Don't Leave The Farm.
Come, boys, I have something to tell you,
Come near, I would whisper it low—
You are thinking of leaving the home-
stead—
Don't be in a hurry to go !
The city has many attractions,
But think of the vices and sins;
When once in vortex of fashion,
How soon the course begins,
You talk of the mines of Australia—
They're wealthy in gold without doubt;
But ah ! there is gold on the farm, boys,
If you'll on l y shovel it out.
The mercantile trade is a hazard,
The goods are first high and then low;
Better risk the old farm awhile longer—
Don't be in a hurry to go.
The great busy West has inducements,
And so has the busiest mart;
But wealth is not made in a day, boys,
Don't be in a hurry to start!
The bankers and brokers are wealthy;
They take in their thousands or so—
Ah ! think of the frauds and deceptions—
Don't be in a hurry to go.
The farm is the safest and surest,
The orchards are loaded to-day ;
You are as free as the air of the moon•
tains,
And monarchs of all you survey.
Better stay at home awhile longer,
Though profits come in rather slow;
Remember you've nothing to risk, boys,
Don't be in a hurry to go.
Care for the Sheep,
Winter is at hand, and every owner of
a flock ofsheep should have his arrangements
made for it. In most of the Northern
States an exaggerated feeling of discour
agement still pervades the growers of fine
wool. Many of them wintered their flocks
poorly last winter, on the ground that they
could not afford to feed them well—and
probably will do the same this win&r.
This, in our opinion is a cruel and suicidal
policy. Less returns are thus obtained
from a given amount of food. Thirty
half starved sheep will produce less good
merchantable wool than twenty properly
kept ones; and will lose twice or three
times as many by death; and will not raise
half as many lambs. And what farmer
possessing a spark of humanity is willing
to see these poor, defenseless animals—
animals which afford one of the greatest
and most indispensable necessaries of hu
man life—driven to eke out a scanty sup
ply of hay or straw, by digging through
the snow for, or cropping from the icy and
storm swept fields, grass which has been
rendered almost wholly innutritious by
freezing—the sheep every day growing
thinner and weaker—all of them totter
ing before March closes; many of the in
lambed ewes incapable of rising with their
burthen, and dying in parturition. A
more painful spectacle of brute suffering
than a flock in such condition, near the
close of winter, cannot be witnessed.
And we believe that morality has a voice
in this matter, as well as humanity. We
believe that no man has a moral right to
subject the useful domestic animals, pro
vided to supply his wants, to the gratuitous
and brutal cruelty of starving and tortur
ing them to death by inches. It is purely
gratuitous cruelty. Every one has a right
to kill his domestic animals when neces
sary, and the mode should be prompt and
instantaneous. Every flock master who
has more sheep than he can keep properly,
or sell, should kill the surplus when win
ter sets in, if he gets nothing for them
but the pelts. Death comes to them as a
friend, saving them and others from pro
tracted suffering, and not increasing the
aggregate mortality. The remainder es
cape suffering, and make better returns to
the owner, than would the whole flock under
the starving treatment. Rural New

How to Make the Boys Good Farmers.
Induce them to take an interest in the
farm, in the implements, in the stock; tell
them all your plans, your successes and
failures; give them a history of your own
life, and what you did and how you lived
when a boy ; but do not harp too much' on
the degenerate character of the young men
of the present age ; praise them when you
can and encourage them to do still better.
Let them dress up for the evening instead
of sitting down in their dirty clothes in a
dingy room. Provide plenty of light;
thanks to kerosene, our country homes can
be as brilliantly and as cheaply lighted as
the gas-lit house in the city. Encourage
the neighbors to drop in evenings. Talk
agriculture rather than politics; speak more
of the importance of large crops, of good
stock, of liberal feelings, and of the advan
tages of making animals comfortable, rath
er than of the hard times, low prices and
high wages. Above all, encourage the
boys to read good agricultural books. Pa
pers are all good enough, but an intelligent
boy wants something more and better. Get
him some good agricultural book to study.
Read it with him and give him the benefit
of your experience and criticism. When
he has mastered this buy him another. In
our own case, we owe our love for farmino•
principally to the fact that our father talk
ed to us of every thing that was doing on
the farm; answering all our questions and
encouraging, rather than refusing our
childlike desire of helping him to plow, to
chop, to let off water, and fire the brush
heap.
Making Fruit Trees Bear.
Here is a great field of experimenting
on the culture of fruit. I would like to
hear from some more of our practical far
mers on the subject. . .
L. L. Farechild's view agrees with mine.
He thinks the flow of sap being hindered
starts into full development the dormant
fruit buds, thus making the tree bear the
ensuing year.
I think in cutting around the limbs or
the body of the tree would answer the pur
pose. It stops the flow of the sap, thus
stops the growth of the tree, and the tree
is sure to bear. I would say, stop the
growth of a young tree to make it bear,
and give an old tree plenty of manure to
make it bear.
I picked.apples this year that weighed
11 pounds, and measured 151 inches
around, from trees which ate thirty-three
years old. These trees were loaded with
fruit, two-thirds of which would measure
from 9. to 12 inches around.
I esteem the agricultural columns of the
Gazette more highly than I do the Ameri
can Agriculturist.-3. Makemson, in Cin
cinnati Gazette.

Beautiful Surroundings.
Man's nature is so marvelously consti
tuted that he is reached and moved through
the avenues of every sense. The spirit
within him resembles a harp, the strings
of which, as they are swept by every breeze,
give out respondent tones. The music
which strikes the ear summons answering
feelings in the heart which is touched by
the plaintiveness, or exalted by the cheer
fulness of the strain. The beauty which
meets the eye, whether it is spread abroad
in the glory of some noble prospect or
blooms in the beauty of the opening flower,
toadies a cord within which responds to
the outer influence. Thus the external
world with its sights and sounds, and even
subtler influences, often unrecognized, is
ever reaching toward and affecting men
even when they are must unconscious of its
influence.
The lesson of this is that all, so far as
possible, should surround themselves with
objects calculated to excite pleasurable
emotions. The wealthy generally do so;
the instincts of a cultivated nature make
the demand which their resources are
adequate to meet ; but the poor too seldom
give sufficient thought or care to this.
Yet there are few so destitute that they
may not, if they will, bring a portion of
the brightness, and the beauty of God's
rich world into the circle of their own im
mediate lives. A picture hung upon the
wall—and better a single good one than a
score of daubs—a singing bird, hanging in
its cage and sending the thrills of song,
born of its joyous life, through all the
dwelling; a flowering plant or two, breath
ing their fragrance on the air while they
win the eye by the beauty of their glowing
petals—these are within the reach of all,
and, humble as they seem, they bring the
ministries of beauty to the heart.
Men grow into the likeness of that
wil.idh they constantly look upon. Beauty
or deformity, alike, daguerreotype their
images upon the heart ; and it is, perhaps,
to the wretchedness of their material sur
roundings that much of the grossness and
vioe amongst the poorer classes may be
traced. Even a shade tree before one's
dwelling is of value, while a garden spot,
however small, from which the meek-eyed
flowers look up to him who tends them, is
like an open page in a volume filled with
lessons of purity and peace.
The Erie High School.
An Erie paper thus speaks of the clos
ing exercises of the High School of that
city:
"The closing exercises of the Central
High School were very creditable to all
the performers, complimentary to the
teachers under whose careful and skilful
tuition the pr9ficiency has been attained,
and interesting to the large and apprecia
tive audience, who showed their care for
the school by their presence. There were
orations, essays, declamations and recita
tions, varied with instrumental music of
the finest character, and choral singing.
Of course no special references can be
made where all did so excellently. A few
short speeches closed the entertaining 'last
day.,
THE pupils of the Lebanon Female High
School, under the direction of their , teach- ,
er, Miss Sue Richardson, recently gave
very interesting and creditable entertain
ments in the Court House. The proceeds
were expended in the purchase of a fine
melodeon for the school.

THE KIDNEYS,
The Kidneys are two in number, situated at the
upper part of the lion, surrounded by fat, and con
sisting of three parts, viz: the Anterior, the In
terior, and the Exterior.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tis
sues or veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine
and convey it to the exterior. The exterior is a
conductor also, terminating in a single tube, and
called the Ureter. The ureters are connected with
the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various coverings or
tissues, divided into parts, viz: the Upper, the
Lower, the Nervous and the Mucous. The upper
expels, the lower retains. Many have a desiae to
urinate without the ability'; others urinate without
the ability to retain. This frequently occurs in
children.
To cure them affections, we must bring into ac
tion the muscles, which are engaged in their var
ious functions. If they are neglected, Gravel or
Dropsy may ensue.
The reader must also be made aware, that how
ever alight may be the attack, it is sure to effect
the bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh
and blood are supported from these sources.
Gorr, on RearmArtsu.—Pain occurring in the
loins is indicative of the above diseases. They oc
cur in persoris disposed to acid stomach and chalky
concretions.
Ton GluevEL.—The gravel ensues from neglect
or improper treatment of the kidneys. These or
gans being weak, the water is not expelled from
the bladder, but allowed to remain; it becomes
feverish, and sediment forms. It is from this de
posit that tho stone is formed, and gravel ensues.
DROPSY is a collection of water to some parts
of the body, and bears different names, according
to the parts affected, viz: when generally diffused
over the body, it is called Anasarea ; when of the
abdomen, Ascites : when of the chest, Hydrothorax.
TuEnvaxxv.—llelmbold's highly concentrated
compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one of the
best remedies for diseases of the bladder, kidneys,
gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatism and gout
affections. Under this head we have arranged
Dysurta, or difficulty and pain in passing water,
Scanty Secretion, or small and frequent discharges
of water; Strangury, or stopping of water; Herne
tuHa, or bloody urine ; (lout and Rheumatism of
the kidneys, without any change in quantity, but
increase in color, or dark water. It was always
highly recommender by the late Dr. Phyeick, in
these affections.
This medicine increases the power of digestion,
and excites the absorbents into healty exercise by
which the watery or calcareous depositions, and
all unnatural enlargement?, as well as pain and in
flammation, are reduced, and it is taken by men,
women and children. Directions for use and diet
accompany.
PuzLAneuritis, PA., Feb. 25, 1867.
H. T. HELIEBOLD, Druggist:
Dear Sir:—l have been a sufferer, for upward
of twenty years, with gravel bladder and kidney
affections, during which time I have used various
medicinal preparations, and have been under the
treatment of the most eminent Physicians, experi
encing little relief.
lla;ing seen your preparations extensively ad
vertised, I consulted with my family physician in
regard to using your Extract
I did this because I had used all kinds of ad
vertised remedies, and had found them worthless,
and, some quite injurious ; in fact, I despaired of
ever getting well, and determined to use no reme
dies hereafter unless I knew of the ingredients. It
was this that prompted me to use your remedy.
As you advertised that it was composed of huchu,
cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and
my physician as an excellent combination, and,
with his advice after an examination of the article
and consulting again with the druggist, I conclud
ed to try it. I commenced its use about eight
months ago, at which time I was confined to my
room. From the first bottle I was astonished and
gratified at the beneficial effect, and after using it
three weeks, was able to walk out. I felt much
like writing you a full statement of my case at
that time, but thought my improvement might
only be a temporary, and therefore concluded to
defer and see if it would effect a perfect cure,
knowing then it would be of greater value to you,
and more satisfactory to me.
I am now able to report that a cure is effected
after using the remedy for Sive months.
I have not used any now for three months, and
fell as well in all respects, as I ever did.
Your %dm being devoid of any unpleasant
taste and odor—a nice tonic and invigorator of the
system. Ido not mean to be without it whenever
occasion may require its use in such affections.
