HarrOWing Wheat.

TIE uniform testimony Of all those
who have tried narrowing wheat in
the spring is, that it pays. One SUBJ
scriber says "I have acted upon the
advice given by you, and 1 find the
result at harvest most Satisfactory. L
began the custom of narrowing fifteen
acres, or about one-half the usual
number of acres that SOW. My
neighbors, who had never seen it done,
insisted that it would kill it out. 1
shall continue the practice, as have
now procured-.one of Thomss's mooth-
ing harrows, which, in a great
measure, enables me to dispense with
the roller, which l 8 till use, however,
when the early spring is an unusally
dry one. think by using the harrO W
that the wheat tillers-that is, stools
cut better than when it is not eulti-
waited in the spriug.n
Another subscriber writes as
follows; "I find that narrowing
wheat in the spring pays well. 1t
gives the wheat good start, and the
narrowed portion ripens as early as
the unharrowed part, and has heavier
seeds.u
In narrowing wheat, care must be
taken that the soil is sufficiently dry,
so that the harrow will pulverize it
nicely. In such cases, once narrowing
is as advantageous to the wheat crop as
one good working of field Of corn In
the early stages of its growth. Ex-
perience and judgment must deter
mine the precise time when this work
should be done. 1t should not be
done until the heavy frosts in March
are over, which will however, depend
much upon the season.

REIDING.


A common school teacher in The
Lima Gazette says
There is no other branch so neg
lected in our common schools as read
ing, and the good reader Is q scarce
''article." We think that the teachers
chiefly sTe to blame. They do not
take interest enough 10 it. Go to our
county examinations and listen to
that army Of poor readers. Some of
them read as If .hey never had studied
this sublime art, aud never intended
TO. 1t is delightful to listen to q good
reader, but torture to listen to q poor
one Teachers should not neglect
this branch because IL Is = peculiarly
difficult one to teach. This very diff.
fieulty should be to rs an incentive to
better qualify US to the task. To ae-
eomplish anything the pupil must be
completely Interested and to do this
we must double our interest IN it.
Use judgment in selecting the lessons.
Give your classes variety. Have them
read from different books; from news
papers advertisements II you can't
mud anything else in them. Give your
sixth reader class 3 first or second
reader and see how awkwardly they
will read. We know the teacher has
many things to contend with in the
teaching OF reading, chief among
which are the unsuitable books with
which the lower classes in particular
are provided. Generally parents do
not consult the teacher, but provide
their children with books about two
grades too high and il is useless for
the teacher TO protest, for they viii
provide no other. II parents would
visit the schools As they should, they
would better understand a teachers
trials, and not put such blocks In their
way. Bot we must do the best We
can, and use every available means 50
that this sin Of poor reading can no
longer be laid st our door.

Honesty the Best Policy.
A STORY FOR THE TIMES.

One day the Duke of Buceleueh, a
Scotch nobleman, bought a COW in
the neighborhood Of Dalkeith, where
he lived. The COW was to be sent
home the next day. Early in the
morning, as the duke was taking a
walk in a very common dress, he saw
boy trying in vain to drive the COW
to his residence. The COW was yerv
unruly, and the poor boy could not
get on with her at all. The boy moi
knowing the duke and bawled out TO
him in broad Scotch accent
'Hie, nun, come here, and gIe's 8
hand wiz the beast"
The duke walked slowly on, moi
seeming to notice the boy, who still
kept calling for his help. At last.
finding that he could not get on with
the COW, he cried out in distress.
'lCome here, nun, and help us, and
as sure as anything I'll gle ye half
get."
The duke went and lent a helping
hand.
"And now" said the duke, as tbey
trudged along after the COW. HhoW
much do you think you will get for
the lOO z"
81 dinna ken," said the boy. "but
I'm sure o. something, for the folks
at the big house are guild to q
bodies"
As they came to a lane near the
house, the duke slipped away from
the boy, and entered by a different
way. Calling his butler he put a
sovereign in his hand, saying, iGiye
that to the boy who has brought the
cow.b
He then returned to the end of the
lane where he had parted from the
boy, so as to meet him on his way
back.
"Well, how much did you get ?''
asked the duke.
ga shilling" said the boy, "aud
there's half o. it to ye."
"But surely you had more than q
shilling ?' said the duke.
"No," said the boy "sure that's a.
/ got and dye no think IFS plenty ?''
'I do not" said the duke; "there
must be some mistake and as 1 am
acquainted with the duke, IL you re-
turn 1 think I'lI get you more"

Beet Tea, and How to Prepare IE.

First let US take that probably most
valuable of all invaiids' preparations,
viz beef tea. The quickest and best
method of preparing good beef tea is
as follows Take a pound of goo
lean gravy beef, cut It up into little
pieces, pour over them pint of cold
water and add q little salt. Then
take fork and squeeze these pieces
in every direction, in order, as much
as possible, to extract the juices out
of the meat. Next place it ALI. e.,
both water and meat-in an enameled
saucepan, and put it by the side of the
fire, not on the fire, and gradually
heat il, taking the greatest care that
it does not boil. Having continued
this process for an hour and q half
or two hours, during the last half
hour keeping the tea hot without
even simmering, strain the whole of
through q strainer, pressing the meat
again with spoon, so as to squeezs
as much as possible all the goodness
out of it. Then remove all the fat.
This caa be done by carefully skim =
ming it, or, If time will allow, by let
ting 1t get cold, wheE the fat will
harden on the top. Now to my mind
good beef tea is one of the incest
things we can take when sick, bu {
sick persons tire of it and lOathe it q.
When this is the case, very often by
adding little sherry and allowing it
to get cold (when, il proberly made,
it will be e jelly, patients will take
il in this form when they could not
in the liquid state.

The Tomb OF Washington.


1t is on the side of steep hill, Oh
the edge of deep wooded dell leading
toward the river. The interior walls
are built Of brick, arched over at the
height of eight feet from the ground.
The front OF the tomb is rough, and
has plain iron door inserted in q
freestOne easement. Upon q stone
panel over the door are inscribed the
words, ''I am the resurrection and
the life ; he that believeth in me,
though he were dead, yet shall he
live" Enclosing this tomb is brick
structure twelve feet high. In front
of it is an iron gateway, opening sew
eral feet in advance OF the vault door,
and forming kind of ante-chamber.
This gateway is flanked with pilasters
surmOunted with stone coping. COW
eringa pointed Gothic arch. Over
this arch is a tablet, on which is in
scribed, "Within this enclosure rest
the remains of General George Wash
ington."
In the ante-chamber of the tomb are
two marble sarcophagi, containing the
remains of Washington and his lady.
That of the patriot has a seulptured
lid on which is represented the
American shield suspended over the
flag of the Union the latter hung in
festOons and the whole surmounted as
a crest by an eagle with open wings
perehed upon the superior bar Of the
shield. Below the design, and deeply
cut in the marble, ia the name of
Washington. This sarcophagus was
constructed by John Struthers, of
Philadelphia, from q design by Striek-
land, and was presented by him to the
relatives of Washington. 1t consists
OF an excavation from a solid block of
Pennsylvania marble, eight feet in
length and two in height. The mar
bic coffin of Lady Washington, which
stands upon the left of the other, is
from the same ehiseI, and plainly
wrought. Both can be seen by the
visitor through the iron gate.
Who can stand at the portals of this
tomb, where sleeps all that is lert of
the mortality of the Father OF his
Country, and not feel the outgoings of
a devotional spirit-an Involuntary
desire to kneel with reverence, not
with the false adulation of mere hero
worship, but with the sincere SYM
pathies of soul bending before the
shrine Of superior goodness and great
ness?

They went back, the duke rang the
bell, and ordered all the servants to be
! assembled.
Now" said the duke to the boy,

you the shilling"
1T was that chap there with the
apTon," said he, pointing to the
Z butler.
The butler fell on his knees, con-
fessee bis fault, and beggei TO be for

elgn and quit his seryiea Immediate
ly. "You have lOst,D said he, "your
money, your situation, and our char
acter by your deeeitfuinsss learn for
the future that honesty is the best
/ policy p"
The boy now found out who il was
that helped him to drive the COW /;
and the duke was so pleased with the
manliness and honesty of the boy,
that he sent him 70 school and pro-
vided for him at bis own expense.
