Strengthened and trained by toll and tears,
Born OF the bold, the brave and free,
\ nation with its hundred wears,
Its tributes bring, O Lord, to thee.
What blessing from thy Sovereign hand,
What trials have the century brought
How has this free and glorious land
Been loved, defended, led and taught
Our cautious feet by night. by day,
Slowly the upward path have trod.
God was our light and God our stay
In food and fire, in grief and blood.
So the brave OAK, in calm and storm
Spreads its strong roofs and boughs
abroad,
Grows grand in grace and >talwart form
Honored OF men and loved OF God.
The century ends, our hosts in peace
Hold the broad land from sea to sea,
And every tongue and every breeze
Swells the sweet anthem OF the free.
Still may the banner of thy love
Ger all our land in glory rest,
Our heaven appointed .Egi> prove,
And make the coming Centuries best.

GENERAL LEE AND STIMULANTs.-
From an anecdotal and personal article
on General Lee After tie War by
Mrs. Margaret j. Preston in the June
Century, We quote the following He
had the gentlest way possible of giving
counsel and administering rebuke. !
remember hearing him say, in pres
ence where such testimony was worth
more than dozen temperance lectures :
Men need no stiinuant; it is some
thing. l am persuaded, that they can
do without. When | went into the
field, at the beginning of the war, a
good lady friend Of mine gave me two
sealed bottles of very superb French
brandy. | carried them with me through
the entire campaign; and when | met
my friend again, after all was over,
gave her back her both bottles OF
brandy, with the seals unbroken. 1t
may have been some comfort to me to
know that | had them in case of sudden
emergency, but the moment never came
when | needed to use them"

ENEMIES NO LoNGER.-In the section
of the National Cemetery at Hampton,
Va, where Confederate soldiers are
buried, there is a headstone simply
marked "H. H, 2l19." Every
day. wet or dry, hot or cold, tall old
man, a Union soldier from the National
Soldiers Home, comes to this grave
under the live oak and lays flower or
cedar spray or leaf on the grave.
Who knows what memories are hidden
under this faithful tribute?

SAVING HOME MANURE.

Although the subject Of maLulcs has
been often aud ably discussed III your
columns. think more can be said on
the subject. esperiaIly as pertaining 10
the making and saving in Il good con
ditlou. DO we not see farmers IN all
part, Of the country buying large
quantities Of commercial fertilizers
for their different crops, much Of which
is nearly worthless, while they permit
large quantities OF the best fertilizing
material 10 60 to waste or lie idle in
their yards and pens year after year,
and then grumble at hard times and
their inability TO get along: Many OF
them are men of education, and con
sidered 10 be good practical farmers,
and there are such in this section Of
the country. | have often seen during
the rain and atterward. too-the very
essence of the manure in harvard aud
hog pens running away toward the
streams. when little care would suffice
to save it all, that it might he put upon
the land where it would do the most
good.
How often do we see a farmers
fowls roostlng upon trees, or under
sheds upon wagons and implements.
where their droppings are wasted and
the best Of all fertilizers is lost 1t
seems strange how men who have good
common sense. As most farmers have.
can let so much Of the best and richest
fertilizing material 90 to waste. !
have spoken to some Of these men and
asked them why they did not build
houses for their poultry and thus save
the droppings. and the answer has
always been it does not pay, and they
do not think the manure worth any
thing, or if by chance they do save it
they will mix wood ashes with it.which
every thinking man knows will ruin the
quality of both.
Why do not farmers try and save all the
rich material they can. which is so
pIentifully to be found upon every place.
where it has been accommodating for
years, as the washihgs from the hills
and yards to the low lands, in the fence
corners, under and around buildings.
etc. I! All Of this. if composted with
yard or stable manure, will be found
to be more profitable and economical
than spending ones money for those
fertilizers from which no profit can be
realized. do not wish to be under
stood as condemning all commercial
fertilizers. as many of them are good
and reliable, but wish to try and have
each and every farmer save all Of his
home material, which is cheaper and
better.-Cor. Country Gentleman
