DriIIin Your Oats.

In moderately rich soil oats should
be planted with grain drill, putting
about one bushel of forty five pounds to
an acre. Flowing the ground in the
fall will enable you 10 sow oats much
earlier than spring plowing, and the
earlier oats are sown the better are the
chauces for good yield in quantity
aad quality. Ii the spring season be
very wet, ground that has been plowed
in the fall can be sown almost as early
az spring plowing begins, Late sown
oats do not have time 10 mature, and
unless the season be very favorable,
generally prove failure.
Oats that are drilled in, are improved
by stirring between the rows, the yield
being often increased twenty per cent.
First rate soil is not necessarily needed
TO raise oats, but the richest soils al
ways pay best. Seventy to one hun
dred bushels is not an extraordinary
yield for the best kinds of oats on good
soil. If the season be too wet to plOw,
/ prefer patting in oats with shovel
plOw on clay soil On sandy soil it
yields best TO drill il in with super
phosphates.-Er.

RENE D'AMOUR.

C,oso as the stars along the sky
rTba flowers we're in the mead
The nurple heart, and golden eye,
And crimson. flaming weed;
And each one sigh'd as went by,
And touched my garment green,
And babe me wear her on ny heart
And take her for my Queen
OF Love-.
And take her for my Queen.
And one in virgin white was drest,
With downcast gracious heads
And one unveiid burning breast,
Mid smiles of rosy red;
All rainbow bright, with laughter hght'
They iickered DER the green,
Each whispering should pluck her thero'
And take her as my Queen
OfLove-
And take her as my Queen.
But sudden at my feet lookd up
a little starli thing
Pure odor, I'm pure, perfect cup,
That made my bosom sing;
Twas not for size, nor gorgeous dyes,
But ksr own self, ween,
Her own sweet self, that made me stoop
And take her for my Queen
OF Love
And take her for my Queen.
Nov all day long, and every day,
Her beauty on me Crews,
And holds with stronger, sweeter sway,
Than lily or than rose
And this one star outshines by far
All in the meadow green;
And so wear her on my heart,
And take her for my Queen
OF Love
And take her for my Queen.
