How much to pay asked Jarvis.
Twenty-Five cents, sir, responded the

The twenty-five cent piece was taken from

/ His remarks are pointed, pithy and sensible.
| He is not in the least sentimental, and seems
10 have sngularly excellent common-senso
about everything
She asked him the direct qucstion--"Were
you actuated in auy degree, in undertaking
your late enterprise, by feeling Of revenge -
adding that common impression to that
effect had gone abroad.
lie manifested much surprise at this state

81 am not conscious Of evcr haptng had a

and can help to right it, and can even hope
that those who do the wrong may be pun

Mol have not been actuated by any spirit
of revenge!

manifesting solicitude for their comfort after
he was gone, but expressing Ills great COM

Phosphoric Acid.

Inthe Zuyder Zee Lands, in Holland,
there are Eve tons of phosphoric acid to
che acre. This Is far above the average of
Nhat Is found In combination with lime, or
some other substance, in all plants and ami
mails; showing lis necessity for the existence
Of animal and vegetable life.
Every one hundred bushels Of wheat
taken from farm, and sold of from Il, re-
moves permanently from the soil on which
Il grew, sixty pounds Of PhosphOric acid
and every cow removes twelve pounds. In
The ashes Of wheat there are forty-six parts
q phosphoFie acid in the ashes Of ton Of
clover eighteen pounds, and an acre Of oats
lakes twenty-tWo pounds.
By this the farmer can see how fast he is
diminishing the fertility Of the soil. Z
II cll our lands were as rich in phosphoric
acid as the zuyder Zee lands, we might
trust lnck, as Il would not all be exhausted
IN onr day. and our children nay take care
Of themselves But 80 far from this being
the case. much Of our soil contains not over
one part Of phosphorus, in soluble condi-
tien &C for theuse Of plants, in 5000. This
would b only one ton to Eve acres.

when shali we Sow wheat ?

We have conversed, says the Prairie Far.
aaer, with a large number Of Illinois farmers
upon this subject during the past eight months.
The most invariable answer to the above
question is, ain the latter part Of August
and fore part Of September-not later than
the 10th or 18th Of September" Why rot
later Because the wheat is sure to winter.
kill unless we have a favorable winter"
We have seen good wheat grown in Illinois
from seed put in the ground late in October.
But We believe it no advantage to delay
seeding 50 late. There are few more accu.
rate observers than Hon. II. L. Dunlap.
He said 70 US recently, would not SOW
before the 9Th Of September. If ! could
seed when thought best would rather do
4 in this region Champaign county between
the 10th and 10th Of September than before.
] think Il win escape the fly If sown after
the 10th" Usually, at that season the
ground is dry, however, and there is danger,
Il the soil be not well fitted and the seed
carefully put in, that il will fail to germi.
nate for want Of moisture. In the county
named and in other counties we might name,
we have seen failures in consequence Of dry
weather at time Of seeding. Whether this
ean Be avoided with less risk by an earlier
or later seeding, ordinarily, we are not
aware. Who will tell us
