In Praise Of Labor.

Alex. b., in the Scientific Farmer, says al
was working the other day by the roadside,
when aneighbor drew up his horse, and after
some pause said He who knows not what
it is to labor knows not what it is to enjoy
Now this neigbbor is somewhat of an &C.
centric character, and is given to wise say
ings, and it did not excite my surprise that
the morning greeting was so odd, or that he
Immediately drove on without further re-
mark. But the old gentleman's words have
been ringing in my ears ever since, and
| know that the procession of ideas which
came yelling up from the depths of my
mind lightened that days work, and the
work then following. The moderate labor
of the farm-with the hours of leisure-so
happily sandwched with our labor, is the
choicest blessing of the country or farm
life. Perhaps one reason that we are not
ready always to admit this, and try often to
question it, is, that as things are constituted
we may be forced or enticed to work harder
than we should. How many work unto
wearisomeness and exhaustion, so that the
days ending find them with less of man
hood in mind and in body than they had
yesterday How many are subject to the
wearying process, so that the crooked spines,
harsh faces, big hands, tell the story But
this overstepping of the limits that give
bloom, health, larger joy to our minds, and
letting toll, hard and uninviting, do its
crushing work upon us, is sad thing, and
if any little sermon of mine can help to
mark the happy halfway house, where
enough work is, and not too much, so that
Others may find it, then It's enough to re-

ENGLISH AND AMERICAN FARMING.-It
has been said that if the farmers of Eng
land, as body, produced in proportion to
the production OF those in the two counties
of Norfolk and Lincolnshire, the people OF
that country could not, at the present rate
of consumption, consume one-half of the
total And yet we consider the farming of
England as Hyperion to a satyr compared
to our tickling the soil. The average yield
of wheat in England is considered to be
about twenty-six bushels per acre, yet in
some counties, by scientific tillage, the aver
age has been thirty bushels, and has often
reached forty-seven and fifty bushels per acre.

Fall Dairying.

Quite number of farmers in states south
of Vermont favor having cows come in late,
and making butter in fall and winter. One
of them says " A great advantage in fall
dairying is the safety with which butter
may be held for the best prices, while, in
the warm season, this is always attended
with considerable risk. Then, too, the but
ter of fall and winter is easily made of uni
form grades, and the maximum yield is

A QUERY ABOUT ORCHARD-GRAss.-" +.
S." of Warren, writes to inquire how orch
ard-grass would do for grazing on a light
loan soil in rather poor state. Peoples
ideas differ as to what "rather poor state -
is. We consider the piece on which we
have orchard-grass growing now (seeded
last spring. as in rather poor condition, and
consequently after moving it, about the
middle of August, we top-dressed it with
ashes at the rate of about sixty bushels per
acre. The rains since have washed the
ashes into the ground, and our hired man
said yesterday that it would be as heavy as
man could swing his scythe through by
the last Of May. We think orchard-grass
will do as well as any on poor soil, and bet
ter than any other where there is partial
shade, as under trees, but if we were laying
down rather poor land for permanent pas
ture, we should want to give it good dress
ing of ashes or ground bone, or both. Il

CHAPTER III.

School was indeed new world to Regi-
nald. He made friends and found enemies
he worked hard, and played well, and on the
whole was tolerably popular. Thompson,
however, still kept the knife, using it upon
all OCCASIONS which caused thrill OF indig-
nation to go through Reginald's delicate
frame.
"If can't get it in one way will another"
thought he, and he brooded over the knife
until he magnified every word that Thomp-
son said Into series of insults to himself (;
and Thompson, pleased with the power he
possessed over the boy, exercised 1t on all
occasions.
So the spring went by, and summer came,
and the days slipped away, and the holidays
were close at hand.
"If | were strong enough would fight him
for it " said Reginald to Barton, one day.
The remark was repeated TO Thompson,
who was standing by the side of the river
that ran at the foot OF the playground.
At chat moment Reginald drew near.
80 you would like to fight me ii you
were big enough" said he, with sneer.
81 should 70 answered Reginald, warmly.
"Ah, it's bad state of feeling. If the
knife causes such wicked thoughts, the
best way is to get rid of it. So here it
goes, anu lntIt 10 an oiu VI it' Th'
drawing the knife from his pocket, he flung
it into the river. 1t fell short of where he
intended, and Reginald saw his beloved
knife through the clear river, lying within
what he supposed to be an easy reach,
Without moments thought he jumped in
after it, regardless of the cry that rose
"The waters deeper than it looksl"
His hand had, as il by instinct grasped
the knife, but as he tried to struggle back
through the swiftly running water, he got
confused for, as the boys had called out
to him, it was great deal deeper than it
looked, and Just there the ground shelved
suddenly, and Reginald, taking false
step, lost his footing
There was general cutlery, which brought
DIR. Field, and a visitor who had just arrived
to the spot.
"Murray's in the river !"
And they pointed to the spot where the
poor boy had sunk.
With such a cry as the boys long remem-
bered, the visitor had plunged into the
water, and had caught the boy who had
risen for the last time, by the arm. And
the next thing that the boys knew was that a
white, dripping form was carried through
the playground into the house
