UPS AND DOWNS OF FARMING.

The manufacturer can test a new ma
chine, and decide by few simple trials
whether it will answer the desired pur-
pose cheaper or better than the old one
but to ascertain how pound of beef or
pork can be made the cheapest, or how
to convert hay into rich butter and
cheese, requires some knowledge of ami
NAL physiology and chemistry, as we'll
as considerable practical skill. Some
farmers take no pains to make, save, and
compost their stall manure, so that the
little they have has lost the best part of
its fertilizing elements; then, instead of
applying this manure to small field Of
corn, they make it answer for large
field of exhausted soil, trusting to good
season to make up for the paucity of the
manuring. If the season is unfavorable
the crop fails, and the farmer grumbles
and lays the blame to the season, where
as, had he put all the manure on half
of the land he would have got a larger
crop and saved the labor and expense of
planting and tending so large a surface.
Recently read of farmer who bought
a yoke Of old and very poor oxen to fat
ten on his surplus corn; the result was
the hungry, half-starved creatures soon
consumed their weight in corn-meal, with
a very light increase of fat and flesh.
But it is only on this side the Atlantic
that farmers can afford to make such
blunders. In England, wher the farmer
has to pay from S. to SIS and $40 an
acre for his land, he must be wide awake !:
hence he buys young, thrifty cattle to
fatten on his beets, turnips. oil cake,
straw, and other forage crops, and. he
sells great many well and quickly
grown pigs, but no old slow-growing
hogs But while l criticise the manage
ment of others, let me confess my own
short comings in the premises owing to
my own ignorance and the very low state
of agricultural knowledge when l first
commenced housekeeping. As my neigh
bors took no pains to stable their cows

HOPEFUL PROSPECTS, IN JAPAN.

A young gentleman from this coun-
try, who is engaged by the japanese
government as teacher of scientific
school in one of their interior PROVING
es, presents, in private letter, some
of the hopeful aspects of affairs in that
interesting country:
81 am under no restrictions in teach
ing the gospel here. | speak freely of
it to the few who understand Eng
fish. On Sabbath morning | read the
New Testament with five of my most
Intelligent pupils, and they have also
a Chinese and japanese translation.
They are well aware that they are IL
able to be stopped or even arrested
at any moment for it. Yet they are
determined to learn what the christian
religion really is. One of them was a
Buddhist priest, who renounccd the
priesthood to become a scientific
teacher; he is really fine scholar,
and eagerly reads the bible.
My interpreter read me an extract
from japanese newspaper, published
in Mako, giving full account of Mrs.
Pruyn's arrival at Yokohoma, and of
her object in opening the school for
girls under the auspices of the Wo-
mans Union Missionary Society, adj
ding tfat they hoped it would be the
beginning of female education in Jap
an. | have received intimations from
more than one high officer, that fe-
male education in this country is an
idea so definite, that steps will soon
be taken to turn it into fact.
One of the agencies for the good OF
Japan | have faith in, and wish God
speed to, is that society AS soon as
| came here and saw the situation, l
saw that the homes must be reached,
and that the mightiest agency for good
would be woman's presence and con
secrated labor. When l met the
Daimios and the High Council, as !
often did, to discuss plans of reform
and civilization, claimed first of all
that Japan must educate her women
and | have constantly held to the idea
in frequently conversing with Japan
csc gentlemen, that all their borrowed
civilization was powerless to reach
the people until their homes and theil
wives and daughters prepared the way
for future generations of elevated man
hood and womanhood. | watch an6
pray for the success of Mrs. Pruyn's
experiment, with more than ordinary
interest. Those christian ladies have
come here to help elevate and chris
tianize the Japanese women. Ny
fondest hope is, that they and more
to come will prepare for the glorious
day when Japan shall be fully opened
to the gospel. My surest ground fol
faith in its success, is in the unio,
spirit of the society"

pabilitv, he doubtless would have
laughed with delight. Is it not so
with us? Ever striving for some
great attainment; something beyond
our reach, forgetting that the great
world is composed of only atoms, and
that we are surrounded by little du
ties which if well performed will make
our humble lives truly sublime. Then
let us no longer think if we cannot
preach or pray like neighbor A, or
talk as fuently as sister B., or do
some great thing to make the world
stare with astonishment, that we can
find nothing worthy our time and at
tention. Few of us are ever called
to perform great or wonderful deeds.
AS our lives are composed of little
minutes, so they are mostly of small
duties. Perhaps here is lesson from
little six-years-old; for he, after can
didly thinking the matter over for
just a minute, ran and quickly scrab-
bling up the kindlings, put them where
he was hidden. If we ever do as we'll !;
if we learn to perform with cheerful
ness all the little insignificant, poor
looking jobs, although we may be
longing to do something bigger and
smarter; if we learn to spend our lives
running to and fro, doing little en-
rands for the Great Master when the
sun of life is sinking behind the west
ern horizon, and we cast a retrospect
i've glance over the past, we shall then
see that each little act has become
great, and our hearts will throb with
pleasure as we see that we could not
have had a ''better looking job" to do

A BETTER LOOKING JOB.

90, mother, l love you so much,
what can l do to help you? said a
little six-years-old, while his chubby
arms were clinging around his moth
er's neck, and his soft, rosy lips were
pressing kiss after kiss upon her face
and hands. "What can you do p
well, there are some kindlings under
the stove; You can pick them up and
put them into the wood box" "Oh,
tiel | don't want to do that" "Why
not, my little pet?" 'Oh, because"
said he, raising his black eyes, twink
ling with mischief, to his mothers
face, 81 want to do II better looking
job than that"
was impressed with the remark,
for, | thought to myself, that is just
the trouble, in greater or less de-
gree, with all the rest of us. We all,
or at least the most of us, are anxious
to do something in this great, busy,
bustling machine shop in which we
live, but we most ardently desire that
1t may be good looking something.
How often do we that profess to be
valiant soldiers i'll the army of Prince
Emmanuel, bravely marching with
martial tread under His blood-stained
banner, how often do we kneel with
words OF devotion upon our lips and
say, 90, Lord, | love Thee; Thou
knowest | love Thee; teach me to
know Thy will, and what Thou
wouldst have me do" but when some
little duty is presented, if not just to
our minds, we turn away with sad
ness, while our emotions if framed in
to thought or clothed with language
would be, 90, Lord, want better
looking job" How often do we bi1
children fold our hands and SIGH over
our one poor talent, and that we can
do SO little good in the world; but
when we are called to do some little
thing, when the voice wither the heart
says, 600 speak kind word to tina,
poor old man, or give smile to that
ragged little boy playing in the street
or send loaf of bread to his destitut,
mother, we turn up our noses in dis
gust at such little things and act the
sentiment which perhaps we do mo-
express, "Anybody can do that, bu
as for me, | want better looking
job" If the little boy who wanted
the better looking job had been re
quested to fit dress, make pies, o
anything else equally beyond his ca

A writer in the Horticulturist says he
buys bones of the butcher at dollar
per hundred pounds, and considers them
the cheapest fertilizer he can obtain.
He transforms them into meal by the fol-
lowing simple and effective process: I
have large water light hogshead stand
ing outdoors, near the kitchen. In the
spring | cover the bottom about six in
ches deep with dry soil. On this I put
a layer of bones about the same depth,
and cover them entirely with unleached
ashes. On these another layer of bones,
then ashes. and so on until the hogshead
is full. | leave it then exposed to the
sun and rain all summer and winter,
until the next spring. Then, OH remov-
ing the contents Of the hogshead, find
nearly all the bones so soft that they will
crumble to powder under a very slight
pressure, and, mixed with the ashes and
the soil, they give nice little pile of
most valuable manure, ready for imme-
date use. Any of the bones not sufi-
GENTLY subdued, [ return to the hogs

And feel the cold worlds scorn

Then look upon the wine cups glow,
See ii its beauty can atone
Think if its favor you will try
When all proclaim, ''Ts drink and diei''

Hate is but feeble word;

With strong disgust is stirred,
Whenever see, or hear, or tell

A LIVELY BEAR FIGHT.


1t. appears that down in Pennsylvania
they had different sort Of the Candle
mas day, and that an old bear and her
cubs came out and staid out. The Will
Transport Gazette tells the following:
Joseph Ellmaker and his wife. have
made small clearing in Jackson town
ship, Potter county, on which they have
a log cabin, a small barn. several head
of cattle, and few pigs. About nine
o'clock on Thursday evening Mr.. Ell
maker heard great commotion among
his cattle and pigs at the barn On
rushing out to ascertain the cause, i'm
agine his surprise on finding that an old
bear and two cubs had thrown down a
calf and were preparing to drag it out
of the yard The cubs were running
around swapping their teeth and uttering
suppressed growls of delight at the pros
pect of a square meal.
Mr.. Ellmaker returned to the house
at once, and made preparations to at
tack the bear-he seized his rife, and
his wife armed herself with long han
die, double-bitted axe. Thus armed
they advanced to the attack. The bears,
made bold and ferocious by hunger, did
not seem inclined to give up their prey
Rising upon her launches the old beal
showed fight, and the cubs croucbed be-
hind her, snarling fercely. Mr.. Ell
maker raised his rife and fired at the
black monster, thinking that if she was
killed the cubs could be easily dispatch
ed or driven off. But he missed his aim
and only broke the fore-paw of the ami
NAL. With fierce growl of rage tn,
old bear rushed at his assailants, follow
ed by the cubs. They stood thei
ground for few minutes, Mr.. Ellmake
clubbing his rife. while his wife cut on
of the cubs severely in the shoulder will
the axe.
The rage of the animals became fear
full, and the danger of facing them a
once became apparent. Retreating rap
idly to the house, they barred the doc
and prepared to defend themselves. Nh
Ellmaker reloaded his rife, and frinj
through the window killed cub Tn
old bear now attempted to climb the 10
house. but owing to her broken pay
could not do so. Another shot from tn
rife wounded her severely in the head
when she set up the most hideous howl
of rage. The animals loitered aroun
until midnight. when they retired an
all became still. In the morning tn
old bear was found dead about six hun
bred yards from the house, and the Gu
lay where it fell in the early part of tn
engagement. The other had disappear

IN winter, night, although had a
stable, | also suffered my COW to lie out
in the cold. Instead of buying thrifty
young pig to put in my pen, bought
a very cheap, lean old barrow that had
run two years foraging for himself on
the streets and roads. expected his
large frame to be clear gain, and that all
he ate would 60 to flesh and fat but
like Pharaoh's lean kline, the more he
ate the worse he looked for long time,
and he ate all before him. 1t was the
first and the dearest pork ever made
but learned from very dear experience
what few farmers had learned in that
day. The practice then Was in fattening
hogs to make a pen of oak rails, with
few rails laid across one corner, and
covered with sods and straw, under
which the hogs slept Corn in the ear
was thrown to them, which they ate as
they could, and then rooted for the she'll
ings in the mud and excrements. But
such farming is now obsolete, in this re-
gion at least.-S. ". an ~ T. World.

PRAYING AND WoRKING.-I like
that saying of Martin Luther, when
he says, 81 have so much business to
do to-day that | shall not get
through it with less than three hours
prayer" Now most people would
say, 81 have SO much business to do
to-day that | have only three minutes
for prayer; | canuot afford the time"
But Luther thought that the more he
had to do the more he must pray, or
else he could not get through it. That
is blessed kind of logic; may we I'M
derstand it &c. II. STURGEON.
