FARMERS BOYs.-If boy manifest a
decided tendency for machinery, mer-
Chandise, or literature, then he should
be allowed to follow the bent of his incli-
nation. 1t is folly to spoil good una
chinist by trying to make poor farmer
but nine boys out of ten who are brought
up on farm, and are judiciously instruc-
ted aud not made mere drudges. will
take to agriculture rs ducks to water.
More than half the merchants and pro-
teSsional men of cities are every day
longing for home in the country, and
are looking forward to the time when
they can purchase farm, delve the soil,
raise. stock. grow fruits. and play the
landlord. II this is so. and there can be
no doubt of it. then why should it be so
difficult to train our boys to love farming,
to honor the vocation as the one evident
ly designed by the Creator for the ma
jority OF mankind to follow? We do not
believe the fault is in the boys, but in the
injudicious training which they receive.
The farmers home should be made more
pleasant. Books and newspapers should
abound, and furnish occupation for the
brain while the muscles are idle. Work
u the heritage Of man, but brain work is
Just ~ essential as muscle work. No
boy can be developed into perfect man
hood who is not taught to think as we'll
- work. and the intellectual training
should be the leading idea in childhood.
The farm furnishes ample scope for ex-
ercising muscles. but let books, papers.
and society go along with the work. God
has made US social beings, and one reas-
on why farmers sons aredisc0ntented with
their life is that it is too isolated. They
want more sociability, and he is wise
father that keeps open doors to hie neigh
bors, and cultivates all the amenities Of
society. and thus imparts Intellectual Wig
or which only comes by frequent contact
with companions. Music should also
lend its charms to the farm house and
keep the boys at home. To psss away
winters evening, there is nothing moro
delightful than singing. with piano ac-
compartment. Ii the latter canno, be
afforded. then let the violin or tla,e take
its place. In any event. study to make
home delightful aud farm lille one of en-
jeyment. Farming. in i,sef. has many
sources OF pure pleasure, ard these should
be cherished. and the attention of the
boys called TO them. No man has better
opportunities for making his home pless.
ant and happy than the farmer. and if he
fails to do SO. he cannot blame his bows
for wishing to follow some other occura-
t1oa and desert the old homestead. -rPar.

AGRICULTURE IN GREECE.-In Greece
the yearly production Of grain is made
-quate for the supply of the inhabitants,
who, like all Southern nations, consume
q larger amount of bread and less meat
than is the case in England, Germany,
and the northern parts Of France. &c.
Consequently from 100000 to 100000
are annually expended in the purchase
of foreign corn, which, under improved
systems of taxation, communication.
and cultivation, might easily be pro-
duced in this country. Scarcely any
pains have been bestowed to improve the
breed OF cattle in the Kingdom OF Greece
since it's independence. The oxen are
small. and generally ill-nourished, and
the sheep likewise. But little care is
taken to provide the tlocks and herds
with proper folds in Winter, when the
mountains and sometimes the plains are
covered with snow, or to supply them
with fodder under such circumstances,
the consequences being that many sheep
and lambs perish, during severe seasons,
from the frost and snow. The wool
crop is nearly all shipped to America,
via Patras. in an unwashed state. The
cultivation of the cotton plant assumes
every year larger proportions, owing to
the requirements OF the numerous spin
ming factories established in this country
of which there are about Is, turning al
together 10000 spindles, and producing
2OO, 900 bundles of twish per annum.
The landholders are thus encouraged to
cultivate cotton, as they are sure of dis
posing ofit for local consumption. Be-
sides which. if the staple is clean and
white, it is preferred to the Turkish a,
Marseilles. For the above reasons the
cultivation of the cotton plant in Greece
h now becoming an important consider
alton for the agriculturist. The valonia
crop collected in Acarnania is liable to
vary in quantity and to be much smaller
in dry seasons when no rain falls after
the acorn has set. The principal por.
ton is shipped to England, and the re-
mainder to Italy and Trieste.
