Sweet Sixteen.

Dear lady when look at one
So lovely and 80 loved Ms you,
From whose young life has not yet gonc
Tho roses blush, the mornings dew,
sigh to think Of all the years
Whose fnding memories rise between
This and the time whcu long ago,
lost my heart to Sweet Sixteen.
Prate rs they may Of visor thought,
Of cooler blood and steadier brain,
OF earnest wisdom, dearly bought
BY anxious care aud baddening pain;
In oil the years old time can bring,
In oil tho longest life has seen,
There's arc no hopes, other no loves,
AS sweet as those of Sweet Sixteen.
Ill.
And though the chnsm may wear away,
As roses fado and dews cxhale,
Though glcssiost locks may turn to gray,
And fairest checks grow wan and pale,
Yet who can doubt those dearly loved,
In minds Of mortal eye unseen
Beyond tho stars, shall all regain
The angel hues Of Sweet Sixteen.

THE GREATEST YIELD OF WHEAT
ON KEooRD.--In the August number
OF 1fhon's Journal of Horticulture
( (Boston) we find the following:
"WHAT CAREFUL CULTIvArIoN WILL
Do.--An English farmer, by picking
over his seed wheat with the utm ost
care, and planting grain in place
at intervals of foot each way, pro.
duced one hundred and sixty.two
bushels of wheat to tho acre"
Such yield, though enormous, and
perhaps never before realized, ought
not to DO regarded, az incredible. we
remember reading well-authentioat-
cd statement, boforo tho war, of one
hundred and ninety-six bushels of
corn to the acre being grown in Ken
tuoky, growth not the less marvel.
GUS than tho one given of wheat.
Not tho least wonderful part of the
account is the smallest quantity of
seed used t." produce tho result. The
number OF plants, stan ing at a foot
each way, was 1860. Supposing
every grain to have been sound when
planted, the quantity required to plant
an acre would not have exceeded
three and half pounds, there being
between twelve and thirteen thousand
grains TO tito pound. At this rate
every plant should have yielded about
2,0oO grains-say seventy stalks or
ears, averaging forty grains to the ear.
Perhaps every farmer has seen bunch.
es OF wheat, apparently coming from
single grain, standing in rich spot
and having room to spread, containing
forty or fifty stalks, and bearing large
ears.
Now wo have only to imagine an acre
OF ground occupied by suoh stalks,
having plenty Of manure to feed on,
to DO convinced that it is possible to
obtain something like the Drop repre-.
scntcd in tho above extract. But,
perhaps, our readers will say 1t is
easier to figure this out than to roach
1t by hard knocks, to which wo have
only to reply; let them try it on a
small scale, say a square in the gar
den' or even square rod.-Petetsbu,g
Inder.
