Whal Men Need wives For.

It is not to sweep the house, make
the beds, darn the socks, and cook
the meals, chiefly, thata man wants
a wife. Ii This is all he needs, ser
wants can do i. more choaply than
a wife. If this is all when young
man calls to see a lady, send him in
TO the pantry to taste the bread and
cake she has made, send him to in
spect the needle-work and bcd.mak-
ing, or put broom in her hands,and
send him TO witness its use. Such
things are important and the wise
young man will quickly look after
them.
But what the true man wants is
her companionship, sympathy, and
love. The wayof life has many drea-
ry places in it, and man needs a com
panion to go with him. a man is
sometimes oyortakcn by misfortunes;
he meets with failure and defeat, trial
and temptations beset him; and he
needs one to stand by him and SYM
pathize. He has some hard battles
to fight with poverty, enemies, and
with sin; and he needs woman that
when he puts his arm around her, he
feels he has something to fight for;
that will help him to fight; that will
put her lips to his ear and whisper
words of counsel, and her hand to his
heart and impart courage. All
through life, through storm and
through sunshine, conflict and vic.
tory, through adverse and tavoring
winds, man needs a woman's love-
The heart ycarns for it. A sistcr'sor
u mothers love will hardly supply
the need.

cent letter on the subjec. Of narrow
euape railroads, goes into some IN
Treating calculations, which show
.ha. If Inc railroads Of the United
Stats, down to the end Of 1861, had
been bull. on the harrow-gaage, the
saving In first cost would have been
s4S000O,OC0; the annual interest OF
which is, at six percent, s2S,SUU,UVE
that the annual saving ON hauiage
would DO SlO0,S00,0G0,-in all an
annual saving to the people Of the
United States Of Sl29,GO0,0OO. He
shows, further, that a much greater
saving is in question for the future;
for, he reasons, provided the whole
country is to be as well furnished
with railroads as the State Of Ohio,
there will be u total length Of 1867
500 miles Of railroads; and the annu-
al saving on this length OF roads GU
the narrow guage system would be
S5l7 ,540,515; which would pay Off
our present national debt in about
FIVE years. Moreover, he shows that
railroads ON an average, add ten dol
lars an acre to the value Of lands
within ten miles of them; the mar
row-guage roads Gun be afforded in
districts where broad-guage roads
could not, to an extent which it is
moderate to call $4,000 miles; which
would add to the value Of land Dor
dering these roads sS,800,000.
"Eyen if we substract q large mar
gin from these figures to allow for
speculative estimates, the remainder
demonstrates 4 saving in money so
monstrous That is actually scarcely
within our comprehension"

Agricultural Notes.

Many suggestions have been made
with the object of fastening and pro-
noting termination, According to
some experiments, this object is ac-
complished by the application Of a
moderately strong solution of potash
or soda to the seeds. Weak solutions
of chlorine gas in water have also
been recommended. IL is alleged
that camphor has wonderful in
iluence in fayOring the termination
of seed, and that, unlike turpentine,
which has been employed for the
same purpose it is never even when
used in excess, hurtful.
10 England they have adopted ii
horse Shoe made of cowhide, and
known as tho Yates shoe. Itiscom-
posed Of three thicknesses of cowhide
compressed into steel mould, and
then subjected to a chemical prepa
ration. 1t is claimed for it that it
lasts longer and weighs only one
fourth as much as the common iron
shoe; that it will never cause the
hoof to split, nor have the least in
furious influence on the foot. 1t re-
quires no caIk; even on asphalt the
horse never slips. The shoe is so
elastic that the horses step is light
or and surer. 1t adheres so closely
to the foot that neither dust nor wat
er can penetrate between the shoe
and hoof.
A Danish agricultural journal rec
ommends to those who wish to pro-
vide themselves with a supply Of
ice the following simple means Of
increasing the thickness of ice dur
ing mild winters: Long and intense
cold is necessary to. produce coat
ing of ice of more than two or three
inches thickness, upon a surface Of
water of any considerable extent.
But if hole is made in the ice and
the surface from time to time cover
cd with shallow layer Of water,
even moderately cold weather will
suffice to freeze this water, and by
repeating the experiment, ice Of ten
inches or foot in thickness is OBJ.
tanned without much difficulty
The Danish journal therefore propos,
es the use Of portable pumps to be
placed into the ice holes for the pur-
pose described.
To preserve apples, pack in boxes
or barrels elevated from the cellar
floor, with n layer of dry sawdust at
the bottom of each box or barrel;
then a layer Of apples, placed out Of
