Fall Flowing.

FALL blowing is a popular method OF
treating stubble fields, yet we have known
old farmers to object to it, arguing that SO
much exposure of the soil to the -un and
drying winds caused a large part of the
fertility to escape therefrom. The satu-
rated and dry condition of the soil being
alternated rapidly from too much expos
ure to the heat of the sun and drying
winds hastens the decomposition of the
organic matter or manures in the soil and
converts the vegetable mold into gases,
the only form of nOurishment fit fer plant
food, so rapidly and in such abundance
that the soil is unable to contain it all
This surplus fertility passes into the at
mosphere to remain until carried down
again by rains to enrich other farms.
However true this argument may be,
there are other claims in favor of the fall
blowing sufficiently valid to more than
overbalance all the objections to it, if the
work be properly done. There is much
to be gained by early blowing, before the
weed seeds have time to mature their
germs of perpetual annoyance to the vigi-
liant farmer. In this way both the peren-
NAL and annual varieties may be efSectual-
ly eradicated. Fall blowing destroys the
hiding places of noxious insects, which
feed upon the growing crops, and puts the
rubbish in shape to be converted into ma
nure, which upon spring blowing remains
in a raw state, to fire" the crops, and
causes no little damage during very dry
seasons.
The ground also becomes thoroughly
disintegrated and settled by the freezing
process Of winter, which puts it in bet
ter condition to receive and promote the
growth Of spring crops than freshly
plOwed land. 1t especially admits of
early sowing Of small grain, without
which a good yield is seldom produced.
And to have the important work of
blowing already done when the rush of
work comes in backward spring is no
small desideratum. The dryer and lump
Ter the ground is when plOwed the less
liable it is to become run together and
"baked" from heavy rains during fall
and winter. Speaking Of this puts us in
mind to call attention to the importance
Of laying off the lands for blowing in
such m amer that the surface-di ainage
will be most perfect, so that the fields
will be relieved as far as possible of the
surface water. Only he who observes all
these rules can claim the title of model
farmer. "-WeSte7n RuraI

Having observed that the discharge

to the rupturing of the cells containing

The Illusions OF Travel.

Another allusion OF travel is the fancy that
you have entered the realm OF perpetual holi-
day. Looking at the surface ofSthings Only as
you pass along, youlrefuse to look below the
surface. No sombre shadows fieck the gay
ecene. Your mood resembles that OF the fine
lady who did not know that poor people existed,
and who regarded aged paupers in the light OF
picturesque specke in LANDSCAPE which requir-
ed to be enlivened by red cloaks. To you all
people and places seem in festival. Some ma
gician has gone before TO create an
Arcadia along your path, like that with
which Potemkin grathed the eyes OF his
imperial mistress In her Journey to the Crimes
You flash by hamlels which seem to you Ike
painted villages in chllds toy box The
groups CT peasants belong not TO the gross race
OF horny banded, weather. beaten cons of toll
They are ideslized into Elginos and Massettos,
and it would hardly surprise you to hear them
burst into recitatiye, or TO see them Join in &
rustic dance. An air Of almost opsratic levity
enyelops them. They are actors in pre-ar-
ranged pageant. And the same illusion hsunts
you in gray old cities redoent OF tho Middle
Ages. 1t never occurs TO you, az you thread
their quaint alleys. that business in all its rsmi-
fications is going on around you with the same
prosaic routine which attends it in the far of
England, or that within a stones throw OF you
clerks are docketing accounts, tradesmen sell
ing their wares, clients consulting their attor-
news revolving bills OF COST farmers putting their
samples, doctors going 70 their rounds. priests
tending their tlocks, students assembled in their
classes professors enlghtening them from the
chair, and above all, hundreds OF artisans en-
gagged in all the varieties OF manual labor. 10
the holiday maker all around him seems holi
day; his own contentment seems contagious,
and nfects all his surroundings. His capacity
for realizing the fact that the new world into
which he has strayed has its labors, its cares and
its sorrows is temporarily suspended. In few
weeks his sympathies with work-dsy humanity
will revive, and he will re-awaken to proper
sense OF his responsibilities to his feliow-men.
But for the present he contemplstes them as the
puppets Of theatric show OF which he ia the
spell-bound aud impassive spectator. .-Saturday
