southern journey in August. Judging from
our visitors description. his house was dis
tant from our camp about three miles. Il
could be reached, he said, only By climbing
over the mountain, which was a difficult
undertaking; or by walking along the beach
at low tide. He carried in his hand two
little auks, a bladder filled with oil, coil Of
seal thong, and two or three pieces OF half
putrii walrus flesh. He was on an excur-
sion round the island to set fox traps; and
the flesh was intended for bait. While
talking with Us, he took up one of his auks,
twisted off the head, and inserted the index
hngef OF his right hand under the integu-
ments OF the neck, drew it down the back
and in an instant the bird was skinned.
lie then ran his long thumb nail along the
breast bone, and as quickly produced two
hne lat Jumps of flesh, which he generously
offered to anybody who would take them.
lie evidently intended great courtesy but
the raw meat, coming from such hands and
treated IN this manner, was not to our liking.
Peterson explained to him that we had Just
breakfssted, and begged, most politely. that
he would not rob himself. II did not please
him that we declined his hospitality which
was evidently kindly intended, and was
bestowed in manner which showed plainly
that ne felt the Importance of proprietor

and took his lunch with a gusto quite re-
freshing to see. washing il down with a
drink of oil which in turn, he offered to US
but again we were compelled TO commit the
discourtesy Of declining the proffered atten-
iIon. The remainder of his oil, which
furnished US fuel for cooking two meals, the
other bird. and the coil Of thong, we pur-

he said, no stock for his whip, and he begged
for piece Of wood. We gave him splin-

Advantage Of Pulverizing the Soil.

The effects Of pulyerizstion or stirring the
soil are numerous:

tables, and they become more fbrous 10 q
loose than 10 4 hnrd soil. by which the
mouths or pores become more numerous,
aud such food as is in the soil has a better
chance Of being sought after and taken up
by them.
2. II admits the atmospheric air to the
spongioles Of the roois-without which no
plant can make healthy growth.
,. II increases the capillary attraction or
sponge like property Of soils, by which their
humidity is rendered more uniform and 10
hot season It increases the deposite Of dew.
aud admits il to the roots.
4. Il increases the temperature OF the soil
in the spring. by admitting the warm air and
tepid rain.
s. IL increases the supply Of organic food.
The atmosphere contains carbonIc acid, am.
monis. and nitric acid-all most powerful
fertilizers and solvents. A loose soil attracts
aud condenses them. Rain and dew, also,
contain them. And when these fertlizing
gases are carried into the soil by rain water,
they are absorbed and retained by the soil,
for the use Of plants. On the other hand. il
the soil is hard, the water runs of the sur
face, aud instead Of leaving these gasses in
the soil. carries oT some 0f the best portions
Of the soil with il. Thus, what might be a
benefit becomes an injury.
0. By means of palysrization. q portion
Of the atmospheric air is buried in the soil
and il is supposed that ammonia and nitric
acid are iormrd by the mutual decomposition
Of this ar aud the moisture Of the soil-heat

These effects are produced by the poFosily
Of the pulyerized stratum, which acts as a
mulch. especially on heavy soils.

effect of several of the preceding causes,
accelerates the decomposition Of the organic
matter IN the snil. and the disiniegratlon u

the plants. GsHaes Farmer.

AN aABLE. !. EDITOR.

Every judicious and obseryant man will
concur in the following views, presented by
the editor Of one of the best conducted
journals in the Old Dominion, the Alexan.
dria Gazette:
"Many people estimate the ability Of a
newspaper, and the industry and talents of
its editor, by the quantity Of editorial mat.
ter which i contains. 1t is comparatively
an easy task for frothy writer to pour ou,
and all subjects. His ideas may fow in
I" one weak, washy, everlasting flood" and
his command Of language may enable him
to string them together like lunches Of
onions, and yet his paper may be meagre
and poor concern. But what is the labor
and toll Of such man who displays his
50 loaded matter" ever so largely, TO that i'm
posed On the judicious. well informed editor,
who exercises his vocation with an hourly
consciousness Of its responsibilities, and
desotes himself to the conduct Of his paper
with the same care and assiduity that q SEN
sible lawyer bestows upon q suit, or a hu-
name physician upon patient, without re-
gard 10 show or display Indeed, the mere
wriiiag part Of editing a paper, is but a
small portion Of the work. The industry is
not even shown there. The care. the time
employed in selecting, is FAR more importsnt; |;
and the tact Of good editor is better shown
BY bis selections than anything else and
that we all know is half the battle. But,
as We have said. an editor ought to be esti.

ciated, by the general conduct Of his paper

course--its principles-its sims-its manli-
ncss-its dignity-its propriety. 10 pre-

ton Of any man. II TO this be added the

CARROTS.

4
In the Homestead. Elihu Burritt gives the
following new method of wedding Carrots
In Williamstown | was told Of plan Of
raising carrots which was quite new, to me
at least. II is coming largely into vogue in
that town and vicinity. Thick sward land !,
meadow or pasture, is turned over carefully
and deeply. A light harrow is then passed
over the surface, and the carrot seed is sown
with fax. As the swald is buried six or
eight inches deep. no grass nor weeds grow
up among the flax to choke that or the car
rots. When the flax comes to the blow it is
pulled, and the process weeds the carrots
just at the time they need it, This is all
the labor requisite for good crop Of these
valuable roots, until they are gathered.up in
the autumn. Thus two crops are obtained
by this method from common piece of
meadow or pasture land. No seed. Of course,
is obtained from the flax pulled in blossom !;
but the lint is as good as if the stalks were
fully seeded. This certainly is labor.
saving method Of raising carrots. when COM
pared with the common sowing and wedding
process.
