Decay Of Timber.

Wet and dry rots are the two forms of
decay which attack timber that is exposed
to the weather, and the cause of both may
be said to be heat with moisture. Confined
air and evaporation cause dry rot, and i'm
perfec. evaporation wet rot, to greater OF
less degree.
Investigation shows that as preventive
against these rots the timber should be
well seasoned, and if used where liable to
be under the influence of sun and rain
should be well painted. or, if not painted,
should be impregnated with linseed or oil
of tar. The best preventive, however, is
found to be that of allowing free circu-
latiOn of air around the timbers, and the
walls to be allowed to dry thoroughly be-
fore the introduction of the timbers
should the timbers have taken either of
these rots very little can be done to pre-
serve them. In case the rot is perceived
to be at the end of beams only-where in
fact it generally commemorative best
method of preserving the rest of the tim
beers is to efectually cut away the decayed
portion and scarf with sound; if, howev-
er, this should not he practicable, the
wood may be scraped and cleaned Of all
fungus or extraneous matter and then i'm.
pregnated with any of the usual oils

to the pastor, or pounding" him, as it
has come to be called, seems to be grow.

substitute for salary they are heart.

he has long been suffering for the want OF

or even with gold watch and chain,

be paid irst--a salary sufficient to meet

When the Church Treasurer has The

How to Get On in Life.

This is the question of all questions;
and with the laboring man everything cen
tiers about the problem of securing com
petence for life. If a man spends a dol
lar more than he makes he is poOrs if he
lays by q dollar more than he expends he
is rich. In this simple proposition lies
the whole secret of success in the bust
ness of life. We eiIen near it said that
farmers do not know anything about
business; but if we apprehend that if a
man fails to get along well in life, be he
farmer, mechanic or manufacturer, or
anything else, it is oftener because he does
not employ the knowledge he does possess
in the particular business in which he is
engaged. Great learning, in the common
tie use in the real business of life; it is
one has the administrative capacity to
apply it. The farmer who knows the
most will get on the best if he has the fac
ulty to put his knowledge to use in his
daily operations; but if he has not this
faculty, his neighbor who does possess it,
though he be an ignorant man, will out
strip him in business which both are en-
gagged in. knowledge is power when it
is applied-it is dead weightto any man
or any business where the faculty to use it
does not exist with it.
When at the end of year farmer
finds that he has some funds on hand, that
establishes the fact that he is getting on
successfully. If he finds that he owes
something at the stores or machine-shops,
and has nothing on hand to pay with, the
fact is just as truly established that he is
falling behind. A surplus, however
small, is evidence that his administration
of the business has been good; deficit,
however small, exhibits lack of wise
management which will keep him behind
hand through life unless he can improve
his administration.
These are pithy truths, which every one
of our readers will recognize and admit;
and now we want to connect them with
some farm operations. Truth is of little
interest in this life unless we can use it for
our own benefit or to nelp our neighbor.
Let any farmer take an acre of land
and do the very best he knows how TO do
in growing any particular crop, say Indian
corn. He can grow 100 bushels Of shelled
corn on this acre The land is worth, we
may say, 800 per acre. Then the account
would rim ahOut Tins.

Rabbits In New Zealand.

It has been calculated that, from the
number of times they breed, the number
OF their progeny, and the early age at
which the young begin to reproduce their
species, pair of rabbits will multiply to
the amount of million and quarter in
the space of four yearsl When the ex-
ceptional advantages which they meet
with in New Zealand are considered, In
the absence of enemies, the sparse popu-
lation Of the country, and the abundance
OF food which they can obtain, it is not
surprising that they have increased enor-
mously.
The matter, Indeed, Is becoming one of
very great danger to the welfare OF the
colony; 30 much SO that 9 special commits
sion has been appointed by the Govern
melt to inquire into the subject. Without
quoting an array of figures to prove the
harm which has been wrought in few
short years, it may truly be said that large
tracts Of rich pasture land have been con-
verted into veritable wilderness. The
sheep farmers and cattle-raisers find their
occupation Is becoming impossible. The
yield Of wool Is falling OF 30 and 90 per
cent. In quantity, while its quality il de-
terioating. The lackof food has caused
many farmeu wAQipeed to kill Z. 500 ami
mas ont Of 1 stock Of 1900, to reduce
their stock 70 ! few hundreds, hardly any
Of which are flt to be killed. The mum

Total.

Here is the result of knowledge applied
to growing an acre of corn. One hundred
bushels shelled corn at sixty cents q
bushel would leave profit of eighteen
dollars per acre; while the value of the
manure is only partially expended. In
addition, the stalks are worth three dollars
per acre. In the portion of farm in
grass the profit is much greater per acre
where the management has been such as
to insure the largest yield. Now, when q
farmer makes up his mind to do great
thing in crop growing, and really gives
his best talent to the undertakingaapplies
his knowledge of business to tlieaAxperi-
ment, he is about sure to succeed, is he
notf Well, then, do not say that he does
not know anything about the business. 1t
is an aspersion upon bis character to hint
that he is rot bueiness man. Farmers
know how to do better than they do. II
this knowledge is so thoroughly applied
always, it is certain that every farmer
would largely increase his products; and
we imagine that it is not necessary 10
show that the larger the returns from par.
ticulsr crops the larger are the profits 81
farming. Farmers should extend thejf
business in this direction.
There is sometimes danger in extending
the size of farms, but never any in in.
creasing the yield Of farm crops. The
cost of running farm is not in proper
ton to what it produces, but in proportion
to its size or extent If you increase its
extent you increase the cost of operatinK.
Not 80 if you add 10 the per cent. per Gle
OF the yield. Then it is very clear, Is it
not, that the profits of farming depend on
the higher weld per acref To get on well

This is the time when new school houses
are being built, and are to be furnished.
There is great variety in the manufacture
of school furniture and supplies. At this
season of the year agents are active in the
sale of these articles, and of course, must
live on their profits. While we do not
act as agent for any company, or push
the claims Of any party, we try to learn
what is the best in all these and advise
upon the matter with those who call On
us for that purpose. There are sample
desks at this Office of several kinds and
circulars of many more, so that school Off
GERS can get information concerning these
and can order to suit themselves. More
than this, we can save any parties buying
these articles from 10 per cent. to 25 per
cent at any time.
