Every farmer who has practice9
fall top dressing knows it is inya'
lnable. fhis does not ariss so much
from tbs ferlilixiag matter in tn,
dressing AS from thefact that il pro
'tects the surface Of the Garth from
sudden changes OF tho temperature
prevents its fceezing so early in
the fall, or losing its moisture and
heat by 4 too direct contact with the
wind. In short, the real benefit
of fall top dressing is In its mulch
ing the soil. Stable manure is too
valuable to bo used forthis purpose
Far better to keep this TO apply in
the spring, and then cover il with
earth immediately. At least nine
ty par cent of manure, used a.
fall op-dreesing, is wasted by pas
ing into the atmosphere. Nearly the
same result can be obtained by fall
top-dresing with le ives, by straw, or
any other substance that will cover
the surface. Let a farmer try the
experiment, by thus mulchIng u
small piece of grass land with sraw,
leaves, or other like substance, in
the fall, and apply the manure in
the spring and on another. piece
apply tho same quantity Of man
ure inthe fall, and gives us the re-
sult.-Ohio Farmer.

oao-Armoi Ingenuity.

A correspon lent Of the In lian
apolis Journ u says: At Pennsyl
vaniaburg, Ripley county, Indiana
| met a most remarkable ease of
one armed ingenuity. Robert Lew
is, ayoung man without home or
kindred, who had to earn his
bread by hard, daily labor, ear!y
in the war, and at the minimum
age, entered the service as u pri-
vate in General Spooncr's rcgi-
ment, the 83d Indiana. At the
battle of Chickasaw Bluff, Robert
lost his arm at the shoulder. After
much suffering he returned to his
former home. The loss of an arm
only seemed TO impress him with
the idea that greater energy would
be required if he would make an
honorable living.
lle began TO study at night anl
every leisure moment. Soon he
qualified himself for teaching.
About this time he did what would
usually be, under similar circum.
stances, a very foolish thing-he
( got married Bat his wife accept.

to laugh at poeoriy and help hor
husband earn their bread
He taught school in the wintcr.

armed man, except that his wife
and mother assisted in raising il.
Not being ablo to procure ioists to
suit him, he sawed them out of II
twoinch plank.

chlmncys, made tho door and sash
IN snort, no sound OF hammer or
any tool was heard about the build
