Smut in Wheat.

George I'll. Northam gives, in the South
ern Planter, the following account of ex-
periments made by him in regard to the
prevention of smut in wheat
Lot No. l. One bushel of wheat soved
without either brining Or lining, with one
hundred and fifty pounds Of Peruvian
guano to the acre. The yield, thirteen
bushels, had the smut very bad.
Lot No. 2. One bushel, brined and
lined, sowed with one hundred and fifiy
pounds of Peruvian guano. Yield, fifteen
bushels per acre. This lot had some lit
tie smut, but nothing ike as bad as No.
l, which think lost two bushels in smut.
Lot No. 3. One bushel brined, but not
lined, and sowed with one hundred and
fifty pounds Of Peruvian guano. Yield,
ten bushels. About one-third of this lot
was smut.
Lot No. 4. One bushel washed in clear
spring water, and then lined, and sowed
with one hundred and fifty pounds of Pc
ruvian guano. Yield, eighteen bushels.
This did not have the smut at all.
On all these lots the wheat was the
same the growth equally vigorous ON
them all. The result of my experiments
IS, as will be seen, in favor Of the line
The spring water was only used to wet
the grains in order to make the lime ad-
here TO them.

The Conditional Man.

There are some men who are never
known 10 give an unconditional assent TO
any proposition, however sef-eyident.
We have in mind person of this
character, to whom, for the sake of con-
venience, we shall give the name Of
White.
"A beautiful morning, Mr.. White" we
remarked, on one occasion.
"Yes," said he doubtingly. "but
should not wonder if it rained before
night"
Your piazza is great improvement
to your house," continued.
"fes, sir, but it's little too narrow
II it was, say, foot wider, it would be
just the thing"
"ln that case, you must like Mr.. Smiths
for, il am not mistaken, his is precisely
that width"
Very true, but then it's too high"
"Ilpw do you like our new minister
lie is generally popular-a very good
preacher, good pastor, and good man"
"Why, yes, | admit all that, but didn't
you notice how askew his ncckcioth was
last Sundayi"
mo, but even admitting that to be
the case, it was no objection to him in
his official character"
"Why, no, but then we expect min
ister to pay rs much attention TO dress as
other folks"
"You have a fine field of potatoes yon-
der, Mr.. White"
"Yes, they look well enough above
ground, but there's no knowing but they
may be all rotten before they are gather
ell"
"The new railroad will be great thing
for the town, and do very much to build
it up. don't you think so 7"
well, l don't know bat it may, but
then it will be very noisy, so that n body
cant hBve quiet moment to himself"
I'VE must be content to submit to "A
little Inconvenience for the sake of OBJ
tanning great good. That is the true phil
osophy Of life" .
Perhaps it is, but then them railroa Is
are confounded noisy.
Almost despairing Of obtaining a
straight forward, unconditional answer to
our inquiries, We, as last resort pointed
out little boy who was passing by and
remarked:
That boy has very dirty hands"
"Yes," said Mr.. White, Eyes, but-but
but" he was evidently seeking for some
way in which to bring an objection. At
length his face frightened up, and he con.
tinued--"but if they were washed they'd
be cleaner"
We left him to his reflections. Yankee

Hints to Farmers.

A bare pasture enriches not the soil,
nor fattens the animal, nor increases the
wealth of the owner.
One animal well fed is of moro value
than two poorly kept.
The better animals can be fed, and the.
more comfortable they are kept, the more
profitable they are-all farmers work for
profit.
Ground once well plowed is better than
thrice poorly.
Bountiful crops are more profitable than
poor ones.
Make the soil rich, palverize it well,
an:h;t,will be productive.
Weeds that grow unmolested around
the fences, stumps and stones, cater their
seed over the farm and are very likely to
grow.
Cows well fed in winter give more milk
than in summer. An OK that is in good
condition in the spring will perform more
labor and stand the heat of summer much
better than one that is poor.
When you see the fence down, put up
if it remains until tomorrow the cattle
may get over.
What ought to be done to day, do il;
for tomorrow it may rain.
A strong horse will work all day with
out food. but keep him at it and he will
not last long.
A rich soil will produce good crops with
out manure, but it will soon tire.

Good Advice to Women.

Trust not to uncertain riches, but pre-
pare yourself for every emergency in life.
Learn TO work, and not be dependent
upon servants to make your bread sweep
your floors and darn your own stockings
Above all things, do not esteem too light
ly those honorable young men who sas-
tain themselves and their aged parents by
the work Of their own hands, while you
care tor and receive into your company
those lazy popinjays who never lift fin-
ger to help themselves, 80 long as they
can keep body and soul together aud get
sufficient TO live in fashion. If you are
wise you will look at this subject as we
do, and when you are old enough to be-
come wives, you will prefer the honest
mechanic, with not cent to commence
life, to the fashionable loafer, with capi.
tai Of ten thousand dollars.
Whenever we hear remarked, "Such q
lady has married fortune" we always
trelnble for her prosperity. Riches left TO
children by wealthy parents often turn out
q curse instead Of blessing. Young wo-
men remember this. and instead of sound
ing the purses Of your lovers. and ex-
amifing the cut OF tI,eir coat, look into
their habits and hearts. Mark Il they
have trades and can depend On tliem-
selves; seeif they have minds which win
lead them to look above q botteriy ex.
istence. Talk not Of the 6caniigal white

TO Correct Soarnsss IN MiLk, Creaa
and Bread.-It is not generally known
that the sourness ot milk and cream may
be immediately corrected by the addition
OF small quaint ty of carbonate Of mag
nesia in powder. half a teaspoonfdi
(aboat equal to four grains) may be ad-
ded to a pint Of milk or cream, if only
slightly sour; larger quantity in proper
tion to the sourness. From two to three
grains may be added 10 every pound of
flour to prevent sourness in bread, SO in
furious to some constitutions. Carbonate
of soda is sometimes employed for the
same purpose, but it communicates very
unpleasant favour to the bread, and in
the case Of milk or cream is worse than,
tie disease.

A REMARKADLE HEH.-The following
facts have been communicated 10 us by =
gentleman in this city, whose statement
may be relied apon with entire condolences:
In February last he obtained pair of
Cochin China fowls which had been hatch
ed The previous fall. Soon after getting
them, the hen began TO lay, and coDlinu-
Ell to lay an egg every day for sixty con-
secutive days. With the assistance of
three hens Of the common kind, these
eggs were all hatehed, except three that
were accidentally broken, and four that
proved added. The Cochin China hen
set upon eighteen Of her eggs, ffom which
she Matched and raised fifteen cl,ickcns.---
She carried her chickens but two weeks.
when she began to lay again, and fof
more than month past she has laid an
egg every day, rain or shine, and is still
laying. of all tho eggs. thus Gar laid.
there have been hatcIied seventy -seyen
chickens, three only Of which have died.
leaving seventy.four. OF this number,
the first three broods, consisting Of about
forty-6ve, are now ft for the table.
Thus. in about FIVE months, this hen
has laid ncas or quite one hundred eQzs,
from which have been raised seventy fonF
chickens, leaving stiIl about twenty egqs

In response to the humiliating invocation of
the Washington Union administration organ) to
camp, the National Democrat (Admantiae)
says, in discussion:
THAT is precisely what any criminal would be
glad to do, ''let by-gones be by-gones." That is
what would rejoice the heart of any thief after
he had secured the booty to himself, to alet BY
cones be by-gones." Every offender against law
and justice breads a trial much as the Cabinet
and its tools dread investigation of the causes
of Judge Bronson's removal. This laughter of
the Union is the criminals JOY at getting rid of
trial. And the feelings of security upon which it
lies SO happily down, is only the criminals tenn
porary avoidance of Justice. Itis no more. JUS
