ENhaustiMg the Soil.

Eight million acres in the State of New
York are in the hands of three hundred thou
sand persons who stIll adhere to the colonial
practice of extracting from the virgin soil all
It will yield, SO long us it will pay expenses to
crop 1t, and then leave II IN "A thin, poor pas
ture for a term OF years. Some OF these inn
puycrished farms, which seventy-hve years ago
produced from twenty to thirty bushels OF
wheat, on an average, per acre, now yield only
from five % eight bushels. IL an exceedingly
interesting WORK entitled" American Husband
ry," pub. .sIcd IN London in l115, and written
by an American, the following remarks may
be found on page 90, vol. l.: "Wheat, IN
many parts Of the province, New York, yields
IA larger produce than is common IN England
Upon good lands a5ou. Albany, where the
climate is the coolest IN the country, they SOW
two bushels and better upon an acre, ard reap
from tceniy 10 forty the latter quantity, how
ever, is not often had, but from twenty to
Miriy are Common; and with such bad hus-
banlry as would not yield the like in Englaud,
and much less in Scotland. TINS IS owing 10
the richaeSS ana freshness oi the land"
" According to the State census Of 1915,
Albany county now produces only seven and a
hlf bushels of wheat per acre, although lis
farmers are on tide water and near the capital
Of the State, with good market and possess
every facility for procuring the most valuable
ierlllzars. Duchess county. also on the
hudson river, prodGccs an averages Of only five
bushels per acre Columbia, SIX bushels !;
Rensselaer,, eight Westchester, seven, which
Is higher than the average Of soils that once
gave IL return larger than the wheat lands Of
England even with " bad husbandry."
Fully to renoyate the eight million acres of
partially exhausted lands IN the State of New
York, will cost at least an average Of twelve
dollars and half per acre, or an aggregate OF
one hundred millions of dollars. 1t is not an
easy task to replace all the bone-earlb, potash,
sulphur, magnesn and oiganlzed nitrogen in
mould consumed in field which has been un-
wisely cultivated fifty or scventy-tive years.

than they would if the land had cot been III

CONTEMPT OF CoURT.--An amusing inciden
occurred in courtroom some years since in,
one of the back counties of Missouri The
court was seated and cause about to be tired.
Now, his honor the Judge, was man we'll
stricken IN years, yet he could ride race,
shoot rifle, and shuttle and deal as well as
the next man, and he who presumed to triis
with the dignity of the court, on these occa-
sions, generally suffered some.
Well, as was saying his homer was seated,
and cause about TO be commenced. when, iu
voice of thunder, the sheriff proclaimed ST.
lence. There was pause--the Judge looked
over and saw an old gentleinaA who had not
yet uncovered his head. The court could not
brook such disrcspect to its dignity, and his
honor called out in an authoritative tone ::
"Mr. Shertt-remoye that old gentlemaL's
hat"
That functonary, who had until now stood
IN "A corner leaning upon his rifle, stepped up,
and politely knocked off the offenders hat with,
that murderous instrument; whereupon Mr..
Badger Badger was the offenders name,) seiz-.
ed the hat. and clapped it upon his head, loudly
ex ;lain.ing:
"Judge--Im bald =
"Nr Sheriff." said the indignant court, Owe;
instruct you again to remove that hat"
The order was instantly executed, and no.
sooIcT uone than Mr. BndTer replaced the hat
on his head second time, again insisting tha.
he was bald.
The offended Judge now waxed warm and
rising up IN his seat, ordered the clerk to enter
a fine Of five dollars for contempt Of court. and.
to be committed till the fine ;Yas paid.
Mr.. Badger was thunder-sruck. lie delib,.
eratey walked up to the bench, and LAYING
down Il half dollar before his honor, in so,.e
emn manner thus gave his views:
Your sentence Judge, is most ungen.!eman-
iy-but the law is imperative, Dni reckon FL
stand Il, So here is four bits and the four dol
lars and half that you owed me when We
stopped playing poker t.!s morning JUS, makes

SHAvED.-Some days since, as tnancer was
| JUS, leaving his office in Wall-st after a busy
day of stock and banking operations (Which
had evidently been satisfactory, since his coun-
| tenance wore that pleasant expression which is
compatible only with unqualified success,) he
noticed countryman, with slouched hat,
homespun coat and thick undiscovered boots,
driving along COW and calf. The cows
udder was brimming Iull, so that fine streams
OF the lacteal fluid were running from her
teats. The thought OF pure country milk crossed
the brokers' brain, and the temptation to se-
cure such a luxury induced him to pause.

The tinancier thought the price rather high,
but the sight of the miik-and such bag full
convinced him that the bargain would be a
good one, so he stepped into his office and pro-
duced the gold, which the Yankee carefully
counted, heited, bit, &c, to make sure that it
was good, observing that folks are pesky sharp
down here, and somebody said this was Wall

himself that the gold was good he turned away
with the calf, almost crying at parting with
Old Bet, WHO, he said, he loved more he dill
his brother"
The Wall-st. gentleman hired a IIibernian
to drive old Bet to his home. across the river.
That night there was rejoicing in Brooklyn.
Great was the flow Of pure country milk, SO
abundant that the broker began to think that he
had ,ap2ed the Milky Way. New pans were
purchased, the children were filled up like de-
mjohns, even the cats had a lick extra, and

over the new wonder. The proud owner and
his wife congratulated each other hundred
times, and went to sleep only 10 dream of sail

+ rom nays Manufacturing Cities OF England
In our large provincial towns, the poor are
IN the habit OF entering their children in wha,
are called burial clubs A small sum is paid
every year by the parent, and this entities him,
to receive from E3 to E5 from the club, on the
death of the child. Many parents enter their
children in several clubs. One man in Manr
chester has been known to enter his child iu
nineteen different clubs On the death Of sucn
a child, the parent becomes entitled to receive
a large sum OF money; and as the burial of the
chlld does not necessarily cost more than e.
los, the parent realizes a considerable sum
after all the expenses are paid
1T has been clearly asceraned, that it is
common practice among the more degraded
classes OF poor in many OF our towns, 10 enter
Their Infants in these clubs and then to cause
their death either by sarvation,. il.usage, or
poison! What more horrible symptom Of moral
degradation can be conceived Cnas mind re-.
volts against it, and would fan reject it as q
monstrous fiction. But, alas it seems to be-
but too true.
'Mr. Chadwick says, Officers OF these buria,.
societies, relieving officers, and others, whose
