Harvesting Root Crops.

The one thing that makes labor in the
root field 50 unpalatable to Americans is
the constant STOPPING that it nearly al
ways involves. l obviate this almost en-
tirely in harvesting by using the hoe,
ground sharp. With this in your hands,
begin at the outside row, and as you fol.
low it down cut the top clean from each
turnip with the blade, striking right or
left as is most convenient. The impetus
given to the top will carry it about half
way to the adjoining row. Returning in
this, you strike in the same direction and
so proceed. After few minutes prac-
tice, two or three tops may be cut with
one blow, and almost anyone can atop"
as fast as he ordinarily walks. After the
field has been thus "topped," it will pre-.
sent this appearance: Two rows of tur-
nips will alternate with each row of tops.
In pulling the roots, strike the blade of
the hoe back of the turnip, and with a
quick jerk pull it toward the adjoining
row, pulled or unpulled. The blade of
the hoe cuts many of the lateral roots,
thus rendering the task of pulling com
paratively easy. After topping and pull
ing, row of turnips will alternate with
row of tops; and in hauling, the wagon
should be driven between these rows of
turnips. If the turnips are left out in the
field after pulling few days, the rains
and frosts common to the fail of the year,
with the tumbling in and out of wagon,
will leave the turnips as clean as need be.
l have myself topped and pulled by this
method 400 and 500 bushels in ten hours.

Garden and Lawn Ornamentation.

AMONG those who have given attention
to landscape gardening, some are in favor
Of not only extending the architectural
of the dwelling house to the
grounds, in the form of vases, statues,
fountains, ETC., but also of carrying its
spirit into the grounds themselves, by
architectural flower gardens, not forget
ting neutrality-suspicious. plants in close
proximity to the house. The reader
must decide for himself whether, with
the exception of sparlng, delicate and
graceful distribution of vases, etc, which
might be thought to contain enough Of
the architectural spirit, he would not pre-
fer to the merely architectural flower
gardens the green velvet lawn gracefully
interspersed with flower beds, borders,
Towering shrubs and trees mingled in the
grounds in the same spirit that the real
artist paints portions of the finest land
scapes. That the latter is applicable to
cottages of simple and unassuming struct-
ure, graced with such climbing plants as
the twining honeysuckle, sweet-scented
clenatis, the morning glory, Mexican ivy,
etc., and to all pastoral scenes in the i'm
mediate neighborhood of dwellings, few
will doubt nor will it be denied that even
the modest wild flowers will create more
lastingly tender and inspiring emotions
than all that art ever has or can accom-
plish. 1.-THE lilies of the field, they
grow, they toll not, neither do they spin,

Bascomb did. 1t was their t1rst-a wee

his bands, rubbed the sOles of his feet,
and the tears stood in her eyes as she sol
smnly remarked:
"Iknow he won't live-he's too smart"
The child recovered, and as he lay on
his back across her knees and surveyed
the ceiling she went on: .
"Such a head! Why, every one who
sees him says that he is going to be q
Beecher, Greeley or Bismarck; do you
notice that high forehead?"
l did. thought he was all forehead,
as his hair didn't commence to grow until
the back of his neck was reached, but she
assured me that l was mistaken.
"Wou}6n't I just heft him once?'
hefted him.

weight weigh so much, and she smiled
like an angel she said that she was afraid

knew did.
"Wouldn't I just look at his darling

toes?"
Yes, would.
She rolled him over on his face and un-
wound his feet, and triumphantly held
them up to my gaze contemplated the
hundreds of little wrinkles running
lengthwise and crosswise, the big toes
and the little toes, and I agreed with her
that, so far as could judge from the feet
and the toes and the wrinkles, future of
unexampled brilliancy lay before that
pug.nosed imp.

my finger down the back of his neck, and
I told her that, in my humble opinion, he
wasn't, though he had had a narrow es-
cape. If his nose had been set a little
more to one side, or his ears had appeared
in the place of his eyes, Bascomb could
have purchased weed for his hat with
out delay. No; the child would live;
there wasn't the least doubt about it, and
any man or woman who said he wouldn't
grow up to make the world thunder with
his fame would steal the wool off lost

She felt so happy that she rolled the
imp up IN his forty nine bandages, shook
him to straighten his legs and take the

him home under her arm, while my wife
made me 60 along with an umbrella, for
fear the sun would peel his little nose.

An Obituary Editor:

Two or three years ago was attached
to the Morning argus, the only paper
published in our village, and during my
engagement we employed as an assistant
editor a young man named Drinker.
When Drinker began his duties the man.
ager said to him:
See here, Drinker; among other things
I want you, whenever you see in the ex-
changes or anywhcres good biograph.
ical sketch of any prominent man, to clip
it out and put it away, SOS when he dies,
you understand, we can rush it out as an
obituary article, as it WERE"
Drinker went to work, and about two
months afterward some well-known man
died, and examined the obituary bureau
for the purpose of obtaining his history.
1t was not there; but discovered that the
insidious Drinker had stored away in that
mortuary receptacle one biographical
sketch Of John Wesley, collection of
anecdotes about Gen. Putnam, and an
essay upon 1.-THE Life and Services of
John Hancock"
commenced with Drinker upon tn e
subject.
"Mr. Drinker," said, after calling his
attention to the article about the father of
Methodism, you certainly must be aware
C16ht OOuu w CSlCy u1Cu 4Ouk YOU
came into this Office"
"N.n.no!' exclaimed Drinker, with a
look of panied surprise in his face.
"Wh-wh what! John Wesley dead! That
great and good man gone! Why, it's too
bad. I had no idea of such thing
What shock it must have been to his
family!'
"And as for Gen. Putnam, Drinker, it
is perfectly absurd for you to pretend that
you thought he was alive, you know
Come, now, that's too much"
"ls he dead, too? Well, we'll! The
fact is, I've been living down in the coun.
try for two or three years, and haven't
kept the run of things. And so old Put
nam's dead. That noble old man! Strange,
strange, how we are passing away"
And, Drinker, you certainly can't be
such an idiot as to have put away this ar
ticle about Hancock with the expectation
that he would die again. You know he
did die once Why, Drinker, he died
about 10, 900 years ago!"
"Come nowl" exclaimed Drinker, ex.
ultingly; "I've got you there. All, ha
Died 10000 years ago, did he, smarty ?
You know too much. You think every.
body's fool but yourself! Dead, is he ?
Now, what's the use of your trying to
stuff that down me, when 1 know well
enough that the Democrats talked about
running Hancock for the Presiden CIV al
the last election! Oh, pshaw! You ain't
tit to write for any paper that's got any
sense"
Then Drinker was discharged. Ididn't
enlighten him. He will probably 60 down

A PerilOus Balloon Voyage.

The Reading Pa) Eagle gives the
following account of a recent perilous
balloon trip in that vicinity:
With %, 000 cubic feet of gas and 100
pounds Of ballast our young aeronaut,
Shearer, sailed away from Pottstown
in his balloon, "The Globe" yesterday
afternoon at 4:1O o'clock. After being in
the air nearly an hour, and encountering
a fearful rain and snow storm, and after
being hurled through forests and trees,
and nearly killed by being dashed against
the limbs and boughs, he sailed nearly
forty miles and landed, after desperate
escape with his life, about two miles from
Coopersburg, near the North Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad. He was assisted and placed
on train, and returned to Reading last
night by the 10:15 train. The balloon
arrived from Allentown this morning.
A reporter this morning called on the
aeronaut to get his account of the fright
full voyage. Mr.. Shearer was stiff and
used up. The right side of his neck and
shoulders is cut and bruised. His body
is also marked in various places. He
says twas the most desperate escape he
ever experienced A half hour away from
Pottstown he was caught in storm, the
wind having increased to a gale. The
balloon was blown at a fearful speed. He
says the position at that time was the
most dangerous of his life. He threw out
his graphing hook to catch a fence,
which was torn down in the effort,
and the rail of an ordinary fence
was also torn down. On the third at.
tempt the hook caught stump and the
rope snapped. Next he was dragged over
wood and came to a field, and the bal
loon struck the ground, made rebound,
and he was again dragged over another
wood. ~Finally he managed to catch hold
of the branches of some trees, and in this
manner held the balloon until several
persons who witnessed his peril came to
his assistance. The valve was opened
and some of the gas permitted to escape.
Before Mr.. Shearer and the balloon could
be got to the ground two of the trees had
to be cut down. In his efforts to effect q
landing Mr.. Shearer lost his graphing
hook, anchor-rope and clothing, all of
which were subsequently found. He was
bruised about the neck and other por-
lions of the body. Being lightly clad, he
suffered intensely from the cold, and
when he finally got upon terra .frmo the
people who came to his rescue thought at
first that he was dead.

Pruning Evergreens.

dozen evergreens, two of kind. Some
you wish to grow in form of pinnacles
and you select the Norway spruce, be.
cause it is strong'growing variety, and
let the leader run up as it chooses, only
heading in the side limbs to thicken it up
and DO away with its shaggy appearance.
Ii you wanted an oblate dwarf, say at a
scale OF six feet wide to twelve inches
high IN the center, you would take the
weak growing balsam at foot high, cut
out It's leader, and, year after year, do like
wise. Let it rise only about two inches
IN the year and not head in the side limbs,
and you would have what you wished.
so, II you wanted an arbor-vitR dwarfed,
with round head at six feet high, or an
Austrian or other pine hemispherical at
eight feet, you would act accordingly by
cutting out the top leader at the height
you want, and the center leader to the
SIDE limbs, etc., according to judgment.
There is continued effort of the ever
greens to make height and, if top leader
OF balsam or Norway, for example, is
broken OF this year, one of the side top

The balsam can be made a pinnacle,
but the danger is that its lower limbs will

the tree, as an ornament, is ended.

A Tran for Cut-WOrms.

There is no trustworthy remedy against
cutworms except actual catching and
killing them. Any application to the soil
sufficiently strong to injure or discommode
them would certainly destroy the crop,
and all the recommendations to use SALT
carbolic acid, and other similar SUBJ
stances may be set aside as useless in
practice. We have trapped them in
various ways, beneath chips, stones, and
in holes punched in the ground with a

they are caught only after they have spent

MOST housekeepers have felt the need
of a recipe for mending knives, or rather
for fastening knives and forks to their
handles. The following mixture is rec
commended for this purpose in the Scsen-
ttfe Amaersco,,: Mix together one pound
of rosin and eight ounces Of sulphur, and
keep it either in bars or reduced to DOW
der. Mix one part of this powder with
half part of iron filings, fine sand or
brickdust, and the cavity of the handle is
to be filled with the mixture. Heat the
stem of the knife or fork and insert it
hot, and when cold it will be found tight.
