TOTAL ABSTINENCE SAVING WIAE TILL II
RIPENS.

There IS curious story about some native
wines which arc extensively advertised nova
days. and have only recently been put upon
the market. Dr. Underhill the well-known
grape-grower Of Croton Point died in 1871.
Some OF his heirs entertained temperance
views Of such extreme kind, that they wcrc
unwilling to allow the stock of wines then on
hand to be sold or any more to be made.
The grapes have sometimes been sent to
market, and sometimes left to decay upon
the vines. 1t is only now that the other heirs
have succeeded in arranging for a settlement
of the estate and the sale of the wines on
hand. Among these is wine Of the vintage
of 1864, described as n Sweet Union Port,
but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more
than any other European wine, and being
wholly unlike any other wine Of American
growth. Its purity. age and ncllowness arc
remarkable. and both physicians and vine
fancicrs have a special interest in it as the
Oldest native wine now accessible in any con-
siderable quantity. The whole stock is In the
hands Of the well-known wholesale grocery
house of the Thurbers.-N. Y. I,i6xne,
No0. I9 1877.
The above speaks for itself, but we would
add That this is the pure juice Of the grape,
neither d,zSsed. HQno,ed nor 7cate,cd,' that it
has been rpcncd and mcllowed by age. and
for medicinal or sacramcntal purposes it is
unsurpassed. 1t can be obtained from most
of the leading Druggists throughout tho
United States, and at wholesale from the
undersigned, who will forward descriptive
pamphlet, free Of charge. on application.

Cultivating Wheat,

We have become SO used to having
poor yields of wheat that good yields,
such as are reported from many sections
this year, startle lis, and the reports are
generally discredited by those who have
no stronger evidence than a newspaper
item. Many of these reports are exag-
gerated, no doubt, and story, it is said,
never loses anything by the telling, 50
that accounts coming correct from first
hands frequently swell to gross cXagger-
alton before they have travelled far.
We have received several circumstances
from readers for publishing such reports
One man writes that he don't believe a
yield of forty-fye bushels per acre has
been secured in this country this year,
and calls upon the men who make such
reports to prove their assertions. We
have no doubt that even greater Yields
than this can be proven, add, further,
we think that greater yields than have
been reported this year are possible. And
this brings us to the point we intended
to write about when We commenced,
that of cultivating wheat. We have
Just been reading an account of expert
ments made in England in dibbling
wheat and cultivating it like corn, with
the hoe. The seed was planted in drills,
one foot apart, and four inches apart in
! the rows. The spaces between the
drill rows were carefully cultivat-
ed until the plants had at
tanned sufficient growth to interfere with
the work. The result was eighty-four
bushels per acre. Another experiment
with rows six inches apart and four
hn Il
yield Of sixty-nine bushels per acre
Other cases mi ht be given in which even
greater success attended this method Of
growing wheat. We do not claim that
the cultivation alone produced these eX-
traordinary yields, but certainly much
was due to it, for we do not hear of any
such crops from ordinary culture.
Neither do we claim that farmers gen
orally, i'll this country, can secure such
results. But we do claim that a much
better average can be attained than we
have been getting We would suggest
that our readers test this method this
fall on a small patch Of ground-as square
rod or more. Have it accurately meas
ured, put it into the best condition, and
/ see what your land is capable of pro-
ducing. Every one Of your readers who
/ raises wheat can do this without any in
convenience. How many will agree to
do SO, and report the result next year?
! There is no nonsense about this matter
If it is beneficial to other crops to hoe
and cultivate them, why not to wheat ?
/ The principle is the same If it will pay,
we ought to know it, and we will never
find out without trying. You may be
compelled to cultivate the square rod
with the hand hoe; but if it is found to
/ increase the crop to an extent that will
/ justify the work, implements for cult
waiting by horsepower will speedily be

FARM AND HOME.
Things Worth Remembering


DECAYING vegetable matter about the
houses, around the walls and in the Gel
lar are prolific causes of diseases in the
farmhouse.
Ill treatment of cows, getting them
excited and then feeding the milk to
children, Is practice liable to be attend
ed with fatal results.
BAD ventilation, attended with I'M
pure ar, causes catarrhal and skin dis
eases or our animals, especially when
Obliged to breath the impurities of de-
caylng manure. Better ventilation of
sleeping rooms is urged, and more out
door exercise for the farmers wife.
1T Is estimated that fifty head Of poul-
try will make more than enough manure
tor an acre OF land-seven cwt of guano
being the usual quantity applied per
acre, and poultry manure being even
richer than guano in ammonia and fer
tlllzlng salts. No other stock will give
an equal return in this way, and these
figures demand careful attention from
the large farmer.
EVERY farmer not only wants shelter
for his hay, corn, and other grain; for
his cattle, horses, mules, sheep and
swlne-but he wants shelter for his
plows, harrows, cHltivators, reapers and
mowers, wagons, carts, etc. Has the
farmer good shelter for all these? If not,
now is the time and now is the hour to
provide this shelter. Lose no time in
doing it. The snow and the cold rain
storms are coming. Make comfortable
everything you have.
THE best way to market corn Is. an i'm
portant question to the farmer. 1t will
pay but very few persons, especially
those living some distance from market,
to gather, she'll and haul corn by the load
to some railroad station or steamboat
landing. 1t will be found far more
profitable to send the corn to market on
four feet, in the shape of corn or beef.
Whenever it is possible to feed corn to
good stock on the farm, that there is
always a demand for, it will pay best
OF course a man should use judgment in
feeding, as in everything else-for hardly
anything will pay when poorly done.

would properly explain the full circum-
stances of the affair they would come out
much better than they generally do.
James Grey, colored man of Madison
vile, Kentucky, was sentenced the other
day to the penitentiary for two years for
stealing a mule. When asked if he had
anything to say, James confessed that he
had stolen some tools and had taken the
mule merely to affect his escape, having
turned the animal loose when he thought
he was safe, and supposing that the mule
would return to its owner. The story
was believed, and the judge set the YER

AT SUNSET.

IEpon an ocean-sculpturcd rock,
which might have served tor Neptune throne,
AT eyentide we sat alone,
And watched the white-capped pillows flock
like living creatures to the shore
BEFORE the keen winds fateful breath,
With vain mpatience for the death
Awaiting for them DER and DER.
The sun had sunk behind the hill
Which, with a radiant aureole,
TranShgured like prophet soul,
In holy rapture seemed to thrill
The last rays tinged the eloud-veils gray,
Which gathered in the golden west
TO watch their king assume his rest,
And touched the white sails far away
Upon the oceans heaving breast.
The swallows circled in the sky,
Each narrowing orbit drawing nigh
The lOnged-for shelter of his nest
And wide-winged sea-fowl foated by
Or lowered DER their stormy home
Amid the wild waves angry foam
In such a scene, IL such an hour
There is a wondrous mystery
Nature is full OF sympathy,
Pervadipg ocean, sky and flower.
The rocks are not unmeaning things
Each crevice has its tale to TELL
And every pearly-tinted shell,
Which TO the swaying sea-wrack cings,
Shares in Gods perfect harmony.
The waves have voices, and the stars,
Drawing their diamond scimetars,
Help to unyeil the question: Why"
And still more friendship; hand in hand
TO sit beside the darkening sea
In heartfelt silence, deep and Tree,
Means richer depths to understand.
If Nature thus draws near to man,
And presses him against her breast,
80 that he bears the vast unrest
OF forces needful to her plan
Ii man can thus interpret God,
Ana feel assured that end is best
Where t. His purpose has progressed,
What can he fear beneath the sod?
