EARLY CULTIVATION.
If Means Mucii Hard Work, But IL Es Work Tstat Pays for ItscIg More
 Than EvgScS Over.

With all cultivated crops it is the early cultivation that is the most impor- tant. The weeds are easiest killed when they first make their appearance above ground, and if the weeds can be kept down and the scil in good tilth until the plants get well started to growing it is much easier to maintain good growth. One decided advantage in hay ing the soil well prepared when the seed is planted is that it will be possible to begin the cultivation earlier.
 In most cases when the cultivation is commenced in good season in the gar den sharp steel rake or prong hoe, and, in the field. q good smoothing harrow will be foundthe best and most econOm- ical implements. Properly used, they will destroy the weeds that may have started up and q the same time will fire the soil and keep it in good tiltb With all crops the cost of cultivating is quite an item, and when the condi- ton of the soil will admit using them m no way can the weeds be killed out so effectualIy and the soil be so thor oughly fined as when these implements are used.
 Then the cultivator can be used, talk ing pains to work as close to the plants as possible. There is no advantage in working the soil deep. Thoroughly stir the surface, and better growth can be secured than by stirring deep, while shallow cultivation is easier on man and team.
 Under ordinary conditions one good narrowing and three good cultivations should be given within the first six weeks of plant growth. Once the plants get well started to growing, it is com paratively easy to keep them growing. St. Louis Republic.

ILLS OF LONGEVITY.
EEsenEsOn of Life Beyond Natural Limit Involves Only Labor
 and Sorrow.

The London Spectator. discussing Dr.
 the possibility of indefinite extension Of life. does not regard it as an unmiXed
 blessing, and quotes Sir Thomas
 Browne. who knew all the resources of old age, as one who did rot 'envy the temper Of crows and daws, nor the nu- mercus and weary days of our fathers before the food" There are many oth- CTS. like Sir Thomas Browne. who think they have had trouble enough in grow ing old without btirdenirg themselves with the Eew trouble Of getting young again. Though threescore years anc ten are not now generally regarded as the natural limit of life. since sanita; tion and mtdical discoveries have i'm: proved the average health; sill the Psalmist was correct in his assertion that Gn extension Of life much beyond that limit involves only labor and sor- fo". Inc desIderatum is not so much that the normal duration of life shouId be greatly Increased. but that when it IS Intreased the ills which ii brinps shoufd be lnitiga ed or lessened as far as possible.
