PL0w wORN our sPOTs,

As the season approaches for regular
blowing, we wish to press upon our friends
in the country the necessity and policy of
blowing all CALLED or worn spots deeply and
seeding the same In clover. To restore
such spots to fertility, we know Of no way
in which it may be so easily done as by
getting them well set in clover. After the
land is broke in spring, SOW the clover seed,
\ and as soon as the seed begin to germinate,
sprinkle barrel of gypsum or sulphate of
lime TO the acre. A luxuriant growth VIII
be superinduced, the barrenness Of the soil
will be replaced by fruitfulness and the
waste places be clothed in living green.
There is nothing of so much interest to
the patriot as the taking care of the soil. If
this is done there can be no poverty, no
scarcity, and consequently no restitution
and but little crime. Cheap food is the re-
suit of fertile spill, and happiness and con-
ten ment come more often from cheap food
than from any other cause. 1t is folly to
boa, tofthe greatness and glory of nation,
II its lands a-e Incapable Of yielding a
bouatiful supply of food for the sustenance
offs people,and this cannot be done unless
the soils are prevented from deteriorating
by good tillage. One who takes care Of the
soil Of a cour.ry is a benefactor 10 his race
and makes tangible all the blessings of life.

THE YEIL0WsTnNE.

The second expedition to the Yellow
stone recently returned from that region
with stories even more marvellous than
those brought by the Langford party of
1870. 1t has been said, in the West, that
every man who goes up there loses his rep
utation for veracity. But we suppose the
most incredulous will be compelled to be-
ieve the account of Prof Hayden, who had
charge Of the government expedition OF
1871; and it is proved by scientific measure
ments, made by him, that Langford had
with the bug-bears of unbelief, and lost
character before his eyes-in many cases,
greatly underestimate the heights, and
depths, and distances. We believe we do
not err in stating that the calm judgment
of science accords with the enthusiastic de-
claration Of the first explorers, "ihat there
is not on the globe another region where,
within the same limits, Nature has crowded
so much of grandeur and majesty with so
much of novelty and wonder"
One of the most striking peculiarities of
the scenery is the wild, fantastic prodigality
of color-and this feature, with the pic
turesque formations and grand sweeps and
stretches of landscape, we shall hope to see
faithfully reproduced upon the ample can
vases which T. Moran, who accompanied
the expedition, intends to devote to these
unique, magnificent, and congenial subjects.

C0LORs AND DYES.

A German writer shows that a great
variety of colors and dyes can be readily OBJ
tanned from common plants found almost
everywhere, the method consisting princi-
pally in boiling them in water at a high
temperature, so as to produce strong de-
coction. Thus, for instance, the we'll
known huckleberry, or BURBERRY (Vdc-
cini,un,) when boiled down, with an add
ton of little alum and solution of cop
peras, will develop an excellent blue color.
The same treatment with a solution of nut
gals, produces a clean, dark-brown tint;
while, with alum, verdigris, and sal-ammo-
MAC, various shades of purple and red can
be obtained. The fruit of the elder [Sdnl-
bucuy niger,) so frequently used for color
ing spirituous liquors, will also produce a
blue color when treated with alum. The
privet (Ligitstra1n uldgGre), boiled in so
luton of salt, will furnishan excellent color;
while the over-ripe berries yield a scarlet
red. The seeds of the common burning
bush (EUOnynlts,) when treated with sal
ammoniac, produces beautiful purple-red;
while the juice of the currant, pressed out
and mixed with solution of alum, will
furnish a bright red color. The bark,
treated In the same way, produces brown.
Yellow can be obtained from the bark of
the apple tree, the box, the ash, the buck
thorn, the poplar, the elm, ETC., when boiled
in water and treated with alum. A lively
green is furnished by the broom-corn
(Spartiuun scopdri,un,) and acknowledgement
by the genista.-AgrtcutturoL Report,

FOR ME.

"For me-" said little Carrie, heather
child, about ten years old, with bright black
eyes, dark skin, curly brown hair, and
slight, neat form.
A little while after she began TO go to
school, the teacher noticed one day that she
looked less happy than usual.
"My DEAR" said she, "Why do you look
so sad?"
"Because am thinking"
"What are you thinking about?"
30 teacheri / do not know whether Jesus
loves me or not"
."Carrie, did Jesus ever invite little chill
dren to come to Him."
The little girl repeated the verse, "Suffer
little children to come untome," which she
had learned in school.
"Well, whom is this for?"
In an instant Carrie clapped her hands
with joy and said, at is not for you, teacher,
is it? for you are not child. No; it is for
me! for mem
From that hour Carrie knew that Jesus
loved her, and she loved him back again
with all her heart.
Now, if the heather children learn that
Jesus loves them, and believe his kind
words as soel as they hear them, ought
not We, who hear so much about the dear
Saviour, to believe and to love him too?
Every one Of us ought to say, at is for me,
for meP' and throw ourselves right into the
open arms of the loving Saviour.-The

This Is a season that tries the frame and the

ties of temperature that mark the commence
ment of the winter season are sure to find il out
There are few systems that have not a weak spot
somewhere, and the wisest thing that any man
or woman can co is to fortify it by a course Of
HOstetter's Stomach Bitters, and thus keep the
enemy at bay. In war, when city is menaced
the first thing to be done is to strengthen the
ramparts The same policy should be adopted
with the human body, when its drest foe, mala-
ria, is abroad. If the stomach Is weak, this tonic
will lend 1t vigor; If the bowels are morbidly sen
sltive, this Alternative will regulate them; If the
liver is inert, this wholesome stimulant will
rouse 1t; e there is constipation, this aperient
will cure it, If there is nervous debility this ner
vine will replace it with nervous vigor; if there
is impurity in the blood, this depurent viii neu-
tralize it; If there is a cloud on the spirits this
exhilarant will dspel it. These are facts that
have been demonstrated every day for the last
twenty years. Can as much be said for any other
medicine-or rather, can as much be provedS for
anything may be said by the INSCRIPTIONS. Do

A CHURCH GOING BELLE.


A dainty little bonnet,
The sweetest marabout,
A sea Of tawny wavelets,
Ger forehead white as snow;
A brace Of sparkling sapphires,
Two cheeks OF rosy dye,
A pair of lips Of ruby,
And a fascinating sigh.
Think'st thou she goes to worship?
81 All it's difficult to tell,
But its plain both saints and sinners
Worship that Sabbath belle.
A tightly-fittiDg bodice,
Costume all brocaded,
Short petticOat with flounces,
In endless colors braided,
Enameled shoes and buckles,
Such as the Frenchmen vend,
With lofty, taper heel-taps,
To give a Grecian bend.
-Think'st thou it's for Gods glory
She dresses out so well?
Or does she want some saint or sinner
To love the Sabbath belle?
