reclining position on the floor. | asked him
where are you wounded?' He replied, in a
feeble way, In the head; you have finished

building into the open air, where he died
about two hours and half afterwards.
About an hour before he breathed bis last,
be prayed for Us to shoot him through the
heart, and thus end his misery. His suffer-
ings appeared TO be intense. Although he
could have killed several of our party, Booth
seemed to be afraid to fire. Mine was the
only shot fred on either side. When he fell,
he had IN his hand six-barrelled revolver,
and at his feet was laying a seven-shooter,
which he dropped after he was wounded
Two other revolvers were also near him
He declared that the arms belonged to him,
and that Harold had nothing to do with the
murder.
We gave Booth brandy, and four men went
in search of Doctor, whom we found about
four miles from the scene of the occurrence,
but when the Doctor arrived Booth was

his wound. When asked if he had anything

AGRICULTURE-Ihe Use Of SROa0 as an Ladi-
rect Enricher of Soils The farmer is often
heard to lament the occurrence of a late fall
of snow, which he would not do did he duly
appreciate its office, or its relations to the
products of his farm. Snow is not necessari-
ly accompanied by frOsts; if it were so, its
late fall would truly be real calamity TO the
farmer. IL has been known to fall in consid-
cradle quantities while fruit trees were load
ed with foliage and blossoms, while no fur
Their injury to the fruit was observed to result
than what was incident to its weight, on the
breaking of its tender leaves and petals.
The atmosphere nearly always exhibits the
presence of ammonia, but in varied quantities,
which correspond to the amount of decompo-
sition of vegetable and animal matter in the
vicinity Such decomposing matters being
formed of materials which contain nitrogen,
by their union with hydrogen form that vol
atile substance ammonia. Ammonia is the
most valuable constituent Of farm yard
manure.
Snow is remarkable for its capacity to alb
sorb ammonia from the atmosphere, which it
retains till it melts, when it is directly i'm
parted 10 soils, and in the most favorable con
ditiOn for its absorption and appropriation
for the growth of plants.
This is one Of natures methods of contrib
uting to the enriching of soils or to furnish
ing food for plants. The observing farmer
has always regarded a snowy winter as likely
to be followed by an abundant harvest; but
he has also justly attributed this to the pro
lection which it furnished against the severe
frOsts of winter. This was not, however, its
greatest value.

CURIOUS FACT.-At the recent wool Grow
ers' Convention in Syracuse, Mr.. Ten Eyck
stated that long wooded sheep would not
thrive when focked with merinos. He had
placed several in a flock of 1900 Merinos,
and the long woods grew poor and unhealthy,
although the pasture was good. Mr.. E. 7.
Ryan, in a communication to the Western
Rural, on coarse wooded sheep, says, in regard
to the mixing of Leicesters with fine woods
in pasture in summer, or folds in winter, that
the strong, poisonous scent of the full blood
Merinos, impairs the appetite, enfeebles the
health, and causes immediate decay in the
vitality of the Leicester sheep. 'sWeigh a
Leicester lamb at six months old, and put him
in clover pasture of abundant feed with
flock OF so or 100 Merinos, and keep him with
them, and he will never gain FIVE pounds in
weight. Keep ing coarse woods by themselves
is the great secret for success in raising them
to the greatest profit"

BONES FOR PoULTRY-Fasten pieces of wide
boards on three sides of hard stone, and
with hammer break the bones from the
kitchen in small fragments, not larger than
peas. Hens that are laying will eat them
with ayidity. Bones from fresh meat, if bro
ken fine so that hens will swallow the pieces,
are excellent TO make them lay. Poultry of
all kinds should be well supplied with sharp
gravel also at this season of the year. Poun-
ded oyster shells, where they can be obtained,
afford one of the best means of supplying
lime.

THE BEsT SHADE TREE-The best shade
tree for this locality is the Elm. 1t is conce-
ded TO be the most beautiful of American
forest trees. In our soil it grows almost as
rapidly as the locust. It is perfectly cleanly.
No worms or ants ever infest il. Il has a
spreading top and dense foliage. When
stripped of leaves in the winter, its delicate
tracery of boughs and twigs and pensile
branches are still beautiful. By all means
plant elms, if they can be obtained, in prefer
ence to other trees

DEPTH TO PLANT PoTAToEs.-The past sea-
son we planted of several varieties of pota-
toes, and at various depths, all however on
clayey soils. The result of the season, was
that our planting at two or three inches deep
aud afterward but little earthed up, gave us
sound and large potatoes, very few small ones,
while those planted four inches deep gave no
more number of potatoes, not as large in size
and many decidedly effected with rot, in fact
some hills so bad that We did not pick them
up after digging.
