Joiners' gqiarfnunt Cultivation of Clover. SoKna Clovemceil. If yoa have not sowo cloverseed upon your wheut fields you may do so ut any period tiunos tbe current montli lut if wu itad our choice as t the precise timo when wo would do to we should wait Ubtil the frost was entirely out of the ground and tho soil become sufficiently firm not to be injured by the feet of the horses. We would then sow oar clovcreeed, harrow the seed lightly iu with a light barrow, und then roll Iha field with a heavy roller. Especially would we suhject the ground to these opera tions if tho wheat crop bIiowoJ any evidence of having been upheaved by the contracting nni expanding powers of frost and heat. We aro aware that great horror is entertained of pulling the wheat plants out of the ground by the teeth of tho harrow. In this horror, Lowcver, wo nra fixo to confess that we co not indulge. The harrow wo admit will pull up many wheat plants in tho process of bar-' rowiug i but theu most of these will bo ro turned by tha pr?euro of the roller. The roller will not only return tho greatest por tion of tho roots to tha earth that may be pulled up by the harrow, but will also bury ouuy of the juiuts of tho plants, the most of which will take root and grow into wheat bearing plants, ur.d thus, by encouraging tillering, will more t!i-n compensate for any plants killed by tho operation of harrowing. Wo believe that for every phut pulled up by the harrow, tho roller, by tho btiryiDg of the joints, will cao two othor plants to tiller end grow. This i not nil. Tho harrowing destroys grass and weeds, opens tho eoil to tho gonial influences of the atmosphere, acts as a cultivation to tho wheat plants and gives a frosh impulse to their growth. These aro not ideal results not mere theory but are justified by actual esperimca and practice, tbe surest guides by which the agricultural tninj can bo enlightened. Let us implore you, whether yoa harrow ar!d roll your cloverseed in or not, do not omit to sow the seed on yonr land in wheat, as clover, in conjunction with lime, marl or ashes, forms the only snre basis npon which the solid improvement of lands rest. Now, if yoa should bo afruid to harrow and roll your cloverseed on, do not on any acconnt fail to roll it in. In connection with tho sowing of clover seed, we would remark that the presence of caluarcons matter in some form, In any soil in which clover may bo grown, is absolutely nccoes'iry to its vigorous growth, and to also is plaster. Quantity of Sfed Per Acre. A basbel e-f cloverseed should be sown over five acres cf land ; that is, 12 lbs. to the acre. Ccttino Gp.rrs. Scions for grafting can be cut at any time during the winterer spring and if properly preserved aro in a bolter condition then when permitted to remain cq the parent true until the buda hiive begun le twell. If eat when tho ground is frozen they can be preserved in tho cellar in sand slightly moistend occasionally; or, if the p round ()0 nut frozen, they can bo stuck two or three inches into tho soil, and Uft there in perfect safety until tieedud. Wo find it to be a good plan to stick the scions in the ground at the bot tom of the treo from which they are taken, by which tho name is safely rehtiued. We have never found that cold weather following tho catting rf scions and partially covering tiieri with earth to be the least detriment to them. A Cheap Soap. Tho following ia a good way for making cheap soap : Kight quarts of soft water; 4 ponr.ds bnr loap ; 2 poundi cal soda ; 3 ounces borax ; 1 oanca liquid ammonia. Out the soap into sli ce., and put it iuto water over a fire. When the water is hot and tbe soap nenrly dissolved put in the sal toda and borax. Stir it gently until all is dissolved ; then pour it into a tub, and when nearly cool stir in tbe ammonia gradually. Let it remain until quite cold, when it can be cut icto bars and luid awuy like common bard toap. This, soap makes etcellent suds, costs less than three cents a pound. The time required to make it is but a fow moments.

The undersigned, members of the committee, do respectlully report, that we saw the two Safes originally agreed upon by Farrels & Herring and Lvans & W atson, placed side by sido in a fur nace, viz: Tho Safe inuso by the Paymaster ot the Philadelphia and Heading Hatlroad Compa ny, in his office at Reading, manufactured by Parrels & Herring, and the afe in use hy H.

M.,snd kept a i until four cords of green hickory, two cords dry oak and half chesnut top wood were entirely consumed, the whole under the euperiii teudence of the subscribers, members of the Com mittee. The Safes were then cooled ofl" with water, after which they were opened, and the books anu papers taken out by tbe Committee and sent to li.
