Passing Away.

Passing away; passing away;
The sweet summer roses are passing away;
Their beauty is wasted their fragrance has fed
And with'rng they lie in their damp, lowly bed
The fair, dewy morns in their spendor will rise,
The pale stars glow soft in evenings clear skies;
The cooling dew-fall, and the musical rain,
But these roses will brighten, all, never again
Passing away; passing away;
Bright hopes of my youth-how they're passing
away,
With the beautiful visions that gladden. my eyes
By daytime and nighttime, as sunlight the skies!
Oh, hope may come back to my sorrowful heart;
Bright dreams from their long-silent chambers
may start
But those of my youth may WOO all in vain,
For they meier will return in their beauty again!
Passing away; passing away;
Friends have loved-how they're passing away!
l have watched them 90 down to that cold,
solemn tide,
While the pale, silent boatman kept close to their
side;
Pve caught the dull dip of their deep, muflled
oar,
AS he bore them away to that echoless shore
And my heart cryeth out in its desolate pain,
But they meier will return to bless me again
Passing away; passing away;
Yet know of land where there is no decay,
Where the balmy airs filled with the richest
perfume
From sweet, fragrant flowers, and fadcless their
bloom;
Where the soul never gricves as it doth here be-
low,
Der fair, vanished dreams, DER hopes fltful
glow,
Where linked and forever islove's golden chain,
And parting words chill us, o, never again

"Speed the PtOsU.o
How Much Stock to an Acre.


Many interesting experiments have been
tried by our farmers at various times to
determine the highest feeding capacity of
an acre of ground, and some very remark
able results have been reported but pre-
cisely what the best attainable results are
is still an open question. Probably some
of our numerous readers can shed some
light ON this subject from their own expe-
rience.
Whether ten acres ofground of average
fertility will keep more or less than that
number of cattle, carrying them through
the year in good condition, is d question
of no little interest for it is closely relat-
ed to the prosperity of husbandry.
One thing at least is certain. If we take
what has been considered the average ex-
perience of farmers on this subject it will
be found to fall very much below the high
er results actually reached by the skill and
perseverance of some of our practical men.
And here comes in the point we wish to
come at. Why do the average results of
our husbandry invariable fall 80 far below
the achievements of some of the leading
men z Of course we cannot expect that
all will rise to the level of the highest
But why do so many fall behind, and so
far behind2 If one man by adding brain
power to his muscular force can make an
acre support two or three cows, is there
any sufficient reason why another should
require two or three acres to support one2
We should like to receive from farmers
some account OF what they have acom-
plished in this direction and from what
particular crop or kind of food an acre can
be made to produce the greatest amount
OF actual nutriment, or feeding value

Transplanting Evergreens.

The September number of the Gar.
dener's Monthly for 1874 contains On article
by w. G. Strong, of Momentum Hill nurs-
cry, Brighton, Mass, giving four reasons
for transplanting evergreens in late sum-
mer or in early autumn, from August 10th
to September goth. The fourth reason,
viz, that there is greater certainty of sue
cess in planting than at any other season
of the year, induced me to try the expert
ment the following year. On the goth of
August, | planted for Mr.. J. w. Sprague,
of this place, thirty Norway spruce trees.
A few days since, l examined the trees,
and found every one living and growing
finely, the increase the present season thus
far being about ten inches in diameter
and eight inches in height I do not as
sert positively that August is better
month than May for this work but l
would unhesitatingly advise those intend
ing to plant evergreens, to do it this sea-
son rather than wait for another May
But whether in fall or spring, let these
three things be attended to-: LIST. Select
small trees. Cd. Preserve as many of the
tibrous roots as possible. Sd. Cover the
roots so that they will not become at all
dry. Perhaps l should add, put whatever
manure you use on the top of the ground.
Josiah Hopes, in his Book of Evergreens,
says:
"Men of experience seldom desire large
trees, knowing full we'll the baneful effects
of transplanting large evergreens. The
lower branches shed their foliage, and are
apt to die, and forever after they present
pitiable sight. Young and healthy
plants, when carefully taken up and prop
erly replanted, are never subject to this
Disagreement, and are almost certain to
form handsome specimens. ~ ultisator.
