Posts and Rails.

The weakest board or rail deter mines the strength of the fence.
 Land Tn square can be enclose with less fence than an equal area in any other form bounded by straight lines.
 The animals will certainly find the weak spots; but it is bad policy to have them show you where those spots are.
 The width of fence row is large item in the cost of fencing; even more important is what the fence row grows.
 Crops would suffer less from many a noXious insect or animal and it's progeny, were it not for the shelter of the hedge, or of the rubbish in the fence row.
 As the posts are the foundation of the fence, unless they are deeply and sohdly set, good material and fine workmanship in the superstructure count for little.
 Where the law is founded on the good sense to require | man to re- strain only his own animals, instead of all the worlds from his fields, much less fencing is required
 As fencing is one of the most con- siderable items of the farm expense, it is fruitful economy to make the fields of that size and shape which will require least fencing.

His reply states that my tree i> th" A5bor Djaboli. only two of which have ever been known --on" o1 lhc peak of the IIimalayas anj the other on the island of Sumatra Mine is the third. Professor Wordenhaupt says that the Arbor Diaboli and the plant known as the Venus tly-trap are the only known specimens, growing on the land, of those forms of life which partake of the nature of both the animal and vegetable kingdoms, although there are instances too numerous to mention found of this class in the sea. The Portuguese man-of-war may be mentioned, how ever, as one, and the sponge is the best known specimen of this class.

AGRICULTURAL.
Corn Cultivation.

Corn Cultivation.
 Presuning you have planted your corn as early as practicable in your latitude-say from February l5, in ! the farthcst southern localities, to Aprll i'll the more northern portions of the South-thc next thing to look after is thinning it out to stand. If plenty of grain was put in at plant ing, the chances are that you now have but few skips in your field.
 Unless It is quite badly missing, it will hardly pay you toreplant. Thin out to one stalk in hill, as soon as you find all has come up. Just after rain is the best time to thin corn, when the ground is soft, and long, narrow strip Ca barrel stave split in half, for instance), sharpened at one end, is convenient implement to | uprOOt the surplus stalks.
 When the corn is three or four inches high, run around it with mar row scooter or bull-tongue, running near enough to throw the soil well around the roots. If the land is badly seeded to grass and weeds, a good steel-toothed harrow is the best implement for the first cultivation running as near as possible to the stalk. Few implements equal a har- row for destroying grass and weeds. What is known as "side harrow, v is an excellent implement for blowing young corn the first tune.
 Subsequent cultivation is done with a double shovel, or riding cultivator if the land is free of roots, stumps and stones. Generally, three blow ings are sufficient to make corn crop, but if the spring is very wet |, the rapid growth of grass may require q fourth.
 A leading idea in the cultivation of corn (and, indeed, Tn nearly all crops), is to leave the roots unmo- tested. As corn roots grow near the surface, shallow cultivation is abso- lutely essential. What is known as "barring off, is not, by any means, to be recommended in corn culture. This mode of blowing leaves the corn standing on a narrow ridge or bar, :" from six to eight inches wide (often not more than four inches i'll width. ) The young roots are more or less dis turbcd by barring, and the hoeing of the crops immediately after, leaves Sc little dirt around the young stalks that many of them fall down. It is claimed by those who follow barring that, by thus throwing the soil from the roots of the plants, the sun is enabled to penetrate the earth and inyigorate tn e T growth. The contrary, and l conceive to be the correct argument, is, that by denud- lng the roots, the sun and wind dry the earth about them, and the cold nights of early spring do much to stunt the growth. The soil should always be thrown to, never from the roots of corn.
 One good hoeing is necessary in the cultivation of a corn crop. This should be given immediately after the first blowing, whether done by a harrow or scooter blow. If this first blowing has been well done, the hoe ing will be easy. Subsequent culti- vaton will consist mainly in keeping the middles clean, as the blowing which follows the hoeing will, as q rule, be sufficient to insure a clean drill until the corn is large enough to shade the ground. - Dick Naylor, in Dixie Home.

Tea tasting is curious business and
a man must possess not only a natural
aptitude for it, but must also
be able to judge as to general prefer
ences, for they must know what teas
the public are. going to prefer. The
way it is done is this. The tea faster
sits before a round table which swings
easily on its center and is groved to
hold some twenty or thirty little cups
securely. Into each of these cups he
puts pinch of tea from the different
sample packages and an attendant
brings in kettle of water that is
boiling hard and fills the cups. The
faster tries the one before him with a
spoon as soon as he can do so without
scalding his mouth, for the real flavor
of tea is only to be had from tea fresh
ly made, as the steam has carried off
much of the aroma by the time it is
allowed to cool. He tastes that one
carefully, pulls his table around far
enough to bring the next cup in front
of him, and so no until he has sampled
that entire brewing. He writes his
opinion on the packages and according
to that opinion the price is marked on
that grade of tea. For the price is
not governed entirely by the price
paid in China, Japan and India. Very
often the faster thinks highly of ship
ment that has been bought at the tea
fields at low price and it is according
ly marked up nearly double, while an
extensive cargo may be found to be a
disappointment and be put on a lower
grade and at lower price.

The Origin Of Lager Beer.

Fable says that one Gambrinus, a
fiddler, being Tilted by his intended,
went into the woods with a view of
hanging himself. just as he was
about to drop, weird old man in q
green coat appeared and bargained
with the disconsolate fiddler to enjoy
thirty years of great prosperity, but
then to give his soul up to the devil.
The fiddler consented, and his satanic
ally helped him to invent lager beer.
The emperor was so pleased with this
drink that he made Gambrinus the
duke of Brabant and the count of
Flanders. At the end of thirty years
the devil sent Jocko, one of his ENJOYS
to receive the soul, as bargained.
Jocko found Gambrinus busy drinking
lager beer, drank freely himself, and
finally became so drunk that he could
not fulfill his mission. So Gambrinus
was left to drink to his hearts content,
and he kept on until he finally turned
into beer barrel.-Ex.

He Didn't Size Up the Jury.

l heard jury story this morning.
A German had got into row with a
quarreling Irishman, who had long
been terror in his neighborhood, and
the Irishman had been left stone dead
on kthe field. A young and inexperi-
enced lawyer undertook the defense of
the German and just before the case
was to be tried he found, to his dis
may, that the jury was composed of
eleven combative looking countrymen
of the murdered man, the twelfth be-
ing German. This, of course, would
never do. A defense fund" was i'm
mediately raised and the German was
approached with all due caution and
the promise that if he managed to get
the accused off with a verdict of man
slaughter it would be worth $1,0O to
him; all he had to do was to stick to
that one word "manslaughter." Well,
the verdict came in manslaughter" in
great shape and the joyful attorney
for the defense couldn't get the 1000
into the Germans hands too quick.
Shaking hands with him after the
money was placed he slapped him ON
the back and said:
"You did nobly; you must have had
an awful time making those Irishmen
agree to simple manslaughter.
we'll, l should say So" replied

General Lord Wolseley.

Governor Lee, of Virginia, has
invited Gen. Lord Wolseley to te
present at the unwilling of statue
Of Gen. Leo at Richmond, Va, which
affords occasion for o brief reference
to the career of this celebrated British
soldier. Gen. Lord Wolseley was
born in Dublin, in the year 1888.
He is a member of an old and honor
able English family belonging to
Staffordshire. His father was a
Major of the British Army, and
young Wolseley determined tofollow
the profession ofarms. He entered the
army as Ensign when nineteen years
Iof age, and in 1852 was engaged in
the Burmese war, wherein he dis
played great courage and gained
notice in the dispatches. In 1854
ne was sent to the Crimea, where
he acted in the trenches before
lSabastopol as Assistant Engineer.
His gallant services received recog-
milton repeatedly before he was
severely wounded on August 80,
1854. For long time his eyesight
WAS endangered by the misfortune,
but he recovered and resumed his
position in the army. In 1857 he
was shipwrecked while proceeding to
China. He took part subsequently
in the suppression of the Indian mutt
ny, and was engaged in Hindostan
during 1858 and 1859. In 1860 he
served in the Chinese war. and was
present when the forts protecting
Peking were captured. Our threat
ened difficulty with the British
Government owing to the "Trent"
