For the journal,
WINTER EVENINGS.

y,s thc.e long evenings that We are having,
what comfort the farmer takes in thinking over
the rrofits of the past season, and what plans he
will Law GU, for next summer, how he is going to
rs,e this and that and what crops ofroots he is 60.
ING to raise for his stock the coming winter. And
by the way don't think that any right smart farmer
will ever try to get along without good lot OF roots
ct least he will try TO raise them. don't know
OF any crop that will pay better than bees OF tur
nips. l mean of course for those that live BACK
away from market where we must send our pro
ducts TO market in concentrated form. l kept
an expense of raising turnips two years the amount
of labor expended on them at fair days wages nc
account made Of manure. The first year they cost
nine cents per bushel, the second twelve cents
those were Ruta Baga. l never kept an account
Of the fiat turnps or beets. Iconsider the Mangie
Wurtzle the best root that can raise for all pur
poses. There is another thing in regard TO ials-
ing roots; if farmer has good lot OF them 10
feed out to his stock it will take mp his time so
that he will not have to spend much OF 1t at the
store with class of oafers prying into the anaI'
of his neighbors, and his cattle will look so much
better that he will be willing to spend more time
taking care of them and perhaps will be VIKING 10
card them little. .
Now, kind reader / do not profess 10 be much OF
a writer, but do claim to be a practical farmer
one that earns his bread by the sweat OF his prov"
When was young there was not the chances Aoi
getting learning that there Is now quit gong
to school when was fourteen years Old, and nave
been fighting with poverty ever since
But this is straying from the subject. " mat l
want is that farmers will lay their plans for the
Centennial year that j, at hand to Try and raise
little better crop than ever before. DO something
big in the way of crops for it is the last Centen-
NAL that you and shall ever see. There Is
another thing about these evenings, it is the enjoy
ment and comfort that the farmer takes when his
chores all done to draw up to the fire with bis
basket Of apples and his family around him.
"For God in mercy looks down from above,
And paternally gives him his bread,
Provided-he works eighteen hours every Gay,
And devotes but six to his bed"
Oh yes, it is very pleasant to sit around the win
ters FIRE at peace with all the world.
But not half so pleasant to hoe in the field
Where the witch grass is six inches high
With the hot scorching sun pouring down on your
back,
Seems each moment as though you would die"

CLEARING LAND WITH DYNAMITE.

Experience at clearing lands, both of
stumps and large boulders, with dynam.
it", in Scotland has proved successful.
1 he following account is given of late
trial in an Edinburg paper: A spadeful
of earth was removed from the side of a
stump and a hole driven into the stamp
with crowbar Into this hole a car
fridge OF dynamite was pressed by means
of IA wooden ramrod, then detonatien
percussion cap with Blackford's fuse
attached, was squeezed into small car.
fridge or primer of dynamite, and in.
serted into the hole in the trunk in con-
tact with the charge. The hole was
filled up with loose earth, about a foot
length of the fuse being left bare. A
match was next applied to the fuse, and
sufficient time was taken for the powder
to reach the percussion cap to allow the
operatives to retire to sale distance.
When the explosion occurred the trunk
was literally blown out OF the ground,
some of the fragments weighing nearly
twenty pounds, being thrown to a dis.
tance of over hundred yards: The de-
structon OF the stump was complete. In
breaking up big boulder stones the dy-
Mantle was simply placed on top OF The
stone, covered with wet sand and. fixed
with fuse in the ordinary way. The
result was the reduction of the boulders
to fragments the size of walnut. 1t
was effectually proved by the expert
ments that land can be speedily cleared
OF formidable Instructions to good culti-
vation by the use of dynamite, and the
committee of the society who watched
the operations expressed themselves %
highly satisfied with the results.
