In looking over the mode Of cultiya-
tion practised by those most successful
in growing the corn crop, and sspeci.
ally the statements of those who have
taken premiums for large products Of
this cereal, we almost Invariably fInf
that clean culture and top-drcssing
were practised. The corn was hoed
at an early stage in its growth, after
tirst going through il several times with
The clltiratar So as TO mellow the soil
as FAR as possibeI and then TO each
hill some stimulant was given, such as
plaster, ashes (leached or unleached,) !
or . mixture af the two. I'm tew
weeks the cultivation aud hoe were used
again, and the stalks thinned to- four
IN the bill; nor did this suffice, for if
time allowed, befnre the corn became
too large to admit of the passage Of a
horse, the eultivator was again employ
ed and another dressing with the ~
given. AT this stage in its growth tiie
grouRd becomes so shady by the laxu-
RANT leaves of the grain that little FAR
ther attention is needed.
Experience confirms what reason
teaches, that large crops Of corn can
only be grown on rich and well culti-
waited soils. The structure aud size,
and the rapid growth Of the plant, show
that it requires to be we'll supplied
with the necessary food for its growth
and perfection. II possesses the pow.
u. OF csabaating healthy aiiment from
coarser food than almost any other cul-
tiyated plant, hence its great value as
preparatory erop when such manures
are used. 1t draws largely upon the
air, and hence needs that its large
leaves ae kept healthy and fresh, not
parched and relied by drou.h Of dis
colored by the presence Of stasnapt
water in the soil.
Plow deep, manure freely. plant ear
", hue aud top-dress with ashes OF
plaster, keep the soil mellow aud Fat.
and allow nu weeds to grow, and your
corn crop will repay ali your care and
attention. Neglect it, and "nubhins"
will be your reward.

The Blind Roy.

!, was blessed sammssr's day;
The aowers hoem'a, the air was mild,
The birds poured Forth their lay.
And everything in nature smiled.
In pleasant thought wandered ON
Beneath the deep wood's simple shade,
Till, suddenly. came apon
Two children who had hither stayd.
Dust at an aged beech trees foot.
A liule hoy and gill rcclined.
His hand in hers she gently put
And then saw the boy was bland.
The children knew no, was near
a tree conccal'd me fro,p their view;
Bat all they said well could hear,
And could see all they nigh, do.
aDear Mary" sail the poor blind boy,
"1'has little bird sings very long
So do you see him in his joy,
And is he psesy as his song
"Yes, Willie, yes" replied the mud,
81 see the bird on yonder iree."
The poor hoy sighed, and gently said,
sSisicr wish that could see =

And bright green leaves are on ,heiue
And pretty binds are singing there;
How beautiful for one who secs.
"Yo, the fragrant flowers can smell,
And can feel the gssen lcaf's shade,
And can hear the notes that swell
From those dear birds that God has made

Though sight, alas. Tic has no. given;
Bot tell me, are there any blind
Among the children up in Heavenir
@No, dearest Willie, there all see;
Bot why ask me thing so odd :"

And said, "Oh, never weep for me,

But mother. dear, when You come there,

SHEEP MANURE FOR FLAx.-Mr. Lea
senworth, of Ann Arbor, stated to as
a few days since, that while he resided
in Steuben county, N. Y, his sheep
were yarlcd at night for two success
sive summers in. a yard made for the
purpose. lie then plawesl and planted
10 corn and had a good crop the next
spring he sowed with flax, Which grew
SO tall that he could stand among it
without shoes and bring the tops toge-
ther over his head aud tie them. lie
had enlarged the lot, and ON that part
not included within the sheepfold the
flax was much shorter, and easily to
be observed by any one at a distance.
The soil was what he called "a poor
hard pam" The above facts speak
loudly in favor Of sheep manure. much
of which might be saved by yarding
sheep Of nights aud not permit them
TO occupy the road to perplex the ira
weller. Mich. Parmer.

THE MISTAKE THAT Mr.. TwonBLEY
MADE -'rwombley had drank but six
glasses Of brandy aud water, when, be.
ing man Of discretion, he returned
home at the seasonable hour of a. M,
and went soberly to bed. Mrs. Tho,
mas TwoAhlcy was too well accus-
toned to the comings and goings Of
said Thomas to be much disturbed by
the trifling noise he made on retiring,
but when she discovered that he had
bis boots on she requested him to re.
move them, or keep his feet out Of the
bed.
I" My dear" said Mr.. Twombiey, in
an apologetic tone, "skuse me. How
J came to forget my boots cant con,
ccivc, for I'm just as sober as ever |
was in my llfc."
Mr.. Twombley sat on the side of the
bed and made an effort to pull of his
right boot. The attempt was success.
ful, though it brought him to the floor.
On rsgalning his feet Mr.. Twombley
thought he saw the door open. As he
was sure he shut the door on coming in,
he was astonished and, dark as it was
in the room, he couldn't be mistaken,
be felt certain. Mr.. Twomblcy stag
gercd towards the door to shut it, when,
to his still greater surprise, he saw f.
gure approaching from beyond. Twom.
bley stopped; the figure stopped. Twom.
bley advanced again; the figure did the
same. TMomblcy raisedhis right band;
the figure raised his left. !. Who's
there's roared rwombley, beginning tu
be frightened. The figure made no
reply. Twomblcy raised his boot in a
menaciny attitude; the figure defed
him by shaking similar object.
Cried Twomblcy, /" I'll find out who
you be, you sneak." /" lie hurled the
boot full at the head OF the myste-
rious object, when crash went the big
looking glass which Twomblcy had
mistaken for the door. N. o. Pic.
