KIND WORDS.

How true is it that kind words can never
die" They are indelibly written upon the
tablets of the memory. Time may and does
efface from the recollection many of the trans
actions connected with business, and every
day life, but kind and sympalhizing words
spoken in a time of sorrow live TO cheer and
encourage long after death has silenced the
tongue by which they were spoken. When
Mnngo Park was perishing Of thirst in the

Feeding Meal to Stock.

[ believe there are many farmers
who feed from 4 to s quarts of meal
a day to one beef creature, till they
feed from seven to ten cwt. Of meal
to one beef, and who never slaught-
cred an ordinary sized beef that
yields upward of forty pounds of
rough tallow.
These farmers feed their meal
dry. This is great waste. My prac-
tise in fattening beef and swine, as
well as feeding cows for milk, has
been to pour water on as much meal
as would not make the animals bow
els move too freely, at night and in
the morning; when the mush is cool,
give it to the COW or pig.
In covering the meal with boiling
water in this way, the starch Of the
grain is dissolved, and the latent nu-
trItIve properties extracted, and
the animal receives the entire nu-
triment of the grain.
| calculate stock do not, in eating
dry meal, receive more than one half
OF the goodness of the meal. There
Is not action enough in mastication,
Or heat sufficient in the stomach ofI
the animal, to extract the entire and
real sweetness of the grain.
Had l roots, l should feed them to
my fattening beef. But not having
any [ feed only meal and hay, and
have fatted two ordinary sized COWS,
two years past. and to which l fed
only three cwt. Of meal each, and |
they each yielded upwards of 40
pounds Of rough tallow. Once "a
week, throw into the mush a little
salt, and occasionally a tablespoon
full ofgood ashes.
My experience teaches me that
one cwt. of meal, fed as described a
bove, is equal to two cwt. fed dry.
Try it, young farmer, and see if you
can endorse this.

BE YOUR OWN RIGHT HANp MAN.

People who have been boIstered ur ard
.evered all their lives, are seldom good for
anything in crisis. When misfortune comes,
they look around for somebody TO cling to,
or lean upon. IF the prop is not there, down
they GO Once down, they are as helpless as
capsized turtles, or unhorsed men in armour,
and cannot find their feet agan without assis-
lance. Such sil1en fellows no more resemble
self made men, who have fought their way to
position, making difficulties their stepping
stones, and deriving determination from their
defeat, than vines resemble oaks. or spluiter-
ing rush lights, the stars of heaven. Efforts
persisted to achievements train man to self
reliance, and when he has proved to the world
that he can trust himself the world viii trust
him. We say, therefore, that it is unwise to
deprive young men of the advantages which
result from the energetic action, by 'boosting"
them over obstacles which they ougth to sur
mount alone No one ever swan well who
placed his confidence in a cork jacket; and if
when breasting the sea OF life, we cannot
buoy ourselves up and try to force ourselves
ahead by dint Of our own energies, we are not
salvage, and it is of little consequence wheth-
er we "sink or swim, survive or perish"
One of the best lessons a father can give to
his sons is this: "Work; strengthen your NOR
al and mental faculties, as you would strength
en- your muscles by vigorous exercise. Learn
to conquer circumstances, You are then indie
pendent of fortune. The men of athletic
minds who leave their marks on the years in
which they lived, were all trained in a rough
school. They did not mount their high posi-
lions by the help of leverage, they leapt into
chasms, grappled with the opposing rocks,
avoided avalanches and when the goal was
reached felt that but for the toll that ha0
strengthened them as they strove, it could new
er have been attained"

Wood DEMONSTRATION.

A Wood mass meeting, Infinitely more hon
orabl and patriotic than those gotten up BY
Fernando Wood, of New York, took place at
Lebanon, Warren county, few days ago,
which is thus described by the Lebanon Star
The farmers Of old Warren fairly outdid
themselves last Saturday. From every direc-
tion they came each with load OF wood for
the families of our brave volunteers. The diff-
erent delegations formed in procession outside
the corporation lines. and moving in, joined
10 one grand procession long enough to reach
entirely round the town. There were one
hundred and ffly-two Wagons in the process
sion, many of them drawn by four horses,
and all loaded to their full capacity. The Le-
banon Cornet Band headed the procession,
which, after parading the streets, halted IN
Broadway, blocking the street from sidewalk
to sidewalk. Here they were addressed By
Rev j. Philips. who spoke for the Union.
and with the spirit and understan
ding. 1t was grand sight, that array Of
wood wagons, and did more for the Unioe
cause in Warren county than any Union mass
meetingsthat could have been assembled
Loads of wood were sent to the families Of our
brave boys in the army, and large quantities
were deposited in a vacant lot near
the Court House. Over one hundred cords
Of wood were brodght to town. Besides those
in the procession, soma thirty or forty loads
were brought in, and distributed,
"We understand it is proposed to have a i
wood saving party to be made up III Leban- /

Curious CoINcIDENCE-Our readers will
remember that in 1860 man by the name of
Grosjean was indicted in this county for muir
der IN the second degree, and found guilty OF
mansaughter, and sentenced by Judge Church
to the penitentiary for one year. The pro OF
was that he threw stone apparently without
any intention of killing the man with whom
be was having trouble, but which did hit him
on his head and occasioued his death. After
serving out his sentence III the penitentiary.
he returned and enlisted in the 10th Ohio
Volunteers and was detailed as a teamster.-
About two months ago he got into Difficult
ty with another teamster, who, during the
quarrel threw a stone at Gro$jean, bit him on
the head and killed him. Canton CO., RePOs-

Profits of Fruit Culture.

1t is stated il. an exchange paper
that E. Lake, Of Topsfeld, Mass,
gathered from one acre of Baldwin
russet apples two hundred barrels,
at four dollars, besides one and a
half tons Of marrow squashes and
one hundred heads Of cabbages, one
of which weighed twenty-seven lbs.
also that lady in Gainstown bought
eight acres of WORKOUT, stony, land;
at forty dollars an acre, and set it
out in an orchard at an expense of
two hundred dollars. She cropped
it every year, cleared two hundred
dollars a year, and at the end of six
years after the purchase refused
twenty-five hundred for the field
There are hundreds of acres of land
in our Northern, Eastern and Mid
die States, now stony, barren, worn
out and useless, which would yield
a crop worth hundreds of dollars per
acre, with a little enterprise and
small outlay on the part of the own
er.

Hints for Lady Florists.

One of the greatest mistakes
made in fower-garden every year
is attempting to much and crowding
the ground. "My lady" visits sew
eral fine gardens during the sum
mer. and sees brilliant novelties,
which she thinks she must have next
year. Or she gets several nursery
catalogues, and, reading the high
sounding desc ription of plants, she
orders more than her garden can
hold, or than she can take care Of
The consequence is, they fail to do
well, and she and her visitors are
not satisfied with the effect. A
much better way is, to sit down at
the beginning of the summer, and
settle in ones mind how much room
there will be for new things, and
what are, on the whole, the best
Get only these, and take the best
possible care of them. Give them
the right soil, and keep it clean and
well stirred. Keep the tall plants
neatly tied to stakes. The edgings
to the beds should be always well
trimmed, the walks clean and hard,
and the whole ground neat and tidy.
Such garden will always give sat

THE SECRET OF BEING LOVED.

William Wirt's letter to his his daughter
on the sweet cour:esies OF life" contains a
passage FROM which deal of happiness might
be learned: Il want TO tell you a secret
The way to make yourself pleasing to others,
is to show that you care for them. The
whole world is like the miller of Mansfield
who cared for nobody-no, not because
nobody cared for him And the whole world
will serve you the same, if yCu give them the
same cause. Let all persons, therefore, see
that you do care for them, by showing them
what Sierne so happily calls the small, sweet
courtesies in which there is no parade; whose
voice is too still to taste, aud which manifest
themselves by tender and afectionaie looks,
and little kind acts of attention"

Training the 1awton blackberry

Most cultivutors train the Lawton
Blackberry as a sturdy bush, allow
ing it to cover a space of from four
to six feet in diameter. In this way
we saw it bearing in great profusion
on the grounds of Mr.. Knox, at
Pittsburg.
MIR. Mottier has a very different
way of training the greedy Lawton,
and he thinks it much better than
to let it grow in the bush FORM
His practise is to trim each cane,
leaving only spurs of only six or
eight inches, in length, and then tie
up the canes to stakes, the same way
that grapes are tied up. BY this
practice, the Lawton occupies no
more space to the vine, than the
and Mr.. Mottier says he
gets better quality of fruit, and
much more getat-able together
We saw canes in his briar patch
that would make good bean poles.--

AG RICULTU Al
A Word of Advice.

4 spring has never opened, bring
ing with it more active, pressing, or
important duties of the farmer than
the present. The melancholy stu
alton of our country is such, that, in
stead Of releasing a large number of
men from the service-as we so
fondly hoped one year ago-it Is
likely to call to its support an addi-
tional number These, as has been
the case heretofore, will be largely
taken from the producing class
And while there is as earnest a de-
mand upon the farmer to plant and
sow as largely as at any former pc
riod in the history of rebellion, the
help upon which he was depending
to perform this work will, in part
be transferred to other fields Of la
Dor. What shall make up. this de
ticiency? How can the labor Of our
farms be performed? Fortunately |
the use of machinery, which will be
brought more largely into requisi-
tion than heretofore, can be very |
sately y relied upon; and there is
hardly any branch of farm work
which cannot be greatly forwarded
by its application. We believe up
on most farms improved implements
and machinery are now to be found,
and it may be deemed advisable for
those who cannot buy a mower, or
some equally costly machine, to hire
one for the purpose of doing a part
of their labor, and for this it might
also be well for some one to pur-
chase a machine in view of such
use. We believe it would pay a
good interest. Again, neighbors
who live at reasonable distances s.
part can exchange, and in that way
perform the heaviest part of their
work. The female portion Of the
household can also, assist in the
lighter part of the outdoor labor,
such as gardening, etc, in cases
where there are enough to perform
the labor indoors. The lesson of
doing things well must also be learn
ed and practised, and no crop plant
ed in superficial manner. Manure ;
we'll, use good seed, give good after :
and the crop will yield an :
ample reward. :
