THE FARMER

Whom The trees are wreathed with blossoms,
And the roptured, feathered throng
C.raet the sweet springs welcomed coming
With their adulating song;
In his field apace the farmer
strikes the burrows wide and deep,
r., his hand the golden kernels
Casting forth with generous sweep.
When the sultry sun of summer
Sbimmers down on all the land,
Through the days il tolls unceasing
With its soft and plastic hand;
Tolls with him to make the harvest,
Bringing fieecy clouds of rain;
And the fertile vapor rising
In the dew returns again.
With the sunshine he has labored
Till the autumn comes amain;
And he reaps the ripened harvest
Bending on the golden plain;
Autumn with her lap o'erfowing
With her gifts of all the year
And her song is sweet and tender
In her promise of good cheer.
When the winter rules the country,
Wraps the fields in icy sleep,
In the barns the stock is feeding
Horse and kline and heecy sheep
Snug within his happy palace
What cares he how wild it blows?
He enjoys the years completeness,
Summers sun and whirling SHOWS.
He may rest, for he has answered
To the worlds incessapt prayer
Give us bread, oh Lord, and daily
BY his toll and watchful care;
And the glad ships spread their pinions
With the harvest, east and west,
Where the hungry nations waiting,
Break the bread and call him blest.

PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY,

| The fifteenth annual session of the National
Grange Of the above Order was held in this city
! last week, and although secret Order the doors
were thrown open, and many friends of the Pa
| irons and other citizens were admitted during
the delivery of the opening address of the Master
of the Grange.
Colonel j. K. Thompson, of Washington one of
! the founders of the Order welcomed the members
to the old home and birthplace of the Order in
an eloquent address which was well received
The Order originated in this city, and the first
Grange was organized during the fall of 1867, and
with one exception all of the original members
were present at this meeting
S. II. Ellis, of Ohio, chaplain of the Grange re-
spOnded to the address of welcome, and in his
remarks he paid well-deserved tribute to the
founders for their action at the seventh annual
session, in turning over the National Grange
which up to that time had been solely in their
hands-to the assembled representatives of the
great Order which they had built up, with all
it's funds and advantages, and it's unequalled
organization which they had established in every
State. An act so unselfsh, so noble, and so un-
common, as the world goes, that it should ever
be held in grateful remembrance, and cause the
names ana ueeuS OF tnOSe truly worthy brothers
to be reverenced and held up as examples in the
homes Of all true Patrons all over our land
W. M. Blair, of Nova Scotia and Worthy Mas
ter of the Dominion Grange, of Canada, and the
accredited fraternal delegate from that BODY to
the National Grange, was then introduced, and
in short but most earnest and excellent address
expressed his great pleasure at being present, and
assured the National Grange of the fraternal feel
ings that existed among the patrons of Canada for
the parent organization on this side the imagi
nary national lines. He told of the good solid
progress in the Grange work in his Jurisdiction:
that they were sending the Grange and Grange
principles with the new settlers to their far west
ern plains, and it was aiding not only in build
ing up their vast territory, but was forming pub
lie sentiment and greatly aiding in the legisla-
tiOn of the whole country in the interests of the
whole people.
Mr.. Blair's remarks met with hearty applause.
He is an able speaker, member of the Dominion
Parliament, and is we'll qualified and worthy
of the Order.

J. j. Woodman, of Michigan, was an able and

twenty-five inOculated with the attenuated or
tanned organism, and ear-marked, and the others
left untouched A fortnight afterwards the whole
number were inoculated with splenic fever. On
the twenty-five previously inoculated with the
attenuated bacillus, no result followed as to the
others, within fifty hours the whole number
were dead of splenic fever. A similar public test
undertaken in July exhibited precisely similar
consequences Since then, many thousands of

VINES ON WALLS.-The opinion is somewhat
prevalent that vines Oh walls encourage, and in
deed produce dampness Close observance, how
ever proves the fact that walls covered with close
growing vines are even drier than where no such
covering exists. The thicket Of leaves acts as a
thatch which throws off rains and keeps the walls
dry they have also the further effect of prevent
ing walls from being heated by the sun, so that,
in the case of dwellings where the walls are COW
cred during summer the rooms are perceptibly
cooler in consequence. The ivy, (Hedera He1ir),
in climates suited to it, is probably the finest
sisency of its foliage has been objected too, mas
much as it prevents the sun from warming the
walls during clear days in winter A vine which
possesses an abundance Of foliage in summer and
is deciduous in winter is therefore to be preferred
and we have no knowledge Of any plant which
will meet these requirements so well as AmpelOp-
sis ticuspidata, Japan plant, sometimes called
Japan ivy, also, (for some unexplained reason),
known as Boston ivy. This plant is nearly allied
to the well-known climbing plant, the Virginia
creeper, or American ivy, which adorns and en-
livens the landscape with its rich autumn colors.
The Japan species has exceedingly delicate foli-
age when young, although the leaves become
larger and are supported upon longer footstalks
with age; but at all times it clings tenaciously
to wallis requiring no helping support as its ten
drills clasp the slightest inequality or projection;
the short tendrils end in bulbous looking points
which adhere to objects as if glued or gummed.
Its foliage does not present the autumn brillian-
cy Of our native species, although it occasionally
becomes well colored. 1t also appears to have
tendency to lose portions of the shoots during
winter but blanks of this kind are speedily COW

Tennyson can take a worthless sheet

make it worth $4,000. That's genius.
Mr.. Vanderbilt can write fewer words
on a similar sheet and make it worth

United States government can take an
ounce and a quarter of gold and stamp
upon it an eagle bird" and Twenty
Dollars" That's money. The me-
chanic can take the material worth
$50 and make it into a watch worth
500. That's skill. The merchant
can take an article worth % cents and
sell it to you for 500. That business.
A lady can purchase a comfortable
bonnet for $40, but prefers to pay 500
for one because it is more stylish.
