year comes house-cleaning. By the
way, of all the foes a housekeeper has
to contend with, dirt is the greatest.
She may gain complete victory and
think to repose upon her laurels after
her semi-annual engagements-but it
is only temporary The enemy soon
returns, and even daily skirmishing
does not keep it at bay.
"Therc is the mending too. Sewing
machines are great blessings, but
they can't set in a patch or darn the
stockings. l do not mention these
things by way of complaining of WON
ans lot in general, or asking for her
any rights which she does not posses.
I don't know as there is any remedJ
in tie present state of the world. 1t
seems to be one Of the evils Of life
which must be borne as we bear 9th
er ills-5ut what | do ask is a due
appreciation of the important part
that woman acts, and a concession
that her labors, mental and physical,
are as great, all things considered ,as
those of the other sex. Women are
not so childish that little sympathy
now and then or acknowledgment of
their efforts and sacrifices make them
imagine their case worse than it is.
I tell you, men and husbands, 1T
doeth good like medicine, 'and many
a poor, crushed, broken-down wife
and mother is dying for want of it."

Farmers Wives.
ARATOR.

The reading of essays by the ladies
is one of the exercises which give life
and interest to the meetings of the
Springfield (Vt.) Farmers Club
From one of the essays by Mrs. Dan
iel Rice, published in the Termaonl
Farmer, we copy the following para.
graphs
"Did you ever think of the amount
Of thought requisite to plan three
meals day for three hundred and
sixty-fve days in succession? Tc
prepare enough and not too much, and
for those living at distance from
the village, to remember that the
stock of flour, sugar, tea, etc, etc, is
replenished in due time? Do you
ever think of the multitude of he1
cares and duties? She must rise ear
ly to prepare breakfast or oversee it.
Perhaps there are children to wash,
dress, and feed, or to get ready for
school with their dinners. There is
baking, sweeping, dusting, making
beds, lunch for the men, may be-din,
ner and supper to be made ready at
the proper time-the washing, starch
ing, folding and ironing of clothes
the care of milk, including the max.
ing of butter and cheese-and the in.
evitable washing of dishes. In au-
tumn there is the additional work of
picking, preserving, canning of fruit,
drying apples, boiling cider, making
apple sauce, with the still more un-
pleasant task which falls to her lot
at butchering time. Then there is
haying, harvesting, sheep-shearing
etc, when more help is needed, bring
ing an increase of her labors. Twice

SHEEP AND DoGs.-The report of the
Illinois woolgrowers' convention as
serts that great losses are caused to
sheep-farmers by vagrant dogs
There are now probably over 3
100000 sheep in the state, worth prob
ably $8,000,0 and yielding a return
Of about $3,000,000 but this branch
of industry suffers greatly from the
ravages of dogs and wolves. and its
further increase-i, ,indeed,it does not
decline--is very much restrained by
the actual loss and fear of loss from
these animals. The Commissioner of
Agriculture estimates that for the
year 1865 the damages resulting from
dogs in the then loyal states, with
their 30,000,000 sheep, was not less
than $3,OO0,000. Estimating the
damages on our 100000 sheep in
illinois at the same rate, gives $780,
600 as our annual direct loss of sheep
killed by dogs. To make the account
full against the dogs, we must also
estimate the cost Of their keeping
Ohio estimates the number of her
dogs at 100000. Illinois has, prob
ably, at least as many, which gives
one to about five of our population.
1t is cheap to estimate the board of
these dogs at twenty-five cents each
per week, which makes $l3 yer year.
But call it $40 each per year, and this
item is then S5,OOO,OOO for the keep
ing of dogs in the state of Illinois,
Your committee believe. that the time
has fully come when remedy should
be applied to this great evil. We be-
lieve that much of the evils resulting
from dogs can be remedied without
very seriously trenching upon the ac-
knowledged benefits and innocent en-
joyment of these animals. We recon-
mend this convention to take some
decided and efficient action to procure
the passage Of law by the state of
Illinois imposing tax of 50 per head
on male dogs, and So on female dogs.

Pennsylvania Legislature, in the year 1859, for
the Mutual Insurance of Country property only,
and Immediately thereafter commenced its oPer,

All losses have been promptly paid out OF the

without making any assessments.
The Insurance of Country properly only, the
