Horse-Radish.

Most people appear to think that thing
which will "grow anywhere" with neglect, or
by accident, is not worth cultivation, though
ever SO useful or be they ever SO fonG of it.
Thus it is that the horse radish though one of
the most highly priced spring condiments, recei-
yes little or no attention, and is usually found,
in most gardens, in the vicinity of sink-spout,
at the end of drain, under the fence, in shady.
worthless corner of the garden, or some other
neglected place, out of sight and mind, only
when it is wanted in early spring for the table
Then few meagre stringy forlorn little, pithy,
or hollow roots are dug up, the tops cut off and
thrown away, and the plants " not worth dig
ging," are left in the ground, neglected and
unthought of, until another spring revives the
appetite for repeated digging of the esculent.
Such is the usual cultivation" which the
abused horse radish gets at the hands of its
benefactor
Now horse-radish is as much better for good
culture as any other plant; and it is so little
trouble that we will narrate our own method of
treating it for many years past, by which zoe
knoa0 that the article is improved at least hun
dred per cent. in value and flavor We plant
in row, or rows, as we would currant bushes
taking place in the garden where we do not
wish to pillow or dig across it, and where it can
stand permanently. We then strike out place,
not under fence, unless it be on the easterIy or
southerly side of it; nor under the shade of
trees, but right out in the warm, open, exposed
part of the garden, where the sun, rain, and air
can hit it fairly, as if it were beet or onion
bed. Staked out, we then threw on to it
heavy coat of strong, fat, arn-yard dung, spread
even over it. We then pillow or spadeiit in,
deep as we can, and pulverze the ground tho
roughly Then, with crow-bar, or iron-shod
hole pnncher, (dibble,) which every gardener
should have about him, we sink a line of holes
In the ground, foot, or eighteen inches deep.
When that is done we fill them up with the
finest of the soil, well mixed up with manure,
to within six inches of the surface. Then we
take the green tops of the plant, with about an
inch OF the root attached, (if the tops be large,
they may be split with a knife into three or
four parts, or ifwhole, no ma tier how smaIl1
and drop them into the hole, one root in each,
top up, of course, and cover them in with the
soil. The bed is thus complete, and ready for
growing. Keep them clean by the hoe. like
any other crop.

A farmers Song.

a farmers Song.
We envy not the princely man,
In city or in town,
Who wonders whether pumpkin vines
Run up the hill or down:
We care not for his marble halls,
Nor yet his heaps of gold,
We would not own his sordid heart.
For all his wealth thrice told.
We are the favored ones of earth,
We breathe pure air each morn,
We sow-we reap the golden grain
We gather in the corn;
We toil-we live on what we earn,
And more than this we do,
We hear of starving millions round,
And gladly feed them, too.
The lawyer lives on princely fees,
Yet drags weary life,
He never knows peaceful hour
His atmosphere is strife.
The merchant thurlbs his yard stick DER,
Grows baggard at his toll,
He's not the man God meant him for
Why don't he till the soil
The doctor plods through storm and cold
Plods at his patients will,
When dead and gone he plods again
To get his lengthy bill
The printer (bless his noble soul,)
He grasps the mighty earth,
And stamps it on our welcome sheet,
To cheer the farmers hearth.
We sing the homer of the pillow,
And honor of the press
Two noble instruments of toll,
With each power to bless,
The bone and nerve of this fast age,
True wealth of human kind
One tills the ever generous earth,
The other tills the mind
