Farmers say that i, is difficult to hi

Farmers say that it is difficult to hire
farm hands at reasonable price the pres
ent spring. Workmen are demanding
$40 with board per month. which farmers
say they cannot afford TO pay. and will do
without hands before they will pay such
high figures. One objection to working
on farms by the month. which men urge.
arises from the fact that farm laborers are
expected TO work -. II, and sometimes
even 15 hours y day. They say man
who is employed outside of farming in
any business does not have to work but
10 hours day, and they can see no reason
why they should be obliged to work more
hours day than other men. The ac-
tivity of all kinds of business throughout
the State can hardly do otherwise than
make men scarce and wages high. In
this vicinity especially, large extra
force of men, many of whom would other
wise work on farms, will be required in
shipping the immense amount of ice
stored on the banks of the kennebec.

A Lawn.

The most attractive feature about anv place
is a neat. well-kept turf: should this be neg
lected. no matter how fine the flowers or clean
the walks, the lawn will lack its greatest
charm. If il has had a coat of short, rich
manure spread over the surface during win
ter, as il should have received the first work
in very early spring is to rake il carefully OF
without disturbing the grass roots, and then
give it thorough rolling, passing over the
entire area several times, crossing and re
crossing in different directions. In lieu Of
the above, SOW thickly bonedust, plaster. or
other good fertilizer, so as to induce a thick
coat of dark green grass. Scatter literally
over any bare spots mixture of green grass
and white clover seed, which will obliterate
any such nnsightliness before the hot
weather sets in. Start the lawn-mower
at work early, as it is fallacy TO
suppose it will weaken the sod to begir
too soon. Our next move should he to dress
up the walks. Trim the edges neatly and
evenly with sharp spade; and this ought TO
be attended to at least three times during
the season, as the effect will be spoiled if the
lines are not sharp and well defined. Should
the center not be raised slightly above the
two edges. coat of gravel must be applied
and then frequently rolled until quite firm.
Never let weed show here, and if taken in
time the labor will be slight. Trim the
shrubbery early, so as to induce dense mass
of shoots, and as a matter of course, a pro-
fusion of bloom, BY digging in around each
a little compost of short manure. we can pro.
cure better display during the Towering
season. See that the trees are properly
pruned that is to say, remove any unsightly
branches, and tie struggling shoots into
proper position. The flower beds must he
manured and carefully dug and well pulver-
lied at an early day, so that the planting sea-
son will find US all ready for setting out our
plants. These may all appear trifes, but
upon just such trifies depends the success Of
our lawns and dooryards--Croppte.

DEVINE TEXAS,


To the Editor San Antonio EVENING LIGHT:
The LIGHT, since the change of time on the
l. & G. NJ, is the freshest daily we get, and
more sought after. All it lacks Of obtaining
a circulation equal to some others, is its dearth
of county and Texas news. The way it ex-
poses public nuisances with gloveless hands is
encouraging for these degenerate times. We
believe in an unbridled press, be of what par
ty or sect it may. and though the LIGHT and
we are political antipodes, we can not help adj
miring its boldness in breaking loose from
party shackles whenever grand and great prin-
ciples are at stake. AS long as it continues
in a course which recognizes that we are all
fellow-ctizens of one republic, the throb Of
whose heart sends vitality to its remotest pos
sessions, SO long will it grow in favor. Our
political platform, independent of all organi-
cations, will ever be a devotion to those prin-
ciples las we see them)which insure the great
est good.to the greatest number. Let there be
no North, no South, no East, no West, but
one Union-of hearts and souls determined to
perpetuate for posterity the principles for
which so many patroits gave themselves as
sacrifice. Let US all seek the same noble
end, though we may use different means.
Our section has been lately blessed with
abundant rains, and the finest grasses cover
our plains. Crop prospects are fine, and this
will be good year for emigrants. The mon
otony of our town is at last broken by lively
Recorders court in which citizen, old war
veteran too, was fined two dollars and half
for exercising the marital privilege of whip
ping his wife, and this is free country!
One new residence to 60 up soon, being
built by our go-a-head merchant, J. L. Nix,
which is token of his business prosperity.
Herring & Bro, also speak of charging,
which argues we'll for their business. Devine
has acquired new resident, Mr.. Milligan who
is now partner of Jas Long, having succeed
ed Alex. Halsel. The firm is now Long and
Milligan, but 'twould not be inappropriate to
leave out the conjunction. New faces are
common in our section now. All prospecting
for future homes. Mrs. H. o. Mclean and
her charming little daughter depart to-mor-
row for Laredo, accompanied by her mother

The remains of the late James Quigley, who
was shot by his teamster, arrived here last
evening, and arrangements have been made
for the funeral obsequies to-day. The
mourners will assemble at two o'clock at Mrs
Cullins' residence. near the Sunset depot, and
at St. May's church at three, where the funeral
service will be read.
Mr.. Quigley was only thirty-fve, and died
on the 22nd inst. He had quarrel with his
teamster, whose name is not given, in respect
to wages. Mr.. Quigley had paid the man,
partly in cash and partly in checks, when the
man demanded he whole sum in cash. Some
angry words ensued, when the teamster sho,
him in the back, inhicting the fatal wound.

The stretch of sidewalk from the corner
of Romano and Acequia streets to the I'd ward
school house is one of the most ankle-twisting
pieces of walk in the city. That the owner of
the property which it fronts has not been sued
for damages before this is due to good luck
and to the fact that the people take the mindle
of the street. One hundred school children
pass over this walk every day, and they are
the children of the people, Messrs. Aldermen.
A dressing of fine gravel would remedy the
evil
