Dick Hope at thai moment .sprang
out of his hitirjry lihtlj', and gallantly
extended a hand to his wile.
Nonsense!" exclaimed Mary Hope.
I am not Mtih a helpless creature that
1 catftirel in myself," and she stepped
lightly into the buggy with a merry
laiiirh.

"Need managing like other men,"
intiMTiipted her daughter-in-law with
another laugh.
"" ()I1 Mr. Hope, coming down from
the Maldr at that moment, eyed the
hor-e. liturgy :nl harness (Dick had
ependid M:en hundred dollars on
that turn-out), then stood patting the
lior-e's neek kindly. He was an ad

wi sought far and wide on all points
of horse-llesli: "There's fine mettle

' (.'heap at four hundred," said Mr.
liipe "Have you tried her yet?"
"1 think she's good for two twenty

" Why. isn't that a fast horse, Diek?"

aroused.

"Come, now, what would you give,

"That reminds me, Diek; you'd best
take the road round by Drake's."
" And Ioe a good" half-hour," said
Dnk.
That's a long way round, father,"
l:iid the elder Mrs. Hope.
"You take my advice." said her hus
band. "1 nieanconiingbaek. It doesn't
matter going. If it should blow, you'll
find it safest."
Dick, who was adjusting a strap,
looked oil' cast and west, smiled in a
) satisfied way, and observed, "I don't
bee :iny signs of a storm."
" "Nor 1," said his father; "but no
one knows anything about the wind
here. I'll never forget the sweep 1 got
tuentv years ago coining over Pringlc's
rial " "
"There is where wc arc going, isn't
it. Diek?" Mrs Diek Hope looked the
least trillc anxious as she turned to her
- husband. "Was it so bad. Mr. Hope?"
" Had! Uad's no 11:11110 for it. Why,
it blew my wagon as far as from here to
the bam blew the horses olT their feet,
lore up trees, and lodged me against a
jroek that saved my life."
"That must have been terrible," said
Mary Hope.
"Don'jt let hhriftightcn you," said
1 ick, smilingly: "lightning never strikes
twice in the same place. I'm all right,
you see. The only time I was blown
tiwav was when 1 went "East for you.
Arc we all ready now? I.nskcl in,
mother?"
Mrs. Hope nodded gayly, Dick lifted
rf the reins lightly, and tuyay tho new
'-busrgy with its happy octmpants sped
ever the prairie.
It was early morning. The fingers of
the dawn stretched upward, dissolving
the .shadowy mist that lmug over the
iirairio and the thin line of woodland
that lay away oir to the west like a
-fringe on a neatly-cut garment. The
fe Voun"- wifo inhaled the perfumes cx-
liakMffrom the llowcrs, tilling tho at
mosphere with rich odors. There were
lines upon lines of variegated tints
above tho horizon. Such a sunrise
Marx Hope had never looked on except
among the mountains. There were
jyniLs of crimson, amber and gold, and
above all white pillars rolled niajcstieal-
lv palaces more magnificent and stately
then any that the human mind could
conceive.
"How "rand! slio said, as .Dick
looked smilingly at her.
"The mind of man cannot measure
all its beauties," said Dick, as ho lighted
a cigar and settled himself down for
sonic solid enjoyment."
As the red and golden glories stretch
ed above the horizon, a light breeze
sprang up, fanning Mary Hope's cheeks,
caressing her hair lightly, and sighing
through the thin selvage of trees which
Dick's father had planted along the
roadway before his son was born. The
od of dav wheeled his chariot aloft,
ralj:iting,"as only the summer sun can,
the rarest tints of amber and crimson
and gold, until the purple glories,
rolling aloft like great billows, gradual
ly arclicd themselves into the semblance
of a gateway, through which Mary
Hone caught, in fancy, glimpses of the
Celestial Oil'. She did not speak, but
sat perfectly quiet, drinking in the
beauties of the most beautiful morning
Dick Hope had ever witnessed in the
West.
I "There is Pringle's Flat,?' said Dick,
suddenly, pointing ahead.
'Surciv we have rot come seven
ipiles.
, Dickf"
Scarcely. How fat is that ahead:"
Is it a mile, Dick?"
Dick laughed loudly: " It's nearer
four."
"1 don't understand it."
"That's what the smart hunters from
the East say when they shoot and miss
their rame. It's the atmosphere, Mary."
i"l?5a small place," said his wife,
as she looked forward to Primjle'sFlat,
Iytn a little below them. Beyond It
there was aribbon of molten gold, made 1
..j ..mv. uu o oi.tiiung ravs iauing upon
the river. "And that is the river."
"We'll be there iu twenty minutes,"
said Dick Hope, " when 1 want to in
troduce you to some of tho nicest peo
ple in this end of tho State."
The people Dick referred to received
tho young couple in a manner that made
Mary Hope's checks glow with gratifi
cation. Her husband was a man uni
versally admircd--as fine a specimen of
his kind as was ever produced west of
Pringle's Flat The bride, during the
two hours the' remained in the town,
created a Tipple of talk. There was
something about Dick and his wifo that
made peoplo turn to look at them.
When they drove away, a score of
friends waved good wishes and tossed
kisscfi after them.
" Now for Dan's Rock," said Dick, as
he gave his mare tho rein and east a
backward glance at Pringle's Flat
"Prctlv, isn't it?"
"Pretty!" said his wife. "Why,
Dick, it's lovely! Sec the light on the
church-windows; it looks as tliou'h it
were really on lire. The houses are si
prcttj', too, the streets so wide, and
there is such an air of peace and com
fort about it! Why, it is like a town
that has grown up In a night, it is so
wonderfully clean and ncaU-just what
a painter would make if he were paint
ing towns t please people."
.. i i...i 1:1. : pi.i i
J. 111 giaw uw jmu it. -iii.il lciumos
mn: do you sec that house above tho
church, to the left?"
"It looks charming the prettiest
house there."
"Clad von like it."
"Why Dick?'
" It's yours. I bought it before I
went Kast for you. We'll look inside
of it when we return, ' if we have
lime."
That was Diek Hope's vay.
The drive to Dan's Iloefc occupied an
hour. "Now for a tiial of your
.strength," said Diek, :U he lied his
hor.se to a tree at the base of the great
rojk and assisted his wifo to the ground
where they were to lunch-
"Must I climb up there, Dick?" said
M-.s. Hope.
"That's t'ie programme what wo
came out for to-day. You've heard so
much of the view from Dan's Hock that
you want to sec it for yourself. Do you
know you remind me iow of Parthenia
fetching water from the spring?"
" Parthenia tamed her husband, didn't
she, Dick? I'm glad your mother saved
me the trouble."
That was a lunch Mary Hope often
recalled in after-years. Dick persisted
in forcing all kinds of dainties upon
her, " Irish fashion," as she said after
ward. It was the first time she had
ever had him to herself iu the glad day
with no curious eyes to peer on them,
and she subjected her lord and master
in her turn to such stra'ts that he glad
ly cried quits as he put his hair out of
his eyes and viewed his tormentor.
Then they slowly mounted the mass
ive heap called Dan's Itock. Such a
view! A sweep of forty miles in one
direction, cast, and almost as grand a
view to tho west
Dick sat down and handed his wifo
the glasses as he lighted a fresh cigar:
"Do you see that hill away oil to the
left there?"
"Hasn't it a curious shape?"
"That's where the wind comes from.
They manufacture it up there."
"What do you mean, Dick?"
"There's a valley back there that ex
tends full fort' miles northwest, where
you come to prairie-laud like ours back
of Pringle's Flat, only there is ten times
more of it. The wind rolls down the
valley and plays the very deuce with
things on the river about the Point.
Sonfclinios it rains, and then you'd t lrnk
the heavens were emptying; all the
water in the valle' sweeps down below
us here, fills the valley where it narrows
there like the neck of a bottle, and then
look out for trouble. I saw it once;
that is all I want to sec."
"Is it so awful, Dick?"
"It is really awful, Mary."
"And now it looks like like the
plains of Egypt. I can't conceive of
anything disturbing the perfect peace
of this beautiful scene. See that cloud
away off there, Diek."
"About the size of a man's hand? 1
see it."
"It's the only speck in the sky," said
his wife.
"It's not like our sky, then," said
Dick, as he kissed her standing on the
very toj of Dan's Kock. "Do yon
know it is lime wc were moving now!"
"Wc have only been here a little
while."
"It is three hours since we stopped
at Iho foot of Dan's Kock."
"My goodness, Dick!"
"That's what I'm alwaj's saying to
myself when 1 think you look mo before
all the other fellows."
"It can't be."
"Look foryourself," said Dick, hold
ing out his watch.
"It's tho grandest day of my life,
Diek. I wouldn't have missed it for
anything."
lie gave her his hand and helped her
down tho rough places. Once in a
while Mary would stop to gather bils
of moss and flowers as mementos of a
red-letter day. At least an hour was
consumed in tho descent Then they
got into tho buggy and turned home
ward, but not oh the road leading past
Drake's.
"Wc want to see all that can be
seen, don't we?" said Dick!
"Hy all means," answered his wife,
as sho tied her hat loosely and pre
pared to enjoy the drive home. "Hut
didn't your father tell vott to go home
by Drake's?"
"The other is the better road."
"You know best, Dick."
"Dick's mare went at a slapping
pace. " She smells oats," said Dick."
" Look at Pringlc's Flat, Dick."
"Pretty, isn't it?"
"There is not a leaf stirring, ouc
would think. It looks so restful over
there! It might be a deserted village.'1
" It docs look unusually quiet, now 1
notice it Kiit then this sun is terrible.
See if j'ou can find our house over
There was a long silence, then the
3'oung wifo gleefully pointed out the
house, and there was auothcr long si
lence, which was broken by Mrs. Hope
saying suddenly, " What is that curious
sound I hear?"
"1 hear nothing."
"There! Do you hear it now?"
Dick inclined an car. The' were
fairly clear of the rough land at the
base of Dan's Rock now, and the mare
was trotting rapidly. Suddenly her
driver's firm hand brought her upon
her haunches. Dick listened intently.
His wife was right; her cars were
keener than his. There was something
in tho air.
At that instant Mary's hand clutched
his arm convulsively as she cried out
"Oh, Dick, what is that back of us?"
She was looking back with horror
stricken eyes and pale lips.
Dick turned. A cloud liko a black
wall was rushing down on them; it
seemed to Dick Hope's eyes as black as
ink. An awful fear possessed him.
There was a hush, a stillness in the air
as chilling as the terrible cloud behind
them. " Go 'long!" he exclaimed, des-
Eerately, cutting the mare fiercely with
is whip.
Tho mare shot out like an arrow, and
at that moment another sound smote
their ears a sound that was like the
crash of worlds. The maro plunged,
reared, then resumed her onward
course. Her owner had lost all con
trol of her.
But one thought animated Dick Hope
as he clasped his wife with his right
arm, while he held fast to the reins
with his left hand, shntting his teeth
like a vise. That thought was, " Pray
God we reach the river-bottom!"
Xhe earth groaned under their feet
A sound like the rush and roar aad
screams of a million locomotivci
ucaiencil them. Dick
etinclively turned and
young wife in his arms,
see the mare: hn saw
iicpo in-
claspcd his
He did not
nothing but
his wife's face, and somclhiPrAn it
struck terror to his heart His own
was as ashy gray at that moment as his
young wife's when she turned her last
appealing look upon himand moved her
bps. His one prayer was that they
might die together. It seemed to them
then that all tho souud in the air and
earth was condensed, gathered into one
awful shriek. Earth and sky were ob
literated. Dick Hope felt himself lifted
up and flung like a flake through tho
air.
When he recovered his senses he was
lying where he had prayed to be in
the river-bottom, with his wifo close be
side him. The awful storm did not
divide them. The tornado, like a rag
ing beast, had simply taken them up m
its teeth, so to speak, tossed them aside,
and pursued its path. Where they were
lying the water was so shoal that it
scarcely covered them.
Dick sat up and spoke to his wife, but
she cliil not auswer. Then ho put one
hand up involuntarily, in a weak, help
less way. There was blood on his face;
he could not see; his eyes were full of
sand. He struck himself in despair,
and, again grasping his wife, said in a
hoarse voice, "You are naUlcad, Mary?"
Whether it was the water from the
river lie ilnlicil iiiln liix fiei nr lliermuli
of tears that came into his eyes, Dick
docs not know to this day, but suddenly
his eyes became clear, and he could see
his wife lying with her laco next him
and tho water washing her long hair
over her breast Ho lifted her up. He
felt her hands, her checks. Then sud
denly he summoned all his remaining
strength for one supreme effort, and
dragged rather than carried her up to
tho dry shelving beach under the bluff.
Mary Hope slowly opened her eyas and
looked at her husband. Then she put
her hands slowly up to her face and cov
ered it.
Dick saw the tears coursing down
her cheeks. "U01CU- don't! Mary!"
he said.
"I can' t help it. 1 am not crying with
pain or grief; it's because you are liv
ingbecause we are both spared."
Dick's .strength returned to him. He
stood up and looked about him. Until
that moment he did not know that ho
was coatless and without vest or shirt:
ho was naked. He pressed his eyes
with his hands and looked down on him
self like one wakening out of a dream.
He looked at his wife, still sitting with
her face covered with her hands:
" Mary, we are almost naked. There is
nothing on me, and your dress is in rib
bons." He looked up and down tho
river in a helpless way. still pressing a
hand to his head: "I don't see-any
sign of the buggy or horse." Then
he cast his glance at tho bluff back of
them. "Come, let us go up on the
bank."
Ho had to carry her.
" It is the horrible fright, dear Diek.
I'll soon get over it," she said when he
set her down gently on the level ground.
"Mary, loo' over there. Do j'ou
see any tiling? My eyes are so full of
sand, so sore, that I can't make it out
quite. Everything looks blurred."
She did not answer him. It was not
because her eyes were not clear. As
she looked wondcringly, her hand, that
had never relinquished her husband's
from the moment he seated her on tho
prairie, elapsed his convulsively. Then
she uttered a loud cry.
"I- I expected as much," said Dick,
speaking more to hini5c!f than to his
wife. "Nothing nothing man ever
made could stand before thntslorin."
" Oh, Diek," she exclaimed, sobbing
ly, "there is nothing left of the town
not a house. I can only see a heap
here and there .something liko fallen
chimneys, and smoke and fire."
"That's the end of Pringle's Flat,
Mary."
He looked back over the prairie
back to the fringe of trees that skirted
a portion of the road near the base of
Dan's Rock but a little while since. He
could not recognize the place he had
looked 011 a hundred times. The trees
had disappeared; they had been swept
from tho face of theoirth. Then ho
shaded his eyes with his hand and looked
across to where Pringle's Flat had stood
iu all the pride of a new Western town.
Diek Hope suddenly knelt by his wifo's
side, still holding her hand, saying, "Let
us pray."
Among all those who witnessed the
awe-inspiring tornado that swept Prin
gle's Flat until not one stonestood upon
another, killing, maiming all living
creatures in its path, none havo such
vivid recollections as Dick Hopo and
his wife. When the' refer to their ex
perience on that terrible day, they speak
in a low tone, reverently, as though
standing in the presence of the dead.

The Spade iu (innlcning.
If a person has only a small garden
enclosed by a fence, as is generally the
case in citic? and village, a team and
a plow should never bo brought into it.
The reasons for excluding them arc
many. In the first place, tho horses
are likely to do considerable damage
to the shrubbery, bushes and vines. A
plow does not work to good advantage
on a small plat of ground surrounded
by a fence. It cannot turn all tho soil,
and that which is turned is left in b id
shape, ridges alternating with dead
furrows. Even under tho best circum
stances, as when very long furrows can
be turned, the plow is not tho equal of
the spade in preparing land for root
crops, which comprise the bulk of the
things raised in a small garden. When
one Tias lo-vs than a half acre of land to
till, ho should prcparo tho soil in the
best manner possible.
For prenanng small plats of land for
crops, there is no implement equal to
the snade. With it tho soil may bo
I loosened to a greater or less depth at
! will. With a spade tho manure that
I was thrown on the surface may be bu
I ricd out of sight and put in a position
'where it will not only decomposo
quickly, but be of tho greatest use to
'the plants it is intended to benefit
With tho spade for turning the soil,
there will be neither ridges nor de
pressions like those caused by the
plow. If there arc natural depressions
to be filled up and small elevations to
be leveled down, this work may be ac
complished with very little trouble
while the operation of spading is go
ing on. For preparing bills forsquash
cf cucumbers and melons; for digging
about the roots of trees, vines and
bushes, and for properly mixing the
dia'erent portions of the soil, there is no
implement equal to the spaslo.
For gardening purposes it is not best
to have all the soil prepared for plant-
W at one time, though this course is
desirable
when a plat of
grouno. is 10
be sown with grain or planted with one
crop throughout The period forplant
ing a garden in which a large variety
of vegetables aro to be raised extends
through six or eight weeks, and there
is economy of time in planting seeds
m freshly prepared soil. If land has
beeu plowed a month before it is
planted, it will be quite hard, while the
chances aro that the surface will be
covered with weeds. To get the soil
in a suitable condition to plant will call
for as much time and labor as would
required to prepare it had it never been
plowed. The spade in the hands of so
expert is not a difficult implement te
handle, and every gardener who expects
to reach the highest success should be
come an. expert in the use of the spade.

Farm Toils.
"A workman is known by his tools.
A fanner is a workman, and the infer
enco is plain enough. The criterion
consists both in tho selection of the
tools and in thecondition in which they
arc kept We live in a mechanical
age. in which hand-work has become
obsolete, and, without machinery, la
bor is only partly productive- Without
machinery to help him a farmer cannot
successfully comjctc with other indus
tries which are carried on by means of
mechanical appliances, nor "with thoo
of his brother farmers who use machin
ery. Already Eastern farmers feel tho
irksome competition of cheap products
raised on large Western farms by tho
use of sulky plows, sulky cultivators,
seed-sowers and planters and harvest
ers. And the Western farmers aro
sorely beset because of the cheap wheat
grown on the vast bonanza farms of tho
Northwest where farm machines may
be seen marshaled in array with mili
tary precision, and where division of
labor in their use Is made available to
the largest extent Division of labor is
one of those great industr'al Imvcis
which aro used to move tho social
world, and a farm machine is merely
an example of the dividing of the farm
labor among the hundreds of artisans
who mine the ore, smelt the iron, fash
ion it into plow-shares and lit it into tho
completed plow. All these men work
for and with the farmer to help him
plow and plant and reap and carry his
harvests to market Considered in this
light, the subject of farm machinery
may well be of the greatest interest to
a farmer, and iu considering it we may
find it useful lirs.t to take a cursor'
view of what mechanics are doing to
provide machinery for the farmer, the
profit of using machinery, and how it
should be Used.
The list of farm machinery provided
by the brains and hands of inventors
for farmers' use is a long one, if we
.ihould enumerate the whole. Of plows
alone we have a vast array, but of this
a large jortion has become obsolete.
It is a drawback to tho great advan
tages we enjoy that new iinurovcrneuts
are continually being made, and tho
plow of last year is displaced by one
of the present. Rut every good thing
has its dark side, ami the luscious
peach, even, has its large stone within
it which wc must throw away. Still,
we must consider if it is profitable to
keep an old tool at work rather than
cast it aside and purcha-e a new ami
better one. Usually this is not profit
able, and the saving in labor and tho
better work done with a new and im
proved tool may pay several times
over in 0110 season lor its cost and tho
loss on the discarded one. As regards
harrows, it may well be supposed that
before long these clumsy tools will bo
dispensed with, and tho soil will bo
prepareil and the sued sown and cov
ered at one operation. Rut until then
we may well bo satislied with the great
improvements made in these imple
ments. The object of the harrow is to
pulverize and mix the soil. To do this
in the best manner wo require an im
plement that will work tho surface and
not tear the manure, and the buried
sods and trash from below tho surface
and leave it on tho top to interfere
with the growing crojw and with har
vesting them. This object is attained
by the use of teeth which slope back
ward and pass over these obstructions,
burying them still deeper in the soil and
covering them with fresh mellow earth.
The profit in farm machinery consists
very much in the right use of it. It all
requires skill in the use and proper care
in the preservation. A large manu
facturer of farm machinery discovered
that it was to his interest to uso only
iron and steel in the machines he made,
because farmers, as a rule, left, their
machines exposed so much that they
were worn out, not by use, but by ex
posure, in three or four years. Un
fortunately he was right, for it is rarely
that farm machines are properly taken
care of, and, indeed, it is as raro that
they aro even used rightly. Cutting
edges arc not kept sharp, forgetting
that it is perfectly true that "if the iron
be blunt we mustputtoniorcstrength;"
thy bearings of machines.too.are rarely
oiled sufficiently or cleaned from dust.
And. to conic to a familiar instance, we
might ask how few farm wagons have
the axles kept well lubricated, and how
many squeak their protest against the
ill usage as they pass to and fro on the
road? Unnecessary wear and tear
destroy more machinery than its legiti
mate use. Tho same may be said too
often of tho owner, who too frequently
gives himself no better treatment than
he does his machines. Rut it is a poor
economy, and may be classed as one of
the greatest wastes of the farm, that
costly machinery is neither well used
nor as well taken care of as it might and
should be. Farmers should see to it
that their sons are made acquainted
with the principles of mechanics. They
may not bo able to spend a winter's
season in a mechanical school, but, if
possible, this should be a part of every
young farmer's education. But at least
they may bo provided with a good
mechaical iournal which is an excellent
educational help, and will.undoubtedly,
create a desire for further study of
mechanics and machinery. Hairy

to the flanks and the abdomen by means
of straw wisps, and repeat this at short
intervals. Lead the horo beside
another in a gentle trot, ten minutes at
a timo, every half hour, but not in a
gallop. If no other stimulant is at
hand, give ovcry half-hour, three
ounces of whisky in a pint of water;
otherwise give half an ounce caph of
fluid extract of belladonna and aromatic
spirits of ammonia and an ounce of
laudanum, in a pint of cold water. Give
as often blood-warm injections of soap
tnids, one to two quarts at a time. In
case there should be much flatulency
or bloating, give besides the above
mentioned laxative, a dose composed of
three drams of aqua ammonia in a pint
of cold water, every half hour, besides
abdominal friction, injections, and
walking exercise. When the symptoms
lessen in severity give every hour, until
all symptoms have disappeared, a dose
of half an ounce each of sweet spirits of
niter, tincture of gentian, and tincture
or ginger in a pint of water. After an
attack of colic the horse should not be
used for work that day or the following
twenty-four hours, and he should be feu
lightly on easily-digested food. Feeding
the horse continually a whole winter on
dry food, is wrong. On such feeding a
horse should have a bran mash at least
twice a week, and salt should be con
stantly placed within easy reach.

In some of the rural districts of
Italy a lover who wishes to make a dec
laration of his passion places rose leaves
before the door of the lady. If she re
jects him she sweeps them away; but
if she accepts him the rose leaves re
main. An ingenious Italian priest pro
poses that in parliamentary oratory
singing be substituted for speaking, and
if a man can't sing he must onlv gesticulate.

A well-laid stone, drain is equally
as good, is not better, than a tile drain.
The stone is imperishable, ami if well
laid will not be displaced and may last
for centuries. Some tiles may have
defects which may not be perceived,
and if one fails the whole drain fails.
In laying a stone dram, tho stones
should be packed very closely at tho
side of the ditch, so that the water can
not work behind them, ami the bottom
stones, laid in two rows, are covered
with flat pieces and the points broken.
If a foot of small stones is then laid on
the top and the earth packed well on
these, there is no reason why the drain
should not be permanent
Managing Turkeys.
Thero is small benefit derived from
keeping either too largo a number or
too great a variety of fowls on a limit
ed space. As spring approaches, tho
turkeys, ducks and geese, begin to feel
and manifest in divers ways the inspira
tion of the season. This is the period
when they require attention, food and
care. Turkeys should be kept quiet
and lame, and the d'sposilion to ram
ble governed as much as possible with
out resorting to force or confinement.
Turkeys should never be confined un
less it be for a few weeks when very
young. This disposition to ramble,
which conies on about the laving peri
od, may be greatly controlled by man
agement and gentleness. They are not
apt to like the society of other fowls,
but keep largely to themselves. They
should be given a run where the other
fowls arc excluded, particularly the
water fowls. Turkeys like high ground
and dry soil, secluded and quiet nooks
attract their attention, ami they are ex
ceedingly sly at nesting time. Some
hens are so particular that if the nest is
disturbed or the eggs taken out, even if
replaced by others, they forsake it en
tirely. The better way is to allow the
eggs to remain, if there is no danger of
frost or prowling vermin. The mother
will manage the eggs better, and a
larger percentage of them will hatch.
When tnis is not safe Ihe eggs should
be stolen away each day :u laid, and in
ferior or hen's eggs substituted as each
one is taken, keeping the number good.
In this manner the hen. is more likely
to sit.
Some young birds will not sit the
first season, but keep up continuous
laying, which is not profitable There
is no mother for young turkeys like the
natural one. Instincts leads them into
their natural belongings, and to seek the
food most beneficial. Often one hen
will rear two broods in a season, not
weaning the older one until the others
are out of the shell. A great mistake
that is frequently made with turkeys is
in keeping too many hem. Two are
sufficient for all nrdiuary purposes, ami
three at the outside. Where thero are
loo many they are apt to disagree, and
wander off in different directions. Thus
they form a habit of wandering, which
is quite natural. It is an ancient belief
that turkeys turn their eggs daily. They
do move tho eggs about with the
feet and beak, but whether it be in
tentional or not is not known. The
germ in the cp is always upper
most and in incubation receives the
first warmth a recognized fact that
the heat must come from aliove
although with the constant brooding
the nest is thoroughly wanned and re
tains it until the young leave it Tur
keys should nest on the ground, and
indeed any fowl docs bctttcr to sit on
the ground when the weather will ad
mit Tho moisture is highly beneficial
to the eggs while undergoing the pro
cess of incubation, keeping the shells
soft and tho skin moist so that the
young Jind no difficulty in escaping.
A turkey usually sits twenty-six days
in medium weather, and is a :tcady in
cubator, bringing out all the ci at
once. Tho hen should remain on the
nest without disturbance for the first
twenty-four hours. If a good mother,
she will take care of the empty shells,
usually tucking them around under the
tail. When necessity demands she
will lead the brood quietly from the
nest and if the weather be warm anil
without storms.snecccds well in rearing
the brood tinder her own management
Turkeys should not come off until tho
first week in June. Ry that time cold
storms are over and the air is mild.
Cor. Country Gentleman.
Why Raise Sheep!
Because it will pay. That is to say:
A farnfof a given size can be stocked
with sheep for less money than will be
required if cattle, horses or hogs are
employed. Sheep will come nearer
utilizing everything that grows on the
farm than either or all the above
named animals. Less labor will be
required for getting feed and stock to
gether. The returns will come in
sooner (except with hogs) and oftener
than from any other farm stock. Less
money is required for fencing and
shelter when these are supplied; and
less labor is involved in herding, where
outside pasture is accessible and pre
ferred. Add to these tne further fact
that a handsome income on the invest
ment can be had without the sale of the
animals themselves, and one has the
reasons why every farmer not excep
tionallv situated should have a flock ol
sheep "suited to his surroundings. -National

Some of the Nihilits, who are
known as " Federali'l-," hae drawn up
a scheme of reorganization which they 1
propose to bring forward after the tie
struetion of the pre-sent political regime i
According to this .scheme Russia would k
In." split up into a number of small free
State, which would only be connected
with each other by a Congress ami a
President, liko the United State of
North America. Small and self-governing
communal States are, they ray,
the primitive form of Russian political
life; it was only Ian the Tenible and
his successors who, with the help of the
Tartars, created the present centralized
and autocratic empire. Such a scheme
would, it is believed, find favor with
many mouthers l the cuiislituliou.il
party who feel tho difficulty of govern
ing ii nation of NMM) of people by
a single central Parliament, and also
with some of the. "old Russians," who
dream of establishing, iu opposition, to
the civilization of the West, an improwd
civilization based 011 the institutions of
ancient Russia.
The Swiss are not a little exercised
by the proportions which emigration
from their country is rapidly assuming.
The gathering of 1,0"0 emigrants in
Hasle the other day has excited com
ment, and wc are told that "almost
daily bauds of emigrants are passing
westwartl from the Fatherland. One
writer says that when an emigrant was
asked, "Are you, too, leaving us?" the
aiisworvas, "Yes; there is nothing for
me to do at home." This answer h:is
been made the text for leading article,
in which tho Federal Council i called
upon either to take measures to remove,
if possible, the cause of the emigration,
or at all events to guide it iu sueh a way
that the emigrant may not be entirely
lost to Switzerland.
