THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA Agricultural. Mannsemciit of llalky Hones Tlio first and boiler way U never to havo n balky horse, irtiorscs nrc liandknl prop erly they will never balk. Alter a horse bai been "foolrd," as horsemen very properly ay when a horso balk, It will require, ix VAst amount of caution management to cor rect tlio bad habit. Horses aro taught to balk by stupid drivers, who havo really less good senso than tlio animal they drive. Many strong and excellent horses aro man aged so Imperfectly that they soon becomo almost lncorrlglblo baiters; whereas, If a driver of ordinary Intelligence) had held tlio reins, tlio animals would havo always been as tmo as steel. If a horso Is properly man- nied ho will draw with all his might, trot or run as his driver may Indicate, until ho drops in his harness from exhaustion, After a horso has really contracted the habit of balking, the vico ran only bo cor rected by kindness and gentlo treatment. Tito more he Is whipped, kicked, clubbed, and handled roughly, the more obstlnato ho will be. Hence, throw away whips and clubs, and let tlio gentlo treatment bear rule. Then, beware of overloading. A person can coax out of a horso a service that whips and kicks never can secure. Always provide somo means to cnablo a team to start a hc:v vy load easily. Avoid stopping if possiblo where It will be difficult to start. It is better to let a team stop for a moment, ten times, when hauling n lead up a slope, than to allow It to Btop In a placo where it would bo difficult to start. The writer once was accustomed to carry pieces of plank to the Held for the wheels of the wagon to rest upon while it Is being loaded with potatoes orcorn bo that tho team would move oil' readily with a heavy load, that they could never start if tho wheels had been allowed to sink into the ground whilo tho load was increas ing in weight. When a horso balks on ac count of exhaustion, allow the animal to rest until he has recovered strength to draw his load. Above all beware of too heavy loud, of impatience or roughness, and over loading. Practical farmer. Keeping Apples through tlio Winter. Jlr. Alexander Hyde, a well known agricub turist of Massachusetts, communicates to tho New York Times somo useful suggestions in reirard to kcepine apples through tho win ter. Ono method is to wrap each apple a bit of old newspaper, the paper serving both to keep out the air and to prevent the apple from bruising In transportation method more effectual still is to fill the bar rels nearly full of apples and thea put in some dry fine sand or powdered plaster and shake It down gently. This will fill up all the intcre&ticcs between the apples and keep them fresh indefinitely. Another mode is to put the apples in some dry, sandy or gravelly soil just as turnips and potatoes are pitted. On this point Mr. Hyde says: "They will keep splendidly through the winter thus pitted, but must be used speedily in the spring after they aro dug out, as they will rot soon after exposure to tho light and air. In order to pit apples, select some dry spot whero there is no possibility of water filling the pit, and dig a hole threo or four feet deep and of any required size, place somo clean dry straw on the bottom and on this tho apples to tho depth of two feet, cov ering the whole with a layer of straw and then a layer of dry earth, raising tho latter above the general level of the ground and sloping it roof fashion, so that it will shed rain. Tho apples will come out in the spring as crisp as cabbage when pitted in this way." Hone Fodder. Tho practice of feeding horses with hay by the truss is wasteful in the extreme. Much of the hay placed in the rack is pulled out and trodden under foot by the horses, who uso it, not for food but or amusement. By cutting a truss of hay into chaff every blado of it will be con sumed, and it will bo found that three-quv-tersof a pound of cut hay will go as far as one pound of uncut hay in the daily rations of a horse. Coachmen and grooms in pri vate stables do not like tho system of feed ing horses on mixed forage namely on bruised oats, chaff maiso given together because owing to the bulk of tho forago sup plied being more easily weighed, the facili ties ior fraud aro diminished. It is Btatcd that an English omnibus company have for many years adopted the plan of mixed for age, and no ono can look at their horses without being btruck by their admirable con dition, notwithstanding hard work. A producer of pork in Muskingum coun ty, Ohio, who has made an experiment with hogs with a view to ascertain how far cold retards the rate of fattening, reports tho fol lowing results: Carefully weighing the hogs fed, and the corn fed to thsm, and estimating pork at four cents per pound, be found that what he had fed out during the first wetk in October returned (in p0rk) 80 cents per bushel; tho first week in November, CO cents, the third week 40. the fourth week in Nov ember asd the month of December, 25; the first half of January, 5; the last balf,0. It gradually grew colder till the latter part of November, from which time it remained about stationary till tho 1st of January, after which it rac down to zero, and below in the latter part of tho month. Tho hogs were well sheltered in a good pen with plank floor. Agricultural Ileport. Saving Seed Corn.

A CATSK1LL i'AIRV TALK A littlo boy and girl were trudging home from school, swinging their luncheon basket between them. Tho littlo girl's faco was prcttfynnd good humored; tho boy had an ugly habit of frowning nnd shutting his mouth firmly when any thing did not please lim. Tho sister had only to find tho largest slice of buttored bread in tho luncheon bas ket to bi ing this ugly scowl ; nnd tho good school-mistress said that Otto would make neither a kind nor generous man if ho did not mend that troublesome temper of his. Tho evening was clear and beautiful. You never saw a country like tuat through which these children walked, Job. The laud was very level, and protected by dykes from tho overflow of tho sea. Tho meadows wcro rich with grass and wild flowers, whero large herds of sleek cattlo fc.1 j and canals wound in and out among theso fields, with barges floating along on their clear waters. If you were not an ignorant boy, Job, you -would know at a glanco that this country was Hoi land, where tho first Dutch settlers of New York came from,evcn as Nip's Yankco giant landed on tho coast of New England. The boy and girl, Otto and Sophia Snyder by name, had entered tno wido meadow which alone separated them lrom their home. "Let us rest a while," said Otto, throwing himself on tho ground J and Sophia followed ihs example. The grass rose like a green sea all about them. Over against tho sky was the neat vlllago whero they lived, tho red-roofed houses shaded by willow-trees. Otto knew Aunt Katrine would expect him to feed the hens and pigs, as well as to drive tho cows home; still ho sat In tho grass. They talked about tho beetles toiling at their feet, the busy, hurrying nnts, and Otto tried to catch a pretty field-mouse that dart ed past him to hide in the ground. "If I could find the nest, what fun it would bo to take the baby micol" exclaimed tho boy, crawling along on his hands awl knees to the spot where tho mouse had disappeared, Threo storks were roaming by the water' side, among flags and osiers, in search of frogs. Oh, Otto! look up there I" cried Sophia, pointing to the sky. Otto forgot the hunted mouse in a moment, and sprang to his feet to gaze in tho direc tion indicated by his sister. High up in the air were two doves, with feathers of dazzling whiteness, that soared along unconscious of danger. A large black hawk was winging its swift flight in. keen pursuit of the pretty doves. At last tho birds seemed to become awaro of their peril, for the hawk darted above them, prepared to swoop down on the helpless mates. The children, who had watched their movements with breathless in terest, now saw them circle nearer and near er to the earth in their terror of the cruel en. cmy in pursuit. "Dear littlo birds, I will shelter you,"cried Sophia, holding ont her upron in her eager ness to save them. The doves sank into tho apron, exhausted with fatigue and fear, and tho girl clasped them in her arms. The hawk dashed down until his sharp beat and glittering eyes were close to Sophia's face: and she screamed with terror, but Bhc did not drop tho doves. JNow came the ugly frown on Otto's face. Ho seized a stick and aimed a blow at the bold hawk. "Tho doves belong to us I Let me see you touch them 1" he shonted, angrily. I he hawk gave a hoarse shriek of rage and disappointment, then roso slowly in the air, and flew away in search of other game. Tho children cautiously uncovered tho birds to admire them, and Otto held one, while Sophia carried the other. Never wcro such lovely birds seen. Their plumago was snowy on the wings, and shaded to crimson and emerald green on tho breasts. Around each slender neck was fastened a gold chain stud ded with jewels, which flashed in tho sun like a circlet of fire. The captives were restless to resumo their flight after tho danger was over ; but the children had no idea of losing such charm ing pets, so they carried them homo in spite of their frantic efforts to escape Xhe villago was as clean as constant scrub bing by the tidy housewives could make it. You should havo seen Aunt Katrine, rain or shine, polish the door step, just as they do still in the city of Philadelphia. Tho vlllago people were already drinkiug tea after the day's labors, and tho children passed open doors which afforded glimpses of tables, shelves and earthenware, all spotless pure. Auut Katrine was surprised to see the prizes tho children had captured at the ex pense of being late to supper. She put on her spectacles and held up her hands. "I never saw doves with chains around their necks," she declared. "I shall take mine off," said Otto resolute ly. Ho untwined the chain, and tho dove im mediately changed to a little girl with soft brown hair, her dress of somo delicate fabric, like a cobweb, embroidered with silver stars. with silver shoes on her feet, and a cap of saver on her head, bho was unliko any ono that Aunt Katrine had ever seen, and tho children thought her an angel. The other dove no sooner saw tho transform matlou of its mate than it gavo a loud note of alarm, and slipping through Sophia's fat fingers, soared high in the air. Sophia was staring so earnestly at the stranger child that she did not recover her wits until her pet was out of reach. The dove child, remaining below, gazed about worfdcringly for a moment, and then sprang up into the air and tried to snatch the chain from Otto's grasp, Sho nearly sue ceeded In doing so, but tho boy was larger and stronger, and held it in his grasp. "This belongs to me, and you do too," he said, irowning. "When I am a man I shall take the chain to Rotterdam, and sell it for a pot of money." Aunt Katrine and Sophia were very kind to the stranger. They stroked her fair hui and admired her (liens, while greedy Otter ran away to hide tho precious chain in a particular nook behind the beam, whero he kept a bird trap and fishing-rod. When sup per was served, tho dove child pecked dainti ly at tho coarse bread, but sho could uo'. talk beyond making littlo cooing sound qulto like a dove. Auut Katrine took off her star-spangled robo and laid it away carefully for holidays j then she was dressed just like Sophia in a woolen petticoat uud apron, yet sho seemed a princess beside tho honest littlo peasant lass ; and you could have made nothing else of her, she was so pretty and delicute. The children both learned to love her after their own fashion. Otto considered that he owned her, and ho scolded her us ho did Sophia when she displeased him ; yet ho would not allow others to be rude to her, especially In the school, where all tho village children met together, 7b t wi'taW, THE MEDICINE THAT CURES Taltlmr into ennld.,rntl in tlift phnrtipf.fr nf Us voucher,, the history nf in circs nnd tlio lmmcnso Inci casing demand, VKdF.ri n mtiy bo ralrly entitled tho loading medicine ut tho tntc.
