Stock Breeding Grain liaising.
A farmer who for a long term of
years has a good paying crpp four
seasons out of five may consider
himself in average luck, and this
fact has induced many to turn their
attention from grain growing to dai
ry farming. Though the price of
butter and cheese are subject to very
wide fluctuations, it is not often thf.t
a farmer, having once embarked ;n
dairy farming, ever goes back to the
growing of grain for the market. In
view of the present demand for beef
cattle however, it seems somewhat
surprising that a greater number of
farmers do not turn iheir attention
to 6tock breeding. Beef is a com
modity with which it would seem
impossible to glut the market As
the quality improves the consump
tion increases, and if its price de
clines prceptibly it straightway be
gins to take the place of some other
staple article of food, so that its con
tinuenceis immediately and in most
cases permanently rendered broader.
Why it is the farmers will, year
after year, go on cropping their
farms io death, and reaping very
meager returns till they or their
children are driven into other lines
of business, while the old homestead
is reduced to all but a desert, is dif
ficult to determine. The establish
ment of cheese factories has done
much to correct or rather lessen the
tendency toward over cropping, but
even dairv farming is not so well
calculated to restore land to a state
of fertility as is 6tock raising. The
manure frcm a herd of cattle amply
compensates the land for all that the
cattle can by any possible means
take from i whiie experience has
always shown that those farms
whose only marketed product is
livestock 6teadily increases in fertil
ity. The results of grain farming and
stock farming may be summed up
as follows: The grain farmer spends
his energies in getting all he can out
of his land during the short space
intervening between the beginning
of spring's work and the end of har
vest, or perhaps he wav have a few
acres of wheat, which he sows in the
fall, and after sprouting waits till
the advent of spring to renew its
growth. In any event hia farm lies
unproductive during the greater
ortion of the year, while his taxes,
the interests on his investments, and
bis family and household expenses,
are going on all the time. And with
all this, his farm is every day becom
ing less productive.
The stock-breeder has his work at
his hand the whole year around.
Some fields must be cropped with
coarse grains tor winter feed, and
these are more than re-fertilized by
the product of manure every year.
These fields have to be cultivated by
the farmer, but his pasture lands on
ly require cultivation at long inter
vals, while, as for the rest of the
work, the herd manures the land,
reaps the crop and carries it to mar
ket. The crop of the intelligent and
thrifty stock farmer is growing from
the 1st of January to the 31st of De
cember, night and day, hur by
hour, increasing in value, while ev
ery year sees his farm more produc
tive and breeding herd more richly
bred and valuable.
It is not necessary for the farmer
of small means who would turn his
attention to dairying to have a herd
of Jerseys, Holstems, Fnsesians to
6tart with, nr for him who would
breed beef cattle to make his com
mencement with polled Angus,
Herefords or short horns. He can
make a beginning with what he hap
pens to have, and improve his herd
just as rapidly as his means will
permit him to do so. In the far
northwestern Territories eome full
blooded and pretty thoroughly un
civilized Indians are wealthy stock
owners, and there are certainly few
Canadian farmers who are not in a
position to make as extensive begin
nings as they did. Canadian Stwk
Ilrevdcr. Saving Manure.
The pig-pen ,poultry-house,stables
and yards will turn out complete
fertilisers that can be depended up
on, which cannot be said of many
commercial fertilizers that contain
but a part of the ingredients of
plant food, supposing them to be
genuine. With few exceptions com
mercial fertilizers, when intelli
gently used are valuable aids in pro
ducing large crops; but when a
commercial manure is advertised as
desirable for all crops, on all soils,
beware of fraud. Phosphates and
super-phosphates may furnish a
good supply of phosphoric acid, sul
phuric acid, and lime, but they lack
in potash and ammonia. By using
such fertilizers a very stimulating
effect may be produced for a few
years, but unless they are supple
mented by more complete and sub
stantial manure the6oil may become
impoverished in those elements that
the fertilizers do not furnish. To be
sure, they produce extraordinary re
sults for a few years, and costs no
more than hauling out a good coat
of barnyard manure ; but in increas
ing them you are borrowing from
the future, and drawing upon the
fertility of your farm.
So make all you can of good, sub
stantial, complete manure at home.
Very few farmers realize in this way
as much from the resources at their
command as they ought. How
much does the average farmer get
from hia pig-pens? A load or two
each year of the clear, raw manure
that is dumped into a few heaps out
in the field. Its great strength goes
to waste on a few square rods, pro
ducing a rank growth of vegetation
that will lodge and, in a large meas
ure be lost The same manure
properly composted with more bulky
absorbents would have covered an
acre and made it highly productive.
When will we learn the value of ab
eorbeuts in the pens, yards, and sta
bler. The stiaw stack and the muck
bed may be used to absorb the fer
tilizing liquids and gasses that are
daily going to waste. Put a good
coat of manure under the hen roosts,
keep a supply of it for the stable
gutter, the yards, and tho privies.
Keep ike pig-pens, the stable, the
calf-pens, aod sheep-pens well Jitter
ed with fine chaff and straw, and you
will find that the loads of manure
upon your farm will be doubled.

Of course you have all heard of
Castle Garden in New York. Now
when you say "garden" you think of
Deatly kept paths, and bright flow
ers nodding at yon as you pass, and
bees and butterfles flying from flow
er to flower. How disappointed you
would be when you looked at Castle
Garden 1 It is a shabby building,
and such a queer shape round
built on the battery. Years ago it
was a fort ; afterwards it was put to
various uses. A reception was given
to General Lafayette in this build
ing, and it was here the great singer
Jenny Lind, sang when she came to
New York. Now the immigrants
that is, the poor people who come in
big ships from Europe and other
foreign countries are landed there.
You know these people have no
homes in this country, and some of
them have no friends.
There are people authorized to
care for them and send them where
they want to go. Sometimes they
expect to buy land and build hous
es out West, and support themselves
by working on farms. Sometimes
they come here and stay in Castle
Garden until they are hired to work
by some one. Everything is done
to make them comfortable. But the
most surprising immigrants who
come to this country are the little
children who come all alone; that is
without father or mother or big
brothers or sisters to look after them.
The parents of these children have
not money enough to pav the fare
for themselves and for their children
so they leave their children at their
old homes with the grandnaother or
6ome other relation, and then they
come to this country, and earn mon
ey enough to make a home and pay
the passage of the children.
When the relatives in Europe get
the letters telling when and how to
send the children, they tie a card on
the children's neck, on which is
written the address of the new home
take them to the 6hip and they sail
for the strange country, and when
they land sometimes the father or
mother meets them at Castle Garden.
You can just imagine how the chil
dren feel when they meet their fath
er and mother.
But sometimes when they land at
New York they have only gone part
of the journey to their home. Last
week two children, a brother and
sister landed at Castle Garden. The
boy was ten years eld and the girl
was four. Their father and mother
had come to this country and left
these children at their old home in
Ireland, three years ago, and only
now had a place to shelter them out
in Dakota. These children stood
side by side in the crowd : their
faces were not very clean, and they
looked very frightened ; such a hur
ry and such pushing and scolding
were enough to frighten big folks.
Not one familiar face! It was very
warm, the room they were in was
not over clean, and every one was
too busy to notice the two little
children who huddled together close
to the wall. After awhile a man
discovered these two homesick,
frightened children. They did not
know where they were going, but he
looked at the card and put them on
the boat that would take them to
tue cars, lietore you read tins, no
doubt these two little ones have
reached the little home out in Da
kota. How glad they are to get
there you can well imagine. Three
years away from your mother!
Think of it ! While you are reading
this, I think that little girl is in her
mother s lap, and the boy sits on the
door-step beside his fether,telling all
the things that happened on that
long journey from Ireland to Dako
ta. Christian Union.

Worlds Industrial and Cotton
Centennial Exposition.
The World's Industrial and Cotton
Centenial and Exposition will open
December lCth and continue open
until Mav 31, 18S5. The address of
the Commissioner for this State is
R. II. Thomas, Mecbanicsburg,
Cumberland county, Pa.,
Commisioner Thoas is laboring
with the ereat railroad lines of the
country for the purpose of securing
low rates of fare from all principal
railroad centres in the State to New
Orleans and return during the
World's Industrial and Cotton Cen
tennial Exposition in that city, and
he has submitted to the railroad
officials the following schedules of
fares : Round trip tickets good for
20 days, $30; round taip tickets for
60 davs. 835: and round trip ticket
good for the duration of the Exposi
$40. If the people of Pennsylva
nia will unite in demanding this
schedule of rates the railroad com
panies will be compelled to acqui
esce, and the result will be that
thousands of our citizens will avail
themselves of these reasonable char
ges and visit the Exposition during
the coming Winter.
( Commissioner j 1 nomas will Keep ine
people of the State fully informed in
regard to all matters "pertaining to
this great Exposition, and will put
forth his utmost efforts to procure
the lowest rates of fare for traveling
and hotel accommodations at New
Orleans.
He will have a small, but comfort
ably furnished office in connection
with the State's building, where
Pennsylvanians will at all times be
welcome, and where the Commission
ers, or an assistant, will be pleased
to see them and impart such infor
mation as thev mav desire to ob
tain.
The Daily Tcleqraoh, of Harris-
burg, says :
"They're is no longer any doubt
that Pennsylvania will be well and
creditably represented at the Worlds
Industrial Exposition, at New Or
leans. Corumisioner Thomas has
taken hold of the work with a vim
that knows no let up until it is satis
factory accomplished. Nearly all
the principal cities and towns in the
State will contribute fine collections
to the State exhibit All our im
portant railroads have entered upon
the enterprise with an energy and
activity that leaves no doubt of ulti
mate success. Prominent manufac
turers are contributing to the State
exhibit, and our mines and rich
mineral deposits of every kind will
he favorebly represented. Gen.
Cameron. Col. Young and other
leading agricultureists will also fur
nish valuable acquisitions to the
State collection. Their still exists an
unacountable apathy in some local
ities. This, no doubt, a personal
visit from the Commissioner would
obviate, but his time is too brief and
his labors toot arduous to permit
him personally see everybody or vis
it every locality. It is hoped that
State pride will induce all our citi
zens to contribute in some way so
that th old Keystone may not be
called upon to occupy a second po
sition among the great sisterhood of
States. 1 he excitement incident to
a great political campaign has in
creased the difficulties that surround
in undertaking ot this kind, out
Col. Thomas has been equal to the
occasion, and can flatter himself on j
the success of the undertaking, and
will receive the graceful thanks of
the people of this grand old Com
iflonwealth for his untiring efforts
to place her in the front rank where
she by right belongs. The exposi
tion will open Dec. ICth, and all ar
ticles for exhibition should reach
the Commissioner before the- close
of this month."

were clothed to the feet Curiously

had its origin, ts far as I know, in
Nathaniel Belcher, then f Port By
ron, Rock Island County 111., lately
deceased at Rock Island. During
the war of the rebellion Mr. Belcher
was enthusiastically devoted to the
Union. He was an accomplished
writer, and all his life much inter
ested in politics. Though never
able to make a set soecch, he was
noted for his epigrammatic utter
ances, which sometimes conveyea
more and with greater force than
the most elaborate argument At
the election in November, 1S64,
many invalid soldiers were home on
furlough, to vote. McClellan was
always popular with the army, all
were tired of war, and many with
Democratic antecedents hesitated
how to vote, and all were looking
anxiously to see how the Democrat
ic soldies boys would vote. As they
were approaching the ballot box
not a word was said until they offer
ed their votes for Abraham Lincoln.
Mr. Belcher, who had watched their
movements with a heart beating
as deep as though the fate of the Un
ion hung on their ballots could con
tain himself no longer, and shaking
his long, bony finger at a row of
Democrats, exclaimed: "That's
right; God bless you, boys; that's
right; show these copperheads that
you vote the way you shot" It be
came a local watchword. Since
then I have heard it used by orators

Strange Playfellows.
The following accouirt of the re
markable friendshin botween the el-
ephant ' Queen " ;nd little- Don
Melville is taken from the article by
John K. Corvell in St. Xil,ola. for
October: When he could just tod
die, Don would run up to Queen
with a. chuckle of delight, and put
ting his white plump little arms
around her great brown, hairy trunk,
would tug away with all his lit!
strength at if he believed he could
null that living mountain over.
k" And strange to say, lie actually
accomplished bis object, for Queen
humored the little lellows iancy
Swaying and rumbling with delight,
she would gradually allow herself
to come to her kiiws, and iir.ally to
fall over on her side. And it was
touching to see how all the time she
kept her eyes lovingly on the beauti-
u.l baby, taking care that no move'
uient of hers bhould even disturb
him !
"When she was at hist prostratf,
Don would look around as if to say.
'See what I cr.n do!' Then he
would imitate what he had seen the
trainer perform, lie would clanib
btr and climb untii he was on Queens
head, and there he would sif, with
the air of a conqueror.' He was
quite likely to thrust his little fist
into the elephant's eye, or to swing
his foot into her mouth, but not a
motion would the patient creature
make while he sat there, for she
seemed to know that he was not
very secure in his high perch.
" Sometimes Don would carry his
picture-blocks to Queen, and togeth
er they would build houses. Don
would put on one block, and then
Queen would take one up in her
trunk and put it in its place as care
fully as if she had been used to the
game all her life ; and when Don
would kick the house down, as he
usually did when it was about half
built, his merry laugh and her thunder-like
rumble were something
worth going miles to hear.
It never seemed to occur to Don
that there was anything odd in his
companionship with the gigantic
creature ; and had it entered his lit
tle head to do so. there is no doubt
that lie would have proposed a
walk in the fields with her. with as
much innocence as if rhe had been
a small dog."
