A Fable.

THE IcE AND THE Snow -3You are white
as a sheet and cold as marble" said the Ice
to the Snow. "You are falling, you arc
faint"
My fall is noiseless, and my fakes are
harmless replied the Snow.
81 think you lack the frmness," reioined
the Ice, "and more solidity of character
would render you less the sport Of wintry
winds"
eve have more to fear from the sun than
from the winds" returned the Snow
II should pity your weakness on the ap-
proach of such a foe,' said the Ice.
II shall commend myself to his mercy by
my purity and whiteness," said the Snow.
IL shall resist his power by my hardness
and tirmness," observed the Ice.
The Sun now poured his rays upon our
two cold friends. The Snow began to weep
and the Ice to melt. "Where's your white
ness and purity now?" asked the dissoving
Ice. "And where's your firmness and hard
ness?" enquired the Snow,
"We are now returning to water from
whence we came, asa man returns to dust"
relolned the Ice.
'its not death but change" observed the
Snow.
"By this change, we are becoming one. "
responded the Ice.
"And seeking the lowest places" replied
the snow.
owe can now ascend to heaven" replied
the Ice; whereas we never could while |
retain my boasted hardness; and your vaun-
ted whiteness.'
MoRAL,-On this side of the grave, we re-
gard death as an enemy, as in the foregoing
Fable the Ice and the Snow viewed the Sun
Death destroys not the man, but his depen-
dence on himself. The Fable likewise tea
ches that innocence and beauty cannot bribe,
nor irmness and strength resist Death. a

Harvesting Buckwheat.

Buckwheat requires more care in harvest
ing, in order topIevcnt loss from the shaking
OF the seeds than any other crop. Sotls
writer's recommend cutting it as soon rs one
third Of the seeds a1e turned brown Others
ay two-thirds. Ii we wait for all to ripen,
the earliest and best portion Of the grain will
be lost. When perh; ps half Of Tie seeds
are turned brown, the grain should be cl,t
and as The straw is very succulent and juicy,
the unrpened grain will draw nourishment
from the stock, and will fill out and rripen
very we'll after it is cut. Some prefer 10 cut
This grain when it is wet with dew. The
most approved method Of haryes Ing is 10
cradle the buck-wheat, and then with rake
put it into punches about the siz; Of ordinary
wheat shcayes, and set thera up without bin
ding BY raking or lolling it together with a
rake, it is interviewer in such manner that
it will stand any desirable length of time.
and when sufficiently dry it may be taken
up with fork and placed on the cart Without
the loss of a grain. 1t should be- threshed
out immediately. 1t is very easily threshed
when it is in good condition. 1t will often
be necessary to let it remain in the lunches
ten or twelve days before it becomes driet
and cured ltrarely suffers any injury from
exposure to rains.-AdtAe Farpsef
