This stop- per when once fitted can always remain on the bellows. The 'circular piece, A, which closes the lower end of the smoker, need not be more than an eighth of an inch in thickness, and Bethe perforated partition, still thinner. A small hole tnuat be made in the centre of A, into which a small short, tube, some or three three inches in length, must be fitted. This short Labe, can be about an eighth of an inch in diameter where it joins the cir- cular piece A, but should be made tapering and much smaller at the open end, where the smoke escapes. If too large at this point thesmoke will escape too freely. This stopper A, and the small tube fitted to it, should be grazed instead of soldered to the large tube, for if the solder be used it will be pretty sere to melt and cause mis- chief. To use the smoke after it is completed get some cheap, strong plug tobacco. Cut and tear it into small -sized pieces, not too small, however, for in that case it will pack so closely in the instrument that the smoke will not escape. Fill the tube, pressing it in moderately until full to within about one-fourth of an inch of the end; then place a live hardwood coal of fire on the tobacco in the center of the smoker, so that it will receive the air from the bellows. When this has been done insert the stop- per firmly that has the bellows attached, holding the smoker perpendicularly iia the meantime pointed downward; work the bellows very gently, just enough to keep the coal alive and get the tobacco on fire. This should be attended to by the stove, in the house or stable office. It is not best to have any fire lying around loose in an open stall or stable where valuable animals are kept. Have the subject to be operated upon hitched in one corner ot a wide box stall or floor, so that the operator can pass in front, on each side and behind the animal. Let the colt smell of the instrument be- fore beginning to operate it. Begin at the shoulders and work up the neck toward the head. Place the end of the tube conduct- ing the smoke within an inch or two of the hair, and at each puff of the bellows move the point upwards so as to direct the smoke up into the roots of the hair. Lower the point of the tube after each puff of the bel- lows, and place it about a half-inch or an inch in front of the point where the begin - nine of the previous blast was directed, then press gently upon the bellows handles and elevate as before. By following this course every part of the animal will receive a puff of -the smoke, and every puff of the smoke will 'kill all the . Town and Country. We people who spend most of our thought and *nearly all of our time in try- ing to provide food for the working people —who in turn fiunishother things that we need—too often forget that the prosperity of our country depends not alone on the success of our farmers, but on the thrift and enterprise of those men who even make the buttons for the farmer's coats, the shirt for his back, the 'shoes for his feet, and all those other things which we have seen in process of „manufacture this morning. Yesterday I told a friend of mine that the population of Berlin was about six Bound to to be Forgiven. Gustave Dore had many faults, but none so large as not to deserve excuse when one remembers his tenderness of heart. He absolately would not and coald not keep up an enmity. Life was short, accord-ing to his loving theory, and only the foolish man could afford to spend it in bitterness. Blanchard Jerrold. was exceedingly angry with him at one time, because, after they had worked together on a volume of draw- ing and description!' relating to London, Dore publiahed a French edition of the book, in which Jerrold's text did not ap- pear. For a year the intitnaey of the two men ceaaed, and then, on Dore's annual visit to London, he suddenly appeared in his foerner friend's library, held out his hand, and said, "I couldn't leave without seeing you." He owned that he bad been in the wrong, and did not attempt to justify himself. The oaly thing he did insist upon was the fact that he could not live at enmity with one of whom be had once been fond, and, after long discussion, the two parted, on their old affectionate terms. Yet Darwes an irritable man, and one day actually quarelled with a friend on the subject of art. It was not long, however, before he rushed into the gentleman's house saying, " let us embrace each other. It is too stupid to querrel with friends. We will talk no more about paintings, but only of drawings. Then, you were perhaps in the right." "We hugged each other," said the friend in telling the story. "e had been the first to come back. Ile was a better man than I. Another friend, Albert Wolff, the critic, had written somewhat severely of Dore as a painter, and the latter, who was never content to be admired as a mere illustrator, felt the cut most keenly. The two had been friends for fifteen years, but thie.unfortunate criticism had parted them for five. Then one summer evening, they met, face to face, and it waa Dore who ad- vanced, with outstretched hand, saying," is it all ever ?" "As you please," was the cool reply. Dore hesitated. Then his bettor nature prevailed over his pride,and passing his arm within that of his friend, he said. "1 must talk with you. He telked and the other listened with the result of healing the breach between Potato Experiments. t the Maryland Experiment Station they tried four different methoda of seeding for potatoes, and found the results ,as fol- lows: Using a large potato to each hill they raised potatoes at the rate of 100 bushels upon 59.48 square rods, or about three-eighths of an acre. With a medium- sized potato in each hill it required 91.76 square rods; with the usual cut piece of two or three eyes, it required 119.20 square rods, and when only one eye was pnt in the hill it required 176.72 square rods, or over 1.1 acres. This would seem a convinc- ing argument in favor of the whole large potato seed, but probably much would de- pend upon the distance between the hills and the richness of the soil, or its ability to grow a hundred bushels on three-eighths of an acre. New England farmers, who per- haps have not such rich -soil, and plant closely in drills, think thatethey get better results from competstively light seeding. them. - - - A Trade for Boys. If I had my way I would insiet that every boy sheuld learn a trade, writes Foster Coates in the January Ls.dies' Home Jour- nal, It was so in the olden times, and it ahould be so now. The man who has a trade is a thouaaud times better equipped than the man who has none. Let every boy select the trade that best suits his ability, and promises the highest honors •and re- muneration. When he has mastered his trade, if be dislikes it or it is not profitable, he can begin to study a profession, or enter Upon a commercial life. If he should fail in both of these he is still master of a good trade—something that no one can take from hint no matter what exigencies 'nay arise. The IIIST1 Wig) is. master of a good trade is as independent eA a rnillionaire. He need never want ; he can find profitable employ- ment, in eny corner of the world. I do not say one word against a profes sional career. But I do say emphatically tha.t the man who has a trade and a profes- sion as well need have no fear of the future. The boy who wants to, can master a trade between the years of sixteen and twenty, and if he dislikes it, he still has time to study medicine, the law, or any other of the learned professions. But if he waits until he is twenty or over, he may not have an opportunity or feel inclined to learn either. 1M PORTANT NOTICES.

Principles of Home Dairying. For the man who loves the work and is willing to take all possible pains the home dairy is the proper thing. He vrill follow so far as practicable scientific teachings. In breeding his herds, which is the proper way, the greatest care will be made in selecting the sire. Gentleness also pays twofold, while regularity in care and feed- ing are indispensable. In regard to making the butter he should study the market to learn what kind has the moat call and then try to supply it. In all cases conditions alter his needs, but success or failure de- pends entirely upon himself. He will therefore strive all the more to achieve 1111C - COIL OTEL TO RENT. --To rent for a tern of years and on easy terms, that well-known and pop- ular hotel, known as the River House, Bdyfield.

It is a noticeable fact that just as soon as a man begins to idiprove his herd he also begins to improve his surroundings, gets out of the old ruts all along the line, begins to read agricultural literature, makes a closer study of nature, takes a different view of farm life as he sees it?' great possibilities opening before him; in fact, he has a new aim in life. If we can only get our young men and farmers' boys interested in the im- provement of our domestic animals and recognize the vast opportunity for both wealth and honor which lie before them in this bunch of industry we will soon cease to hear so much talk about our young men leaving the farm.
