I look with sincere pity upon manr
farmers who are settling' down into ills'
couragemer.t over tLe condition of their
farms. Their crops are light from luck
of manure, the manure heap is small
fioin want of crops ; from want of any
thing to sell they are too poor to buy
fertilTzers, and in utter hopelessness
they exclaim : "Farming is a poor
business." , Well, such farming is a
poor business. I do not speak of this
t adi. to their isc .uragement, but to
give a word of cheer to point, if I
can, to some way to better tlte farmer's
lot. I In lieve the cLeapest aud easiest
way to bring up a run-down' farm is
by green manuring. Suppose your
farm is too poor for clover, aiftl grass
makes only a feeble growth ; pit on it
n manural crop that nill grftfr, such
as rye; turn this under wilh your
plow, and you can then raise some
thing better; keep feeding" jour soil
with everything your shovel and your
team can command ashes, leached
ashes, if you can get them by drawing
them within five miles muck, marl,
anything thit will bring a green man
tle over your fields. Soon yon can
jet the clover pump to work pumping
"tip to the surface the inexhaustible rc--sou
ices of your subsoiL ifau animal
dies, don't stop to bewail your luck
and exclaim : "Every tiling goes to the
ilojrs on my farm I" Don't send it to
the dogs at all, but compost it with
muck, or even soil, and thus secure a
most valuable manure. Samson per
formed a wonder by taking honey
from the dead carcass of a lion ; outd'o
that wonder by extracting wheat from
the carcass of your dead cow. Tick
up all the bones you can find, put them
under cover, and mix with them two
or three times their bulk of ashes from
your kitchen ; moisten them with
enough water so that the potash may
act on the gelatin of the bones ; stir
them over once a week, and in a month
or two you will find the bones so ten
der that 3011 can cut and crush them
with a blow of your shovel; beat the
whole into a powdery mass, and vou
will have a manure better than "the
average ot the suierphospLatcs which
you leel too poor to buy. Give a
handful of this to each hill of coin,
and see how it will wave its banner of
green and pour into your basket, the
golden ears of coin.
But in bringing your soil into good
condition do not neglect green manur
ing. Let every wind that, blows over
your fields bring them a blessing in
the shape of atmospheric plant food.
Do all these things patiently and hooe
fu!Iy, without urging your soil beyond
whil it can do, and you will vet, out
or the fullness ot a grateful heart, ex
claim: i;ies (iod for the farm.''

will give my plan for reclaiming worn
out land and raising a crop at the
same time ; Sow rye, say about the
last, of August or the first of Sep
tember, and for the first crop I would
frpread on a pretty heavy dressing ot
good barnyard manure and sow the
grain and harrow in together, The
object is to get the seed as close to the
manure as possible, and this will fur
nish good pasture until late in the
fall. Then keep off all stock until
spring; cut it about May 20, and you
should get from three to four tons of
the very best hay. It might be cut
fcooncr and used for soiling ; then 1
would plow in the stubble and plant to
white leans, or I would drill in corn,
in rows two and a half or three feet
apart, and this I would cut early for
fodder for milch cows, say about Sep
tember, then putting in another crop
of rye, and keep it up for three years.
Every time the rye stubble is plowed
in it is as good as a bed of manure.
The amount of roots that rye pro
duces is quite astonishing. One of
my neighbors has tried this plan of re
claiming land for the last thren ve ir
and he says he can raise as good wheat t
iijt on me iaii'1 inns treated as on
any part of his farm. I would say
from two to two and a half bushels
per acre; in fact, it can harulv
sown too thick for hay 01 for

an au.using instance of the discouiG
ture of a dog by a monkey. Jocko
was the property of a wondering organ
grinder, and had seated himself on a
bank within n private enclosure. A
tc rier dog made a dash for him. The

thought it time to show his hi

thereupon the dog dropped head and
tail and sneaked off into the house,
and would notle persuaded to venture

parson of that parish thought it hi duty to

clerk at the samo time thought it bis dnty
to assist at christening tea parlies. These
two functionaries quarreled, and the parson
one day commanded the clerk's presence

The clerk sa w the mots, and he determined
on his revenge. Having got the choir and

head on the pulpit cushion, for some time
did not notice what was going on, aud by
the time that he did the musicians were
fairly at work, and iu spite of all he could
say or do were not to be denied. The air
was never lost. The iiddleis wore out
their bos and strings, the Mute player
blew out his front teeth, the clarionet never
recovered its tone, and the singers all
suireied more or less, but they kept it up
to the bitter end and finished at 3 o'clock
in the aftern(Hn, after four hours' work.
Many of the congregation went to their
dinner, and returned in the afternoon to
finish, but the parson won much respect
by sticking to his pulpit to the last, when
he gave the usual benediction.
Ax English scientific paper remarks as
as acunoujrpuysiological fact that although
open air life is so favorable to health, yet
it has the appaient effect of stunting growth
in early youth. While the children of well-to-do
parents, carefully housed and tended,
are taller for their age than the children of
the poor, they are not so strontr in aftr
years. The laborer's"children. for in.
stance, who nlav iu tue lounlv
roads and fields all day, whose parents
lock their cottage doors when leaving for
woik iu the morning, so that their offspring
shall not gain entrance and do mischief
ate almost iuvaiiably short for their age.
the children of working farmers exhibit
the same peculiarity. After sixteeu or
eighteen, after years of hesitation as it
were, the lads sh.ot up and become great
hulking broad fellows, possessed of im
mense strength. Hence it would seem that
indoor life forces growth at the wrone
period and so injures." The inference is
plausible, but it is wide of the mark. The
children of the well to-do are tall not be
caune they are kept indoors, but because
they are well fed and aved from severe
exposure. The children ol the poor are
stunted not by too much sun and air, but
uw mcy his in tea. Ulve the first
class plenty of outdoor plav, with their
projier diet, and they will be strong as
well as tall; give to the laborer's children
the food suitable to their years, and no
amouut of gun and wind will stunt them.
On the contrary, they will cot have to wait
tnl age bungs capacity to turn strong food
to bone and muscle, and time to overcome
