CLOSED IN HELS.7IIN, SHUT ON EARTII. • Lattof was a poor man who lived in the king's capital. •- He was very poor, for though industrious, he was always having seine misfortune. :He made te eny plans for : improving his circum stances, but they &Ways miscarried. He often wondered why it• was that others succeeded better in the world, bift some: bow he could never get more than barely what sufficed for his daily necessities. One night when he had' fallen - asleep, thinking over all his difficulties, he had a r emarkable drealr. Ile thought he was in heaven;-i and the thing that struck him partibularly, as he walked about in the upper world,_ was this, that the floor on which be' trod. was all perforated with holes of different sizes. -- - He summoned up courage to accost one of the shining ones whom he saw there, and to ask . him the meaning of these holes. "These," said t•he angel, "are the open ings through , which the bounties of heaven descend upon ,the inhabitants of the earth. And whereas some of them, as you see, are of a great size; these are the passages for the supply of those who are on earth called rich and prosperous, for they receive a large share of heaYen's good things. And whereas others,- as you see, are smaller; these are the open ings for the lots of men in humbler sta tion, each one receiving according to the size of the hole, assigned to him." "And could yop oot show me the open ing of my ,lot ? " said Lattof with some eagerness. , - "Come this way," said the angel, "and - 31 you shall seeit. So he led the way for some distance, 'and indicated a very small opening=it seemed as small as a pin point,—and Lat tof understood that that represented the supply of Heaven's blessings he received. "Now," thought. he, "if toe angel would but turn his back for a little, I might widen this Opeoing." And when he had waited a little, till no one observ ed'him, he essayed= to execute his pur pose. ' Finding no tool of , any kind, 'he set to work with his finger, and proceeded to scrape and pick and dig with - his nail to widen the hole . . His work WU pro ceeding slowly 4nd Satisfactorily, when, to his great misfortune, he gave his fin •ger a sudden turn and wrenched off the nail, thus not only filling the, hole but • causing him great pain ; so he' cried out in his sleep„"Oh, oh ! alas, alas ! murder!' Now it happened . that at that moment the nightwatch was passing Lattof door and hearing such cries; they burSt open the door to see the cause of the alarm, and found Lattof in bed, pretending, as they thought, to be asleep. , "You are a cunning fellow, too," they said; "come, get up, and tell us what is this you are about?" • The poor man, what between his strange dream and the sudden appearance of the policemen, did not well linow what to say and of- course he was marched • ciff to prison. In the morning he was brought before the Agha of thepolice ;_ and when the watchmen had recounted how they had heard the cries of:- murder within his house at the dead of night, he was order ed to give an account of himself. Now all he could tell was the story of his dream, as we have related it; but the Agha looked upon that as a tale concoct ed to conceal some dreadful crime, and ordered him to be kept under arrest till an examination•could be made. Still no trace of mtirder could be found in Lattors house, nor was any per son reported as . murdered, and when questioned repeatedly, he adhered to. the Same tale of hla wonderful dream. Now the king was in the habit of in quiring for the news of the day, and among other things told him to beguile the time, was the story of Lattof, in Which he was, so interested that he order ed the man to be brbught -, before him. The king was satisfied, on inquiry, thatLattof was a simple Minded and had compassion on him in his pover- "Cheer.un," he said, "we shall see if we cannot widen the opening of this lot of yours." So taking him out to an open space near the palace, he said, "Take a stone and throw it as far is you can, }lnd ail the space traversed hy,the.stone shall be yours." "Now," thotrght Lattof, "here is a Chanc e ; for ,who is greater than the king. So he picked up a stone, poised it, and threw it with all his might. I do not know what it was-7—wliether a beam of wood overhead, or a telegraph wire, or. a stone archway ; but something 19118 right in the path - of the stone 'that , it rebounded, on Lattof's head:, nnd,lald him dead on the grround. • ' • .In that hour the king said,' :iierceive that, what is shut in heavenleigiotbe opened on earth." ptiul . '..4o.4',ltotpool4. Carrots for Horses and Cattle. No food of the root kind is so keenly relished by. 1101'8e8 as carrots; indeed, most horses preter them to oats. Carrots, when mixed with chaff without corn, will keep horses in excellent condition for Performing all kinds of , labor. They may be fed from December to the begin ning or middle of - May i l to which period, with proper mare in this -latitude, they may be preserved. In - certain parts of EuroPe farmers depend solely upon car rots, with a proper allowance of hay, as winter food for-their horses, without giv. ing themany grain whatever; • and - it is asserted that by this niode of feeding farm horses a considerable saving of hay is effected, as compared with the dual custom of the country of feeding corn and hay. Draft and_ farm horses are given in the proportion ofliftTor seven ty pounds weight each of . carrots per day on an average,not-allowing them quite so many in the very' short days, and Some times more - than that quantity in the spring months. A portion of the carrots are sliced in the cut chaff or hay, the .rest are given whole to the horses at night, with a moderate quantity of hay; in their racks; and with this food the, horses usu ally enjoy uninterrupted health. There are persons who, think that carrots only given as food to horses are injurious to their constitutions; but - this belief is .without foundation other than prejudice. Experiments carefully conducted have proved that team horses, winter and sum .mer will perform ordinary_ work on car rots as a' winter's food, without the assist ance of proper soiling in summer, and 1 may be kept the entire gyear round upon the produce of an acre of land in carrots. Without reference to the many local opportunities of a market for the sale of the carrot, it -is the most valuable es culent 'in :the entire range, of practical husbandry on account of Its Superior properties as a general article of food for several descriptions of animals .usually kept on a farm. Ile only reasonable ob jection urged againste more general tc introduction of carrots into the general system of cropping is th r expensive and tedious early culture, hick hich -objection certainly has considerable weight, • Nev ertheless when capitill and industry can be combined, carrots offer ,a fairer opportu nity for a remunerative return than any comparative crop; arid where introduced will be found a valuable article of food for horses, pigs and poultry of all de scriptions. sutter of the most agreeable appearance and exquisite flavor may-be obtained for the table by feeding mulch cows upon.barrotS, and if stored for them during severe weather in winter there will be no diminution in quantity, or de. terioration in the quality of their pro duce. . In establishments for trotting or racing horses, sarrotE3 are especiany benefteial. Toward spring when the horses have been fed many months on dry food—oats, corn and hay—they are extremely ser viceable, indeed, necessary.. Among i horsemen they have gamed , the charac- ter of being good for the wind ; but we susp?ct,che only merit they can claim in this respect is" theY keep the body cool and properly open, by which they con duce greatly to health and condition, and consequently to clearness of wind. Aboutthe same thing may be said of their claims to producing a fine coat; whatever conduces to health does so; can .sequently carrots do. To any one who has been in a racing stable, or auy stable where carrots are fed, it may seem almost useless to say that they should be sliced in pretty long slices. it ie dangerous to give them cut crossways, as horses are ex tremely fond of them, and, if at all greedy, would be apt to bolt pieces of them whole, which would be quite likely to cause :some of them to stick in the throat. Car; rots, if kept in a dry place, in sand, will keep a long tithe, eor in. sand, they will keep out of doors, , if r covered sufficiently with straw and then banked up with earth.--National Live Stock Journal. Apples for Cows. Those _farmers who fed apples freely to their cows and . other stock last fall' have found them very useful in increasing the quantity of milk, and many think they have improved the quality also. At the meeting of tbe Board. at - Worcester there was a general expression of opinion in favor of the ' practice and its . ecomomy. Many thought the apples , were worth 12* cents :a bushel fOr this purpose, and no one put them less than 10 "cents, and from that to 15. , We ' think they are worth at least 10 cents a bushel to feed out, and that is_ far better thin to let them rot on the ground. But they ought to be fed out when mature, when they are ripe enough to eat, when their sugar is elaborated. It does not follow that tehy should be mellow enough to suit us, but they should at least be ripe. VALUABLE FARM FOR SALE.
