Nova Scotia sends this little story: A farmer, passing a had piece of road, upset his load of potatoes. Angrily be declared lie would make tho Road Commission pay roundly for the damage.

Ah Moon, a San Francisco Chinaman, being on trial for murder, was told by his lawyer that the best defence would bo an alibi. The prisoner said that he could ar range readily for witnesec, and he did.

A New Yorker threw a mince pie at his wife and she got a divorce. A man who will wantonly squander a mince pie that way, when hundreds of New Yorkers arc in a starving condition, doesn't deserve to have a wife. Why didn't be throw the pie dish? A quarrel happened between an old gen tleman and his son, the former reproached the young man with his ingratitude. "I am under no obligation to you," said the youth ; "on the contrary, you have done me serious injury, for if you had never been born, IJshould now have been heir to my grandfather." In making up the yearly statement oft' , average American people this year, It look ed as though we were the thinnest, most bil ious, dyspeptiu people on the face of the globe, when the dottora came upon the tramps, and that rugged, healthy clam of the community at once brought the ttan dard of national health up to 32J per cent above that of any other nation. The Graphic alleges that the oysters in the'New York aquarium opeu their mouths at the approach of their keeper, and that they try to follow him about by a beries of ungainly leaps. If this doesn t start a clammy perspiration upon the regal brow of Truth, nothing will opeu her pores. During a recent examination of a class of Youngsters, in one of the Philadelphia oiehools, tho teacher asked: "What is a monarchy?" nud was immediately answer ed by a bright llttlo eight-year-old boy: "A country governed by a king." "Who, would rule If the king should diet" "Ihe queen," "And If the queen should die, who then would be ruler?" "The jack." Tho Loudon Mutical Hertf baa tho fol lowing: "A celebrated vocalist, whose de meanor and acting wero as awkward and ungainly us his voice was beautiful, said one day to Charles nan ulster : 'Do you kuow what made my voice fco melodious?

Wheu fully grown they will nntseru plo at swallowing a good sized snake. Tur keys will not bear confinement. Their hab itude Is tho free open air and sunny fields. Tho mother hen always 1'ceps her brood to gether with a soft, low, cooing sound which they early learn and follow. She generally seeks deep grass and grain fields, wherein the young can h'.do from tho attacks of overhanging hawks. A peculiar sound Irom tho parent hen causes every chick to squat nnd hide in the tall weeds nnd grass, They remain thus secreted until assured from her that all danger is over, when the bright little creatures come forth with a happy llutler of glad wing'.

Is the early part of the season v do not damage either grass or grain, I :h'r than treading It down; but later, vhen corn and buckwheat kernels have be 1 "nino tempting, I would not care to be an swerable for their depredations; still they ill not thrive without their run. If on no's own premises, the dainago is slight, if on a neighbor's a provocation to anger, the 'tetter way is to limit their range, if possible, and train them tocertaki bounds. We have ltcu observed that tho later broods, that come off about harvest time, thrive mush better than tho early hatched ; that is, they are more apt to live. One turkey hatched the last of May or first of Juuc,is worth two hatched in August; has more frame and muscle, aud makes altogether a finer bird. Why is it that the late hatched livo better than the early? Simply because the parent bird is in better sUte of cleanliness, and freed from vermin, and it is the presenco of vermin on the body that produces or aggra vates every diseat,e. The turkey hen sits over four weeks, Tho chick comes out in twenty-six days, but the mother's sedentary life is not then at an end, for the young must bo covered, aud she has had no oppor tunity for wallowing beforo commencing her first period of incubation, and thusriddiug her body ot the winter accumulation. These parasites leave the parent and crowd and breed on the young chicks. With the first brood this fomidable obstacle is to bo en countered. Later in tho season the turkey hen is rid of this scourge, and tho young do not have the parasites to confront the' weather is dry and warm, and tho earth has become so thoroughly heated that tho night ly roosting strikes them with no chill, Fro quently tho later broods require no feeding, as there is sufficient forage of tender herbage and insects for their supply, but our depend ence for largo turkeys (and.sizo is an im portant item)' must bo on tho early hatched. Frequently Juno is heralded by cold heat' ing rain sterols, followed by chilling east inds. All young chicks, and turkeys in particular, must be guarded against these vi cissitudes. The best way to do -this is to provide a building for their occupancy that can be warmed by means of a stove, as the spring chicks require a constant watch over them to enable them to pass safely through the gapes. Warm weather, high feed, and clean quarters will tide tbem over this terri ble scourge. At three weeks, if kept in good condition, they are beyoud danger; yet a close observer will perhaps note the heavy breathing and hoarse rattling in the throat which.always accompany the gapes, although the birdimay give no other indication of the presence of. the disease. As long as this slime is loose in the throat there is no dan ger, but a eudden'cold may tighten it, and then there is no help. While it is looso, and the bird is ttrong, a vigorous sneeze will re move the difficulty ; but when once weaken ed or reduced in strength, there is no hope. I believe, oi'lato years, all tho early broods of both chickens and turkeys are alllicted to greater or less degree, with thi.) most painful malady, for which there is preven' tion, but no cure. C. J., in Country Gen lltrnan. l'lant Karly l'oiatoes Oiilyv Prof, 'McAfee, of the Iowa Agricultural College, advises the planting of early varie ties of potatoes only, In order to cut off tho supply of food for the potato beetles late in the summer. This, we think, is an excellent suggestion, and for other reasons than those named by Vrof. McAfee. There are, at least two broods of this insect in a season through out the greater part of the Northern and Middle States, and in some favorable local! ties three. Now, if nono but the earliest varieties uri planted, tho tops will bo ripe by the time the first brood comes to maturi ty. Tho second brood, not finding its favor He ill abundance, a largo portion must per lab, for, say from tho first of August until the following spring is rather too long n time for the mature insect to live, especially If cut short of food. It is generally the second last brood that hibernates, passing through the winter in safety; but by cutting off the supply of food we may at least lessen the number which ate to pass off the follow' iugseasou. It is worth trying ; in fact, any thing which Is likely to lessen tho number of this great peat should receivo due attcn tion at this time, Hog Cholera. A Michigan farmer says: "I have nev er knowu of an instance of cholera among hogs that had clean quarters, and wero fed regularly, kept warm aud dry, although fed exclusively on corn, and if tbey had pure drink, I do not attribute the disease to any cause alone, but a combination of them. To put a hog in a cold, wet muddy place; ox poso it to hot days and chilly nights, allow it to )dck its food from the dirt, and drink from somo filthy pond or hole, Is enough to make u hog lck, and to iuvite every know dlseaso hog flesh is heir to," This is true and farmers overywhero will study their i terosU by keeping their awiuo In clean THE COLUMBIAN AND 1 , - : .
