BREAKING HORSES.
Some may object to the term
breaking as suggestive of the tragi
cal and terrible. Well, tlmt in about
what yon want to describe when you
speak of processes in vogue. Colts
run wild till they have attained near*
Jv their full strength and have acquir
ed very positive ideas about per.-onal
freedom and the rights of horses !
Then nil nt once the man who has
been passing himself off as their own
er, (a point net conceded by 'lie 'par
ty of the other part,') take* it into
his head that ho is in pressing need
of their service, and sets himself at
once vigorously t> work to get it. I
will draw a veil over what follows ;
it is always sad to see brutes con
tending. I beg leave to add—
1. That eolu should be handled
and made tame from the very start
2. They should be accustomed to
the harness and made to draw light
loads when two or three years old,
but never put to severe business till
they are seven or eight.
3. A broke horse should back as
well as draw ; should obey the rein
promptly, and be made to avoid a
slouching gait, should always stop at
the word ; should be familiar with
railroad engines in full blast; and be
accustomed to things about his heels;
dhow no repugnance to the country s
flag, and accept a military escort
with perfect composure. No horlfe
is educated—'broke' if you please—
till he i- made familiar witb all these
things. No horse should ever be
sent out to work his way in the world
till he is incapable of taking fright
at anything. I have seen a cavalry
horse hold perfectly still, and not
even wink, when a bludgeon was
swung furiously within tw;) inches of
his head.
4. All, except heavy draft horses,
should be trained for riding. They
should obey the rein, walk, trot or
gallop, as desired, and keep the gait
they are put on till required to
change. There is an ease and reg.
ularity of motion observable in cir
cus horses that greatly assists the
rider, and makes pastime of what is
uoarly allie i to torture when the an
imal is in a crude and undisciplined
state. Horseback riding should bo
vastly more common than it is among
men and women, boys and girls.
5. Rarey was a saint,or something
i>f that sort.
ROAD MAKING.
The following hints upon this sub
ject we find worthy of consideration;
and as in the spring much time is
devoted to "repairing and making
roads, we give them for the benefit
of ftirmers and others:
'ln road making, one great requi
site is the ready and total removal
of all water. There cannot be a
good road where water stands by the
side of it or on it. If tho ditches
have no ready outlet, the road bed
will soak up the moisture more or
less by capillary attraction, and thus
remain rutted and muddy. It is vain
to think of having a good road on a
Bubsoil filled with stagnant water-
Even on side hills, if water remains
on the upper side, .it will injure the
road by passing under. Provide
then, if possible, for the thorough
drainage of your roads, either by sur
faco or covered dilches. See that
the road bed is evenly and slightly
rounded, fo that the water can read
ily find its way to the drains. If the
soil is clayey or loamy, give it a few
inches of grave), or even coarse sand,
and you will have a fine and pleasant
passage-way. If the soil is sandy,
it needs an addition of clay to cor
rect it, and this will correct it solhat
good roads may bo had over the
lightest sandy soils.'
HINTS FOR THE SEASON. —June is
emphatically a growing month, both
for vegetables and weeds. Plows,
cultivators, horse and hand hoes will
be called into requisition now,to keep
down weeds and loosen the soil about
growing plants. Some late crops
are yet t.o be putin arid failures in
the corn fields need replanting. No
spot on the farm should lie waste.—
Plant or sow such spots with some
Boiling crop, putin buckwheat or
turnips, anything rather than leave
them idle to grow pestiferous weeds.
We do not believe in the idea that
soils need rest. A good coating of
manure, deep ploughing, and clean
tillage arc the best '.'rests" that ex
hausted lands can have.
Barley may be sown, if ommitted
till now.
BEANS —PIant, any not already in,
among corn or by themselves.
BEETS —Sow Sugar and Mange!-
-wurtzel, for stock, uuless all were
putin last month.
JJ*WBPAPEns. —In a lecture upon news
papers, delivered in I'hiladlephia by Iter.
J)a Witt Taluiadge, lie said:
'I now deolarc that I consider the news
paper to be the agency by which
the Gospel is preached, ignorance cast
out, oppression dethroned, crime extir
pated, the world raised, Heaven rejoiced,
and God glorified. In the clankoriuii of
the printing press, as sheets fly out, I
hear the voice or the Lord Almighty pro*
claiming to all tho dead nations of the
earth, 'Lazarus, come forth !' and to the
retreating surges of darkness, 'Let there
be light.''

thut I faithfully tried several of fne most popular hu

with Boils, and they know how perfectly good my health
is at present. Your llumer Doctor cured me. Ple.tse

Mr*. B'heeler, Sioneham, Mats.
I very confidently and earnestly recommend Dr. J.
W. llumer Doctoi as an excellent temedy fur
humors, having been wonderfully remedied by itmyaolf.
My own case was a very severe and obstinate one. For
more than tw* year* the skin up »n the inside of both
my bauds, and even down to my wrist, was constantly
craokod and broken up, so that I was unable to uno
my hands in any kinds of wet work, and was
obliged to wear gloves in sewing to avoid getting blood
upon my work. The humor which ao afflicted me was
probably a combination of Erysipelas and Salt Hheum.
My general health was quite poor. Soon after I began
to u*e the Humor Doctor 1 could Perceive signs of heal
ing. 1 continued to use the mod if In e till I was finally
cured My bands are now perfectly free from humors,
and to all appearances my whole system is clear of it,
and has been for several months. I Used eight bottles
