CsRE BREAD-A few years since, half
the bread eaten in New England was made
OF corn and rye meal now the majority of
families see nothing but wheat bread, ex-
cept on very rare occasions, from one year
70 another. The farmers Of the West and
the planters Of the South live on corn bread,
aud sell their wheat to us, because corn
bread costs only hall, or less than half, as
much as wheat bread Yet there are
thousands Of poor families in New England
Who do not know one week where the next
weeks supplies are to come from, who
would feel a sort of degradation in living
on corn bread and if they resort to it
occasionally, eating slyly and by stealth,
that II may not be known they are SO poor
as TO live on Indian neal
There is o mistake 10 this. There is
nothing more Pslatabe than corn meal
properly cooked. There is q variety Of
articles for the table that may be prepared
from. It, that are highly toothsome, and
viii be perferred TO anything else by many
people, almost universally by the children
Here is an opportunity for considerable eco
nomy. and one at the same time prodnetiV,
Of heslih. Let Indian meal be partially
substituted for -four, and the expenses
Of tie table can be very considerably re
aueed by this one change. - Springfield Re

Extract from an Agricultural Adress.

The farmers bus ness, is based upon the
law ofvegitative growth, and while the me-
chaLic deals mainly with matters in the
mass and the chemist deals with it in its
atoms and the merchant deals with it
NEARLY as so much commodity, the farmer
deals with il as having the capacity of
growth and thus bis business is that of a
grower of vegeta bic life, and indirectly, also,
of animal life. He performs many processes
in the course Of bis work, and uses many
arts and implements, but all turn toward
one end--the raising end outstanding the
various fruits of the earth. Hence his care
of the soil and the seed and of the growing
plant--each of these three departments
containing in itself whole world of labor
and instruction. The ground upon which
We tread is full cf hidden wealth and still
defes the analysis of the chemist Dust as
it seems, has an odd life or temper of its
own and be who will study its appetites,
and feed it wisely, either with mineral or
carbonaceous or nitTogenons food, or with
oil these daly eombiRed-not only giving
it the right substance, but in such solution
as to enable the plant to absorb twill
find mine Of wealth opening under bis
feet.
1t was great tbIig for poor mortal TO
have hs nauraa sSafhxed to as tar or conti-
nent, like HertcAel or Americ but surely
there was no small satisfaction in being re-
membered when friends eat fruit together,
aud bless the producer of the Bartlett pear
and the Hoyey strawberry, and other like
dainties. The culture of the growing plant
rises almost into the dignity Of process Of
education and putting all the processes
together, and regarding the labors of the
farmer in the fual result, bis work not only
spreads out in boundless extent but lift.
itself up in the most benign and exalted
relations. 1t allies itself with the growth
of sheep and cattle, the food and clothing
of man, the. wealth Of nations, the process
OF arts, the welfare of schools and colleges
and even the spread of religion. What
triumph has the American farmer achiyed
from q b ur when he FIRST, at Plym u h G
Maphattan or jamestown, broke with th
spade the sod Of this new continent, to tbi
night, whose harVest-moon, in her wa,
from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast
throws her pale and magical light upol
three millions of square miles of our do

WHEAT As A WEED. II has long been
suspected that the cereal grains are bat
cultivated examples Of wild cereal grasses--
that they we're not created as corr, but they
have been improved by culture into their

confirmed by M. Fabre, Of Adge. in the
eouth Of France, who, In 1888, sowed some
grrdAs o. lhe Agiiops oraia, common
cereal grass. and BY successive sowing in
garden soil, produced In 1870, crops Of
real wheat as fne as any 10 be found IN the
