The Boy and the Farm.
G.. III. SwITZER.

The average farmer boy seems to
think that he has a very diSagreeable
and monotonous life, and therefore en-
vies the city boy of his own age his
pleasures and pastimes. He considers
farm life drudgery, and sees no real
pleasure in it. Consequently, many
country boys early make up their minds
to leave home and seek fortunes amid
city life. This too often leads to their
ruin. Why does boy want to GO to
the city Z? From careful observation
we conclude, in great many cases, it
is the fault of the fathers. Many faith
ers forget that they were once boys
themselves. Because they have no de-
sire for amusements, they think their
bows should take the same interest in
the farm work they do, regarding Il
musements as fit only for lazy people or
loaferS. We know from actual eXper-
ience that at no time is there no work
to do on the farm. We also know that
the farmer lives an independent life,
and there is scarcely any time when he
cannot lay aside the duties of the farm
for day or two, Il he so desires.
Boys should be taught to love the
:arm, not by compelling them to work
hard from early morning Till late even
ing, week after week, without any
time that they may call their own.
Give them day occasionally tor araih-
BILE in the woods, Or for any harmless
pastime. In this way the boys will be
led to see for themselves that farm
ing is an independent, lite and they will
take an interest IN the farm.
Every farmer should take one or
more farm journals, read them, and en-.
courage his boys to do the same. No
farmer has mo time to read paper"
In this many farmers are in error.
They work hard and wonder why they
are net more successful, when often
they are working in direct opposition
to their own interest. Successful
farming requires "head work" To
encourage the boy to stay on the farm,
give him IA young colt, calf, or even a
pig, and let him feel that he owns an
interest in the farm. If the father
gives his son a pig, let the boy do the
best he can with it and have the mon-
ey which it brings when marketed
He should never blast the hopes and
cause him to despise the farm, and his
father too, by pocketing the money
himself, calling it ''son's pig and faith
er's hog" By allowing the boy to
make little money for himself, he can
be taught the real value of money as
we'll as the principles of liberality.
Tue boy who scarcely eyer has cent
to call his own always envies those
who haYe and when he gets little
money he is almost afraid to part with
it uLder any consideration, for fear that
he will never get any more. Thus it es-
tablishes miserly tendency. Fathers,
study this subject carefully. Give the
boys day for themselves occasionally !;
let them earn little pocket money;
give them a young animal once in a
while, so that they will feel interested
in the farm Snch meaSures will cost
you nothing in the end, and may save
your boys

Locating an Apiary.

A New York State correspondent of the Bee
Keepers Magazine holds that it is generally a
poor location for Bookkeeping where bees have to
go eastward for pastureage, as nine out of ten of
our thunder storms are from the west, and where
the bees are out a mile and the storm comes up
quickly it usually meets the heavily -laden work
ers before they reach the hive, and many are
thus destroyed. In some instances where bees
go eastward for their supplies and are caught in
a storm late in the day. which is followed by a
cold evening and night and the next day be wet.
it is believed that oneeighth if not more, of the
bees in a colony perish.
The correspondent thinks this is one Of the
greatest of all drawbacks in bee-keeping, and
one which is scarcely ever taken into account
What has been suggested may account for the
reasons why some localities are worthless for
Bookkeeping. An apiarist in such a locality may
do his best and never succeed; his colonies are
all the time weak in spite of breeding, while
another, two or three miles away, meets with
great success; his bees getting warning of the
storm. have a mile the start of it, and only have
to sail ID with the wind.

in its weekly review of the British grain trade,
says Owing to the continued wet weather, it
will be impossible to make an early delivery of
sound native wheats. For this reason the
market points to no such big drop in values, as
was expected during dry weather The sales of
English wheat during the past week were 81, 538
quarters at 32s 3d. against 81. 1872 quarters at
Bis Id during the corresponding week of last
year Foreign wheats were steady because of
the bad weather. The trade was slow and
tedious. Seven cargoes arrived, two were sold,
twelve were withdrawn, and six remained
three Gillian. two Californian and one Ore
gonian. Despite the large arrivals, English
wheat is firm. although slow of sale. Flour is
in large supply and fraction cheaper. Grind.
ing barley is Sd lower. Beans, peas and corn are
unchanged. Oats are dull and Sd cheaper.
Linseed is cheaper; Calcutta seed is quoted at

How to Keep Cider Sweet.

Farm. Field and Fireside.
Pure sweet cider that is arrested in the pro-
cess of fermentation before it becomes acetic
acid, or even alcohol. and with carbonic acid gas
worked out, is one of the most delightful bever-
ages. The following Is recommended as a scien-
ti6c method of treating cider to preserve it's
sweetness: When the saccharine matters by
fermentation are being converted to alcohol, if a
bent tube be inserted air-tight into the bung,
with the other end into pail of water, to allow
the carbonic acid gas evolved to pass off without
admitting any air into the barrel, beverage
win be obtained that is fit nectar for the gods
A handy way is to fill yeur cask nearly up TO the
faucet when the cask is rolled so that the bung
is down. Get a common rubber tube and slip it
over the end of the plug in the faucet. with the
other end in the pail Then turn the plug so the
cider can have communication with the pail
After the water ceases to bubble, bottle or store
away.

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
No Boom in Trade, bnt Healthy Movement
In All Departments.

In All Departments.
INDIANAPOLIS Sept. IS.
There is no boom in trade, but all along the
line there is healthy movement and a cheerful
feeling manifested. Retailers have stocked mp
literally for the fall and winter trade, and re-
ports from them are that they do not feel that
they have purchased more freely than the indi-
cations would warrant Some papers are talk
ing of boom" in business, but there is no
ground for it, and conservative business men do
not desire it, because such season of specula-
ton as the term indicates is one of unnatural
activity, which is sure to be followed by sea-
son of stagnation and depression. It is believed
that the country quite generally is in condition
to purchase merchandise. Labor, the great con-
sumner, is very generally employed at fair conn
pensation, the products of the West are sure Of
a quick market, with some improvement in
prices, and summer travel and like minor causes
have given many people the means with which
to purchase On the whole, the situation con-
tinues to be full of encouragement. Locally
there were no changes calling for men
ton, but prices in the main were
firm at quotations of last week.
In groceries, coffees lead off with tendency to
higher prices. In the produce markets eggs
lead, and further adance of two or three cents
per dozen may be looked for before the close OF
the week. The wool market Is active, with
prices firm. The Boston Journal Of the llth
says: Last week we reported much frmer
market and greater activity in wool, through the
prospects of higher range of prices at the Lon
don auctions. This advance has now been real
lied, and the market here, as consequence, Is
higher on some grades and firm for ALL Manu-
facturers have anticipated this rise abroad, and
ever since Thursday last have been free pur-
chasers at full prices. Holders have now become
indifferent sellers, and manufacturers are hold
ing back unwilling, as yet to pay the higher
prices asked. Both are waiting further develop
ments 1t looks, however, as though manufact-
urers would have to come up TO the views or
dealers. as all the indications point to firm
market for some time to come Holders are con-
fdent that the low-water mark in prices Of wool
has been touched, and that from now on there
will be hardening tendency. The greatest eff
feet is witnessed in fine woods; which have ruled
low for some time past, comparatively speaking.
This week they have taken turn upward, with
an advance on some grades of about one cent per
pound Still. all qualities of wool have felt the
iusp riting news-fine, medium and coarse--and
they are all held with greater frmpess."
