ell If TO God.

If you have any burden of heart or mind,
of sin, sorrow or solicitude, tell it to God
He is all powerful, and he is very pitt
full, and you may be sure of his sympathy;
sure that he both can and will do and
bring about what is, on the whole, best in
your case; sure that your going to him in
confidential and earnest prayer viii put
your own soul-with the gracious help of
his brooding Spirit-into such a condition
of patient waiting upon, and soul union to
him, that whatever he thinks is best for
you, will seem to you to be best for you
And that will lift your burden and make
it light. Tell it then to God
Is it a burden of sir? 1t is heavier in
his sight than in yours; more loathsome to
him than it can be to you; but he foresaw
and provided for it from the beginning it
was in his mind when he so loved the world
that he gave his only begotten Son that
whosoever believeth in him should not
4 perish, but have everlasting life; it was in
Christ's mind when he was exceeding sor-
rowful, even unto DEATH for human guilt !;
it is included under all the precious prom
Uses of the gospel, and, if you will, he can
make you clean. whatsoever willard he
says it with your case in thought-let him
take of the water Of life freely. Tell it to
God.
Is If 4 burden of sorrow? He is rich in
mercy. His compositions fail not; you may
depend upon his entering, with the most
delicate and gentle, and the fullest sympa-
thy, into every particular Of your distress,
and putting underneath you his everlast-
ing arms, to hold you up that you may be
safe Tell it to God.
Is it burden of solicitude? Is your eye
sight very short as you strain your gaze
out into the misty future? Is it so that the
very dearest treasures Of your heart are i'm
perilled, and you are overwhelmed with
the thought that all which you can do tc
defend or rescue them, is less than nothing
and vanity. No matter. He sees all
knows all, can do all will do all that i:
best; do you want anything else to be
dOne?) Trust him with your treasures
He careth for you. Tell it to God.-Co

Wasting the Lords Time.

All time is the Lords. Some, however,
we especially consecrate to his service
Such, prominently, is that given to and
by the Sabbath school teacher for the in
struction of his or her class. This is in
deed the Lords hour. Is it always regard
ed as such?
Perhaps have been unfortunate in my
field of observation, but certain it is that
about half the teachers in at least half the
schools have ever visited, have spent the
hour or even half hour, in this manner
After the preliminary exercises, question
books were opened. Question number 1
was asked of scholar number l. Question
was put to the next, with therequest that
the reference be looked out and read. Pro-
found pause during the search. Paul is
apparently among the prophets" while
the epistle of Job is (almOst) discovered.

Farmers Clubs.

The value of Farmers club in any To-
cality is very great. 1t is easy to get one
up, and now that the leisure time of win
ter is coming, those farmers who take a
real interest in the advancement of their
professions should lose no time in getting
up clubs. A few intelligent. stirring
men in each township, ward, or communi-
ty of settlers can easily start and keep go
ing a good club. When the thing is under
taken, let active men take hold, and once
started, keep up the life of the matter by
intelligent and useful discussions on anv

A Guess.

II have had no falling out with the Lord
and guess all will be we'll" was the Ian
guage Of dying man in the late summer
time, who had lived many years between
two sanctuaries, whose bells calling to pub
lie worship, had been unregarded. Hehad
lived towards his fellow men a moral life,
but had no family altar, no bible read by
him. And when the servant of God stood
by his bedside, pointing him to eternity
and his Saviour King, the only response
was, II have had no falling out with the
Lord, and I guess all will be right
What awful insensibility had stolen
gradually upon his heart \ life of utter
forgetfulness of God and contempt of his
claims and ordinances closed with a guess
that all would be well--that Jehovah vol d
be as Indifferent to his love and atonement
and means of grace bought with the blood
of Calvary.
How binding is sin Impenitence grad
ually but surely hardens the heart and
darkens the soul of man. Unpardoned
transgression is like some poisons, the pre-
cursor of whose fatal finished work is in
sensibility and loss Of sight
No unsaved sinner can tell when this
moral malady he cherishes Will reach thai
rock like hardness and night of the sou
which death will not soften or iilume, ex
cepting with the flashes of a near retribu
tinn Il esaenner.

Christian Earnestness.

John Knox, who prayed, Lord, give me
Scotland, or | diep' has been dead almost
two hundred years; yet all Scotland feels
his power still. Such earnestness is not
soon forgotten.
George Muller began his work. teaching
an orphan child, thirty five years ago. He
now has church of nine hundred men,
bers, forty of whom go out every Sabbath
afternoon and preach to ten thousand peo-
pie around Bristol. He also established
missions abroad. When he needs money
he asks God, and it comes.
A gentleman in Dublin, who is no talk
er, but has great wealth, keeps eight print
ing presses going, printing tracts, many of
which he writes himself in seven different
languages, and thus he imparts gospel
truth to multitudes.
A butcher in London, and christian
only seven years, began telling Others what
God had done for him. and the result was
their salvation. He now has chapel that
holds fifteen hundred, and has SIX hundred
members. He has large business, but
he breaches five nights in a week in the
street, in halls, and other places in the
city.
A Mr.. Carter, who labors among London
thieves, burglars, and pickpockets, has
gathered church of one thousand eight
hundred members. His wife instructs one
thousand six hundred mothers, meeting
four hundred at time, who, without hel
labor, would receive no religious instruc.
ton at all.
These instances show what men may dc
when fully consecrated to the work of say
ing souls. Were all professors thus earnest
how glorious would be the result

stable or yard manure was ofbut little use
comparatively had used leached ashes on
wheat at the rate of ten loads per acre.
He considered spring ploughing best, and
cited an instance of piece ploughed part
ly in fall and finished in spring, the latter
producing the best crop. Mr.. Clark spoke
of the soil being exhausted of its nitre and
alkali by the heat of the sun, and said that
a dense shade would fertilize by replenish-
ing the soil with nitre.
III. Mcclellan said that it had been ar
gued that pumpkins did not exhaust the
soil, and now we were told that shade
would enrich it, and loosely remarked
that he could tell the farmers how to make
their lands rich-they could plant thickly
with pumpkins. On being asked how he
would make them grow on poor land, re-
piled that he had overlooked that; but l..
Mcclellan came to the rescue and said he
could tell them how to start the pumpkins
as it had been recently announced here
that repeated plowings in cloudy weather
would enrich land without manure.
c. A. Clark spoke of the value of ashes
as manure, and would mix ashes with
fetted manure to destroy the odor.
?. S. Clark disagreed with Mr.. Clark,
and thinks the ammonia in the manure
will be set free by the ashes and escape.

merly, but has more recently used plaster,
and with better satisfaction uses salt and
brine with horse manure. He remarked
that muck was not usually dry enough
when used as an absorbent. Had usually
raised 90 bushels of oats per acre. He
used last season on one-half acre of land a
mixture of 10 bushels ashes, 200 pounds
| plaster and one-half cask lime sowed one
acre with wheat, raising 26 bushels, and
the remaining portion with oats and raised
| ~ bushels.
G. A. Clark cited the use of plaster with
profit on the clay land of Canada and its
useless application on various crops on his
own farm.
P. 5. Weber had similar experience
with plaster.
F. Mcclellan spoke of blowing in green
crops and referred to tennessee Co., n. Y,
where land had been long plowed, twice
in each season and raising but one crop in
two years.
E. Cook referred to an instance where a
farmer keeping team for Its work, in or
der to make it earn its keeping, had plow-
ed piece so much that nothing would
grow upon it.
c. A. Clark agreed with Mr. Cook that
too much blowing would exhaust rather
than fertilize by causing the nitre to escape
Mr. Cook said he was mixing ashes, sal
and plaster with his stable manure.
Mr. Baker said it would answer to nil
plaster and ashes with manure but no
ashes alone.

WintarinQ Bees.

TvtuhVsihS SSSo'
1t is settled beyond doubt in my own
mind by theexperience of others, and by
my own for several years in the apiary,
that bees to winter well must have sufi-
cient ventilation to carry off the Excess
sive moisture which accumulates in well
stocked hives. This moisture arises partly
from the exhalations from the bodies of
the bees, but mostly, l think, from the sur
rounding atmosphere, which constantly
holds in suspense a greater or less amount
of moisture, according as its temperature
is higher or lower. The warm atmosphere
of the hive il capable ofholding consid-
cradle quantity until it is condensed by
coming in contact with the cold walls of
the hive at 9me distance from the cluster
of bees. There it condenses, first into mi
mute drops o. moisture, and afterwards, if
the cold incieases, into frost. The con-
slant accumulation of the quantity by re-
peated thaving and freezing, in hive that
has no efficient means of ventilation, grad
ually encrsaches on the space occupied by
the bees, finally reaching those ON the out
side of the luster. These grow benumbed,
cease to eat loose their vitality, grow cold,
the frost foms on their bodies, and they
die where tley stand. The frost continues
to penetrate the cluster if the cold weather
is prolonges, until finally the last bee dies
covered witt frost. This is the case when
wintered on their summer stand; but when
wintered il place where it does not freeze
and is little damp their condition is al
| most q bad, for the comb becomes mouldy
and tie honey sour and thin, and the bee
breaf mouldy and unfit for use; and should
your bees live to get out they have long
lob 70 repair damages. The mould must
be cleaned from the comb and waxed over,
and the bee-bread dug out and carried out
ofthe hive and the comb replaced with
new, and the honey is not fit for use. And
DOW to prevent this, carry to a warm and
cry place, and if a movable comb hive re-
move the honey board and spread one or
two thicknesses of old carpet or an old
coat, or anything else that will prevent toe
free circulation of air, and allow the moist
ure to pass off, but if "a common hive in
vert the live and cover as directed above.
The room in which they are housed should
