"Then followed some conversation be-
tween him and tile driver with regard
to the OWNER of the property. Once he
was offered eight thousaiid dollars for It.;
now it would not bring half the-money.
The fences were all broken down, the
boards of the barn were swinging IN the
wind, the old plows and wagons stood
about uns heller ed n the neglected barn-
yard, and the house just opposite was in
keeping with all the rest .iia.-.. ..s
"rhe old mans sons mostly hang
around the old place; but don't seem TO

are a lazy lot. All three of 'em are al

Applying Manure.

Here is what 4ii oid I.-fmer of New

see, as | 10 an zsoiag over the country,
nov many OF our farmers are holding
"a 10 the old mode OF applying manure

the outskirts it will be so poor that Il
wiii need drum and fife 10 get il 60
serher. l almost universally find that
where this mode is practiced the pro-
prietor takes no agricultural paper
My rule for applying manure IS SIM
ply this. After the field has been piow-
ed and dragged down, the manure is
loaded on wagons and taken direct to
the field and spread on the land right
from the wagons. In plowiDg, each
land is laid OFT about twenty-oHe feet
wide. BY driving the load in the mid
die of the land, it can easily be spreal
from furrow to furrow, and the men
being on the wagon can at once see
when they get il all even. With new
hand always gosout myself with one
load, and see that he starts right; after
which there is generally 10 further trou
Bile.

whole field, we put on the gan -plow.-

In pulmonary consumption, and i'll
cases that are mistaken as such, moth
ing brings the patients so quickly and
so surely to theg egrave, asliquor; besides,
by its fat accumulation it excludes
minerals from the blood, which are
really the only hope of. cure, and makes
the death of such a patient very painful,
and eof great struggle; whereas had
he been properly treated, he might
have recovered; or his death would
have been without pain or struggle, like

especial circumstances excepted, is, at
