And give me the root aud luscious fruit, That my own hand's rear for food ; And the Lr, ad so light, and the honey white, And the milk so pure and good ! Tor sweet the bread of Labor i::, When the heart is strong and true, Vnd a blessing will rome to the hearth and home, rf the best we bravely do. Guessing in Panning. it is a Lille surprising that, not withstanding the improvement in nearly everything appertaining to far ming, so little has been effected to wards inducing ianuers to operate in a systematic manner,and keep record and account of their arm operations and business, generally and specific ally. llut for one farmer that does so ninety-nine keep all their accounts "in their heads," and consequently are lightly termed "guess farmers," for they never know, but guess it is so aud so. They don't know whether this,that,or the other crop pays best : whether they can afford to sell their produce at such and such a price, or not. They can't tell if it is for their interest to continue such a course of husbandry, use such fertilizer, culti vate a field in such a manner ; nor even at the end of the year are they sure whether they are on the profit or loss side of the ledger. They guess it is about so. Neighbor Smith came in last even ing while I was filling up my record, and said,as he noticed my occupation: "What you doin I —book-keepin' ?" "Yes ; a little. Fixing up my ac count?. I suppose you keep farm ac counts, don't you ?" "Me ? no. It's too much bother. — 1 can keep my "counts in my head." "Don't yon think it is better to have something you can rely upon ? Any body is apt to forget." "It's well enough for storekeepers aud sich to keep 'counts ; but I don't see no need of a farmer doin' it. "Isn't it as much for our interest to look after our business as it is fur the storekeeper to attend to his ?" "Wall, yes ; I s'pase so,but what's the use of a feller's spending time to write down every thing about what 1m does ?■' "It pays, Smith," "I don't see how." "Well, see here. How was your com crop this year. "Pretty fair : thought the frost hurt it some." "Shall you plant some more next year ?" "Sartin. I alb rs plant corn." "What for ?" "What for? Why, because 1 allers do." "Yes : I sec. Now, Smith, how much did that field of corn pay you?" "Pay me ? Well I guess about—" "That isn't it. Do you know ?" "Well, not exactly : but I caP late—" "Never mind ; but, really now, do you know whether you made or lost money in raising that field of corn ?" "Dunno as 1 do, for sartin." "Now, look here, Smith. There is my 'cornfield record.' I have written down every thing connected with it, and to-day I have summed it all np, and I know all about it. Here is the size of the field, and the kind of soil, what grew on it last year, when and how many times it was ploughed,har rowed and furrowed, and also the amount and kind of manure used,how it was put on, and what I used for top dressing. Then, here is the time of planting ; time and manner of cul tivating : how far apart ; where the rows and hills : number of stalks in the hill ; when the corn came up,and what variety it was ; when it was harvested, etc., etc. And here I have got, in exact figures, the price of every thing counected with it : Plan ting, hoeing and harvesting ; the val ue of the corn, beans, pumpkins and fodder ; value of manure ; rent of land ; and every item set down iu full. So I know exactly how much it cost me to taise that piece of corn ; and, thus, whether it pays me to con tinue raising it under such circum stances." This is only an example. All other farm operations should be recorded in somewhat the same manner, aud then there would be an end of the continual "guessing" and "thinking" uud ignorance in regard to those things we should know about. L'OOKIXO POTATOES. —Professor Blot, in his lectures on cooking,deprecates the practice of cutting off such enor mously thick parings /rum potatjes as is the custom of most people, to save the trouble ol neatly digging out the eye, which lie 3 deep below the surface. The lecturer's caution seems t have been directed simply against a shiftless style of manipula tion, which wasted a certain bulk of potato. If this were the extent of the evil, it would hardly be a serious tault, as potatoes are cheap and plen ty, and the time saved might offset the waste of food. The truth is, however, that almost the sole value of the potato is near surface, ?o near that a very thick peeling would take the biggest part of the nut: imcnt. This is at once tnade obvious by examining a thin slice of potato with a microscope, when the starch grannies will be found lying in the greatest number in a belt just under the skin and decreas ing towards the centre. They are placed here for thenourishme it of the young sprout, which springs from the "eye," and which being like beauty, "only skin detp," is required to go no deeper lor its food during the termi nating process. This starch is,for all practical pur- I'-r'-M, the i stirc nutriment which the potato ' ntaij.H, there being only two per !:e,t of yU,'it,while seventy-five 1/ :e/ U f,U it u*.U r .So If it is wot to Tor, to ,*t ;.* potato at all, < % . > .. ,x j , •>•... * t sumpf)retj Brotfjrr's (fioltimn.
