Tlio Tump's Mistake.
One of our Danbury Inwyen was In Ms
iiflice Saturday remling the potttlcal nows
from Cincinnati, when n visitor entered,
The new comer wm a cadaverous person In
dilapidated attlro.
"Well, what do yon want?" Inquired the
legal gent, In a testy lone.
"I would like to borrow a quarter of you
to get something to eat," said the visitor, In
a sepulchral voice.
"1'vo got no money to throw nwny on
tramps."
"Tramps 1" exclaimed tha stranger, In
dignantly. 'I ain't no tramp. Perhaps
you do not kuorv who I am 1"
"Jfo, I don't, and I don't care."
j "You don't care, eh? Lot me tell you,
sir, ttiat tho party you address Is not tho
party you think you addrcis."
"AU I" said tho lawyer, derisively.
''No, sir," said tho stranger, "I am the
man," he added, drawing himself up with
Impressive dignity, "who first nominated
IJayes for tho Presidency."
Tho words were scarcely out of his mouth
when be became aware of being seized by
the collar, turned around and propelled out
of the room by vigorous kicks, while an in
dignant voico was shouting in his car :
"Oh, you are the scoundrel that did tho
Infamous act, are you? Take that, and that,
and that?"
Picking himself up at the foot of the
stairs, tho stranger was beard to gloomily
ipMlixjuizo :
' "Why, they told mo that old rooster was
x rod-hot Republican, the cussed liars."
How .Mr. Lincoln Forgave Illiu.
An editor of a weekly paper published in
a little village In Missouri, called at the
White House, and was admitted to Mr.
Lincoln's presence. lie told Mr. Lincoln
that he was the man who first suggested his
namo for the Presidency, aud pulling from
bis pocket an old, defaced copy of his paper,
exhibited an item on tho subject. "Do you
really think," said Mr. Lincoln, "that an
nouncement was tho cause of my nomina
tion?" "Certainly," said the editor, "tho
suggestion was so opportune that it was at
onco taken up by the other papers, and tho
result was your nomination."
"Ah, well," said Mr. Lincoln Tith a sigh,
and assuming a rather gloomy countenance,
'I am glad to see you nud know this, but
you will have to excuse me ; I am just go
ing over to the War Department to see Mr.
Stanton." "Well," said tho editor, "I will
walk over with you." Tho President with
the apt good nature so characteristic .of him
took up his bat and said, "come along 1"
When they reached the door of the Sec
retary's office, Mr. Lincoln turned to his
companion and said: "I shall have to see
Mr. Stanton alone, and you must excue
me," and taking him by the baud he con
tinued "Good-bye I hope you will feel
perfectly easy about having nominated me;
don't be troubled about it; I forgive you."
Two Stories.
A MassachussetU gentleman, just return
ed from over the Canadian border, tells us
these stories : He was in the hotel general
accommodation room when two veterans of
the (hotel) bar, laying schemes for a drink,
began to tell stories to each other for his
benefit. "These are awful hard times,"
said one. "I never saw such times before
except when I was in Ohio, an' then 1 was
bard put to't to git along. othin' to do
I had a yoke of steers, but they wan'tearnin'
nothin'. But I lived right on the road tho
Western emigrants went over every day
So I dug a hole in that road at tho foot o'
the hill, near my house, turned a livin'

Agricultural.
Turning Cows to Pasture.
There Is n great difference of opinion
among dairymen In regard to the time when
cows should be turned out to grass. Many
contend that all kinds of stock should be kept
olfpasturo grounds (luring spring until there
Is a good growth of grass. In other words,
tho hcrbago must havo obtained such a
start that tho stock will not bo able to eat
It down short during tho season, and thus
they believe a supply Is more fully insur-
cd.
Annthnr nl nn nrnpllneil hv minv Is to weed Tonio una sinnunmo mis aro we onir meai
Atiomer pian, practised Dy many, is 10 .,.,,..,.,.,. onnrato in tun war. it is obvious ther
let stock havo tho full run of pastures as
soon as me snow is on mo grouna, allowing
It to pick on the old grass nud eat off the
early vegetation as soon as It iprings up.
The chief reason urged for this latter course
is, that tho chnngo from hay to grass in
feeding should bo as gradual as possible, in
order that stock may be kept In good health;
Hint If cows In spring are turned suddenly
from dry lood upon luxuriant pasturage,
tho change Is very liable to produce serious
troubles execssivo scouring blunting and
other disorders that Impair health, often for
n considerable length of time, and even if
they do not lead to the total loss of tho ani
mal, they cause the loss of her milk for lon
ger or shorter periods.
Now, a middlo courso between tho two
plans named, wo think, is to be preferred,
nnd will glvo tho best results. In tho first
place, It may bo remarked, pasture lands
will bo Injured In productiveness by allow
ing etock to roam over the fields early In
spring beforo tho ground is settled, and
while it is soft aud easily trodden up. Tho
"poaching of tho land" by the frequent
tread of cattlo destroys the grass in places,
while the surface is rendered uneven or fill
oil with hnliq mail hv (Tin (set nf ttin littln

Airain. when the frost is cominz out of tho

ofteu rendered so loose in tex
ture that the roots ot grasses are easily pull
ed out, and cows feeding on the old herbago
not unfregaently injure the turf by pulling
up grass by the roots. It will be advlsablo
then, not to turn stock upon pasture until
the ground is fully settled, and is uot In con
dition to be Injured by the feet of cattle.
Nothing is gained by allowing pastures to
get a tall growth of gross before turning tho
stock upon them, because they tramp the
herbage down in places, and, by neglecting
to feed other portions down, it soon becomes
hard and woody and will not bo eaten.
Grass is sweetest and gives the best re
sults in milk when it is eaten oil at regular
Intervals, nnd is not allowed to get a large
growth. In this way tho product is greater
whilo the exhaustion to the soil is less than
it is where tufts of grass aro allowed to ma
ture and go to seed. Cows ought not to be
turned at once from hay to pasture, since a
sudden change of this kind will be apt to ef
fect their health. A better way is to give
them the run of pastures for an hour or two
at first, and so allow them gradually, from I
day to uay. to become accustomed to tne I
rhnnirn nf TnnH .ml tW hnnlH t, fprt from
time to time with hay after they have been
turned to posture altogether. Cons will
frequently cat greedily of hay when they
have been out to pasture for a considerable
length of time, and rations of hay will often
be found useful in correcting a tendency to
looseness of tho bowels or scouring.
Some dairymen are in the habit of giving
salt to animals at certain intervals of time,
but the better way la to keep it constantly
before them or within their reach, so they
can take it daily or at will. Nature regu
lates the quantity of salt needed much bet
ter than it can bo done by portioning it out
at intervals, and if the animal always has it
within reach there is no danger of over feed-
inrr. and the milk will show less variation in
character. An Important point to be ob
served in the management of milk stock is I
to keep them in a healthy, thrifty condition

Effects of Cold Storms on Ponltry.
Each season of the year brings Its special
work and care, demanding the special at.
tention of the keepers of poultry. Ei'
ceptlng the first bleak autumn storms, no
period of the year is so trying to the consti
tution of fowls as cold, spring rain storms
Birds that have stood the severity of winter
without any apparent signs of disease, often
succumb to the effects of a chilly rain storm.
The germs of disease, however, are some
times contracted aunng connnement in
winter, and the sudden change of the weath
er, experienced during a cold rain, will de
velop the malady, which is likely to become
contagious. Fowls that have been highly
fed and kept warm to induce laying, will
like a forced plant, bo too tender to stand
neglect during the early drenching rains
that penetrate to their very skins.
Tiie danger need not be feared, however,
by those who will take a little extra care of
their stock during such weather. An soon
as the earth Boftcns under the first mild
breath of Spring, fowls are all awake to the
prospect of getting worms and other Insects
from the ground. They will be then be off,
prowling about before it is even light enough
to see their prey, but as they evidently
know that the early bird catches tho worm,
are on the ground betimes. Perhaps the
next day there is a severe change In the
weather, with sleet or rain, and you will see
tbe birds hunting about, in hopes of finding
insects, till they get Boaking wet through
their feathers, and If not well cared for this
often proves fatal.
Most fanciers have noticed that a cold
storm frequently stops bens from laying for
a week. Now, this delay and risk of Bick
ness may often be prevented by giving them
a liberal mess of soft, warm food, with a lit
tie cayenne pepper in It. To this should be
added a generous amount of animal food,
either scraps or haslets, to take the place of
the supply of worms, which Is stopped when
the fowls cannot get out. With this little
extra care hens will often keep on laying,
retain perfect health and be profitable to
tlielr keepers. Jlennj Jlalet in Rural Kew
