Kalbtls and Fruit Trcrs.
Tojirovont young fruit trees from
being destroyed by rnbblts during tlio
winter, feed tlio rnbbils. Thcso miiumls
will never out tlio bark of trees if they
can get anything elao to live upon. In
tlio fall of 1878, writes n correspondent
of tho Country Gentleman, I noticed
that tlio rabbits wcro very plenty about
tho fields, and I became qiilto npprehen
sivo for tho safety of my young orchaid
of about ono hundred applo and pear
trees, tho most of which lmd boon set
out tho previous spring. When tho lirst
deep snow camo I put a littlo corn under
tho corn barn, which stood on posts in
ono corner of tho orchar.d This they
soon found, and numbers of them would
come there every night after their ra
tions, nnd as I continued to feed them,
I soon found that I had quito n family
of them on my hands. When wo want
ed a rabbit for a stow, I would set a box
trap baited with a small ear of corn, nnd
would bo pretty suro of ono of them in
tho morning. Wo nto about a dozen
and a half of them during tho winter,
and as thoy wcro well fed, thoso wo
caught towards spring wcro fat and in
excellent condition. Not ono of my
young fruit trees was harmed by tho
rabbits that winter.

1 ho weak points of a horso can bo
better discovered whilo standing than
whilo moving. If ho is sound he will
stand firmly and squarely on his limbs
without moving any of them, tho feet
planted firmly upon tho ground, with legs
plumb and naturally poised. If one foot
is tlirown lonvard with tlio too pointing
10 tno ground and tho heel raised, or if
the foot is lifted from tho ground and tho
weight taken from it, diseaso may be
suspected, or at least tenderness, which
is a precursor of disease. If the horse
stands with his feet spread apart, or
straddles with tho hind legs, thero is a
weakness in tho lions nnd the kidneys
aro apt to bo disordered. Heavy pulling
bends tho knees. Bluish or milky cast
uyes in norscs indicate moon blindness,
or something else. A bad tempered
horse keeps his ears tlirown back. A
kioking horso is apt to have scarred legs.
A stumbling horse has blemished knees.

Farm horses in the fall are often tin
gratefully neglected. Their hard toil in
helping with tho heavy work of the sea
son once over, when only odd jobs await
theru, it is too frequent a custom to dock
them of their grain and allow them to
shift for themselves on tho pastures,
often without needed shelter from tho
bleak wiud and early frosts of autumn
uichts. After feedincr awhile tli n nnnr
animals get chilled and run about in the
dark in searcli of warmth, which they
often find only at tho cost of a stumble

that injures or disfigures them for life.

rise up stiff, spiritless, uul not rarely
suffering a severe cold after their heated

well enough to let horses run in the pas

comfortably bedded and fed in the sta

Improved Grasses.
In many respects grass-culture has not
kept paco with Improvements m other
oranones. wo aro continually getting
iiuw jmiuip, now trees, new fruits, new
vegetaDies, new grains, but a new grass
is never thought of. Wo have tho same
orchard grass, tho same red-top, the same
iimotny, mat wo nau over a hundred
years ago; and so far as tho drift of
thought goes, we shall have tho same
grasses for a hundred years to come.
And yet thero is no reason that wo can
seo why thero should not be improved
grasses, as well as improvements in any
other thing; and there doubtless would
be if public attention was drawn to tho
matter as it should bo.
We have, to bo sure, during tho past
twenty years or so, been treated to Hun
garian grass or millet, a harsh, coarso
thing, of littlo merit except for tho very
heavy crops it produces; and Lucerno is
no better. There surely must bo others
which it would bo of advantage to in
troduce. Wo seo in foreign agricultural
journals that some attention is being
given to aspecies of grass called Tnssock
grass, from it growing in largo bunches,
and which, from its description, appears
to be closely allied to orchard grass. It
does not appear to bo considered very
hardy; but thero aro no doubt a number
of places on this continent whoro it
would find itself entirely at home. It is
said to grow five or six feet in height,
and to produce vegetation of great fine
ness of quality and exceedingly nutritious.
When once a field is set with it, it is
seldom killed out by other veeretation.
and goes on producing good crops for a
great many years, it appears to bo
hardy in Hungary, and if so it ought to
stand considerable frost. Wo wish all

A licadvlllo paper tells this story o
life in that reulon. which mav bo takei
with i urnln of salt: Ono of thoso cur
ions ami dangerous episodes that char
actcrizc tho miner's life in tho snow
mountains of Colorado was brought to
the attention of tho repoitcr yesterday,
Tom Vox nnd .Inn A nil nro two miner
working lar up on tho bleak, snow
slopes of Mount Elbcrt,near Twin Lakes,
i hoy sleep in a lent near the mouth o
Golden Lode, in which they were work,
ing all night, nnd went into tho tent for
tho purpose of going to sleep. Ono o
them got into bed, and, enveloping him
self with tho blanketSj was snug nnd com
fortnble, and drowsy in a moment, 'flu
other not in bo great a hurry, notioei:
that tho melting Bnow was dripping
through tho roof of tho tent nnd right
whoro ho hnd to sleep. He couldn
stand a wet couch,and,arousing his com
pauiou, asked him to get up so that the
bed might bo moved to a position where
tho melted snow would not touch it. His
sleepy partner growled out a "refusal
Tlicro was a hot reply, and in less time
than it takes to writo it tho two men
wcro engaged in n ilerco personal en
counter. They wcro both clad in their
night shirts alone, and a small tent
a limited spaco for two angry men to
fight each other in. They had hardly
clinched beioro ono carried tho other
through tho front flaps of tho tent,
Right here it is necessary to say that the
tent was pitched on tho tearfully steer
slopo of Mount Elbert, and there wasn 1
moro than two feet of level ground be
tween tho front of tho tent and tho pre.
cipitous slopo of tho niountnin. This
slopo was covered with four feet of so
snow, and it extended down for 2000
feet beforo thero was a resting place,
In
tho fierce fight between the two miner
thoy wcro carried down the dizzy slope.
and, with their hands upon each other
throats, they went whirling down tho
mountain like a pair of boulders. They
had gono but a short distance when an
ger vanished in tho presence of a possl
bio death, and each man turned his at
tention to tho paramount work of saving
his lite. Uownthey went along tho tear
ful slant of tho great mountain, and nt
each revolution they sunk in tho soft
snow, sometimes head first and somo
times feet first. Thoy were paralyzed
with fright and no sound escaped their
lip-. Tho further down they went, the
greater the momentum ot their bodies.
aud when about fiOO feet from the point
whero they started they bounded in tho
air nnd alighted in snow so deep that
thoy stuck fast. After arduous efforts
they managed to extricate themselves
and get back to their tent, bruised and
bleeding, and their quarrel healed. No
matter what tho future has in store for
these two men, they will never forget the
time when thov wcro whirlincr down the
snowy slopo of the continental 'divide of
North America, and n snow drift saved
them from landing 1500 feet belojv, in a
condition in which none but tho Coroner
and tho undertaker would feel any prac
tical interest in them. They aro the best
of friends now and will doubtless con
tinue so.
A Clever Burglar.
Iho oilier night two young clerks
were playing billiards in a cafo of tho
Houlevard St. Germain, Paris, and talked
freely of their concerns without heeding
a man wno seemed asleep at an adjoin
ing table. One ot them said to the
other:
"I have iust inherited S100.
"Oh! then we arc'going to have a iol
ly time of it."
".No, no! 1 will not touch one cent of
that money. It is still in mv lodmnmi
safely hid in a chest of drawers under
my shirts. lo-morrow lam going to
carry it to tlio stock broker and Imv
threes."
A few minutes afterward tho sleeping
man woke, rose, took his hat and went
out. An hour afterward the clerks paid
for what they had taken, took their hats
ono of them, ho who had inherited
5 100, found that his hat had been taken,
probably by the sleeper, and another left
in its place. As the hat left was just as
gooci as tno nat taken, and as tho former
fitted him otuto as well, ho boro tho ex
change philosophically and jogged home
lie had no sooner entered his lotltrincra
man no saw they had been entered with
laiso keys, his chest of drawers broken
open, and his four hundred dollars stolen
Ho did not sleep that night.
I ho hat left him did not altocrether
suit him, so ho went to his hatter to
chango it. His hatter told him that tho
evening before a man had como to tho
shop and had said that ho had inadvert
ently taken a gentleman's hat, and seeing
the latter s name inside, ho had called,
thinking tho hatter might bo able to
give him tho owners namo and address,
mat, no lnigiio restore tho hat occidental-
taken. Tho hatter iravo tho name and
address, i ho burglar secured four hun
drcd dollars by the information given.
mi.., i -i ... , . , e.
xiiu mirgiars nat was leit with tho
hatter, and a now hat selected. After
tho clerk left tho hatter took out tho
iniiig out of tho burglar's hat. and to his
surprise found under it a letter, bearing
an address. Ho read it. and found it
was from a burglar, promising aid in a
contemplated burglary which had been
planned by tho person to whom tho let
ters was addressed. Tho hatter took tho
lotter to tho polieo and told what had
occurred. Ueforo sunset both burglars
wero arrostcd.
Why tlio I'arson left Kentucky.
A good many years ago, when
tin plaeo in Texas was n very
a cer
tain plaeo in 1 exas was n very small
town, quite a number of prominent citi
zens went out on a limiting expedition.
Ono night, when thoy wero all gathered
around tho camp-fire, ono of tho party
suggested that each man should givo tho
time and reason for his leaving his native
State and coming to Texas, whereupon
each ono in turn told his experience.
Judge Islank hnd killed a man in self-
delense, in Arkansaw, Gen. Soandso,
had forged another man's signature to a
check, whilo another camo to Texas on
account of having two wives. Tho onlv
man who did not mako any disclosures
was a sanctinionioiis-looking old man.
although a professional gambler, was
usually called ''Parson."
"Well, Parson, why did von leave
Kentucky?"
"I don't care to sav nnvtlniiir about it.
Jlesidcs it was only o trille. Nono of you
would beliovo mo anyhow."
"(Jut with it! Uul you shoot anybody?
"No, gentlemen, I did not. Sinco vou
want to know so bad I'll tell you. I left
Kentucky because I did not build a
church."
Deep silence- foil on tho group. No
such oxouso for coming to Texas over
had been heard of beforo. Thero was
evidently an unexplained mystery nt the
bottom ot it. I ho "l'arson was allied
on to furnish moro light.
"Well, gentlemen, you seo n congre

to mo to build n church and I didn't
