An Unfortunate Text.

A man sixty years old was married
recently in small German town to a
woman ten years his senior. The
"youthful' bride insisted upon having
q great wedding. with the addition OF
a especial marriage sermon from the
lips of her beloved pastor. The groom,
after useless protestatlons, assented
to the wishes of his future better half,
His feelings, however, can be imagined
more easily than described when the
beloved pastor began his sermon with
the text: "Father. forgive them, fol
they know not what they do."-[Ncw

GOOD FARMERS GARDEN.

Last fall two gentlemen from q city
we're being entertained at the farm. Sup
posing 1t their habit to sleep late, they
were left undisturbed, while We farmer
folk went to the barn to milk the cows.
Coming back to the house, met them
returning from a stroll through the
garden, with hands full Of purple clusters
literally taking their fruit as the first
course. They expressed much surprise
at finding a garden in such good order
and productiveness on farm. 1t was cx-
planned that the garden is both necessity
and luxury. Living, as most farmers
do, many miles from market, we must
grow our fruit and vegetables or go with.
out. We showed that the plot was laid
out twice as long as wide; that all the
varieties of small fruit and vegetables,
except the asparagus bed, are kept in
rows the entire length of the garden. II
the row was too long for some variety,
two or moro kinds were planted in the
same row. About once week two men
with horse, cultivator and hoe work
from one to two hours, giving the sol
thorough stirring. A weed found in
an effort to go to seed is destroyed with
about the same energy with which q
housekeeper searches her domain for fly
or cobweb. The garden is in full sigh,
of kitchen door, the entrance ten feet
from it. No estimate has been made Of
the profit from this little piece of land
about sixty rods-but l am sure if the
whole farm were as productive, it would
be source Of good income. While
many farmers tables are supplied with
potatoes, turnips and cabbage, compare
lively few enjoy variety of the fine anc
more delicate vegetables, or a succession
of the delicious small fruits.-New Yorl

PUMPKINS.

Farmers whose experience with the
pumpkin has been confined to what it
will yield when planted among corn
would be surprised to see the crop that
can be grown when raised by itself, with
liberal application of the kind of
manure best adapted to it. James ]. H.
Gregory, Marblehead, Mass, in the Neo
England Farmer, says: The kind of
manure best for the corn crop IL not the
kind which is tie best for the pumpkin
crop. Corn requires loan rich in phos-
phoric acid and potash, and certainly but
small per cent. of nitrogen. The vine
class, such as pumpkins, squashcs and
melons require, on the contrary, loan
that shall be especially rich iii nitrogen,
and the quantity Of the crop is almost in
proportion to the liberality Of the use of
this element. While it might not pay to
purchase the high-priced forms of nitro
gen for this crop, yet where the farmer
has access to that very cheap source, fish
waste, II he has dairy 1t may be made
to pay well.
