"SoWn in our Weakness"

"TlIat picture is immortal,' said
 n gentleman to Bonaparte, show. ling the result of the genius of a
 great master. "Immortal! how
 much longer will it last?" -Four
 or five hundred years,' was the
 reply. Bonapartc's answer. "A fine immortalityw showed what he
 thought of eternal life that wa. bounded by five hundred years. A
 clergyman told us lately of a poor
 involid, almost entirely paralyzed, {,
 who is in very truth, thongh by
 the world uuscen, doing immortal
 work. He can usc his lips, and he holds brush in his month aud thns raints texts from the Word Of life that go abroad with their mes. sage of heoling, winged by the yearLing love of the artist who must do something for God. When the fruit sown in weakness shall be Garnered in power, the Lord who is very pitifnl will assuredlv reveal blessings from these feeble efforts, to abide for all eternity.
 T wish coull do more," we say sometimes half fret fully, forgetting that if all other power be denied. we can at least tender 10 God a patient heart. Yet il is wonderful what power for service he merci- fnlly leaves even with the least among ns. We have in our mind the room of a private house which may be said to be truly consecra- ted to the Lord, and where strong men. perhaps above joining regu- lar "classcsn for Bible instruction, throng regularly to be told by q weak woman of the way of eternal life. The Master has need even of the feeblest. \ respectable man who was gradually sinking into drunkenness went one afternoon to carry his little crippled daugh- ter home from school, tho weather being wet. He turned into his ac- customed place at the public house bar, and was about to settle him self there with n glass, when inc felt tear fall down on his strong hand, and looking at the child he saw her face qniyering all over. while "Father-don't' seemed all her frightened lips could say He put the glass down and set out once more to carry the little erip. pie home. "I can't drink any more," he told his wife. That tear and that childish cry were used of God to strengthen him to resist the craving, and the helpless one of the household saved her father.

Figures on Fork.

An Eastern journal thus gives sn estimate of the cost of produc. ing pound of pork:
 It will take at least five pounds of corn fed to a pig in pen to make one pound of pork. When allowed to have all the grass it will eat, one pound of corn fed to n pig will make it thrive, two pounds n day will cause it to fattrn. The grass system is the cheapest and it makes the best meat.
 IL will be noticed that by allow. ing all the grass the pig will eat three pounds of corn in every five are saved on each pound of pork. II this Is true, we should feed more grass and less corn There is no. thing 10 prevent grass being fed 10 the pigs in pens, as it can be cut and thrown to them. Corn and grass make better food than either fed alone. Al this season it should not be no object 10 fatten pigs. All that Is required Is 10 keep them growing, and for that purpose wc would recommend middiug, in. stead of corn. which should be re- served for later perlod.-ES- change

The old adage in regard 10 "a little farm well tiled" being the most productive, applies 10 all sorts of farm operations. When spread over a large surface or ex. tent, a certain quantity of material, or work, iS necessarily weakened, just as a piece of metal broadly beaten out becomes weak by it's attenuation. It is this fact which explains the failure of all the big things in agriculture. The great wheat farms; the large herds and flocks; the special poultry farms, all fail to meet the expectations of their owners. And farmers and others who read of this or that profitable venture on a small scale and figure upon that success as a basis for larger operation are sure to come 10 gIicf. X small flock of sheep, or ofpoultry;a well cultivated field; dairy that can be well managed; any thing in fact that can be kept well in hand and under control is certainly protita- blo when rightly cared for, while too large ventures are just as cer- tain 10 faiI.-N.

their patient is doing very well and his
wound is not considered a very serious
one. If there is any moral to this

do so, and If IL troubles you, take IL
