resolution to take effect July lst dsmlssing Fred
Hack from the position of city lamp lighter the

Hack was present, and acted rather indiscreetly
asserting that he wouldn't light another lamp
nor would he turn out the lights then burning
but he was finally prevailed upon, through little
anesse, to turn them out for that night. How have

Farming Incomes.

A farmers income, to be sure, sub
stantial and satisfactory, must be very
largely in other things than money.
An improved home, rich land, more
convenient buildings and more care
fully bred and reared stock-these
are within his reach without the out
lay Of much ready money. Home la
Dor and the capabilities of the farm
will supply them, if properly directed,
and if patiently waited for, without
the hiring or buying of outside helps.
The tendency to measure prosperity
by the amount of money that a farm
er has in outside investments, or that
he is able to spend for his pleasure,
is giving Il wrong tendency to our
whole system. Farmers cannot hope
to compete in this respect with mer-
chants and manufacturers, whose
business is much more speculative
and full of risks, and who too often
give a fictitious evidence of wealth
by spending the money which they
hope to earn, and which is not unfre-
quently lost by farmers and other
producers who have trusted them.-

Management Of Farmers Boots.

A Western farmer of many years.
experience in the proper management
Of thick boots states that before
wearing the boots give the bottoms a
good coating of coal tar and dry it
in; then oil the "uppers'' with castor
oil, about one tablespoonful to each
boot; then oil them once week
with castor oil, when one teaspoonful
will be sufficient. If the weather
should be rainy, or you are compelled
to work in water during the day,
wash your boots clean at night, hold
them by the fire until quite warm
and oil them while the leather is
quite damp, and you will have
trouble about your boots getting hard
and shrinking SO that you cannot get
them on. If the leather should be-
come red give coat of ordinary
shoe backing before oiling. The
effect of castor oil is to soften the
leather, while it fills the pores and
prevents the water from entering.
l have stood in mud and water two
or three inches deep for ten hours a
day for a week, without feeling any
dampness or having any difficulty in
getting my boots on or off. Coal tar
will render the soles of boots hard
and tough and make the leather wear
like iron.

Expectations Of Wheat.

1t is said by commercial men who
are interested spectators, that Eng
land is needing but little of our
wheat this season. Yet the Board of
Trade of New York for the months
of September and October show an
equal amount of shipments to any
previous year. The ten months end
ing Oct. 3lst, show a shipment of
35,5OO,OOO cwt. of wheat against 49,
100000 for the corresponding period
in the year before-an increase of
100000 cwt. In 1878 we furnished
~ per cent. of all the wheat purchas-
ed by Great Britain; but in 1874, up
to Oct. 3lst, we have furnished So
per cent. We have shipped really
about SIS 100000 more in value in
1874 than in the year previous. And
the increase in flour has been still
more apparent. In 1878 England
bought Of us 100000 cwt. Of flour;
in 1874 they bought 100000 cwt.
This doesn't look as if the foreign
demand for one of our principal pro-
auctions was growing less.

Seed Corn.

Most farmers saved at the suitable
time their seed corn. But is it safe
this winter? Farmers should look
to this question, and should also
know why and what care it needs
The analysis of corn shows that it
contains, when dry enough to grind,
about fifteen per cent Of water. This
is its salient point. SO large per
cent of water renders it liable to the
destruction of its vitality by freezing,
OF to fermentation by heat generated
spontaneously. The hard, glossy
covering of grain of corn consti-
tutes good protection to the grain
while it is on the cob, so it is safe to
conclude that this is the best way to
keep corn. The damp breath and
noxious gases arising from COW or
horse stables is exceedingly injuri-
GUS to the vitality of corn, and it
should never be put over stables oc-
cupied by any kind of animals. The
great secret in the preservation of
seed corn is in having it dry on the
approach of cold weather and keep
it dry with q plenty of free air. In
a granary where the wheat, rye or
oats go through a sweat or any damp
ness arising from the bins, is almost
fatal to seed corn. A corn-crib,
where it can have plenty of room,
fire circulation of air and protected
from any damp, is a good place for
it. In the garrett of dwelling
house with a tight roof protecting
from rain or drifting SHOWS, with u
dry and warm current of air passing
up through the building, is the best
place the common farmer can use
But see that snow does not sift
through upon it, thaw, and then
freeze. Serious failures in crops
sometimes occur from bad seed plant
ed too late for a second planting
Distress and ruin will come upon q
man for slight neglects in the care Of
seed.
Some may not have furnished
themselves seed Now is the time
to provide against such neglect.
There is time now, and it may be
more easily obtained than in the hur-
ry of planting crops. Look also at
the kind of seed. In nearly all COM
munities there are varieties of corn
that differ in yield from ten to tif
teen bushels per acre, and yet equal
ly as early. The corn that has been
grown on the same place until it pro-
duces nothing but nubbins, had bet
ter be fed to hogs and 4 better arti-
Gle purchased, even if it has to be
sought at some distance.-State Reg

Manure for Wheat.

The Delauare State Journal says:
Wherever organic matter abounds in
the soil free use of bone and potash
will speedily restore it to its original
fertility. In sandy soils organic mat
ter in the form of peat, muck, or Leaf
mold should be combined with the
bones and potash. The finer the
bones are ground the more speedy
their action. If the bones are ground
in raw state, that is, without steam
ing or burning, and ground very fine
and mixed with three times theil
weight of fine muck or peat, or leaf
mold, and kept moist for three weeks
before bcing1Rsed, they will generate
all the ammonia necessary to the
rapid growth of wheat or other grow.
ing crops, without the addition OF
other substances.
