LA RESURRECTION.
Ignacio Diaz Caneja.

Gel primer dia de la Semana,
vino Maria Magdalena de maflana
al sepulcro, cuando aun era oscu-
70, y vi6 quitada ia losa. Y fue
eorriendo a casa de Simon Pedro
y al otro discipulo, d quien amaba
JESUS, y les dijo: Han quitado al
Senior del sepulcro, y no sabemos
donde 10 han puesto.
"Salio, pues, Pedro, y aquel
otro discipulo, y fueron al sepul-
Gro. " corrian los dos a la par;
mas el otto discipulo Sc adelant6
corriendo mas apriesa que Pedro,
y lego primero al sepulcro. y
habiendose bajado, vio los lienzos
puestos; mas no entro dentro.
Y lego, pues, Simon Pedro,
que lie venia siguiendo, y entr6 en-
el sepulcro, y vio los lienzos pues-
tos. Y ell sudario, que habia te-
nido sobre Ia cabeza, no puesto
con los ienzos, sino envuelto en-
un lugar aparte.
"Entonces entr6 tambien ell
otro discipulo que habia llegado
el primero al sepulcro; y VIC y
crey6:
Porque aun no entendian la
Escritura, que era menester que
Ell resucitara de entire los muer-
tos."
Hasta aqui el Eyangelista anna
do de JESUS, aquel a quien desde
el madero del suplicio habia dado
el Martir divine por madre a Ma
ria desolada. Cristo, cumpliendo
las Profecias, habia triunfado de

THE RIVER TIME.

oh wonderful stream is the River Time,
As it flows through the realm of tears,
With faultless rythm and musical rhyme,
And broader sweep and surge sublime,
AS it blends with the ocean of tears.
How the winters are drifting like flakes of
snow
And the summers like buds between;
And the years in the sheaf--so they come
and they go
On the rivers breast, with its ebb and flow,
AS they glide in the shadows and sheen.
There's magical isle up the River Time,
Where the softest of airs are playing;
There's a cloudless sky and tropical cline,
And a voice as sweet as a vesper chime,
And the Junes with the roses staying.
And the name of this isle is the Long Ago,
And we bury our treasures there;
There are brows of beauty and blossoms Of
There are heaps of dust, but we loved them
50!
There are trinkets and tresses of hair.
There are fragments of songs that nobody
sings,
And part of an infants prayer,
There's harp unswept and lutte without
strings,
There are broken vows and pieces of rings
And the garments she used to wear.
There are hands that are waved when the
fairy shore
BY the mirage is lifted in air;
And we sometimes hear thro' the turbulen
roar
Sweet voices we heard in the days gone be
fore
When the wind and the river is fair.
Oh, remembered for aye be the blessed isle
All the days OF our life, till night,
And when the evening comes with its beau
tiful smile,
And our eyes are closing in slumber awhile
May that "Greenwood" of sod be in sight

How common thing it is to hear
some farmers sheer and speak dispar-
ingly of what is called "book learning"
as applied to agricultural pursuits. No
man could become a competent lawyer,
physician, or minister, without "book
learning" on the subject to which he is
devoted, nor a mechanic nor tradesman,
a sailor or an engineer. In the direc-
ton of a specific education he should
have sufficient knowledge of geology
and chemistry to understand the COM
position of the soil he is to cultivate,
and'what plant-food it requires TO pro-
duce remunerative crops. at is a
fact. says Prof. Orcutt, (which is be-
yond controversy, that every farmer
who is ignorant of chemistry, works in
the dark and is liable to misapply his
labor and lose ALL" The mistake of
mixing quick lime with ammoniated
manures will suffice to show the impor-
lance of correct knowledge. Such in
formation, will show by paying results
that brain work is the best ally of hand
work on the farm Texas Farmer.

The Wheat Crop.

The month of June has mostly been
favorable for development of the wheat
crop, and the condition at present. aver
ages better than promises indicated a
month ago. Harvesting is progressing
in Tennessee, where there is consider
able complaint of rust, and a portion
Of the crop has been harvested in Ken
lucky, which State has also suffered
somewhat from rust, while there are
also quite fattering reports from some
sections as to quality and outcome Of
the grain. These States, however, as
now reported do not quite maintain
the LIST of May indication; our returns
average 70 for Kentucky and so for
Tennessee, as compared with 100 for
last years production. Very few sec.
tons in Ohio make a good showing,
but the average promise seems to be
better than some have argued, our re

Rotation.

A. L. Sturges in Southern Planter.
In recent number of the Planter |
noticed communication asking for in.
formation and advice in regard to rota-
ton, saying that he is inexperienced as
a farmer, has 800 acres of land, divided
intoseven fields, woodland not included.
Some of the fields in fair condition,
others poor. He wishes to adopt some
system of rotation and work intelli-
gently, with the end in view of i'm
proving his land. A very laudable
ambition truly. Would that every
farmer in the State thus situated would
make the same inquiry with the same
end in view.
Now my sympathy goes out for my
brother, and | lam quite willing to give
him my experience and advice, for he
finds himself in position where it
would seem to require the ripe expert
ence of practical farmer to ensure
success. But he can succeed if he pos
sesses the essentials to success, which
are pluck and perseverance, capital and
common sense. With these and the
adoption of proper system of rotation
he will meet with success; an(
the experience which he now lacks vii

system of rotation as usually followed
is quite too narrow.
No system is complete unless it in
cludes cow peas and clover, orchar,

l would begin the rotation by sowin

the peas in drills sixteen inches apart
at the same time drill in 100 or &c

is in fair condition, three.quarters of

begin to ripen, gather enough to ket

remainder and sow to wheat.
If the soil is light gray, or sane
and thin, apply 100 lbs. gypsum, Il
lbs. S. G. phosphate, 200 lbs. kahn

Indiana 70, the same as in May, while
Illinois averages about 80, reduction
of five points from the May returns.
In Missouri the present average is 60,

gan shows slightly more favorable, at

American capitalists are endeavor-
ing to introduce our grain,elevator
system in Russia, so far without sue
cess, though when this is done, and in
ternal improvements to aid grain trans
portation are added, the nation will
become a formidable competitor of
America in the grain market Of Europe
In Hungary, another large grain pro-
ducing section, the prospect may be
considered very favorable, and else

While, in the main, our exports are
of a kind that cannot be affected by
anything less than war or unkind legis-
lation of foreign nations, as in the mat
ter or restriction upon American pork,
our breadstuffs are extremely sensitive
to many natural conditions liable to
exert an influence during any season.
As fully eight per cent. of our exports
are made up of the products
of agriculture, it is a matter that mer-
its very careful study at our hands. 1t
is observed that since 1879 there has
been a marked decrease in the quantity
