and bright days. sorrow and joy. 1t is the

HARDY CATALPA TREES.-A correspon.
dent inquiries what we know about the
:. hardy catalpa." There is but one spe-
cies of catalpa that we know of. Some
have believed they have u variety tina,
blooms little earlier than the other, and
this may be; it is also said that one variety
grows straighter than the other. We can
only say there are trees in Pennsylvania
four and five feet round, that have endured
winters when the thermometer indicated
twenty degrees below zero, and are IL.
straight as gun barrels. We dc not know
in what respect the " hardy 80 straight -
catalpI is harder or straighter than these
and should be glad to know.
There is one point worth noting. Ir
some situations the catalpt, in common
with the paulownia, chestnut and OF her
trees. dies back the first year, and often
he second; or if not dying right down,
loses its terminal bud, and this makes the
stem II lutte crooked. If we were grow
ing catapa for timber we should let il
grow as it will for two or three years anc
then cut clean 10 the ground, clear
straight sprout, ten fifteen or even tive ty
feet high being the result; and it goes on
without dying back after. We b I'VE seen
catal pa that IN Tile sprout fifteen feel
high and ten inches round in one season
when cut back in this way.-Gardner s
Monthly.
From evidence we have received thi:
summer we think there is IL vaiety some
hat disseminated in the west, that i.
hardy. The ordinary catalpa of southern
Indiana and Ohio. is not hardy north O
Alton, except IN special locations.
would seem. also, that there is a botanir,.
difference between the tender and hard,
variety. If so, we hope 10 be able t.

A Chat with Farmers.
No. 22.
BY AGRICOLA.

In my last article called the attention
of farmers wives, who have daughters to
educate, to the responsibility of parents in
training their daughters. l there main.
tanned that if these daughters were prop
erly instructed in matters pertaining to
malrimony, and properly managed during
their girlhood, they would not be likely to
indulge in clandesine correspondence, to
make unwarranlable engagements. or to
elope with young men of vulgar tastes
and doubtful character.
] will now suggest that parents have no
right to make matches for their
children. The children alone can properly
settle this important question. Whether
matches are made in Heaven or on earth,
l will not stop to inquire. In either case,
they must be based upon mutual love,
and tastes, or they will prove n
curse and not blessing to the parties.

SHoEING OR Nor SHoEING HORSES
1t is indeed syringe how long men follow
extravagant, wtsteful and useless habits,
simply because they nave always done so
Dne of these is shoning horses. a practice
not followed at all in the South Amaric IN
States and Mexico, and equally unneces-
-ary in this country, which has initiated
from Europe.
Nearly twenty years ago, the attention
of the writer was drawn to the folly and
uselessness of shooting farm horses. Pre-
vious to that time, he had paid ont about $l2
IA year per horse for this purpose, and had
almost always been troubled with corns
corks inlerferences and similar evils
Since the discontinuancc of the practice,
III the split hoofs have been healed up the
corns have disappeared with all other
troubles,a and no attention ut all is required
except an occasional trimming OF an outer
shell that has grown out uneven.
Perhaps it may be necessary to shoe
horses that travel upon the hard paw ii
streets of cities. But even this is doubt
tul. 1t is not ut all doubtful, if nearly
twenty years trial is worth any thing. thai
it is an entire waste of money and al
actural injury to farm horses, TO cripple
hem up by mailing iron shoes on their
feet II, in Pruirie Farmer.
