Pennsylvania has set a noble exam

may hope to see a generation of boys
rescued from idleness and vice, and
after graduating from the shoemakers' j,
hatters', tailors', tanners's carpenters,
cabinetmakers', masons', machinests'
bakers and other shops and factories,
become eminent alike as representa-
tives and rulers. Every intelligent
boy learns during his apprenticeship
how many mechanics have risen not
only to great wealth, but to high pc.
stions in their municipal, State and
national governments. That knowl-
edge animates, cheers and encourages
him. In what apprentice to the cart

Sherman, of Connecticut, one of the
signers of the Declaration of indie

that Henry Wilson, vice President of
the United States, was working as a

that turpentine is good for hogs, pre-.

for that purpose, no matter how much

DR.. Sylvester, of Western New
Y York, planted an apple orchard 81
years ago, and last year sold 1000

President Welch, of the Agricul-

farmer, having earned his laurels as
such by coming up through all the
grades or the profession.
With Spring wheat, if the roots
have been raised by frost, roll so soon
as the ground is dry enough. Then
wait two or three weeks for the root
to start, then harrow thoroughly.
Mr. Kirk, of Pennsylvania, says
it pays to grind hay for stock. Ma
chimes have been made for this pur-
pose. When ground, it resembles
ground oats, and weighs 80 pounds to

The report of the Department OF
Agriculture for January, 1875, in an
article on price of farm crops, says:
The lowest average anywhere Estate
average in the price of corn in 1874
was in Iowa-43 cents.
As many bushels of beans can be
raised per acre as wheat, and the
price per bushel is more than double,
and no more cost in cultivation, care
or marketing. And yet Wisconsin
does not raise beans enough to sup
ply home demand.
Mr.. Scott of Delaware county,
Pennsylvania, raised 1876 bushels OF
