Give the Boys a Chance.
The fah - Jiving should he read carefully
by our farmers and others :
The art of farming needs lush supplies
of youthful blood, warmed with energy,
and hope, and ambition, to rejuvenate its
customs, traditions, and ancient methods.
As men grow old, they are little inclined
to experiment, to try new things, or to
change their habits; if they have been
successful, they daclioe any addition to
their routine knowledge; if unsuccessful,
they put in a plea of "too old to learn."
Farming, as a trade or manufacture, is
largely in the hands of men advanced in
life, and, as a whole, is more stationary
than any other branch of business. If,
by some combination, the experience, pru
dence and caution of the father could be
united 'with . the ambition, push and ac
tivity of the son, decided advance might
be expected in farming. The best talent
of the family seldom stays on the farm ;
youth receives no encouragement; the boy
is classed with the hired help; he finds
nothing for his brain to feed upon, noth
ing to arouse his pride, nothing to fire his
inventive genius, nothing to satisfy his
longing desire to step up higher ; hence he
early seeks a home in some city or manu
facturing village, where the demand for
brains is more,pronouneed, and where the
prizes of life are distributed in open corn.
petition. Soon the boy, whose father, but
a few years before, doubted his business
capacity in even selling a yearling to the
village butcher, stands at the head of
some mercantile house whose weekly sales
are thousands. Bow that boy's financial
shrewdness and business was needed on the
farm be left ! The youngster, whose bud
ding intellect was nipped by the chill frost
of parental sternness and indifference, is
heard from in after life as the eminent
lawyer. His sound sense, reasoning power
and keen perceptions were sadly needed
on the home farm. The lad who pleaded
in vain to be allowed to lay out a stone
wall, a culvert or a lane unwillingly turns
his back on the scenes of childhood, yet
the near future lays the world's tribute to
his scientific skill in suspension bridge or
aqueduct. How easily this engineer could
double the value of the ancestral acres by
draining and proper construction of rods
and buildings.
Farmers, think of this; the very boys
you are rearing to-day, driven from home,
will fill the highest places in the gift of
commerce, art, manufacture and legisla•
tion. Why should the farm see this tal
ent depart? Wby rob itself of their needed
brains ? If these, your decendants, can
give impulse to trade, invention, to me.
armies, eloquence to the forum, why not
induce such ability to remain with you ?
Why not encourage such talent to lift the
cultivation of the soil into the front rank,
to select with business sagacity the profit
able branches of culture, to conduct with
merchant's shrewdness the buying and
selling of tools, and seeds, and product ?
Ii commerce or manufacture make loud
calls for boys, make louder calls yourself.
Give the boys a chance at home, encour
age them, stimulate them; give them a
piece of ground to cultivate as their own,
give them cattle to rear; surround them
with such books and papers as your means
afford ; permit them to make inexpensive
experiments; treat them as equals, as
young men of brains, ofperceptive faculties;
give them a little authority, a little power ;
talk matters over with them, consult with
them, try their Capacity, put confidence in
them. Encourage the village lyceum, the
farmers' club ; take .the boy - 8 along; let
them trig little new seed, a little poultry ;
let them raise a few early lambs ; introduce
any culture the success of which depends
on their personal attention to detail ; make
the boys interested, thoughtful, anxious to
excel. Don't kill them with drudgery;
))rains are worth more than stone walls,
knowledge is more powerful than iron bars,
study is more potent than physical force.
Make home pleasant to them, encourage
social gatherings of young folks, promote
sociability, company amusements, variety
of occupation. These are among the city's
attractions, and the cause of the migration
ii apparent. Adopt the remedy, keep the
boys on the farm ; if wore bu.sine , s ij want
ed, supply it in increased and improved
culture —AnzerZeon Cultivator,
Petroleum on Shingles
In regard to applying petroleum to
shingles to preserve them. a writer says;
"It enters the pores of the wool at once,
and as it hardens makes it more compact
in texture, and rather less liable to take
fire. The petro!euru also prevents the sur
face of the shingles from rising in downy
fibres or "fuzz" and it is, on the whole,
not so liable to fire from sparks when
treated with it We have tried the expe
riment with shingles oiled some time pre
viously, and find they arc not so easily ig
nited by outside fire, although when once
burning, they will of course, produce more
flame than the wood without the petrole
um." Petroleum is also very good to ap
ply to the iron work and steel of farm im
plements to prevent their rusting when
not in use. The crude article costs but
83 or $4 per barrel—the price may be
higher at present—and it is useful to keep
on hand. When any outbuilding, or even
ybur dwelling house, is to be painted, one -
hall the expense may be saved by applying
a coat of petroleum with a fine whitewash
brush, let it dry several weeks, and then
put on one coat of paint, and by so doing
a second coat of paint is rendered unne
cessary.
THE POTATO BEETLE.—Agriculturists
predict that the potato beetle will not be
so destructive, this year, as it has been for
the last two seasons. This prediction is
based on the fact, that the pest is either
emigrating or dying out. If, however,
the beetle should appear this summer hi
numbers as large as usual, there is one
way in which it can, in a measure, be
circumvented. Plant as soon as the
ground is fit for that purpose. The po
tato will ripen about the middle of July,
and will sell at prices which will justify
the disposing of the crop. The beetle
commences its work in earnest in the latter
part of that month.

A_ILL
DR. SWAYNE,
The Diecoverer and Compounder of the far-famed
DR. SWAYNE'S
Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry
and other valuable preparations, entered upon hie profes
sional career with the important advantage of a regular
Medical Education in one of the oldest and best schools
in Philadelphia, and, perhaps in the world. Ile subse
quently served a faithful term of practice in the Philadel
phia Dispensary, and for many years attended also in the
Hospital. In these institutions he enjoyed the most am
ple opportunities of obtaining an insight into diseases in
all their various forme, as well as for ascertaining the best
methods of their treatment. In offering, therefore, to the
people of the United States the fruits of his extensive pro-
fessional experience in the medical compounds as the best
results of his skill and observation, he feels that he is but
proffering a boon to every family throughout the land,
resting, as he does, confidently, in the merits and effica
cious virtue of the remedies he herewith commend.. The
Teat amount of testimony from all parts of the world has
proven "DOCTOR SWAYNE'S COMPOUND SYRUP OF
WILD CHERRY" the most efficacious remedy known,and
it is admitted by our most eminent physicians, and all
who have witnessed its wonderful healing properties. The
WILD CHERRY in all ages of the world, and in all coun
tries where it is known, has been justly celebrated for its
wonderful medicinal qualities; but its great power to cure
some of the worst and most distressing diseases among us
was never fully ascertained until the experiments of that
skillful physician, Dr. Swayne, had demonstrated its high
adaption, in combination with Pine Tree Tar, and in other
equally valuable vegetable ingredients, which, chemically
combined, renders its action tenfold more certain and ben
eficial in curing all diseases of the throat, breast and
lungs. DR. SWAYNE'S WILD CHERRY COMPOUND
strikes at the root of all diseases by purifying the blood,
restoring the liver and kidneys to healthy action, iavigor
sting tho nervous and shattered constitution.

Dr. Isaac 11. Miller, of West Brecknock, Berke county,

Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry. After using it for some
time, she was entirely cured, and Is now as well as ever,

The following is an extract from
a description of Vineland, publish
ed in the New York Tribune, by the
well known Agriculturist, Solon
Robinson :
All of the farmers were of the
"well-to-do" sort, and some of them,
who have turned their attention to
fruits and market gardening, have
grown rich. The soil is loam, vary
ing from sandy to clayey, and sur
face gently undulating, intersected
with small streams and occasional
wet meadows, in which deposits of
peat or muck are stored, sufficient
to fertilize the whole upland surface,
after it has been exhausted of its
natural fertility.
It is certainly one of the most exten
sive tracts, in an almost level position,
and suitable condition for pleasant farm
ing, that we know of this side of the
Western prairies. We found some of
the oldest farms apparently 04 profitably
productive as when first cleared of forest
fifty or a hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discos--
er the cause of this continued fertil
ity. The whole country is a marine
deposit, and all through the soil we
found evidences o'..* calcareous sub- ,
stances, generally in the form of in
durated calcareous marl, showing
many distinct forms of ancient
shells, of the tertiary formation ;
and this marly substance is scattered all
through the soil, in a very comminuted
form, and in the exact condition most
easily assimilated by such plants as the
farmer desires to cultivate.
