A GREAT FAKtIEK'S MAXIMS.
We have already made a notice of a dis
course by Rev. L. M. Glover, D. D., Jack
sonville, 111., on the death of Mr. Jacob
Straw n. who was spoken of as ''The Great
American Farmer," and who died at Jackson
ville, 111., in August last. His biographer
has recorded many excellent characteristics
of this "distinguished farmer," who has met
with great sucsess in all his business opera
tions, which is attributable chiefly to the fol
lowing maxims, which we copy for the bene
fit of those formers who are somewhat tardy
in performing the operations of the farm.
"When you wake up do net roll over, but
roll out. It will give you time to ditch all
your sloughs, break them up, harrow them",
and sow them with timothy and red clover.
One bushel clover to two bushels timothy is
enough.
"Make your fence high, tight, and strong,
so that it will keep cattle and pigs out. If
you have brush, make your lots secure, and
keep your hogs from the cattle, for if the
corn is clean they will eat it better than if it
is not.
"Be sure to get your hands to bed by seven
o'clock; they will rise early by the force of
circumstances.
"Pay a hand, if he is a poor hand, all you
promise him; if he is a good hand, pay him a
little more; it will enconrage him to do still
better.
"Always feed yonr bands as well as you
do yourself, for the laboring men are the
bono and sinew of the world, and ought to be
well treated.
"I am satisfied that getting up early, in
dustry, and regular habits are the best medi
cines ever prescribed for health.
"When it comes rainy, bad weather, so that
you cannot work out of doors, cut and split
yonr wood.
Make your tracks when it rains hard, clean
ing your stables, or fixing something which
you would have to stop the plow for and fix
in good weather.
"Make your tracks, fixing your fence or a
gate that is off the hinges, or weatherboard
ing your barn where the wind has blown off
the siding, or patching the roof of your house
or barn.
"Study your interests closely, and don't
spend any time in electing Presidents, Sena
tors, and other small officers, or talk of bard
times when spending your time in town whit
tling on store boxes, etc.
"Take yoar time and make your calcula
tions; don't do things in a hurry, but do them
at the right time, and keep your mind as tcell
as your body employed.' ! •
MANURING IN LATE AUTUMN.
In November, however, after a few cold
nights, nature has provided the farmer with
something nearly equal to the plank road or
a continuous railway over his farm, upou
which he can convey his heavy articles with
comparative ease. He can now move on with
large loads without straining or discouraging
his team, or putting his own shoulder to the
wheel, or mutilating the fair fields which he
had laid down at much cost and care.
The question whether manure is more ef
ficient in the soil, placed there in the fall,
than when deposited there in the spring, is
one that requires some investigation and per
haps experiments. Uncovered manure is
always losing some portion of its valuable
properties, so long as it remains in that posi
tion; they may be slight where it is in the
cellar or in large quantities together; but even
then there is a constant loss. If all the drop
pings of the stock, —both solid and liquid,—
could be at once mingled with the soil upon
which crops are to be placed, we are of the
opinion that it would be more effective than
it is as usually applied. This course, how
ever, cannot be adopted with any economy.
But, generally, all the manure that is accu
mulated during the summer can be applied to
the soil and plowed under in the fall. Where
this is done, and the land is again plowed in
the spring, we have found the best seed beds
and the most abundand crops that we have
ever seen. On turning it over in April or
May, the soil was very dark, almost black,
and remarkably fine and light. The manure
seemed to have had a wonderful effect upon
it, not only in increasing it by its own bulk,
but in throwing it up, somewhat as yeast
raises the dough for making bread. —New
England Farmer.
LABOR SAVING—LABOR BAKING.
Labor saving implements were once thotght
to be destructive to the interests of the work
ing man, just in proportion as they saved the
drudgery of labor; This seems reasonabe at
first, but a little thought will correct the er
ror. How then do the farm laborers, thrown
out of work by the introduction of improved
implements, ultimately find work? Plainly
by the increased amount of tillage which
horse power, machinery and tools pos
sible in the country. In a section where all
he soil is under cultivation of Some kind, it
will lead to more thorough system of farming.
In the case of our own country; it leads to the
faster extension of civilization westward, the
rapid subjugation of wild lands, and the
ter better cultivation of that already under
the plow. For instance, the Western grain
grower, who now devotes 75 to 160 acres to
corn and other grain crops, with the meager
facilities of thirty years ago, could not have
managed one-fourth part that amount in a
similar manner. This increase of agriculture,
not only keeps good the orig nal number of
farm laborers, but creates a new demand for
laborers in every other field of industry.
More ships and railroads are required for
transportation, more manufacturing establish
ments, more mechanics to construct these,
and men to manage them, more miners, ma
chinists, etc. In fact, the whole body politic
thus receives vital refreshment from every
really labor-saving invention. This is a for
cible illustration of the fact that whatever
fairly advances the interests of one class, be
comes a benefit to all classes in the commu
nity.
PASTIRIXti KEADOVB,
It is not an uncommon practice with many
farmers to turn their cattle or sheep on the
meadows after the hay crop has been remov
ed, and allow them to pasture there until
winter. In seasons very favorable to the
growth of grass, it may not be injurious to al
low a portion of the after-growth to be eaten
off, but in diy seasons the result is ball, and
so in all cades where the growth is kept down
thronghont the season. Where the grass is
cut down clo to the ground, the roots will
be severely ta to furnish a second growth
and the farmer fan much better afford to feed
his cattle grass from the soiling patch, or
roots, than to have his next year's crop of
hay injured by over-pasturing the meadows
just mown. A top dressing of some well pre
pared manure will generally produce very per
ceptible results, and may be profitably nsed,
especially on spots where the grass baa been
rather light. Western Rural.

AND
Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine (Tory}
The American Publishers eonlinue to reprint the
above-named periodicals, but as the coat of printing
has doubled and the price of paper nearly trebled,
they are compelled to advance their terms as fol
lows :
per annum.
For any One of the Reviewa $-1.00
For any two-of the Reviews. 7.00 "
For aly three of the Reviews 10.00 "
For all four of the Reviewa 12.00 "
For Blackwood's Magazine 4.00 "
For Blackwood and any one Review... 7.00 "
For Blackwood and two of the Reviews 10.00 "
For Blackwood and three of the Reviews 13.00 "
For Blackwood and the four Reviews.— 15.00 "
These works will be printed on greatly im
proved quality of paper, and while nearly all A
mcrican Periodicals are either advanced in price or
reduced in sire—and very generally both, wo shall
continue to give faithful copies of all the matter
contained in the originaleditions.Hence, onr pres
ent prices will be found as cheap, for the amount
of matter furnished, as those of any of the com
peting periodicals in the country.
Compared with the cost of the original editions,
which at the present premium on gold would be
about SIOO a year, our prices (sls) areexceeding
ly low. Add to this the fact that weinake our an
nual payments to the British Publishers ftfr early
sheets and copyright in Gold—sl costing us at
this time nearly $2.50 in currency—and we trust
that in the scale we have adopted we shall be enti
rely justified by our subscribers and the reading
public.
The interest of these Periodicals to American
readers is rather increased than diminished by the
articles they contain on ourgreat Civil War, and
though sometimes tinged with prejudice they may
still, considering their great ability and the differ
ent stand-points from which they arewritten, be
read and studied with advantage by the people of
this country of eve-y creed and party.
