across the smiling valley,

See across the smiling valley,
Where the yellow corn-fields stand
Fruitful with the red mans blessing,
Rise the mountains tall and grand,
With their cloudy purple submits
Gazing far across the land
Seem they like great chiefs in council,
Stern and thoughtful every one;
Like a big eye, downward peeringi
Through the cloud-rifts looks the sun
On the broad vale, fair and shining,
Where the silver rivers run
There the smoke of many wigwams
Like a soft haze hovers blue;
There beside the lisping river
safe is moored the birch canoe,
That with light stroke, quick and steady.
Glides the CLASSY waters through.
Hither comes the dry-voiced robin,
With the sunset on his breast,
Deepest dye of happy crimson,
Borrowed from the glowing west,
That with flaming coIors kindles
When the great sun sinks to rest.
Yonder see the forests monarch,
See the oak-tree burning red,
Like a warrior IN his war paint,
Lifting nigh his fearful head,
With his tall crown plumed with feather,
And his giant arms Outspread-
see the becch-trees gathering russell
BY the shady woodland stream;
Like the young men Of our people,
supple, hard and strong they seem,
Ike my warrior my frfrs lover.
Beautiful as any dream
sec the NAPLES, bright and golden,
Like the CAV queens of our race;
And the young ash, tall and slender,
Bending lightly in its place,
Like youthful Indian maiden,
b'uli of beauty and of grace.
Yonder on the ElOping hillside,
Misty with the floating seeds;
In the wind like gay plumes noddnIS-
see the yellow, golden reeds;
see the sumach's fiery berries
Shine like strings of golden beads.

In these leaves of gold and red,
Like the sound of mingled voices
Mourning for spirit fled
Voices raised in lamentation

Slowly falling, chill and damp,
Like the tread of stealthy footsteps,
Like the dull and muflled tramp
When our warriors, for the war-path,
File from out their silent camp.

LADDERs.-Among the implements needed
on every farm is a good supply of ladders
A long ladder is always necessary to reach
the top of building in case of fire. A
shorter ladder for roofs and the walls of
buildings is also necessary. A ladder five or
six feet in height is often convenient for fruit
trees. One can hardly do without these
three ladders but there is one other ladder
which is very convenient in painting buildings,
and especially in gathering fruit. 1t con-
sists of two ladders put together like the
rafters of a building. These may have a
small platform on the top which any ordina-
~ mechanic can make, which person
can stand for the purpose of gathering fruit,
grating, or any other kind of work requir
ing such an elevation. Now let light piece
of wood be attached by pin to each side of
the platform so as to keep the ladder from
falling sideways, and it is complete. Such a
ladder wi last great many years and be Of
as mnch real use as any other article on the
farm as labor-saving continuance. We
believe that whoever makes such an imple-
ment will be in the same situation as the
man who after twenty years of farming
bought grindstone, and wondered why he
had never had one before.
We may safely set it down as good rule,
that in farming 1t is good economy to provide
ourselves with such tools as will lessen our
labor in the various operations of the farm.
Who would think now days of raising
two hundred bushels of corn and then shell
ing it out on fire shovel as our fathers and
farmers boys often did half century ago
corn-sheller can be bought for few dol
lars that will perform the labor of several
men by the old mode Of operation, and
man would save his time by working out at
days labor saving wood till he had &C
ouired mOnev enough to buv one.-InSenious
farmers and mechanics are constantly a.

HoxE RAISED STocK.-There are many
practical farmers who are of the opinion
that it will not pay to raise our own
horses, steers and COWS; and, better
than some of their opinions, they support it
by their practice. A few years since steer
which now costs sixty dollars, could have
been bought for thirty, and even then there
was more stock raised in proportion to the
amount needed than there is now, and yet it
costs no more now than then.
In my mind there is not the least doubt
but that if properly done it will not only
pay. but will pay well. But if done in the
manner too often practiced, I very much
doubt whether it will pay.
The first, and in fact the most important
item with al kinds of stock, AMI especially
via cattle. Is to get good grade stock to
st.rt With. A good calf Of improved stock

Many who raise calves are satisfied to OBJ.
tain the services of the bull nearest and at
the lowest price, in preference to going
farther and paying more. thus cutting off all
hopes of any improvement in the stock at the

the cost of steer makes but little difference
in his cost at four years old, while if proper
ly expended it adds much to his value.
We often zee farmers worrying along with
a..pair of halfbroken steers (called out of
compliment, oxen) which are actually al
most as much trouble as they are worth
while for less than what these cost they
might raise for themselves a pair of good
oxen, which would perform the work re-
quired in much less time than such as they
are in the habit of using.
1t may not pay on all farms, and under all
circumstances to raise stock, but it certainly
does to raise oxen, which cost no more and
worth much more in the actual cash
value, as well as for the convenience in work
ing, which is no small inducement to me-
