henefits OF Drought on the Soil

:, drought acts upon the moisture in
'he earth as follows: During dry weather.
a continual evaporation takes place from
'ne surface soil, above that supplied by
ram and dew, which creates vacuum $50
lar as the water in the surface soil is con-
cefhed,) that Is at once filled by water ari-
sing from the notwithstanding deeper
ana deeper as the drought continues and
tie moisture is exhaled-a circulation of
water In the earth the reverse OF that which
taxes place in wet weather. This progress
To the surface of the water in the earth,
manifcsts itself striking,y 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 ere salts
OF lime and magnesia, of potash and soda,
or indeed whatever the subsoil or top strata
OF the earth may contain.
The water on reaching the surface is
evaporated, but leaves behind its lime and
potash, its phosphates, silioatcs carbonates
and salts-all indispensable TO the growth
of the vegetable products Of the farm
Rain water, as it falls, will dissolve but
very small portion OF some CT those sub
stances but when it sinks into the earth,
it then becomes strongly inibped with
carbonic acid from the decomposition of
vegetable matter in the soil, and thus ac-
quires the property Of readily dissolving
minerals on which before it could have
little effect.
Several experiments tried by Prof Hig-
gins, go to show tlis action of drought in
bringing mineral waters from depth to
the surface of the soil.
In one case he placed { solution of chlor-
ide of barium in the bottom of e glass cyl
inder, and then filed it with dry soil
After long ezporure to the rays of the
sun, the surface of the soil was tested with
sulphuric acid, and gave a copious pcecip-
itate of sulphate of baryta. Chloride of
lime, sulphate of soda, and carbonate of
potash, We're experimental upon in like
manner, and upon the application Of prop
per tests, the surface OF the soil showed
thier presence in large quantities, drawn
up by the rising of water from underneath,
as in case of draught.
The parched earth-all vegetation
dwarfed and withered by the heat-seems
suffering under a curse, but it is only an
affiiction for the present-f'a blessing in
disguise" for the fdtnre ''The early and
late rain, may produce at once abundant
crops, but dry weather is needed to bring
to the surface from the depth of the earth,
wherelse it would be forever unimployed,

Farmers Daughters.

Miss L. Virginia Smith that was, Mrs
French that is, the crinoline editress of
thes3Soathern Homesteoel, gives the follow
ing excellent advice to farmers daugh-
tiers. Although intended for rural dis
tricts, it is applicable to young ladies whose
fathers are not farmers
GA young girl who happens to be the
daughter of real, genuine farmer, should
consider herself particularly fortunate.-
Her position is one which contains all the
elements which 90 to make up lofty
character; it is calculated to bring out all
the energies, to develop all the natural
gifts, and in time, with proper guides, to
make her one Of the greatest women in
the world. If there be In life one situa-
.tion above all others, where the daughter
may grow up healthful, beautiful, useful,
graceful, intelligent, and pure, that situa-
ton L believe to be as one of the house
hold band in the home of the honest and
independent farmer or planter. / would
say to young girls whose lines have fallen
IN such pleasant places" do not under
value your peculiar advantages. You are
the "highly favored among women" The
circumstances in which you are placed are
such as are best calculated to develop your
powers in a threefold form, physically,
mentally, and morally.
l would have you value your advanta-
ges, improve every one of them to the
utmost, and place proper estimate upon
yourselves. You have every opportunity
to make yourselves noble, beautiful, intel
lectual, and useful women; do this, then,
and each in her own person "assert the
dignity of labor" Consult your parents,
and form for yourself purpose in life
They place before your brother some aim,
some standard, some goal which his exer-
tions are to reach, why not then give you
something to live for" also Why sho'd
you be the only cypher in the family p
When you have ''fnished" school, don't
for one moment believe that you are "ed-
ucated." Don't "dress up in your six
founces," etc, and sit down on the parlor
sofa, waiting for that young clerk at
'Ketchum d Cheatum's,' to 'call round. :"
No; let him show off his laces, embroid-
cries, ETC., ETC., and wear them too, for all
you care about it. Remember that "let
others do as they will, as for you,' you
have something else to do than to sit down
fold your white hands, and wait to be
married
You have an influence in society to
WELD, duty as daughter, and perhaps as
sister, to perform, and then you must
not forget yourself, for you have a mind
to be cultivated, health to be guarded, a
heart to be educated, and an immortal
soul to be saved. Is not this a great deal
of work Yes, trust me, if you only 90
about it "with will" you will find every
moment employed, and every day too short
for the accomplishment of all your duties.
You know how much you can assist MAN.
