have urged an armistice by making COM
mon representations 10 Prussia and France,
asking other Powers to join them in the
effort to bring it about. The armistice is
intended TO allow the convocation of the
French Assembly. 1t is understood that
Bismarck favors such convocation, but
insists that the armistice must involve a
practicable basis of peace. While the
Overtures Of Great Britain have not been
unfavorably received at both Tours and
Versailles, the British Government has
small hopes ofsucceSS. There is a chance,
but only a chance that the present effort
may produce u suspension of hostiIitles.'

LADDERS.

Among 1he implements needed every farm is
a good supply of ladders. A long ladder is always
necessary to reach the top of il building in ease of
re. \ shorter ladder for roofs and the walls of
buildings Is also necessary. 4 ladder five or six
feet IN height is often convenient for fruit trees
pnr can hardly be without these three ladders; but
there is one other ladder which is very cunNcnian.
ln painting buildings, and especially in gathering
fruit II consists of two ladders put together like
the ratters Of a building. These may have Il slnal
i,latorm on the top which ordinary mechanic
make, on which person stand for he
lurpo~e of gathering fruit, grating, any kind Of
work requiring such an elevation. Now let Il light
piece OF wood be attached by pin TO each side of
ahe platform 50 aS TO Keep the ladder from falling
-ldeWayS, and II is complete Such ladder Will
last great many years and be of as much real use
AS any other article on the farm as Il abor-S inc
s'0ntrivance. We believe that whoever makes such
IN implement Will he in The same situation Us the
'hah VINO, alter twenty years OF farming bought Il
grndStone, and wondered why he had never had
une before.
We may safely set it down ae a good rule that in
Ilmlng II l. good economy Ia prov ilc ourselves
with such ioot= rs Will lessen ur labor i'm the
various operations oi the farm. Who would think
nowadays OF raising tMo hundred bushels of corn
and then sheng it ont on a fire shovel as our
ago A corn shelter can he bought for a few dol
lars that will perform the labor of several men by
the old mode Of operation. and man would save
his time by working out at days Labor saving
wood till he had acquired money enough to buy
one. Ingenious farmers and mechanics are con-
~tantly ut work dcNiSing new and imprON ed
methods of carrying on our farming operations and
we always hail with pleasure every real improve
