APPLICATION OF MANUREs

This subject is pretty well worn out, yet still its importance warrants our attention. We shall merely detail our own practice withou, claiming it to be the best that can be devised
 At this time, just before winter, We clear out the hog yards and barn yards and sheds o whatever manure has been left over or been made during the summer.
 We select some that is most free from the seeds of grass and weeds to put on the garden and land designed for carrots The scrapings of the milking yard or some we'll fermented ma. nure we apply to our young fruit trees. We put nearly bushel about each tree, to be spread and dug in as soon as the frost is out of the ground in the spring. The rest of the fermen. ted manure is placed in heaps, five or six to the cart load, upon our meadows This is to be spread as soon as it thaws in the spring. Il there is any coarse or strawy manure we put il on our corn ground for the next year. Into our sheds and yards thus cleared we put turf muck and forest leaves, anything that will act as an absorbent and prevent the waste of the manure
 If manure is applied to meadows, in August or September, ws would have it spread, as il will kill the grass where it lies. Spread early it works into the ground and invigorates the roots for start in the spring. If spread late we should be afraid it would wash away in the winter rains, while the ground was frozen.
 The chip manure, though of itself of little value, should be put in the hog yard for year and it will well pay for the trouble No waste matter should be lost, but all vegetable or ani- nal materials should be carefully husbauded as the proper food of future plants.

VERY ROMANTIC ArrA1R.-A romantic af. fair in Cincinnatti;is noticed by the Gazette, running in this wise: Several years since young married couple mutually agreed, for va. rious reasons, to separate. To accomplish this end the friends of both parties experienced great deal of trouble, as it was apparent to all that the young couple loved each other tender y. A short time after the separation the young man quietly left the city, aud during the long years which have elapsed since that time no one but his family have heard from him. The young lady showed her devotion to her former husband by remaining single until few weeks since, when she was united in the bonds of wedlock to well-known gentleman doing business in this city. One day last week No. returned to Cincinnati, and quietly took
 lodging at a private house, where there were no other boarders save newly married couple The landlady of the house desiring to show some attention to her new boarder invited him into the parlor for the purpose of introducing him to her two guests who were there waiting dinner. She approached saying, Mir. -, allow me to introduce-" Here it ended. and scene ensued which it would be difficult to portray. On turning around, the lady gave shriek and fell to the floor. The landlady and husband No. 2 for a moment could not under. stand the situation in which they were placed but is sufficient to Say that the husband and wife who many years before had been separa. ted were again together. A few moments on- ly were required to explain the matter, and to convince husband No. ? that his fascinating young bride was grass widow. He threaten. ed to leave her, and she rather encouraged him in his threat He did so, and they who were ohce separated were again united, more devo- tedly than ever-and so ended what may truly be called romance in real life.

4 SHORT LOVE SToRY-Here is story told by one Morgan, sea captain, concerning the choice of husband at Sea which may afford a profitable hint to young ladies en royage:
 Single ladies often cross the water under the special care of the captain of the ship, and if a love affair occurs among the passengers, ths captain is usually the confdante of one or both parties. A very fascinating young lady had been placed under Mergan's care, and three young men fell desperately in love with her. They were all equally agreeable, and the young lady was very much puzzled which to encourage. She asked the captains advice.
 "'Come on deck,' said he, sthe first day it is perfectly calm the gentlemen ofcourse, will be all near you. I will have a boat quietly lowered down, and you jump overheard and see which of the gentlemen will jump after you.'
 "A calm day soon came, the captains sug- gestions wele followed and two of the lovers jumped after the lady at the instant. But between these two the young lady could not decide, so exactly had been their devotion She again consulted the captain.
 "'Take the man that didn't jump he's the more sensible fellow, and will make about the best husband.'" kesz.. 5.5..1

and the pastoral relation has become a matter of convenience between the contracting parties. Ministers have been virtually thrown back into Ia soit of nomadic life, having about as little at sachment to the soil of their parishes, as the Arabs of the desert. They form no strong 10. cal attachments, and for slight causes they ask dismission of their own prompting. or to suit the caprice of the people. This instability of the pastoral office is by no means confined to the cities and villages. Rural parishes are quite as much infested with the love of change and statistics will show even shorter pastor. ates. .,s., .{ -'
 It is not then altogether an irrelevant oues. tion that we propose to discuss, viz: what can ministers do promote the interests of'agri. culture2 The leading secular interest of tbfes. fourths of our parishes is husbandry. and the temporal prosperity of these communities must wax orswane, with the cultivation of the soil. For want of better method of agriculture. many of these parishes have declined in wealth and population. very steadily, from 1910 to 1850, and if the decline has been arrested, 1t has been within the last ten years. Many oth. CT parishes have remained about stationary, within the same forty years, while the increase of our wealth and population has been msinly confred to our cities and villages. The-im- provement of these rural parishes, their steady increase in population, wealth, the means of education, and of religious culture, depends mainly upon the improvement of their agricul- ture.
