What are the days but ISLANDS,
So many little islands,
And sleep the sea Of silence
That flows about them all,
There, when the moon is risen,
The peaceful waters glisten;
But yondcr plashing-listen'
II Is the souls that fall.
The little boats are skimming,
The wind-led boats are skimming,
Each in its silver trimming,
Apart from feet and shore.
Where not an oar is dripping
With just cables slipping
Glides out the phantom shipping
That wanders evermore.
Every days nm island,
A green or barren island
A lowland or highland,
That looks upon the sen.
There fruitful groves are browning;
There barren clos are frowning
And rocky channels drowning
The little boats that flee
HOW many ule tnc lsiunus,
The teeming, talking islands,
That Is the sea Of silence
The rowing vessels fndl
Their number no man knoweth;
Their way the current showeth
The tide returnless Aoweth
As each is left behind.
The sailors long to tarry--
For rest they long to tarry~.
When at some isle Of faery
They touch and 60 ashore.
With songs Of wistful pleading
They follow fate unloading,
And with the tides receding
Are drifting MS before.
But sometime, in the sailing,
The blind and endless sailing,
They pass beyond the hailing
Of land upon the lee;
The lowlands and the highlands,
And all beyond the islands,
Beyond the sen Of silence
Behold the great white sea.

HILL AND ROW SYSTEM.

We have noticed for the past few
years that when runners have been kept
off from plants until quite late in the
season. and then allowing few to grow
and take root, that the young plants
formed from such were rery strong, and
bore large crops of fruit the following
season. This can be accounted for from
the fact Of the plant having the full
strength of its root, obtained a strong,
full growth, and where few runners
were allowed to grow and root, they par
took of the strength and vigor of the pa
rent plant,
We have, therefore, satisfied ourselves
from experiments that this is one Of the
best, if not the best, methods of growing
strawberries, both for home use and mar
ket. By thus keeping the runners off
until late in the season, it gives chance
to work the rows out clean with cultiva-
tor and hoe up to the time when weeds
stop growing, or if a few do grow they
cannot ripen their seed Then, by al
lowing the runners to grow, and passing
through occasionally with the cultivator
to keep them running in the row, and the
ground stirred up, just enough plants will
form between the original or parent to
form matted, narrow row. These rows
will yield as fine fruit as those kept strict
ly in hills. while at the same time, by
hoeing out the old plants every two OF
three years, and leaving new plant be-
tween each old original plant, the bed is
as good new each year-in fact, we
believe it to be one of the best renewal
systems that can be practiced, and the
only one that will produce large fruit
every season. OF course these several
plants that are allowed to set should be
cleaned out after each crop and runners
kept of, same as before.

Some friend has sent us the Lanncas.
ter (Pa.) Express containing report Of
the discussions at meeting of the Pequa
Farmers club, on the subject of wheat
culture. From the remarks Of Mr.. John
Breckbil, we extract the following
In growing wheat we should rise equal
to the emergency and increase the crop
per acre above the minimum. In for
mer times the field for wheat was plowed
as early after harvest as convenient, ex-
posed to the mellowing effect of the heat
and the GOODNESS of the night through con-
traction and expansion, then it was treat
ed with dressing of composted lime,
alter barnyard manure was spread upon
it, then plowed again, but quite shallow.
The advice of the successful wheat grow
er to-day is: keep your manure near
the surface, and prepare shallow seed
bed" 1t is doubtful whether insects
have injured wheat as much as the up
heaval by frost. Every wheat-grower
should understand the botanical nature of
the plant each plant has n seminal or
primary, and the secondary system Of
roots, When the vegetable matter is
kept near the surface, and the seed not
sown too deeply, these two systems are
closer together, they grow and spread out
horizontally, forming complete mat Of
6brous roots in the soil, which rises and
settles down bodily when freezing and
thawing in the winter, and which may oc.
cur many times without permanent injury
When the seed is put in too deep, the
seminal roots will adhere 50 firmly that
under certain conditions of soil and fros,
they very frequently are torn asunder
In case Of good protection by snow ant
late winter, these conditions would BE-
much modified. 1t is claimed that The
snow fall is less than formerly, which be
ing true to certain extent, we SHOULD
prepare to meet the occasion. BY the
use Of trees, favorable conditions O.
moisture, snow, &C., are effected, ant
that timber belts to occupy one-fourth o
the area of every agricultural distric
would suit the purpose OF manures fo
wheat, think the best can be found il
granted barnyard manure, clover, linn
and ashes; and when ashes cannot b

Canning Fruit.

Fruits are so appetizing, nutritious
and healthy, that they are justly consider
ed quite as much q necessity as luxury
upon our tables, and no table is well set
without generous supply Of refreshing
fruit. There is little food cheaper, and
none easier prepared for the table. This
is worth the serious attention of tried
housewives and it is well to have nice
store Of canned fruits to 60 to, when one
wonders what to get, for a variety, at
any meal. There is so much fruit that
spoils every year from faulty canning,
that we offer few suggestions on the
subject. Fruit well put up will stand the
temperature without spelling, but it is
better to store it in cool place where as
little change as possible is likely to occur.
In bottling fruits cork while boiling and
cut the crok off close to the glass, and
seal perfectly. In canning, be sure to
put on the cover and seal while the fruit
is boiling hot This is the best done by
having pan Of boiling water on the stove,
in which the cans are set while sealing.
The secret of success in canning fruits
is very simple to understand. Fruit that
is expected to keep any length of time,
must be brought to thorough boiling
heat before canning. The cans should be
filed so as to exclude all air--and the
fruit should be at boiling point, when
the sealing is applied, and no air should
be allowed to enter the can afterwards
Whether bottles or tin cans are used they
should be scrupulously clean. Any cans
showing signs to rusting should be discard.
ed. Fruit put up without sugar is gener-
ally of a very superior favor. Sugar is
not necessary to the keeping of fruit,when
freshly canned, but may be used in any
quantity to suit the notions of the family.
We think that if trial was given, that
fruit canned without sugar would be gen.
orally preferred, allowing each one to use
sugar to the liking when the fruit is SER
we'd on the table. One thing we advise /:
use none but pure, white, unfermentable
sugar for canning. Fruit that is put up
whole should be brought to boil slowly,
so as to insure thorough heating all
through. All pie-fruits may be cooked
longer than table fruits, which should on.
ly be brought to complete boiling heat.
Soft fruits, such as strawberries and rasp-
berries, etc., need little or no water, par
tcularly if sugar is first dissolved with
the juices. AS little water as possible
should be used, just enough to cover the
fruit When hard fruits are canned it is
better to use the expressed juice Of the
fruit than water. There are so many
styles of preparing fruits, to suit different
tastes, that it would take much space to
enumerate them. Pears suit our taste
best when baked first in large an,with
little syrup and water. Jams, prepar-
ed with or without sugar and the juices
of fruits, may be canned when boiling hot
as easily as fruits are.

crop on his farm. Members of the club
should experiment and report. do not
expect such results, but the reports would
be interesting. An important feature in
growing wheat is sowing good and an un-
mixed variety, and kept as true as posi-
bic to the kind. All wheat for seed
should be avoided that has become de-
generated by sport, or hybridized mon
grels, but kept up to the purest and
highest standard by annual selections of
the best cultivated and clcarest defined
heads of the variety.
