There hail been one or two hard frosts, and the top of the gr.o- w -is get ting brown and shrunken. 'he leaves were growing dry and rustling, -o that the clear, deep blue of the -ky showed through their yellow and brown foli age. And day by dav the grass grew dryer and the trees thinner. The bright blue lakes and sloughs, with their tYinge of tall reed- and grasses, were occupied bv the ducks that woie dock ing together before their migration. And In various direction- the glow by night and smoke by day told that the prairies were burning. So one morn ing John voked up Buck and lick to plow some furrows for a tire-break round the homo-lead. His house was within a few roils of a little lake; so he commenced his furrows at the lake on one able of the house aud run them to a slough that was near, aud then to some breaking that he had, and then down to the lake again on the other side, so making a line all around the house and stable and stacks of hay that he had. First two furrows, then skim ping about a rod, and then a couple of more; and he meant to burn the grass between them himself, and so make an impassable tire-break around his house, and. Indeed pretty much all he pog.-cs.-ed was within that circle of furrows. It was too late to burn the •lay of the plowing; and the next day there was no wind and the gra.-s wouldn't burn; and the next day John had an errand to the nearest neighbor's three miles off. and, though there wa souie wind and some smoke in the air. yet there did not seem to be any lire "near; and he thought at any rate the furrows would probably turn the flames, if they should cotne. And he would not be gone very long, so he went. His errand to the neighbor's took hiui longer than he expected, as is apt to be the case; and w hen he started back the wind was harder and the smoke thicker than when he started. So he looked somewhat anxiously to ward home, and kept the horse going at a good (Mice, for he thought that Mary might 1* frightened, though he didn't feci as thdugh such a thing could happen as the burning of their snug little home. But w hen he got within a mile of It, and came around a little hill, he started with almost a cry, for there wa- the dense rolling smoke cloud. that half concealed the leaping flame- below it, rushing straight on to ward his homo, and nearer to it than he was, too. He struck the horse once; but there was no need of a second blow, for lie knew the prairie fire too, and home had always meant shelter and safety to Hint. He would do his best to reach it now. :Se the horse ran, and .lohn steadied himself with one hand on the dash board and watched. The fire ran in lines—points of fire running ahead for some distance, with unburned spaces between. John watched it. In the long grass between the bills it crackled aTnl roared and leaped ahead with fear ful fury, while where the grass was thin or more sheltered from the wind it came much slower. Now ,t would run quickly up the side of some little knoll; while going down the s|oje it would almost stop, and sometimes go out and leave unburned pl-u.es. Half a mile from home, and a line of fire reached the trail. He drove around it and kept ou. A little further and the trail crossed a cooley, where the grass was high. The fire got then* just ahead of him; but the trail checked it an instant, so he turned short for a couple of rods anil ran across ahead of it. A quarter of a mile more and the fire was up to the trail all along, and he had to abandon it. The fire how ever, bad only crossed the trail in a few places yet. and he was gettiug nearly home. Then he ran through one line of fire, where the grass was light, hop ing that bevond it he should find an open tract Lome. But a moment showed him that the slough between liiin and the house had caught, and that he was cut off from going on in that way. How should he turn ? To the right, and he must run a line of fire, which perhaps he could do, to the ground that had been burned over. But then he could not get to the house till the fire had passed it, and Mary there alone. He could not do that. To tlie left. Could the horse lieat the flames and run across ahead of them before they reached the lake, and so cut hiin off in that direc tion? He would try it. He turned short again. The horse was excited, but manageable. The smoke and heat were terrible; but he kept as near the line of leaping flames as possible. When he got opposite tlie end of the line he could just see through the smoke the tree* on the lake shore, three or four rods off. If the fire was running ahead here in a narrow line, he could cross before it; it it was com ing with a broad sweep, he couldn't. He could not see or tell. Another in stant and he turned again. Light be fore the fire now. right into the smoke. And then Mary saw them come spring ing out on the other side. A half minute more would have been too late, for the fire hail reached the lake. The house was standing yet, for the fire bad lieen checked a little by tlie furrows and hail burned around ou each side, while it stopped in front. But the flames were crossing the break, bad crossed it in several places, and were coming on. That was evident. Was there any chance of making a successful fight against them? On three sides was the lira coming ou in front, eating in slowly at the sides and a strong wind to carry sparks and srnoke and heat. But then tlie house was of logs with a sod roof, and would not easily catch ; the grass around it was thin or worn en tirely away; the stable was behind the house; and there was tiie lake as a last resort tor their lives. Kacb took a gunny-bag and a pail of water, and then waited a little. .Some stacks a few rods away hail just caught; but it was no use to meet the fire till it came up nearly to the house. Then they fought it—first here, then there. While they worked at one point It crept up to the very sill at another, and where it seeined to lie put out it would start up afresh. But in five minutes they stopped to take breath, and looking around, saw that the tire had ail swept past, leaving the black burned prairie and poor Scorched trees behind, and to them their house and stable and one small suck of hay. But what they had lost did not seem much to them just then; they were so glad lor what they had saved. Joe's Heavy t'afrti. The stream that Daniel Webster so well loved was famous for trout, and he was famous for catching them. Often he would sit for hours on a mosscovered stone in a retired nook—his line dang ling in and above the water, but never a bite; and, if there had been, the fish was safe, lor he was entirely uncon scious of all around and about him. One warm and sultry morning in July, while thus absorbed, he was aroused by hearing over the stream : "Hullo, there! hullo, I say! How are ye? Nice morning this? Got any fish? have any bites? How d'ye get over there? I've been fishing two hours; nary bite, I see you have long boots on; what'U you take to carry me over? Don't want to get my feet wet. I'll pay you well; what'll you take." Here he paused long enough for Mr. Webster, who had all this time been surveying the speaker (a slight-built dandifleuyouth), to ask: "What will you glwf" "Well, a quarter; thai'* 'nough, ain't it?" "Well, yes; I suppose It Is." So, quietly laying down his rod, he took his way to our Boston boy, Joe p., who, hy the way; was as good a fellow as ever sold tape; he was now on a three days' furlough, and houml to | crowd all the tl-hing, -eM-tiathlug and | sight-seeing seasons into the allotted I three days time, and one was rapidly I passing away. Mr. Webster seated hitti . self on thelutnk; Joe mounted his I shoulders, and, like t'asar, whom fas | sins from the raging Tiber bore, so Joe j upon the gtsi-like shoulders safely i crossed thestreain. The quarter quickly changed hands, Mr. Mebster quietly settled into his accustomed s>at, while Joe, on further pleasure hem, hastened up the stream. Tired and hungry, lie returned rather late for dinner, and passed into lite dining-hall, w here the guests were engaged in lite last act of the drama. Our Itoatonian, however, fell-to with an apjetite sharpened by Ills morning i exercise, and with a full determination to make up with *|MMI what he liad lost j iit time. S> Intent upon his own affair* ■ was he that he took no notice of those ; around the table, until some one re quested Mr. Webster to relate his morn ing adventures. joe looked up, and following witli his own the direction of all other eyes, he beheld Ids morning .tineas. Turn ing to his nearest neigliUir, tie asked: '• \\ ho is that I" "That! why that's lUniel Webster." He found no further use for his knife anil fork, and was silently leaving the table, w belt Mr. Webster now recog nised him; with a look or a nod (Joe j could ne\er tell which\ he detained him and requested him to take w inc. Joe look the wine with a trembling baud, and, with a look of earnest en j treaty, begged Mr. Webster not to re late the circumstance w hlch occurred | In the mortiiiig. Mr. Webster replied: "You should not be ashamed of the adventure, there Is no young men In the country, however lofty his aapira tious, that w ill be likely to attain the position you this morning occupied." Joe left the table and the hou-e, and on the tlr>t train left town, satisfied he had doue enough for one season. In ilie evening Mr. Webster related the whole nti'air to the assembled guests, and this day Joe enjoys the soubriquet of "Pan." I.row Hi o ■ilit.ni l.Uhi. The presence of su-oug ltyglit In the early stages of growth soeius to have a retarding intluencr UJIOII some plants. I have known instances where the lily of the valley, when forced in pots—es pecially iui|H>rted clumps—positively refused to grow under strong Sight lu a warm house, yet when moved n> a dark mushroom-house, or covered with uioss or litter, to exclude light, the buds started directly. I'trlgtni *y*-cW>ili, lilac* and many other deciduous plants and shrubs w ill break more rapidly in the dark than whan exposed to strong light. 1 once saw an experiment tried in a house containing young pot vines. They were exceedingly sluggish in starling and the produce was wanted early; and, alter twisting the canes with a view ot liberating the sap, till the tis sues fairly cracked, without producing auy effect, the house was covered with mats for a week, night and day, whilst at the same time the requisite tempera ture, with pleutv of moisture, was kept up. The upshot was they broke strongly and regularly and carried a good crop. Of course, where anything is covered up in this way to exjiedite growth, w hen me buds are pushing and the sap tairly in circulation the covering must tie removed and light admitted; choosing a dull day. If possible, for uncovering; as. although growth or elongation in all plants under natural or artificial condi tions takes place mostly in the night,or, at least, during that period of the *24 hours w hen the sun is absent, still with out its consolidating and maturing In fluence such growth or elongation would be useless for producing fruit, or in most cases flowers either; but as re gards the latter, there may be a few ex ceptious, one illustration of which may be furnished by the plan now commonly adopted of forcing lilacs in the dark for the purpose of obtaining pure white flowers. Any one accustomed to note the changes that take place in Spring must often have beeu struck by the effect produced by two or three dull warm days, when accompanied, as they ofteu are at tiiat period, by compara tively warm nights. There is something almost magical in the rapid unfolding of the leaves, which Is much more noticeable than in bright sunny weather, as such days are often followed by cold, frosty nights, which chill the sap and stop growth. In seeuriug the rapid germination of seeds when sowu in pots |or paus under glass, it is a common practice to place a layer of moss over tiie surface of the soil after the Metis are sow n, auu this has been found materially to hasten their growth, in tiie same way covering radishes and ' other early crops in tiie open air with straw or mat* to exclude light aiul se cure an even stale of moisture and temperature has an im|>ortant influence in the early germination of the seeds. Some may* say that the even state of moisture has as much to do with it as the exclusion of light; but, whilst that even state of moisture cannot easily be secured without excluding light, 1 be lieve, judging from my own observa- I lions and experiments, tiiat its exclusion, ! as far as germination Is concerned, is most important.— lnet indication of its thrift, its prodigious vitality, according to iny diagnosis of the case; and I think you will agree with me. The condition of affairs is this: Vast numbers of men are out of em ployment. They are consuming and not producing. They desire work, but there is no work "for them. Every branch of industry is full, and over flowing. There is a glut of everv pro duct, waiting to be consumed. Exces sive accumulation had been growing for years, until It culminated in the fall of liiTd. Hiuce then labor has been reduced to the gauge of necessity, over production no longer goes on, and inanv thousand men are now without work. Their work is not needed, hut they need work, for they need wages to obtain tin; necessaries of life. Everything prod need is produced in abundance by the workers now employed; and the accumulation of an immense over pro duction continues on hand. What is the cause of this apparent evil? Labor• taring invenUndlng upon the returns of a single crop, w hlch may have fallen short or failed altogether; yet the matter ap|eara to need urging. It la not always convenient to practice a system of divtaiou. An orchardlm or small fruit raiser cannot well attempt at (he same time to raise wheal or to f;rase; and the situntlon which enables ilni to successfully cult I vale fruit and market vegetables would hardly lie suited to tiie more extended o|teratloiis of grain grawing. Our Oregon Irieuds who cultivate crantierry marshes can not alo lie general farmers, and those w ho are most successful in raising hops tobacco and gra|es, are those who de vote their energies exclusively to the one (leflnlte purpoae. W lieu It hap|>eiis to lie a good year for a iiartlciiUr crop, tiiat is, a year of good yield and alo also strong demand, the s|iociallst profits largely ; hut a- It more often hap|ietiH souietiilug adverse turns up, and the general farmer has the best of it. In t aliforttla farms are generally much larger, a yet, than the Kastern Slates, and each farmer is more dece dent on his individual resources. No much the greater, then is the necessity for a division in culture. So far as practicable, every farmer should be per fectly indc|iemlciit of outside aid. For a farmer to buy fresh vegetables, fruits eggs, etc., which lie could as well raise himself, simply argues aw ant of thrift. The advantages of a diversity of pro ducts have thus been summed up: I'he general system enables the farmer to more economically make use of hUowu or hired labor—work can lie bettor dis tributed throughout the year. It is, as a rule, better adapted to retaining or iucrea-ing (tie fertility of the soil, and It secures the farmer trom the evils fol lowing the fluctuation- in price in all *|iecialtie*. To go into detail would call for a much longer article than we have room for. Hut it is at least worth w bile to repeat that every farmer should have his own vegetable garden. DRESSED WUUHT or Hons. —Farmer* who have hail but little experience in feeding animal* for the market, are often disappointed because their lieef ami |K>rk ilo not weigh as much as they thought it would. They are likely to overlook certain poiuta, which ought U> be taken into account when estima ting the dressed weight of animal*. 1. Age— An old animal will not dre** a* much in proportion to lis look* a* a young and growing oue. 2. Fames*—A creature which i* fat will weigh a great deal more than one equally a* large, but which has not been well fattened. 3. G rain fed—An animal which ha* had twenty or thirty bushels of ineal w ill dress much heavier than one which was in equally good order w hen tlie fattening was commenced, and which may look equally well when finished, but which ha* only been fed on half as much tucal. 4. How long fed grain—A creature w hlch ha* been mealed lor five or six months will weigh more than one which had ahout the same quantity of meal, but w ha* been fed only about half a* long, lit all caae* liberal and long continued feeding i essential to the attainment of any great success in fattening animals of any kind. THE London Hunleiurt' Vh roHiciV de scribe* a method of raising tomatoes within doors which it says ha* been successful, and i* worthy of general adoption. The seed is sown about Christmas, and by the first week in March the plants are set out against the wall of some of tlie lean-to-vineries, in a good compost, with ample root-room. Here they make a rapid and vigorous grow th, and in the course of the season attain to a height of from ten to twelve feet, and produce successive crop* of fruit with great profusion until jiast Christmas, in thts manner early and late tomatoes are obtained from the same plant*. As a matter of course, the plant* can scarcely IK* kept too moist, and a good dressing of crushed bones Is occasionally given. The imr der in which tomatoes are planted is only about fifteen inches in width. The plant* must lie well fed, but the wonderful croj they bear is the lest testimony to the advantage id a iiU-rai treatment. The weight of fruit ob tained from one plant in a season is something remarkable, and many plants attain a great si/c. CiiKKJtv Titan*.—These should never be highly manured. Singular a- It may seeut, better results have been obtained by growing cherry trees In grass than by cultivating them a.- highly a- pears. Kxjierienced fruit-growers in IMaware who once began a system of manuring and treatment of cherry trees, found after an experience of a few years, that the bark would burst, gum would ooae out, and many portions of the tree* show an unhealthy condition. The growers immediately discontinued high teeding, and seeded the land to grass. The trees recovered their health, and have boru beautifully since the system of grass culture began. It Is the only fruit tree of ail varieties which we can safely recommend to be treated In this way. A I>elaware friend says bis row of cherry trees, growing in grans along the fences, are the picture of health and luxuriance; while in previous years, with orchard culture, he could never make them successful. FLAT HEAD APPLE TREE BORER.— I'rof. Klley, of Marvland, say* that as a preventive against the insect's attacks there is nothing belter than coating the trunks and larger llinbs with soap, at least twice a year—once toward the end of May, and again in July or August. The soap is not only obnoxious to the beetle but tends to keep the bark clean and smooth, so as offer no atlraetion to the female; and it is, withal, beneficial to the tfee. Mr. Henry Shaw, who ha* a good deal of trouble from the work of this borer on the young trees, in Tower Grove I'ark, in St. Louis, has finally painted them with a mixture of soap, lime and a small pro)>ortioii of I'aris green. The green might, perhaps, be dispensed with, but the lime give* con sistency to tlie soap, and In many of the trees thus treated the larva* have actually worked their way out, only to fall to the ground and perish. FLIES IN STABLES.— Mr. Met*hi calls attention to the system of darkening cow stable* by banging old t-auva* over the openings, adopted by tlie late Mr. Hudson of Castle Acre, to keep out tlie flies. He says that on a visit there, he was "amused and Instructed by seeing the well-fattened cattle get rid of their tormentors by passing between IHJll dent canvas curtains, which admitted them and closed after them, rendering tlie sheil dark and fly less. Another friend who iiad many cow* in a long slieil, having its ridge louvre-boarded throughout its whole length, and divi ded by a |K*ndeut board on Watson's principle, excluded light except from these opening in the roof; not a single cow's tail was in motion, for tlie flies would not descend into the darkness." A SHEEP'S TEETH 1 often hear per son* disputing the ag<- of sheep, to my surprise, he it said. For them to tell the age of a sheep nothing Is easier. A sheep's front teeth the tlrst year are eight in nunilier, appearing all'of a size. Second year the two iiiiihlle ones are shed out and replaced by two much longer than the others. Third year two very small ones HpjK-ar—one on either side of the eight. At the end of the fourth there are six large teeth. Fifth year all the front teeth are large. Sixth year all begin to show wear—not till then.— Cor. E/jchatuje. THK cause of slobbering in horses, like that of milk sickness, seems to !>e ascribed by many to eating clover; but to my mind, and that by practical test, it is quite different. If anyone will go when the dew is on the grass and gather a peculiar woven spider-web, and take a small quantity and swallow it, he will feel a prickly sensation on the glands of the throat, and for a time will slobber the same as a horse. The spider is small and red.— Country Gentleman.

Alleyne, that well known chemist aud metallurgist. With a modification of the llecqueret ttilw, and iu an atmosphere which will not supnort combustion, be lirst observed the line given in the spectrum by a tn>- dv containing a known quantity of tiiihorus, and then substituted the tHHIy containing theutiknown quantity of phosphorus to le determined. The phosphorus lines are just blotted out by intriHluring hydrogen Into the tube, and re-stored by replacing a motion ot the hydrogen by a measured quantity of car IRIDIC acid. The quantity of pbosiihorua is, says Mr. Alleyne, in versely as the quantity of gas used, aud be can investigate in three min utes quantities under 0.500 down to 0.000 |H-r cent, or less, with accuracy ; above 0.500 requires further investiga tion, owing to the grrat power of the phosphorus lines. It is asserted that tor the determination of small uaati ties of phosphorus in iron or steei this newly-discovered method must prove of peculiar practical value, and may, in lact, la- regaided as laying the founda tion of quantitative spectrum analysis generally. .1 t'rrful Invention for ll'nireri. — Chamber*' Journal ha* u brief imtouiil of Marker'# patent self-acting puochiiiK machine for repeating Jacquard card*.
