a wite'S influence! How often

so many do. The novelty of hav,

honeymoon begins to wane and

Two Sides of a Story.

Women are perpetnally eXhortrd
to make home comfortable. The
wife must greet her husband with
IA kiss, Tor a cross word might send
him to Il billiard-salOon or IA public
house for entertainment and ~relaXa-
ton. OF course, baby has been
troublesome-babieS always are;
but women have nothing else to do,
SO why shonld she complain if she
does have to hold him in her arms
all day? The mother must always
speak gently to the children, no
matter how aggravating they maN
be, aud even ones own children
are sometimes a trite annoying.
And so on.
But what of mems part in this
home-makingG Oh, their duty in
tt e house is to 'raiSe a brepzer in
it. They are too busy, TOO much
pre-Occupied, too impatient and
t%houghtless, and-it must be said
Of some of them-too selfish to do

ing of II happy home. The small
duties of life are not in their line.
They will fight for their homes, and
make slaves of themselves in their
business to maintain them; but
like the prOverbial man who would
die for a woman, but would never
bring up a SCuttle of coal, they
cant tell what their chi dren are
studying at school, who their mates
are, what they are learning of good
or evil, nor hardly anything else
that "A father ought to know con
corning his offspring. 1t is so san
a fact AS to spoil the satire when it
is said that many a father finds his
Sundays and holidays too few to
enable him to ''become acquainted
with his boys"
A father can contribute in many
ways to a happy home-life, for it
takes little to make children hap
py. Five minutes romp with them
renders them happy for an hour.
We hardly need say that a man
should set the example for the fam
lily in patience, cheerfulnesS, cour-
tesy, forhearance, and all the ami
able moods and graceS that are the
soul of home happiness. The sort
of men who display all their suav-
ity and p~olltenesS III the street or at
their business places, and save the
storms and sulks and ~Sourness, and
all the evil brood of fiendish dispo-
Sitious that they characterize by
the convenient euphemism of
'moods"-well, they don't deserve
home, wife, or children.

Concentrated Farming.


The advice to cultivate less and more
thoroughly, manure more, and improve the
quality Of crops. has been SO often given
in these columns,t that we fear the reader Will
begin to think we have 10 other Suing to
our bow However, this being the time
when the farmer begins, as ii were. anofl-
eryear's operations for bread. we cannot
refrain from advertising to these topics
again
Every indication and condition Of the pc
rod points to the necessity of concentrat-
ing the energies and means of the average
farmer on smaller area Of land, and CIV
ing TO that the most thorough culture and
all the manure possible. The profit of
farning-if profit is to be had-must
come from crops Of a larger yield and i'm
proved quality. There is but one obvius
way to secure this-that acre must not be
siinted in work or manure; both, ard an
abundance Of each, are essential
Most farmers labor enough to bring them

properly directed and concentrated. They
waste their energies on too large a surface.

rar.n preparat.on.

We notice that some of our
most experienced and success
fuI planters have commenced
active preparations for another
crop; many Of them are using
the most improved labor-saving
implements, such as stalk-cut-
ters, sub-soil plows, harrows
s. C., with which they are plac-
ing their lands in good condi-
ton for cultivation. In the Vi
cinty OF Seidels store corn
stalks have been cut to smith
Greens and plowed under as ma
nure. This is move in the
right direction, and if contin-
ued, can but result advanta-
geousIy to the farming interest
of Washington county. Too
little attention has heretofore
been paid by our farmers to the
important item Of manuring and
enriching their lands, which has
been made apparent by the
yearly decline in the produc-
ton of their soil. It now be-
hooves planters. who are de-
pendent upon the income of
their farm products for a liveli-
hood. to look well to the condi-
ton of the soil; see to it that it
does not deteriorate in fertility
and value, as it is only by such
watchfui care that farm lands
can be made to yield a profit
able income.
Experience has taught many
Of our best farmers that thor
ough preparation, early planting
and good cultivation. is the only
course. to be pursued bywhich
farming is made profitable; then,
according to this theory, our
planters should at once go
about placing their soil in pro-
per FIX for the reception of the
seed, Thereby assuring success

HENS fed on clear, sound grain, and on
clean grass run, give much finer favored
eggs than hens that have access TO stable
and manure heaps and eat all kinds of
filthy food. Hens feeding on fish and on
ions favor their eggs accordingly, the same
as cows eating onions or cabbage, or drink
ing offensive water, iinpart bad taste TO
the milk and butter. The richer the food
the higher The color OF the eggs. Wheat
and corn give eggs the best color, while
feeding on buckwheat makes them colorless
rendering them unfit for some cenfectiona-
