FOR FARM AND GARDEN. PEED HUt BREEDING BOW ft. Siws that aro to farrow in spring are now carrying their young. Mush ef the value of the litter depends en the feeding of their dams. A diet of corn fattens the sow, but dost not give the material for producing vigorous, healthy off prinw. Skim-milk and flue wheaten middlings make the boat feel. Oatmeal is also excellent, nnd It need uot be siftod. Tne sow needs the husks of tue oat to keep her digestion good, aud to prevoat laying on too much fat. But if theroisp enty of bono and muscle-forming food given her thu sow’s increase of flosh will do no harm. It is constipttod bowels, esudag fevora that makes fat breeding sows destroy their youag. If tho pigs are all right, they wil. qu ckly work down sll super¬ fluous lut in their dam. —American CidtivUor. V8EI.E8B ltKTINF.MEHT. Though of late years many improve¬ ments have been made in butter-mak¬ ing, and much has been learned as to how the milk should bo set, the time in which the cream should rise, and tho temperature at which it should be churnel, tho indications now are that the next great need will bo a practical invention whereby tho cream from each cow can be kopt and churned by itself. As a rule, maa can govern ia matters of timo, speed and temporature, and bring these into working harmony, better than he can bring about that exact uni¬ formity in tho butter-making qualities required in dairy cows, for the best possible results in butter-making under the present methods of setting and churning. In other worls, allowing tho milk of each cow to vary at times as it may from iis own average standard, or from the average of the herd, but give ut a prac ical mithoi of getting from the m Ik of each, the most aud the best lu ter it is capable of producing. When wc havo this we will be as far advanced in profitable dairying as the enthusiast expects to bo wueu ho has a herd so carefully bred that the milk of all the cows is exactly alike; requiring a uni¬ form treatment throughout, from the setting of tho milk to the final taking of the buttor from tho churn. — The Farmer 8ALT FOB FEAR AND QUINCE TREKS. But is not in itself a manure, but its action in rclcus ng plant food locked in insoluble iorms mikes it often a profit¬ able application for some kin Is ef fruit trees. Wo Lear l n day or two ago of an experiment that a farmer male with » n-'jiected pear treo winch for yoars liad grown nothing of value, Think- ing he would kili tho tree he told his hired man during tho wint ;r or early spring to empty around it a barrel ol spoiled beef urmo. It was so done; butiiutealof dying tho tree took on a new lease of lifo, and its rich, groen foliage was a surprise to all who saw it. A year lator this tres was heavily loaded with the largost and finest psai* ertr . seen of its varioty. Thu tree hat kept i on bearing sines that application j though we hope not without a further eopnly of manure. Wo have always mado a practice of applying salt freely around quuico trees, though not te the exclusion of oilier manures. Quinces noei much higher feeding thau they get Heavy manuring will not make * make thorn run to leaf and wood in- eiend of fruit. Caution ehonld bo used in applyi lg salt not to put it or too strong. It is not a safe application for stono fruits, like cherry, peach and p’«m. The foliage of these trees is easily killed, and with an overdose ef salt at tho r >ots. the leaves will fall off and tho tree will quickly die. WHEAT BRAN. One advantage with this is that in addition ...... to ... beiug a good . , food . for , stock, it also enhances the value of the manure-heap almost to the extent of the cost of the bran. It is ono of the few materials that the farmer can afford to purchase for feeding, but the best results can be secured by mixing and feediug with cut-feed. Wuile not a complete food in iiaelf, biau adds to the valuo of cat-hav', straw and foddor, and by m xiag tborou-hly after cutting, stock can bo wintered if given a full food of this with but little grain. And tor this reason it will bo found a cheap food, It supplies, to a large extent, the ele- menu of nutrition that the other ma- tcrials are deficient in, so that by combining, g >od rations can be mado up. and in this way much that cannot be used to tho best advantago can, by combining with bran, be made into a good feed for stock. And belter results can be obtained by cutting aud mixing than by feeding alone. Stock are often inclined to pick ovor straw and fodder when fed whole, and much i* often wasted iu this way, when, if cut sad : bran is added, per cent, of waste is very small. For sheep and miU cows there are few materials that will equal bran; and when it is an item to secure the largost flow of milk, bran can be Ic’d to the milk-cows regularly all tho time with profit, when it can be 6ecured at what may bo considered a fair price; while wiih growing colts or mu’ei it will re- duce the amount of grain necessary to keep the stock in a good, thrifty coudi- tion. M xo 1 wi mi k, it is ono of tho best of foods tor gru vi, ( pi r s, or fOT thb sWws that aro smfktitrg pigs. Ed that h Muuudsrablo quantity can be used to t goad advantage, and especially during the winter .—Pratrte former. BET TREE* WITH CARE A Uttle car# in tatuag trees will save a grist deal of work afterward in tho orchard. I set out nearly one hundred tree* last spring that were mostly plums. Tho soil was light imm! sandy. I only watered them at the time of set¬ ting. Digging holes of suitable sire, I put iu half a wheelbarrow full of soft clay, and packed it to mako a dishing bottom to the ho'o that it might hold water better. Upon this I put rich sur¬ face seil, tn 1 thou sot the trees, lean¬ ing each one to the southwest. E ich hole was thon tit ed with surfaco soil, and each tree had a good watering. My hens task caro of tho fruit tres thee rest ef the season. Not a tree diod, nor wore they watered again, although the season wtfs very dry. Tho moisture was held in a very satisfactory manner by the clay dtdies, and the sun, strik¬ ing the tree* obi quoly, did not blister the bark nor injure any of them. Oats were sows »*verul time* dur ng tho sea¬ son and cultivated in. Tills kept tho fowls busy, furnished thorn with green food, and made them work all summer. No part of the yard dried down over one inch, while the same kind of soil in adjoining lie ds dried to tho depth of a foot or more. A little fine salt scattered around such treos helpt to keep them healthy. If trees are set loaning in the way I havo mentioned, they will soon be righted up by tne pre¬ vailing winds, and in a few years will muks better orchards th in trout set out plumb ..—form and Heme.

Paul (Minn.) correspondent ol the Philadelphia Times tells of a cmi- ons taeilent that may serve as a warn- ing to butchers an t to meddlers, In freat of a meat shop, on an iron ho#k, there hung a few days ago half t i pig, nieely prepared and of appetizing ( appearance. A dog come ruuuing up tho street, and happoning to see tho little pig, went np to it and longingly snuffed around it. Hardly had he put his nose o» the pig when he uttered c cry of pain and ran howling away. A second cur soon appeared and fared no better; he ran away howling as if e ghost bad laid its hand on him. Gradn> ally as a th.ru and a fourth dog had shared the same fate a crowd gaihered aud everyone looked with distrust at the porker. One of the owners of the shop, whe wanted to find out the causo of the trouble, at last went up to the pig, touched it, and also flew back as though a tarantula had stung him; he had re reived uu electrical shock. An ioves- tigation proved that an electric light wire had come iu contact with the hook tfn which lift meat hung nnd thus thk ft$ (lig WrryPmtplb'toty wfth feVc.ritf- qUAINT AND CIR10US.

At St. Louis a workman on the Merchants’ bridge lost his balance and fell into the water, ninety feet bolow, striking on his heal. He was badly shuken up and frightenod, but was not injured, and resumed his work in tho afternoon. A boys' kite-firing club at Middle- town, N.

Tho German press is discussing at length the merits of a new French re¬ peating air rifle called the “miracle gun.” The rifle was invented by Paul G Hard, in Paris, tho original projector of tho Parisan pneumatic post. It is described thus: “The weapon is light, much l.ghter than any of the army rifles now in use. It resembles tho magazine gun in that a steel cartridge about a span and a half long and as thick as a mau’s thumb, U attached to the ono barrol means of a screw. This cartridge contains 300 shots, which can be discharged as rapidly or slowly as a man desires. Since neither powder nor any other explosive, but only com¬ pressed and liquefied air, supplies the expelling force, no smoke and no flash accompany tho discharge. Only a short, sharp, low report is heard as the ball leaves the cartridge. At the re¬ cent trial tho ball traveled with won¬ derful accuracy and penetrated deep into the wall of the shooting room. As soou as one cartridge is emptied of its 800 shots, another cartridge can be scrawed on tho gun in the twinkling of an eye. M. G.JIard says that tho 300 shots in a cartridge can be produced at a cost of about two and a half cents. The gm itself can be manufactured for about $5. A Roy’s Prescnco of Mind. A boy living near Nassau City, Fla., was out fire-hunting a few nights ago, when ho planted his foot on something soft and slippery, and at once a wakened tho warning notes of a rattlesnake. By the fl.ckering glare of his torch he saw that he had trod upon tho reptile, but fortunately had planted his foot on its neck just back of the head, and though it folded its slimy coils around his an¬ kle and struck out with its fangs with lightning-like rapidity it was unable to turn its head to do mischief. The lad had presence of mind enough to keep his foot firmly planted upon its neck while with axo in hand he severed tho head from tho body. Magnanimous.

This hero now lies in prisou, while his admirers among the lower classes serenade him under his barred window and drink send through him in good thin gs to eat and the turn¬ keys. The question with the author¬ ities, says the correspondent, now is what they art to do with their prisoner. If they tutn him loose he will go back to the practice of brigandage again. who If they hang him of bandits the common in Greece people, they make heroes as used to of Robin Hood in Old England, di¬ will rise in riot.
