No invention of the nineteenth century has worked greater revolution in household economy or conferred more of benefit on humanity than the sewing machine.
 The first productions were crude and un- couth in the extreme, and was reserved for American skill and ingenuity to bring forth machine of any practical value.
 In order to appreciate the great advance ment which hus taken place it is only neces- sary to compare one of the machines built dur- Ing the infancy of the invention with one ot the latest improved "Light-Ranning New Home."
 In the manufacture of this machine old ideas have been discarded, and in accordance with the progressive movement of the age new mechanical principles have been substituted fail to commend themselves to the most casual observer.
 For all kinds of domestic and manufactur- ing work the "New Home is unequ led.
 All the really good points contained i'll other machines have been utilized in It's construction Many new Improvements and devices have ale 1 80 been added. the result (which is machine as nearly perfect as it is possible to make one For simplicity, darabity, ease of manage. ment and capacity for work, the Light-kun. ming New Home " has no rival. ant the happy possessor of one may rest assured that he ol she has the very best the world affords.
 All who send for the company's new illus trated catalogue, and enclose their advertise ment printed on another page,) will receive set of advetiseing novelties of value to carc collectors. Their address is, New Home Sew ing Machine Go, 30 Union Square, New-York

THE demand on our space continues, therefore we devote part of this column to ''The seasons prospects as reported by the New England Homestead of May Il. It IS & summary of 250 reports from all sections of New England, re- garding the seasons prospects
 '"These reports says the Homestead, ssindicate generally hopeful outlook for New England agriculture for the season of 1883. The spring is back ward, but stock has wintered we'll. Prices of working and fat cattle are high consequent upon the firm value of beef. Mich cows are in unusual demand, as increased attention is being paid to the dairy. The good prices obtained for cheese and the recent dullness in the butter market will lead to the manufac- ture of more cheese than usual this sea- son. The butter market, which has been overstocked since January, IS now recovering, and the prospect for the summer is more encouraging.
 Grain and grass have wintered re- markably well, with favorable weather. The hay crop will be the largest for years. Wheat is but little grown. There was more rye than usual. Farms, crops and produce have generally sold at good prices and continue firm, with the exception of butter and tobacco.
 The tobacco market has improved since the adjustment of the tax and tar if agitations. The acreage in the weed will be somewhat reduced, with large proportion of Havana. In the Con- necticut valley a large amount of tobac- co land will be planted to potatoes. The acreage of field corn will be con- siderably increased, especially in Maine, and more will be grown in the Connect. icut and Housatonic valleys. Raising sweet corn for canning purposes as well as tomatoes, squashes, etc, is also a growing industry. Much more sowed corn for fodder will be planted than ill previous years, largely to eke out dry pastures in August.
 Native-born help is scarce, and readl- ly commands S20 to S30 month and board. Raw Germans and Swedes from Castle Garden are being more largely employed than ever before, the usual wages being SIP a month and board. There is an almost utter dearth of girls for farmhouse work.
