.The word "pamphlet" is derived from
the name of a Greek authoress, Pamphy
lia. who compiled a history of the world
into thirty-fiv,e little books:. "Punch and
Judy " is a contraction from Pontius and
Judas. It lira relic of an old "miracle
play," in which the actors were Pontius
Pilate and Aides Iscariot. "Bigot" is
from - Visigoths, in which the fie* and.
lutolerint Arianism of the Visigeth con
queror of Spain hail been banded down to
infamy. " . Humbug is frt:m HiMburg ;
"a piece of Hamburg 'news" was in Ger
"many a proverbial expression for fabse'po-.
litical rumors. "Gauze" derlves its
nime from Gaza, where it was first made.
"Tabby cat" is all unconscious that her
name is: derived from Atab, a famous
street in Bagdad inhabited by the manu
facturers of Baer' stuffs called atabi; or
taffety, the wavy markings - of the water
ed silks resembling pussy's coat. - " Old
' Scratch" is - the demon Skratti, who still
snrvives in the superstitions of Northern
Europe. "Old Nick " . is none other than
the dangerous water demon of
Scandinavian legend. The lemon takci
its uame from the city of Lima.
A cLEBGT? lAN in a little town vp n r R .
Rochester has recently had an experience R.
that reminded him of John Gilpin. He
lta retired from active pulpit duty on ac
count of advanced age, but was invited to
s ir
conduct a fnneral. He asked the live' -
man for a quiet horse, and was given ne
_:comparatively as venerable as him ', a
sober-looking beast that would i 'em
. 'hardly capable of doing anythiuf; like
- liveliness, 'and well adapted in appearance
to carry a ridei in a funeral procession.
The services were held at the house, then
the processiotikstarted for the grave yard;
the parson was to ride at the head,. but
started at the rear, and in order to*hurry
up and get to his prOper position, 'pulled
the reins .tight. • He didn't know that
this , horse had been trained 'to run.
like a streak of lightning when the reins
new, pulled tight. The venerable animal
shot Past the carriage and hearse like -a
railroad train passing a canal Boat. The
parson pulled harder, this time to check
him, but the hoise went faster, and was
soon out of sight in a cloud of dust. Ev-•
eiybody felt awfully mad and 'cut rui .
•
about it except the corpse.
A 000n,t pious old citizen of Bedford
was peaceably - walking along to church
last Sunday morning, when he ca e upon

gently remarked the old &Mein n, "do
r.
you know where - little boys go!- o who
- desecrate the Sabbath ?" The s all boy
inquired - : ' To jail?" "No, my son; to
p. worse place"than There was no
longer a look of inquiry in that hoy's face,
•• but he answered with the assitrance of

The hone is, and' will remain in
this country, the main source of pow
er on the: farm. In one parts of
Enropenteam power Mused on . a few
large estates, but the horse, after all,
is the main dependence, there as welt
as here, :i This noble animal has been
the servant and the friend of man
from a period : beyond the records of
• history. In peace and in war he has
alike been; serviceable and, indeed,
indiapensable to the human race.
His intelligence's s greater, and. his
nature higher than any other species
of the brute
.creation.: Under vary
ingi, conditions of treatment and care,'
he is found in various
.. .types and
forms, adapted to every rise in which
his services are required; from the
fleet Arabian, and the English -thor
oughbred, to the immense rercheton
and Clydesdale. These diverse types
and forms are the result of bleeding
and management, and demonstrates
what may •be done by systematic,
careful breeding and management.
The mass of farmers in this coun
try have hitherto pursuca,- at best, a
wretched perlicy in horse, stock ; or
perhaps, it would be nearer the truth
to say that they have followed no
policy at all, but adopted a haphaz
ard, hit or miss, course in breeding
with results which might have been
foreseen. A want of judgment and
discretion in coupling sire and: darn
has left a stock of nondescripts of
'althost kvery form and disposition.
It is bdi proper to spy, however, thrq
a marked improveinent herein has
been goimon within a :few years in
the West,'(and it is this portion df
the county. yto which these remarks
specially irp ly). In the early days
i p
in this - region the pioneers could use
only such sires of horse stock as
were within their reach, and the sons
of these men followed in their foot
steps until within a cornparatively
receut period. ' With such limited
opportunities, of course, there could

inquiry for horse stock in towns and
cities is rapidly increasing. Driving
horses, for carriages and buggies,
fleet roadsters and fine steppers are
in demand, as are also heavy horses
of great strength izul good action.
And this demand must alwavg exist.
The services of . this useful animal
are ever in demand and ever will be,
and its magnitude gives this branch
of:s.tock raising a significance, which,
in its way, is as important as any
other. We must have horses—horses
for a. variety of uses, requiringdiffer
entAypAs and styles. We must raise
thoroughbreds—the blood horse Vro

breeds—and the horse for general
purposes; we must have light har

ier. siy•lish horses for carriages; we
ought . toraise and use More sad( : lle

of horses can be ptoduced of lexcel

upon foreign !countries, because al.
reildy men of foresight; enterprise
and means have imported and reared
horses to breed 'from in laite num
bers. To these horses and 41eir pro
-geny we may look for .a *TM im
provement of the horse';Uiekpf the

But in this, as in every otherbrauch

Poultry.
Ground bone or bonemeal fs an in
&,rredkent whose value as a mixture in
poultry feed has no equal for its
cost. The. ditli;rent moiles in whi. h
this article is put t p nowadays, for
ordinary sales, each have their poilAS
of commedation. And when the ar
ticle is, unadulterated it\ is intrinsi
cally more valuable for chickens or
fowls than any other substance offer
ed ikt our markets fdr
Ground bone is sold at a; p4c4e. thtil
renders- it a, cheap commbdity, and
fowls are very fond of it.: • Bonemeal
-is finer grqund, and it may be mixed
with corn or wheatmeal. steamed or
scalded, to great, adv.antage fo . r
young.chickens. For laying hens it,
its, an admirable stimulant, and those
who have not used it will very quick
ly discover the-difference -in the pro
duction of eggs by giving it a trial.
It is - surprising with what avidity
fowls will' devour this substance.
• At this season of the year the
poultry house should be thoroughly
cleaned. Whiteliash. the walls, rub
the roost .with kerosene, and, if your
flock hasNitTered with lice, smoke it
thoroughly with a pan of charcoal,
upon whitp. you can throw one• or
two pounds of flour sulphur, and
fumigate the whole place for two or
three houf shutting it up closely.
Of coarse you will take
.care not to
let the pry into the..bouse until
all the. sulphurious , fumes are dissi4
pated. After such a rennvatini prol,
cess the houie will not be - likely tQ
harbor any, vermin. And if you
`provide plenty of good food, a ,b4:4
:tif charcoal, another' of bone dust and
'a box - of asllo,`yotrtwill have no rea
'.son to comlilam of the produce of
fyour hennery, but will doubtless
have plenty of eggs for your own
use, and, if you keep a good-sized
flock, will MO have plenty to sell.—

Raising Pigs.

swine breeder at this season of the
year get the greatest 1 ossible
growth from the spring pigs. There
is no perfbd in the life of the hog
when so great a return for the food
consumed is, possible as during the
first six mo . nth4, and it is here that
the advantages of skillful feeding are
apparent. Unless great ears, be talc.

to five weeks Old.- The, milk of the

rapid growth' in the litter of pigs
during the first two or -three weeks,
is not settleient to answer the de- -
mantis of the same litter as they grow
older, hence.the pigs ishould early be
taught to look 'elsewhere, for a part'
of their sustenance.. 'fhb, is an ea s y
