The Season fer Education.

Every farmer should possess a few
books on the art OF agriculture, for read.
ing and studying during winter months,
rs we know that ii pays well TO seek hints
from the experience of other workers in
the same field. The farmer, who knows
the why's and wherefores of his success.
is better fitted for securing success in the
future. Now the principles of agricul.
ture are ever correct, and are continual
ly finding application in practice, AID
therefore each farmer should know what
they are, and how their application can
influence the crops. Then there are
a class of books telling of the how to do.
Such, each farmer should possess, and
read and study. tor it takes but small
hint OF better course to start the bet.
ter farmer into action, which shall
result in saving or making money. The
winter season should be the season fol
educating the man into thought, prepar-
atUry for action. The summer season
should mean the application of thought,
gained both from self-experience and
outside-experience, TO the soil and the
crops. The whole year should furnish
time for developing the powers of the
mind, which is TO control nature towards
working out the desire of the man. Now
farmers, don't be afraid of printers ink,
but patronize it. only using judgment
derived from experience, in interpreting
what is impressed upon paper.-Dr.E Z.

Old Times in Colorado.

The first settlers of Boulder came
here in 1858. In 1859 quite number
came and some sixty Lighthouses were
erected before 1860 stepped in. Of
these Lighthouses but few remain.
Christmas, 1859, saw jovial crowd of
dancers in one of these houses, window
less, we believe, at that time. The
hardy pioneers when after fun had it.
On the night in question two hundred
sons of toll and seekers of gold and
their fortunes and seventeen ladies had
assembled at the above-named place to
partake of the frontier terpsichorean.
Marinus G.. Smith was then one of the
beaus of town, and his dress-suit con-
sisted of a pair of pants made cut of
seamless sacks, and colored by the aid
of logwood. A fady now living in
town had an elegant dress made out of
flOur-sacks, and also colored by the aid
of lOgwood. There were few white
shirts in the neighborhood then, most
of the pioneers wearing woolen or flan-
mel ones. A man with white shirt on
was in style, and could dance with his
coat off; man without any could wear
a coat buttoned up to the neck. Coats
for dancing purposes did not seem to
be any too numerous, consequently the
pioneers helped each other out. For
instance, Alf Nichols had six white
shirts, which were all at that ball, and
the coats of those six white-shirted fel-
lows went to cover the backs of some
one else. When one fellowhad dance
he would loan his coat to another, and
then his turn would come, and so the
white shirts and long coats were dane
ing all night, and went around among
the 200 men. There were no wall
flowers among the seventeen ladies.
But they say the supper for the occasion
was grand affair. Wash-bOilers full
of coffee, great hunks of black-tdiled
deer, jack rabbits, fish, game and deli
cacies brought from the States in cans,
all went to make up glorious supper
-one that the partakers would like to
see repeated. There may not have
been much style, but the seamless sacks
and flour bags saw as much pure en-
joyment as does the finest and gan
diest attire of to-day.-Boulter (COt
Mirror.
