Is it best to plant as early as poasibla or to defer this work as long as oaa bo surely doner This is a queatfen in which all farmers are interested sod lo which etch yoar tbeyare praetloally obliged to reply. While there are muoy adrocatesfor eseb of those ex tremes, 1 think there is a "golden mesa ' wbioh will lead te much bet ter results. Either of tbo extremes Is open to grave objections, which do not lie apsinst a tioio half way be tweon. It is true, as the advocates of esily planting; clam, that if tbo seed is got into the ground very early, the worx is done ana out ot the way oi other things which then nood atten tion, if tit tha objections of this eourga are that the ground sod weather are so cold early 10 the season that the seed either rots in the ground or else Is a long while in eomtog up oftoo fails a prey to wire worms ; tbe pleats: it sny spnosr, are tender and grow very slowly, wbite tbe weeua, whion are mora bar ay, at once go lo and possess the land.

Ik'foro I commnnco my story I will iutroduce mysolf to voit. My imnio is AutfUHlus Evorgrcuii, and thoitch don't know what your oamo may be, it is no luoro tbiin fair that you should know who is falling the ntoiy you aro going to road, as it ia a truo ona. My wife has a iienn'lnr Imliit of looking under tbo bod each night bo- fore routing and what I am going to toll yon is how I found it out Ixiforo we wore raarriod, and without her knowing it. 1 was not baa-looking wlicn l was in my twenties. I think I mav go further, and say that "Ons hver- green was a decided favorite among the girls or Oakvillo, and I really be lievo that I could have hod any of thorn "for tbe asking. ' Sirs. Ever green is not present, and so I will indulge my thoughts somewhat more freely than would otherwise bo tho case. I don't think that I cared par ticnlarly for any of tho Oakvillo girls, however, and I might have kept my heart whole to this day if it bad not been for tho circumstances which I am about to relate. Fred Evans, who had boon my chum at school, came to make a vimt at Oakville for "a day or two,' as bo said, when he camo 1 but be made it a week or two easily enough after I'd taken him about a little among the "young ladies." Whou that timo had expired Fred said bo roally must go, as he didn't know what his fatbor and mother would think of his long absence! but it ended in his relieving their anxiety by a letter and Bonding for bis trunks.1 1 know how tha nut ter was perfectly well, and that Bollo Uronson bad bewitehod hirn out of his Ave senses. Fred tried to put it on tho "country air and tho quiet winch waa benefiting bta bealtlu etc.," but it was no una trying to de ceive me, and I told Lira so. Then he ownod np frankly, and I promisod to help bim all I could, if he required any help in the prooecution of his suit I never thought Belle a flirt, or that she would willingly distross any human being; but she hod a way of looking in one's eyes as if to cap tivate them, for her mora personal amusement At any rate she had a larger share of beaux than the otlior girls, but all their attentions came to nothing. I feared it might bo so with Fred Evans, and warned hitu accordingly but Fred said he'd 'have . hor if be triodall his life," that "with I out hor, life was naugh to him;" that "she was the only livinjr beins whn had ever awakened a roul emotion in his breast," etc., etc. After that I said no more, but closely observed the lovers, and soon came to tho conclusion that Fred was by no means disagreeable to hor. Things went on in this way without any defi nite result until Frodreoeivod a sud den summons home on acoonnt of his mother a illness. When ho came back to renew his visit ho insisted upon staying at tha Oakville Hotel rather than wear out bis welcome at our house, and finding remonstrances unavailing, there he wont The landlord (honest old Drwnsbnry I woudor if ho yet lives) gave Fred, at mv suggestion, his best bed room No. 20" I am particular in men tioning tho number.

"Auy frieud of yours, Mostor Augustus, shall havo the best I have to give as long aa I'm landlord.1' It waa a pleasant room, looking ont on the distant kills and the beautiful wind ing branch of the Block water 1 but what cared Fred for aoenery f he was in tlm hands of tho blind god. and could not aee even aa far aa his nose, ecxept in tho direction of Belle's cottage. I used to go over to Fred's room and smoke my oigar, whilo he, poor wretch expatiated on hia sufforiogs,doubts and solioitudes Did she lovo him f that woa the question which disturbed every mo ment of his existence, and to which, with the closest reasoning, he could not bring himself a satisfactory re ply. Souiotiiue lis thought a word or a sign settled tho point beyond a doubt in his favon at others he fan cied ho read a coolness aud iudiffor eneo in her eyes. In this condition of uncertainty bo dared not press tho question lost a hasty step might bring him to grief.
