A QUEER SOCIETY.
Th« Work of a Cigar.—Tip-
Saving Association.
Oolleoting and Disposing of Oigar Ends in
tho Interests of Charity.
Not Jong ago tho average American
citizen bit off or cut off tho small end of
h a cigar, before lighting, and throw it
away. Since an internal stamp duty
was placod on cigars, and their price has
advanced as a consequence, he does not
generally dispose of tho ends 1 > tnis way.
On the counter of nearly every place
where cigars are sold is a little machine
for cutting off the end before the smoker
places the cigar in Lis mouih. The tips
fall Into a receptacle, from which they are
collected at tho cose of each day. In
some cases they are disposed of to per¬
sons who smoke pipes, and in others they
are sold to manufacturers of fine-cut or
granulated smoking tobacco.
Stoekho'm is tho headquarters of a
benevolent eigsr-tip-saving association,
of which tbo King of Sweden is presi-
dent. All members of this society pro-
vide themselves with an apparatus for
cutting off the ends of cigars, with which
is combined n box for holding tho frag-
ments. This is carried in tho pocket
and can,if desired,be attached to or nw lo
a part of a cigar cam. At convenient
times tho contents of tho little box aro
emptied into a suitablo receptacle, kept
at home, and toward the end of the year
the entire collection of cigar-tips is for¬
warded to Stockholm. There they aro
sold at auction and the proceeds cm-
ployed in providing a sumptuous banquet
for poor children. At this banquet,
which usually occurs at Christmas or
New Years, there is an illuminated tree
oa which presents for the poor children
are placed. Brunches of this association
have been established in Germany and
Great Britain during the past few years,
and the revenues of the society arc now
very large. It is now proposed to form
a similar association in the United
States.
In several Europeao countries charred
cigar “stumps” have a commercial value,
They are bought by shepherds for mak¬
ing a decoction for killing insects on
sheep. Florists also buy them for the
purpose of burning in green-houses or
for steeping in water that is u c ed for
syringing plants infested by ants or other
insects. Some gardeners employ them
for making nicotine wafer, which is said
hasten tho growth of certain flowering
plants and to enuso them to put out
very large blossoms.
In _ _ Pans, . according ,, to Lo Temps, col-
feting e e* is the an “stumps” lm ustry of in cigars which and several cigar-
hundred persons of both sexes arc regu-
larly engaged. To be successful in this
business it is necessary to be up early and
late. Late at night, discarded rolls of
tobacco can be seen by thc fire on
them. The colleetors accord¬
ingly throng theatres, opera-houses, con¬
cert saloons, restaurants and wine shops,
ready to pick up the fragments of cigars
and cigarettes that the patrons of these
places throw into the street. Tho boule-
wards and parks are visited early every
morning long before the sweepers make
their rounds. The remnants collected
»ne sorted during the day and spread out
on paper to dry. Some of the fino to-
bacco is made over into cigarettes. A
portion of it is converted into 6nuff. Tho
loaves in cigars, deprived of thc ashes
and burned portions, aro sold for smok¬
ing in pipes. The waitersfin restaurants
save the cigar and cigarette ends left on
plates and sell them to dealers or manu¬
facturers. Thus hundreds of people pro¬
vide themselves with thc necessities of
bfe in saving the remains of the luxuries
of the rich.— Chicago Times.

Fouuder, from Overfeed,
A contributor to tho New York Tri¬
bune nays: A little city boy spending a
week with an Ohio farmer fed a youDg
horse in pnsturo nineteen cars of old
corn. Tho owner found tho animal fin-
Uhing his feast, nml thinks he could have
saved him from founder had ho known
what to do. Overeating, and consc-
qu nt foundering, is ono of those
things moro easily proventcl than cured.
The results of the total disarrangement
of the system by tho impaction of tho
stomach and bowols cannot be wholly
avoided, but they may be ameliorated by
judicious treatment. No water is to bo
given, or the food would swell and fer¬
ment and rupture the stomach, with very
quickly fatal results. A largo dose of
raw linseed oil is the best remedy, and a
quart is the right quantity. This causes
the ejection of the undijested matter and
the relief of tho intestines. Tho after
treatment is of importance; the stomach
wonts rest, and feeding should bo wholly
su pended for twenty-four hours, when
n quart of oatmeal gruel only should bo
given. Oue quart of this at a meal is
sufficient for the next day, after which
regular feeding should bo approached
gradually and cautiously. The resulting
stiffness of the fore limbs should bo
treated by thirty-drop doses of aconite
and hot fomentations and rubbing of the
legs and feet with some active liniment,

Prof. Wyatt, in his present work,
“Modern High Farming,” nttempts to
impress upon farmers the necessity of al¬
lowing theirfarm-yard manures to under¬
go a thorough process of fermentation,
to so completely rot or carbonize beforo
making use of them in the field. In or¬
der to make his meaning still more clear,
he says;
“Let it he remembered that first, if
freshly made manure be put into the soil,
the saline and nitrogenous portions will
nil bo washed away by the first fall of
ruin and lost.
Second, if the manure be allowed to
thoroughly ferment, the nitrogenous mat¬
ters will remain insoluble in the soil,and
will thus be held at the disposal of the
plants ready for assimilation.
A few experimenters have striven
within the past few years to persuade
themselves and the world that the total
abandon.nent of farm-yard manure and
the sole employment of chemical fertili¬
zers would result in immense economy
and increased production; but in nearly
every case within our knowledge where
the reduction of these theories has pre-
vailed over common sense, the result has
bccn _ to 8 thc least discouramnm \^
Artlflcial raaaures o{ every d arQ
necessary, we have always admitted and
sha U always propound; but that they can
ever profUabIy and u , efully re p laca
those made ou the farm, is a proposition
too ridiculous to merit discussion.”
Value of Artichokes.
Jerusalem artichokes are similar but
slightly inferior to potatoes in nutritive
value, says Rural World , but, owing to
their immense yield and cheapness of
r lisi »g> Ullic b more valuable as stock,
particularly hog, food. Yields of ono
and two thousand bushels per aero are
obtained, while tho culture is not as
cost 'y as that of potatoes. Thc planting
‘ s ^ one ia about the same way, but the
growth of stocks is so strong that the
ground is soon covered, and all weeds
are effectually choked out. Although
the leaves and stalks are rough and coarse,
stock are very fond of them, and will
greedily eat the tops to the ground if
allowed to get to them. Usually the
hdfs arc turned into the patch after the
tubers have matured, which will not be
until late in the season, and allowed to
do their own digging. Fed in this way
with the tops left on the ground and the
droppings of the hogs also, the crop can¬
not fail to improve the land. A freez¬
ing does not injure the tubers in the
least, either for food or seed. They can
bo left in tho ground until spring, and
then fed to the hogs. Usually the hogs
will leave enough of flu tubers in the
ground to reseed it, if not kept there too
long. Some prefer, however, to let the
hogs clean out the patch thoroughly
and replant in hills and drills, rather
than let a volunteer crop come up.
Many arc afraid to plant them for fear
that once get them into the land they can.
not be eradicated. The fear is unfound-
ed, and it is strange they aro not more
widelv grown. The red Brazilian is eon-
sidered the best.
Overrcflnement In Itrcedlng.
Those acquainted with the methods
common wiih some breeders of swine,
and the results obtained, know that
thero is a tendency to overrefine their
swine. Breeding to a refined standard
without cautionary reserve easily results
in a fineness of bone, a body almost de¬
nuded of hair, charming to look upon by
the fancier who exhibits at the show ring
but objects of suspicion to the utilitarian
hog raiser, in whose miud the possession
of these attributes in an exaggerated de¬
gree is associated with delicacy of con¬
stitution, infecuiulity and a degree of
trouble and vexation in raising tho young
pigs only to be realized by those who
have had it to do. Some breeders will
remember how at oue time the Saffolks,
highly esteemed as they then were, were
by many breeders so finely bred, that
sows would only drop four to six pigs at
ft time, and these were as much trouble
to raise as so many delicate children_
subject to chills if the weather was the
least cool, with hardly strength
enough to take their natural nourish¬
ment, succumbing quickly to the slight¬
est exposure, or to disturbances of the
bowels, to which the young pig of feeble
constitution is so prone, A well-known
writer says on this subject: “No man
who wants a hog for profit, will have his
wants fully met until he gets such as are
hardy enough to stand pretty severs
cold, some neglect, and be quite ready
to thrive with plain, even what would bo
rough feed for the oxquisttely bred and
pampered hog. The pigs of tho stronger
kinds—thoso with plenty of hair and
not too fine bone—will survive, though
they are farrowed in cold weather, and
this, too, without extra care and nurs¬
ing, Moro pigs will bo dropped at each
farrowing time, and it is safe to say that
half a dosen strong, well-haired, thrifty
sows will raise as many pigs in a season
as will be saved and raised by ten sows
exquisitely bred and accustomed to closo
confinement .’’—Chicago Times.
Fall Plowing.
Fall plowing, says Bin: Porley Pooro
in tho Cultivator, is important for those
who mean to farm well. Ono great
trouble in our farming is tbo fact that
we do not till our lands enough, Ono
shallow plowing in the spring, with
many a balk and dodge not plowed at
all, is too often considered sufficient;
but what right has nny one to expect a
good crop from such tillage? If it is
obtained, it is the result of accident.
Yes, gentlemen, such of you ns would
raise good crops from year to year, ir¬
respective of drought or wet seasons,
must till your land thoroughly and deep
while ycur teams are vigorous and
healthy in tho fall. Speed the plow
over stubble and corn-hill, and not only
over but under them, the deeper the
better. Yes, tbo deeper the better, ex¬
cept, perhaps, in some extraordinary
instances. Turn up the furrows as deep
and ridgy as possible this fall, and let
them frost-slack through the winter.
Keep everything off that can tramp in
the least if there is any clay or marl in
its composition. Let it stand in that
shape, and when spring comes I will
tell you what further to do with it, to
be almost sure of a good crop of wheat,
oats, corn, or anything els3 that will
grow in this country. Plow all you
possibly can in the fall, for the purpose
of lightening your labor in tho spring,
which, at the best, is always short with
us, after the fields are dry enough to
plow, besides the additional considera-
tion that teams are usually in the worst
possible plight to do any considerable
amount of work. ’ Therefore, speed tho
plow every leisure moment this fall, cot
only to save time in the spring, nor
merely to pulverize the soil with frost
(which, by the way, is an all-important
thing), but last, though not least, to
destroy the insects and vermin that have
gone into wiuter quarters. Doubtless,
late fall plowing will be found our best
protection against the increase of all such
pests.
Transplant,(is Emit Trees.
The transplanting of fruit trees is very
simple and effective when properly un-
derstood. Trees should never be planted
in a square or round hole, such as you
would dig for setting a post. Many
trees transplanted in this way die, much
to the discouragement of the planter,
who attributes his failure to the insects,
drought or anything rather than to the
manner of transplanting. A good plan
is to take a plough and break out tho
wholo length of tho row each way,
checking fifteen, twenty to fifty feet
each way, as you may elect, running five
or six or more furrows each way, making
sure to break the land as deep as you
wish to set the trees. It is best to uso a
two horse plough; then iu each check
you can draw out the earth a sufficient
width and depth to suit the roots of tho
tree to be planted. Trimall broken
roots smoothly and straighten them out
at full length in the hole; cover care-
fully so as to get the earth firmly around
each root, then fill up the hole and press
the soil down firmly with tho foot. Not
ono tree in a thousand will die if planted
this way, provided the tree was all right
when it was sel.
As a general rule, trees should b e
transplanted to the same depth that they
stood in the nursery, or where they were
growD. Dwarf pear trees are an excep¬
tion to this rule, and should be planted
deep enough for the union of the pear
and its quince roots to be below the sur¬
face of the ground, so that natural roots
may shoot out from the pear in course of
time, thereby converting the dwarf into
a stnndard tree.
The object In breaking the land each
way as above advised, is in order that
the roots may have free access to loose,
raellow cnrth > to run in every direc-
^' on ^ rom ^ ree - Yf only asmall num-
^ er * rees a e Lie planted a mattock
or spading fork would suffice, using care
to break the ground each way several feet
from where the tree is to stand .—From

A Glutton.
In a conversation with a leading law-
ycr recently, we fell to talking about glut-
tons an( i gluttony, and he told me a story
about the gluttony of a brother lawyer
who was in the front rank of his profes-
8 i° n iu this city, but who, a year or two
a g°> fell a victim to his intemperate
habit of eating and drinking. “I was
w ’fb him and another eminent lawyer,”
Mid my friend, “at Conoy Island sev-
eral summers ago, and one day he re-
quested our company at his parlors at 11
o’clock that night, ‘to a little lunch.’
We were on hand, and were somewhat;
a PP a lled at the costly and extensive re-
P ast which ho had ordered. There was
such a variety of dishes and so many
courses that it required all our ingenuity
to Tror 'b °ur way through them, and pre¬
ten d to partake of each, so as not to
bring on a fit of illness. But not so with
our host, who partook largely of every-
thing on the menu. I will tell you a few
things that he got away with. Among
them were two cups of coffee, an oyster
6 ^ ew . a dozeu raw, a whole lobster, a
large dish of chickeu salad, several slices
of bread and butter, and two quart-bot¬
tles of champagne. We got away with
our lives at one o’clock, and though I
retired to bed I lay awake until morn
ing, expecting to hear that my friend
had been seized with a mortal illness.
As the tidings did not arrive, I arose
about breakfast time, still expecting to
find that he was dead. But, on the
contrary, he was the first man I met on
the piazza, looking ai fresh as a rose.
We have another prominout lawyer in
Chicago who is going the same way.” -

Taking Care of Animal Pets,
There are several places where birds,
dogs and cats arc taken in and cared for,
and those who have a reputation for
carefulness make it very profitable, says
a New York letter to the Troy Times.
Ono bird dealer’s store was studded with
cages, each containing a pet and each
duly labeled to correspond with the re¬
ceipt which is always given nnd always
required when the cage is taken away.
Dogs are cared for at the dog fanciers’,
and the animals are leashed under a shed,
and are occasionally taken out for exer¬
cise. One of the most successful per¬
sons in this business is a woman who has
a well-established reputation, and is
therefore extensively patronized. She
charges $8 a month for cats and from $0
to $15 lor dogs. Birds are cheaper, and
a canary is boarded for $2 a month,
while mocking birds are $5. This wo¬
man’s husband does most of the work,
and claims to be a doctor for both ani¬
mals and birds. They feed the cats
milk and fish, with minced liver and oc¬
casionally boiled rice. Dogs are fed
bread and milk, soup and meat in small
quantities, as it heats the blond, “Dog
crackers” (ns they are called) are exten¬
sively used. They are mado in England,
nnd large quantities are now imported.
The birds got seed, crackers, eggs and
apples. The food is constantly changed,
this being favorable to health—and if a
pet should unfortunately die it is im¬
mediately stuffed. This establishment
will probably clear $1000 for the past
season, and yet how few have any idea
that such a business exists.
THE YOUNG MIDSHIPMAN.
And tho Manner In which He f.o*t Ills
l oo ! lire Hiss.
In tho days of long ago a young mid¬
shipman in a western town received or¬
ders to join his ship, which was to sail
lo tho capture of Vera Cruz. lie was go¬
ing oil lull of ardor and enthusiasm, just
spoiling to eimuolato himself on the
altar of his country, but the night before
ho started ho went to say good whom bye to he a
beautiful little maiden with
was in lovo. lie mado the customary
vows of a young officer going off to his
first battls, but stayed so late that when
lie fiuajly kissed his lovo farewell and
ran to catch the stage the stage was gone
and ho was obliged to deter his depnr
turn until tho next night. Tho noxt
night ho went to say good-bye again, third
and again ho lost tho stage. The
night ho came for a positively last fare-
.well, but as ho was going to give his
sweetheart a final kiss her mother inter-
forod and said: “No, Jim, you don’t can’t
kiss Mollio good-bye to night. I
beliovo you are going to Mexico at nil.
It is just n scheme of yours to come
around hero and kiss hergood-bye.” night and
lie caught tho stage that
fought bravely in Mexico. Years rolled
by and in his broader field of life lie
forgot his boyish love. The Civil War
came and at its closo he was covered
with glory, lie is now an Admiral, and
yesterday I was with him at tho Murray
Hill Hotel. We were walking the cor¬
ridor when a beautiful woman, on tho
shady side of fifty I should say, with
snow-whito hair, passed us, and stop¬
ping a little way off stood nud looked at
the admiral. lie is a fine looking old
man, and is a great favorite with tho
ladies. Ho saw at onco tho impression white
ho had made on tho lady with old the fool, I
hair and said: “I am an
know, but I think I’ve made a ‘mash’.
Let us stroll by arrnin.” As we passed
tho lady the admiral beamed upon hor
graciously, but to his amazement she
walked straight up to him with a silvery
lau gli and shaking her forefinger at him
sale J: “No, Jim, you’re up to your old
tricks again."
If the roof had fallen the admiral
would have not been so much astonished.
But quickly recovering his self posses¬
sion ho grasped tho lady's hand and
said : “Why, bless you, I knew you from
the first, and wanted to scq if you re¬
membered mo.”
“Jim, Jim,” sho rojoined, Why don’t “ you are
just as bad as evor. you
grow bettor as yon g ow old ? Now
who am I ?”
The admiral was nonplussed again but
with a grace, courtesy and sweetness
that I have never scon equaled he bowed
and said: “My heart remembers you,
for my heart is young—but my head is
old and my head forgets.” smiling
“Well,” him, replied Mollie the lady, up
at “I am B——
Tha admiral uttered an excla i ation
of surprise and stood for a minute look
ing at the lady. That name had swept
away forty wars.' rears with all their changes,
their their sufferings and their
honors, and the admiral was a boy again.
I wish vou could have seen lus face,
“And I have not seen you since I went
to the Mexican War,” he said “ and
your mother would not let me kiss VOU
good-bye on the third night By Jove,
I believe II take that kiss now.”
j. v- JNO, no. , that IS outlawed. ^ . t ,-1 Como,
lot me introduce you to my husband.”
I3v tills time tho Admiral hftd bo-
thought him to introduce me to the
lady, and we were both presented to her
husband. Wo had a pleasant party s“tory at
dinner and the Admiral told the
of his departuro for Mexico just as I
have toid it to you.
