A Legend OF Cologne.

Adelheid Richmodus, wife of one of
the medieval senators who swayed the
destinies of Cologne, died, to all appear
ance, and was buried in the vaults of the
neighboring Apostelkirche. II was said
valuable ring could not be removed from
her hand, and was consequently inferred
with her. This excited the cupidity of
the sexton, who came at night to steal,
and, failing in his efforts to loosen the
ring, tried to sever the finger. Blood
flowed the lady revived, and sat up in
her coffin, to the horror of the thief. After
the first paralyzing shock of finding
where she was, she passed through the
gates he left open in his flight, and, still
wrapped in her winding-sheet, knocked
at her husbands door. The servants, on
looking out, recognized her, and rushed
terrified to their master to say they had
seen her ghost but on calmer reflection,
Adelheid continuing to knock and beg
plaintively for admission, they concluded
she was alive, and said so. Richmodus
declared the whole trick of their imagi
nation, and said he would as soon believe
his horses were transported to the attics
as that his wife lived. AS he spoke, the
clatter of hoofs above proved his mere
dulity rebuked by a miracle. The door
was opened to the shivering lady, who
told her story and was atfectionately re-
ceived, becoming " the joyful mother of
children" and dying in reality at an adj
vanced age. The horses heads carved in
wood, painted one black and one gray,
still look from the top window TO convince
the skeptic; and the street, Richmod-
strasse, is named after a much-enduring
woman.-London Society.

Grain and Hay With Bone and Ashes.

Mr.. j. M. Kendall, in the Maine Home
Farm "a model agricultural paper, by the
way), gives the following report of two
experiments in growing grain upon "run
out" land with bone and ashes as the
principal fertilizers, superphcsphate being
also used:
For the purpose of practically testing
our belief in the fertilizing power of
bones, particularly when applied for re-
storing worn out soils, in 1880 we pur.
chased an eleven acre lot of thoroughly
worn out field for which we paid 5000.
The quality of this soil was naturally
weak, a medium between clay loan and
so called pine land-the surrounding
growth being soft wood and white birch
the field lying nearly fiat and inclined
slightly to the south. When we under
took to restore and cultivate this field we
expected by judicious fertilization to OBJ.
tain sufficient results within the six or
eight years that the dressing was sure to
manifest itself, to hire all labor done on
the same, pay for fertilizer used, and
interest on the cost of land. For these
principles, if true, when further applied
would allow the farmer to be well paid
for all his labor and fertilizer, and inter
est on his capital invested. An accurate
account was kept of all expenditures and
receipts. As seen below we paid So per
day for blowing and narrowing; $l25 to
$3.50 per day for ordinary labor; $50 per
ton for bone meal and carriage three miles

that comes laundering along. Good,
whole-souled, companionable conductors ;
amt road in the country where the
passengers feel more at home. No passes ;
every passenger pays full traffic rates for
his ticket. Wesleyan house air-brake on
all trains, too; pretty safe road, but

River road; beautiful curves; sweep
around anything to keep close to the
river, but it's all steel rail and rock bal

it through, double tanks at every station,
and there isn't an engine in the shops that
can pull pound or run mile with less
than two guages. But it runs through a
lovely country; these river roads always
do; river on one side and hills on the
other, and it's steady climb up the grade
all the way till the run ends where the
fountain head of the river begins. Yes,
sir, I'll take the river road every time, and
no prairie dust blowing in at the windows.
Aud yesterday, when the conductor came
around for the tickets, with little basket
punch, didn't ask him to pass me, but
paid my fare like little man,-twenty-
five cents for an hours run, and little
concert by the passengers throwed in. |

But just here the long whistle from the
engine announced station, and the
brakeman hurried to the door, shouting :

The above named expense is approx.
mately divided as follows Labor, $500 !;
fertilizer, $3.50; land, $30O-an entire
cost of Sl050. The value of the first
years crop is $637 or sixty per cent on
the entire cost of all. The value of the
seed has not been included in this state
ment, it having been raised on the same
land from the six bushels mentioned, and
fertilized as charged in the account
Now the reader will please notice in the
items of expo nses of fertilization that the
first plot is fertilized with thirty bushels
OF unleached ashes per acre and the Sec
ond plot with only six bushels of ashes
per acre. This twenty acres would be
considered as dressed for from six to
eight years without further fertilzing if
hay were to be its product; but it will be
fallowed this fall and sown to oats again
another spring, at which time a light
dressing, say two hundred pounds per
acre of high grade superphosphate will be
applied.

Bliss Autumn Catalogue.

B. X. Bliss & Sons, "a Barclay street,
N. T., send us their autumn catalogue of
bulbs, small fruits and garden requisites,
beautifully printed pamphlet of seventy
four pages, with lovely chrome of six
choice lilies, nine by thirteen inches.
This catalogue is sent gratis to their GUS
toners, as well as their larger spring cata-
logue of seeds, et,. We are glad to take
this opportunity of saying that we have
regularly purchased of this firm for six.
teen years large amount of seeds and
other goods in their line, and have always
found them perfectly reliable, obliging
and liberal and, in the very rare cases
where there has been an error in filling
the order, more than willing to correct it
in the most satisfactory manner. There
is great advantage in purchasing of old
established houses like this of Bliss, which
buyers should never omit to avail them
selves of. We do not mean that the
newer houses are not reliable, but ex-
perience is an element of value hard to
over-estimate, yet to be had gratis in deal
ing with such old establishments as the
one referred to.

PRESIDENT WHITE of Cornell univer.
sity says that the idea of education for
business and for labor penetrates, pervades
and permeates the masses, and is "not to
be scolded out of existence by solid re.
view articles, or pooh-poohed out of ex-
istence by pleasant magazine articles.
Evidently the idea is rooted in our planet,
and will be hardly pulled up by narrow
literary men, who hold the time-honored
studies the most eminently respectable !;
or by narrow practical men, who disbe-
lieve in book Learning"

A BABY's SMILE.

As through the busy street pass,
Often In sun OF rain,
mark some pleasant household group
Behind q window pane;
The mother ia politely blind,
The father does not see.
But II I note baby there,
The baby smiles al me-
Dear slnless soul Of babyhoodl
She does not coldly wait
Toask about my bank account,
Or bonds. or real estate;
with small, soft face against the pane,
And dove-like coo the while,
She beckons with her dainty hand
And answers back my smile.
She does not scorn my glance because
She never heard my name;
Nor query of my social place;
Nor question whence came;
No tedious rule OF etiquette
Restraints her loving grace,
Or chills the winning smile that lights
Her lovely wild-nower face.
She knows me by that nameess sense,
That wisdom sweet and fine,
Which babies have, ere time has spoiled
Their innocence divine;
That strange, unerrng magnetism
Which some kind angel sends,
By which all snless things perceive
And recognize their friends,
Which draws the pigeons to my hand,
fearless and trustful still,
Which makes the social sparows crowd
My friendly window-sill-
The silent sympathy which makes

SEPTEMBER.

September sun beams brightest
When September storms have been;
And the shorter days seem lightest
with the longer nights between.
We hail the tranquil splendor
or the mellow autumn days,
As the matronly September
Now her passing tribute pays.
She crowns the fruitful season
With her garnered harvest store.
And gives us ample reason
Her prolonging to implore.
Dear autumn DAYS now hastlng,
why speed ye on 80 fast7
Fen while thy sweets we're tasting
We yearn to have them last
And thou wilt hear our pleading,
And linger on thy way.
Thy harvest moon receding
VIII lengthen out the day.
SO harvesters rejoicing,
Drive home the loaded vain,
And grateful tributes voiclng,
Snug store the golden grain Selected.

The above statement shows in gross
these figures, viz: fertilizer, $3.50, land,
5000, labor, $3.50, making the entire cost
5000. The value of the first years crop
was 5000; thirty-three per cent of the
cost of all combined, or fifty per cent of
cost of fertilizers and labor. The value
of the second years crop was about 800,
making fifty per cent of cost of all, or
and labor. The third years crop was
800, or sixty-six per cent of the en-
tire cost of all including fertilizer and la
Dor. A vigorous growth of aftermath in
the form of clover and herdsgrass nearly
knee high, the clover rapidly coming into
blossom stands on the entire piece at this
writing-August 14-unmistakable ev-
idence of vigor yet remaining from the
dressing used three years since.
In 1881 larger and better piece of
land was purchased both as profitable
pecuniary investment and to prove the
principle illustrated in the cultivation of
the first piece. This piece of twenty
acres, strong clay loan, being part of a
horseback " one half mile wide between
two high ridges one mile from summit to
summit, for natural drainage sloping south
and west, the land having been cropped
for thirty years, and at the time of pur-
chase was entirely run out. This was
plowed in the fall of 1881, summer fall
lowed, and narrowed with a disc harrow
during the summer and fall of 1882. The
entire field after this following was thor
oughly pulverized and dry from five to
seven inches deep. On the 18th of October
the same kind of fertilizer was applied, as
was used on the first piece, the only diff
ference being less number of pounds
being applied per acre and at cost less
per acre. The quality of the soil, drain
age and following making up for the diff
ference in the expense of fertilization.
Below is detailed statement of expenses
and receipts from September, 1881 to
August 10, 1888.
