in the lower end also,which tie around the
neck, or simply tuck it in around the

• Though canned fruit can lie bought at
any grocery at, reasonable figures, there is
really nothing in tho market like the
fruit canned ul home; everyone know* 1
that. Most of the canned fruit ii
market is in tin, and some of it is very
good, though not so good as one can pre
pare herself, for whatever is done by the
wholesale is usually poorly done. If a
can is perfectly air-tight, it cannot by
any |Hissihle means impart a nictnlic
flavor to tho fruit. Snno people will
open a tin can, ismr out part of the
fruit, and leave the rest in ; of course,
that remaining ox posed, as it is, to the
action of tin* atmosphere, will soon ac
quire an unpleasant flavor. When a can
Is opened jhimi all the fruit out and keep
it in the earthen or glass dish until
eaten, ihk in tin. Always can tomatoes,
gooseberries* and strawberries in tin.
It tomatoes are canned in glass the ho
lion of the light upon them will form
crystals of citric acid, which makes them
so sour that nothing can sweeten them;
they will keep nicely and without th**
least trouble if canned In tin ; so will
strawberries and gooseberries. Cherries
ter if put in glnsi cans; rnspbor-
|H*aches, plums, huckleberries,
blackberries and currants may l*c put in
it her, and no one would know wlnit
they were canned in unless told.
Now for the nro.vss, Cleanse the cans
thoroughly, and test them to ascertain
if they leak or nro cracked. If any of
the tin cans leak, repair or send them to
the tinner tor repairs. If glass cans arc
defective do not use them for canning,
hut keep them for storing things in the
pantry. When the eons have Wen
cleansed, put warm water in them in a
dish pan; just More canning have ready
another pan of water quite not, and put
in two or three cans that have already
been warmed in water; take out as voii
are ready to till with fruit and stand
them upon a hot platter while filling
them; the platter keeps the jars from
tuning in «*ontact with a cold surface
like the table, and catches what fruit
may drop in tilling.

It is desirable to avoid, ra far as jkissI-
blo, an annual ex|M*nditur« for lalsir in
the management of our Innds. Wo rc-
quire a certain amount of forage for win-
t**r. Fulling fodder is one of the most
expensive and least profitable of the
operations of the farm. Well cured fod
der is the most palatable forage which can
ho given to horses. Ho is champagne the
most agreeable of all artificial fluids for
mail, lint fodder Is too expensive for
the farmer’s horse, and the champagne
too expenaive for the farm.- man. Just
think of a farmer going into a hundred
acre corn fie .1 with a gang of hands and
handling every separate blade of every
corn stalk. Contrast this with a mower
cutting down eight acres .»f grass a day,
sav sixteen tons, raked up by a horse
rake, teddered by horse jKuvcr, loaded
into the wagon and (hence into the barn
by a hay-liltcr, untouched by human
hands in the whole process.
lint there Is a cheaper nrooosi than
this. It is one which cannot he adopted
at the north, Is'cause the climate will not
allow it. This cheajKT plan is to provide
winter pastures for our mules, horses,
colts, cattle and sheep, thereby enabling
them to mow and save their own hay
without cost to us, either in the way of
negroes, mowers, hay stacks or hams.
The way to obtain a good winter pas
ture, is simple and not oxjiensivo. 'lake
a piece ot wood land, thin out the
worthless tiinlier, leaving rail trees and
mast-beat ing trees. The exact distance
cannot l*o given, liecauso trees differ very
much in the amount of shade which they
produce. The Kentucky rule is t thin
the tinibor, HO that the ground shall get
sunlight at least a portion of the day,
otherwise the grass will U* wmr and rc*
iccte.l hv livestock. The ground should
Is* well sprouted ; grubbing is not neces
sary, though it is Is-st. Th.- tree tops
and brush should he piled ami burned,
and the ashes scattered. F.xcept for np-
pearanec, the logs need not l.<* piled and
burned. Tho ground should not Is*
plowed ; grass seeds should lx* sown on
th# unbroken ground, and then all the
available live stix’k of the farmer should
Ik* turned upon it, to trample in Uie
weds. Hogs arc excellent for this pur-
|xwo, (ceding them shelled corn, scatter
ing as widely as |K»ssil»l.*, and feeding in
a different mace every day.
Th# seed sown, should consist of or-
hnrd, blue, herd’s and meadow oat
grass, il the latter can In* obtained. One
bushel of this mixture to Is* sowed to
lie acre—one-half orchard grass and the
other half of the other seeds, in equal
proportions.

A STRANGE STORY.
It was in the autumn of the year 17*2
that a surgeon in Boulogne of the name
F.ticnno Lefcbvre received n lette
Waring any signature, requesting him
repair on the following day to
house which was situated on
leading to Calais, and to bring along
such instruments ns would be required
for jM'rforining an o|>eration.
Next morning, sure enough, on the
stroke of nine, a carriage drove up to
his d*s*r. The doctor made no hesita
tion, tint at once took his seat in tin- car
riage. As lie was getting in he inquired
of tin* coachman where he was to lx?
taken to; hut the man np;ieared not to
know or did not choose to t.-ll ; but, as
ho s|**ike in F.uglisli, I/cfcbvre said to
himself," Ho it is an Kugiishnian to
whom I am summoned,” and lie accord
ingly prepared himself for an exhibition
of eccentricity on the part of one of that
nation which even now is s*. little under
stood by continentals. At length the
carriage slopped, and the doctor hastened
into tin* house.
lie was received at tin* entrance by a
line looking young man of alxmt twenty-
five years of age, who requested him to
walk into a large and handaomo room on
the first floor. 11iw accent showed him
to lx* an Englishman, and he said :
" Monsieur Lefe4>vro, pray lx* seated.
I have entire confidence in you ; only
listen to me. Here is a purse containing
one hundred guineas, winch 1 offer you as
a fee for the operation you are asked to
perform, no matter what the result may
lx*. In ease of you refusing compliance
with my request you see this pistol ? It
is loaded and you are in niy jxiwer. A»
I hope for salvation, 1 will blow your
brains out?”
"Hir, I am not to lx* deterred frem do-
ihg what I consider proper by any fear
of your pistol. Fut what do you desire?
What am I exjx'cted to do!”
” You must cut niy right leg oil.”
“ With all my heart, answered the
surgeon, thinking that this was a char
acteristic specimen of those mad English;
“and your hand, also, it necessary nr »lc
airuble. However, unless I am greatly
mistaken your leg is perfectly sound. I
saw you walk down stairs with the
greatest activity. What can lx? the mat
ter with your leg? '
“ Nothing; but it most come off.”
• Well, M l.cfehvro,” replied the
Englishman, taking up th.* pistol, •• I
will not fire upon you, and yet I will
compel you to cut off this leg. What
you refuse to do to oblige me, through
love of gain or fear of a bullet, you shall
do through huuinnitv.”
until at last one of her sisters revealed the
fatal secret to me. Susan was a marvel
of lx*atlty, hut she was so unfortunate as
to have lost a leg. and she had conse
quently condemned herielf to el^fiin*
celibacy. My resolution was quickly
formed, and I determined lx* to like her. 1
Thanks to you. niy dear I/cfobvre, my
wishes were s<kin accomplished. I re
turned witli iny wooden leg to I/rtwlon.
I hastened to gnin information of Miss
Flack. The report had been spread, and
I myself had taxen care to write to my
friends In England to the same effect, that
I had hod the misfortune to fracture my
leg, and thnt Amputation )ia<1 Mh found
alxioliitelv necessary. Every one ex-
pressed the greatest concern at nmy mis
fortune. Hiisjui fainted on the first occa
sion of my presenting myself. Hho was
for a long time inconsolable, but at
length she consented to lx*come my
wife. It was only on the morn
ing nftcr our marriage that I con-
fc*•**•(! to her the sacrifice by mentis
of which I loul at length been enabled to
gain her consent to lx; mine. The avowal
increased her love. Ohl my excellent
friend, bad I ten legs to lose I would give
them all dp for th** sake *ff my beloved
Husnu. Ho long as [ live rely on n*y grat
itude. It ever you visit England do not
fail to come here, so that I may make
you acquainted with my wife; and then

senses. Yours, faithfully,

In the year 17M, during the reign of

Ix-en accused of being an aristocrat by
one of his younger professional brethren’,
who envied him his practice, was obliged
to take refuge in I/iudon in order to save
his neck from the guillotine. Being
without employment or acquaintances,
he inquired for the residence ot his former
