history and IN song, for It's war upon annoy
ing insects. II consumes clouds Of that lit
tIs pest, The mosquito, every sumner. And
there are some aies that resemble the wasp,
that are accustomed to destroy tie insect in
the egg. These are terrible enemies Of the
maggot, Of the woevil and the wheat.Hy, and
especially TO the apple tree caterpillar, in
whose bark they lay their eggs.
/ We might also speak The praises Of the
mole and the. toad AZ allies of the farmer in
his war against the destructive insects. But
the birds are by far the most usef III IN this
regard. Two sparrows have been known.
in single hour, to carry to their nests
forty caterpillArs. And the swallow, while
on the wing, destroys more apple moths and
millers than could be counted. The com.
mon robin slaughters more grubs in the
months Of May and June while feeding itr
young than David slew PhilistiDss il
his whole life. And the hated crow even,
no doubt destroys every year 500 grubs ia
one kernel Of corn. 10 a word, there is moi
one of the singing birds of our fields, woods
or gardens, which does not benefit the farm.

these beautiful, cheering and helpinI
birds are hunted aud destroyed by the reck

offered by stupid legislators for the de
struction of these very animals.

Vegetable Growth and Maturity.

Light is another condition Of vegetable
growth. All plants turn to the sun, as to a
common bsnefactor. The potato vine in the
cellar crawls, serpent like, to crevice in
the wall, through which the light streams in
once day; and the blossoms upon the trees
incline their thousand. tinted corols to catch
the first rays Of the rising suu. Daylight is
the only agent by which vegetables can alb
sorb carbonis acid from the atmosphere,
and e1hale oxygen. 10 darkness this ac-
ton does not take place. 1t follows, there
fore, that Towering plants in our houses are
healthful in the day time, because they give
out oxygen to be consumed by human lungs,
aud absorb carbon which has been exhaled
as waste from the body. Without the solar
ray the watery sap in the upper surface of
the leaf could not be decouposcd. Without
the chemical power oflight, there would be
no carbon to form the starch, sugar, gum
and woody fibre necessary for the develop
ment Of the plant.
The farmer, therefore, must never fail To
secure to his growing crops an abundance Of
the blessed sunshine. -
The last named condition Of success in
vegetable culture is the protection Of the
growing crops from destructive insects But
the farmer has friends as we'll as foes in the

I.H FOR the VERMONT FARHER.
That Smart Girl.

EDITOR VERMONT FARMER - In your
issue of December 3, there appeared an edi-
torisl item in which it is stated that ga girl 10
Bsrks county, Pa, only twelve years Of age
rises daily at four o'clock a. m, miks thir-
teen cows and prepares breakfast for the
family" and you go on to speak in terms OF
commentator.
In this instance there may DO necessity
for girl Of that age pursuing that course,
but it is a course not to be encouraged.
We hear much about the farmers wives Of
our country being broken down physically
by hard labor, by the incessant, never ending
duties of the household. To perform well
the duties Of after life, the girl Of twelve
years needs to pursue a course Of training
which will develop her physically and intel
leCtualy, making her strong healthy
woman Of we'll balanced mind this cannot
be accomplished with rising at four a. m.
milking thirteen COWS and preparing break
fast for tho family each morning. The girl
who does this at that age, continually, will
break down before she comes to womAn'i
estate aud be ct for nObOdy's wife.
We have an instance in mind. A girl Of
twelve, bright, active, full of childish life and
spirit, was, by the death Of her mother, left
with the family, consisting Of the father and
four young brothers depending upon her,
This state Of things continued for two years

Of Vermont aud New Hampshire ,and all New Eng

just what they may reasonably expect for the coming

Of the paper. The agricultural literary and grange
departments are conducted by separate and expo

able to make, from week to week.
The paper will be free from all Objectionable articles

We are glad our correspondent, j. II. r.,
has recalled the case Of that smart little
girl who ''milks thirteen COWS and prepares
breakfast, "--only twelve years old for he
brings out another point which We wish fully
to endorse. Our remarks upon the case,
as reported in the New Y ork Sun, it will be
remembered we're little playful. If the
statement wa1 tue, we could but admire the
smartness of that daughter We could not
evade the conclusion that she was worth
having for some interesting aud good young
man. And then again, we wish to rebuke
that false pride often cherished even by
farmers daughters which regards such labor
as degrading, if not disgracefal, We ad-
mired both the energy of the young miss,
and her womanly self-respect that recognized
tho dignity Of labor But we join most
heartily with our correspondent in his pro-
test against working our wives aud daug htsrs
30 hard. 1t is not only dangerous but
wrong. Ifinclined to overwork they should
be restrained. These wives are our queens
and these daughters the jewels Of our homes
and have special claim upon both our care
and affection. Yes, indeed, they are NOT
only worth haping but are worth saving
on their own account, and for the good they
will do.

In recent issue Of the Irish World, we
have another hit on England full.sized
wOod-Cut illustrating the fable of the vulture
and the fox. A tall, dry tree stands upon
the river bank upon the top Of which is the
vulture's nest full Of young ones and the old
bird stands upon neighboriug limb looking
deiantly at the fox at a foot of the tree.
A second look reveals tho fact that the fox
has borne lighted torch to the faggots that
surround the tree and the flames are rising
toward the proud bird that had stolen the
fox's cub, and threaten the life Of her young.
Now comes tho fable and its application,
which are as follows: f..
A vulture that had young ones. looking
out for something to feed them with, hap
pened to spy fox's cub, that lay basking
itself abroad IN the sun She made n swoop,
and trussed II Immediately; but before she
carried it quite off, the old fox, coming home.
implored her with tears in her eyes to spare
her cub, and pity the distress OF a poor fond
mother, who should think no atiliction SO
great us that of losing her child. The Yul-
ture whose nest was mp in very high tree,
thought herself secure enough from all pro-
jects OF revenge, so bore away the cub to her
young ones, without showing any regard to
| the supplicRtions of the fox. But that sub
tie creature, highly incensed at this outrage
Gus barbarity, ran to an altar, where some
country people had been sacrificing u kid in
| the open fields, and catching up y firebrand
| in her mouth, ran towards tho tree where
| the vulture's nest was, with u resolution o.
revenge. She had scarce assembled the first
branches. when the Vulture, terrified with
| the approaching ruin of herself and family
begged of the fox to desist, and with much
submission returned her the cub again safe
and sound.
MORAL This fable is warning to u,
not to deal hardly or injuriously by anybody
The consideration of our being in a hgl
condition of life. and those we hurt below us
will plead little or no excuse for us in thu
| case. For there Is scarce creature Of sc
despicable II rank but Is capable of avenginI
itself some way. and at some time or 9th or
| Let England, in particular, take the app lica
| ton of this fable to herself. Ireland is pool
| and weak. She is without fleets or armies
She cannot reach her high and mighty enemy
