Farmers, Helm.

1t is now a recognized fact that the
successful cultivation of the soil is both
a science and an art. A high degree of
scientific knowledge is not only requisite
to determine the character of the crops
that shall be ia sed on different qualities
of land and to preserve the strength and
fertility of the SOIL but great skill is de-
manded in the art of planting, cultivat-
ing and securing the crops. Ignorant,
unskilied labor is as Improbable in
farming as it is in the mechanical in
dustries. The demand of skilled farm
help is as great in some other sections
of the country as it is in the Southern
States. Experience has demonstrated
that skilled farm help is not to be found
among the majority of immigrants who
come to this country. The working
classes of foreigners, unless they belong
to some Of the mechanical industries,
have no aptitude for any special pur-
suit. For digging on the railroad, in
the ditch or canal, or for street labor,
where only physical strength and en-
durance are requisite, they do very
well; but when it comes to working on
the farm they are incapable of any in
telligent assistance. They first must
learn by experience, and the details of
farm labor are not to be acquired in a
single year. Yet this class of labOrers,
Notwithstanding, expect to receive the
wages that are paid to experienced farm
hands. What is wanted everywhere in
this country are practical farmers. And
there is no reason why there should be
a scarcity of this class, any more than
that there should be a lack of workmen
in any mechanical branch. 1t has al
ready been shown in these columns that
the remuneration of this branch of labor
is equitable as compared with other in
dustries. The inducements are in every
way as desirable. If farmers sons
themselves would only understand this,
| the lack of skilled labor for the farm
would in some degree be mitgated.
But let young men generally be taught
to believe that labor on the farm is as
| honorable as any other employment,
and even more pleasant and desirable
than the majority of industrial pursuits;
that all the skill and knowledge they
may acquire may be put to profitable
use in the science and art of agriculture,
and that constantly they will receive an
| increased reward for their experience
and industry, and the great scarcity OF
skilled help for the farm will soon cease
to be felt. Philadelphia Record.

for the sake of the woman he loved. He
saw the wire Of one of the lightning rods
not foot away from the window. May
be il was strong enough to hold his
weight. But could he 20 through the
hell of fire beneath him? It seemed
death To venture. 1t was certainly death
to stay whe e he was Lois had called
him. He would make a wild effort 10
save himself.
He leaned over and grasped the rod
and swung himself over the window
sill, and slipped down, down, down.
The rod blistered his hands, but he
chung to it. The flames billowed up all
about him. but he held his breath and
slid down, down, down! The last he
remembered was that he was in the
midst of a whirlpool of fire, with the
thought in his brain that he was always
going down, down, down!
The first thing he remembered after
that was a wOman's face bending over
him and a wOman's tears dropping on
his face, and then a woman's kiss was
on his lips, and woman's voice said
brokenly:
"Oh, Dick! poor, noble. brave, dear
Dicl1p' And he saw Lois above him
and thought he had got to Heaven.
They told him he was hero. Lever
son came and took his poor, wounded
hands in his and told him he had saved
his life, and that he should do great
things for him to prove his gratitude.
And he did.
Aad Lois is satisfied with the choice
she made.

Pulled His TalI.

The Portland (Oregon) Sunday
Mercury tells the following story of q
cougar conflict, and the daring deed OF
a courageous woman in her husband 5
defense. The immense forests in the
neiohbOrhoOd of Yaquina Bay are filed
with cougars, bears and other ferociOus
wild animals that, when driven by
hunger, sometimes seek the settlements
COR food.
A few days ago, q farmer named
Scurry, residing a short distance from
Elk City, was attacked by large cou-
gar while he was at work on his farm
near the house.
The beast made a desperate fight,
knocking the man down before he could
defend himself or use pistol in his po-
session.
Seurry was growing faint in the
deathly struggle that ensued, when his
wife, who saw the attack from the door
of her cabin, ran to his assistance, and
without stopping to consider her dan
ger, seized the brute's tail, and by main
force dragged the animal from his an
ticipated dinner.
Scurry leaped to his feet, and before
the cougar could renew the assault,
struck him with the sharp end of the
mattock he had been using, killing him
instantly.
Mrs. Scurry kept up well, but when
there was no further need of any exer-
ton on her part, she tottered and fell
s'all of heap,'' as her husband said.
He escaped with painful scratches and
an ugly bite in the shoulder.
They have dressed their assailant's
skin, which now makes a handsome rug
for the pioneers best room.

The cure in this case was to carry the
chimney higher. When the wind was
inclined downward to the chimney at an
angle of thirty degrees and upward, there
was down-draugbt, and the maximum
up-draught was produced by wind
inclined upward at about the
same angle. The simplest thing to
prevent wind blowing down a Chin

In that case a vertical or inclined wind
favored the draught, and the effect of a
wind blowing through the I tube was

WHERE WE WERE BORN.

you'd know the place where we were born
Not by the old we'll standing 10y,
Nor vet by fields of waving corn
hich You might see in passing by,
Yet you would guess il, night or morn
me dear old place where we were born!
You'd know it. for in all your ways,
ON country road or village street,
Through lengths and lengths of summer days
, on never saw place 50 sweet
As ours in May dcws, morn or night,
When apple trees are blossomed white.
For round and round on every side
These trees in friomily group ng grow;
You could not ind or far or wide,
A place so circlcd round, know;
Toward ris ng sun and closing day
They stand in w0tchInan-iike array.
The ancient orchard on tho slope
is first to catch the warm Spring sun;
It's trees are aged beyond hope,
An yet they blossom every one;
Aud such odd apples ue'er we're seen
As t8li upon ~ shady green.
And all along the dear old lane
They arch their branches overhead,
And in breeze or shower " rain
They scatter petals white ana red.
We Id orr little aprons high
To eaten tn sweetness tluttcring by.
And whom the Autumn tints were gay
Upon the landscape Everywhere,
In sckless heaps the appIcs lay;
VIC heard them dropping here and there
Beneath the blue, benigntut sky.
'Ihe aspirations that we knew,
Our vivid faucics running wild,
our learning OF tho false and true
seemed, somehow In the ght and gloom,
To hold breath apple bloom.
And now when May comes yearly round,
And decks Inc apric trees again
With blossoms sweetest to be found,
sometimes my toars drop down. like rain,

About the home love so well.
