An Excellent Fertilizer.

The Journal Of Chemistry says that one
Of the very best fertilizers used upon tht
farm for all the cereal grains and roo
crops may be made in the following man
ner: to> '# "4- -@4
Take one barrel Of pure. finely ground
bone, and mix with it barrel of good
wash ashes; during the mixing add. gra.
dually, about three pailsful of water. The
heap may be made upon the floor Of an
out building or upon the barn floor !; and
by the use Of a hoe the bone and ashes
must be thoroughly blended together
The water added is just sufficient to libe.
rate the caustic alkalies. potash and soda,
and these act upon the gelatine of the
bone, dissolving the little atoms, forming
a kind Of soap, and fitting it for plant ali
ment. In this way the most valuable
constituents of the bone can be made i'm.
mediately available, and the addition ol
potash and soda aids in the formation Of q
fertilizer of inestimable value. A gill ol
this mixture, placed in bill Of corn. will
work wonders. It is,excellent for garden
vegetables, and for all kindsof roots. Il
will be ready for use in week after it is
made. 'aiS .'''l- ''S' 1.'-.':'t'e.'i J

MONEY AND FARMING. a@
A Toledo correspondent saws !:


"Most writer's on agriculture have in
view the well-to-do farmer, when recon
mending improved i'm plemepts. high farm
ing. blooded stock, etc. Now. a vast ma
jority of farmers are poor, many of them
are 10 debt. and have to labor hard to pay
interest. and cannot save money to make
improvements. Many of them know much
better than they do, and they don't do
better because they lack capital to carry
out the advice of agricultural teachers.
Now, can't you do something for them,
by telling them how they may rise to
the level of the standard set before them?
The writer who gave his experience with
his 'persimmon> lot was eminently sound !;
but let him tell hundreds of Western
farmers, who own scores of acres of just
such land sas- his rpersimmon ,lot.'l either
how to under-drains d them without the
needed fifty dollars per acre, or else where
they ansy 'obtsin stdessmoneys is just
here that the poor farmer suffers. His
clay-land is too wet to plough early in the
spring. and if he waits until it is dry e
nough, some portions Of it become so hard
that his light team cannot plough it;
and so he cannot get his crops in season,
and what he does plant yields very in
adequate return for the labor bestowed
upon them. Again, this same man is told
that he should purchase thorough-brec
bull. to improve his dairy. He asks the
price, and is told be can obtain one with

The Farmers Workshop.

No reasonable farmer will dispute the
importance Of having workshop upon his
premises. and especially those who have
boys to bring up. Boys will be busy, and
if opportunity is not given for q full en-
ployment of their time, either with work
or sport at home. they will seek. diversion
abroad, which will not usually result pro-
fitably. A farmer gives his experience
and opinion upon the matter in the sub
Joined sensible talk:
How many farmers do we find that have
not the ingenuity to repair rake, or other
small farm implement. Were they bro't
up on farm? Yes. Well, then. why
is it? Some may say they are Of that uu-
fortunate class of mortals that are not gift
ed with their share of ingenuity. This is
a great mistake. If you will take the
trouble toinquire of them what they spent
their time at when young, they will tell
you farming. Was their father farmer?
Yes, the best in the neighborhood, they
may say. Well what did he employ him
self and boys at rainy days? 20 nothing;
when it rained too hard to work, we gen.
orally spent our time at the village, in the
stores and tavern. You know that boys
want rest sometimes" Very true. but is
there no other enjoyment for boys than at
the tavern and stores? Had the father
had workshop. with selected lot Of
tools. would not those boys had some job
for a rainy day. such as a little cart,
sleigh, wagon or boat to make or repair ?
There are very few boys who do not have
such things to make. Thus by having a
small workshop. boys soon acquire taste
to handle tools and tinker up many little
Iplaythings of their own.
When older, the knowledge gained will
be Of great service to them in making and
repairing implements on the farm. But
there are habits which they acquire in
spending their leisure time at the village,
which is the ruin Of many promising boy,
for where do we find village now, in
which there is not one or two taverns,
where the temptation appears to be strong,
Judging from the number we generally
find in them getting spirituous liquors to
drink? s.A
When all farmers learn to make their
homes attractive for their boys and them
selves !? Afew good books. one or more
good agricultural papers, and last, but not

"The loved and lost p why do we call then

Because we miss them on our onward road
Gods unseen angel DER our pathway crost,
Look on us all and loving them the most,
Straightway relieved them from lifes weary

They are not lost; they are within the door
That shuts out loss and every hurtful thing
With angels bright, and loved ones gone be

In their Redeemer's presence evermore,
And God himself their Lord, Judge, ant
King. 4; aa-e.p -- :.
And this we call a loss. A selfish sorrow
Of selfish hearts o we of little faith
Let us look round, some argument to borrow
Why we in patience should await the morrow
That surely must succeed this night of death
Aye, look upon this dreary,, desert path,
The thorns and thistles wheresoe' er we turn

Ask the poor sailor, when the wreck is DONE
Who, with his treasure, strove the shore te

While with the raging waves he battled on,
Was it not joy, where every joy seemed gone,
To see his loved ones landed on the beach.
A poor wayfarer, leading by the hand
A little child, had halted by the well
To wash from off her feet the clinging sand,
And tell the tired boy of that bright land

Female pietY.

The gem Of oil Others which enciroles,
the coronet Of q lady's character Is unafesi
fected piety. Nature may lavish much
upon her person--the enchantment Of tho
countenance, the. gracefulneseo Of her mepe
or the strength of her intellect. yet her.
loveliness is uncrowned until piety throws
around the whole the sweetness and pow
er Of her charms she then becomes tun-
earthly in her temper; her desires and ss-f
sociations. The spell which bound her
affection to things below is broken, and
she mounts on the silent wings Of her
fancy and hope to the habitation of God. 4
where it will be her delight to bold COM
munion with the spirits that have been,
rsnsomed from the thrsldom Of earth, and
wreathed with garland Of glory. -
Her beauty may throw a magical charm
over many princes. and couqaerors may
bow with admiration at that shrine Of her
riches--the sons of science snd poetry
may embalm her memory in history and
song-yet Piety must be her ornament,
her pearl. Her name must be written ia
the ''Book Of Life" that when mountsius
fade away, and every memento of earthly
greatness is lost in the general wreck Of
nature, it may remain and swell the list
of that mighty throng which have been
clothed with tho mantle of righteous
ness, and their voices attuned to the MEL
ody Of Heaven. With such treasure
every lofty igrati6cation on earth may be
purchaseds friendship will be- doubly
sweet; life will be 'butfa pleasant visit. to
earth, and death the entrance upon joy
full and perpetual home. And when the
notes of the last trump shall be- heard,
and sleeping millions awake to Judgment,
its possessor shall be presented before the
throne. faultless, with exceeding joy, and
shall wear away crown Of life.
Such is piety Like q tender flower.
planted in the fertile nature OF womsn's
heart, it grows, expanding its folisge and
imparting its fragrance to all around, till
transplanted it is set to bloom in the. par
adise of God.
Follow the start will light you thro'
every labyrinth in the wilderness Of lie,
gild the gloom that will gather around
you in the dying hour, and bring yon
safely over the tempestuous Jordan Of
death into the promised and settled rest.
