WATER TROUGH4 Of any de-
scriptiou made to order.
The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1888-08-02

Since manures are the nourishing ma
terial of plants, and other things beng
equal, the higher profit of the field de-
pends only and alone on the greater and
easily-extracted quantity of the same
found in the soil therefore, the more ac-
curate knowledge Of this substance, its
preparation, proportional use, and how it
may be procured on farm in sufficient
quantity, and with the least cost, is of
the greatest Importance to the farmer.
Bone dust moistened with little wa
ter in the course OF few days yields TO
water a considerable quantity of phos-
phate of lime, and this solubility rapidly
increases with the putrefaction of the gel
a,ine of the bone. Hence whatever
earthly phosphates exist with organic
matter, water will invariably dissolve a
portion, progressively with the decom-
position of the organic matter by fermen-
tation. This fact is of the utmost impor-
tance to agriculture.-Pairie Farmer.
The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1888-08-02

Poultry raising is not, even by the
most conservative Of mortals, considered
an unteminine " employment, and the
woman who takes it up need have no fear
that anyone will ever insinuate that she
is out of " woman's proper sphere. And
furthermore, poultry raising is one of the
few moneymaking occupations where
woman's work will bring just as much as
a mans when it is done just as well.
The woman who raises a pair of fowls
that score away up into the last half of
the nineties can get just as big price for
those birds as she could if she were a
man. Aud the people who buy eggs and
fowls for table use don't think of asking
a woman who raises market poultry and
eggs to take less than market price just
because she is woman. Success to you,
ladies, as long as you see fit to follow
the Lusiness.-Fanny Field.
The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1888-08-02

How much happiness children could
make at home if they would, for the
hearts of parents are everywhere full of
yearning desire for the love and obedience
Of their children. How bright and warm
the glow of enjoyment when parent sees
his child doing well ! 1t is ecstacy within.
But o, how sick and sore is the parents
heart, when his child is wayward and
selfish and obstinate and disobedient .

Astonished at the large sum, the min

"You are poor blind girl; is it pos

"True," she said, 81 am blind, but
not so poor as you think and can
prove that can spare this money better
than those that see."
The minister wanted to hear it proved.
