IN AirOfTfRO^TT The following from a recent number of the I'r mi tie Farmer U almost equal to Franklin s j story of the whists . j \ few days ago a friend sent me word that, f .lav. he gave nearly twenty pails of but tern,i>k lot of "shoals," and they scarcely „,proved at alb Thinks I, this is a breed of h ! „ s worth seeing.— They must he of the sh-el -iron fcfnti. So I called on him, heard hint repeat the nmurnfol story, and then visi ted the sty. in order to get a better view of the in ntnulotis swine. 1 went into the pen, and .•it close examination, found a crack in the trough through which most of the contents ran awny tinder the floor. Thinks I. here i* ill.' type of the failures of our agricultural brethren. When I we a farmer omitting all improve menu bee-use. of a little cost, selling all his farm stock, to buy bank or rail-road stock or j mortgage stock, robbing bis land, while, in ! reality, he is also robbi g himself, and his heir, thinks 1. my friend, you have a crack in your hog trough. Wh-.i 1 see a fanner subscribing for halt a dozen political and miscellaneous papers, and ; ending all hi- time in reading them, while be does'at read a single agricultural or horticultural jom-nal. thinks 1. to myself, poor man, you have got a large and wide crack in your hog trough. When I see a farmer attending all the po litical conventions, and coming down liberally with the 'dan',' on all caucus conventions and knowing every ma:! in town that votes his ticket, and yet to save his neck, couldn't tell who is Piesident of his County Agricultural ociety, or where the Fair was held last year, I "unanimously come to the conclusion that the poor - .il has jot a crack i-i his hog trough. Wh.n I see A Jffumer baying guano, but wasting ashes and hen manure trying ali sorts of experiments except intelligent hard work and economy, gotiing the choicest of seeds regardless of cost, then planting them regard less of cultivation. growing the variety of fruit called Sour Tart S.;eJlii,g. and sweetening it with sugar, pound for pound, keeping the front fields rich while the back lots are grow : ing up with thistles, briers and ciders, con- j tributiog to the C'hock! ; v Indian fund and never giving a cent ii " > griculturalsociety! j • uch a man I will giv -n guarantee, j has got a crack in his hog trough, and in his head also. When 1 see a farmer allowing loose boards all over his yard, fences down, hinges ofl the gate, manure in the barn yard, I come to the < 'inclusion that he has got a large crack in his : hog trough. When I see a farmer spending his time travelling in a carriage, when he has to sell all his com to pay the hired help, and his hogs arc so loan that they have to lean against the fer.ee to squeal, I rn'her lean to the con clusion that sonteb' Jy that stays at home will have a lien on the farm, and that some day the bottom will come entirely out of his hog through. FALL TBEK PLANTING The curlier in autumn that tree planting is performed the better provided the wood has matured. It is not requisite that the leaf has fallen; but in transplanting, the leaf should be removed ere the tree is dug from the grounds keep the roots from drying cold winds or clear hot suns, and when setting spread them out regularly, and see that line earth is next against each and every liber; for where one root is laid against a:i. tlier without soil inter vening. it is liable to dry and decay, and often destroy the whole tree. Do not pour water in among the roots at this time of year, but press and u in vie the earth carefully with the hand and sp • j fingers. Mound up around the tree earth ; :l tight inches high, to assist it in retaining its upright position and alcu to carry off -orpins water, for no in : !.:r how carefully the tree be planted, if wa ter. is permitted to stand aronnd it and soak the roots from day io day, it maybe expected to die. IT is hardly necessary for us to caution against, or repeat our advice in regard to the purchase of any tree or vine simply becase it is offered at a low price. The buyer should a ways remember that the "laborer is worthy of his hire," aud that the grower of trees and plants tor sale has no easy item of life, but it he pursues his profession with regard to sus taining a favorable reputation for integrity and honor, ni;;-t give his own personal atten tion to aud f : t! ~t attention deserves and n: strcee' •a ! r compensation. The par eha-t rof trees, '.h- i eforc, should make his order, aud then add. "Send me the best tree you can, a d charge accordingly." One good, well-rooted, well-grown tree or vine is worth halfadt en cltth : Med. unripe wooded ones. —Jfortintkur&t. s S *"': THE LEAVES.—WE are careless of le ;•■<: we let the wind carry them away, . hen their uses are so manifold.

Tbe fact is patent, although we are not able to explain it.

Low Rates of Premium and New Tables, the most desirable means of insuring life yet presented to the public. The rates of premium, being largely reduced, are made as favorable to the insurers as ihose of the best Mutual Companies, and avoid all the complications and uncertainties of Notes, Divi dends and the misunderstandings which the latter are so apt to create among the Policy-Holders. Several new and attractive tables are now pre sented which need only to be understood to prove acceptable to the public, such as the INCOME PRODUCING POLICY and RETURN PREMI UM POLICY. In the former, the policy-holder not only secures a life Insurance, payable at death, but will receive, if living, after a period of a few years, on annuo/ income equal to tern per cent. (11l per cent.) of the par of kit policy. In the latter, the Company agrees to return to the aeeured the total amount of money he hae paid in, in addition to the amount of hie policy.
