A negro party applied to livery stable
keeper IN this vicinity for team and sleigh
to take them to dance in the evening. Hav-
ing the fear OF the Civil Rights bill before his
eyes, he thereupon named a price, cash down,
that he did not expect they would pay: But
the colored gentlemen came down with the
greenbacks required, and ordered the convey
ance ready at o'clock in the evening. Ar
rived at the rendezvous, the liveryman blan-
keted his horses and sat down in corner OF
the room to wait for the dance to be over.
As the party warmed up in the exercise, the
tolerable, and the driver concluded to go out
to his sleigh, roll himself in blankets and
wait for the breaking-up Of the party. At
this moment one Of the colored gentlemen
approached and politely inquired if he would
have any objection to taking seat in another

Importance of slick in the Soil.

SILICA gives hardness and stiffness to
the straw and leaves of cereal grain.
When wheat or rye is sown where a
brush heap or pile of logs has been
burned to ashes, the straw will be I'M
usually stiff, and the leaves much harsh
er than other straw growing in the vi
entity, but away from the area of the
burning. The potash of the ashes and
the silica found in the soil are taken
mp by the growing plants, and form a
coating or liquid glass, which is spread
evenly over the straw and leaves of the
growing grain, as a metallic coat of
arms was used in old times to cover the
body of a soldier. When the
growing straw of wheat is enclosed in a
thin tube of elastic glass, the innumera-
bic spores, which frequently fill the en-
tire atmosphere like flakes of snow, and
which produce rust, do not find con
genial place for their Judgment and
complete development. But when the
plants do not have access to generous
supply of silica and potash, the stems
are SO timber that they are easily pros
trated 10y driving storms, so that the
ears of grain will be developed only in
part. When silica is available only in
small quantities, the pores from which
fungi spring adhere to the leaves and
stems. where they find suitable spot
for their development, and thus the
productiveness of the plant is seriously
impaired. The practical value of silica
is further perceived in the yield of ex-
ccllent fruit.-AnnUal Record of
Science aj}d Industry.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD,
Corn Sowed Fodder


The practice of sowing corn for
fodder or for feeding green when the
pastures fail in August and September
has become quite general IN all the
dairy districts of New England and in
two or three of the Middle States, es-
pecially in New York and PENNSYLVANIA:
and it is surprising that crop so use
full, SO quickly grown, so abundant in
yield and wlthal costing so little, is not
universally grown. Every year our
pastures get short, either from drouth
or from overstOcking, and almost every
farmer feels the want of something to
help out, to keep up flesh and milk and
his young animals growing. Well
what can be better than sowed corn?
The more the farmer can increase the
growth of his live animals, the greater
is his yearly increase in money value.
An animal which increases in weight
from 500 pounds to 1000 pounds, is
worth more than double when the beam
is raised at the latter figure, because
the increase ismainly flesh. Hence tits
one of the best of maxims to keep all
animals up to the highest point Of pro-
ductlon and value, and to keep all young
stock constantly growing until they
reach maturity, or maximum of weight
or development. And here again the
value of corn sowed for fodder comes in
very plainly, and we have no doubt
every reader agrees with us that it is
one OF the best crops to raise.

The quantity of honey necessary for

combs were returned to ID the hive, and
not bee was made angry, nor was any

used in case they had been angered by

1t was claimed that any one, that could
operate carefully, and especially with
out fear, would be equally successful.
But few besides those having some
experience with bees ventured to at
tend. On this point we need different
training. We must disabuse the grow
ing mind of this awful fear. It is the
duty OF the agricultural press generally,
and of farmers who wish to save half of
the immense honey waste of the coun-
try, to do something. Change the
teaching. If boy can be taught to
risk his life at the cannons' mouth, to
accomplish and bring about wished
