Oiiing Farm Implements.

EVERY farmer should have a can Of lin
seed-oil and brush on hand: and when
ever he buys new tool, he should soak it
well with the oil and dry it by the fire or
in the sun, before using. The wood by
this treatment is toughened and strength
ened, and rendered imperviOus to water
Wet new hay-rake and when it dries it
will begin to be loose in the joints but if
we'll oiled, the wet will have but slight
effect. Shovels and forks are preserved
from checking and cracking in the top of
the handle by oilng; the wood becomes
smooth as glass by use, and is far less La
Axe and hammer handles often break off
where the wood enters the iron this part
particularly should be toughened with oil,
to secure durability. Oiling the wood in
the eye Of the axe will prevent its swell
ing and shrinking, and sometimes getting
loose The tools on a large farm cost a
large sum of money; they should be OF
the most approved kinds 1t is poor
economy, al the present extravagant prices
for labor, to set men at work with ordi-
nary, Old-iashioned implements. Labor
ers should be required to return their tools
| to the convenient places provided for them,
after using; they should be put away
| clean and bright. The mold-boards OF
| plows are apt to get rusty from one sea
son to another, even if sheltered they
| should be brushed over with few drops
of oil when put away, and will then re-
main in good order till wanted. -Fdrm

ALFRED was missing one night about
sunset. Mother was getting anxious, for
she always wished him to be home early
\ neighbor, coming in, said a number OF
boys had gone to the river to swim, and
he thought Alfred was safe enough to be
with them.
NO." said the mother, che promised
me he would not go there without my
leave, and he atlo0ys keeps his word. He
never told me lie"
But seven o'clock came, then eight, and
mother was still watching and listening
for the step of Alfred; but it was half-past
eight before his merry shouts and whistle
were heard, when he ran into the gate.
a" Confess, nOw," said the neighbOr
"that you have been to the river with the
other boys, and so kept away till late"
How the boys eye flashed, and the Grim
son mounted to his checks!
mo, sir Il told my mother / would
neUer 90 there without her leave, and do
you Thank acould tell LeP i helped
James 10 find the cows which had strayed
in the wood, and did not think should
be so late"
James, coming up the street just then,
came in 10 tell us he was afraid we had
been alarmed they bad been so far in
the wood it made them late In getting
home.
Il think" said theneighbor, turning to
the mother as he took his hat to go home,
there is comfort in store for you, madam.

Inventions aud Patents.

II an article showing the necessity Of
applicants for patent rights having com
petent counsel and assistance in securing
the full advantages to he derived from
letters patent, the Chicago Bureau of a
recent date says:
We deem IL a fortunate circumstance
that an imperative necessity, thus existing,
IS met in Our city by the recent establish
s.senr here Of firm, whose qualifications
in integrity, competent knowledge Of me
chanics and law, and long experience, en-
title them To- the full confidence of the
public. We refer to the house of Farwell
Ellsworth d Co, the senior partner Of
which, Gov Farwell, of Wisconsin, was
for seven years principal examiner of in
ventlons In the patent office at Washing
ton; and Maj i. n. Ellsworth, attorney
and counselor -at-law, the junior partner,
who was for many years engaged in a
large patent practice in the same city.
We pen this article without the knOwl-
edge 0fthe house, or even an acquaintance
with any of its members, save what is
public in their well-knOwn reputation
here, and in the radius of the patent
office at Washington and the ability to
do so gives us the greater satisfaction
from the fact of trying experience to
which friends and ourselves have been
subjected from the want of such facilities,
a repetition which can be avoided by
others, by securing the services of these
gentlemen. 1t is also a matter Of con-
graduation that thus, one by one, the
wants and plans of our community, in its
great business enterprises and interests,
are amply met end provided for.

Ditching and Draining.

THESE important items in farm manage
ment cannot be too frequently placed be-
fore the farming community. Many are
deferred from Undertaking on account
| of the heavy expense, although it may be
safely affirmed that the entire expense of
undertaking land is always returned to
the farmer in the three following crops,
| and often in the first.
Tiles are, of course, the best means with
which to form the water way, but tiles are
so expensive that they are comparatively
little used. Good serviceable drains can
be made either with lumber, sawed for the
purpose into five or six inch widths, or
even with brush and poles; in either case,
however, the expense of the drains is
| heavy, and what has its effects also, the
work is hard and disagrceable, and where
| the labor of a farm depends on the farmer
himself or on the members of his family,
it is difficult to get work of that nature
performed; then again, to dig drains
| properly is a trade, and requires consider
able experience and special tools, and
| rather than purchase the necessary tools
the farmer often loses ten times the value
OF them in a single season.
| Draining cannot be recommended too
strongly, but where draining cannot be
| done, ditching can, and this is the second
best thing. Few farms require bitches of
more than two feet deep from the adioin-
ing level, and where bitches are not deeper
| than that, the entire work can be done
with the plOw and the road scraper, thus
putting the hard labor on the horses and
not on the men, and rendering the task an
| easy one.
If water is got off the land quickly in
| the spring when the SHOWS melt, the land
is never wet during the subsequent season;
| whereas, if the winters rain and snow are
| allowed to lodge on the ground, and soak
away, it puts the crop back for aconsider-
able time, rerders the land cold and sour,
and throws the earliest and best sown fall
wheat into the nudge season. Where a
field is wet or fiat there ought to be ditch
ali around it, the earth thrown out by the
plOw in forming it on one side being made
up into a bank for the fence, and on the
other, spread ont on the adjoining land as
| evenly as possible, and so as to prevent
the water from forming a Judgement. For
forming such bitches as these nothing
can be better than the plow; nothing
moves earth so fast or SO cheaply, and by
proper management the greater portion
of the earth in the future ditch never re-
quires touching with any other implement.
When the earth can no longer be profit
ably heaved out of the ditch with the
pillow, that implement should be used,
without mOld-board, to loosen the soil,
and the earth SO moved carried out of the
ditch on the adjoining land with the road
scraper. No ditch ought to be of less
width at the bottom than the ordinary
read scraper; if it is, the poaching of
cattle searching for water and treading
down the banks, soon fills it up-Cdnddd

The Three Brothers.

THREE little brothers once lived near a
wood where the trees grew thick and
large The names of these boys were
John, William and Reuben. Their parents
were poor, and in the winter the brothers
would go into the woods and gather
sticks
These sticks they would tie in bundles
or fagOts, and sell them in the nearest
town
Early each winter morning, the boys
would cross the little bridge that lay in
front of their house and 60 to the woods.
One cold day, when their father was i'll,
they went alone into the woods; and
John, the eldest boy, said, "NOw, Willie,
you and Reuben go and get the biggest
sticks you can find, and bring them to me
and | will bind them up into fagots"
So the little boys went to work, though
it was bitter cold, and Jack Frost nlpped
their hands and feet till they were numb
They worked till it was dark, and then it
began to snow.
= Little Reuben was so tired and sleepy
that he could hardly see. So John took
him on his back; and the three boys
started for home, leaving the fagOts piled
up where they could get them the next
day.
| But the snow fell faster and faster, anG
/ soon covered up the track which led tC
their home: so that they wandered out Of
their way
The mother sat watching for them, ant
hoping every moment to hear their voices
at the door. The snow drifted up under
the window of the little cottage, and GOV
cred the bridge that lay in sight.
AS hour after hour went by, and the
boys did not come, she became alarmed
and at last went to Farmer Dawson, who
lived near by, and told him her fears.
"There, there, stop crying, my goo(
woman" said Farmer Dawson; if tn,
boys have lost their way, the Captain ant
| will find them. Never fear Here
Susan, bring my great coat and Lantern
and staff, and :ell Jonas and Tom to come
with me-"
The Captain was dog and, as he wa:
| called, he came barking out from tn,
wood shed, glad to be of some use in the
world. Jonas and Tom were men who
helped the farmer.
They had not gone half mile into the
woods when the Captain darted off to
ward great tree, and began to bark
There they arel The Captain ha
found them. l knew he would" sale
Farmer Dawson.
And SO it was. The poor boys, tireC
and chilled through, had sat down unde
"A tree and they could hardly speak when
the Elen came up.
Each nan took boy on his back, an,
in this way they all went home ant
there the boys were rubbed with snow
| till they were warm and well.
How glad were their father and mothe
to have them safe once more in thei
arms, by the cheerful cottage fire The,
laughed and they cried
The Captain had big bowl Of mill
that night as reward for his good con
duct-1he Nursery.
