FARM AND HOME.
watering Growing Flowers.

:. Edward Todd, the well-known writer,
thus sensibly expresses himself in regard
TO practice concerning which great lack
of common sense is often manifested:
Let tillers of the soil initiate nature.
The earth is never watered except in
cloudy weather. When the surface of the
earth is dry rs dust, gentle shower only
descends TO mosten the surface, thus pre-
pares il to absorb copious shower. The
rain dose not fall when the sun shines.
1t will do the plants more injury than
benefit, to water them when the sun
shines. Earth must first be rendered
damp before it will absorb water rapidly:
Many gardeners have such vague ana
indefinite notions of applying water to
growing plants, that the plants are Ire
quently watered when the roots do not
need moisture and at other times they
suffer for want of water
The great secret of success in watering
consists in furnishing Just such an amount
of artificial supply ms the plant needs,
without flooding on the one hand, or
stinting on the other. This must be judged
of by the actual condition of the plant at
the time. In some instances, I have
known cases where young trees have been
actually destroyed by injudicious watering.
Again have seen trees perish for want of
watering. In the latter instance, growth
had already commenced, and the young
leaves were rapidly pumping the water
from the soil up through the roots and
stem, and a larger ubply was needed than
could be obtained. a plant in state of
rapid Vegetation, will consume or throw
off into the air, more than ten times as
much water as a dormant plant. 1t is by
no means an uncommon error to pour wa
ter on hard and baked surface, without
it descending even single inch below, or
within half foot of the roots of the plant.
Such waterings will, of course, do more
harm than good twill afford instruction
to such superficial operators, to throw up a
little of the soil, and witness the dry, ashy
earth beneath the thin moistened crust.
Water will penetrate freely into mellow
and well cultivated surface; but the re-
moval of a few inches, to be replaced after
watering, will be advisable in most cases
where the roots lie deep in the soil.

FAcr1N REeARD no HORSE

A FACT IN REGARD TO HORSES.
is perhaps no marked exhibition of Ma
lures law of adoption of means TO ends, or
of supply to waste, than is shown in the
arrangement of the horses foot. There
terminate the various duets of commune
cation and supply, rendering it point in
the animal economy of no little impor-
lance. The extremity of the limb being
of such Il vital character, and coming in
contact with the ground, needs projections
accordingly the hoof is constructed es-
pecially, it appears, to prevent inner por-
tons of the foot in coming against the
ground, and not with regard to injury
from above on the sides of the foot; a con-
si,tent fact, since, in the state of nature,
these portions of the foot are not subject to
injury any more than is the rest of the an
imal.
The direction and arrangement of the
fibre of the hoof proves this pont, as do
practical tests also. A nail driven into
the wall of the hoof from below, on ac-
count of this arrangement of the fibre,
occasions no pain; but nail clinched on
the top or side of the hoof with a hammer
induces pain, and in some instances where
horses have been lame from no apparent
cause, ii has been simply the result of an
inner irritation, caused by pounding the
hoof. This is an important point, and
should not be overlooked by horsemen.
An arrangement by which the nails on a
horses hoof could be clinched without
using a hammer would eventually he an
advantage. Cor. ". Il. Homestead.

WHIPPING OXEN-It is cruel and gener-
ally useless act of barbarism to whip oxen,
yet many farmers are in the habit of con-
tinually keeping the whip going when
teaming their cattle. Instead of inviting
the animals TO eXertion by proper words,
the first intimation that the poor creatures
have from their master that he desires
them to start is a cut of the whip or prick
of goad. This is not only savage, but alb
solutely wicked and wholly unnecessary.
Another practice often seen is that of
pounding and thrashing the oxen because
they don't readily back a load when they
have not been taught to back an empty
cart down hill. If animals are desired to
work, they must first he taught to work !;
and when they understand what is want
ed of them they viii cheerfully comply.
But there is better way to communicate
your desires to them than through the
whip. Kindness and skilful management
are far better

admiral d. q. Fdrrdg,a:
DEAR OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES have been
made as in previous years, by many of the
citizens of this place and the adjacent
country, to commemorate with suitable
ceremonies the services, and honor the de-
ceased soldiers of the United States, who
lost their lives in defence of the National
Government and the Union of the States,
and whose bodies are inferred in the Ma
tional Cemetery in this vicinity.
In performing this sad, yet not unpleas-
ant duty, it is but natural that we should
think with kindness, admiration and graft
tude, not only of these dead heroes and
other patriot soldiers and sailors, who fell
under the same flag, but also of their COM
panions, on land or at sea, who survived
the perils of the deadly conflict, and who
yet live to see with Joy the return and es-
Enlistment of peace, which it is earnest
ly hoped will never again be broken du-
ring the tide of time,n and to share in
common with all their countrymen in the
happy fruits of their tolls and sufferings
1t is no flattery dear sir, for us to say
that we recognize in you, one of the most
faithful and eminent of the brave and il
lustrious chiefs, who led on the armed hosts
of the Republic to battle and ultimate vic
tory, and inspired them to valorous deeds
by example as well as command and that
we take pleasure III CldluliLS lOu u
tive son of Tennessee and of this county,
whose fame reflects lustre upon the spot
where he was born and the people who
dwell there. For these reasons we should
be glad of your presence at the proposed
commemoration on the Both of this month,
to welcome you on an occasion i'll which
we are sure YOU will sympathize, to the
place of your birth and the scenes of your
earlier childhood, and to extend to you our
friendly Inequalities.
1t is true, no doubt, that none of the men
whose graves it is intended shortly to deco
rate here with flowers, belonged to the
band of sailors who fought to save the Ma
TONS life. Many of them, probably, sleep
beneath the waters, where no fragrant and
blooming garlands-no presence of kind
and sympathizing fTiends-can reach them
But the purpose of our celebration includes
them equally with the men who, having
died for the Union, sleep beneath the sod
as the call of the Great Captain to awake
| and arise. shall include them both in the
morning of the resurrection, when "th'
earth and sea shall give up their dead"
We hope that you will accept the invita-
| ton, which we have been delegated by
public meeting of the citizens, to commu
nicate, and will honor the comemoratior
of the 30th inst. with your presence. If
| however, it should be out of your power t.
| do so, we are instructed to request tina
Won will take an early opportunity to visi
this city,
we are yours, truly and respectfully,
