How and When to Apply Fertilizers.
Professors of chemistry and heads of
agricultural eollegai in Lire several States
are expected to-give valuable information
through the agricultural press, and it will
be exieedintly instructive, if they should
tell us, the farmers of Ole State; how and
when to apply fertilizers so as to make it
pay to use them. It is thought it will pay
to buy some kind of stimulant for about
one- hundred acres of meadow land lying
in a valley, but is not decided what fer-
tilizers to obtain and as chmists who teach
in State institutions ought to know all
about such matters, the writer will give an
outline of partilulars.
In the valley there is a brook which
once or twice each spring overflows a por.
Lion of the meadows, and there are warner
ous springs which run freely is April and
May, but which dry up in the summer.
There is some very high moutain land on
each side of the valley and iron is suppos
ed to lie in great quantities in the heart
of the vast hills on both sides, and as even
in the valley there are great quantities of
roekit and , loose stones andgravel, it may
be that some brands of Oosphate, etc.,
weed tot bo of Ditch use, as iron proba
bly, would neutralize their effects There
is a good variety of grass prowing, and if
it &tad be obtained on a moderate freight,
- etc., 20 tons ofgood farm-yard manure per
sem i to the whole mass ;
'• daltnbt Se lad here, and the soil is
poor because the hay has bem taken off
for nearly twenty years and no return
made.
This autumn, in consequence ofslrought
and the exhaustion of the hold, the cattle
have eaten the grass very short and it is to
be feared the whole herbage will be weak
in the spring. Now the idea is that some
suitable chemical application would
strengthen the whole mass of weak h,rb
age, so that by better usage hereafter the
blue grass, cloVer, red top, etc , would not
die out and manure could then be period.
ically spread so as to keep up a good state
of fertility.
The information sought is what kind of
artificial manure will answer the purpose
best, and if these gentlemen would recom
mend a manure giving particulars and stat
ing why such an article would tell better
than any other, they would * benefit and
oblige not only the man who applies for
the information, but a large number of the
great body of agriculturists.—.R Working

Better Times.
From the American Agriculturist.]
" We are rapidly approaching better times.
Already business is improving and there
is a promise of an era of prosperity. Al
though "the melancholy days" of autumn
are come, everything conspires to encour
age us. We have kad a fine season for
folliti.pgittnd our grain.kas gone into
ground in the best condition. The
farm work is generally ahead, and every
farmer is busy. Circumstances generally
have greatly tendered to make farmers
• contented with their position They !lave
been taught, that the farm is a secure
haven in times of business storm and dis
turbance. that the profits of farming, if
not large, are safe and certain. In Neva
da, where farms and gold and silver mines
lie contiguous to each other, it is the farmer
who makes the greater profit, for it is prov
ed by the statistics of the State, that the
capital invested in farms yields a better
and more regular return, than 41oes that
employed in the mining the precious met
als. For one'paying gold mine, there are
fifty that either do not pay, or that totally
ruin the owners. On the contrary, there
is not one farm that does not pay a fair
return, and many that pay richly for good
management. The time is past, for another
long period, when there will be so much
talk about "the boys leaving the farm."
They cannot find a better place, and hun•
dreds of young men are now leaving the
cities to go upon farms. Comfort and
happiness will, as in the past, dwell with
the frugal and industrious, and in the his
of the world the most notable in
stances of private and public virtue, have
been found amongst those whose lives have
been simple, unpretentious, and bbc—lous.
The first battle of the Republic was fought
by farmers, and its great sustaining power
will always consist of the farmers first, who
are the most numerous class of citizens,
and after them the intelligent trrtisans,
meehanies, and other industrious workers.
There are bthirr elniiseS. who Ire equally
useful, but being in a et:it minerity, thus
exert a less influence. Bat the flirmer
who fends AC world, an drilsiiseriiilin latitise
and clothe it, lutist aiwitys:exert a pre
pronderating inllimnee in proportion to the
intelligence they possess, and the skill
with which they perform 'their several
labors.
Care of Harness.
Take neats foot oil and ivory black—the,
latter well pulverized, or to be made so be
fore mi:ag. Mix thoroughly—adding the
black until the oil is well colored, or quite
black. In cool weather the oil should he
warmed somewhat before mixing. With
a sponge apply a light coat of the mixture
—only.what the leather will readily absorb,
unless the harness is very dry—in which
case a heavy coat may be necessary. After
the harness is dry—which will be in from
two hours to a half or whole day, depend
ing upon the weather and previous condi
tion of the leather, wash thoroughly with
soap suds. In making the suds use castile
soap and cold rain water. (Warm water
should never be used on harness leather).
Apply the suds with a sponf.e, Ruh
off with buckskin. This will give your
harness a nice glossy surface, and the leath
er will retain a good color and centinue
pliable for months. If it becomes soiled
with mttd or sweat, an_ application of soap
and water, as above directed (without oil.
ing) will be sufficient to keep harness, as
ordinarily used, in good order.

The SYMPTOMS of Liver Complaint are a bitter or bad
taste in the mouth; Pain in the back, sides or joints, oft
en mistaken for Rheumatism; Sour Stomach; Loss of Ap

Loss of memory, with a painful sen ;adult of having failed
to do something which ought to have been done; Debility,
Low Spirits, a thick yellow appearance of the Skin and
Eyes, a dry cough often mistaken for Consumption.
Sometimes many of these symptoms attend the disease,
at others very few; but the LIVER, the largest organ in
the body, is generally the seat of the disease, and if not
regulated in time, great suffering, wretchedness and death
will mane.

A Budget cif Herne-Made Christmas
Girth.
Who is it that, every year itict nts the
thousand-and tate new and pretty things
which hang on Christmas -trees, and stuff
the toes of Christmas stockings ? Who is
it that has so wise and watchful an eye for
the capacities of little people, and the
tastes of bigger out-s, preyiding for each,
planning. fur tiny par,cs with almost noth
ing in them, as well as wallets stuff
ed with baulk bilis, an;: suggesting some
thing which can he neide.aceepteiand en
joyed by evervbedy, ;urge and small, all
the wide world over ? Who can 4W - that
poQsesses this inexhaustible fertility of in
vention and kit — tdit'es - s - a — heartli No or•
dinary human being, you may be sure.—
Not Father Santa Claus! lie has enough
to do with distributing the presents after
they are made; besides, fancy-work is not
in a man's line,—not even a saint's ! Bat
what so likely as that he should have a
mate, and that it is to her we are indebted
for all this? What an immense work
basket Mother Santa Claus's must be !
What a glancing thimble and swift needle
and thread ! Can't you imagine her
' throwina- ' aside her seiss.ns and spool-bag
to help the dearsaint "tackle up" and load
the sledge ? And who knows but she sits •
behind as he drives over the roofs of the
universe on the blessed eve, and holds the
reins while Santa Claus dispmses to favored
chimneys the innumerable pretty things
which he and she have chucisled over to
gether months and months befiire the rest
of us knew anything about them ?
This is tot a fact. It can't be proved
in any way, fur none of us knows anything
about the Santa Clauses or their abode.
There is no telegraphing, or writing to the
selectmen of their town to inquire about
them; they haven't even a past-office ad
dress. But admitting it to be a fiction, it
is surely a pleasant one; so, afs the'ehildren I
say, "Let's play that it is true," and pro
ceed to see what. Mother Santa Claus has
in her basket Ihr us this year.. We will
first pull out some easy things for the
benefit of little beginners who are not yet
up to all the tricks of the needle ; then
some a little harder fin- the more advanced
class; and, at bottom of all, big girls not
afraid to dive will find plenty of elaborate
designs suited to their taste and powers.
A WALL LETTER HOLDER.
This is something which quite a little
boy could make. Cut out three pieces of
thin wood, a foot long by six incher wide;
smooth and sand-paper two of them, bore
a hole in each corner and in the middle of
one side, and fasten them together with
fine wire, cord, ribbon, or the small brass
pins which are used for holding manu
scripts. The pieces should be held a little
apart. Cut ene end of the third piece
into some ornamental shape, glue it firmly
to the back of one of the others, and sus
pend it from the wall by a hole bored in
the top. It will be found a useful thing
to hold letters or pamphlets. A clever
boy could make this much handsomer by
cutting a pattern over the front, or an ini
tial, or monogram, or name in the middle.
The wood should be oiled or shellacked.
SHOE CASES.
These easr.:s are meant to take the place
of paper when shoes are to be wrapped up
to go in a trunk. They are made of brown
crash, bound with red worsted braid. One
end is pointed so as to turn over and but
ton down, or the top has strings over the
braid to tie the mouth up. There should
be three or four made at a time, as each
holds but one pair of shoes; and you will
find that mamma or your unmarried aunts
will like them very much.
A NEW KIND OF CHRISTMAS-PIE
Nothing can be droller than to hang up
one's stockings, and nothing prettier or
more full of meaning than a Christmas
tree. But for some of you who may like
to make a novelty in thesa time honored
ways, we will just mention that it is good
fun to make a "Christmas pie" in an enor
mous tin dishpan, with a make-believe
crust of yellow cartridge paper, ornament
ed with twirls and flourishes of the same,
held down with pins, and have it served
on Christmas Eve, full of pretty things
and sugar-plums, jokes and jolly little
rhymes fastened in the parcels. The cut
ting should be done beforehand, and hid
den by the twirls of paper ; but the carver
can pretend to use his knif.7 and fork, and
spooning out the packages will insure a
merry time for all at table. And one more
suggestion. Little articles, wrapped in
white paper, can be put inside cakes, bak
ed and iced, and thus furnish another
amusing surprise for the "pie" or the
Christmas tree.—St. Nicholas.
