Free access of atmospheric air to every part
of the soil is of the utmost importance.
The air assists the various processes of de-
composition by which dead animal and vege-
table matter is made to yield products of
the highest value as elements of the food of
plauts If the soil is full of water, of
course the air cannot get into the soil to
perform this office. Hence, drains 10y draw
inc off the water beneath, give TIE air free
admission to the soil, and each shower of
raip bv displacing the air already present1
and then falling through the soil and running
away in the drains, reuews the supply of fresh
eft. Drains actually diminish the loss of plant
food by washing away. Stagnant water is in
furious to the roots of plants. They will not
grow IN it. Draining removes this, and hence
The plants send down their roots deeper. Con
seoueptly their capability of absorbing nour-
ishmept is greatly increased. 1t is this increas-
ed depth of the roots in well drained soil which

seize and absorb these soluble matters Dram
inc causes the rain to pass through CONSIDER
able thickness of soil before it ruEs OH, ana
bence it causes less loss of nutritve matter

s,aiued and Polished Floors.

A correspondent of the Country Gentleman
who thinks that carpets are too expensive
for daily use and that something which is
cheaper and at the same time more easily
kept clean is needed, says that friends hall
and kitchen were foored, as he supposed,
with strips of black walnut and pine; but he
was informed that the owner had caused the
floor to be smoothly laid, and with his own
hands had stained each alternate board
dark color and then WITH shellac had finished
the whole to fine polish. He says ~
shall have my hall and dining-room floors
planned smoothly and evenly by carpenter
and then myself rub carefully with sponge
or brush, avoiding any daubs over the seam,
into each alternate board stain prepared as
follows: One quarter of pound OF asphalt
tum and half pound of bees wax, to one gal
lon of turpentine. If too thin, add beeswaX;
if TOO light in color, add asphaltum, though
that must be done with caution, as very ut
tie will graduate the shade, and black walnut
is not what its name indicates, but rich,
dark brown: or burned lumber in alcohol, to
the proper consistency of easy application,
NAV be used without the beeswax; and after
a thin coat of shellac has been laid over the
whole and the surface smoothed over with
sandpaper, a coat of common varnlsh VIII
give it a splendid finish. A breadth OF carpet
or mating, or a piece of oilcloth laid down,
will protect it where the greatest wear comes.
- The narrower the floor, the finer will be the
effect: but in any case it will excite your own
and your neighbours admiration and prove
Joy forever.

TRANSLATED by Robert Southey)
III hath he chosen his part who seeks TO please
The worthless word-iil hath he chosen his part
For often must he wear a look of ease
When grief is in his heart;
And often in his hours of happier feeling
With sorrow must his countenance be hung;
And ever his own better thoughts concealing,
Must he in stupid Grandeur's praise be loud,
And to the errors of the ignorant crowd
Assent with lying tongue.
Thus much would conceal that none should know
What secret cause have for silent wee;
Aud Taught by many melancholy proof
That those whom Fortune favors l. pollutes,
] from the blind and faithless world aloof,
For fear its envy. nor desire its praise,
But choose my path through solitary ways

Improved Method of Making joints.

Mr.. W. NJ Beaufort, of England, has re-
Gently patented in England, France. Belgium,
and the United States, an improved method
of making joints for uniting the sides of box
es and other articles, which we think will be
useful to cabinet-makers and others, the joint
being made with great speed and with little
labor. The two pieces of wood to be fastened
together are first mitred in the usual manner,
and hole is then drilled preferably by a
drillng-machine) vertically in each piece,
from the bottom upward, at short distance
from the mtred edge. A channel or groove
is then cut out by circular saw, or other
wise. from the mitred edge to the drilled
holes. This channel is Of less width than
the diameter of the hole, and may be cut
either parallel to the side OF the piece OF wood
or at right angles to the mitre, so that wien
the two pieces are put together continuous
channel shall be formed between the two
holes. The two pieces are then held tightly
together, and a key is formed by running
metal, such as lead or ''fuslble metal,' in the
moulten state into the said channel: by this
means the key, which is to bind the two
pieces together, is cast in the place which it
is to occupy. The key may also be made
sepergtelv, of solid metal, and driven home
into the prepared channel. We need not
epumerate to our readers the many applica-
tions Of which this neat and effective joint is
susceptible.

Cows Retail ming the Afterbirth.

have always been successful in preventing
any difficulty by feeding good feed OF oats
each day for one or two weeks before thecow
comes in. have had several cases in seasons
when feed has been scarce, and have had to
feed a good deal of meal, especially corn and
cobs ground together; but even then, when
have taken the precaution to feed oats as
above, have had no trouble. AS cure
take three or four pounds OF any old
rusty lonesome old horseshoes, for i'll
stance-heat them red hot, then throw them
into bucket of three quarters Of cold water /;
take the Iron out and put bran enough in to
make a good 'mash". If the cow will not
eat it readily, salt it little. This will usual
ly remove the afterbirth within twenty-four
hours; if it does not, repeat the dose. The
cow should not 20 more than two days after
calying. Ihave used this for over twenty
years, and never failed, nor have 1 seen any
bad effect from its use. There may be other
medicines that will have the same effect, but
this is always at hand. ID. w. b.
The remedy most used here, but not
always successful, is fax seed, either ground
or whole. A large teacupful is boiled In one
pint of water until soft, and given in drink or
by a bottle, to be repeated two or three times
if needed; also frequent sailing if the COW is
hungry for it, 1 consider quart or two OF
corn meal per day and frequent sailing for
two or three weeks before calving, somewhat
of a preventive.-Country Gentleman.
