f Fanners cut this out and paste it on the
panels of y#ur kitchen doors:
It is, perhaps, safe to say that ou three
farms out of four the wife works harder, en
dures mote than any other on the place: more
than the husband, more than the farm hand,
more than the hired help ofthe kitchen. Ma
ny a former speaks to his wife habitually in
terms more imperious, inipatiant. and petu
lant than he would use to the scullion of the
kitchen or to his hired man.
Many a farmer" s wife is literally worked to
death in an inadvertant manner, from want
of reflection or consideration on the part of
her husband. None can understand better
than he, in plowing or sowing, or harvest
time, that if a horse gets sick, or runs away,
or is stolen, another must be procured that
very day; or the work will inevitably go be
hindhand. He does not carry the same prac
tical sense into the kitchen when the hired
help leaves without warning or becomes dis
abled, although he knows as well as any man
can know that they will expect their meals
with the same regularity, with the same
promptness, and with the same proper mode
of preparation; but instead of procuring other
help on the instant, he allows himself to be
persuaded, if the help is sick, she will get
well in a day or two, or a week at farthest,
and it is hardly worth while to get another
for so short a time. If the help has taken
' French leave,'" his mind fixes on the fact
that it is a very busy time and neither he nor
a single hand can be spared, or that, in the
course of a week, some one will have to go to
town for some other purpose, an it both these
matters can be attended to at the same time.
Meanwhile the wife is expected not only to
attend to her ordinary duties as usual, but
somehow or other to spare time to do all that
the cook or washerwoman was aceustomed to
do, that is, to do the full work of two persons,
each one of whom had already quite as much
labor to perform as she could possibly at
tend to. The wile attempts it. By herculean
efforts all goes on well. The farmer per
cievea no jar, no hitch in the working of the
machinery, and because no complaint is ut
tered, thinks that everything is goingoa with
out an effort. Meanwhile time passes, and
infinite shame" on some of them, they begin
to calculate bow much haa been saved from
servants wages, and how much less food has
been eaten, and because still no complaint
has been made, the resolution quietly forms
in the mind to do nothing until she does com
plain: bnt before that takes place, she falls a
victim to her over-exertions, in having laid
the foundation for weeks and months of ill
ness. if not of psemature decline and deatn.

LIME ©Jf ORCIf ARBS.
The value of lime for many purposes in
agriculture, is no longer a theoretical ques
tion, but an admitted fact. On orchards, its
effects have beer, very surprising—and such,
indeed, as to surprise even the most incred
ulous. For many uses, lime in the stone is
preferable, if it is of a character that admits
of its deingreduced to a condition sufficiently
fine for its application, for it then contains
about fifty per cent, of carbon, a principle
which enters largely into vegetables. Calcin
ation, or burning, drives off the carbon, and
renders caustic lime mild. In its freshly
slacked state, its application is, inmost cases,
attended with disadvantage, as its causticity
proves harmful in many ways. In regard to
the application of lime on orchards, it may
be remarked that the falhis perhaps as favor
able a season, on many accounts, as can be
selected. Itseffectsare slow and lasting, and
when spread on orchard grounds in August,
or even in September or October, it will be
felt the following year; whereas if applied in
the spring, no advantage would accrue till
the subsequent year, which would be a dead
loss to the owner of one year's use of the pe
cuniary capital involved in the outlay of the
experiment. In some cases, the favorable
effects of lime have been clearly apj>arent for
twenty years.
Old lime from the walls of buildings, is an
excellent stimulant for fruit trees of all kinds;
it acts immediately, and it acts long. In one
case, a farmer who was engaged in repairing
his dwelling, ordered a portion of the old
plastering taken from the walls of one of his
rooms, to be thrown from a window, where it
was accidentlly brought in contact with a
plum tree which had always been unproduc
tive, and a mere "cuirberer of the ground."
The subsequent year, however, it was filled
with fruit. This change was owing to the
lime, doubtless, as similar results have fol
lowed its application in various, indeed, in
innumerable cases of a like character. We
advise every prson, therefore, who is the own
er of an old and decayed orchard, to lose no
time in giving each tree a dressing of lime,
or, better still, if he can procure It, of old
plaster. A peck to a tree of middling size,
and half a bushel to a large one, is sufficient
according to the experience of many ; but
though we would by all means recommend
the application of even tbese small quantities
when larger quantities cannot be procured
yet we should sooner advise a bushel and a
half. We have no more faith in starving a
tree or a hill of Indian corn than we have in
starving an ox or a horse. The "penny wise
and pound foolish" policy, adopted by so ma
ny, is a bad one for the farmer. It always
results in loss, A BUCKS COVSTY FARMER.

BRITISH PERIODICALS.
VIZ.
London Quarterly Review (Conservative.)
Edinburgh Review (Whig.)
Westminster Review (Radical).
North British Review (Free-Church).
AND
Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine (Tory)
The American Publishers continue te reprint the
above-named periodicals, but as the cost 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 Reviews $4,011
For any two of the Reviews..., 7.00 "
For any three of the Reviews 10.00 "
For all four of the Reviews... 12.00 "
For Rlackwood'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 13.0(1 "
For Blackwood and the four Reviews.... 15.00 "
These works will be printed on a greatly im
proved quality of paper, and while nearly all A
meriean Periodicals are either advanced in price or
reduced in size—and very generally both, we ahull
continue to give faithful copies.of all the matter
contained in the original editions.Hence, our pres
ent price# will bo 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 $lOO a year, our prices ($l5) areexceeding
ly low. Add to this the fact that wemake our an
nual payments to the British Publishers for early
sheets aud copyright in Gold —$lcosting 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, arid
though sometimes tinged with prejudice tbey may
still, considering their great ability and the differ
ent stand-points from which they arewrittcn, be
read and studied with advantage by the people of
this country of every creed and party.
