At fir3t I used whip and bitting bridle as others did, and I thought I must. Both caused much suffering, nnd in many cases bad habits also, while the fear of the whip made matters worse. By degrees I learned that gentleness and patience would take away the horse's desire to continue former "uabits, and the young ones would not learn them unless frightened or vexed. Although ad vanced in years I still continue to drive the wildest colts aud horse?, with tho worst of habits, witliont difficulty aud with success.

Boring holes in the stems of trees aud filling them with honey or molasses to make the fruit sweet wus in voguo in Europe several centuries ago, at least we must suppose so from the fact that intelligent men who were writing on horticultural subjects in these days denounced tho praotice. Then came inoculating the stems with sulphur to kill uoxious insects feeding on the wood or foliage, and this is still recommended and practised by tho ignorant and victims of charla tans, who profess to sell secret reme dies. We learn that there has been an "Elm Inoculating Company" doing a flourishing business in inoculating elm trees in the suburbs of this city, pro fessing tlmt by such au operation they can check the ravages of the elm leaf beetle. It is not at all strange that charlatans should try to sell their nos trums, but it does seem somewhat strange that thoy can find purchasers at this age of the world aud so near this great city. —New York Sun. A FRIEND CF AGRICULTURE. The death of Louis Pasteur recalls liow much agriculture owes to this great and most useful scientist. It was his discovery of tho germ by which the silkworm was diseased, and tho yeast germ, by which fermentation in beer that led to the souring of it, was caused, that really led tho way to tho accurate knowledge we now possess of the multitude of invisible organisms that nli'ect both injuriously and bene ficially all organized matter—the milk of tho dairyman, his cheese and but ter ; the trees of tho orchard aud nil mauLerand kinds of plants that grow, and others which cause diseases in an imals. His investigations and discov eries explained the nature of these minute bodies, that were really dis covered two hundred years ago, and were described by Leuwenbock nnd other naturalists, but whose special nature aud offices were unknown until Pasteur studied them and learned their habits of life and their effects upon matter and animals upon which they exerted their most curious influ ences. It was he, too, who first suggested the methods of rendering these active and everywhere prevailing bodies in ocuous by the action of heat, aud the teim by which this action is now known, viz. : "Pasteurizing," is so ex cellently adapted for its nse that it should to kept for this purpose, and its equivalent, sterilizing, dispensed with. Pasteurizing not only indicates the methods by which sterilization is accomplished, but it connects with the process tho name of its inventor, aud recalls to tho mind—aud will doi so as long as our language survives— t his eminent services to his race. Sure-i ly this man may justly bo termed ai help bearer to the world. —Now ITork;' Times. t TESTING AND PRESERVING EGGS. A way to tell bad eggs is to pa* : them in a pail o* water, and if good they lie on their side; ltjoad they will stand on their small ei*!?, the largo «!nd« always uppermost unless they nave been shaken comcdurably, wlieu tfaey will Man I cither cut up. Tlicro fori\ a bud run mi told by tlio wny .t ri.ht.'t in the wnt it, ulwiy . end | Uf, awer uu its Bide. k Au ckk tbui > lies flat is good to oat and can be do* pended on. How to keep eggs is a problem that has attraoted the attention of in quirers from the earliest times. They nil agree that (ho most prac ticable method is to envelop tho new laid egg in a coating of somo imper meable substance, inch as wax, tallow, oil, or a mixture of wax and olive oil, or of olive oil and tallow. Codot do Vaux suggested the plunging of eggs for twenty seconds into boiling water, in order to coagulate that portion of the albumen nearest the shell, nnd to pack thom in vessels half-filled with sifted cinders. This process, which, by-t lie-by, has been well known in some parts of Scotland for many years, yields excellent results; but if neg lected for but a second or two tho eggs ato liable to harden. For home consumption the Frenoh peasantry have for ages preserved their eggs in a very simple fashion. Thoy have a wooden case, or a large barrel, and pack tho eggs in thick layers of sawdust, fine sand, chalk, bran, cin ders, or coal dust so that they do not touch each other. In tho maritimo provinces the peasants use larger lay ers of ashes moistened with soft water. Both of these procosses are successful. Another system recommended is found to answer extremely well. Tho eggs are placed for an hour in a solu tion of fifty grammes of salicylio acid nnd a little spirits of wine diluted with a quart of water, and afterward packed away in bran in the cellar. At tho end of threo months thoy wero found in perfect condition and as well flavored as if just fresh laid.—South* em Farmer. STRAW AND PEED. In many sections of tho country feed will be very valuable tho coming win ter, nnd tho man who has a good lot of oat straw, and even wheat straw, and carefully saved, has tho bulk of the material which,if fed undorstandingly, Will prove a small mine of wealth to him. Straw is deficient iti feeding quality, principally in albuminous matter and fats. The thing to do is to feed somo food with it so os to re store the ''harmony," and to do this, if some sort of succulent food is fed ns root.? or silage, aud, in addition, if | '2OO pounds of oil meal is fed with encL ton of straw, a very well-balanced ration is secured, and one on which the cattle will do very well if they are not compelled to expend the greater part of their feed in proteotion from the cold. The feeding of straw and other light foods as tho bulky part of the ration calls for the best of hous ing, if tho full measure of the food value of tho ration is to bo obtained. This is why straw is not regarded as a satisfactory part food for the winter milker, but where this cow has suo culent food in somo form and gram strong in proteins, and has littlo ex posure to the weather of winter, it is found that thero is no objection to moderate quantities of straw being used. It is the abuse of it that has given straw an unfavorable reputa tion. Men use it as fall feed with which to economize,and, not properly combining it with proteins, failuro results, aud tho conclusion is at onco formed that "it is a pretty good thing on which to starve a herd." Too much straw with a full ration of proteins is apt to aggravate this matter of bad effect, but if a daily addition of roots or a small fee.l of silage is given it nets as a laxative, and naturo has a natural way, aud then even dairy cows may bo fed a limited amount of bright straw with commendable economy, Balauco tho ration in somo way and save the straw to feed aud do not\iso it as bed ding only. It has a feed value.— Practical Farmer. FARM AMD GARDEN NOTES. Where other fruits flourish usually grapes will grow. Tho cherry treo is less trouble than any other. Plant out and let alone. Undersized fruit of any kind is undesirable either for market or home use. It is of no advantage to sot out fruit trees unless good care is given them. Tho larger the number of fruit tho larger proportion of seeds to tho pulp. One of the essentials in growing fine strawberries is a good, rich soil pre pared in a tine tilth. In all localities the treatment must vary according to tho character of soil and the conditions of growth. In order to make the most in the gnowing of small fruits there should be no vacant places. Have tho rows fall. One of the principal advantages small fruits is that they furnish a sup ply of fruits before tree fruits will come into bearing. Tho canes of raspberries that have borne fruit this year can be out out now to a good advantage, and give tho new growth of canes more room. Trees should not be planted out un til they have ceased growing, tho newly grown wood matured and the leaves nearly or quite all fallen off. The matter in all fruits first be comes starch and then sugar. After it has reached the Btaroh stage it will ripen as well off the tree as upon it. Good care should always be taken to secure good, strong, vigorous piants for fall plauting, as weak plauts will rarely live through the winter. By thoroughly plowing and manur ing the land intended to be set out in trees in the spring, the work of plant ing out can be done earlier and better. A liuuiuiiiig liiril Plant.

I will tell you how I saw it done more than fifty years ago in my father's house, writes an old housekeeper. My sister did the work and I helped a lit tle. Tho beef's paunch is carefully emptied, turned inside out and laid in a tub, and the opening sowed up with a largo needle and linen thread. Then air-slaked lime is thoroughly sprinkled all over it, special care being taken in sprinkling the honeycomb part. lam not sure how long the tripo lay beforo it was tried with a broad-bladed table knife to seo if tho limo had loosened the inner lining of tho tripo, but I know my sister watched it, and as soon as it scrapod white and nice looking, it was scraped thoroughly, rinsed sev eral times and set to soak over night in plenty of water with a handful of salt in it. I remember seeing my sister add more limo sometimes —per- haps tho lime had been slaked too long —and 1 am sure she was careful to cleanse it just as soon as it was loos ened. It would "set" if left too long. I think the next morning the stitches were cut and caro was taken to see if any part had been uoglectod, and then tho knife was used again, the tripe be ing cut in pieces of tho size to suit. Tho soaking is kept up until ono's judgment tells ono that it is properly cleansed and ready for cooking. Tho process is not a pleasant one by any means, and the limo is hard on tho hands, but something can bo done to help by a pair of looso gloves. If this is tried I wish the result might be reported. Iu the days of whioh I speak wo made "rol-a-chees" of tho tripe and beef, but that is a custom which has gone out of date. It is an appotiziug dish on a cold winter day.—American Agriculturist.

A tigress had killed so many people that a largo re ward was offered for her destraotiou. She had recently dragged away a native, bnt being disturbed had left the body without devouring it. The shikaris believed that she would return to her proy during tho night, if it was left undisturbed upon the spot where she had forsaken it. There were no trees, nor any timber suitable for the construction of a mncharn. It was accordingly resolved that four deep holes should be dug, forming the corners of a square,tho body lying in the centre. Four watchers, each with his match lock took their positions in these holes. Nothing came and at length the moon went down and the night wns dark. Tho men wero afraid to go homo through tho jungles and so remained where they were. Some of them fell asleep. When daylight broke three of the shikari issued from their positions, but tho fourth had disappeared ; his hole was empty. A few yards distant his matolock was discovered lying upon the ground and upon the dusty surface were tho tracks of a tiger and the sweeping trace where somo largo body had been dragged along. Upon following up tho track, the remains of the unlucky shikari were discovered, hut the tigress had dis appeared. The cunning bruto was not killed until twelve months after ward, although many persons devoted themselves to the work. —Atlanta Con stitution. Mustard a Delicacy.
