THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, ELOOMSBUKG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA, Agricultural. BthaW ah Maniim: ron Whkat. Dur ing ft recent visit to Western Now York n number of farmers niked our opinion m to tho value of atriiw ns a covering for their wheat field tho coming winter. Tho Inter est which such ft question Implies ta gratify ing. Ithows thnt tho roor wheat crops of tbo past two or threo years lmvo taught far mers thnt something Is tho mutter, nnd If whent growing Is to ho continued some thing must bo dono to make better crop?. Stable manuro put over tho wheat In tho fall is known to bo ft vahmblo protector; but docs It savo tho crop chiefly as a mulch or from its manurial properties? It Is not easy to get stable manure! enough to cover tho lnrgo wheat fields which many farmers sow. and somo of tho best farmers draw their barnyard manuro on corn nnd potato ground In tho spring and have littlo lelt for ton tlrcsslne in tho fall. They, however have straw in plenty, and If it can bo jnad available fr Immediate use their fields can bo well and cheaply protected. Our own .observation anil experience shows that straw Is of littlo valuo for this purpo.'u. Whent is often winter-killed from oxposuro to bleak winds, nnd It seems ns If n covering oven of straw would not be bene ficial. Practically, however, it Is probablo Hint poverty of soil w tho true difliculty, Wo havo seen wheat fields exposed to th bleakest winds and tncHt severo freezing where the crop came out all right because tub soil was rich, while on poor soil In pro tcctcd situations tho wheat was an entire failuro, Tho nlant on noor soil docs not seem to havo much to llvo for, and gives up the ghost to Insects, cold weather and other evils about as readily as thoroughly His ' couraged men and women do when attacked by disease. Poor land is subject to many fatalities which crops on rich soil escape. AVheatwas mado to endure tho cold of winter, nnd when nroperlv crown it has means of protecting itself from its severity With plenty of appropriate food it will man nge to wrap itself with n mantle of its leaves nnd bravo tho severest storms ot winter, Wo havo repeatedly seen wheat on rich soi pass through tho winter successfully, win! on poor soil, with less exposure, it has been almost 'ruined by winter-killing. Commer cial fertilizers, drilled in with wheat, havo tho s:mo effect, whilo mere straw has not, Straw is not by any means a cheap ma nure. Its value for selling may bo low, but ovon then it is worth far more as feed or for bidding than as manuro in its uufermented stato. If it can bo sold at ten to Mtcen dollars a ton, a3 was dono in most of our large cities a,yeavar two ago, selling straw . i notTbad mode of disposing of it, provid ed better modes are purchased in its stead. Hut always save enough for bedding and as an absorbent of manures that would other wise be lost. Thus used, tho soil will in crease its fertility, so thnt very soon winter grain will bo well fed and strong enough to maintain its vitality without protection dur ine the severest winter. Moore's IluralA'ew Yorker. Educating Horses. Horses can be educated to tho extent of their understandings as well as children, and can bo as easily damaged or ruined by bad management. We believe that tho great difference found in horses as to vicious hab- ' its or reliability comes more from tho diff erent management of men than from vari i ance of natural disposition in tho animals. . Horses with high mettlo aro moro easily educated than those of less or dull spirits,, and aro moro susceptible to ill training, and consequently may bo as good or bad, accord ing to the education they receive. Horses with dull spirits aro not by any means proof against bad management, for in them may often bo found tho most provok ing obstinacy j vicious habits of different characters that render them almost entirely worthless. Could tho coming generations of horses in this country bo kept from their days of colt-hood to tbo ago of five years in , tho hands of good, careful managers, there would be seen a vast difference in the gen eral character of the noblo animals. If a colt is never allowed to get an ad vantage, it will never know that it posses ses a power that man cannot control j and if made familiar with strange objects, it will not he skittish and nervous. If a hotso is inado accustomed from his early days to havo objects hit him on, tho heels, back and hips, ho will pay no attention to the giving out of a harness or of a wagon running against him at any unexpected moment. We once saw an old lady drive a high spirited horse, attached to a carriage, down a Btecp hill, with no hold back straps upon the harncbs, and she assured us that there was no danger, for her son accustomed his horses to all kinds of usages and sights that commonly drive the animal into a frenzy of fear and excitement, , A gun may bo fired from tho back of a horse, an umbrella held over his head, a buffalo robo thrown over his neck, a rail road engine pass close by, his heels bumped with sticks, and the animal take it all as a natural condition of things, if only taught by careful management that he will not bo injured thereby. There is great need of im provement In tho management of this noblo animal ; less beating wanted and moro of education. How to TitiUT Oiiapk Vines. Cut out the dead bits, shorten back the long branch es to five orslx joints, moro or less, cutting i, some clean out altogether'when not needed to fill up gaps, then spread out tlio urancn Oi to your liking and tio with anything con venient and your work is dono. A word about renewing and changing vines is not, perhaps, out of placo here. To renew a vine that has become old and shows symptoms of decay, is simply to bend tho limbs down and bury thein a foot or so in tho ground, keeping them there by means of stout pegs or istones. New roots will bo pro duced, and your old vine will soon be young !.. . 1.... .. .!... tl lo lr,.rl,,r .,, ll,n Uglllli , UUb IVlll-ii (V w nil ,v.v. b'Ml v "v better way is to cliango it by grafting it with the desired kind-slmply done by cut ting the old vine off at the ground with a saw, iplitting tho crown In half and Insert- inir two crafts, ono on each side. These grafu must bo cut wedge Bhaped, with sharp knife, the outer edge somewhat the thickest, In order that tho barks fit neatly together, for ou this depends, to a great cx teut, the success of tho operation. When the grafts aro set, cover all up with ground, leaving only the top cyo of tho graft out of the ground. The operation Is so slinplo It can bo done by any one, man or woman This, like tho plan of changing other fruit trees, pears and apples for instance, Is inucn preferablo to grubbing up and planting young ones, as they come Into bearing In less than half the time tbo young tree comes Into bearing. But ono thing mustbe kept In mind In' regard to the grafting of tho grape vine, and that is it must always ue performed before tho vine begius to grow Iu spring, aud tho souner the better now, for tho grapevine wip starts curly, Humorous. A subscriber to n Southwestern newspa per died recently, leaving four years sub scription unpaid. Tho editor appeared nt tho grnvo nnd deposited In tho collin n palm leaf fan, n linen coat, nnd n thermometer. A II iby who kisses his mother nnd fights his father may bo said to bo partial to his ma nnd martini to h!s pa, Many a man who would roll up his eyes In horror nt tho idea of stealing a nickel, will swoop down on n silk umbrella worlh 10, nnd mircli oil with his lips moving peacefully as if in prayer. Somo robbers having broken Into n gen tleman's house, went to tjio bed of the ser vant and told htm if ho moved ho was n dead man. '"That's n falsehood," said he, For if I move, I'm sure I'm alive." A country paper, in speaking of tho street-organ playing ofn soldier, without arms, who worked tho crank witli his foot, happily says, "Ills playing was fur above the usual nvcrago j ho threw his bolo into it." It is B.iid that a hearty laugh Is a foo to dyspepsia so it is proposed to chnngo a well-known sentence thusly : "Head, Mark Twain, and inwardly digest." Hut suppose one doesn't want to "dyest so," how then? Thcro is n story of a western hunter who after he had for four days diligently follow ed tho trail of n grizzly, returned without tho beast. Uelng asked why lie had aban doned thochase, ho explained that "tho trial was getting too darned fresh.', They aro feeling that way in Washington. VhiladeU jihia Times. The married men of Urooklyn who como homo after midnight prop themselves against tho wall nnd warble a stave or two of "Hold tho Fort," under tho awful delusion thnt their wives will supposo they have been to a revival meeting. A son of Galen who was very angry when any joke was passed on a physician,once de fended himself from tho raillery by saying: "I defy any person whom I ever attended to accuse mo ofignoranco or neglect." "no' replied the wag for you know, doctor, dead men toll no tales 1" "No, sir," said a weary looking man on a street car to an individual by his side, "I wouldn't marry tho best woman nlivc. I'vo been a Hry goods clerk too long for that." "Somo infernal idiot has nut that ncn where I can't find it," growled Old Asperity tho other day, as ho rooted about tho desk. ''Ah, lira, yes; I thought so," ho continued in a lower key, as he hauled tho article from behind his ear. Mr. RusHn pitches into the voune ladv Sunday school teachers. "At present" he says, "you keep tho dancing to yourselves and teach your scholars tho catechism. Sup poso you wero to try ior a littlo while learn ing tho catechism yourselves, and teach tnem to dance." A-funny story is told by an exchanee. of two ermont farmers who nro not grangers. They induced their wives to join nnd report oeioro tuey would commit themselves. Now, when they will they cannot. Two black balls greet every application. Meanwhile tlio wives go regularly and triumphantly to every meeting ol tlio grange, and tho men stay at homo to mind tho babies. Professor II , of Yalo College, was passing out of the recitation room one dav. when an ambitious Freshman dropped slyly into his cap n pieco of paper on which he had legibly written tho word "monkey." Tickled with his joke, ho told his success to all-his student friends. At tho next recita tion tho bland Professor addressed his divis ion thus, in his sweetest tones : "Gentlemen, as I'was passing out of the room yesterday, ono of your number did mo the very high honor of leaving his card with me." "Billy, how did you loso your finger?" "Kasy enough," said Billy. "I suppose you did but how V "I guess you'd a lost yourn if it had been where mino was." "That don't answer my question." "Well, if you must know," said Billy. "I had to cut it off or steal tho trap." "Sympathy," says Johu Paul, "is some thing which I never withhold from thoo in trouble, whether they happen to bo frinds or not; there's nothing mean about me. I nnd, too, that ono can go around shedding sympathy on all sides, for weeks at a time, without spending a cent or being at much personal inconvenience." Somo weeks ago a Detroit wife disguised her chirography and wrote her husband a lovo letter under an assumed name. lie an swered it very promptly, and a correspon dence ensued, which lasted six weeks. Ho finally threatened to commit suicide in caso his unknown correspondent did not meet him, nnd the wife had a parlor seance and exhibited the letters. Tho attempts of tho husband to laugh, and declare that ho knew her handwriting all tho time, and wanted to sco liow far she would go, were among tho most lamcntablo failures of tho present sad year. Tho boy stood near n sunken shaft, nnd bitter tears ho shed; wo eyed tho young ster foro and aft hishairand nosewero red. Ho looked the picture of distress, tlio very typo of woe; we asked why his tinhap piness, his voico cnino tad and low j and while tho lad in tears relates tho story, wo are aweu. said no "i nought a pair Of skates nnd now it's gono and thawod." He Didn't Flinch, Ho came back to his mother looking very forlornly, with a big red swelling under his left cyo nnd four or hvo,handtulsof torn shirt boiling over his Drecchei band. "Why, where on earth have you oeen?" bIio asked, "Mo and Johnny's been playln. He played he was n.pjrato and I played I was a duke. Then he put on airs and I got mad, and" "Yes yes," interrupted his mother her eyes flash ing, "and you didn't flinch?" "No'm, but the pirate licked,' The Itev, Dr. Ritchie of Edinburgh, though n very clever man, once met with his mutch. When examining a student as to the classes he had attended, ho said, "And you attended the class for mathematics?" "Yes." "How many sides has a circle?" "Two," said the student. What a laugh in tho court the student's answer produced when he Bald, "An insido and an outsidol" Tho doctor next Inquired, "And you attend ed the moral philosophy class, aUo?" "Yes.', "Well, you would hear Ijrturcs on various subjects. Did you ever hear ono ou cause and effect?" "Yes." "Does an effect ever go before a cause?" "Yes." "dive mo an Instance." "A man wheeling a barrow." The doctor then sat bowu and proposed no moro questions. Groat Rotluotion ,in Price I Uroat Reduction in Prico Hrnnf Pod notion In Prion I Tln'nlr of it.
