Book PARNISG.-0ne of the most practical
eases Of - Book Farming" that has come to our
knowledge is told us by friend:
A young Maryland farmer, q reading man,
got hold Of Liebigs great work on agricultural
chemistry soon after its publication, and be-
ing that his farm was limestone land, of ma
king fresh application of that fertilizer At
ter good deal OF hesitation on the part of his
father, the lime was tried, and after being tired
continued. The improvement in consequence
has been such, that where FIVE and six barrels
Of corn was the outside, rs much as fifteen per
acre have been made, and other crops in pro-
portion. A debt, the interest of which they
could scarcely keep down before, has been paid
of, and they have bought field after field with
ready money from neighbOrs who could not af-
ford to buy lime, or agricultural books.

AFoOr.-TO go afoOt has ever been deemed
the extreme Of poverty or folly, and has accord
ingly been marked with deserved contempt.
We ourselves have drawn largely on the scorn
due to such proceeding. We have had it
darted at US in glanceS shot in taunts or poured
down in condolences The calm pity expressed
In the face of the Arab when he pranced by us
on his steed Of the desert we looked upon as
natural to the man and his circumstances and
bore 1T. We could excuse even the scorn with
which an Andalusian caballero, mounted on his
cIub-talled eHttTO. regarded us, as we trudged
along the wretched roads of his country but at
times we have suffered beyond endurance. We
have been looked down upon by a fat priest on
sore backed, spawned mule. which could not
limp As many miles in two hours as we could
stride in one; and we have more than once been
offered lift by costermOnger in q donkey
cart.
Once, too, on entering a Spanish rsato. after
having done journey afoot of which we were
rather proud, we heard our hostess explain.
apologetically, to a neighbor, that the English
did not walk because they could not afford to
ride, but that it was a whim, a fancy of theirs
I'M c0pTtctO, ma fantasia. But the bitter
est sense of degradation, from this perversity of
ours, was laid upon us in Portugal We were
In a river steamer going to Alhandra, the ter
mlnatlon OF the lines. Among the passengers
was POrtugese countess, fat oily, rather gar
llcky, and adorned on lip and chin with a very
sparce crop OF hair as cOuntesses in Portugal
are apt to be. The hustle of embarcation and
the heat had produced a puffness and sufusion
which kept fan and kerchief in constant action;
and we, in pity for her condition. made little
seat and awning for her with the bags and
cloaks on the deck. A gracious bow and u wave
Of the fan when she left the vessel, showed that
we had thereby won consideration. On the
shore was vehicle which made us stare.
1t was an antiquated, cumbrous, dust-cov-
cred machine, built somewhat after the fashion
of a coach and to it was attached-what think
you mules! asses? No! bullOcks Ay,
bullocks, and actually yoked, too, as they would
have been TO a plOw. Into this our countess
stumbled with an evident sense of dignity and
grandeur. The driver smote with his goad-
the oxen woke up and began to creep along
the wheels creaked and on went the vehicle
majestically slow. OF course, we soon out
stepped 1t, but ever and anon, as we stopped to
look at something on the road, it would pass
and repass us, and were then conscious that a
glance Of ineffable disdain was darted on us
from within, and that the fair inmate, swelling
with consciousness Of superiority, was indig-
nantly regretting that she had ever cOndescend-
ed to notice, or be noticed by, a fellow who
could journey yafoot.-Blackrooa'S Magazine.

WOMAN IN THE GARDES.-Much in these
days are said about the sphere of woman.
vi this yexed question we have nothing now to
say. The culture of the SOIL the body and soul
are our themes. Rich soils, healthy bodies,
pure, cultivated souls, these are what we are
aiming at. And to this end we recommend that
every country woman have a garden that she
keeps and dresses with her own hand, or at
least that she superyises and manages The
culture Of strawberr es, blackberries, gOOseber-
rles, currants and garden vegetables are as de-
hghttul and profitable anything in which
woman can engage. She may sprinkle her gar
den with flowers. All the better for that A
SNOWFALL In this corner, n rose in that a dahlia
bed there and moss border here will not be
out Of place. Only let the substantial and use
full constitute the chief part. touch of the
ornate like ribbon on n good bonnet is not
in the least objectionable In all the schools
the girls study botany In all families the
woman ought to practice botany. 1t is health
full, pleasing and useful. The principles Of
horticulture are the principles of botany put
into practice. Farmers study agriculture why
should not their wives and daughters study
horticulture! If any employment is feminine
IT would seem that this is. If any is healthy
this must be. fany is pleasurable none can
he more so than this. rich bed of strawber
rIes, bush OF fblackberries or currants a border
of flowers produced by ones own hand. what
can we'll afford n more rational satisfaction,
We say To all our country sisters, have garden
if IL Is only small one. and do your best with
it, Plant il with what pleases you best, with
a good variety. and see what you can do with
it. What woman cannot raise beets, tomatoes
melons, onions, lettuce and furnish her own ia
bic with them! What woman cannot plant a
rasberry bush or currant or gOOseberTy, and
tend il well! Come, good woman, study your
health, your usefulness your happiness, and
your children 5 also.
