The Night Before the Mowing.
All shimmering in the morning shine,
And diamonded with dew,
And quivering in the scented wind
That thrills its green heart through—
The little field, the smiling field,
With all its flowers a blowing,
How happy looks the golden field,
The day before the mowing !
And still 'neath the departing light,
Twilight, though void of stars,
Save where, low westering, Venus hides
From the red eye of Mars ;
How quiet lies the silent field,
With all its beauties glowing ;
Just stirring—like a child asleep—
The night before the mowing !
Sharp steel, inevitable hand,
Out keen, cut kind I Our field
We knew full well must be laid low,
Before its wealth it yield ;
Labor and mirth and plenty blest
Its blameless death bestowing;
And yet we weep, and yet we weep,
The night fiefoie the mowing.
Failures in Tree Planting.
There are various causes of failure in
setting out trees. Taking them up badly;
chopping off the roots too much ; allowing
them to dry before replanting; leaving too
much head; neglect of due preparation of
soil; digging the holes too small ; omitting
to press the earth firmly around the roots ;
allowing the wind to move them backward
and *limo, disturbing the fibers. This
is a intently formidable catalogue of
evils, t there is yet another cause of
failure, more fruitful than any yet named,
and that is planting too deeply. On no
account should a tree ever be planted lower
down in the earth than it was before, and
if moved from a dry soil tc a moist on€, it
siould be set shallower. In fact it is
better to err, if at all, on the side Gf
shallowness, because the law of growth
will correct that evil, while there is no
remedy for too deep planting. A tree
soon adapts itself to its position if not set
too far down into the ground. When the
surface is drj the roots naturally descend
in search arliotpture, and will keep going
down tal the k find it. When the soil is
wet the roots will run along the surface.
Too deep planting is burial. The roots
are out of reach of sun and air, and though
the tree may struggle for awhile it will
eventually die. To guard against the
effects of the shallow planting, stakes must
be put down and the tree fastened to them.
They will soon become strong enough to
stand alone.—Exchange.
Items for Farmers.
FEEDING LITTLE PlGS.—Young pigs
should be fed a little at a time and often
—this is the secret of rapid growth. If
allowed all they will eat, they will gorge
themselves and bring on colic or become
pot-bellied and stunted, when if the feed
was divided into two or three feedings,
they would digest it without derangement
of the stomach, and grow well.
SICK FOWLS.—The comb of a fowl is
the pulse. When the fowl is in health
the comb is firm, though full of blood, and
a bright scarlet color. If the bird be
diseased, the comb is limp, weak, soft and
pale pink at times ; and at others a purple.
COAL TAR.—Gas coal tar is the most
healing and valuable remedy to apply to
flesh wounds on our domestic animals that
can be found, and no farmer should ever
be without a supply of it on hand. It is
a boon for animals, and farmers too, as it
is so easily applied and so certain in its
curative effects.
DEEP CULTIVATION.—We do not real
ize that deep and thorough pulverization
is equivalent to a chemical change of soil.
The more the particles of earth are sepa
rated and exposed to the sun the higher
they become electrified; they inhale the
air freely and carry the surplus water
deeper.
GOOD BUTTER.—It is easier to make
good butter when all the conditions are
understood and all the facilities are furn.
ished, as they should be, than to make a
poor quality. There is less actual work
involved in making the article, and it is
of mudh greater value.
The Age and Teeth of Cattle.
The _Agricultural Gazette, of London,
has published some illustrated articles in
reference to the age of cattle, as indicated
by their teeth, which an American paper
says confirms the observations made by
the late Dr. Martin, of Kentucky, upwards
of forty years ago. He was then breeding
short-horns, and one of his neighbors hav
ing been unjustly accused of deception in
stating the ages of his improved animals,
Dr. Martin began the inspection of his
own and several other herds, and after a
thorough 'sifting of the whole matter, he
ascertained that as short-horn cattle mature
so much earlier than natives, their teeth
keep pace with this, and at two or three
years old will generally show the same
marks as the unimproved cattle of the
country at the age of four and five years.
The Gazette gives instances of a still greater
difference. "The permanent dentition,"
it says, "is often completed in a bull of the
most advanced type at three years of age,
instead of five or six years, according to
the old standard." It is believed this will
hold good in the case of sheep, pigs and
other kinds of animals.
THZ Ohio Farmer speaking of the bane
fal effects of the fast horse mania upon the
morals of the young men of the country,
says :
"Suppose the young man's highest hopes
to be realized, and he finds himself the
possessor of a horse that can trot his mile
inside of 2:25. What is it that makes
this horse more valuable than he would be
if he could only make the mile in 2:40 ?
There can be but one answer—that he may
be used for gambling purposes. No one
wants, or expects to drive a horse such a
gait, except in a race, nor can it be done
save at the peril of life and limb. For all
useful or legitimate purposes the 2:40
horse is every whit as valuable, for speed
alone as the 2:25 horse."
A QuitiN bee will lay 200 eggs daily,
for 59 or 60 days, and the eggs are hatch
ed in three days. A single queen bee has
been stated to produce one hundred thous-
And bees in a season.

The Four Anchors.
The night is dark, but God, my God,
Is here and in command
And sure am I, when morning breaks,
1 shall be "at the land."
And since I know the darkness is
To him as sunniest day,
cast the anchor Patience,
And wish—but wait—for day.
Fierce drives the storm, but winds and waves
Within his Laud are held,
And, trusting in Omnipotence,
My fears are sweetly quelled.
If wrecked, I'm iu his faithful grasp ;
I'll trust him, though he slay ;
So, letting go the anchor Faith,
I'll wish—but wait—for day.
Still seem the moments dreary, long ?
I rest upon the Lord ;
1 muse on his "eternal years,"
And feast upon his word ;
His promises, so rich and great,
Are my support and stay ;
I'll drop the anchor Hope ahead,
And wish—but wait—for day.
O wisdom infinite! 0 light
And love supreme, divine I
How can I feel one fluttering doubt,
In hands so dear as thine?
I'll lean on thee my best beloved,
My heart on thy heart lay ;
And casting out the anchor Love,
I'll wish—and wait—for day.
—Christian Messenger
- - l
Wait.
Wait, husband, before you wonder
audibly why your wife don't get along
with the household responsibilities "as
your mother did." Elle is doing her best,
and no woman can endure that best to be
slighted. Remember the long, weary
nights she sat up with the little baby
that died. Remember during that long
fit of sickness. Lo you think she is made
of cast iron ? Wait, wait in silence and
forebearance, and the light will come back
to her eyes—the old light of the holidays.
Wait, wife, before you speak reproach
fully to your husband, when he comes home
late and weary and "out of sorts." He
has worked hard for you all day—perhaps
far into the night. He has wrestled,
hand to hand, with care and selfishness,
and greed, and all that follow the train of
money-making. Let home be another
atmosphere entirely. Let him feel that
there is no other place in tLe world where
he can find peace and perfect love.
A HUNDRED years ago a distinguished
company of French infidels in the flush of
their rising fame wero assembled in a
Parisian drawing-room discussing Chris
tianity and denouncing it with all possible
asperity. Suddenly one of the boldest
among them, the famous Diderot rose from
his seat and exclaimed right,
gentlemen ; all right' I am ready to
declare all of you are clever writers and
competent critics, and few in France or
abroad would be able to speak or write
better than you do. But still * I think
I might defy any of you to compose a
historical tale so ingenious, and so sublime,
so touching, and fit to produce such a deep
and lasting influence for centuries to come
as the Gospel relation of Christ's suffering
and death."
THERE are impetuous good people ;
fickle good people ; unwise good people ;
let us say it out, foolish good people, who
lack wisdom and do not know that they
lack it. A certain sober judgment ought
to mark Christians. They should be like
the needle in the mariner's compass, not
like the pendulum, which, within its lim
ited range, is always going from one ex
treme to another. They should startle
people with paradoxes, not banish all con.
fideece in them by the wildness with which
they unfold their ideas to minds quite
unprepared.
Now, just as the gates were opened to
let in the men, I looked after them, and
behold, the city shone like the sun ; the
streets also were paved with gold, and in
them walked many men with crowns on
their heads, palms in their hands, and
golden harps to sing praises withal. There
were also them that had wings, and they
answered one another without intermission,
saying, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord/
And after they had shut up the gates;
which when I had seen, I wished myself
among them.—Bunyan.
"Bear ye one another's burdens."
"For every man shall bear his own burden."
Says George McDonald in the Vicar's
Daughter : "Two different Greek words
are here translated by the English word
burden. We are to bear one another's
burdens of pain, or grief, or misfortune,
or doubt—whatever weighs one down is
to be borne by another; but the man who
is tempted to exalt himself over his neigh
bor is taught to remember that he has his
own load of disgrace to bear and answer for."
ALL good men stand agreed as to the
unspeakable importance of the temperance
reform. There can hardly be a question
that all Christian men and women ought
to make every possible effort to prevent
the increase of drunkenness, and to reclaim
the wretched victims of its power.
WHEN we overcome evil with good,
then do we gain the victory which over
comes the world.
HAVE the courage to do without that
which you do not need, however much
your eyes may covet it.
THE Love of Jesus! What it is, none
but His loved ones know.— Saphir.
Two Noted Grave Robbers.
Our readers will remember the account
given in these columns of the robbing of
the grave of the Hon. Scott Harrison, in
Ohio, last May, the body being found in
the dissecting room of the Ohio Medical
College. Public indignation justly brands
any man as a scoundrel who will rob the
grave of the dead. But there are two
noted grave robbers in the country, so far
from being the subjects of the people's
wrath, are universally lauded for their
virtues. The reason is plain. While the
former class steal the dead bodies of our
loved ones to submit them to the dissecting
knife, these only rob the graves to restore
the living victims to our hearts and homes.
There names—Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi
cal Discovery and Pleasant Purgative
Pellets—are household words the world
over. The Golden Medical Discovery
cures consumption, in its early stages, and
all bronchial, throat, and lung affections;
Pleasant Purgative Pellets are the most
valuable laxative and cathartic.
