ANOTHER NEW YEARS EVE.
Another New Years eve!

Another New Years eve!
 We forbear to wonder how many more are in store for us. We know well that sooner or later, the last one will come. "We are all driven to the same quarter" says Horace. ''The lot of all is shaken in the urn of Death. Later or sooner ours will come forth, and we will be hauled to Charon's ferry for eternal exile"
 Omnes eodem cogimur; omnium
 Versstur urna' serius, ocius,
 Sors exitura, ct nos in aeternum
 Exilium impositura cymbae.
 Whether many more New Years eyes are ahead of us, or few, or none, is not our concern tonight. We are not permit ted to dismiss the thought even of the morrow, much more, of the next year and of the years still beyond that, if there shall be any for us.
 The past we commit to Gods mercy; the future we trust to Gods providence only the present is ours, to live to Gods glory. We are soiourners, as all our fathers were.
 And nightly pitch our moving tent;
 A days march nearer home.
 Throughout Christendom at least New Years eve is time of retrospec- tions, as we'll ss of resolutions.
 We don't want to turn curtly from the old year without good bye. It has journeyed with us for three hundred and sixty-five days and nights.

Roadside Fences.

Two neat, attractive fences were, de-
scribed not long ago in American Gar
dening. The first consisted of two or
three strands of wire, with an embank-
ment of earth drawn up steeply under
meath. If there were any stones in this
ridge they were deeply covered. The
ridge was we'll sodded and a wide, shall
low ditch lay between it and the track
of the roadway, SO that all except just
the embankment itself could be readily
moved with machine. This roadside
presents as neat and trim an appearance
as any other piece of meadow land, and
to Judge from indications the yield OF
hay had been sufficient to pay a very
good interest at least on the cost OF put
ting the roadside in shape.
The other plan of fence was plain,
rough, board structure. with the ground
around it perfectly level and well cult
waited. Black cap raspberries grown
from directly beneath it were tslined in
and out among the boards for support,
the canes being allowed to grow quite
tall and spreading. On a much Travelled
highway such berries would doubtless
be somewhat injured by DUST but this
fence was on a quiet road, where little
dust arose. and the result was a neat
roadside, with an abundance of, easily
accessible fruit for family use.

said he. Three actors were dining to-

little early. Poor old Hicks says one,
thinks he can play Hamlet! Why, he
isn't up to melodrama.' That's so, says
the other. I saw him do serious part
once, and it was the funniest thing of
the season. Well, | must get to the
theater. Good night. old man The
one who was left at the table gave him
good night, and as he watched him re-
ceding down the room he folded his arms
across his breast and soliloquized: Poor
old Fitz! Thinks he can play Iago. The
audacity of that man is sublime
after he had smoked up his cigar he
likewise arose and stalked out. Then
the waiter ran his fingers through his
hair, rested on his right foot, put his
hand into his waistcoat, and in Irving
esque tones exclaimed for his own bene-
fit: These youthful popinjays fancy that
they-they, forsooth!-have learned the

On most prominent corner of Chest
nut street, Philadelphia, stands an old
white haired man selling papers. He al
ways stands there, rain or shine, come
snow, come blow, mud or dust. and has
stood there from in the morning till 9
at night for the last six years. His hair
is white as snow, and his beard is thick
and grizzled His full blue eyes are
shaded by gold trimmed glasses. His
clothes are neat and tidy. His language
is that of cultured gentleman.
And that is just what he is Thirty
years ago he was one of New York's big
builders. He speaks with pride of the
many evidences Of his handiwork still
standing and which do not advertise
their insigniisance even by the side Of
the noble structures of this modern day.
Now he sells newspapers On street cor
ner in Philadelphia. He is fond of talk
ing of his young son, an artist of some
ability, | am told, and his highest desire
is to send him to Rome and to Paris.
The young man has been studying
under pupil of Gerome His great
wish is to take lessons directly from the
hand of the master. It is a charming
thing to hear his father, the newsman,
huddled in corner out of the drifting
snow, talk of my son, the artist" He
just glories in the subject, of which he
never seems to tire.

papers. He said it was because he was

work of some kind he must do or he
would die. What story Of life such a

GREEN MANuRING.
A Southerner's Views in Regard to Turn
ing Under Green Crops.

A Southerner's Views in Regard to Turn
ing Under Green Crops.
Notwithstanding the vast amount of
commercial fertilizers used in addition to
the home manures many farms in the old
er sections of the country are failing.
The necessity of different method is i'm
perative-a method which will impart
more body to the soil. Stable and barn
yard manures give the required body to
the soil, but few farmers make enough
to supply the demands of their own fields.
Thomas D. Baird, writing in The South
ern Cultivator. says:
In my judgment, if farmers would
practice turning under green crops every
season, then add the other manures, we
would find our land would improve and
go on improving until, instead of twenty
five bushels of corn on the average per
acre, we would grow 200, and instead of
thirteen bushels of wheat, the present
average per acre. we would average six
ty-five. What one acre has done Ger
tainly two can be made to do.
We have said green manuring was the
best way to improve and give body to
the soil, still the mineral elements Of
these crops are derived entirely from tho
soil. SO that when we pillow under green
crop the land will be no richer in potash
or phosphoric acid than before, but these
elements can be in condition more
available for plant food. Some plants
have better digestion than Others while
deep rooted plants can get some food by
retaining the fertility which has been
washed into the subsoil out of reach of
most plants.
Again. organic matter is added to the
soil when the crop is plowed under, quite
a little of which has been derived from
the atmosphere. Another benefit we de
rive from green manuring is the vegeta-
BILE matter turned under, which gives to
the soil it's dark color makes clay soils
more crumbly and gives sandy soil more
body, besides making the soil warmer
and lighter and admitting the air. 1t is
also source of carbonic acid gas, which
acts to make available the plant food al
ready in the soil.
But perhaps the most important eff
feet of green manuring is the addition of
nitrogen which valuable element is most
liable to be lost by teaching or by escap-
ing into the air. thus making it more
costly. It has been shown that certain
plants have the power of using the free
nitrogen of the air and converting it into
vegetable substance. sand SO afording
available plant food for other plants. It
is then evident that the best plant for
green manuring is one that has long
roots to pump up the lowest fertility
from the 81 bsoil, and has bulky root,
and which will add large quantity Of
humus to the soil. Also one that gathers
nitrogen from the air.
Clover answers these requirements per-
fectly as does the pea, except that it
has short roots. Buckwheat and rye,
while they will grow on poorer land
than clover, and therefore would better
go before, do not really have the power
of using the free nitrogen of the air, nor
do they have long roots, and where clo-
yer will grow they are not SO desirable.
