DRIFTWOOD, A urrr.a Democratic weekly in the State of New York priiitn in editorial beaded " Advice to Garfield." It the President doesn't both Tad and heed it, he will be pretty mead ; because the-edi tor was compelled to crowd out a liver pad advertisement to make room for the article.. Presidents little know the self sacrificing nature of some editors.—Nor. r Moir n Herald. A youlia lady has a Sunday-school class of rather bright boys averaging' between p,even and nine years. Recently she re , quested each pupil to come on the follow ing Sunday with some 'passage of Scrip ture bearing upon love. The lads heeded the requeit; and in turn recited their verses bearing' upt.n that popular topic, such as " Love your enemies," . " Little children, love ono another," etc. The teacher said to the boy whose turn came last, " Well, Robbie, what , ls your verse Rising, he responded;:' rn Song of Soloon,- second chapter; fifth ' . verse—' Stay we wita flagons, comfort Mc with apples : for . I am sick of lore.' menrracrour foi'ttirning out bone less codfish has been started in Boston. It is an industry that should be - encour aged, and it should also be.persuaded to in clude shad in its prOducts. If it can cap ture all the shad in all our rivers, remove the bones, add then replace the nth in the waters, it will have accomplished agrea er work in the cause of religion than if it bad built a cathedral costing ten million dollars. A boneless shad would not en courage profane thoughts at the breakfak table and. make more backsliders in a month than could be reconverted in a year.-2 orrittown Wrriti:li t very short period. Colonel ThetnaPqA. Scott, who has always enjoy ed a-reputation for munificent deeds, had bestowed the sure of *150,000 upon four off PhiladelPhia's most favored. institu tions. The Orthopedic .

The gift of he University of Pennsylvania has enabled the Trustees to endow the chair f)f Mathematics, riow occupied by Profes sor Kendall.

A7:youNo Bible student • was a.ked : " HOW many ix=are there iu youi class:" He replied : If you Multiply number Jacob's sons by the num ber:of times Which the Israelites compas id Jericho, and add to the product the number of measures of barley which Boaz gaveltut, divide this by the number of Ilairlan'i sow:, subtract the number of eaeli.-kind of cleau beasts that went into theltrk, multiply by the number of meu that4ent to seek Elijah after he was tak en to" leaven ; subtiaofrom this Joseph's agdaf4e time he stood before Pharaoh, adtPtie number of stones in David's bag hakilledkilled Golialnrsubtract the num ber of furlongs that Betitan) was distant from Jerusalem, divide by the number - ni anchors cast out when Paul was ship wrecked, subtract the number of persons saved in the ask and -the remainder will be the answer.'', A i;oon story is told of General „Put nam, the Revolutionary hero„ in Fotney's '• Anecdotes of Public Men." Ile 'ac cepted-a challenge and fixed the time, and as his antagonist approached be wa. greeted with a shot from Putnam's gun at thirty rod. - As Putnain was reloading his iece his adversary approached and said, "What are you about to do? Is this the conduct or. an American soldier and a man of honor?' What am I about to do?' was the reply of the general ; 4.a pretty question to put to a man -you in tend to murder ! lam about to kill you : and if you do not fight In less time than it takes old Heath to hang a Tory you :11C a gone dog.' Of' cOtirse the other turned and ran away. The second affair was with a Bash officer who challdnged him. Putnam accepted, .tired the; time and plo.Ce, and .when 'the Englishman found him he was seated near' a barrel, apparently containing powder, smoking his pipe. The general requested hint to take a seat on the other side'of the cask, - :und then set lire to a match communicat lug with the contents of thejbarrel. - The - officer looked at the burning fuse and re tired. As he moved off the general said : "You are just as brave as I took you to be ; this is nothing but a-barrel of onions with a few grains of powder on the t(rp, to try you by ; but you don't like. the smell." rfiE New• York Telfgraia of March :9t -. says : "A startling discovery was- made in Hoboken to-day in the post IpOrtClll ex amination on the death of Mrs. Adolph - • llouhois, - of 211 Washington street.

" A DII•PATCH fiom 'Munson, Wisconsin, dated March 29th, says the Governor of Wisconsin to-day signed the bill- i l eiehtly pad by the Legislature prohibiting the • practice of treating."

The active work of the year, 'has ,flow begun over a large part of the country, The plough is already in thousands of fields, au& would be in many more were it, not for the . sod. den soil, Never turn - the soil when so wet that, it will _bake into hard lumps. The soil. is - too Wet to be plowed whenever the mould-board is smeared; does, not 'keep . clean and bright while passing - through the fur row. A soil that is late in becoming dry. enough for the plow, needs draining. The success of a crop largely depends ution'the proper pre paration4 the seed-beds. The soil most not: only be loose, deep, and melloW, bdt it should contain all the essential elements , of plant food, and these in an available form. This re- quires thorough tillage -- plowing; harrowing. ete.--and a good supply of well-rotted manure or its equiva lent in some other form. It is folly to expect - good 'crops Trom a poorly prepareillsoil,, and one lacking the food upon which the plants can feed. There are two general kinds of farming, with all gradations between —the extensive land ,the intensive. The former term is applied to that style of farming in which a large area of soil ie expected to produce a, medium crop. The farms are' large, - . and the attention given to any single . here is small, both as to tillage . and. .manure.. This kind of farthing in chides muck of that at present pracq: Lice& in the Western and far - West _ern States. It may be the best--at least the most profitable for'the Ares.. ent,-but in time the soil will become appreciably exhausted, and a new kind of dealing with the soil will be imperative. hotrnsit•f!.' farming'• is wher' a•large athount of products is. obtained, from a—sierall ! area ;'t.116 at tention to each acre• in manure and tillage being comparatively great. This is some styled "hiih farming," butt' by this is meant, strictly,. the grLtest gains for the least outlay, and it may be either extensive or in tensive. 'Bah have their place in Our - agriculture, as' each . pays in its proper place. • .The first grain crop to be put into , the ground is spring wheat,- and this should be sown as soon as the ground can be made ready. Out; cifits pro per district, marked by(climate, of no use, to_ gro. spring wheat.- There arc other crops: that are sun: , and give, much better returns.' Oats should come inimediately after sluing wfieat in lime....eof sowing. • Success with oats in our hot climate largely • depends upon early sowing. ,The - cooler climate of Canada..and New BrunsWiek is more favorable for oats, where they are plumper and much heavier than those grown •in most parts of the United States. By n'sing seed from the Northern localities above mentioned we can groW -heavi er and 'better oats than when our' own seed is sown.. The aim should be to harvest 30 .to 60 bushels per acre.. This can be obtained by.hav ing the soil rich and -in good .condi tion and sown with about: three bush els of the best seed. Oats are a suc cessful crop in the faris,Southern States, as they. can .. be e . sown and e theirmak growth in winter • and the t • crop kept, out of the way of hot weather. • . Barley, under favorable conditions, is a reliable an&profitable crop, and should not be 'considered simply as Material for, brewing. There is ino better grain to . feed horses; ind when ground with coin it makes a most excellent feed for cattle and growing swine. The two . lowed varieties, yield more than the six-rowed,' .but brings somewhat less - in. the market. -The grain -should% be sown thickly, two and one-half buShels per acre. Bar-. ley will succeed in any good, well prepared soil, but it prefers . a mellow, clay loam, in good, tilth. • . • --e Corn planting comes. later in, the spring, as it requires a warm soil, for theegiain to germinate, and suffers from late frosts The time of plant ing of course varies with the.locality,, and the soil can be prepared in reach tress for the settled, weather. Sod turned under, not too . deeply, is considered as the best 'for •corn, but excellent - crops can be grown upon stubble, provided there is a good supply of manure given to take the' place of the Vegetable mat ter of the rotting grass, 'etc., of the , turned sod. Beets, including Mange's, . he put in very early. Therdis*uch i difference of opinion as to the advan- .tage of soaking 'and . sprouting the see:ls .before sowing them. If; thus treated they should be - carellull3;•! watched; and be sown as soon as the Minute germ, or sprout, appears on a few of them., Drying with fine. gyp sum' (land plaster) will - Make the ,t sowing easy. This treatment will en sure , quick germination, and the . - • young plants will get the start of the weeds. • As soon as the plants.are up sufficiently for the rows to be . seen; run a hand cultivator between thern - 1 and within an inch or so of the plants. This will• leave a •strip next to the rows to be treated witlihand-hocs..; Use a horse-hoe for most of tlAwl'atO c cultivation. The manufacture of beet,- sugar. promises- success, provided . enough roots are giown, in any one locality_ to make it profitabletoC:eet the necessary buildings and. machine ry for extracting the sugar: 'This needs co-operation among the farm-' ers thcmielves, and between them and the manufacturers; upon this the success of . beet spgar Waking in our, country depends.. Farmers : have so thoroughly learn ed how , to manage the potato-beetle u that it is not necessary to plant early with a view :to escape its ravages. But it is well to plant early, especial ly if the crop is,to be sold; and there is a ready market. The. earliest pays the bet, and the, one who is first gets •the dream of the market. The Early ! Rose still'holds its rank among the most desirable varities. • The most essential crop upon a farm is grass. The better the system of farming the more important will grass become, both in its own value and the good etre& it has : upon the soil and' the crops that are to follow it._ Our farmers have bot, given prop er attention to the study 01 the differ entgrasses and the. soils best fitted' for each. Meadows and pastures, to do their best, 'often,/ need -a' little stimulating fertilizer -Tirolmndred pounds of Guatfo, or or - NitTate of Soda, often : . more tliaa 'double the crop, and returns _a large profit on the coil.. Improved grais lands mean more milk, cheese, butter, and beef, arid a fain with a rich, never-failing permanent pasture is one where live stook will thrive, and the owner of it is sure to baprosperotts. Look well to the grass land. Cows with calf_. should receive special care both as to feed and hand ling.
