Manure Making In summer.

This is generally overlooked, in the press
Of field work which engrosses the attention
Of the cultivater during the Summer. Yet
there are occasional hours which can be prof
itably employed in this work Except where
the natural fertility of the soil is for the
present sufficient to meet all the wants Of
growing crops, other things being equal, the
prosperity Of the farmer will be found to
maintain remarkable ratio to their stten-
tion to enriehing his land, We believe that
on hundreds offarms it would well repay the
cost, to employ an extra hand for the express
purpose Of collecting and preparing manures.
The sources from which materials are " he
drawn Of course vary in different localities
but the principal ones are among the tol-
lowing: 1st, the barn-yard. Where ca:ilr
are yarded at night their dropplngs, if left
uncared for, as is usually the case, lose a
large part Of their value, by drying Out un-
der the hot summer sun. Eyadoration car
ries off Much If the ammonia, enc Ofthe most
valuable ingredients, and it is waited along
by the air to be distributed in ininitesim&l
portions over The surrounding country. the
careful manager will provide muck, sods,
soil, or other absorbent to mix with excre-
mens every Gew days, either by shoveling
over by heaps, or by piowing up the yard,
which is more expeditions though less tay0ra-
bic to tAe cleanliness Of the yard, were milk
ing is Usually done.
Along the roadside and too often by the
f,ncelines, are number7ss weeds which have
drawn part Of their support from. the soil,
and gathereded the remainder from the air
and moisture. They are stored with fertil-
izing material, and if cut and worked over by
the pigs in the pen, or made into a heap with
muck and lime added, will swell the store Of
grain and grass-makiug substances. The
slops and refuse from an orish nearly Or quit
good manure enough to noursh the vegeta-
bles they consume. Usually these are worse
than wasted by being thrown into some cor
nor, whore weeds grow rampant On the val,
liable deposit. Then there are the pfivies
the contents of which, utilized by mixing
with muck, or co nmon soil, might add Nigor
to the growth Of garden and field, but which
commonly make their locality only nuis-
anco. Many swamps whish are inaccessible
at tier seasons can now be entered, draw
from them the accumulation Of vegetable ma

tables, in short any desirable product on the
farm. Cheap hands, such as could not profit

muck and throw it into heaps, to be acted on

creas tiiJ compost heap. All these sources
should be turned TO account during the sum
mer, if even extra help be required to ae-
complsh it, If the Agricullurja should do
more than induce cultivators to their atten-
tion to the available supplies Of manure and
their proper application to crops, it would
accomplish enough to many times repay its
cost to the community.

SPRING MORNING.

How, bright, light, and beautiful. 1t is
indeed scene of rapture to the thinking
mind. To me it seems new era dawning;
the breaking of the slumbering bounds of
winter. Nature seems free and rejoicing in
her freedom. The frozen earth, warmed by
the genial rays of the sun, as she rises high
er and higher towards the zenith, and the
gentle showers soften the fertile earth, and it
is covered everywhere with the green grass
intermingled with the modest daisey, and
snowdrops lifting their white blossoms. And
the sweet hyacinth, wet with the morning
dew, spreads a delightful fragrance. The
sun peeps forth from below the horizon, and
the dew drops sparkle everywhere like da-
mond.. The year is in its youth, and its
fairness has not yet felt the heat of Summer s
sun, Or the chilling blast of Autum. Spring
Will soon je gone. Summer, tho height Of
perfection, will be here. Autumn will soon
follow, and Llast verythiug, and Winter
comes 70 cover the rcproach Of the dying
year. Then reader, in the spring-time OF
youth, am at some higher object than tic
low and groveiing iriyolites Of earth. You
think Of pleasure now as the only iii subject
OF your attention. Pleasure Will soon pass
away, and with it youth and beauty, and
what will you be when Autumn comes upon
you. 1t is true you have had pleasure, but
you will have none then, for even the plea.-
ure that you used to enjoy so much will bc
one cause Of your sorrow then. | am young
and should not attempt to usurp the place OF
adviser, but | hnve seen and know that such

man nature, an disposed to think Of how

Winters chilling blasts are past,
Sweet Spring time has come at last,

Some farmers would build sheds for their
manure, if it were not for the trouble
Others would dose, if they did not fear fire
laugpg, or waste by drying up. But the
ouble is nothing 10 an industrious man
and if the heap is properly managed, there,
is no danger from excessive heat. By pro-
tectins it from wind, sun, rain, aud iOzsAiag,
its yaluo will be largely Increased.
1t is doubtless true that horse-inauure
alone, if covered, will suffer from too rapid
decomposition. But this can easily be pre-
vented b mixing with 1t, as the heap is
forming, freq uent "dviders" Of muck, tam
bark or common soil The very best way is
to throw up rowgh sheds, without siding,
over the port holes OF the barn, large
enough to c3ver the dung-hcaps and large
pile Of muck. Every few days, after the
stalls are cleaned out, let man shovel al
equal amount Of muck over the pile of frest
manure This will absorb the liquid part
ond prevent "aro-faging.' And when thi
heap is finally shoyelel over and mixed, TIL
compost will be as valuable as an equa
amount of simple manure.
We are cont nualiy hearing of farmers whc
accidentally learned the lesson We now teach
They now never think of leaving thsir ma.
nure "out in the cold" They know that the
increased value Of their manure annually is
fouIiold greater than the cost Of their sheds.

AnsrxIcAL oRNAMEXrs.--A few days ago
little girl had bunch of artificial grapes
given to her. After amusing herself with
the toy, she gave it to playmate Of her own
age, who presently picked a grape off the
bunch, and sucked it, Tho next day she
was a corpse. An eminent physician who
annelised the plaything, deposed tkat ten OF
the grapes yielded three grains of arsenic OF
copperA-a deadly poison--aad thas each vine
leaf on the bunch contained enough 10 kill
child. Another child's cupboard, in which
its toys were kept was lined with green pa

obviously from the effects of poison nyste-

Cease to speculate and begin to practice
You have lost time enough already. Every
hour spent without abandoning sin and be-
lieving on Jesus, is an hour wasted; worse
still, it is an hours additional guilt incur
red. Those who tell you that the soul is
wholly "passive" in the work of conversion
mslead you. Bartimeus was active in com
ing to Christ, active in praying to him for
restoration to sight, voluntary in submitting
to be cured but in rscsic,ng the miraculous
gift of sight, he was indeed passive" for he
could not be otherwise When you do for
your blind and dcprayed heart what Barti-
meus did for his blind eyes, you will soon be
found, like him, rejoicing and following
Jesus in the way"

TAKING TOLL.

MIR. Smith Kept drug shop IN the lit
tie village Of o., which was situated
few miles from Lancaster. 1t was his
custom to visit the latter place every week
or two, in order to purchase such articles
as were needed from timo to time in his
business. One Gay he drove off toward
l4aucester, III AS wagon among otner
things Mas q gallon derijJhn. On reach
with the inquiry
Have you any common wine"
'kIew common?' asked the grocer.
About dollar gallon. / want it for
ant;monial wine
Yes; / have some just fit for that, and
not much else, which l Will sell ut a dol
lar
Very well. Give me gallon said
Mr.. Smith.
The demjohn was brought in from the
WAGON and filled. And then Mr.. Smith
drove oil to attend to other business
Am3n. the things to be done ON that day
was t. see a man who lived half miie
from Lancaster. Before going out on his
erraud, Mr.. Smith stopped at the house OF
his p,racu ar friend, Mr.. Jones. Mr..
Jones happened not to be in, but Mrs.
Jones was pleasant woman, and he chat
ted with her ten minutes or So. AS he
stepped into his wagon, it struck him that
the gallon dcmjohn was little in his
way, and so lifting it out, he said to Mrs.
Jones' u
Il wish you could take care of this un-
til | come back
%, certainly replied Mrs. Jones, with
the greatest Of pleasure ~
And so the demijohn was left in the
lady's care. -nrr
Some time afterward Mr.. Jones came
in, and among the first things thatattraot-
ed his attention was the strange demi-
john.
What is this?' was his natural inquiry.
Something Mr.. Smith left
Mr., Smith from O.?
yes
4 wonder what he has here?' said Mr..
Jones, taking hold of the demijohn.
The cork was unhesitatingly removed,
and the mouth of the vessel brought in
contact with the smelling organ of Mr.
Jones'
Wine, as livep fell from his lips,
Bring me glass.
'Ol no, Mr., Jones. wouldn't touch
his wine, said Mrs Jones.
Bring me glass Do you think I'm
going to let gallon of wine pass my way
without exarting toll? No--nol Bring
me glass.
'The glass, a half pint tumbler, was pro
duced, and nearly filed with the execra
BILE stuf-as guiltless of grape juice as Q
dyer's vat-which was poured down the
throat of Mr.. jones. Pretty fair wine
that, only little rough said Mr.. Jones
smacking his lips.
'It's a skamep remarked Mrs. Jone
warmly, 'for you to do So
Il only took toll,' said theahusband
laughing. NO harm in that, I'm sure.
Rather heavy toll, it strikes me- re
piled Mrs. Jones.
Meantime Mr.. Smith, having completet
most of his business for that day, stopped
at store where he wished two or thre
articles put up. While these were in pre-
paration he said to the keeper Of the store
