LIFE.

Did you ask me what Is life, my boy?
Life Is an apple red.
Round ADD mellow, and fair to sec;
30 you bite through the skin In boyish gleei
But your mouth you ill
With bitter pill,
For the soul Of the apple Is dead.
Dust and ashes, the old refrain,
Rings in your ears like autumn rain,
And the morning joy Is lied.
Did you ask me what Is life, my girls
iife is q gorgeous flower;
It's colors are rich, and It's form is rare,
10 you run to pluck 1t with anxious care
But the sharp thors wound,
As you grasp 1t round,
And It's petals fall in shower.
Ali much fear me, nv litile friend,
Lest yonr heart on its beauty should depend,
For It blooms but a single hour.
Did you ask me what Is life, my boyP
Life Is u chestnut bur;
Rough and prickly, and hard to hold.
but watch Il closely as the nights grow cold
And some morning bright
Twill disclose to sight
Its nuts In their nests Of fur;
A little more patience, and you shall eat
From the shells the sweet white meat,
With no ugly thorns to deter.
Did you ask me what Is life my girl?
Life Is a bulb close sealed,
You must plant it deep, and tend it with are,
Till the rain and the dew and the summer air
Their part have done.
And under the sun
Your treasure stands revealed.
But few, my girl, could ever define
The fair, white lily of fragrance fine,
So long In It's cell concealed.
But, after all, my boy and girl,
This thing which we call life
You may make blessing or make n curse,
Make good grow better or bad grow worse
For the thOrns that tear,
And the blossoms fair
Grow up in the midst of strife.
The faint hearts all 70 down in the fIay,
But the strong of purpose shall win the day,
And shall gain the prize OF life.

To PLow Down GRAss.-To do this eflec-
tually is one OF the apparent impossibilities Of
modern farming. Every farmer knows it from
experience. Notwithstanding the utmost pans
and care in blowing, the grass, especially if long,
will bristle up In boards and tufts here, there,
and everywhere, injurng alike the appearance
of the field and its capacity for growth: for this
grass, instead of being visibly present to draw
nourishment for itself and impede the growth
Of something else much more profit able, should
be buried beneath the surface to manure the
soil aud assist in the growth Of its beiters Well,
do you wish to remedy this great difficulty II
so, use the chain and ball to your plow No
matter what kind of plough you have, try
them. A apiece of ordinary trace chain will do
very well. Fasten one end Of it 10 your coul-
ter, and to the other end attach round iron
ball of from two to three pounds weight-leay-
ing the chain long enough to permit the ball to
reach back to about the middle Of your mold
boarl-and there let it drag along, OIL the out
side, of course.
This is not a new idea-in fact, it is very
old one-but, like good wine, age only improves
it. Just try it once, and we have no fear Of
your verdict. 1t may not do the work to abso'
lutte perfection, but it will perform it at least
| fifty per cent. better than you can wi,lion, it

EXPERIMENTS IN GRAFTING.-The Prairie
Farmer has published in detail the experiments
made at the illinois Industrial University, with
root-grafting the apple Some Of the results
seem to vary without assignable cause, or are
accidental or uncertain, and others are distinct
and obvious. We give the substance Of these
results: l. Crafts set on the first cut of the root
or collar were more apt to live than those on
lower cuts of the root, although the difference
was not striking. The first or lower cut OF
the scion was more apt 10 live than those taken
higher up. 8. The termil bud did not succeed
so often as other gratis, but generally made a
longer growth. 4. When cuts of the roots four
or five inches long were used, they lived often
er than two and a half inch cuts, and more than
twice as many grow as when the cuts of the
root were an inch and half long. Single ex-
periments like these need repeating several
times in different years, and under varying cir
cumstances, to be fully reliable.

THE APPLICATION OF MANUREs.-As gen.
eral rule, manure does best on heavy soils, ap-
piled as a broadcast topdressng; on light soils
it is better to pillow 1t in with shallow burrows.
There have not been a sufficient number of
accurately conducted experiments with top
dressing in Summer to determine satisfactorily
what amount of manure wonld be thus wasted
by exposure. We suspect, however, that this
great loss is commonly overestimated. Manure
spread on grass land early in Autumn, or even
in August, has not only proved of greater value
to the grass, but has had marked effect on the
following corn crop, planted on Spring-plowed
sod. We should prefer spreading to leaving in
heaps, although the latter is most common
When spread evenly every shower of rain wash
es the soluble and enriching parts into the sell,
but if in heaps, it would be more likely to lose
by fermenting; and rains would he no benefit TO
it. Without knowing anything of the nature
or condition of the soil, we should be inclined
TO recommend, as the safest course. to plow in
the manure us shallow as practicable after be-
ing thoroughly spread and broken by surface
harrow, leaving, however, portion OF the field
with the manure exposed, by way of experiment

THE ToNKERs, n. Y, WIFE MURDER
In the accounts published by the New Y ork pa
pers of the murder OF Mrs. Ellen Fitzpatrick at
ionkers, n. y, on the Doth ult., by her hus-
band Matthew Fitzpatrick, who has since been
arrested and indicted for the ollie nee, appears
the following paragraph
Mrs Fitzpatrick was mai i've of Baltimore,
and well reared. Her father was a merchant,
and in excellent circumstances. His three
daughters were all well educated. Ellen mar
ried Thomas McCune, who died ten years since,
leaving her several thousand dollars. She came
,, 10 New York and boarded with relatives for a
| time, and then opened an ice cream saloon at
| Cold Spring. There she met Fitzpatrick, a man
] none OF her rel atives liked, and below her in
every respect. She married him anu he abused
her. She removed to Yonkers alone, and he
| came afterward. She refused to live with him,
| and the result is known. 1t is believed that he
robbed the premises Of dresses, furs, iewelry,
money, etc., to the value of $4,000,
