SUPERSTITIONS ABOUT FIRE. Where a fire burns upon tho hearth the Germans say that lightning never strikes. In Cambridgeshire there is a curious belief to the effect that a fire started by a lightning stroke can only be quenched with milk. In Devonshire if a fire burns blue and dead it is thought to be a forerun¬ ner of death or disaster in that house. In Wales and in Cornwall miners burn their hats upon the birth of a male child; if a girl be born his neigh¬ bors burn it for him. The Sicilians say that fire will not burn a man born on St. Paul’s Day ^January 25), bat that if a woman be burned on that day the sore will never heal, and will eventually cause her death, according to tho S(. Louis lie public. When a Russian family moves from one house to another they always rake all the tire from the hearth of the old domicile, and carry it in a closed pot to their new residence. In Greece, when one peasant borrows fire from another’s hearth to kindle bis own, the owner of tho fire must accompany tho borrower to his home “to see the fire blaze,” otherwise the one making the loan will have his house and goods destroyed by tho de¬ vouring element. The Ileal Thing. In tho meatsliops of the towns in N cw Mexico and Arizona tho visitor from tho east is apt to notice that tho dressed carcasses of sheep have a tuft of wool still attached to the head and the tail. This is left by the butcher to assure the customer ttiat it is mut¬ ton, and not goat flesh, that he is buy¬ ing, for iu these territories many flocks of goats arc reared and pastured by the small Mexican ranchmen to bo killed for food for tho poorer natives. Roast or stewed kid, with Chile pep¬ per sauce, is an esteemed dinner dish at the table of many well to do Ameri¬ can and Spani sh-American citizens.— Philadelphia Record. Weak ns a Cnt Is a ball simile, for the ent is a very muscular animal for its size. But to be as weak as a convalescent after a wasted and pi otraeted disease is to be week indeed. Nothing in the way of a tonic promotes convalescence, hastens a gain in strength, like ilostetter’s Blomach Bitters. It increases appetite, lie ps digestion and induces sleep. Nervous inva¬ lids derive from it unspeakable benefit. It cures malaria, rheumatism, constipation. It does not make prayers any less elf ective if they arc delivered while holding to a plow.

It is not so mneh tho amount of money we can get in, as it is the faculty of keeping the expenses down that makes the profit in all eases.—New York World. BURNING DRY WEEDS. We never liked the practice of let¬ ting weeds grow until their seeds were ripened, which is often defended by the plea that they can then bo gath¬ ered together and burned. A great many weed seeds are shelled in cutting or pulling tho weed and getting it to the heap. Then unless some dry wood is used to make an extremely hot tiro, it is by no means certain that all the weed seeds will be destroyed. 'I he heat of fire bursts tho seed pods and they fall to the earth, If tho fire burns slowly without much heat, tho carbonic acid gas which is thus de¬ veloped does not rise and be dissipated into the air, but remains at the bottom of the heap. Any one who makes u fire of weeds knows how hard it is to get the bottom to burn. Tho weed seeds are thus protected, and will often spring up, especially around the edges of the tiro where ft heap of weeds was burned the previous year—Bos¬ ton Cultivator. SMALL FRUITS ON NEW FARMS. There aro many reasons why persons who start into farming should commence with berry bushes and vines rather than with trees, if their object be tho supplying of their own tables with fruit. Strawberry plants come into bearing tho year after they are set out, while goose¬ berry, currant, rasperry and black¬ berry bushes will prodtico good crops in two years from the tiino they aro planted, provided they receivo suit¬ able attention. The cost of cuttings of grapes, cur¬ rants and gooseberries is very small, they can bo sent through tlio mails at cheap rales, and they are easily rooted by cutting them in suitable lengths and sotting them in a trench that can bo made by simply forcing a spade in tho soil. All but one or two of the upper lmds should bo covered with soil, which should bo crowded closo to them with the foot. Iu midsummer, it is best to give them a partial shade. This may bo done by menus of a fcuco board fastened to supports on tlio south or east side of tho row. Tho board should stand about two inches from tlio ground, ami four inches from tlio cuttings. If tlio soil is rich, is kept free from weeds and grass and is covered with mulch the roote d uut^ n gg 1 1 oilo wing year!* jrr ^e fall may be over . ter by placing them in the collar or by burying thorn in the ground deep enough to protect them from the frost. FATTENING SWINE AT SMALL COST. Haphazard methods must not pre¬ vail if wo would fatten sivine quickly and economically, writes M. H. Per¬ kins in tho American Agriculturist. Wo should feed all tlio fat-producing food that can he properly digested and assimilated, but there is great danger of excess in this direction. Too much will causo tho hogs to be oomo cloyed, they will lo.so their up petites, the digestive organs will bn overworked, and a general inaction of the animal’s functions will ensue, ro suiting in a loss of weight instead of a gain, and thus defeating the feeder’s purpose. Of course, corn is tho usual fattening grain, lmt it is so highly carbonaceous that when fed exclu¬ sively, tho difficulties mentioned aliovo are almost sure to appear. Hogs will eat and profitably digest more corn if onc-fourth of the grain ration is com¬ posed of wheat bran. Roots must not be forgotten ; turnips, beets, potatoes or carrots, when mashed or sliced, afford a most desirable supplement to a deit of corn. They aro cooling and laxative, and materially aid and pro¬ mote digestion. I have no doubt that swine will fatten much more rapidly and at less eost when allowed a little bran and a few roots daily, than when confined to a diet of corn. The sea¬ son best adapted to the fattening of animals is the moderately cool weather of autumn, avoiding the waste neces¬ sary in severe weather cansed by the increased quantity of food which is required to maintain the animal heat. HEAVES IN HORSES. ^ IC °l'i n * on °* some of our most eminent veterinarians heaves in horses ia caused by feeding coarse, indig' -ti ble, and musty food, thesi causing an irritation of the nerves which supply the walla of the fctomaeb, an<l this ir ritation is extended to the branches of nerves which supply the lungs,and this of course affects the breathing, producing what is iater called broken wind. When the disease or affection has reached th-s stage the lungs will have lost much of their power of con traction, owing to the degeneration of air cells and the paralysis of tl innscnlar tissues Medicines will vary little for an animal affected w. heaves in eit or stages, but care in feeding and ti kind of food given is everything, a. while it may not be possible to cure a long standing case of heaves, tho dis¬ tressing symptoms can always be re¬ lieved by close attention to food and water. First remove all musty faulty food of all kinds and give that which is less bulky, rich, nutritious ami readily digested. Give corn and oats about equal parts ground together and use this on cut hay slightly moistened. Well cured eornfodder may bo given at night for tho animal to pick upon when hungry. Or the animal may have clean hay inst ead, but all kinds of dusty, musty food should be care fully avoided. Besides being careful to avoid all faulty food do not allow tfio animal to drink much water just before being taken out for work, but give water before feeding.—Haw York Sun. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Fall planting of stone fruits is not advisable. Plaster scattered on the stable floor neutralizes bad odors. Teasing horses render* .hem vicious; do not permit it. Go into whiter quarters with ns many young bees as possible. It is claimed that no case of tuber¬ culosis has ever been known among tho Devon breed. To make a good driver a man must be evenly balanced, level-headed, have a good temper, brains and an aptness for the business. Bees generally require about thirty pounds of stores upon wliioli to winter. Sometimes they will need oven moro and again they will consume consider¬ ably lens. Tho Mediterranean varieties of fowls lay white eggs and tho Asiatic varieties brown ones, Tho cross breeds lay eggs varying m tint from cream to brown. There is more profit, in an orchard than in a grain fiold of equal size, yet the avorago farmer always neglects tho former and bostows all his ener¬ gies on the latter. If you have common lions which do not pay, grade them up with thor¬ oughbred males; thou clean up mid feed less corn, and you will soon bo c'li the road to better results. It is not difficult to keep hens ami sheep from getting sick, but it is not so easy to euro them when they are sick. It is usually olieapor and better to kill tho in than to try to save thorn. As tho results of its investigations the Central California Beekeopor’s Association recommends thirty drops of carliolio acid to a gallon of extract¬ ed honey in all cases of bee puralysis. Feed tbo fowls whole corn at, night if you wish, but in the morning themUiove wheat. aa.H bnm or scraps from tuo_ table’; mix to a stiff dongh with water or milk. As old geese aro better layers and mothers than young ones, and young goose are always in demand iu tho markets, a poultrymau finds it pays to keep tho old ones, as they ore pro¬ lific for twonty yours, Fowls are creatures of habit in tlio strictest sense, and when once tlioy form a habit, such ns egg-eating, feather-pulling, or eating to excess, they will continue tho fault as long us they have opportunities for so doing, Havo yon mi old rail fence occupy¬ ing ground which has not, produced you anything for years but briars and hornets’ nests?

Stop the leaks I Box stalls for cuttle are advantage¬ ous on the scoro of comfort and clean¬ liness, ns well ns from tho fact that more and better manure can bo made by thus having plenty of room to lit¬ ter the cattle copiously, and have tho liquids as well as the solids taken up and saved in the bedding. A 0x9 stall is usually satisfactory. Few lines of farm industry make re¬ turns for tho time, labor and money, than horse raising. It costs no more to raise a good colt than it does a good steer or heifer, and no more to keep a good brood mare than a cow. The colt, at 2 or 3 years old, will bring from two to throe times the price of the steer or the heifer. The small fruits are adapted to a greater variety of soils and climates then the large fruits. Strawberries succeed in every school district in tho Union, and there is scarcely any place between the Atlantic and Pacific where raspberries and blackberries do not grow wild and where their cultivation is not attended with success. Till the canning process was invented and gen- | rally intr > ^rnall fruit# vra ro of j rnmparatively little value , They de- i eayed so quickly after they became rij>e that it was necessary to eat them Immediately or to preserve them by | drying. But by means of the canning j process they can now be preserved any length of time without having their flavor essentially impaired. The cost of preserving them is slight, as the same cans can be used for many years.
