TREE COFFINS.

An ancient burial-place was discovered
in Shelby, Eng, in 1857, and, at q
depth of six or seven feet, several coffins,
formed of the trunks of trees, split in
two and followed out, were exh umed
One of these, now preserved in the
museum at New York, contained the
skeleton of a woman; and near the neck
were lying seven beads, of graduated
sizes and oval shape. In the center of
the skull a small round hole was detect
ed, resembling the perforation in the
skull of Roman lady recently discov-
cred in an old cemetery at York. In the
summer of 1876, on the rebuilding of a
house in Shelby, some fifteen or twenty
other tree-coffips were disinterred. They
were closely packed together at a depth
of from five to eight feet; and, at the
head of several, an upright oaken post,
threesfeet high, was standing. In four out
Of seven collins examined, Eazel-rods or
twigs were found in the right hand of the
corpse. There is a record of similar rods
having been found in a cemetery at
1berfact, Suabia.

land is the best, and it should be as free
from grass rs possible. The reason for
choosing clean land will appear plain to
a man who has raised a crop. The
ground should be well ploughed and
made perfectly fine with the harrow
than marked out with shallow marks if
to be planted by hand, so as not to get
the seed too deep in the ground but the
best plan is to plant with drill The
stalks must be as close as FIVE or six
inches, o9spreyent the straw from be-
coming too heavy. OF course it can not
be drilled swith much regularity, but
must be cut out with the hoe to the
right distance when small 1t is ike
sorghum, grows slow while sm.lll, and on
most land it is positively necessary to
hoe the grass out, which gives a good OPP
portunity for cutting out to the right
distance. After this Is done the cultiya-
ton is similar to that of corn. When
the seeds begin TO fill the straw will
bend over from the weight, and to pre-
vent this the full force of the hands
must be put to break the stalks ever, say
ten to twelve inches from where the
straw grows out, or more properly the
head. The weight of the seed will then,
ENHANCING down, keep the straw straight.
Now comes the busy season and the
time when labor and care viii add to the
value of the crop. The green straw be-
ing altogether the most valuable, it is
important that it be cut before it turns
red, and dried in the shade To do this
a shed is necessary, with shelves on which
10 lay it, say six inches deep; and enough
hands be employed to cut the crop be-
fore any or much of it turns red. The
seeds if stripped by means of a machine
made fer the purpose, with two cylinders
between which the corn Is held in hand
fuls. The process is very rapid, only an
instant being necessary to knock the seed |
all off. The corn is baled before being /
sent to market The price is very fuc- !
tuating, running from sixty TO two hun
dred and fifty dollars per ton.

There are two critial periods through

form the principal reasons why approach

these tendencies, farmers should provide
a patch of blue grass, according to the
amount of stock kept, and turn the
stock on this portion of the day, when
other grass begins to fail. This, hold.

will be added to the ability of tho animal

Mr.. Moody, in an address at the Chi
cago tabernacle, made rather a practical
appliclSenof the parable of the sower.
He said that he did not believe everv
protestation of a change of heart which
he heard. Men came with the crowd
and acted with the crowd, but the seed
was only in subsoil, and a good stiff
breeze would bear them down like stub
bic. He knew one who sang hozannas
and was very much worked upon; the
seed had fallen and sprung up. But
there was lack Of soil; there was lack
of depth. He knew this, because the
man owed his landlady board bin

utterly neglected. He believed in the
