The amateur or the retired merchant who,
for the first, time finds himself in the posses
sion of a garden, presents an amusing cmbod
iment Of impotence. These enthusiasts can
not see why plant should not flower all
summer: they expect the pear tree they put
out this summer to be loaded with fruit next
fall, and the Strawberries they set in April to
yield crop in June. The itinerant and r-
regular dealers find their readiest customers
among this class, who are ready to believe
any impossible story about plants, if it accords
with their wishes As far AS strawberries are
concerned. we would say to these impatient
people, that the only way they can get sat
isfnctory crop OF Strawberries next spring
assuming, OF course, that they have to plant
their beds-is to begin now. Layers, rooted
in pots, may be planted, even the hot days Of
July and August; the plants will grow right
on, and become sufficiently large to give
good crop next spring. Plants rooted in pots
are not generally FOR sale by nurserymen, but
there will be no difficulty in getting them
done to order. Small pots, those known in
the trade as verbena pots, are filed with good
compost, and sunk in the soil of the bed
The runner is placed upon the soil Of the pot,
and clod of earth, or a small stone. is plac-
ed upon 1t to keep the wind from disturbing
it until it has rooted. The plants should not
remain SO long in the pot as to become at all
rootbound, but as soon as they are well root
ed they should be turned out and planted in
the new bed. The plant should be set in
freshly stirred SOIL and if the operation is
properly managed, it will show no signs of
having been Observation-Disclosures Asri.ut-
turalia.

BRINGING IN CLovER.-White clover will
not come into any soil, by any process what
ever where the seed is not already sown. On
most old most meadows and pastures, the
seeding has been going on for many genera
tions and it is So abundant, that when the
land Is laid down to grass, no white clover is
sown with the timothy and rel top. 1t takes
care of itself. and is seen in the hay or after
math for several seasons, and then disappears.
/. is highly esteemed for hay, and makes the
best of dairy feed. This very desirable feed
may be secured in many old pastures, by SOW
ing plaster at the rate of nushcl or two to
the acre. The action perhaps, has never
been satisfactorily explained but it does act,
and the dormant seeds sprout, and the field is
thickly strewn with clover blossoms the next
season. In many district. the pastures have
been completely renovated and are kept in
high condition, by this cheap fertilizer
Feeding with sheep on some farms greatly In
creases the growth of white clover Spread
ing stable manure, compost and ashes, secures
the same result Burning over old pastures,
especially if infested with brers and brush.
heaps, helps the growth of clover and grasses.
Sometimes scaritying an old moss-bound sod
with harrow has an excellent effect, and
gives new start to the grass Almost any
pasture will improve by close feeding, if the
animals are suffered TO remain upon it at
night.

To CURE THE Hollow HoRN.-Take a
good egg, make small hole in the small end
and pour out all the white. but leave the
yolk; add two teaspoonfuls of saltpcter to
one Of black pepper, till the egg is full, beat
it well. Catch the animal affected and open
its mouth; throw down the egg; hold its
mouth until swallowed. have never known
this remedy to fail. consider it much bet
ter than bleeding or doctoring the ear-Wm.

To KEEP MANURE FROM HEATING.-J.
B., of East Canton. wrote to the Farmers
Club to say that his manure heaps burn up
to white like ashes. Mr. Ely says this sub
ject was only recently under discussion, and
that it was recommended to mix peat or
rich soil with the manure. Mr. Whitney
advised arranging the manure-heap SO that
the solids and liquids would mix, since the
only sure remedy for heating was keeping
the mass tolerably moist. Mr.. Sylvester
said it was good plan to keep a pile OF
muck near the stables, and to spread it daily
in small quantities over the manure as it
was drawn out. This process prevented
frefanging.

THE HUsBANDMAN.

'sHate not husbandry, which God hath
ordained. The Son Of Srach.
When the Creators hand had placed
In this terrestrial scene,
Man, in His own high image formed,
Majestic and serene,
Bade He, this ruler of the globe
To mountain summit soar?
Or for the wealth of gold and gems
Its secret mines explore
Or blow the rocks to atoms?
Or boil the floods TO steam?
Or with harpoon and hook tTanshx
The people of the stream
Or bring with forge and hammer
Enormous shapes to llghtf
Or study till the midnight toll
Enwrapped the brain in night?
No. twas the Arbiter's command,
Mid that delightful glade,
To dress and keep the garden, where
His Eden home was made;
And when no more his alien head
In Paradise might rest,
To till the earth from whence he came
Was still his Sire's behest.
So, look not with an eye of scorn
Upon the farmer state,
Ye young and thoughtless sons of ease,
With luxury elate,
For beings of purer sphere
A different balance hold,
And Cincinnatus' plow prefer
TO Nero's house of Gold.
Earth, whom he clothes with corn and fruit
Accounte;h him her friend,
And yields him fragrance when he makes
Her clover harvest bend:
And healthful vigor as he roams
Among his thriving herds,
Touching that key tone in his heart
Which wakes the song OF birds.
She folds him in her arms at last,
Like mother sad and kind, 8
And bids the daisy not forget
The curtaining turf to bind
That wraps his bed in cool embrace,
Who, peaceful and unstained,
Filled with fidelity the lot
That Natures God ordained.
