farmer's gepn vtmcnt.
Iluw AVeeils nr. Prnpngnleil.
Tiieui: nro several sources from which
farms ilcrlvo their woutls. Ono amongst
tho moat prominent U tho sowing of
foul K-ciU, such ns Clover, Timothy, or
oven imrilen Heeiln. l'rof. Uiickiiinn
discovered In n plnt.of I'oiiimoli clover
need, 7,000 weed feeds j In ono plat of
Dutch Clovcr,(wliIto) 25,500 weed seeds,
nml In ntiothcr pint of tho snmo seed,
70,400 weed seeds. This seems nlmost
Incredible, but, to nny ono who has In
vcstlt'ntcd tho subject, thero Is nothing
surprising in It. I Tow Is this to bo
remedied? 1'imt, It may bo from rcll
nblo seedsmen, und only secil of tho
very best nunllty. Second, nnd tho
better nhm Is, for every farmer to pro
euro a number of small sieves of differ
cut degrees of llucncss. If any of your
readers aro curious to know how many
foul seeds aro contained In a pjck of
clover or timothy 8eed,lethlm procuro a
slovo that will not permit tho clover or
timothy seeds to pass through It, and
another, which will Just allow of their
passage. Tho fino slovo will allow tho
passages of seeds smaller than clover or
timothy, and tho coarso ono will retain
those, which aro larger. I havo made
.many experiments of this kind, and
oven In what appeared to bo tho prim
cstsecd, Invariably found enough weed
seeds to foul any farm on which thoy
would bo sown. Tho same plan should
bo adopted with garden seeds. Tho
wiving in a singlq season will re-pay tho
outlay for sieves more than fourfold,
and In some cases a hundred fold.
Again, tho dunghill Is another prolific
sourco of weeds on a farm. Many far
mers aro In tho habit of throwing all
tho weeds thoy collect about their farms
onto tho dunghills. This is an excel
lent and economic practice, provided
thoy aro cut beforo they hnvo gone to
seed, llut, unfortunately, weed cutting
and gathering is rarely done whllo tho
weeds aro green, and, as a consequence,
tho next season, their pestiverotis seeds
aro scattered broadcast over tho farm
witli tho manure, nnd, as is to bo oxpect
ed, a harvest of weeds and n heavy out
lay of labor is tho result. Never throw
a weed which lias ripened its seeds upon
the dunghill.
Let ovcry farmer wiio desires clean
grounds and profltablo returns adopt
tho fixed rule, that "No weeds shall bo
allowed to perfect their seeds undis
turbed." Constant cuttinglwlll destroy
most persistent perennial, and will cer
tainly eradicate all annual plants. Bri
ars und other bushes, if cut at tho sea
son rcforrcd to, will soon disappear;
and if woedy portions of tho farm aro
mowed or hoed beforo the plants maturo
their seeds, tho result must bo their com
plete eradication. Ilammonton Cultur
itt. Growing Turnips Willi Corn.
Mr. Barnes, of Westmoreland,
Oncdia county, N. Vi, has a novel way
of growing turnips witli corn, which wo
do not remember to havo seen described
before. IIo plants his corn thrco feet
four inches," apart, each, way, which
makes -1,000 hills to tho aero and man
ures in tho hills witli well rotted manure.
Ho uses about ten loads of manure to
tho aero, and whllo loading up
tho manure in tho yard, turnip seed
is scattered over tho load two or threo
times, or in other words, when a third
of tho load is put upon tho wagon, a fow
seeds aro sprinkled over it, and so on
for ovcry third of tho load. Tho manure
is then carted to tho field and placed in
tho rows whoro it is to bo used, and tho
corn planted. Ho states by this meth
od that about 0-cry hill will havo its
turnip plant, which grows well with
tho corn, and yields at tho rato of ono
hundred and fifty buslilcs to tho aero of
roots, 'without any detriment to tho corn
crop. Tho turnip plants becomo firmly
established by tho time tho corn is fit to
eat, and after that mako most of their
growth, advancing with great rapidity.
Ulica Herald,
Tan Dark for Potatoes.
The subject is brought before tho far
mers of England, by a communication
in tho Mark Lano Express. M. 11. B.
Bamford claims thirty-flvo years' prac
tico and experienco in tills matter; and
has issued n pamphlet giving Ids meth
od of using it, which is in brief tho fol
lowing : Ho does not cut his potatoes
for setting, but seta them whole, and
tho largest ho can select. Tho rows aro
thirty inclio apart, and tho potatoes ro
put nino inches from each other In tho
row. Tho land Is plowed only eight
inches deep, treads tho manure firmly
In tho furrows, puts in tho tubers, and
covers them in with tan rofusp, nino
incnes uoep, instead of earthing up. In
this wuy unreports that In 1857 lio raised
075 bushels or potatoes not a rotten ono
among them to tho acre, with nothing
but waste tan as n covering. 0f
great importance, tho tan rctuso helm?
of llttloor no valuo, nnd if it can be nut
to so important and advantageous a uso
as in this case, should bo widely known
and practised.
Corn,
TiiuiiE is u tendency to err Jiufplautlug
too largo varieties, nnd thoso that need a
long season. Tills leads to planting too
far apart. On bolls properly manured
3Jx3J feet is far apart enough for tho
hlllsof our largest Hint corn, and four
foct each way, right for dent com. Tho
littlo Northern varieties should bo much
closer ; sown in drills, thrco foct apart.
and stalks left eight Inches apart in the
drills, very heavy .crops are often ob
tained. Tho root3 of corn wander a
good way, henco on only moderately
enriched land tho plants must stand
further apart. Corn rarely begins to
grow beforo tho mlddlo of June, nnd if
well up by tho last of this month or tho
first of noxt, It is well enough.
Look out for weeds all this mouth;
they grow in a night, and requlro eon
stant euro and lubor to keep down.

Tttt Frnst of Clirtrlrfi.
In tho early part of tho sixteenth
century, cherried wcro very raro in
Germany; tlicro had been n rot, nnd It
was with tho utmost difficulty thot any
could bo preserved. But a citizen of
Hamburg, named olf, had in tho mid
dle of tho town a walled garden, nnd
In tho garden ho had gathered tho rarest
of cherry trees, and by constant watch
fulness ho had kept away tho uisenso
from ids fruit, so that ho nlono possessed
healthy cherry trees, and thoso in great
abundance, bearing thojuciest of chcr
ries. All who wished cherries must go
to him for them, and ho sold them at
tho highest prices, so that every season
ho reaped a great harvest of gold from
his cherries. Far and near, wolf's cher
ry trees were known, and liogrow rich
er and moro famous.
Ono season, when his cherry trees
wcro In blossom, and giving proniisoof
an abundant crop, n war broko out in
tho North of Germany, in which Ham
burg was invaded. Tho city was bo-
sieged, and so surrounded by tho enemy
that no help could reach It. Slowly
thoy consumed ri.n provisions that wcro
gathered, tl. j fim'.iio was staring thoni
in tho face; nor did thoy daro yield to
tho enemy, for in thoso days thero was
little mercy shown to tho conquered,
and while any hope remained, tho peo
ple held out, making vnln sallies into
tho enemy's camp, nnd growing weak
er dally, as less and less food remained
to them.
Meanwhile, tho enemy grow moro
fierco without. Tho heat was intense
and had dried up tho brooks and springs
in all tho country about, so that tho bo-
siegers woro becoming wild with thirst
it made them moro savage, and tho
Commanding General would listen to
no terms, but swore to destroy tho city
nnd to put nil tho inhabitants, soldiers,
and old men, women and children to
tho sword.
But would It not bo better thus to be
killed outright, than to suffer tho slow
death of famine? Wolf thought of
thoso tilings as ho returned ono day to
Ids garden in the midst of tho city, after
a week of fighting with tho enemy, in
ids nbsenco tho cherries had ripened
fast in tho hot sun, and were now su
porb, fairly bursting with tho red Juice
and making ono's mouth water at tho
sight.
A sudden thought came into his head
as ho looked at ids cherries, and a hopo
sprang up that ho might yet save his
fellow-townsmen. Tlicro was not a mo
mcnt to lose, for twenty-four hours
moro of suffering would make tho town
delirious. Ho brought together all the
children of tho town, to tho number of
thrco hundred, and had them dressed
wholly in whlto, In those days, and
in that country, tho funeral processions
were thus dressed. Ho brought them
each into ids orchard, and loaded each
with a branch, heavy with rich, juicy
cherries, and marshalling them, sent
them out of tho city, a fceblo procession
to tho camp of tho enemy. Tho dying
men and women filled tho streets as tho
white-robed children passed through
tho gates and out into tho country.
Tho besieging General saw tho pro
cesssion drawing near, concealed by tho
boughs thoy woro carrying, and ho sus
pected somo stratagem, as it wcro Bur
nam wood coming to Dunslnano. Then
ho was told that they wero tho children
of Hamburg, who had heard that ho
and his army wcro suffering of thirst,
and wcro bringing luscious cherries to
quench it. Thereat ho was very angry,
for ho was of a cruel and violent nature
and said that they had como to mock
him, and ho would surely havo them
put to death beforo ids eyes, oven as lie
had sworn ho would do to nil tho peo
ple of tho city.
But when tho procession camo beforo
him and ho saw tho poor children, so
thin, so pale, so worn out with hunger,
tho rough man's heart was touched ; a
spring of fatherly lovo that had long
been choked up in him, broko forth ; ho
was filled witli pity, and tears camo in
to his eyes, and what tho warriors of
tho town could not do, tho peaceful
children in white did thoy vanquished
tho hard heart. That evening tho littlo
cherry bearers returned to tho city, and
with them went a great procession of
carts filled witli provisions for the starv
ing peop.lo ; and tho very next day a
treaty of peaco was signed.
In memory of this event, tho peoplo
of Hamburg still keep ovcry year, a
festival called tho Feast of Cherries;
when tho children of tho city, clad in
whlto garments, march through tho
streets, holdlnggreen boughs, to which
tho people, coming out of their houses,
hasten to tlo bunches of cherries ; only
now tho children aro chubby and mer
ry and they eat the cherries themselves.
A Delightful I.igind.
Tiiunn is a charming tradition con
nected with tho sito on which tho Tem

nro superior to nil others for tho following re.i
sous :
1. They sow with two threads direct from the
spools, and requiring no rewinding.
2. They are moro easily understood nml mul,
nnd less liable to derangement than other ma
chines.
3. They nrocnpableof executing perfectljvWIIi-
out chniitfo of adjustment, a much greater vnrkty
of work than other machines.
1. The stitch made by theso machines is much
moro firm, elastic, and durable, especially upon
nrtlcles which require to bo washed nnd lroiieil,
than any other htltch.
This stitch, owing to tho manner In which the
under thread Is Inwi ought, is much tho imM
plump nnd beautiful In use, nnd retains this
plumpness and beauty oven upon articles fre
quciitly washed nnd Ironed until they aro void
out.
0. Tho structure of tho seam is such that, though
It Iks cut or broken at Intervals of only u few
stitches, It will neither open, run, nor ravel, but
remain ilrm and durable.
7. Unllko other machines, these fasten both
endsof tho seam by their own operation.
8. With thesrt machines, whllo silk Is used mm
tho right or faeosldo of tho seam, cotton may Ik'
used upon tho other sldo without lessening the
strength or durability of the seam. This can hu
done on no other machine, and Is a great saving
upon all articles stitched or mado up with silk.
U. Theso machines, In addition to their superior
meilts as Instruments for sewing, by a change ot
adjustment, enslly learned nnd practised, cm cub
