Peas and beans, as well as buck
wheat, arc destructive to weeds, and
give 4 mellow appearance TO the soil.
In this respect they aIc profitable,
and, rs such, can often be made
available; but for several crops they
will not do. The pea is uncertain,
and is often difficult TO harvest; il is,
moreover. affected by the frost ia
some localities. MildCw, also, is an
enemy TO the pea. The three grains
are good for the purposes enumerated
and they viii do for domestic uses,
on small scale, as needed.
Some people are mis!ed by the
mellowncss of the soil after these
grains, into the belief that they arc
enriching to the ground, drawing
largely from the atmosphere. 1t IS
the mellowncss Of ground and the
freedom from weeds that deceive
these men. SO far as these qualities
-melluwness of the soil and freedom
from Weeds-are concerned, the soil
is benefited. otherwise, ii receives
the greater injury in the richness
which the grains extract. At least
the after crops prove no advantage.

REV. CHARLES D. Morn, OF 81.
Louis, sends Us the following proof
that foxes can "Pbstract" ideas as
well as chickens:
y former pastor of mine told me
the following: When d boy, lac had
a fox, who, | regret 10 say, bore the
reputation Of possessing far more
brain than personal picty. This fox
was kept in the yard in sort Of
raised den, nicely sodded over, aud
was confined by a chain that allowed
him quite 4 generous circumference,
One evening in the fall, the farm
wagon, returning from the field with
a load of corn, passed near the den,
and by chance dropped an ear where
the fox could reach it. lie was seen
to spring out, seize the corn, and
carry it quickly back into the den.
What he wanted with it was mys-
terry, as corn formed no part of the
gentlcman's diet The next morning.
however, the mystery was solved,
for tive fox was observed, out of his
den, aud considerably within the
length of his chain, milling of some
Of the corn aud scattering it about in
full view of the poultry, after which
he took the remainder back into the
den and awaited events. Sure
enough, the chickens came; and
while eating, out sprang tho fox,
nabbcd bis man, and quietly took his
breakfast in his back parlor.-IHdc-
