loftier strain: they heard spring warb-
ing her wood notes Of herself as the
harbinger Of immortal life. To the
people Of the Olden time the renewed
life in the earth in the spring time was
profoundly interesting. 1t was life
thrilling around the graves where lay
their dead. 1t was life coming from the
Author of all lives, and it's possibilities

Himself was close at hand even among
the graves of the dead. in many a
mouldering heap. All the dead We're
buried with faces towards the east. be-
cause it was from there the Divine
Spirit seemed to exercise his reviving
power through the sun. And the New
Testament seemed to hint that from the
east point of the sky the last trumpet
would be heard, summOning from their
narrow beds the dead. 1t appears that
oil antiquity, especially the inhabi-
tants of Britain, believed that the resur-
rection Of the dead would occur in the
spring of the year, and that the glor-
, ious new bodies to clothe them there
with would come ready prepared like
the flowers of spring. For thousands
Of years the Welsh-B -Britons have, as a
religious duty, gone at Easter to the
graves to remove the ruins of winter
and plant them with fresh flowers; and
1t was for1Aerly the custom at Easter to
color the graves white. the old Welsh
hue of holineses. But the Puritanical
leprosy came into Wales, and. asso-
ciating religion and the hope of another
life with melancholy, 1t nearly broke the
heart Of the liveliest nation in Europe.
Laughing. which men and women can
only do, was a sign Of spiritual dete-
ioratiOn: whistling was q sign of being
certainly in league with satan. Love of
flowers was a sign of spiritual frivolity,

BUSINESS BREvlrIES

PENNSYLVANIA STEEL CO.-The
annual report Of the Pennsylvania Steel
company shows that the concern has
been thoroughly .rehabilitated and II
entering upon q new period OF pros
perity. The year 1885 was not Q good
one In the iron trade. yet II seems the
company did very well The gross prof.
Its at Steelton were Sas5, sss.is. ana at
Sparrow's Point $2le, ,Ssl.79. or a total
OF s695.950.91. The dividend Of per
cent declared by the Juragua Iron COM
pany Is not included In this total, as
1t was not received by the time the
year ended. but II Included IL would
swell the total by $37,5OO. The interest
payments were unusually large because
OF the adjustment Of the floating debt.
and the reorganization expenses. legal
and otherwise. We're very considerable,
so that the net profits were nearly all
absorbed. With only four months OF
good business last year. the company
earned about 100000 profit. The an
nual fixed charges are $3.50, 200, the pre-
ferred stock dividend calls for sos. 900
more. SO that It seems on even the dull
business OF year like 1895 a fair sur
plus Is earned for the common stock.
with business In a normal condition,
the results would be much better.

derived chiefly from the decay of vege-
table matter. In this decay the original
structure of the vegetable has been en-
tirely lost, and the residue, in the form
of vegetable mold of black or brown
color, is left distributed in the soil. In
the process Of decay the organic matter
of the vegetable is converted Largely into
acids of the hume series and the nitro
genous principles of the plant become
changed from an albuminold to more
inert form, in which it is more readily
preserved. 1t is this practically inert
form of nitrogen on which the soil fer
ments exercise their activity in prepar
ing it for the uses of the plant. 1t has
been commonly accepted theory in the
past, especially since the time of Liebig,
that the organic principles Of humus
of every description suffer entire decom
position under the action of fermentive
germs before being absorbed as plant
nutriment. Recent Investigations, how
ever, tend to show that in some instan.
ces the organic elements Of the humus
itself may serve as food for plan is
without undergoing entire decomposi-
ton. Whether or not the heterogeneous
principles of humus can thus be en-
ployed has not been determined, but
that the humus itself, or some constitu
ents thereof, can be absorbed by the
plant have myself often noticed, espec-
tally in the case of sugar cane grown on
rich vegetable mold. The juices ex-
pressed from such canes contain the or
ganic matter of the humus to certain
extent unchanged, and the sugar and
molasses made therefrom are distinctly
impregnated in the raw state with this
organic matter.

ties, and give to the farmer such advan-
tages as wealth may bring.
These facts are brought about by COM
mon observation that ordinarily those
countries which are the richest agricul-
turally seem to be the poorest in accu-
INFLATED wealth. Broad acres of fertile
land give promise of the easy acquire
ment of wealth, but very often the
greatest accumulation of agricultural
wealth will be found in less hospitable
ATTITUDES, where less featile soil lncites
the individual to more earnest efforts in
the pursuit of wealth and comforts.
What might not the south attain to in
this direction if every farmer within its
limits should seek wealth as keenly, as
earnestly, as energetlcally and as intelli-
gently as the agriculturists of the north
and west-Southern Farmer.
