Below we give, with their meaning,
some terms that are frequently used by
agricultural writer's:

stances, until their appearance, smell.
natural condition and all possible
means of recognition, except by chem
ical tests, are wholly obliteratcd. This
is manure as made by nature itself, and
is the perfection of the al ticle.
Moisture. This is not water, as that
will run, it is not merely a fog per-
vading the atmosphere, but an amount
of attenuated wet in the soil sufficient
to dissolve its constituents to con-
sistency just suitable for plant food,
and it must be of sufficient warmth.
Plants never eat cold victuals
Sand. Sand is pure slick or flint in a
granular state, brought about by the &C.
ton of waves Of water rolling the fints
over and over till reduced to sand.
Gravel is coarse sand in a state of
preparation to become fine sand.
Clay, is the condition albuminous
rocks are brought to by the action of
frost, heat and water alternately, and
always has the color of the original
rocks.
MARI is decayed sea shells, torn BY
the waves, ground up with sand, and
consists of slick and lime in proportion
as either predominated.
Rich Soil This is made thus: Humus
to feed plants, clay to bind it together,
sand to keep it open, mari to add lime
to act chemically upon the humus, and
if mass Of living vegetable matter can
be constantly added to decay in the
soil, it will retain its fertility.-Farm,

THE CROW FAMILY.
sons Of the Peculiar Traits Of the Nols
Blaok-Plunaed Tribe.

Some Of the Peculiar Traits Of the Noisy
Black-PluMed Tribe.
Multitudes Of crows often congregate
in tho woods and swamps Wilson saws
that the most noted crow roost he ever
saw in his life is on an island in the
Delaware. This island" to use the
words of this eminent naturalist .'some-
times goes by the name of the Pea
Patch. 1t is only little raised above
the surrounding water, and is covered
with q thick growth of reeds. The en-
tire island is destitute Of trees, and the
crows alight and nestle among the reeds.
The noise made by tho birds, in their
morning and evening assemblies, IL H.
most incredible. Whole fields of corn
are sometimes laid waste by thousands
alighting on it at once, with appetites
whetted by the fast OF the preceding
night. Tho utmost watchfulness is nee
essary on the part Of the farmer to pre-
vept his field from being plundered.
The character of the crow is here in very
bad repute. To say to tho man who has
lost his whole crop Of corn by these
birds that crows are exceedingly useful
for destroying vermin would be just
about rs consoling as it would DO to tell
him that fires are excellent for
destroying logs when he has Just
had his house burned down by
tho flames. Some years ago q sudden
northeast storm came ON during the
night, and the tide, rising to an uncom-
mon height, covered tho whole island.
The darkness Of the night, the violence
of tho storm and the suddenness with
which it came on, it is supposed, SO
frightened the crows that they did not
attempt to escape. At any rate, nearly
the whole of them persisted. Thousands
of them were seen the next day floating
in the river, and the wind, shifting to
the northwest, drove their dead bodies
to the New Jersey side, where for miles
they blackened tho whole shore. How
ever, it was not long after that before
the island contained as large popula-
ton of crows as ever' This race of
birds. the writer thinks, must have
great affection for the Pea Patch.
A crow once attempted to carry of a
young chicken or two and got himself
into trouble by this means. The chick
ems clustered around the parent hen and
she defended them with good deal of
heroism. At last she drove the enemy
into an apple treo and fought him there
so furiously that he was soon glad to re-
treat and give up his chance of getting
dinner in that ouarter.-Balti1 ore

There are local diseases of various char
acters for which nature provides positive
remedies. They may not be included in the
regular physician list, perhaps, because of
their simplicity, but the evidence of their
curative power is beyond dispute. Kidney
