rxpsr,ments in Draining.

I have only put down one main
and few laterals, but they are work
lug beyond my highest expecta-
tions. I have used round tile, put
ting them not less than three feet
deep and thirty feet apart. The
ground has been plowed and planted
with corn since putting in the tiles,
and is in splendid working order.
Four weeks after the corn was plant
ed there was still stream of clear
cold water as large as ones finger
flowing from the outlet.
During the months Of May and
June there was almost no rain fell
here, not enough to wet the ground
more lhan an inch from the surface,
and the drains stopped running, but
the corn looks very much better on
that side of the field.
After 1 had laid about twenty
rods Of the main drain there came a
heavy rain that filed the tiles full
Of mnd, but it soon washed out
again. 1t empties into a creek that
rises rapidly with every heavy show
er. and at the time referred to the
water stood for several days at least
six inches above the outlet, but the
flow of clear water was plainly Yisl-
bic, coming with sufficient force to
be seen four or five feet in the
creek.
There is but one person besides
myself. within my acquaintance,
that has had the courage to put in
tile drains. and we are constantly
being laughed at for our folly in
burying our money in the ground.
The subject is not mentioned but
some one will say, "a fool and his
money are soon parted" or, DO
you think you will ever get your
money back?" But let those laugh
who win.
Last year lost almost my entire
corn crop because the ground was
100 Wei III buS , SlJIAAS3 ~ 0Ae'e 4" " 90
impossible to plant early enough to
escape the frost in the fall, and !
am resolved to "throw away a few
more dollars" in trying to remedy
the evil.
The ground in that part Of my
field where the tiles are laid works
much easier than the other, being
losser and less cloddy, and the corn
has a darker color, and does not
roll up in the heat Of the day.
Having made a beginning l am SO
well pleased that l shall continue as
| can find time and means, as l be-
lieve thisto be the first step toward
making our clay farms rich and pro-
ductive.

Iean't but conclude that going
into the country for the summer is,
to speak pulpit-wise, O "means OF
grace" 1t is good for those who
have always a servant at their ell
bows, to be obliged to wait till their
neighbor or vis-a-vis is served.
1t is good for the beauty to find a
prettier girl than she.
1t is good for the husband, by COM
pRrison, to ascertain, as he generally
can, that he has been signallv blest
in his choice of wife.
1t is good for the spoiled child to
have its playthings quietly appro-
priated by 3 bigger one, even though
he howl to high heaven, and his
nurse and his mother hear him not.
1t is good for the modest bachelor
if there be any such creature-to
find some intelligent woman who has
tact enough to discover and bring to
the Highland, better still, bring to
his own knowledge the fact-that
she is a very agreeable fellow"
1t is good for the opinionated to
be gently snubbed.
tits good for the narrow sectarian
to find a gracious sweetness and mag
netism IN one who holds a different
faith.
1t is good for the old maid to see
married persons whose life is not all
sunshine, that she may comfort her
self with unction while waiting for
the coming man"
It is good for anybody and every
body to leave the Comforts of a
home" that they may know how to
appreciate their own corner, their
own easy chair, their own comforta-
bic mattrass, and, lift is not too stable
"a subject, their own sweet bread, when
they get back.
Above all, it is good for "minis-
ters" to get away from the sound Of
their own particular denominational
church-bell; to take leave of their
own blessed deacons, who have no
pressing call to lay them on the grid
iron of inspection in the "dog-days."
1t Is good for them to play ball, to
swim, to loaf around. Yes, to loaf
around. To sit lazily down on the
end of piazza, forget the doctrines
and look at the landscape.
1t is good for them to laugh, and
play billiards and nine-pins, and tell
stories, and guess conundrums, and
otherwise act as if We had really got
to pass through this world on our
way to another. think Satan howls
every time a clergyman laughs.

him Occasion.-Fanny Fern.

Experimenting with Potatoes.

We planted our potatoes on sod
about the goth of May (without
msnure), in hills about three feet
apart each way. After the plants
had attained a height Of thre or four
inches, we went through the rows
with cultivstor. twice in row beth
ways, following with the hoe and
completely covering up the vines to
a depth Of three or,,four inches. We
felt somewhat skeptical about the
result of this treatment, but slxentic-
ism was soon dispelled, for in a very
few days our potato vines came nm
through this light obstruction with
. rank and vigorous look, and com
menced to grow with a rapidity un-
surpassed by anything we ever saw
before. We next treated them to a
coat of gypsum and ashes, half and
half at the rate Of about eight bush
lea per acre, hilled them in June and
then left them to take care of them
selves. No weeds or grass grew
among the crop; nothing but NAM

LEAD.

The experience of centuries has proved that
there is no paint equal in value to PURE White
Lead. and for these reasons, it COVERS MORE SUR
FACE WITH LESS QUANTITY OF OIL, AND STANDS
THE WEATHER LONGER AFTER IT IS PUT ON. Dur
ing the war the cost Of manufacturing White
Lead was more than doubled and eOnseqently the
country was flooded with cheap adulterated paint
sold as White Lead, none of it contained more
than one-half Of White Lead, and much Of it none
at all, white earth called Barytes, almost worth
less as paint, being substituted therefor. Since
the war demand has ssprung up for perfectly pure
White lead and this demand is fully answered in
the pure Pittsburgh Lead made by Davis, Cham
bers & Co., which is composed of 81 parts Carbon
ate of Lead, and parts of Linseed Oil. While
nearly every house in the United States make
different grades of aduterated lead to suit the
price of the purchaser, this firm justly proud
the fact that they make only strictly pure goods.
White Lead is unsurpassed for wHTrENEss. fine
ness and durability, and is therefore the mo't J.
sirable paint that can be used.
