stroyed, and the fire was still burning

Manure for the Gardes.

Hen manure, when mixed with enough
soil to work fine, has special fitness for the
onion crop, as it can be applied to the sur
face where wanted, has no weed seeds, and
is exceedingly valuable, being little less
than guano.
Leached ashes have an especial value
on sandy soils, and produce most effect
upon onions, potatoes, corn and the root
crops Their value is lasting, aad the ef-
feet of liberal application will be noticed
for years, and if not to be hauled more
than three miles their use is profitable.
Unleached ashes have most marked
effect when applied broadcast over onions
partly grown-in fact, it is one of the most
valuable special manures for this crop, and
is worth for this purpose twice the amount
paid by soap-makers. For all garden
crops they are valuable; potatoes, turnips,
beets and peas deriving most benefit next
to onions.
Lime is Of most value on rich old soils,
its effect being to unlock and release fer
tility already in the soil, but inactive or
insoluble. Hence, upon poor soils it may
sometimes do moro harm than good, but
used upon rich old garden soils its use oc-
casionally will produce astounding results.
Super-phosphate of lime produces very
quick effect, and besides the fertility it
adds to soft soil, the rapid development
it adds in plant life enables the roots to
Ia; hold of much food they would not 9TH
erwise In the garden it lis Of special
value to hasten growth while plants are
still small and unable yet to reach coarser
mnnures, and also to touch up and bring
forward any portions Of crops whsch seem
to need further help. While depending
chiefly on stable and green manurcs, we
always find profitable use for more or less
super-phosphate.
In the garden land plaster is exceedingly
variable in its effects. Some of the most
marked benefits from its use have been
noticed upon vines during drought If
applied over the surface Of the hill and
vines during drought so severe that the
leaves droop at midday, they will, in a
couple of days, show no signs of dropping,
but exhibit unusual vigor.

The Model Farmsry

The model farmer cant be found in
every neighborhood. You may even
tramp over half county possibly without
meeting him. But when your eyes once
fall on tho model farmer you may know
him by the following signs
/. The model farmer thoroughly iores
his business regards it one Of the noblest
Of callings IS wide awake to all its inter
ests, and takes an active part in enterprise
to push them forward. But our model
farmer has no hatred Of honest workers in
other lines of industry, aud knows full
well that every pursuit is made prosperous
through the harmony and prosperity of all
the rest.
2. Our model farmer is TAmker.
He has laid out his farm with especial re-
florence to the highest possible convenience.
The arrangement OF his barn, feeding
sheds and pig-pens all show the thought
full purpose. His fields are cultivated
with rotation Of crops settled upon years
beforehand. The model farmer likewise
plans the work of the season so that every
particular job has its place, and there is
no confusion or doubt as to what comes
next.
3. The model farmer is likewise a
model business man. He is wary about
going in debt, knows just what his liabili-
ties are, keeps systematic accounts Of all
his transactions, can tell you the exact
cost and profit of every crop and every
herd, meets his obligations with prompt
ness, and don't finish up new house or a
new barn with mortgage.
4. The model farmer is model in
skillful farm management. He uses all
lahor-saying instruments, but keeps them
in perfect order and housed when not in
use. You will find ON his tools neither
rust nor rot. He does every thing in its
proper time-loves thoroughness, hates
weeds, hates slovenly farming, gives his
stock good shelter and abundant food, but
knows and practices the art of feeding for
specific purpose-whether for growth or
fattening, butter or work. He knows also
the fitness Of particular soils to particular
products, and plants accordingly.
5. The model farmer is an economist.
He wastes no time. You viii NOT find
him loafng in groceries or whiting the
dry-goods boxes of the nearest town. His
time is part of his capital, and he invests
it 50 as to get the greatest profits. He
is also an economist of labor. He seeks
constantly to accomplish results with the
least possible wear and tear Of muscle, and
eyerygenuine appliance for shortening pro-
cess in labor finds favor with him. Being
far from market, he condenses his products
so as to transport the highest value in the
least bulk. Consequently he raises the
best stock, keeps it in fine condition, and
cultivates the best fruits.-Progressiue

on rusty hinges, bent and brown
Its latch IA gone, and horc and there

Theold farm gate has seen. each year,
The blossom bloom and Disappear
The bright green leaves Of spring unfold,
And turn 10 autumns rcd and gold.
The children have upon II clung
And In and out with rapture swung,
When their young hearts were good and pure
Whom Hope was fair and faith was sire.
Beside that gate have lovers true
Told the old story, always new,
Have made their vows have dreamed OF bliss,
And scaled each promise with kiss.
The old farm gate has openedwide

When lilies blo0med and locusts fair
With their sweet fragrance nled the ar.
That gate with rusty weight and chain,
Has closed upon the solemn train,
That bore her liieless form away
Upon dreary autumn day.
The lichens gray and the MOSES green
Upon iia rotting posts are seen,
Initials. carved with youthful skill,
Long years ago, are on II stu.
Yet dear to me above all things,
By reason ofthe thoughts II brings,
