THE little STOCKINGS OR,

He will sec sweet stockings, cunning and new,
Warm In scarlet and dainty in white
Stockings that never have crept in a shoe
Waiting his mornings enchanted light.
And other glad stockings that he should know.
Grown larger, perhaps, than they were last year
In many pretty, half sleepy row,
They wonder, no doubt, II he is near,
This Saint Of the children, who loves them So
Fairly hlling each colored space,
VIII touch clear dreams with his kiss-and 60
With tears, think, in his tender face.
All spite Of his furs, he will shiver, L fear,
At the thought OF some stocking, bright and small
Whose curious looks are no longer here,
Awake for him by the lonely WALL
oh you whose little hands reach no more
Toward his gray, kind beard in their dimpled play
Whose little feet pass'd through the great dim Door
With never step nor a sound away,
Have you found another, who lights with love
His birthday Tree for your charmed eyesY
Do You see in its branches the snow-white Dove?
Is 1t fair with the Towering fruit of the skiesg

stances equally beneficial to vegetation as
those conteined by rain water-those
properties in the latter, before referred TO-,
being taken up in Its passage through the
air as the rain water descends to the earth.
After long periods of drought, when the
air has become highly charged with those
substances, the quantity brought down by
the first shower that falls is far greater in
amount than what Is brought down by the
next and succeeding showers. In long
continuous seasons of rain IL ceases alto
gether As II is during such seasons that a
surcharge ofwater to the soil becomes most
injurious, 1t becomes apparent that if a
large portion OF this matter can at once
be carried off from the surface, the neces-
sity of an increased area of drainage below
may be dispensed with, especially in dis
tricts where the amount of annual rainfall
is greatest. Water in a state of evapora.
tion from q surface discharges the heat
also; and, therefore, if no other means
exist whereby water can be discharged
from the soil, 1t must remain until suffi-
cient heat Is produced by the rays of the
sun or by increased temperature of the
atmosphere upon the surface to again
convert it into vapor. During this process
the heat of the soil becomes diminished,
especially at the immediate surface; and
soil OF a district of naturally higher tenn
perature is reduced to the temperature of
one OF higher latitude or elevation. This
elect has, however, been greatly exagger-
ated. 1t has been recently computed That
the heat lost in the process of evaporation
by the SUMS rays of an inch.fall of rain
would be sufficient to reduce the temper
ature of the soil, to depth of ten inches,
no less than ninety-nine degrees. The
more porous the SOIL the more rapid is
the evaporation; and consequently we
have an explanation why crops upon
gravelly subsoils become most affected in
the early spring months, and at the same
time arrive at remedy in relieving them
from surplus water by drainage,-Ne,O
