Whittling.
DT W. M. 7. BOUND.
' Dexterity with the jack- TAN is a
put of a boy's eduoationIoy's must
and will whittled' The Hot entot lad,
if he can get a bit of old iron hoop,
- will just as -merely fashion it into a
knifeand go to whittling a the Can
-
adieu boy, who saves his penin
jail to buy
*. "two -bladed," and out his fingers
before the .first polish of his knife is
worn off. A boy must have a knife,
and must whittle. No enera of mart
et boy should be wasted t so that it
becomes all directors and giaerdians of
yonth to turn the whittlinglpropensity
to good account. Tell the bey what to
whittle, how to whittle—Or he will
surely be aimlessly whittling a shingle,
hacking the furniture, or Carving his
name on fenees and benchesl.
Thejack knife is a simple tool, but
one with whit:1h someiexcellent work
may be done. By no nieane despicable
wood -carving may be done with it, and
it may be pressed into serVice for the
manufacture of numerous knick-knacks
worthy of thought. . '
In the first piece, have a good jackknifee Not one of the flimsy little
uknifes, hut a right down substantial
e with one big and one little blade.
A smooth handle with rounded ends
should be chosen because it will fit the
hand better, and will not wear out the
pockets. Keep the knife always sharp
—first by having it well ground, and
afterwards by frequent application to a
moderately rough oil -stone. Don't by
any means, get one of those oomplicated
and useless knives that combine in one
handle a gimlet, cork-screwe file, saw,
and a score more of useless but curious
additions.
Having the knife, boys, don't whittle
aintleasly. Yon can learn to make
long, firm, straight outs jest as well
in making an arrow as in shaving up a
shingle.
Well, what shall I make? the boy
asks; Let me suggest a few articles.
Paper-catters, in the shape of daggers,
of hard wood, and with handles, carved
in some simple design. Finish them
smoothlyin every part, rub them down
with painters" oil till they fre polished,
and you could hardly hate: anything
better to give to father
Then for the little broth
nothing better to make tha
arrows. A good stick of a
or mother.
r there is
a bow and
h is easily
faithioned into a bow*, and an arrow of
pine with heavy head. and light body
iit easily made. Or a crosiabow, with
stock of black walnut and bow of ash,
With a trigger of walnut and a good
olosely-twisted string to drew it with,
is an implement which. 4y be used
with singular effect to train the eye at
_ shooting at a mark. Or go out into the
woods and find long shootof hicttory
sr holly; out them with tie big root
,knots left on, trim off t e branches
smoothly, and, taking advantage of the
natural lines of the toot, make a han-
dle by carving A into a More perfect
resemblance of the grotesque head it
is almost iiill'O to look like in the rough.
You have only then to hang it up to
season, rub it down and varnish it, add
a ferule, and you have a OfkO.8 that will
be prized more than an you could
buy in the shops. Then there are boats
to be made, a tow -boat fot Johnny, all
_ complete, with dainty oar a and seats;
or a sail -boat, rigged, for Sammy, with
his /monogram painted on- the sail.
The boys can try them. in the bath -tub,
and then lay them away to have fun
with next summer.
Something, and quite a good deal,
may be done with the jack-knife in the
way of woodcarving. A simple fiat
pattern on &panel of soft wood may be
traced out with considerable nicety by a
-clever boy. Don't have the pattern too
elaborate. It is a knack esaily acquired
to eut smoothly and of even depth, and
no good results can be had until it is
acquired. Then haying the pattein all
outlined—a spray of oak leaves, or a
qoaint dragon or other grotesque mon-
ster from some Japanese design—and a,
groove gut all around it, yeu have only
to remove the wood all round the pat-
tern, and you have & carving in Iow
relief. Perhaps you , have left you/
ground a little irregutar—spaooth it all
you can—aiiel then with a sharpened
nail make little indentations all over it.
Rub some coloring into the ground,
leaving the design in the natural color
of the wood, or gikt it with gold paint,
and you have a panel that will surprise
you. /It can be made the front of a
paper -rack to hang on _the wall, or, if
small, the end of a book -rack to put on
the table or it can be put on the'front
of a box, used anywhere, in fact, where
graceful ornamentation is better than
plain surface.
And don't forget the useful things that
can be fashioned with the jack-knife.
The butter -paddle of hard wood, wooden
spoons,. and salad spoons and forks. I
saw the other day a wooden spoon so
well carved out that I coutd hardly be-
lieve it vaas,the work of a ochooleboy.
He had taken a common wooden spoon,
such as is sold in the shops for three
cents, and carved a fanciftil design all
round the handle, and left a monogram
in relief upon the front of it. The
mother who showed it to me was quite
proud of it, I can assure you—as well
she might be. It came to the dinner
table with the dessert, and was used to
dip nuts out of a wdoden bowl that had
also been carved and otnamented by
another member of the family.
But I only suggest whittling—not the
- hundred and one things that can be
made by a skilful whittler. Let every-
body who has a jack-knife IWO it to
_ 801118 purpose. If anybody should say,
"nothing eau be made with's() simple a
tool," --let me refer such e one to the
nearest museum where So' th Sea Island
it
curiosities are kept. Lo at the °ela-
borately carved war cla Et, and canoe
paddles, and spoons,and cocoanut drink-
ing cups; they are simplY wonderful—
and were all wrought out with a knife
so roughly made that a "second-best"
Yankee jack-knife woald be worth ten
of it—yes, a hundred.
to admit sunshine and a free circulation
of air. They are fed on the ground with
ear oorn, sometimes old, that is, of last
year, and soinetitnes new. Jerked from
the field with half the husks still on.
Many of these husks are afterwards
cellected by the bogs at different places,
usually; under the trees, and used by
them for bedding To prevent these
beds becoming foul, a one horse rake is
driven through the ground every day to
collect the cobs and husks, and these
are then burned on the bedding places
with the htisks gathered there by the
hogs. The smoke and. ashes, as well as
the charred cobs made by these burn-
ing, are believed to be conducive to
the health of the lusty porkers. They
certainly tend to prevent the accumula-
tion of vermin and te promote cleanli-
ness.
"Besides the corn fed to the hogs,
they have access at all times to well
supplied swill troughs. The lines of
-goers and 0017128r8 ti and from these are
kept up almost constautly. Even dur-
ing the night they are visited by many
that are too play to come by day. The
swill is made of rye meal chiefly.. To
about fifteen hundred -weight of rye
meal is added one hundred -weight of oil
meal, and the whole made into swill, in
large tanks, with cold water, and allow-
ed to become silghtly sour before being
fed. .Arra,ogereents are now in pro -
gess for using hot water and steaming
the meal. This, it is thought mill be
an improvement as cold weather comes
on.
"The troughs from which the swill is
fed are arranged with slats on each side,
the lower elide being nailed to the upper
edge of the trough, and the upper ends
to a long strip running the length of the
trough, about fourteen inches above and
directly over the middle. These elate
are not placed opposite to each other,
but are made to alternate. In this way
no two hogs can face each other when
from opposite sides. This arrangement
of the slats seems completely to prevent
the hogs from getting into the troughs
with their feet, and also affords each a
fair chance to feed without being crowd-
ed by his neighbor.
"In addition to the corn and swill
given thermthese hogs are turned into
a. meadow of about 100 acres every
morning, where they are allowed to re-
main until about 10 a. n. Here they .
get another thange of feed -..and such
exercise as seems needful for them.
"A more healthy and well -doing lot
of hogs than these one seldom sees.
They are picked over from time to time,
and such taken out for shipment as are
deemed at their best. They usually
average, when shipped, about 235 pounds
each, in carload lots. As ripe hogs are
taken out othere are being put in.
When new ones are bought they are put
in a separate enclOsure for about two
weeks before being turned in' with the
large herd: Thiele done as a precau-
tion against -the introduction of disease
from outside herds.
" Most of the hogs here are black, or
nearly so. The proprietors are very de-
cided in their preference for Berkshires
and their crossesThey find them to
fatten and roundup more evenly than
others. Essex, they say, are too small,
and Poland Chinas are too coarse.
White hogs they disparage altogether,
although a few, perhaps two per cent.,
may be found among those being fed.
"Tho managethent here described
seems to supply &J. needed conditions to
success. It .is practicable, and appal--
sntly as economical as any thatcould be
devised. The reniarkably fine weather
for the past two Months has rendered
needless all expense for shelter. Be-
sides the saving ie this respect, the ex-
cellent health and thrift of the hogs,
has, no doubt, been largely due to their
freedom from the restraints and evils
ahnost unavoidable when they are
housed in bad weather."

An Angry Tre
A gentleman of this place ia� J a tree
which is a species of acacia. , It was
grown from a seed brought from Aus-
tralia. The tree is now a saPiiag some
eight feet in height, and it is in full
foliage and growing rapidly. , It is
leguminous, and -very'distinetly shows
the characteristics of the mimosa, or
sensitive plant. Regularly every even-
ing about the time the "chitikens go to
roost," the tree goes to roost. The
leaves fold themsel ves together, and the
ends of the tender twigs coil themselves
up like the tail of a wellronditioned
pig.
After one of the twigslhas been stroked
or handled, the leaves move uneasily,
and are in a sort of mild oommotion
for a minute or more. Al! ilia was
known about the tree, but it wee only
lately that it was discovered that
the tree had in it more life and feeling
thanit had ever _before bean credited
with. Thetree being in qupe a small
pot, one Which it was fast ontgrowing,it
was thought best to give it One of much
larger size. In the afternoon the
tree.was transferred to its new quarters,
It resented the Operation of its removal
to the best of its ability.
Arriving at his residence 'about the
time the tree had been thtneplanted,the
gentleman. found the libuse in grand
commotion. On asking what was up
he was told that they had transplanted
the tree according to order, and the
operation had made it very mad.
Hardly bad it been placed in its new
quarters before the leavebegan to
stand up in all directione like the hair
on the tail of an angry mit, and soon the
whole plant was in , a quiver. This
could have been endured, but at the
same time it gave out at odor most re-
pugnant and sickening ---- jpst such a
smell as is given off by rattlesnakes in
summer when teased. This odor so
filled the house and was go sickenieg
that it was found necessary to open the
doors and windows. It was fully an
hour before the plant calmed down and
folded its leaves in peage. 1 It would.
probably not have given up the fight
even then had it not been that its time
for going to roost had arrived.—Virginia

BOW & PROUDP
or, &c., Goderieh,
The Detroit Poet of last week says :
A man giving the name of Charles
King, lately of Kingston Penitentiary,
who had served fie years, arrived in
Detroit a short One since. A week
ago Saturday evening King chanced
into a saloon. He was standing facing
the bar when the door opened. 'King
turned round wad; stood face to face
with a man he I had been anxiously
looking for. Without uttering a word
he quickly drew a pistol. He' was an-
ticipated by the new arrival, who also
produced a revolver. Ring, however,
was the first to fire, the ball passing
through the shutter and a pane of
glass. The new arrival did not fire,but
ran out M the saloon into an adjoining
Office. King fired as he retreated, the
ball passing through the partition. Then
a general fusilade commenced, one ball
passing through the left arm of the
stranger. The latter crouched behind
a stove. The next shot flattened against
a safe. Driven from there the stranger
started io run behind the office desk,
and was again winged in the left "arm."
Another ball entered the stranger's left
breast in the region of the heart. By
this time the latter had crawled behind
the counter for refuge, and. lay there
bleeding,while King remained unharm-
ed.—The encounter was of short dura-
tion andKing was preventedfrom killing
the stranger only by the intervention of
the proprietor of the place, who was
assisted by guests, and he was induced
to leave the place. The stranger was
then carried out from behind the coun-
ter, and a physician summoned wno
dressed the wounds, which bled freely.
The proprietor permitted the stranger
to remain there over night. Next day,
Sunday, he was placed ip a hack and
taken to an empty house in Windsor,
where he was fed and nursed be friends.
Saturday night a colored man called at
the house osteneibly to make enquiry,
but really to see what was going on. He
was a Windsor officer blackened for the
occasion. He was ejected from the
premises by some men present, and a
short time after the wounded man and
his friends secretly left the place, and
have not been seen since. Where they
are now remain e a mystery. The name
of the wounded, man is James Murphy.
He is a thief and and a member of a
gang of burglars who have been infest-
ing Detroit for some week's past. It is
charged by King that upwards of five
years ago Murphy "gave him away" to
the Canadian !authorities, the result
being that 'King was convicted and
sentenced to five years at Kingston. He
hadtaken a vow that if he survived his
imprisonment he would seek Murphy
and kill him, said he.'would have ful-
filled his deadly purpose the night in
question, if it hid not been prevented.
Az it was, Mur hy had a narrow escape
from death. For several days it was
feared he would die,but at last accounts
