farm, garden & SousfttoM, TENANTSAND RENTING. It must be evident that the present system of renting in this country is radically wrong. The practice of tenants generally appears to be to get the largest crops off the land with the least outlay. The consequence is, that the lan 1 they till is skinned and robbed of its fertility without any return in the shape of inauure. There are in fact men who live in this manner, who rent old places already worn out, and then pursue a systematic course of robbing, by ploughing a great deal of ground, manuring none, sowing no grass seed, and lastly sowing impoverishing crops , such as oats, buckwheat aud the like, immediately following a crop of corn. Of course no soil can bear for any length of time with treat ment like this. When it is thoroughly done for they can move away and try the plan somewhere else. In England the practice is very different. The tenantry generally occupy farms for a long period of time, and it is therefore to their interest to keep the soil in the highest slate of cultivation, raising crops which appear astonishing to us. It is evident that this is sound policy to pursue. There isanother fact to be considered. We hear the constant complaint from tenants that the present rates of rent are entirely too high, and that it is impossible for them to make more thau a living. So long as this system of changing abont so frequently continuesf this will remain to be the case ; but reiy upon it, so soon as our ren ters begin to/arm and manure as iftheland was their owa, we will note a new state of affairs. They can afford to pay much liigherrcnts and yet grow rich. It would be an advantage to all concerned. FINES AGIUCOI.B. RKMARKS. —This reform will never take place, however, until landlords arc willing to do something too, instead of expecting every thing from the tenant. The usual term of renting in England is nineteen years, but farms are frequently continued in the same family for generations, who become sometimes inde pendent in their circumstances. Will any landlord here rent for snch a period, or for ten years? Hardly. Still tenants, as a rule here, will use up a farm in short order, during the few years, if more than one, they will consent or are permitted to remain. The whole system is defective, and will never grow better nr.til landlords shallunite insoma decided reform.—[En. Germantown Tele graph. MAKETRG HOMESTEADATTBA4TIVE. It need not cost much money to adorn the place one lives in. Begin by digging out the briers and thistles of the door yard. Plant a few trees ; then add a few flowering shrubs. Perhaps that will answer forone year. Next year, make a gravel walk or two, and set a few flowering plants by their sides. Your wife and daughter will sow some flower seeds, ifyoS will only prepare a neat border forthem And these labors, so rewarding, will lead on to others. The fenses and buildings will be kept in repair. Trees will be set out along the roadside. The house will have window blinds, the rooms will be provided, and books and papers will not be missing. All these things will be regulated according to one's ability. And as a general rule, whatever our means, it is better to make improvements by degrees, from year to year, than to do them all up at once, ''by the job." Be assured this is the way to find the most happiness in home adorning. And remember, the indu rence of such an improvement does not end with the individual family. They tell silent ly, but with great effect, upon society. Eve ry neighbor and every passer by feels them, and many are led by such examples to go themselves and do likewise. SCRATCHES IN HORSES. A correspondent of the last New England Farmer thus refers to "bright varnish" as a cure for cuts, wounds, and especially scratch es in horses: "When I worked at my trade in the city, I had occasion to use different kinds of paints and oils ; among them was what is called 'bright varnish.' Frequently I would cut my self, sometimes so severely that I have been laid up for weeks. I would try all kinds of salve, bat the wound would be a long time healing. One day I cut my hand severely, and as I had nothing at hand to put on it I thought I would try some of the bright varn ish; as it is a sticky substance, I thought it might stick the wound together; accordingly I bound up my hand with it and kept on at work; the varnish relieved the pain, I had no soreness in the wound, and in one week it j was entirely healed. My son was sawing through a board one day, and carelessly put his hand under the board. He had his fore finger bone entirely sawed off. I putthe ends together, put on the varnish and bound it up. The result was, that after one week the band was removed, and the finger had nearly grown together. My horse once had scratches so badly that it was difficult to get him to move about. I rubbed the parts effected with this varnish for two days, which caused a perfect ! cure. The varnish can be bought at the paint shops for six or eight cents per quart. How TO MJLKE GLOSSY SHIRT BOSOMS.— Take Iwo ounces of fine white gum arabic powder, put it into a pitcher, and pour on it a pint or more of boiling water, according to the degree of strength you desire; then, after having covered it, let it stand all night, and in the morning pour it carefully from the dregs into a clean bottle, cork it up and keep it for use. A tablespoonful of the gum water stir red in a pint of starch, made in the usual manner, will give to lawns and shirt bosoms, whether the former be white or printed, a look of newness when nothing else can restore them after they have been washed. GOOD MANURE GOING TO THE WIN IMS. A subscriber in Tioga Co., N. Y. has a compost heap—a mixture of "fleshings of hides, hair, lime ashes, weeds, chip manure, etc., really everything." It was pliedup in a conical heap, and he recently found it "dry and very hot," and being burned up. He wants to know what is to be done. Simply work it all over, making a new pile and mingling it with at least its own bulk of muck or peat, or sods and parings of turf, or simple soil. This will stay the destruction in a measure. The mistake was in the original mixture. There probably ought to have been a greater propor tion of vegetable matter, weeds, chip manure, etc., but there ought not to have been any lime or ashes mixed with the fleshings, hair, and other animai matters. When iime and animal matter are mixed, as in some of the refuse of tanneries, the influence of the lime must be counteracted as far as possible, by the addition of muck, soil, etc. Ihe delete rious action of lime and alkalies in such a heap is to expel the ammonia in gaseous form, which is hopelessly lost. A loss just of the same character takes place whenever manure heats and burns. — American Agriculturist. 1)UBLIC SALE OF Valuale ReaJ Estate.
