In Pompcii, recently, a very beau
tiful fountain was found among
the ruins. 1t is said TO surpass in
beauty any Of the fountains hitherto
dug up there. Venus is represented
as rising on a shell, with Cupid in
her arms. Other springs of love are
seen here and there in the waves.
while in the back ground appears q
nereid, or water nymph, near q dol
phin, with her arm thrown around
the neck of Cupid. In the fore
ground, on the shore, are two draped
women looking at the merry group
in the water.

Our vegetables are not as progressive
as they might be. Fruit culture has
been brought. upon the whole, to q
higher degree Of perfection than vege-
table culture, and there is still much
to be desired in the way Of growing
vegetables. We believe that nuch fault
lies in the manuring Of vegetable
grounds. Tho soil is allowed to get
too poor, and it is believed that vege-
tables can be grown anywhere. Many
vegetables require O rich moist soil, and
wherever droughts are feared particular
pains should be taken to give the earth
q moist and full manure. Those dried
up beans really lack moisture. 80 do
many carrots and turnips now in the
market. The carrots that we have ex-
amined have not half the sugar in them
they should have, and the best roots are
poor in color. Turnips are woody, and
that delicious vegetable, the kohl-rabi,
is as hard as stone, instead OF possess
ing moist, soft flesh. There is no
doubt about it, we want much teaching
in the growth Of vegetables, and those
small, green tomatoes tell their tale
also. There is not much encourage
ment given at fairs for the growth Of
vegetables. There would be no harm
if all agricultural societies, colleges
aud meetings were to give their very
best attention to the vegetable market.

Cornstalks as Fuel.

An Iowa farmer, who hes both coal
and wood on his farm, warns his house
with cornstalks, and claims Fiat they
make the best and cheapest fd he can
get. He uses large stove, and burns
the stalks in tightIy-bound bundles,
weighing about forty pounds each. A
bundle burns three hours without
flannel in an air-tight stove. The large
stove offers SO much radiating surface
that it does not need to be very hot.
Five bundles day, or 900 for the win
ter, suffice to keep the stove going and
the room warm. The farmer, Mr.. Rug
giles, says: 81 can bind up six hundred
bundles Of corn stalks in two days
alone. I couldn't chop the wood to
warm this room in week. Then in the
spring I have load Of strong ashes for
my wheat field, while my neighbors
have to cut up the same cornstaiks in
the spring to get them away from the
harrow. It makes me smile when
hear about these idiots up in Minnesota
who have fifty.acre cornfelds. and srill

burn cornstalks than cut maple wood

A wise provision OF nature SAYS the
Prairie Farmer turns a long continued
drought into one means of restoring or
supplying elements Of fertility Of which
many soils have been depleted by con-
stant cropping. Mineral ingredients
are indispensable to good crops. Chemi-
cal research has shown that an explana-
tion for failing productiveness Of soils
that were originally rich, is found in
many cases in the exhaustion OF inor-
ganic or mineral constituents within
the reach OF the roots of plants.
Manures and iudicious rotation of crops
are the expedients OF the provident and
intelligent husbandman ia restoring q
supply ing these ingredients which are
taken away more or less, BY what is re-
moved by the land in the shape Of farm
products. A very dry season may be
accepted as not utterly Improbable,
for by wise provision the ingredients
so much needed are brought up from
depths below the reach Of ordinary
farm crops, and in this way when there
is a long period Of hot and dry weather
q vast amount Of moisture is carried
from the earth by evaporation, and in
| the process Of capillary attraction, the
moisture, which has been stored by
previous rainfalIs and snow, il brought
from depths that vary according to the
texture Of the soil and the severity ol
the droughts. With the water comes, In
solution, a proportion Of the inorganic
or mineral constituents Of plants, which
are thus deposited within the reach Of
present or future crops that is, where
they are needed and win do the most
good.
