The subject of the state of the roads throughout the country is one of great in- tcrcst to the travelling public. In a. new country like ours fast rules cannot be laid down for the building and improvement of the country roads. The specral circum- stances of the people and the place must in every instance be taken into account. file?» it often does seem as though the condition of the country roads receive less attention than the importance of the subject de- mands. We have far too long looked upon the performance of statute labor as a. sort of punishment inflicted by Her Majesty, and upon the Queen’s Highway as . a property in which we had no claim and for which we had no care. The keeping up of the roads should be looked upon as a profitable investment pay- ing large dividends. We are constantly-on our travels reminded by the Sight which meet: us on every hand that this is so, and that those communities which take most stock, or if you prefer, invest most freely in the enterprise of road building, draw the largest dividends. N9 was who wants to buy a hm cares to go into a community which im oses upon him an impassable road, wit all that that implies. It implies not only inconvenience and discomfort, but positive loss in the working of his farm. It keeps the traveller away from his place. It makes every improvement he makes upon his place for the pur- pose of improving its appearance seem like waste. A community with poor roads cncrally means a community Iwhich is bac ward in its tendencies. 0n the other hand, a. community with well im~ proved public highways means a. commun- ity of enterprise and spirit; it means to the , intending purchaser of farm lands that he will have for neighbors men who keep abreast of the times in thought and dce . Human character is shown by little things. We are so largely the result of our environment that it often seems that in the grasp and grab which characterizes this pres- ent age, we lose sight of many little things all along our pathway, which, being attend~ ed to, would help to promote taste, entcr- ' priseand comfort and so improve the charac- ter of the people. It is not the intention of the writer to argue that crime generally germinates in the mud-holes in the roads, nor to admit that godliness comes as the natural result of the smooth running of the family carriage over the nicely gravelled road; but it will be admitted by all that M 3 carrots and Jerusalem artichokes act on the digestive glands and so promote the health of horses. Besides carrots, when they cease to be available clue to El..- .. i- vanceof spring, the artichokes tlm'. .~..:ep Well during frost come then as a :22. in! relief. Potatoes often produce coin, and should always be well washed. In any case, whatevm' fowl substitute is employed, it should never replace more than the moiety of the feed of oatsâ€"Farm and Home. Prevention onelloiv'cher by Inoculation. At a recent met-ting of the Academy of Sciences, Paris, a paper was read on the preventive inoculations of yellow fever by M. Domingos Freire. The author has in- oculated 10,881 persons with cultures of Micrococcus amariL The mortality of those so vaccinated was 04 per cent., al- though the patients lived in districts infect- ed with yellow fever, while the death rate of the uninoculated during the same period was from 30 to 40 per cent. These results have lead the government of the Brazilian States to found an institute for the culture of the virus of yellow fever and other infec- tious diseases, and to appoint M, Excite the director. Why Women Wore Chosen. On account of the prevalence of intcmpcr- auce among the men in Holland, women have been employed at railroad sthchcs with great success. Not an accident hp: occurred since the women were installed In their unique office. If the precedent be- comes established that a sober woman in a more vglggble servant than _a tipsy man, there will be a great revolution in the up dustrial world. _ V ._..â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€"--â€"â€"----â€"â€"-â€"l. 3 Gossip Abbot Women.

There is no bcttcr sheep food than peas, , and as about as many peas can be grown ' on an acre, if mixedâ€"so as to be half cats I --as when grown alone, and as the oats I will, in ordinary years, hold the peas up so i they can be cut with a mower, it is better I to mix them in the proportion of two ; bushels of the small Canada field pea to one I bushel of cats, choosing a kind of oats I with pretty stifi' straw. The best way to prepare the ground and sow the peas is to ' use good land. Corn stubble, if one has? it, is best, but if sod ground is used have it . fall-plowed, or plowed as early in spring as I possible, and, as soon as it is in good work- ing order, harrow lightly and sow two bushels of peas per acre; immediately plow from four to six inches, so as to cover the peas at least four inches deep. \Vait a week and sew one bushel per acre of oats, and give a. thorough harrowing. I This will leave the peas deep in the soil,and I the oats near the surface,just as they should . be ; it will not injure the peas, will kill all weeds that have started and will give each 5 an even send-off to insure the largest yield. . I It is a. good plan to roll the ground after 1 - the oats are harrowed, and it will leave it I smoother for the harvesting. Soon after the peas get beyond the eating stage, and while still green enough so that the pods I will dry down holding peas, cut the crop I with a. mower, and, when cured, so thev will not mold, but not enough so as to lose the leaves, put them into cocks of 200 or , 300 pounds, and aftera week of good curing I weather they can be simply aired out and . put into mews; or they can be put into I good-sized stacks without cocking, but the I stacks should be topped, or capped, with I any cheap hay or swamp grass, put on when I not more than half cured ; otherwise, they will wet half through, and much will be: spoiled. This crop may be threshed with a I machine, but for sheep feeding it will be better to feed without, as the sheep will eat everything clean; and the farmer can I feed accm‘ding to his judgment, and the haulm will not be broken. â€" American Agriculturist. Feeding Horses. I l During my long career as a breeder I ; acted on the old motto, “A horse well I groomed is equal to half-fed.” When aI horse on returning from work is heated I ' never allow it to enter the stable till it has been walked up and down for a llttle time, to allow the agitated lungs to return to their normal state. In order to possess horses of strong andresistingconstitution, it a is essential to give them suitable and sub- stantial food, of which oats constitute the type. The attempt to replace oats cannot succeed even though economy be the desir- ed aim. Beans approach most to oats in point of nutrimeut. Indian corn, peas, ‘ rye and barley are foods that readily pro- duce derangement in the health of the horse. Rye should be given only to those horses that suffer most from fatigue. It is employed steeped or cooked, but not crushed. Though horses appear to relish Indian corn they do not de- rive trom it the strength and endurance requisite for stiff work. Corn-fed horses are very liable to stomachic troubles Peas ought to be given prudently, as they bloat the stomach and induce constipation. They are not the less a. fortifying food and go well with oats. I you went barefooted when a boy. “N o, I haven’t had time to look it up, but I haven’t had a single reply. Are you sure you put it in 2” The clerk got down the file and turned to the “wants.” “There it is,” he said, whirling the paper around so the advertiser could see it. He read it over carefully and his face lighted up. “No wonder I didn’t get any answers,” he said, curtly. “What’s the matter with it 2” asked the clerk, hauling it around before him. “Read it,” commanded the advertiser; and the clerk read : Ten lady typewriters wanted ; state ages. pply by letter to A. B. 8: Co. The clerk apologized, made the correc- tion and next day the advertiser received ninety-nine replies, and they are still coming. He Kept His Word. “My dear,” said a young and fashionable New York lady to her~ plain old-fashioned husband, “I hope you are not going toqu at dinner before all the? company about how Every time we have company you shock the peo~ ple by talking about your bare feet when you were a boy.” “My dear, I’ll not mention my bare feet.” He kept his promise. He did not say a word about his bare feet, but he talked long and eloquently about having been obliged to walk backward out of church on one occasion, owing to the dilapidated con- dition of his unmentionables consequent on his indigent conditionâ€"Texas Sittings. Compensation. When Eve her paradise forsook, She cast a. swift despairing look At Eden in its loveliness ; Then, conscious of her sad distress, From heaven she stole a bit of sky To beam forever in her eye. A star that circled in a dance She seized to radiate her glance ; A tiny rose that blossomed there She plucked to make her cheeks as fair, And snatched a trembling drop of dew To purify her heart anew ; And so, amid all hopes and fears, A bit of Eden woman bears. An Inherited Attitude. Fatherâ€"Your school report is generally good, but you are marked very low in de- portment. \Vhy is that? Boyâ€"1 always forget and stand on one foot and rest the other on a railing or some- thing when I recite and teacher marks me for that. I told her I couldn't help it and she said maybe I inherited it. “Inherited it ‘3" “Yessir. She said that's the way men stand when they are talking over a. bar.” No Need of Dying Young. Bismarck declares that he owes his rug- ged old age to the practice of bathing re- gularly and freely in cold water. Gladstone ascribes his longevity to the simplicity and regularity of his habits. Tennyson believes tlidt his having celebrated Ins 51st birthday is due to his not having worried or fretted over the small affairs of life. Von Moltko thought his ripe old age was owing to temperance in all the affairs of life, and plenty of exercise in the open air. De Les- seps thinks he owes his advanced age to 11k. causes. Taking all these life-giving agencre: together, and considering how easy they are of attainment, there doesn’t seem to be any good and sufficient reason why we should die young. .. t
