How Drought BENEFITS the Sell.

DRY and hot Hot and dry How
much everything suffers for the want of
rain" exclaims the farmer, as the empty
clouds melt day by day from his sigkt (:
but chemical science shows us that
droughts are one of the material causes
to restore the constituents of crops, and
renovate long cultivated soils. The "why
and wherefore" of this we may here re-
produce, condensed from paper by
Prof, Higgins, chemist of the State Ag-
ricultural Society of Maryland:
The loss Of mineral matter from the
soil results from the fact that it is taken
up by growing crops, and also carried
away by the surface water flowing into
streams, and thence into the sea. These
two causes are always into operation, and
were there no sources of supply, would
in time render the earth a barren waste
The diminution which arises from con-
tinued cropping is in part restored by
manures, and the same is true of the
constituents washed from the soil by sur
face draining but this supply is small
uncertain, and of limited application,
and providence has provided natural
means to restore lost mineral constituents
10 our arabic land. At intervals droughts
occur to bring up from deeper undersoil,
food for the use Of plants when the rains
shall again fall to dissolve and bring them
into action.
A drought acts upon the moisture in
the earth as follows:
During dry weather, acontinual evap-
Grafton takes place from the surface soil,
above that supplied by rain and dew,
which creates vacuum $50 far as the
water in the surface soil is concerned, J
that is at once filed by water rising from
the extending deeper and deep
er as the drought continues and the mois-
ture is inhaled circulation of water
IN the earth the reverse Of that which
takes place in wet weather. This pro-
gress to the surface of the water in the
earth manifests itself strikingly in the
drying up of springs and wells, and
streams which are supported by springs.
Not only is water thus brought to the
surface of the earth, but also all that
the water holds in solution. There are
salts Of lime and magnesia, of potash
and soda or indeed whatever the subsoil
strata of the earth may contain. The
water on reaching the surface is evapo-
rated, but leaves behind its lime and its
potash, its phosphates, silicates, carbo-
mates and salts-all indispensable to the
growth Of the vegetable products of the
farm. Rain water, as it falls. will dis
solve but very small portion of some
OF those substances but when il sinks
INTO the earth, it then becomes strongly
lmbuded with carbonie acid from the de-
composition Of vegetable matter in the
soil and thus acquires the property Of
readily dissolying minerals on which be-
fore it could have little effect -.Sctcntif ia

A Voice from the Dead!--Make Farm
Labor Fashionable.

A Voice from the Dead!--Make Farm
Labor Fashionable.
Silas Wright, in one of his excellent
agricultural addresses, says the very basis
Of the prosperity and happiness of ma
ton lies in this great principle maize
Turning fashionable at home" Educate,
instruct, encourage, and offer all the in
contiyes you can offer to give interest and
dignity to labor AT HOME. Enlist the
Heart and the intellect of the FAMILY in
the support Of domestic system that
will make labor attractive at the home
stead. BY means of the powerful inau-
ences Of early home education cndcavor
to invest practical labor with an interest
that viii cheer the heart of each member
Of the family, and thereby you will give
to your household the grace, peace, re-
Gnemcnt and attraction which God de-
signed HOME should possess.
The truth is we must TALK more, THINK
more, WORK more, and ACT more, in ref
erenca to questions relating to HOME.
The training and improvements of the
physical intellectual, social and moral
powers and sentiments of the youth of
our country require something more than
the school house, academy, college, and
university. The young mind should re-
eoiye judicious training in the field in
tho garden, in the barn, in the workshop,
IN the parlor, in the kitchon---in word,
around the hearthstone at HOME.
Whatever intellectual attainments your
son has acquired, he is unfit to 60 forth
into society if he has not thrown around
him the genial and purifying influences
Of parents, sisters, brothers, and the
man saving influence Of the family gov
eminent. The nation must look for
virtue, wisdom, and strength, to the ed
ucation that controls and shapes the
home policy of the family circle. There
can be no love of country where there
is no love of home. Patriotism, true
and genuine, the only kind worthy Of
the name, derives its mighty strength
from fountains that gush out around the
hearthstone; and those who forget tc
cherish the household interests will soon
learn to look with Indifference upon the
interests of their common country,
We must cultivate the roots-not the
tops. We must make the family gov.
crnmeut the school, the farm, the church
the shop, the agricultural fairs, the lab
oratories of our future greatness. We
must educate our sons to be farmers, ar.
tizans, architects, engineers, biologists
botanists, chemists-in a word, practica
men Theirseyes must be turned from
Washington to the States, counties, town
ships districts, homes. This is true pa
triotism, aud the only patriotism tina
will perpetually preserve the nation.
Turn your heads from Washington iron
custom-houses, from all public offices
except those which omanate from tn
people soliciting your services for tn
public good. There is a dignity in farm
labor that is not found attached to an
other employment We have seen hun
drods ruined by waiting in expectanc
of public position, and hundred of other
who we're ruined after they obtainc
them.

GETTING OUT GRAIN.

IMPROVED COMBINED
TNREShER AND MENN0NER.

VSHE most convenient, portable, easily work
4 ed. and perfectly operating machine for
threshng, separating and winnowing wheat,
rye and oats, now in use Though compare
lively but little known here there are about
id00 OF them in use in other grain growing
districts, all giving entire satisfaction.
1t is the machine (but much improvcd) that
obtained the First Premium at the Montgom-
cry County Fair atthe exhibition in 1855, and
elected universal appreciation; and wherever
exhibited at n working test in competition with
others has always taken the Premium.
The two-horse machine cleans in the best
manner ready for market, with or 6 hands,
from so to 200 bushels of wheat per day and
the one-horse from 40 10 100 bushels; occupies
but little space; is easily moved from stack TO
stack and readily put up.
For Farmers who raise from 800 TO 1000
bushels of wheat and who prefer to do their
work with their own force, no other machine
is so desirable.
This machine is acdrrqaied to give entire sat
islaction, or may be returned at the expiration
Of II reasonable time on trial.
