Wild dame In the Blue Mountains. Almost every person who comes in from the Hliio mountains, says the Walla Walla States man, brings tho news of the depredations com mitted by the bears raiding on cattle and hogs. For the past three year they have not beeihuutcd by tho IuJian and are now be coming more numerous. It is astonishing how wild gamu increases wheu not molested for a few years. Wo hear of some parties ioiug out to try their hand at ridding the country of a few ot them. Krom our experienco in thu mountains wo would say tliat they had better lw in a hurry' about it as about the middle of this mouth they seek their winter quarter. Deer are very numerous and at this season in prime condition. Occasionally can be seeu along our street an Indian w ith saliuou which they hold at very high price. There is a fall run ot a small specie at this time, but they are not considered as a delicacy. Occasionally thu silver aalmouis wet ith which is a real treat. A Deavon Lane. Who that has ever walked through a gen uine Knglish lano forgets its charm? About our moorland villago we found every variety, and studied the Devonshire verdure and blos som in many aspects. The roadways are generally narrow) a firm foot and wagon pat!; with closo hedgo rows, diversified by brain, bio, holly, woodbine, honeysuckle nud clc matis. Sometimes tin tinglo of greenery hangs nbovo a rugged atono wall or earthen embankment! sometimes tall trees break the line, and awny across the road with feathery branches through which tho sunshine filters lowly) sometimes tho banks are all delicately fringed with maiden hair and ferns, tho long fern and the bioad leafed in rich profusion, with hero and there the color of some dainty wild flower. In the spring time wo saw these hedges starred with primroses, and the lower edges plentifully colored with lentcn lilies ami crocuses, and the lxild "dali'udowndilivs" which flourish like gay niati'cns In the' heart of the west of Knglanil country. In the later Summer, when wo went down to tho moors, all tho liohl glory had vanished) hut there wcro still ticli bfos-oms IoxkIovo with steins of purpto bells, bluo flowers, narcissus tint lays its pure paiu piossoms so somy against tho ferns, the gleam of sweet robin here and there, dandelion, and a tiny white flower that rests ou tho liosom of tho hedges, ami oven of tho moors, in spito of nil tin ficrco winds that sweep across thu femes ami heather, and finally, best of all tho intense ulow of tho scarlet nonnv in fields and load- side, blazing liko live coals in tho deep, cool verdure. llchind all this, far back against tho horizon, lay tho rich, dark color ing of tho moor, which cannot bo written down, or oven, I think, dono juiticc to in painting; it formed tho background for our littlo vilago, its varied shades toning tin perspective wtili so rich mid dark a beauty that all paler bloom seemed faded and lustre less in comparison. Our Littleness In tha Universe. Astronomers say that this world of ours, which seems so large, is lu fact to small in comparison with tho sun and stars, that it presence or absence is, to tho universe, n matter of inconceivably small importance ; and that, even in its own system, it would hardly be noticed by an oyo capablo of taking in at ono view tho sun and Its attendant planets. Sir John.Hcrschcl gives tho follow lug illustration of tho size nud diatunco ol theso IkxIIcs; Choose, ho says, any well level ed field. On it placo a globe two feet in di ameter) this will represent tho sun; .Merrur.v will bo represented by a grain of mustard seed ou the circumfcrcnco of a circle 104 feet in diameter for Its orbit) Venus, a pea in a circle of 'J8-1 foct in diameter) tho enrth, also n pea ou a circlo of 430 feet; Mars, a rathei largo pin's head in n circlo of (Kit feet; Jtipi-te-, n moderate sized orange in n circle ncarl) half n milo across ) Saturn, n smaller ornugi on n circle of four-fifths of n mile! Uranus, a full sired cherry upon the circumference of n ciicle more then a mile and a half; and Nep tune, a good sized plum on a circle, two nnd a half miles in diameter," If our earth were struck out of existence, it would hardly bu uu'mci! from such n system. Hut this is far from the vxticmo measure of our littleness. Tho evening sky is Muddtil with stais, Be tween us and them is empty space-. A wc took across it, thu distance does not seem so vei-y great, and even nstronriners were long In learning how great it is, and how utterh isolated the sun -villi its train of planets n Irom even tho nearest star. Keeping the samu sealu as ncloru, in wiiieli our inconceiv able dist.iiico from tho sun, 02i millions of miles, was reduced to a dozen roils or to, and then setting out to visit our neighbors, if we are luel;y enough to turn our steps to the nearest, wo find liefore us a Journey of nearly 11.000 miles. Had wo directed our stuns t any of the other stars, our road would havo iieen many thousand miles longer, l hero are stars from which light requires 0,000 yean to reach our ulobo. In Southwestern liuisia, between the llaltio and thu Hlack Seas, tho sunflower is universally cultivated hi fields gaidens nud borders, and every part of tho plant is turned to practical account.
