Never be passed on the river;
To mind the pilots bell;

A thousand times he swore,
He'd hold her nozzle agin the bank
Till tho last soul got ashore.
All boats has their day on the Missisip,
And her day come at last
The Movestar was better bont,
But the Belle she WOULDN'T be passed.
And so she come tearin' along that night
The oldest craft Gn ths line.
With niger squat on her safety valve
And her furnace crammed, rosin and pine
The fire bust out as she clared the bar.
And burnt hole in the night,
And quick as ilash she turned, and made

this protracted drought, no time
was lost. With the plantation
hands, land was cleared, rails were,
mauled, fences renewed, old houses
torn down and rebuilt; the dlapi-
dation consequent upon the war
was wiped out, and by the lst of
January, 1867, the marketable val.
ue of my plantation had increased |.
to an amount equal to the value Of
a good crop, and most Of the labor
had been performed by field hands.
In 1867, again hired hands for
wages, made a splended crop OF
everything ! planted except wheat,

for an average of eleven and a half

Are Cucumbers Prof table.

4 subscriber asks il the raising Of Gu
cumbers and sailing them for market
can be made a profitable business. We
know of many gardeners who do make
this kind of business profitable, but
we presume they have made it study,
and learned by experience how it is
done. 1t is sheer folly for any one to
expect that they can take up any spe-
cialty in gardening or farming, and be
certain at the beginning Of being success
full in the end. Gardening and farming
are trades that must be learned 10y
practice, and not theoretically. All
the books ever written on these subjects,
no matter how carefully studied, will
never make good gardener or farmer !;
and yet no man can become eminent, or
even stand second-rate, in either profess
sion, without the aid Of books
Cucumber culture is a profitable bust
ness with those who know how and are
in favorable locality.

HiyinS Bees In n Shirt.

Henry Ross was in our office few
davs ago, and while there was talking
of some OF his exploits in the way of
Jes-hnting. At one time, while out
hunting, in the spring of 1.-The year when
bees were swarming, he came across a
large swarm hanging to. bush. He
did not like the idea of losing so fine a
swarm. He was about three miles from
home. How he was to get them home
was a question in his mind. The idea
struck him of putting them in his shirt,
and he took it off, tied up the sleeves
and the collar, and shook the bees from
the bush, and started home with them.
In walking home he had to hold the
bees in the shirt, at a distance from his
body to prevent their singing him. He
succeeded in getting the bees home, and
hived them in an empty whisky barrel,
where they provided him lots of honey.

Cultivate Corn Early.

Farmers should remember, that labor
In the corn field, and with other hoed
crops. is lessened fully one-half by set
ting the cultivator to work early, and
taking advantage Of the weeds. Young
weeds are easily killed; but when they
have a fair start, and have taken root, a
great amount Of labor is required to
eradicate them.
Corn kept clean during the first
months of its growth, will. if on ground
somewhat worn, and favored by season,
make q reasonable yield; but if once
choked during that time by weeds, no
amount of after culture can restore it to
full health and vigor. Early cultiva-
ton is really the secret of corn raising;
it is as manure to this grain. The only
advantage in neglecting the corn field
in June is, by SO doing the labor at
husking time is very materially less.

Sweet Potato Culture.

A Western woman, II. B. R., Bu-
chanan, Michigan, gives the following
as the mode practiced by many Western
gardeners:
Select the suniest side OF your gar
den, and if the soil is little sandy so
much the better. Have the ground
well prepared, and made up into long
ridges, leaving space of about eigh-
teen inches between them. Set the
plants from ten to twelve inches apart.
Water them frequently, if the season is
dry. They need little boeing, but the
ground must be kept clear of weeds.
Should the ridges become washed by
rains, they must be carefully made up
again. Sweet potatoes may be planted
from the lst to the 10th OF June.
Should the vines become too luxurlant
some of them may be cut off. If the
season is favorable, they are usually full
grown bv the last OF September.
