Is the matter of cult ■itiui/ i rti ! b't n if , i.yi we practice what we preach, and at the time of this writ big. just one wci k after th< corn was planted, the hat rows are going over the cornfield in n most thorough manner. Then is no other time be tween rornplanting and corn cutting when so thorough and effective cul tivation can be done at -o little ex pense. T II r llurnl ,V'ir ) orl.rr takes but little stock in Millet, as appears frotn this: We liavc grown ,t and Hungarian (irass, which i* also a millet, for three years on light soil, and have never succeeded in obtaining a satis factory yield. In one case we at tributed this to the fact that the land was not well prepared ; in an other to drought, though it is said to withstand drought well, and in the third instance to poor land and poor preparation. Writers instruct us to sow in June with the assurance it will mature in 60 days, or less. That is true, but we have never aeen even a fair yield on any kind of land if grown during a very dry season. ()i r readers will remember that the tenant house on the Pkmockat's farm was burned last fall, and that wo improved the occasion to preach a little sermon upon the importance of insuring. Last week we finished building a new bouse, to lake the place of the burned one, and the inan who is to occupy it is just now oom fartabij settled in it. The few months expcrfcn<e of doing without s bouse j lias more than ever convinced us of | the propriety and advantage of em j ploying married men as farm laborers, and furnishing tliem with comfort* i able houses. The house just com pleted, though neither large nor ex i pensive, is Comfortable, handsome in j its way, conveniently arranged, and has already proven itself an induce nient to a rjuoil inun to seek employ ment with us. In building it we have proven, to our own satisfaction, at least, that an inexpensive house may be made ornamental to the farm, convenient for it* occupants, and a thorough comfort to its owner. The outside is of unpinned boards, bat tened. Tie inside is all of oak. I loors, sides and ceilings arc oak, planed,matched and leaded. IJctwci n the outside boarding and the wains coting i* a complete layer of build ing paper. The joists f.<r tli" floor of the second story are planed and beaded on the lower corner*, and the lbeir hoardan-plan- i and b< -td< 1 on the lower side, and const.rule a lin i*ln <1 and decidedly handsome ceil ing. All the inside work is 1< ft the natural color of the wool, but is covered with a hard finish known as "I'elbuudi'i-," made by tin Avert, l Chemical I'aint Co. The outside i~ ; thoroughly painted two coats, w.th A vei ill < hcmi'-al I'a.nt, which after i an i xpeiicnec of 'welvc \i ars We hi lii ve to In- U,. most durable, and therefore economical, paint in use. When the question of wh.' paint should be un d upon the house pre si nti I it*elf. it was promp.lv s< uli <1 by inspecting plow*, barrows, culti vator- and wagons which o- painted with it twelve years ago, arid upon wliii-h. having lsi n n r> gular farm use ivi r sinei, it w - f nd to be in excellent condition. Having : it n • rnitti i a check to tie dealers, in cash payment for the paint, w. feel at liberty to sj, ; ,k thu- strongly in its favor for the benefit of those of our n a-ii r- who have painting to do* without rendering nur-elves liabh to the charge of "puffing."

Increase of Moisture by Cultiva tion. V A UMITI NF, F LLTTII' LMI'T • UQII I'ass over a fii Id well fallowed during Suinmi i by repi ated plowing*, and you find everywlieie moist earth an inch or two below the surface. \\ hy lb-cause the atmosphere, charged more or less with moisture, has penetrated, and condensation has taken from it the water it carried in. i Set a pitcher of ire water nn tin table nnd in a few moments the pitch er will lie covered with drops of wafer. The surface has not leaked* there is the full amount of water in it, but the colder temperature has operated to condense on tho pitcher part of the wafer held by air in the room. Precisely tbo same thing oc curs in a drained and loosened soil We cultivate and hoe corn and pota toes, not to change the relative posi silion of earth with reference to the plants, but to change its character— i to make dry earth moist through condensation of Vapor constantly passing or entering the soil when in condition to receive it.

TJI.-Tl.' 11. '• V.T, I ~,. The common garden practice of picking cucumbers and beans before they form seeds enables the plants to form many more of the mere cases of 1 seeds, which are the parts we use. ! So by suppressing shoots and blos soms of the tomato which cannot ft ripen we have finer fruits from those already set. And by thinning grajs-s, > or fruits in general, and stopping superfluous extension, we secure largo, hundwome, completely filled out, juicy, and full-flavored speci mens.

M n who niakt mom y. especially in farming, are least inclined to pay it out merely for show. It may Ire safely put down as a general rulo that the work performed by most thrifty farmers is in the direction of profit : hence, as neatne-a common ly goes with thrift, it is quite ss like ly to lx* one of its cause's as one of its < irects. There arc exceptions to this rule, as to all others. Some farmers accumulate money still more rapidly, not by increasing their in come. but by a system of grinding parsimony, by robbing themselves and cheating their families to put dollars in their purse. Tlu'se are not examples to be imitated. The aim of most reasonable men is not only to mske money, but In the mean i time to live in a reasonable and com fortable manner. To accomplish these objects it Is not difficult to prove that neatness is essential. TIIK iron which is common in most clav soils is an eflcctual anti* j dote to Paris green poison.
