How TO TEST THE QUAL1rY OF Woo

How TO TEST THE QUALITY OF Wool
The Texas State Gazette says:-.sTake a
lock of wool from the sleeps back and
place it upon an inch rule. If you can
count from 80 to 80 of the spirals or folds
in the space of an inch. it equals in quality
the finest quality of Saxony wool grown.
Of course, when the number of spirals to
the inch diminishes, the quality of the wool
becomes relatively inferior. Many tests
have been tried. but this is. considered the
simplest and best. Cotswold wool and
some other inferior woods do not measure
nine spirals to the inch With this test,
every farmer has in possession knowledge
which viii enable him to form correct
judgement of .he quality of all kinds of
wool. There are some coarse woods, which
experienced wool-growers do not rank as
wool, but as hair. on account of the hard
ness or straightness of the FIBER

CHANGING SEED.-A writer in the New
England Farmer says his potato crop has
increased from fifty to one hundred per cent.
by procuring seed potatoes which grew on
an entirely different soil. fifteen or twenty
miles apart from his. This plan of chang
ing seed every year is q good one. either
for potatoes or any other seed. such as grain
and garden seeds and even if the change
is made only between cultivators in the same
vicinity, it is still beneficial.

EXITING U1sHED HIS INTEREsT.-A mon
eyed southerner, who, in the spring of 1857,
was vending his way northward, to work
off some of his surplus capital, accidentally
made the acquaintance of an Illinoisan in a
certain fourishing village in the Sucker
State. Our Illinois man had just been north,
and had made some splendid purchases of
real estate from his own observation, part
of which he would sell. A bargain was
made, and after planking down some nine
hundred dollars in regular spelter, the south
ern man received a clear title to some TWEEN
ty acres of land in the very heart of vii
lage Ito be) in the Chippewa Valley. A
few days since he came up the Chippewa
to inspect his possessions, and he found
them lying out of town some three miles,
and constituting the apex of the tallest bluff
in the vicinity. Without permitting him
self to be annoyed at finding. his property
so high, he nevertheless expressed desire
to ertimguish has interest, and said that he
would trade for anything. Mr.. - offered
to trade him his dog for the land. Is
terms were accepted. and he received the
title of the "bluff," and the southerner took
the dog out and shot him-thus extinguish-
ing his right.-Eau Claire Wis. Press.

VIM. L. Morgan, of Pottsville, Ind
says that seed from the butt end of an ear
of corn will ripen its product all at the
same time, and some three weeks earlier
than seed from the little end of the sauna

break their seed corn ears in two in the mid
die, and use the butt ends only for seed.

soldiers, that God is with you. The eter-
nal God fights for you! He rides on the
battlecloud; he sweeps onward with the
great and the infinite, fights for You. and
will triumph.
e'They that take the sword shall perish
by the sword"
You have taken the sword, but not in
the spirit of wrong and ravage. You have
taken the sword for your homes, for your
wives, for your little ones. You have Ia
ken the sword for truth, for justice, fol
right; and to you, the promise is, "Be Of
good cheer, for your foes have taken the
sword in defiance of all that man holds
dear, in blasphemy of God" They shall
perish by the sword.
And now, brethren and soldiers, bid
you all farewell
Many of US may fall in the battle tomor-
row. God rest the souls of the fallen !
Many Ct US may live to tell the story of the
fight tomorrow, and in the memory of all
will ever rest and linger the quiet scene Of
this autumnal night.
Solemn twilight advances over the valley
The woods on the opposite heights fling
their long shadows over the green of the
meadow. Around us are the tents of the
continental host; the suppressed hustle Of
the camp, the hurried tramp of the soldiers
to and fro among the tents. the stiffness and
awe that marks the eve of battle.
When we meet again, may the shadows
of twilight be flung over a peaceful land
God in heaven grant it.
Let US pray. ~
Oh God of mercy, we pray thy blessing
on the American arms. Make the man OF
our hearts strong in thy wisdom; bless, we
beseech thee, with renewed life and strength
our hope and thy instrument, even George
Washington. Shower thy counsels down
on the Honorable the Continental Congress
Visit the tents of our hosts; comfort the
soldier in his Affections; nerve him for the
fight, prepare him for the hour of death.
And in the hour of defeat, oh, God Of
Hosts, do be Thou our stay; and in the
hour of triumph, be Thou our Guide.
Teach us to be merciful. Though the
memory of CALLING wrongs be at our hearts
knocking for admittance, that they FIJI us
with the desire of revenge, yet let US, oh
Lord, spare the vanquished, though they
never spared US in the hour of victory and
bloodshed
And in the hour of death do guide US tc
the abode prepared for the blessed; so shall
we return thanks unto Thee through Christ
our Redeemer.
