Our NE1GHBoR's CHILDREN.-A farmer
was walking with friend through beauti
full meadow, when he chanced to observe a
thistle growing thriftily on the opposite side
of the fence. Immediately he sprang over
and cut it off close to the ground.
"Is that your field ?" asked the other.
"Oh no; but bad weeds don't care much
for fences. If should leave that thistle to
blossom in my neighbours field, should soon
have plenty in my own"
His answer may serve as hint to fathers
and mothers. 1t is of Importance to them
how their neighbors' children turn out. Heart
weeds care less than thistles for boundary
fences Boys and girls who 60 to the same
school, or who live in the same neighborhood
catch many trait from each other. 1t is oul
duty as we'll as our interest to do what we CAL
for the benefit of our neighbors' children.

WHEAT.

Ifthere are any farmers in this country who
design sowing wheat, it would be we'll fol
them to remember that October is the proper
time to perform the work. There was good
crop of wheat raised last year, but it will moi
last always. The general good of the county
and the prosperity of every individual farmer
demand that there be at least enough wheat
raised for home consumption. This cannot
be done unless the land is properly prepared
and the seed sown soon enough in the season
to allow the young wheat to root we'll before
the severe cold of winter sets in. Sometimes
late sown wheat makes good crop, but such
instances are exceptions to the general rule
Sometimes cotton planted in June makes a
fair crop; but nine times out Of ten it fails
Just so with wheat sown at Christmas. Some
times it hits, utgenerally it fails. Sow soon,
SOW good seed in good ground, and you may
expect good crop.

HETEROD0X DOCTRINE. =

In some departments of life, and in some
avocations, it is difficult to tell what is ortho.
dox from what is heterodox. Error so closely
resembles truth, that none but an experienced
eye can discover the difference. This is not
the case with the farmer. That agricultural
creed is orthodox, which enjoins the buying
of nothing that will grow on the farm, and
the opposite is heterodox creed. Every
farmer should raise on bis farm, everything
that the soil and climate will admit. 1t is a
strange thing that the farmers of our country
have not found out, practically, that in the
South, We can produce all the absolute neces-
sites of life, and multitude of the luxuries.
Only few of our farmers are aware Of the
fact that corn, wheat, oats, rye and barley,
can be raised in their own fields, and only a
few know that bacon can be cured anywhere
but in some northern market.

SALT FOR HoGs.-I have seen salt fed to
hogs for fifty years; and in the last twenty
years have fed many heavy hogs, ranging from
300 to 900 pounds, net. l fed them all liber-
ally with salt; have never lost one. These
hogs have been fed in close pens, and their
principal food was corn meal made into dough.
This dough I have salted once a day. Some
times my hogs fail to clean out the troug in
that case 1 would put handful of salt, with
some water, into the trough, which they lick
up with much relish. In addition to SALT l
feed Goals from the stove. make it regu-
lar custom to feed Goals, and it is astonishing
how healthy and robust it will make them.
Let the hogs have plenty of salt and coal, and
we shall hear less of cholera j. L.

SPEAK FOR CHRIsr-Every word we
speak for Christ is pouring oil on the fires Of
grace in our own heart, and will make them
burn with an ardor otherwise unknown. The
Christian will find, that while, before he
commenced this course, he had thousand
questionings and difficulties after he has
done so, he will scarcely have an hours
trouble with himself. The truth seems to be
this: Christ is so kind and unexacting a
master that he will not let his servants fight
two battles at once; if they will take the
sword and 60 into the enemy's camp, he will
keep the citadel for them. If they will be
about his business, he will set their hearts en-
tirely at rest.-Dubhn Tract

sonage will aid church in retaining pas

minister and his family. They feel delight
in it, little less than if they held it in fee sim
pie. They aim to make it comfortable. 1t
is soon adorned with vines, and shrubs, and
shade trees. The members of the church,
having an interest in it, take pleasure in i'm
proving and beautifying it, and adding to its
conveniences. Its occupants have in it
home-feeling which they could never expe'
rience in rented house. Soon it becomes as.
sociated with events joyous and sad, hopeful
and trying, the faithfulness of friends and the
goodness of God, which cause the hearts of all
to cleave to it as the dearest spot on earth. A
pastor will not leave such home through
mere fickleness, or to avoid some slight incon'
venience-Religious Herald.
