Alritallural Pepartmast !=i Dons GRAIN -PnTBRIORATE.—Why llOt ? Our SeentiSta - tell us that af 'ter all there is not so much difference between animal and vegetable life as some think. We know that even in ,generation i a half-starved animal will deteriorate, and that three or four generation% of such treatment will dwarf and decrease any race of animals. It is net probablethat'un derthe- same or-similar circumstances grain deteriorate not only - in quantity but in 'quality; No one will deny tat .'such treatment will derease tliejfeld , of the, crop, but rainy deny that it_ will either injure th 6 vitality of the:seed or in any way •cilect - the crop' produced from this .se,efthe crop , is supplied with the,proPer kind of food, .property:; worked and cared for,, we do not be?, Here it will deteriorate any more - tifun in animals. We know of instan cr2. Where the same ,corn has been 'cultivated for .thirty years on 'the I lama farm, an d still far from de teriorating haiincreased produo tion and value. It; is a firm, belief with many (and facts_ see ti to 'sup - port it) that see& taken from a • thin -barren soil,:aud planted hie rich and productive one, will produce better' thaniked 'Which has 'grown therefor, several . arenerations.... - SuAng. Tanis. The,' setting of .shade trcesalong both sides of the) roads in the"farming*districts_ r is• of ten advocated by the rural press, as a means of-increasing . the value -of farins, in consequence of. the pleas antness of such street when the trees_ beCOme large.' There is no mistake in thii opinion ; . anti 'farmers would do f well to 61A - together and set ma= _pies, elms, Ac., along their •• farms, - and see that-'no cattle are allowed run in the highways., :Suppose tlfat a farm e.ttends onithe roadloo rods,' fifty trees-would suffice for ,that and,the trees can be procured , in many places for 50 cents each,. about three inches in diameter, and - 10 or 12 feet high. done smaller should beset, as trees ;of the size-of canes, as are - often planted, grow very slow, and seldom flourish in the highways. Set' none but those; that are of good size rand straight, ,and trustno man to. set them by the, job;: unless you want.half to die-and _the remainder.to dr ag alonk a sickly life. The trees should be set inithe spring, the roots Well preserved - in digging them up, the, tops cut back, Boles dug large, and' good rich soil • filled. in around the Toots, if it has to be brought fromfaneither locality, as it"doesnit pay to slight such work. - - DRYING SWEET CoßN.—Sweet corn Anay'be)dried and cooked in the,winl• ter and spring, and r .,be 'almost a'gocd ns the corn fresh, from . the garden. 'ln the-first:place; pick that which is in good condition for the '.table, put it . in nkettle; and scald by boiling abontfive minutes ;then as sooniaa cold cut it from ?Ile Ohs,' put it Itin plates;-and dry' it in the oven; then put into paper bsgs, and it Will kkep until wanted to cook. Another why is deSeribed by a lady as • follows • " The corn is gathered at the most suitable - state for boiling, not too old and not too green; a thin slice is taken off all around the outside of the ears with a sharp knife, taken,off from every kernel. Then with the' pack of the knife the ears are scrap- ed, taking out all the inside of the kernels, and leavin - fr the skins and lulls on the cobs. leaving milky mass is then spread out on plates, and dried in a quick oieo - , but not so hot as to scorch it. After it is nearly dried it is put into the muslin bags, and hung up around the stoves until ihoroughly•dry. • (loop AnvicE.- . -The--Maine Farm !

THE LARGEST BOOK IN THE WORLD Thi Trustee s the British guseum are'in treaty for the purchase of the copy of the largest book in the world. TOWard the close of i the seventeenth century the reigning Emperor of China appointed ab Imperial Commission to reprint in one vast,collection all native works of interest and impertance in every branch of litera ture., In the beginning , of the following century the Commissioners coinpleted their labors, and were able to lay before ibe. Emperor a • very palpable pfoof of their in the shape of a compila tion consisting of 6;10'6 VOW - fries, entitled "-Kin ting ko4in too shoo teeth ching," •or "An Illustrated Imperial Collection of Ancient and Modern Literature." Only a small edition was printed off in the first instance, and before long the \ greater part of the copper types which I had been'ea!it for the undertaking were \ pu loined by untrustworthy officials, and the remainder' were melted, down and coin into.cash. Accidents by tire and :113 , vie' - nce have considerably reduced the number b copies of the imperial edition originally irinted, and it is believed that only a comparatively few now retnaln ex tant. The Trnstees of the British Muse um having become aware that: one puch copy has' ately i.een offered fbr s..ale at Pekin, have entered into negotiations for its purchase, and it is much to be hoped that they may succeed ha adding this rave and interesting collection \ to the e national library.—London Atheneum.

I have in my possession a book much smaller than that, and as it maybe the smallest, or as small as the smallest, book ever printed, I offer the following -description of it : - It is seven-eighths of one inch long and half an inch wide, "measuring ever all," as the carpenters say, and a little more than one-eighth Of ono inch thick. Its titlepage reads , as follows : " Schlotts's English Dijon Almanac for- 1842, -poetic ally illustrated by the Ron. Mrs. Norton; published bi A. Schloss, Fancy Stationer , t? H. R. IL, the Dchs. of -Kent,.l2 Dem ers street, Oxford str." The book is il lustrated with portraits of the Princess Royal of England; thentm infant, Charles Dickens, Rachel, Herr . Standigl, Ellen Tree and John Murray. The type with which the book is printed 'is smaller than any that I have ever seen, and was prob ably east especially for this and similar books, but small - as it is it is 'perfectly legible to pertioits of ordinarily good sight.
