The Sands of Dee.
BY REV. CHARLES KINGSLEY.

BY REV. CHARLES KINGSLEY
20, Mary, so call the cattle home,
And call the cattle home,
And call the cattle home
Across the sands of Dee"
The western wind was wild and dark with foam
And all alone went she.
The western tide crept up along the sand
And Ger and DER the sand,
And round and round the sand,
As far as eye could see
The rolling mist came down and hid the land
And never home came she.
Oh is it weed, or fish, or floating hair
tress of golden hair,
A drowned rlaidens hair,
Above the nets at sea I?
Was ever salmon yet that shone SO fair
Among the stakes at Dee?
They rowed her i'll across the rolling foam,
The cruel crawling foam,
The cruel hungry foam.
To her grave beside the seq
But still the boatmen hear her call the cattle
home
Across the sands of Dee.

Cultivation of White Benna.

There Is no reason why the culture of
field beans, ii carefully harvested and
cared for after harvesting, should not
be profitable. The great trouble is
that, during the time of curing, the
beans are apt TO become discolored.

drill the seed of the white navy variety

the rate of from one to one and one
half bushels per acre, and keep the crop
free from weeds. Do not gather the
crop until about dry. Pull only when
the dew Is off, and IN drying weather
place the handfuls in regular rows on
the tops, the roots placed close togeth-
er. Ii you are SO unfortunate as to get
the crop wet after being pulled, the
lunches must be turned until dry. If
not, place them loosely on scaffolds as
soon as sufficiently dry, or else thresh

product on a floor. turning from time
no time until thoroughly dry and hard.
We should not advise the cultivation of
beans, however, in central Illinois. for
the reason that the labor expended on
corn will pay better but on light, sandy
soils, which produce the best quality of
beans, and where labor is plenty and
cheap, we repeat there is no reason why
the crop should not be amply remuner-
atlye.

To Clean n Rusty pl0y.

Take a quart of water and pour slowly
into it pint of sulphuric acid. The
mixture will become quite warm from
chemical action, and this is the reason
why the acid should be poured slowly
into the water rather than the water in
to the acid, and let it remain on the
iron until it evaporates. Then wash it
again. The object is to give the acid
time to dissolve the rust. Then wash
with water and you will see where the
worst spots are. Apply some more acid
and rub on those spots with brick.
The acid and the securing will remove
most of the rust Then wash the mold
board thoroughly with water to remove
all the acid, and rup it dry Brush it
over with petroleum or other oil and let
it be till spring.

rINnnuIii Rock Fowls

This breed of fowls is comparatively
new in the West, but in nv opinion is
destined to eventually be the most pop

stalks, while they are growing, may be
utilized as bean-poles where they are
scarce and difficult to be obtained, and
dry, may. be used as roofing, or set up

improvements In Telegranhy.

A Washington correspondent of the
Journal of Commerce gives an account
of a wonderful telegraph instrument
now undergoing experimental trial in
the office of the Signal Bureau. Mr..
Merritt Gally is the inventor, and has
taken out several patents in Europe
and IN this country for his new system.
The apparatus used has not been de-
scrlbed except as scientifically ar
ranged system of instrument circuits
and switches" The object of the in
vention is to enable a number of in
struments to be operated simulta-
neously on a single wire in either or
both directions, and at different stations
along the line without conflict, each
instrument to do as much work as the
Morse or other instruments in common
use. The instruments are adapted to
any kind of receiver, either sounder or
dial, or chemical recorder, and each
transmitter is adapted to the receiver
'The operators transmitting messages
may be all at one end, or divided be-
tween the extremes of the line, or at
intermediate stations, sending different
distances and in different directions,
the number of operators employed to
be limited only by the capacity of re-
corders for receiving their messages,
and any instrument can be brought
into requisition at any part of the line
when the number employed does not
equal the limit of recording" These
are remarkable claims, and if The in
struments stand the tests to which
they will be subjected at Washington,
a revolution will be made in tele-
graphy but, until the tests have been
made, the apparent extravaganza Ct the
claims will be received with reserve by
