it applies on the farm in as great
measure as in any other business.
When you see a farm with no place
for anything and everything out of
place. you will no. have to wait long
to see-the owner lose his home and
farm under the sherif's hammer
We have been greatly panied at
times when we CHANGED to run upon
such a place as we have referred to.
1t pictures to our mind the oncoming
wave of adversely and a desolate
home. But little time is requir I'D
to restore the farming utensils and
all the paraphernalia of country
home, to their proper places after
use, and even little extra time spent
in this matter is the reverse of
thrown away. Tools left to the IN
impeded action ofthe elements grow
old with surprising rapidity, and if
farmers would but compute the
amount lost in time value, and that
by having the utensils exposed and
in disorder and comparing the fig
ures, we can see no reason why they
should not be entirely convinced

AS a politician significantly re
marked concerning the United
States Treasurv-''t there's money in
it." so it may with equal truth be
said there is money in whatever
leads to the better education of those
who have the management and cul-
aviation of the soil If there is still
in this country man who doubts
that education with view of ma k
ing farming more profitable, and an
nually increasing the fertility of the
soil, will not bear fruit equally with
the so called "learned professions, ;"
let him read and ponder over these
eloquent sentences from the record
of the transactions of the Highland
and Agricultural Society of Scot
land for 1874. From the excep-
tional educational advantages which
Scotland has so long enjoyed, agri-
culturists in this country have been
greatly superior in point of instruc-
ton to those of most other countries,
and it is also important to note that
the increase in the value of landed
property in Scotland has been ex-
ceptionally great. 1t was shown
about three years ago, from reliable
statistics produced by the Govern
ment, when the Irish land question
was before Parliament, that while
the rental of land in Ireland had
doubled during the previous hun
dred years, and that of England bad
| tripled. the rental of Scotland had
septupled itself in the same time
There has been then. in that space
of time, an increase in the value Of
landed property in Scotland of SOC
per cent, against an increase of zoo
per cent. in England, and 100 pei
cent. in ireland. This is a remark
BILE fact; and there can be no doub
that the explanation of it is to bt
found chiefly in the vastly superior
school system which Scotland ha
! posses sed, and in the intelligence
and enterprise which it has bee.
the means of developing among he
agricultural classes.

A brother in the Canadian Or fn-
ger says: Il think we, as Patrons,
should be more careful in selecting
the materials which compose the
orange than be so ambitious about
numbers, for bad stone, laid in

whole building. The principal
need of today is strict scrutiny of
the application for membership.

New York and Chicago papers
pretend 30 believe that the great in
crease tlis season in the down-rivei
movement of grain is sort of evan
escent boom that will die away quite
as fast it has grown up. What are
they going to do about it if it should
go on growing contrary to their ex-
pectations? New Orleans received
as much as I,355,74S bushels of grain
from ST. LOUIS IN one week recently
and it is quite evident that those who
try to belittle the river movemen
have got no way of meeting that
kind of argument in favor of the
great trade revolution but to call it
evanescent. Time was when it was
enough TO say that the grain would
get so hot IN going from New Or
leans to Europe that it was prepos
ferrous to talk about sending it by
that route. Now that the bugbeal
of hot grain had been exploded anc
the enormous shipments made VIZ
! the New Orleans route silence al
the old theoretical objections, there
is nothing left TO do but to pretend
that the movement is only Temporal
ry. 1t is conce ded that we are do

! very sure that we are not going t
keep it up. We are content to wal

Bones.

Both bone and the natural phos-
pilates require treatment before they
are fit for agricultural purposes.
All plant food must be reduced to
the liquid or gaseous form before it
can be taken up by the plant. You
may bury bone, and it will remain
as such for years before it will decay.
The phosphate is almost if not quite
insoluble in water. Therefore you
must add something which will alte'
its nature or structure before water
will Dissolve it. This may be done
n several ways.
1. Boil the bones, when they be
come soft; some of the animal mat
ter is thus dissolved. If now
you make compost of woods earth,
muck and some stable manure, and
pour on some wate-, the mass will
ferment, and along with other mat
ters the bone (which should pre-
viously be broken into small pieces
will decompose and become solu
BILE manure containing the coustitu.
ents of the bone-phosphoric acic
and lime.
2. The usual and most rapid pro
cess is to dissolve the crushed bone
by means of sulphuric acid, by
which an acid phosphate of lime i
formed which is soluble in water
and sulphate of lime, or gypsum
or plaster of paris.--Dr. NJ p Scott
