tam and Porkyid,
Don't Change.
Many farmers exhibit a disposition to
shift from one branch of farming to anoth
er, which seldom results in anything save
"vanity and vexation of spirit," loss of
money. This history of the rise and fall
of agricultural manias would form a bulky
and not uninstructive volume. A few years
ago, wool commanded a high price. Far
mers all rushed into the sheep business,
following in that respect the sheep them
selves, who always jump a fence collective
ly, or as nearly as possible. In time, the
price of wool declined and then the sheep
were very . suddenly converted into mutton,
and there seemed to be a desire on the
part of farmers to exterminate sheep from
the face of the earth. Then things took
another turn, and wool rose again, and
sheep were in active demand, with a short
supply. It will be readily seen, that if
some prudent, sensible farmer had pre
served the "golden means," and had kept
a fair stock of sheep right along through
evil and good report, he would on the
whole, have made money. The successive
manias first for buying and then for kill
ing sheep, is not the only example of folly
we could mention. In some sections of
the eountry the bop fever breaks out every
few years, and every other agricultural
pursuit in that particular section is aban
doned or neglected for hop raisin g . There
then comes a "back-set," and the curses
of the hop raisers are both loud and deep.
Just now, in Kansas, there is a disposition
to abandon the cattle and hog business, be
cause for this season the prices are unusu
ally low. Many farmers probably sell out
almost to the last hoof and horn. Such
farmers will, inside of another year or two,
most certainly regret the step. This is as
certain as it is that the people are not go
ing to stop eating pork and beef.
bur theory is that year by year it al
ways pays to raise all the leading products
of the fram. The farmer who sticks to his
business for twenty years together, raising
corg, cattle, sheep and hogs, will make
n22Le..t.han oses. The good years will
more than balance the bad ones. Farm
ing is not like speculative business, and
sudden fortunes are not made in it, and
the sooner farmers realize this the better.
It has been said that the clock that stands
still is right twice in twenty-four hours,
while another may be goinc , ° all the time
and be perpetually wrong. We think far
mers can make the necesssary application.
—Lawrence Home Journal.
Too Much Stirring the Soil
That frequent stirring of the soil among
growing crops is as a rule advantageous,
we do not doubt, but that there are no ex
ceptions to this rule demanding the exer
cise of a sound discrimination, we can not
believe. With many "constant stirring,"
or "frequent stirring" is the great pana
cea for all ailments of the soil and all lap
ses of climate. We became convinced sev
eral years ago that like a great many oth
er hobbies this was ridden quite too far,
and much subsequent observation and some
little experiment have fully confirmed us
in that opinion.
We are not disposed to enter upon an
extended discussion of the subject at this
time, but desire simply to call attention to
it. We have in several instances in times
of extreme drought found the use of the
cultivator and hoe intensifying rather than
mitigating the evil, and that too on drain
ed as well as underdrained lands. and
among both roots and corn crops. We left
the past season, which was unusually dry
at the second hoeing, a strip of several
rows across the middle of our corn fields,
uncultivated and unhocd, and although
there was a good many weeds, we found as
the season advanced the corn was
much more heavily eared than clesewhere,
and such has been theexperience of' sever
al of our neighbors, both this and former
seasons.— Country Gentleman.
Waterproof Glue,
We have recently met with a very use
ful form of cement for wooden or other
similiar articles which are employed fbr
holding water or alcoholic liquids. Al
though the formula is not a very novel one,
we know it to be useful and likely to suit
the requirements of some of our readers. It
stands as follows :
Alcohol, (spirit of wine) 1 pint ; san
darac, 1 ounce ; mastic, 1 ounce ; com
mon white turpentine, 1 ounce; glue and
isinglass, sufficient ; water sufficient. Dis
solve the two resine—sandarac and mastic
—in the spirit, and then add the turpen
tine to the solution. Make some very
strong glue, and add to it a good pinch of
isinglass. Now heat the alcoholic varnish
until the liquid begins to boil, and then
very slowly stir in the warm glue. The
amount of the liquid glue to be added is de
termined by noting the point at which after
thorough mixture, magma or thin paste is
formed capable of being easily strained
through cloth. When required for use, the
strained mixture is to be warmed and
applied like ordinary glue to the articles to
be united. A strong junction is affected,
which is not destroyed by cold water, and
only after a comparatively considerable
time by hot water or ordinary saline sola
tions.—British. Journal of Photography.
Age of a Cow,
Somebody says that the age of a cow is
known by the teeth and horns. This an
imal is furnished with eight cutting teeth
in the lower jaw; at the age of ten months
the two middlemost of these fall out, ana
are replaced by others that are not so white,
but broader; at the age of sixteen months
the next milk-white teeth fall out likewise,
and others come up in their room; thus
at the end of every six months ; the crea
ture loses and gains, till at the age of three
years all the cutting teeth are renewed,
and then they are long, pretty white, and
equal ; but in proportion as the animal
advances in years, they become irregular
and black, their inequalities become
smoother, and the animal less capable of
chewing its food. Thus the cow often de
clinesg from this single cause; for, as it
is obli ed to eat a great deal to support
life, and as the smoothness of the teeth
makes the difficulty of chewing great, a
sufficient quantity of food cannot be sup
plied to the stomach. Thus the poor an
imal sinks in the midst of plenty, and ev
ery year grows leaner and leaner till it
dies. The horns are another and surer
method of determining the animal's age.
At three years old, a very slight external
shell coating falls off the places where the
horns are about rising. At four years of
age the cow has small, pointed, neat, smooth
horns, thickest near the head; at five the
horns become larger, and are marked
around with the former year's growth.
Thus, while the animal continues to live,
the horns continue to lengthen, and every
year a new ring is added to the root; so
that, allowing two years for their appear
ance, and then reckoning the number of
rings, we have in both, together, the ani
mal's age exactly.
Hou-Hata is recommended by one of
our cotemporaries for hen' nests. Nests
of hog-hair are never infested with lice.
Hen-lice in hog's hair won't stay. These
nests we select for hatching our chickens.
We have had other nests so infested with
lice that the hens abandoned them.—Er.

The ARION PIANO-FORTE has greater power

It will Staad in Tune Longer,
and in its mechanical construction it is more per

ment constructed in the usual modern style.
The arrangement of the Agraffe, the manner of

SUPERCEDES ALL OTHERS.
The use of a bar (which is a part of the Iron
Framo on a line with the heavy steel stringing,)
GREAT STRENGTII
where most needed, and in this respect all other
pianoes fail.
The construction of the WREST PLANK, into
which the tuning Pins are inserted, is such that it
is impossible for the pins to come loosened, or the
Wrest Plank itself to split, as is too often the case
in other Piano-Fortes.
The Extraordinary Evenness

GEO. SHAFFER.
MANY CITIZENS of thin county who, had been
persuaded to buy other kinds of Sewing Machines,
which seemed at/ire to work well on a tolerable
range of work, have expressed to me their regrets
that the genuine original Elias Howe Sewing Ma
chine—the beat in the world—had not been brought
to their notice before purchasing. And judging
from the number of offers I have, to trade Howe
machines for all other kinds, I estimate that the
people of this county have lost more than $20,000
by failing to get, at the first, the genuine Howe
Machine. It is made on sound mechanical prin
ciples, avoids rickety cog-wheels, and is so con
structed as to have perfect control by adjustment,
and provision made to restore lost motion when it
wears, thereby securing extraordinary durability,
and adaptation to the greatest range of work. Now
as my traveling agents may not be able to visit
every person in time, and as many inferior ma
chines of different kinds are still being urged on
the public, I hereby GIVE NOTICE, that before
you spendyour time or money on any other ma
chine, the safest plan is, either to write to me di
rect, or inquire of agents for the famous Elias
Howe, machine, from Brown's Carpet Store, Hun
tingdon, Pa., and take no agents word for it, that
the machine is genuine, unless it has the medal
lion at the head of this article, imbedded in the
bed plate of every machine.
