AJessou for SDutheYn Girls.

There are among us now young peo-
ple who are growing mp in that ssddest
phase of life for the young. "old bef' re
their time" who have 70 bake and to
brew, to toll and to spin, scross whose
fair young brows no shadows should
have come, and yet their daily lives are
harassed by carping cares and petty
an1ieties, whose de-ires are thwarted'
whose hopes sre batGed and aspirations
chilled. For the encouragement OF
such. would relate an instance which
has recently come under my own obser-
vation.
Two young sisters were left. ike 80
many hundred others, penniless by the
war. with their educations uncompleted,
and most OF the cares Of a large family
resting upon them. Undaunted, they
determined not to become mere house
hold druges, but to continue ladies OF
culture and education. While there
fore they swept, cooked. sewed, washed
dishes, made beds, they never let one
dsv pass without devoting some portion
of it-never more than two hours, new
er less than one-to their mental i'm
provement. In one year they had read
one or two books of the "Rne'd,
Prescott's "Histo.y of Ferdinand and
Isabella" Mscauley's essays, Racine's
plays, Dante's Inferno" Jerusalem
Delivered" "Childe Harold" Con
quest Of Grenada" Conquest OF Pc
ru," all of Scott, all of Burns, and ever
so much Shakespeare, besides which.
one kept up her music, while the other
carried on her unfinished studies OF sl-
gebra and geometry; and in no halls OF
learning in the land can you find better
instructed young women than these two
sisters. OF course. from time TO time.
they varied their studies, and l have
only given part Of theu list for one
yeaE

A correspondent gives bis reasons for
fall plowlrg as follows: By expert
ence and oh,ervation | am satisfied that
all soils ought to be ploHed in the fall,
especially green sward, for several ress-
0ns.
1. The sod rots during the winter,
aud thus supplies the coils with Dutri-
ment ready prepared for tie young crop.
2. The humps become pulverized
sooner, permitting .he land to be stock
ed down in better shape.
3. A team can work much easier iii
the fall, and the farmer is less hurried.
The action of the atmosphere upon the
soil for longer time is also beneficial. -
A correspondent of an exchange, dis
russiug the same topic, says: Il have
tried fall plowing on light and heavy
soils. On light soils, which never pro
duce cakes md clods, it does Well. On
heavy soil it is commonly detrimental,
If followed by dry winter, it some
times succeeds; but commonly it pro
duoes a hard clodly soil, which is long
in becoming mellow. / have known
this hardness TO last full year after
ward. Even when the land was thor
oughly aud evenly drained, this unfa-
vorable result followed. It is therefore
necessary to use caution in plowing
heavy or adhesive cIayey land i'll au-
tumn, and as general rule it should bs
avoided"

Auditor of Public Accounts
Wheat CGltUra.

We appeal to every wheat grower to
plow this year at least two inches deep
er than ever before for his wheat crop.
We ssk them to plow with three horses
abreast instead of two, so take a deep,
broad furrow and thoroughly turn un~
der the weeds The secret of success
in wheat culture is, deep and thorough
preparation of the soil for seed. Ii
snv of our readers don't believe this,
lot them try Lsw acres for wheat by
the slip. shod way of plowing only a few
inches, and by giving deep and thorough
blowing and narrowing to the balance,
they will need no further arguments
ever after. II one has manure abont
his barns, if he will haul it and spread
il over the wheat field after the seed is
sown. he will see the beneficial effects
of manure. Better only put in half
the land to wheat, and do it right, than
to skim over the land and do it in q
halfyay manner We must yearly farm
better. Better crops are what we want
Less land in the cereals, but large crops
Let the surplus lands be put in pasture
and meadow, and be put in proper
manner, SO thst they will produce sd>
ysptsoeously.-R RuraI Horid.
