mangold-seed, the land rarely being got
thoroughly clean in the autumn, and
dung enough being hard to be come by
at that season. Cross-plowing the
winter-furrow or grubbing it is OPP
tional; 1 prefer narrowing along and
across first, then cross-plowing, and
the grubber last of all; then, if your
land is in decent condition, it should
require no further implement than the
harrow, and perhaps the roller, to put
it in proper state for drilling up.
The cross-plowing should be of the
same depth as the winter-furrow, and
the pillow will go all the more steadily
If it takes up half an inch of the sub
soil; more would be dangerous. The
land is now ready to be set up in drills,
but we must not forget the prepara-
ton of the seed. always steep man
gold and carrot seed, as thus: tie the
seed up in a bag, soak it in water for
twenty-four hours, hang the bag up to
drain, keep it in a warmish place till
the white germ shows, and then dry it up
with plaster, sand, or charcoal in pow
der The quantity of seed required is
about four pounds per acre. The
stepped seed cannot be sown by the
seed-drill the manner of treating it
will be seen further on.
Mdnures for mdngolds. must by
no means ignore the fact that man
Colds are of all root-crops the most dainty
in the choice of food. If there is any
thing certain in the principles of sound
farming it is that mangolds demand
nitrogen in a freely accessible form.
We are not growing sugar-beets for the
factory; what we want is large crop
of bulky roots, the bigger the better,
though, no doubt, the moderate-sized
root is analytically preferable. Ac-
cording TO my experience, superphos-
phate has hardly any effect on man.
Colds; potash is only wanted on thor
oughly exhausted light soils; and a
moderate dose of sulphate of ammonia,
with good, but not extravagant, dress
ing of dung, will produce the largest
possible crop of mangolds. Some
where about the year 1916 Mr.. Pusey,
then president of the r. A. S. of En-
gland, tried experiments in mangold-
growing on land which, two years be-
fore, was said to be incapable of pro-
ducing even white turnips. remem-

not penetrate. The manures were used

He sang that his love wns beyond compare

And told her lie wasn't FAR wrong.

For his string snapped like pistol shot.
He told how he loved her DER and DER,
With passion In every word,
In sonRs that I never know before,
Aud sw eeter ones ne'er were heard.
But the night dews lOosened his guitar strings
Aud they buzzed out Of tune like crazy thinss.
He sang and he played till the moon was high,
oh, sweet was the love.born strain;
And the night caught up each trcnulous sigh
And echoed each awect refrain;
But laughed when n beetle flew down his throat
And choked In = snort his highest note.
She liked u, and did-just $3.50;
was GLAD to hear his lay;
even echoed him, soft and low.

And the pulses auickening thrill,
When Joy lived with us. and beauty smiled.
The whole wide world was before us then,
And never our Spirits failed,
And we never looked back, but ever on.
Into the future We sailed.
Ever before us the distnnt bound.
Whose dim nni exquisite line
Alone divided our ent;h from Heaven,
Our life from . life divine.
Now my voyage Ia well nigh over.
And my etAncheh spnrs are gone

Across her brow: and in her eye,
Though gone Its light and 5rilliancy,
WAken quiet brightness sweet
And recollections nunberless;

But touched with that Rweet pencefulness
With which the Lord of Heaven dnth bless
The souls He loves most tenderly.
And she would wipe away tho tear
That very slowly filled her eye,
And wandered gently, bright and clear,
On to her wrinkled cheek. and there

Well trusting evermore that He
