woman can also, and in a majority of instances
do better; but for the sake Of the health, as
well as the comfort of the gentler sex, certain
things should be done by men. ], have seen

solely from oyer.exposure consequent on the
killing and curing two hogs. Had she been
compelled to oversee one hundred taken care
of, what would have been the resultf She
would have been past curing.
The placing of wells nearer houses, and the
introduction of pumps, would materially in
crease the comfort of house-keepers To be
compelled to go into the next lot for al! water,
is exceedingly inconvenient; and to have to
draw a bucket-fnll from deep we'll TO- get a
single glass is siatrocious, to say nothing of the
peculiar propensity Of the rope to break at the
most inopportune time, (say on wassh,-day,)
causing a season of fishing for the bucket, and
degree of profanity not to be thought OF
without shudder. Lift pumps, with proper
valves, will draw water from the deepest wells.
The building of cellars under portion at
least of each house, would be of service, fur
nishing capital place for keeping butter,
milk and. other supplies easily spoiled by heat,
especially wheniit can be- done, so cheaply as
in this country, 5wherei the absence of stone
renders expensive blasting unnecessary. Where
the houses are raised from the ground, the
work is half done An excavation of three or
four feet, and the banking or boarding spoken

The much discussed propriety of a single
crop culture, is not a question Of comfort, ex-
cept in SO. far as it relates to the. increase or
decrease Of the money result Of the farm but
the want of care of, and attention to, the vari-
Gus implements of the farmer, is source of
very great discomfort to the lady of the farm,
who is annoyed by the remarks on the unex-
pectedIy early decay of the wagon, which has
never known a shelter, and the unsuccessful
hunt for, the holding-back strap, which was
last used as a substitute for a hinge on the
front gate. "A man does not generally hang
his coat on the fence as a regular thing, or
leave his boots on the porch roof, but he lets
his plows and wagons, much more valuable,
take the weather as itcomcs, and exactly where
he used them last.
Anything, however small, that adds to h the
comfort of the master or mistress of the house,
adds to that of the other partner in cores
ponding degree; and as the ocean is composed
of drops of water, SO the sea of life is largely
filed with small drops Of trouble. The large
waves of disaster and misfortune come occa-
sionally, sweep over us and are gone The
small troubles are constantly about us, and
each one, as it islightened or obyiated, becomes
