But nowadays a pastor must make
sermons to draw big houses, and we have
"star" sermonizers just as we have star
actors, and star performing dogs at the
Museum. Our city churches are built by
joint stock congregations, in order to
speculate by selling the pews-so the
minister must fill the house and run up

But turkeys m.st have a wide range; to
confine them would be about as great a de
parture from nature as to expect the pear
from willow, or fleece of fine wool upon
the back Of calf. Feed the aock of tur-
keys habitually at night near the buildings,
and thus induce them TO come TO roOst pre-
pare, for them in high places, towhieh they
may have convenient access. Cared for in
this way, the loss will be triaing, while the
profit will usually be larger than from any
other item on the farm where the same
amount of capital is invested.
If fed literally as autumn approaches,
and continued until market time, there will
be no need of shutting them up for fatting
they will not only become Eat enough, but
their flesh will be tender, juicy and sweet.
These statements grow out Of an actual ex-
perience of many years in rearing turkeys

An Illustration.

A writer in the Tribune tells the story OF
Sam Farmer, az an illustration of the Prae-
teal operation of one feature Of the Conncc-
ticut law. We can quote only the conclu-
sion-condcnsing the rest into single par
agraph, thus:
sam Farmer was very intcmpcrnte-as
consequence himself and his family were
poor and miserable. When the first Of last
August came, bringing with ii the enforce
ment of the new law against drunkard max
ing. Sam, with jug IN hand, visited tho En-
pirc State--which has had tho distinguished
honor for the last five months, Of being the
general grCg shop for Connecticut tippler--
to get his usual supply Of rum. Returning
drunk. he was arrested, and unable to pay
his fine of $40, was sent to jail for three
months. That long period Of enforced alb
stinence gave him some new ideas Of him
self and Of the virtues OF sObriety; and here
follows the finale Of the story:
"When we knew sam Farmer, he was a
rum-bloat dirty, ragged, fetid, silly
When We met him We met very respecta-
bic, clean looking, well.drcsed, sensible
working man.
"'How dye do? said such looking in
dvidual to US. am glad to see you;
want to thank you from the bottom of my
heart for all you have aid, and wrote, and
printed in favor of the Maine law
Z" Sam saw that we did not recognize him.
He understood his new character we did
not. In reply, we said ..-
...who is it?' We said it kindly, as tho
We thought there was something of.humani-
ty in the form before us. II was not the
dsspised form Of run-soaked beast, only
half human. .,... '....
"The words went down into his heart,
and the tears rolled down his checks as he
answered: -
al don't wonder you don't know me. ]
hardly know myself. | am not the same
creature as Twas before they shut me up to
get sober. Why, God bless you, sir, am,
that Is, am what was-drunken Sam Far

of the farm. Too much importance cannot
well be attached to articles Of this .charac-
ter; they are all valuable adjuncts in the
process offertilization, and their economy
aud judicious application, will tell upon
the development and maturatiOn of the fu'
ture crops Of him who uses them, as well as
upon the ameliontion and improvement OF
tho soil to which they are applied. Noone
who can procure them need complain OF q
want Of manure. .-- ..,.
Bones constitute another valuable fertil-
izer, Crushed and ground bones have long
been extensively used both in this country
and in Europe. On almost every species Of
vegetation-roots as well as grains-they
act with surpriring promptness, and their
effects are both salutary and lasting. Bones
dissolvediin sulphuric aeid-which is itself
a great promptsr Of vegctative power in tho
soil-are perhaps more efficient than in any
other state in which they can be applied.
AS all bones contain large quantities OF
phosphate OF lime, their mechanical effect
upon the soil is considerable, and a degree
OF constitutional improvement-proportion-
ed to the quantity Of the article applied
will follow as natural result. To those
who have never experimental with this spe-
cies of manure, would say, be no longer
remiss in the performance Of an obvious and
most important duty. 1t behooyes every
one who has soil to cultivate, to strive, by
every possible means, to improve tsproduc-
tive capacity, and to secure..from it the rich
est and most liberal rewards. In order to
achieve this result, we must have manure.
This can never be possessed without effort
like all other acquisitions, it must be pur-
chased by effort, and often at the sacrifice OF
,ase and comfort. But in such an under
taking, considerations of this nature should
be entirely overlooked.-Gamdniown Te'e-

NEWFOUNDLAND Doc PuTrNG OUT fiRR.

This morning, on opening the store, the floor
in the back room was found TO be on fire,
and the dog wns laborins with his fore feet
and mouth trying to subduc il. A pail OF
water which had stood in the room had been
poured down the hole. Tho faithfnlanimal

food, and is apparently in much pain. We
trust tho sasacious and faithful creature is
not dangerously injured. This Is the same

Remarks on Domestic Manures.

Remarks on Domestic Manures.
IIEy MANURE. This is most valuable
article, and Is said by those who have ex-
perimented with IL in various field and gar
den crops, to possess value equal to that
Of the best guano, even when mixed with
halfits bulk Of garden mould. BY mixing
the excrement Of hens with muck, or well
decomposcd peat, and saturating the whole
with urine, or diluted sulphuric acid, a
compound Of great energy will be formed
and which, when applied to the purpoSs Of
vegetable enrichment in the ordinary way,
will insure the best and most salutary re-
suits on any crop.
GoosE DUSG, although possessing in its
crude state. qualities highly uncongenial
and even deleterious to plants, is, neverthe-
less, endued with principles which render il
capable Of being transformed to a good and
salutary manure. To secure this result, il
may be thrown into heap, after being pre-
viously saturated with water in which salt
has been dissolved, and mixing il with fine
caustic lime, gypsum and wood ashes, one
bushel Of the three last ingredients, in equal
proportions, to six bushels Of the excrement.
The compost should be allowed to remain
six weeks undisturbed. before being used,
and then applied in the same manner as
guano and poudrette. For Indian corn, it
does Well in the hill, but for grain and grass
crops, it should bc broadcasted. Twenty
bushels to the statute acre, will be found a
liberal application for well-set sward land,
or land under wheat, oats or rye. When
used US a garden manure, it should be sown
broadcast, and worked in with the spade or
nke. There are very few piyotins roots,
which do not receive great and obvious be-
neft from this application.
Dow E1cNNENr. The stale from the
dove cote, like the excrement Of the hen, to
which it is strongly assimilated, is another
valuable fertilizer. II may be applied to
soils and crops in a perfectly crude state,
and always with admirable success. IL is OF

elements of nutrition. and exerts its energies
