~ PRUNE YOUR GRAPE VlNES—Per-sons-who neglected to prune their grape vines in the fall, which fruit growers concede to be-the proper seasom, should attend tq'lt the first pleasant day; and not wait till the sap besins to' flow, as then they would. “tleed” and be badly injured. In pruning grape vines, you are merely to put . the vines in good shiape, being careful to Save the most of the best canes of last year's growth, whiclr may be known from their reddish color. The ends of the canes saved may e cut off to suit your trellis space; and the side spurs . cut back to one bed, or as many as you please, according to the length of the spurs. A spur four-feet long, with eight to ten puds I should eut back to-two or three Buds; and the cut is to be niade several inches from the nearest bud. -As vou approach the end of the cane where the spurs are| shorter, one or liwo buds only should be left. Where vimes are laid down, and protected for the winter, of course no priuning can Le done till taken up; but I presume‘ihat no one, who is worthy of owning a grape vine, has laid down his'vines unpruned.

PAINT AND REPAIR YOUR IMPLExENTS.—No farmer should fail to put %is farm implements in good jorder Lefore work commiences in the spring. Somelpf ihem_.undoubt;edl y need painting; and others, perhaps, ‘are not in good repair, a brace being broken, or a Lolt or a nut missing. While you are 4t the blacksmith’s, an exchange suggests,” it would be well to get a few exira nats made for such implements as are liable to have them lost when in ms 2. You should also have duplicates of such parts jof your mowing machine as are most ‘liable to break. These can be »obtainbd of the maker; and if you never need them, you may consider yourself fortunate. Now is ihe time to attend to these matters. In regard te hoes, shovels, spades, etc., it is best to-have a surplus, to be used in case you want to employ extra help at any tirge. - It'is unpleasant for a neighbor to be called on to/lend a hoe, shovel, or &tfhet farm implement,when they can be bought for fifty cents to one dollar or so. Remember, too, that the best tools are the cheapest in

,H&w To MAKE A HOTBED.—A good hotbed may be made upon the surface of the ground, piling up the manure from, two feet six inches to three feet highjand at lea.st six‘inches wider all round than the frame. This extra width, says an experienced gardener, tends to preserve the heat within the frame;-and if it be a foot wider than th- frame, it would be better than six inches. The situation should be where the soil.is dry; andithe bed should front to the South, or as nearly South as the location will | permit. The sashes should either be procured 'before the bed is made, or their exact -size should be known when the frame is made; and the frame may be made to hook closely together, so asto be removed, and easily stored away when not in use. ,Q"resh horse dung is the ‘best ‘manure -to produce heat. It ‘should be thrown into a hedp and wet slightly, about .a week before it is placed onthe bed, and turned over omece »or twice before using it, to increase the heat. When put on the bed, tread it down firmly, and cover it about six inches deep with light, Fich soil, and ascertain the degree, of heat when you desire to sow your seeds, by planging a therimometer into the soil; and if too warm, wait a day or two. for the bed to cool. " Seeds will stand 2 heat of ninety degrees very well’ Sometimes seeds are sown. in pots and pans, which are plunged into the -manure without any covering of soil; but in such a case, it should be coveréd three or four' inches deep with sand or ashes to retain the heat. Wooden boxes six inches deep, made of very thin boards, about two feet Jong, and one foot wide, would be better than pans and pots for some kinds of plants. The bottoms might be of zine, or galvanized sheet jron, perforated with small holes to allow water ‘lo pass through thend, if the watering should betoo copious. Such boxes coyid be [ﬁ:&eﬂ in without any waste ©of room; ahd they could be easily rembved 1o fork up the bed anew to in crease the heat, or to allow a new bed to. be made, whem the heat of the old one is foo much exhausted. :

Ramsine CALves.—Like everything eise pertaining to a farm, raising caives requires good' judgment and experience. It is best always to leave -ihe calf with the cow several days, . matil the feveris out of the'bag and | the milk good for family use, and with proper management the calf can ~ be easily taught to drink milk at four wor five days old. It is important that the calf shoyld take its first sustenance from the cbw, to enable it to discharge | ke feetal putriment In’ its stomach ~ and bowels, and to give it strength | for its futare development. If a calf ~ s of no value to rear, or if the milk is . worth- more than the cost of feeding | four or five weeks for the butcher, it should be killed as soon as the milk ~ becomes good, but if it is to be raised it should have pure milk for about 10 days, when a little skimmed milk may be added to the unskimmed by degrees, . %l it may be fed entirely on skimmed “mailk. If has been shown by abund- " ant tests that calves will thrive .as - well on the poorest butter producing ' milk as on the best; comsequently, if a farmer has any cows which give -poor milk, that should be fed tocalves, - because it is not the cream that nourishes them 30 maeh 8 other properties of the milk. When four or five - milk It is good management to feed ~ ealves, in connection with their milk, - when sbont 10 days o, it cook- ~ spopaful of Indian oat or barley

meal, and cook it in a little water; then mix it with the milk, and increase the quantity of meal as the calves grow older. Flax seed boiled to a jelly and mixed with milk, when the calves are 10 days old, is good for them. It is poor policy to stint calves ‘which are worth raising, as their fu; ture development as good cows de‘pends in & great degreeon the manner in which they are treated when calyes. Let them be fed three times a day at regular hours, and as much as will satisfy them, and: in‘the end ‘their owners will never be losers by so dofng. Look at the poor, unsightly animals in the yards of farmers who half starve their ealvestosave a few cents, and we have occular demonstration of ‘what stinting calves in their feed will do. . When-calves are old enough to begin to.eat hay or grass, if confined in a stable or a yard,a little fine,sweet hay, of grass, should be placed within their reach. .It may be tied with a cord, and suspended where they can ‘nibble at it, and in a few weeks, when abo,ﬁt;‘four months old, they may be ‘turned out to pasture, still giving them a little meal and water once a day for a week! or two, They should have fresh water ‘in . their pasture, which should -produce an abundance of good grass; and they will go into winter quarters in fine condition.— Then, let them be fed on good, fine, sweet hay, with fodder corn, (sweet) cut and cured as soon as it begins to tassle; and a little meal of any kind, and when they are two or three years old, you will have stock that you will not be ashamed to have your neighbors see. - Even the milk that such cows will give, will be’ much more than if they were poorly fed when calves. There is no use in a farmer expecting to raise fine stock of any kind, unless he attends thoroughly- to their wants through all the stages of their growth. If he grows i good ‘crop of corn, it must be fed, and the weed exterminated —mno half -way work; and the same rule applies to his live stock. - .

Wonderful Gas-Jets. i While boring for oil two miles from Bradford, Pa., in the early part of October last, an immense vein of gas was struck at a depth of 810 feet, so strong as .to render’ further drilling impossible. - Running from the'well are two two-inch pipes, ‘attached to which are three gas-jets of the same size, the gas belching forth from these pipes. with such a terrific rush and noise as to render conversation, pitched in the ordinary tone, inaudible for fully one-fourth of a-mile away. . The blaze from each of “the three pipes is sent by the force of the gas to a height of from twenty-five to forty feet, the heat being so intense as to ‘melt the snow eutirely away for a distance of at least 100 feet, and also keeping the ground so'warm during all the’ cold weather of fhe winter that grass, strawberry vines, and other plants may grow; In many places, where the crowd{ of sight-seers have worn the ground, it is very dusty. The light is so strong that a newspaper may be read half a mile away. On very dark nights the illumination is grand. The light ‘has frequently been seen in Ocean, Salamanca and other towns twenty miles away.

Breathing Miasma Without Enjury.

There is no exaggeration in thestatement that thousands of persons residing frém one year’s end to another in fever and ague regions on this' continent or elsewhere, breathe air more or, less impregnated with miasma, without incurring the disease, simply and only because they are 1n the habit of using Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters as a preventive. It has frequently happeuned, and-the fact has been amply: attested by the parties themselves, that persons surrounded on all sides by neighbors suffering the tortures of this shivering and' burning plague, have enjoyed absolute immunity from it, thanks to the protection afforded vby the Bitters. Nor is that standard ‘anti-febrile’ cordial ®ess efficacious in remedying than in preventing chills and fever, billious remittents, and disorders of a kindred type. Taken be‘tween the paroxysms, it speedly mitigates their-violence,. and eventually prevents their recurrence. These facts, convineingly established by evidence, appeal with peculiar force to travelers and sojourners in malarious districts. ) . . \ 45-ow.

A Compliment to Judge Holman. The New York 77ribune says: “It is an ungracious task to pare down extravagances in appropriations, and Mr. W. S. Holman has got a great many more kicks than halfpence for his good work. He has often, we think, been unwise, but he has always been zealous; his efforts at economy always sprang from the best possible intentions, and they were in-the main productive of excellent results. To him more _than to any other one man the counfry is indebted to the saving of a great many millions of dollars during the last two years. To him, too, it is doubtless due that.the wretched Pacific Mail subsidy 'was again strangled after it has-stolen its way through the Senate. As there is at least a fair chance that this worthless concern may be bankrupt before next winter, we may reasonably hope that this is the last occasion to thank anybody for deliverance from its corrupt toils.”

Mr. Genung’s little five-year-old daughter, in company with a small brother, went into a field and built a fire, and playing around it, the daughter’s clothes took fire and soon wrapped her body in flames. The mother ran-to her relief and succeeded in extinguishing the flames, but' not until the child had.been terribly burned. Dr.. Theo. .Meurer was called in and did all that medical skill could suggest to alleviate the suffering of the little one, but death relieved -l%er from her torture. M =

* . WPretty Tolerably Mean. A Detroit doctor yesterday met an ex-patient of his on State street and called the man’s attention to the fact that he had a bill against him for medical services. ; v “Can’t pay,” replied the man. : “Do you want to pay?” sternly demaunded the physician. ot , “Of course I do, but I'd like a little time™ o = ; ‘ “How much ?” : -' ' “About twenty years.” - ' “I’ll sue this bill!” execlaimed the doctor: = ! :

“IHow mean am 1? Please state what grade of meanness you mean.”

«I mean,” said the doctor, as he got more color in. his ears, “I mean that you are'mean enough to pretend to die, so as to spite ﬁzoiur creditors and make your wife trpuble. You are mean enough to let them bury you in due form. Then, if| I came at night, dug you up and caql’ried your cadaver on my back for ajmile and a half, you'd be mean enough to come to life, pick my pockets, and' want me to hire you to fill up the grave again!” “Is that your candid opinion, doctor?” : : :

g The “‘Solid South” Cannot be Broken. . (Washington Cor| Philadelphia Times.)

| Mr. liamar says it is absurd to talk dividihg the ,Southern wing of the Democracy by the distribution of patronage. Ie thinks that a good many Democrats may get Federal positions, but says that very few of them will change their political faith. If any of them do they will at once lose all the following they ever had. Their apostacy will become apparent and they will become odious. - Mr. Reagan says that he would see his right‘arm wither at his side before he would go into Hayes’ Cabinet, and he has no fear that the President can -capture a corporal’s guard of Demoecrats with all the offices at his disposal. lofeli ' : Gen. Gordon says he would not take a place under Hayes, and would adyise no friend to do so; but ‘that he will recommend any application whose appointment would tend to elevate the civil service in the South. After the recognition of the Nicholls and Hampton governments, which he pronounces “as certain as that the sun will rige,” he thinks the reform of the Southern civil service the most important work before Hayes. When asked if he thought a j u%’jcious distribution of the patronage Swould demoralize the party, he laughed-and said, “The South is just as certain to ;give a solid vote against the crime that was consummated yesterday as the day of election comies.”

oe e e e Mrs. Molloy in Vermont.

Mrs Molloy, the Indiana temperance lecturer, addressed 1,200 people hers on the 28th, in a very powerful manner. Since she began speaking here the reform club has increased its membership 400, and now numbers. 1,000. Great excitement prevailed when J. 0: Livingstone, a prominent lawyer of Montpelier, came forward, adding his mame to the pledge and making a speech. Mrs. Molloy is perfectly at home, on the platform, and showed such.a preparation of her subject, and such armastery of her positions as to gain and hold thé undivided attention of her audience throughout the entire discourse. It is rare that we have the pleasure of listening to an orator who possesses such peculiar qualifications for public speaking. Her language comes so readily and is go appropriate and fitting that for some time one is hardly aware of the beauties of her style. - Hﬁr metaphors were brilliant, powerful and numerous, and what is more than all, she seems to feel every word she utters. Any such meagre report as our space will allow, would be but a parody on her magnificent effort, amd a rank injustice to her as well as t ourselves, She approached he sub ject from almost every| conceivable standpoint, and treated her theme with surprising logiec and power.—Montpelter Journal.

'Two Made One. : (From the Burlington Hawkeye.) | A woman out on North Hill, being counted out the other morning, after a debate on the question, “Who shall arisé and build the fire?” got up and split: her husband’s wooden leg into kindling wood, and broiled his steak with it. It made him so mad that he got hold of her false teeth and bit the dog with them. She cried until she had a fit of hysterics, and then fillipped out his glass eye, and climbed up‘on the bed-post and waxed the glaring eye to the ceiling with a quid #f chewing gum. Then he took her wisp of false’ hair and tied it to a stick, and began ; whitewashing the kitchen with it. - Then she started off to obtain a divoree, but Judge Newman decided that he couldn’t, grant a divorce. unless there were two partieg to the suit, and there was not enough left of them to make one. : -

Good Advice.

Now is the time of year for Pneumonia, Lung Fever, &e. Every family should have a bottle of BOSCHEE’S ' GERMAN SYRUP. Don’t allow for one moment that cough to take hold of #your child, your family or yourself. Consumption, Asthma, Pneumonia, Croup, Hemorrhages, and other fatal diseases may set in. Although it is true GERMAN SYRUP is curing thousands of theseé dreaded diseases, yet it is much better to have it at hand when three doses will cure you. One bottle will last your whole family a winter and ‘keep you safe from danger. If you are consumptive, do not rest until you have tried this remedy. Sample ‘bottles 10 cents. "Regular size 75 cts.

There is a new tide of emigrafion to Florida, both from the Q‘Ec:)rth and from abroad. Prominent 4 European capitalists have been negotiating for some time and at last successfully, with the land commissioners of the State for eight millions of dollars worth of orange lands. They intend to bring into the State two or three thousand hardy farmers from England, Germany, France and _ltaly. With that kind of a population and plermty of free schools the supremacy of the democratic party in Florida will be assured. ;

Simon Cameron’s’ national career began in 1845, when he was elected to the United States Senate by the Democrats, and the Republicans have thrice elected him to that office, beginning in 1857. He was Secretary of War under Lincoln during 1861, and first advocated the arming of the negro; and then being retired, under a vote of censure of Congress, he was apppinted minister to Russia. 'ln 1867 he again became a member of the Senate, and for five years he has been chairman of the Senate committ¢e on foreign affairs. \
