WHAT is HIGH FARMING.-It is a system OF
tillage and farm management that is self
sustaining, system that takes nothing but
the bare land, the domestic animals, the farm
implements and machinery, and cultivateS
the soil, sustains the family and the animals,
pays the annual taxes, detrays the expenses
incident to the improvements that must be
made on the farms, cancels the annual in
terest on the money invested in the land,
eventually pays for the land, all from the
products OF the soil cultivated and after
one two or three decades Of years, leaves
every acre in far richer, better state Of
fertility than the soil was az the beginning.
This IS high farming. There are untold
numbers Of quiet, uuObtrusvc tiileTs of the
soil n many of our States, who have com
mcnced precisely as we have indicated, 5rth
Oul one dolIar Of cash capital who have had
no revenue whatever besides the natural re-
sources Of their cultivated fields, who have
by hard work and iudicious management,
sustained their families, paid for their land,
erected all their buildings, paid for all their
valuable improvements. and at the same time
bave brought their land up to that state OF
pTOductiyeness BY their judlc Gus manage
meut, that every acre now yields from two 70
three toms of hay where only one was orig
naily gathered, and they harvest nearly two
bushels, in many Instances more than two,
Of cereal grain, where the product was but
one bushcl. That is high farming. y ct such
system Of husbandry II usually sneercd at
simply because the proprietor knew how TO
save his money t. dciray the expenses of
improvements, rather than spend three times
more than he made.--N T. OtSerrcy.

\ HEy IIArcuING An EAaLE.-Nr. John
y. Fries, Of South Coventry township, Pa,
Is trying the experiments Of raising an Eagle,
Matched by a hen. The Pottstown Lefgcr
gives the following account About a
month ago, while on Nye's Hill he saw
a large bird fly UP from lonely place
among the rocks. Proceeding to the spot,
he discovered two eggs, Of nearly the size
and appearance OF turkey eggs, which he
picked up, brought home, and placed under
a setting hen. Abouta week ago the eggs
were Matched out, and Mr. Fries was as
tonished to find that they were eagles.
The old hen must have been considerably
surprised, too, for she spluttered about
and trampcd upon one OF her rare progeny
and killed it. The other one will proba-
bly, grow up and do well Eagles some
times carry off chickens and it would be
rather joke if this specimen would some
day gather up the old hen that Matched it
aud fly away with her"

No water. even that filtered by chemists
for use in the labrltory, is really pure. The
IectuoloGist says that It may be safely stat d
that ia general, all the water used for do
nestle or other purposes is derived either
from sprinSs wells, streams, or ponds, on
the ono hand, OF from clouds, on the other.
Il is true that all water comes originally
from the clouds; but, on passing through
or over the earth, it parts with certain I'M
purir!cs and takes up others. These are
chiefly ammonia, etc. Snow-water, which
~ noted for its softness, is due to the pres
ence Of ammonia washed out OF air. Hard
water is made 50 by the presence of carbon
ate of lime sulphate Of lime, and various
other saline and earthly salts. Very hard
water is bad for the digestion, though il rs
thought by some that the lime present in
drinking waters aids in the dcvelopemcnt of
the bOny skeletons Of animals. b. Ii is also
asserted that some Of the diseases incident =
the Alpine regions are caused by the use Of
snow water, which is remarkably free from
all impurity, particularly lime. ~ the
character of the water found in any given
locality is Of the utmost Importance t. those
who reside there, careful examination
of the water supply ought always 70 pre-
cedc the selection of location for
residence"

Amusements and the Church.

Amusements and the Church.
We like TO see a minister oc.
c~asionally take a common
sense view Of amusements, and
know that many of our readers
will agree with Rev. Manly,
pastor of the Walnut street M,
E. Church, Chilliothe as report.
ed in the Ross CO. Register, the
remarks being brought out in a
discussion, at a meeting of the
Sabbath School Association.
"Rev. Manly thought that the
matter Of making the school
and church attractive was too
much neglected. This involved
the whole question of amuse.
ments. We allowed the devil
TO take too many things to
which he has no right. If the
World has good singing, the
Church should have better.
There was nothing wrong in
billiards or the theater, per SO,
but as they now existed, a man
was half lost who %patronized
them. There was no reason
why good people should not
take hold of these and purify
and sanctlfy them. They would
then be helps instead Of hind,
RANGES to religion. He could
imagine no more pitiiul sight
than that of a teacher with a
blue backed catechism or some
other torture, standing over a
boy who Was eagerly longing
for ~amusements."
