MISCELLANEOUS,



He does well who does his best;
Is lie weary let him rest
Btothersl | have done my best,
] am weary-let me rest.
After tgiling on In vain,
Bnflled. yOt to struggle fain;
After toiliug long to gain
Little good with mlckle pain,
Let me rost. but lay me low,
Where the hcdgcslde roses blow;
Where the little daisies grow,
Where the winds a-Muyiug go:
Where the fOotpath rustics plod,
Where the brec1e-bOwed pOplars nod:
Where the Old woods worship God,
Where His pencil paints the sod
Where the welded throstle sings,
Where the young bird tries his wings;
Where the wniling plOyer swings,
Near the iunlets rushing springsi
Where, ut times, the tempcst's roar,
shaking distant sea and shore,
sun viii rave Old BnrnesdNle DER.
10 be heard by me no morcl
There, beneath the breezy west,
Tired and thankful, let me rest,
Like a child that sleepcth best.

are wished, breed the best saddle
mares to Excel He has more o.
fthe points of a good saddle horse
than any stallion | know in the
Valley. He has all the style that
can be desired. with speed and ac-
equal 10 any horse in the State. II
is a fixed fact that a colt takes its
gait much more from the dam than
the sire, and is much more likely
to inherit the form of the sire than
the dam. Therefore. if good saddle
gaits are desired, you must look
mostly to the dam for them, and to
the sire for form. There are some
Telegraph mares in this county who
are naturally formed travellers. II
they were coupled with Excel you
might expect with almost certainty
race ofhorses of remarkably firm
saddle gaits with much of the style,

thoroughbred running horse. Ex-
eel is the property OF Senator f.
Lewis, and is by far the best horse |
ever saw him have. Any one who
will carefully examine the horses in
Harrisonburg on Courtday will
certainly come to the conclusion
that our system Of breeding has not
been good one and we cannot be
much hurt by change. Compare
the average sales Of the Norman
horses in Illinois with the average
sales on the Harrisonburg market,
and Illinois will nearly double ours.
When | used to live in Illinois, be-
fore the war, the general stock of
horses was below ours. 1t is the
Norman and Clydesdale blood that
has caused this increase in Value
We can improve quicker and faster
than Illinois has done, for we have
a better class of mares to start with,
but we must lay aside our preJudices
and adapt ourselves to the present
modes Of doing things. Pay a few
more dollars for the get Of a colt,
and to some extent divide the risk
with tine owner of the fine horse we
use, for we cannot get the owners Of
the valuable horses to let them out
on any other terms. The plan OF
insurance has gone out of fashion,
and we can only accept the situation,
as we have done in several other
disagreeable things since our little
unpleasantness with our brothers Of
the North. GEO. CHRISTIAN,

Shall an Orchard be Seeded

This is a question that has long
been discussed and plenty of advo-
Gates have been found for each
side. Mr.. William Saunders in a
paper read before the Potomac fruit
growers, has handled the subject in
very practical and intelligent
manner. He says; AS to the
treatment of apple orchards we
know that when they are establish
ed on light gravelly or sandy soils
they require periodical applications
of manure, that the ground should
also be kept loose by shalluw plow-
ing and afterward to be surface
stirred with the harrow or cultivator
all of which is requisite to main
tain proper degree of fertility
We have learned that to SOW grass
on the surface of the orchard plan
ted in such soils is simply the first
step toward the destruction of the
trees so far as regards the frui;
bearing capacities. Of course we
are now considering ordinary con-
dition and management, for it is
quite practical, merely considering
it as question Of possibility to so
enrich the surface OF even the
lightest of soils as to oviate neces-
sity of further surface culture. On
the other hand we may imagine the
case Of an orchard placed in con-
dition of things very much the
reverse Of the one we have consider
ed. In this the soil is a strong
rich loom, perhaps with preponder-
ance OF clay in its composition, and
that the trees are growing vigorous
ly and for some years have been
making great quantity of wood
and but very little fruit. When a
case of this kind occurs we know
that in order to produce fruitful
ness we must, by some means,
weaken the growth, and the most
available means is to cover the
orchards with grass, This will
have tendency to check the growth
of the shoots, and as a consequence
favor the production of fruit. This
as in accordance with the general
law that whatever tends to weaken
plant favors the production OF
flowers and fruits, and whatever
tends to the luxuriant growth of
leaves and branches is untavorable |
10 the production Of fruit There
ore it is that the question as to
whether orchards should be kept in
grass or cultivated like corn field
Jan not be answered with regard to
orchards in general but when the
question is applied to any particular
orchard it admits of definite an
'wer, the condition Of the trees land
IoiD indicating what. the answer
will be.
