Raise Early Turnips.

Farmers generally appear to think
tnat turnips can only be grown a. a
fall and winter crop, for not one ia
twenty thinks of putting ia any seed
until the both of July. AS an early
vegetable the turnip is excellent for Ia
BILE use, and also brings good price in
market. The seed may be sown as
early as that of radishes of lettuce, and
no more care necessary. The soil
should be deep, rich, and well pulver-
lied. The strap leaf varieties and the
the early fiat Ducth are the best for
spring sowing.

The following curious account of the
introduction of the umbrella amongst
the uscivilized people Papua, or New
Guinea, at Katan to the South Coast,
July 1871, occurs at p, 80 in the
"Journal of Missionary Voyage TO
New Guinea" by the Revs: A. w.
Murray and s. Macfarlane Just puo-
lished in England: " As at Saibai,
the Umbrells were objects of special
interest, so much so that we could not
resist the temptation TO leave them
with the people. One was given to
the chief, and hhe other to another
man of importance, and the demon
STATIONS that followed the small gift
were amusing indeed. One grand
difficulty, however, soon checked their
ioy, the umbrellas were opened and
could not be shut again, although we
had repeatedly opened and shut them
amid Ioars of laughter. AT length one
fortunate fellow discovered the secret,
and was rewarded by the loud acclama-
tions of the bystanders"

A Charitable World,

1t is temptation to temperate man
to become a sot, to hear what talent,
what versatility, what genius is almost
always attributed to moderately bright
man who is habitually drunk. Such a
mechanic, such poet he would be, if
he were only sober; and then he is sure
to be the most generous, magnanimous,
friendly soul, conscientiously honora-
BILE, if he were not so conscientiously
drunk. l suppose it is now notorious
that the most brilliant and promising
men have been lost to the world in this
way. 1t is sometimes almost painful to
think what a surplus of talent and ge-
MUS there would be in the world if the
habit of intoxication should suddenly
cease, and what a slim chance there
would be for the plodding people who
have always had tolerably good habits.
The fear is only mitigated by the obser-
walton that the reputation of person
for great talent sometimes ceases with
his reformation.
1t is believed by some that the mai
dens who would make the best wives
never marry, but remain free, to bless
the world with their impartial sweetness
and make it generally habitable. This
is one of the mysteries of Providence,
and New England life. 1t seems pity,
at first sight, that all those who become
poor wives have the matrimonial chance,
and they are deprived of the reputation
of those who would be good wives were
they not set apart for the high and per-
petual Office of priestesses of society.

The Aloe, or Century Plant" grows
well everywhere on our poor, sandy
soils along the Gulf coast, and cele-
brated French engineer states that
ropes made of aloes have four times the
resistance of those of hemp of
the same diameter and made by the
same process. The fibres of the aloe
contain resinous substance which
protects the ropes from the action OF
moisture even at sea, and renders the
tarring of them unnecessary. They
are lighter than hempen ropes, and
lose nothing of their strength by being
wet. When plunged into water even,
hey are shortened only two per cent.
so that they are much less stiff than
hempen ropes Our Home Journal.

PROPOSED GOVERNMENT BOILER EX-

PROPOSED GOVERNMENT BOILER En-
PERIMENTS.-Jud Bradley, of the
United States Supreme Court, has
made a valuable suggestion in his late
letter to the Secretary of the Treasury
on the subject of steam boiler explo-
sions. He points out the absolute ne
cessity of making trial of steam
boilers, of the kind generally used, to
find the laws governing explosions and
the means of preventing them, and
cites the few experiments made at
Sandy Hook as showing there is much
to be learned by this method of in
vestigation. He recommends Congress
TO appropriate 800, 600 for the purpose,
and to authorize the Government to
have a system of experiments made
under charge of beard of skillful en-
gineers.
