Far off in the meadow the daisies white,
With buttercups glow in the morning light,
The tree blossoms shake from their cups the dew,
And miles below to the violets blue;
For spring her come, though she tarried long,
And filled the air with the voice of song.
The rummer mutes from her coy retreat,
And the roses bloom 'neath her dancing feet,
While the lily leans o'er the lake below,
Dipping her hands in its crystal flow,
And the apple blossoms of early spring,
Fair globes of gold in the sunshine swing.
The grain is white on the far off bill,
Though the May bird's carol is bushed and still;
The reapers press through the falling leaves,
And gather the weight of the harvest sheaves,
And autumn reaps from her golden store
The fruit the blossoms of springtime bore.
But I—l have sported the hours away,
From the opening morn 'till the close of day,
'Till beautiful autumn came at last,
And gave me the fruit of the weary past;
The summer and harvest their work have done,
But mine is unfinished, and scarce begun.
And I ask to-day, when life's spring is o'er,
And its lessons of hope are taught no more,
Wkeik_berpummer has flown on airy feet,
May I reed.her miefen and mine—complete,
And in perfect trust may I waiting see
The grain of life's harvest bend for me.

The Cost of Wheat.
PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT OF AN 01110
FARMER, WITH THE RESULTS.
Correspondence of the Ohio Farmer.]
My wheat is threshed and sold, and as
I have kept an account of expenses, I can
show to the dollar what the profit is. I
wish the reader to understand that there
is no guess work about this, for the ac
count was kept regularly with the wheat
and the wort charged as it was done.
Thy wheat has all been weighed but 13
sacks, which we kept for seed, and we
estimatS i thena at just what the others
averageo,4tsd 'our sack were all filled alike,
four half Inishels, thresher's measure in
each mite. 1 have also measured the land
wars surveyor's chain, and find that what
I called the six-acre field, measures six and
five-eights acres. The small field measures
just twit acres. My estimates of the cost
of the two acres was $3O 40, and of the
larger field $77; but as there is five-eights
of an acre more than I had supposed, I
will add $5 to cover the extra expenses,
and $3 for hauling to the mill (one And a
half miles), where I sold it. The expense
then, of this wheat crop is as follows :
Two-sere field, as previously reported
Six and five-eighth acres
Hauling to the mill
Total slls 40
233 bushels of wheat at 85 cents per pushel 195 50
Net profit
I have made no charge for hauling and
threshing, for the reason that the straw is
worth far more than this cost. I estimate
that I have fifteen tons of straw, and the
cost for hauling, stacking and threshing is
as follows :
Two hinds and team w; `i boy on stack two
days
Threshing 230 bushels at 5 cents per bushel 11 50
Nine extra hands half a day at $1 25 per
day 5 62
Board, seventeen meals at 25 cents 4 25
Wood for engine 1 00
Total ...... ....
This would only make the straw cost
about $2 per ton, and I certainly would
not sell it for double that money.
Now let us see what the per cent. of
profit is on this crop. I value the six and
five eighths acres at $6O per acre, and the
two acres at $75 per acre, making $541,25,
and the.profit was 880,10, which is a little
over fourteen per cent. ; and as in my es
timate of expenses I had already allowed
eight per cent. for the use of the land,
this is certainly a good showing. My
former estimate was, that this wheat cost
ne iky- nine cents a bushel, but the field
over - tun-my estimate and reduced the cost
to *ion fifty cents a bushel.
Two,yeara ago my wheat averaged ten
bushebi-ito the acre; last year seventeen
bushels; and this year it is between twenty
six and twenty seven bushels to the acrii
Canned Fruit.
Use only fresh fruit, and that which is
perfectly ripe, not too soft, but just right
to eat well. Fill your cans full of fruit ;
put your cans in a kettle of cold water;
put a few iron rings in the bottom of the
pot to prevent the cans from breaking;
then put over a slow fire at first, making
it hotter after the fire has become hot.
Too great a heat at first will crack the cans
at the bottom. Meanwhile, make a nice
syrup of white sugar, and when your fruit
is half done cooking, pour your syrup ovir
the fruit in the cans, and continue boiling
until done; remove from the fire and seal.
Somepeopie cook their fruit before putting
in cans, but it does not preserve its natural
flavor so well, neither will the syrup be as
clear. Cooking the fruit in the cans is
the proper way of canning fruit in my
e3tiznation. I use half a pound of sugar
t) a quart jar of fruit; cherries, peaches,
pears and raspberries will do with six
ounces. Cook quart jars twenty to thirty
minutes according to hardness of fruit.
Keep watch of your cans while boiling,
and as fast as the fruit in the can lowers ,
fill up with well-ripened fruit; next morn
ing test your jars; if they do not hold,
boil them over again. In ten days from the
tune of canning teat your fruit again, and
if the oover holds them it will keep for
years, as I have some now nearly four
years old, which look as if they might
keep four years longer. By testing ten
days after canning you will never be
awakened in the night by a loud report as
of a gun going off, as I have heard people
tell about, and breaking some half dozen
- cans nearest to it. Keep your cans in a
cool, but not damp place.—Fruit Recorder

VEGETINE.
PURIFIES THE BLOOD AND GIVES
STRENGTH.
MR. 11. R. ISTF.VENS
Dear Sir—Your "Yegetine" has been doing wonders
for me. Have been having the Chills and Fever, con
tracted in the swamps of the South, nothing giving me
relief until I began the use of your Vegetine, it giving
me immediate relief, toning up my system purifying
my blood, giving strength ; whereas all other medicines
weakened me, and filled my system with .poison • and 1
am satisfied that if families that live in the ague districts
of the South and West would take Yegetine two or three
times a week, they would not be troubled with the
"Chills" or the malignant Ferere that prevail at certain
times of the year, save doctors' bills, and live to a good
old age. Respectfully yours,
J. E. 'MITCHELL,
Agent Henderson's Looms, St. Lou* Mo.
ALL DIMASEB OF THE BLOOD. If Vegetine will relieve
pain, cleanse, purify, and cure such diseases, restoring the
patient to perfect health, after trying different physicians,
many remedies, suffering for years, is it not conclusive
proof, if you are a sufferer, you can be cured ? Why Is thin
medicine performing such great cures? It works in the
blood, in the circulating fluid. It can truly be called the
Great Blend Purifier. The great source of disease origi
nates in the blood ; and no medicine that does not act
directly upon it, to purify and renovate, has any just
claim upon public attention.
VEGE TINE
HAS ENTIRELY CURED ME OF
VERTIGO.
H. IL STEVENS :-
Dear Sir,-1 have used several bottles of "Vegetlne" ;it
has entirely cured me of Vertigo. I have also used it for
Kidney Complaint. It is the best medicine for kidney
complaint. I would recommend it as a blood purifier.
N. YOCUM.
PAIN AND Dtsr.AsE. Can we expect to enjoy good health
when bad or corrupt humors circulate with the blood,
causing pain and disease; and these humors, being depos
ited through the entire body, produce pimples, eruptions,
ulcers, indigestion, costiveness, headaches, neuralgia,
rheumatism, and numerous other complaints ? Remove
the cause by taking Vegetine, the most reliable remedy
for cleansing and purifying the blood.
VEGETINE
I BELIEVE IT TO BE A GOOD MED.
XaNIA, 0., March 1, 1877.
Ma. STEVENS:
Dear Sir,—l wish to inform you what your Vegotine has
done for me. I have been afflicted with Neuralgia, and
after using three bottles of the Vegetine was entirely re
lieved. I alai, found my general health much improved.
1 believe it to be a good medicine. Yours truly,
FRED. HARVERSTICK.
Vegetine thoroughly crndicates every kind of humor
and restores the eutire system to a nealthy condition.
