Blackberries are high this year, owing to short crop. If growers would give the canes fertilizers, both spring and fall, they would fiad it profitable. Keep the cabbages well worked. The more one cultivates the crop the aott thrifty the plants.

Bran is probably the cheapest food that can be purchased and brought oa the farm, with the excep tkm of cotton seed and linseed meal. Oae advantage in favor of bran ia that it fa rich ia mineral matter, aad whea fed with skim milk to pigs k gives excellent results.

All the clovers are bene fited by lime, and lime also gives good results cn Kentucky blue fraw. which is one of the best va rieiio for hwn. The watering troughs oa some fanfare never acrubbed and hare a slimy appearance. They are breeding places of disease, as any disease affecting a single animal is more easily communicated to the others through tlic drinking water than ia any other manner. While it may he impossible to prevent the animals from drinking ftom the same source, yet even* trough should be cleaned daily. Ducklings will perish if allowed on poods of cold water, but after the water becomes warm they will enjoy the exercise and find consid erable food. It is claimed that the Pekin variety thrives without poods which is true; but all varieties pre fer water in which to swim, and will keep in more thrifty condition if given such privileges; but young dttcka should not be permitted on ponds until they arc feathered. Progressive dairymen are not now satisfied with less than 300 pounds of butter per year from each cow. Those who believe that there is nothing in the breed, and who buy fresh cons to take the places of those that become dry, do not realize one-third as much batter as could be derived from better cows. When one cow pro duces as much in one year as some do in three years, the dairyman who does not raise his heifer calves loses more than be can gain in the future. It may cost something to keep a calf, but if it is well bred it will repay all expenses and more. When aeeding to crimson clover this year do not delay until late in the fall. One reaaou why crimson clover fails with some is that they sow the afied too late to allow the plants to make headway before winter. On sandy aoils the frosts dam not injure, but on heavy land they arc anna-tines thrown up. The land for crimaou clover should alaobe well prepared, and no one aboold expect a good catch crop when the and fa sown on land that has wcriwd no preparation. Lime always benefits crimson clover if broadcasted aad harrowed ia when aeeding, about ten bushels of lime per acre.—Philadelphia Record. HIS SIGHT THREATENED.

McFarland, s(i]>eriutend cut of the Iron Pier at Coney Is land, has a 41.v pound turtle, which wis caught by Jacobus Smyth. After a night of extremely hard luck Smyth was about to take iu his lines shortly after dawn. "Here goes for a weak fish, a bass or a skate," he said, throwing over a line freshly baited. "If I don't get sometliing;l will pull up and go home." While lighting his pipe the old fisherman was almost jerk ed from the pier by a strong pull at his line. He foun d he had some thing too heavy for his rod. Capt. McFarland got a net and went down the piling to the water's edge. He discovered that a large turtle, cov ered with barnacles, had swallowed the bail and hook. With the aid of McFarland's net and several lines passed under the turtle it was lifted to the pier. The turtle put np a strong fight on the pier. A boat-hook was jabbed in its right side and turned it over on its back. "Pop tell nw a fairy story." : "I don't know any fairy stories."

The hunting of birds of bright plumage, for the millinery tr.tde. furnishes a profitable occupation nowadys for great number* of na tive Indians in Central and South Africa, the blow-gun—a long tube made from the stem of a certain kind of palm—being the weapon ordinarily employed. Fine-pointed darts wrapped with pahn-oottou to make them fit the bore, serve as projectiles, propelled by the breath and in Brazil and Ecuador they arc usually poisooed with the deadly "cural" —a mixture of snake venom and other powerful toxic agents. The poison makes the slightest scratch fatal, but not instantly, so hat the stricken bird does not frighten its companions by tumb ling with a flop to the ground. Thus an entire flock may be des troyed one at a time by a single amrksmaa, aad little damage is dooe to the precious skins. From Ecuador come great numbers of humming btrds.otrtaincd in this wsy, and not oae skin ia a thous and is preccptibly injured. For aome reason ant satisfactori ly explaiaed, white men are unable to acquire the art of using the blow-pipe—thai is to say, with darts. Settiwi they learn how to employ this Mtpoa of prariaiou for the projection of small clay balls, to kill birds, bat ordinarily the natives attend to the business of destruction, skinning the feath ered creatures as fast as they are secured, and disposing of them to white traders. In this manner im mense numbers of brilliant tropi cal birds are exported from Brazil, mostly byway of Para, while fror- Goatcniala, Costa Rico awl Hond uras oome the superb long-tailed trofcous, which is beauty rival the bi«* qt paradise. The neighborhood of Bogota is one of the mcfct productive regions in the world for beautiful birds. There are deep vwlleys and lofty niountains round aliout. so that species lieloiiging to various cli matic /ones from tropical to sub arctic are represented. Long ago, Europeans skilled in the art taught some of the natives liow to skin birds for market, and today many of the Indians are able to do this kind of work as well as the average taxidermist, the result being that the skins are exported to Uurope and the United States ill a very fine state. One of the most remarkable meth ods of biid-catching is employed by the Indians of Ecuador for taking the sky-«seareliing condor, which has to be sought *» the loftiest sum mits of the mountains. The hunt er digs a hole in the ground large enough to hide him and ov'er it spreads a cow's hide. Close by the hole he has placed the carcass of an ancient horse, driven to tlic spot and killed there, to serve as bait. When the condor arrives and is busy feeding, it is seized by the legs. A few years ago the rbea, or "South American Ostrich," was well-nigh exterminated in Patago nia. because of the demand for its feathers as material for feather dusters. Only when it became so scarce that the pursuit of it was no longer profitable did the slaughter of this valuable and interesting species cease. —Saturday Evening Post. TO MY ntIKNDS.

Tlnrt are many stories of Ike young King, says Cottiers Weekly, which testifies to his good heart, and others which would sees* to imply, that one gurssc* from his appearance* that he poss- a saving sense of humor. When the King passes in his car riage through the streets of Madrid, anyone is privileged to run be,ide it and throw petitions at him. The custom is mediaeval and danger ous to the King, and frequently to i the petitioner. The other day an old voan darted toward the King's carriage; but a Guardia Civil, mistaking her motive, seized her roughly and threw her into the crowd. Instantly the King ordered the carriage to be stopp. d. and, jamp ing down, ran back to the police man. "Why did you touch that wo man?"* he demanded. "Yon moat never lay your hands roughly apoa a woman?. You hare done very iß_" Then he turned to the old lady, and, raising his hat, said, **l will take your petition, madam."
