An Gid Question. 1 In every pttbli^ation devoted to the in- t terests of the farm, and in many not Espe- cially agricultural, appears at frequent intervals the stereotyped warning to boys to guard against the mistake of leaving the farm for the city, " Don't leave the farm." " The city is full of vice," " Dan- ger lurks at every corner of the city." '. " Success in the Dayis almost impossible." 1 of the city man." Such are the "A farmer's wife is far happier than that warnings and the wise sayings of the many writers =I on such subjects. Now I know what life on the farm is, says a correspondent I know its pleasures, its hard work, its comforts and discomforts, and I also know oity life, its dangers, its worry and rush its pleasures too, all from personal experience. The ground I take is this : it is worse than folly for a yowl -roan to make farm. fug his life business it^he is unfit for it. It •t would be a waste of his life, a burying of his talents, if he has talent, in another direction. This trying to make the farm. er's son a farmer simply because he was born upon the farm, and considering him a sinner if he leaves, is all wrong. If farming is his fort he should stick to it 4 and enceess will be won—otherwise he may " peg along," discontented and n808000as• ful. Not everyone can make a 80c0000 of tPfarming ; it requires ability push and b,181' cress judgment. S If a bey has a mechanical turn of mind be will make a better mechanic than farm. or, and will be far happier in the field of mechanics than in the field of agriculture, True, many men in the cities long for aonntey quiet—they, or many of them, would make successful farmers where they aro making failures of their calling, per- haps. There are misfits everywhere, on the farm and in the pity. It is a mistake for a boy to seek city em- ployment simply because ho dislikes the hard work and soiled hands, which are n part of the farmer's life. Soiled hands, • poor olothes and hard work abound in the arty. What I would advise is that where a boy )las a natural bunt for mechanics, mediufne, law, journalism, art or agriottl. tore, that bent should be encouraged, educated and advanced in every legitimate way to the end that he may be crowned with a successful life. Olover Ray. Tho value of clover hay as food for horses, mulch cows and sheep, is underestimated because it is too often improperly oured. Very many practical farmers do not be- lieve the 0tatemellt of the scientists that atom makes a nearly p ration ra ' on ' for a hors's at light work,and not a few say. that Y they do not want he hay at all, To all such the fotiowing suggestions are offered by the Prairie Farmer: When the clover is barely in full bloom, Os and before ten per cent, of the heads tura brown, cut a toe and cure it in the empty barn mows, This will test the matter as to the feeding strength of clover, I know it to be a fact that such hay wilt be preferred by horses tort good pasture, and eaten with nearly the same relish as oats, Clover at this stage oontains a hitch per Dent, of rioh digestible food, and is very palatable. Of course much hay 0a111100 be made after this fashion, but it i0 worth while for any Ir, doubtol' to take this trouble to find out the possibilities of clover as a feed. Then he will see that tit dilibretoe between such feed and the hay as usually made is a mat• ter for which he is in a great degree re• sponsible. Probably half the feeding value of olover is usually lost by the common methods of handling it. The hay is allowed to get en. tiroly too ripe when it etanda until nearly all brown and the steme become woody and the loaves and heads lose their sweetness. More hay can be made by late cutting, but tits quality is seriously impaired—so much 00 that sono doubt the claim that clover hay is much stronger food than timothy hay. Clover is hard to euro at any stage and ie especially so when in full bloom. The Issued way is to let it lie after out. ting until it is ready for the mow, and then the top ie badly burned and the leaves are bratlo.and fall off. Good clover hay, free from dust, cannot be made in showery weather, as it should be cured in the wins Brow and cock, and this requires time. The claim is made that hay may bo drawn to the mow as seen as the outside moisture is gong, but I have never succeeded fully in this way. 1 prefer field eurfng, but It must be done in frill exposure to the sun, nor Must dew fall upon it in the swath unless when fresh out.

It will apply, however, to Ontario ina eimilat' eea8on, Sowing oats at the rate of from five to 18 peok0 per acre, did notmateriahy affect the yield of grain, The thicker the sowing the earlier Otto onto ripened and the loss rho quantity of straw per aore, Applying ten tots of yard manure per acro increased the yield of oats on rather poor land from 45 to 00 bushels, a gain of 450 pounds of grain increased the yield of 'straw 1,000 pounds, With comparatively dry weather eluting the early growth of the oats there was no tendency to lodge. Giving more than ordinary preparation to the soed•bed slid not materially increase the yield of either oats or barley. Plowing the seed•bod produced batter results than any method of preparing seedbeds in this oompact soil without plowing. A somewhat better yield of oat was ob- tained by sowing April 15, which was the usual time of sowing oats this season in this Imlay, than by earlier or later sowing. Satisfactory results were obtained by sow- ing any week in April, Plowing land six inches deep, which Inas been in timothy and clover one year, gave better results with corn titan shallower or deeper preparation of the seed -bed, both in the quantity of grain and stover. Coro from a fifteenth acre plot, which had no stirring of the soil after the corn was planted, but merely had the weeds re- moved by scraping the surface with a hoe, yielded 47 bushels of shelled corn per aore, while sly plots cultivated with the ordinary cultivator, three, two inches deep and three, four in0lras deep, yielded about 5S bushels per aore. Cultivating as nearly as an ordinary rid- ing cultivator could be made to do ft, two or four Inches deep, did nut materially affect the yield. Planting the ordinary medium maturing dent corn, at the rate of ono kernel every six inches, in rows 42 inches apart, gave a larger yield of grain than thinker or thinner planting. Planting at the rate of one ker. net every three inches gave 2,500 pounds more stover and 1,850 pounds less ears. The yield, when planted at the rate of one kernel every 0 or '12 inches, Wes consider- ably less of stover and somewhat leas of grain from a much less number of ears. The quantity of stover produced decreased with the thickness of planting. The method of distribution, whether one, two, three, or four kernels were planted per hill, dfd not affect the yield so long as the thickness of planting remained the same. Topping the cora decreased the yield of grain, as compared with allowing the corn to ripen on the standing stalks without mutilation. The weight of ears was do. creased 540 pounds per aore, while the total weight of tops was 1,050 pounds per meta. The tope were from one•fourth to one-third the total stover' and about one•eight the plant above ground. When the whole plant was out and shocked the yield of ear corn was 188 pounds per aore less than when the yore was merely topped.

The extra. ordinary flatness of these submarine pastries renders tit familiar simile of the basin rather inappropriate. The hollow of the Atlantic is not strictly a basin whose depth increaaes regularly toward the center , it is described by the Nau- tical ilfaf/rssfur• as rather a 8alleer or dish•liko one, so even is the eouutour of its bed. The greatest depth in the At- lantic has been found some 100 miles to the northward of the island of St. Thom• as, where soundings of 5,575 fathoms were obtained. Tho seas round Great Britain can hardly be regarded as forming part of the platform banks of the European con- tinent which the ocean has overflowed. An elevation of the sea bed 100 fathoms would suffice to lay bare the greatest part of the North see, and join England to Denmark, Holland, Belgium and France.

There are two men sent adrift in every canoe. With a long lino attached to hie spear -handle the marksman has his svoather eye out for his sleek•coated victim. with unerring aim he seeds his dart through the seal, and with his line draws it into the boat, where it is odnbbed to death. They stake use of the double-barrelled gun, but are not in love wit1, it. Their chase seldom lentis them beyond fifty or sixty miles to seaward, and they are thus enabled to run in and out of their pleasure and avoid tate heavy gales. Sometimes they will follow the seal a long w'ay north and generally return well pant.

Little elrneully Over the Seizure by Ctutorns °titters or Some Lobster 1,149• A 80. John's, Nfld., special says:—The French warship Naiade, the flagship, with Admiral Lameronx, arrived here_ Sunday, intending to remain till after the 14th inst. She left suddenly Monday evening to the great surprise of all, as there was an ar• rangemeut made by Govenor O'Brien for a state ball on Wednesday. French Consul Des Isles had also issued invitations to a garden party in honor of the Admiral's ar• rival. I learn this morning that the sudden denature of the Admiral was owing to the refusal of the Newfoundland Government to surrender goods seized at Bay St. George. These goods consisted of 400 cases of lobster cansjimported in British bottoms by French packers. The Admiral has demanded the surrender of the property, but the New. fotndland Government, claiming that the seizure is in accordance with law, refuses this request, and they uphold the deter• mined stand taken by the customs officers who made the seizures. In consequence Admiral Lanloreux has left this port with- out any oancellatiot of his engagements en. tered into in a social way. The French ships it is said, have none to Oho Bay of St. George, the scene of the seizure. ADDITIOS1.1, li101ORT. The French Admiral yesterday morning had a conference with the Governor and the !executive Council. He demanded the re. tura of the goods. The Governor refused, and he gave 0110311 until 5 o'clock in the afternoon for a final answer. None arriv- ing at that hour, he hoisted his anchor and loft the port, refusing to attend a dinner arranged in his Rotor that evening and a ball on Wednesday.

Admiral Lamoretxhas gone to St. Pierre to report to the Governor ; 011018ce he will sail to the French shore. The Ole. opatra awaits instructions from England, and will then follow the Naiade.

Nine -tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir aro dependant on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges- tics. When there is an insufficient supply cf nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body aro carried on, it is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not con- tain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and Iabor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissuo is formed.
