Business for Boys.

SuS1ueSS 1OT Boys.
A Western Burial correspondent thinks
it easily possible so to treat the boys as
to lead them to like the farm life and
suggests the following process:
"Give a boy calf, colt, chickens or
other stock, and have him understand
that whatever he makes by faithful at
tendance shall be his own. If he is
careless or Indifferent let him suffer the
loss, but take pains to show him what
he might have made had he been more
faithful and dilligent A boy who will
take care of litter of pigs, feeding and
watering regularly and caring for in
every way, if he is told that when they
are first placed in his keeping that one
of them shall be his own for his work,
he will take the greatest interest in the
task.
''The field, the garden, the orchard
and the culture of small fruits, afford
ample variety for differences of DISPOSE
ton. And, by the way it is we'll that in
nearly every farmers family these differ
ences are found; since the various inter-
ests to be looked after in we'll regulated
rural homes need on this account their
several specialists. But whatever the
inclination of boy may be he should
be fairly and honestly dealt with, and
taught to see and realize it in his own
experience, that there is profit in we'll
managed farm work.
'Treated in this way he is instructed
and practised in actual business, and
surely this is no small advantage Be-
sides, he is made to feel that he has an
interest in the farm and the home,
other than that of mere obligation to
stay there. He becomes conscious of the
honor which attaches to business and
ownership. AS he grows older he is led
to find in the occupation of the farmer
ample scope for the display of the best
executive or business qualities, and he
will scarcely fail to see the superior adj
vantages and pleasures of a peaceful
country life"
There is nothing novel in this plan,
but it's educational influence in the right
direction can scarcely be overestimated.

You cannot fail to have good brown

make a stiff batter with warm water put

piece of a yeast cake about the size of a
hickory nut, or one large tablespoonful
of yeast, a pinch of salt; mix with a
spoon; do not try to knead it; heat your
bread tins, butter them, and put the
sponge in; when very light bake in a
moderate oven. It usually requires
little more time for the brown bread to
rise than for white.

Reorganization OF a Publishing House.

The Fowler 81 Wells Co has been incorporated
under the laws of the State of New York as
joint stock company, for the prosecution of the
business heretofore carried on under the firm
name of Fowler & Wells. This publishing
house was established by the Fowlers the we'll
known phrenologists, in 1885, and since the
death of her husband, which occurred in 1875,
it has been conducted by Mrs. Charlotte Fowler
Wells, the widow of Mr.. Samuel K. Wells, who
was at the time Of his death the proprietor of
the business. Mrs. Wells is sister of the
Fowlers and has been actively connected with
the business since the Office was first opened In
New York, and makes the, present change to
relieve herself from care and to insure the con-
tinuance OF the business in its present form.
At the election of officers Mrs. c. +. Wells
was elected president. Mr.. Nelson Sizer who
has been connected with the office as examiner
for thirty years or more, was elected vice.
president, and has charge of the professional
department Mr.. I'll. s. Drayton, who has been
the editor of the chronological Journal for mar
years, was elected secretary, and continues in
the same position as editor; and Mr.. Albert
Turner, who has been connected with the house
for twenty years aud is well and favorably
known TO the trade, was elected treasurer of
tho company and business manager, and there
will be no change in the nature or management

good, his foot began to nlortify and he could
not be saved He was tald he could not re-
cover, and, having calmly made his prepara-
tions for death, fell asleep trusting in the Lord
Jesus Christ.
Among those who left the hospital about
the Goth of October, was George Moreland,
of Indiana He bad been there since the
Goth of February, - eight months, - badly
wounded in the thigh and side. / received
letter from him recently, stating he had
never fully recovered In this same ward in
which he lay SO long, death had claimed
victim from every bed except his, and from
some of them several. There were only fifty
nine deathssin the hospital in October.
On the last of October and the LIST of N0vem-
Der they began to bring in the wounded from
Atlanta. Among them was Henry Potter, now
of Washington, d. Cwho was wounded through
the right knee at Jonesboro', about the first of
September. His leg was not amputated until
May, 1865 The beds were soon all filed again,
and some were laid on the floor. A number were
brought in dead, having expired on the cars.
Others died soon after reaching the hospital
The weather was damp and chilly. As yet
there were no stoves in the hospital, and it was
difficult to prevent those who were very low
from suffering from the cold. Hot drinks had
to be made for them. To one gave some warm
tea at dinner time. / told him / was fearful
he would be no better. He thought otherwise,
not realizing how very low he was. About two
hours afterwards / went to the same ward
again. He had died in the interval and had
been carried out, and another patient was In
his place.
There were one hundred and ffty-three
deaths in the month of November in this hos
pital. People in their comfortable homes can
form no idea of the suffering there was i'll that
hospital at this time. The patients weary,
exhausted, suffering from sickness and wounds,
all night long would lie there in those dreary
wards thinking of loved ones far away at
home, while they, the victims of that cruel
war, were suffering and many of them dying
there No one but God knows the anguish
the death pangs-they suffered who sealed their
patriotism with their blood.

New version-To be sung at the Shiloh Reunion.
We're tenting tonight on the old camp ground,
No picket-lines thrown out,
With peaceful trust in Southern hearts
That circle as about.
CHORUS
Many are the hearts that were weary at night.
Wishing for.the to cease
Now, many are the eyes that look with delight
Back to the dawn of peace;
Tenting tonight, tenting tonight,
Tenting the old camp-ground.
We're tenting tonight on the old camp ground,
The mingling gray and blue,
All bitter memories laid to rest,
In graves of comrades true.
Caorus-Many are the hearts, &c.
We're tenting tonight on the old camp-ground,
One flag above all
May that old starry banner bright
The fathers deeds recall.
CtoruS-Many are the hearts, &c.
We're tenting tonight on the old arnp-ground,
One country now and ever;
No civil war, no foreign foe,
Shall cer our Union sever.

We CLEAN the following from results of the
Ohio Experiment Station: "There could be
observed no difference in the size of the pota-
toes where small potatoes, whole, were used as
seed, and where large potatoes, whole, were
used
The best development of size was obtained
on plots where seedsgwas cut TO one and two
eyes, aud where the ordinary cut, fonr aud five
eyes to the piece, was planted fifteen and
eighteen inches between hills.
The test of fertilizers as top dressing point
ed obviously to the following conclusions: Good
hardwood ashes is one of the best fertilizers
that can be applied to the potato. They gave
an increase over the natural yield of the land
such as to make their use, at the rate of sew
enty-fve bushels per acre-at twenty-five cents
per busbel-protitable. A mixture of ashes and
plaster-ten parts by weight of the former to
one of the fatter-gave about the same results,
while plaster alone had no good effect Salt
must be used with caution anything over five
bushels to the acre did more harm than good.
Coal ashes had most marked beneficial effect.
