Alt soil8 are not what they shguld be in order that the largeet returns for labont ratty be obtained; they often • eed to be improved in mantrespects • el for various reasons. Some soils are not meohanically fitted for throwin of good crops. It ratty bethat there is but little soirand much of that subst nee out of which soils are slowly mad by the action of frost and wind and n ; in, other words, rocks large and s It all may abound. In a ease like, this the farmer must be content te grow h a erop, with mu& discomfort in the o era - tion, or remove the rooks and. s •nes and work a cleared land. ' The soil may be too wet, and pl nts will not thrive with their "feet" st nd- ing in the water. The remedy -for his is draining. If the land, is low and. covers &large area it may be neces ary to dig large open drains with ot ers leading intothem. In this way hat was before a worthless marsh gr bog can be converted into a rich and •ro- ductive field. It may be that o • y a small portion of a field is wet, •d a covered drain of either stones (if hey are plenty) or tile will improve thepot 11 so much that it will pay for the ira- provement in the increase a the rat two or three crops. A good under -a ain is a permanent improveraent. It m es the soil warmer as well as drier.; g4vs better access of air, and thus facilit tea those chemical changes in the soil tliiat that are so essential to good crops. A soil may be a heavy clay and an be mechanically improved by g en manuring by &tremor fallow; in sh rt, by any means that will loosen the p d- oles_ and render the soil inore open for access of air and the penetrating of Ithe delicate roots. The ohemical improvement of he soil includes the use of manures, fe 11 - lame and any of those operations that are meohanical whioh facilitate chemi- cal action, and in that way prepare plant food for the corning crop. All planta need food;. it may be present in the soil in sufficient quantity, and. only needs to have the conditions develeped that will put it in proper shape'and present it to the absorbing root. Most soila that have been long ufider cultiva- tion need to be fed. The three sub- stances most frequently lacking are potash, phosphoric acid, and. nitrogen. These three essentials of plant food are supplied by barnyard manure, and in a form that is naost acceptable to the plants. Barnyard manure is a com- plete manure, containing all the ele- ments that any soil may need for the growth of a crop. It has both a ineohanical and cheraical effect in the improvement of soils. The so-called fertilizers are special manures, and frequently contain only one of the thee or more substances needed by the soil that is naturally poor or has become exhausted by cropping. With the soil free of stones, moist and mellow, and supplied with manure until it can be called rich, the farmer Itas gone far toward iraproving his soli. , It may be necessary to clean it of weeds,' which can be done by a judicious rata- , tion a arops.and thorough tilling. With all th‘ee points gained, good orops may be heped for as a pecuniary reward; but besides this profit there will also come a comfort that always follOws good works. It pays in s.- double sense to farm well, and to this end, if nedes- sary, improve the soil. What am Old Farmer Says. This is the advice of an gld man who has tilled, the soil for forty years : lam an ol4 man upwards of three core years, during two scores of which I have been rioli and have all I need ; do not owe a dollar, have given my children a good education, and when I am called away shall leave them enough to keep the wolf from the door. My ex- perience haa taught me that - 1. Ono acre of land well prepared and well tilled produced more than two which received only the same amount of labor used on one, 2. One cow, horse, mule, sheep or hog well fed is more profitable than two kept on the saane amount necessary to keep one well. 3. One acre -of clover or grass is worth more than two of cotton where no grass or clover is raised. 4. No farmer who buys oats, corn or wheat, fodder and hay, can keep the sheriff from the door to the end. 6. The farmer who. never reads the papers, mews at book farming and inn proveraents, always has a leaky roof, poor stock, broken down fences, and complains af “bad seasons." 6. The farmer who is above his istisi- nese reed entrusts it to another to men- age soon has no beakless to attend tol The farmer whose habitual beverage is cold water is healthier, wealthier ad wiser than he who does not refuse to drink. It was a Fast "Hose." Haw a Nag beat a ThvAder.Storm A prominent Waterbury "hos' s" m n was expatiating upon the speeding qu 1- ities of a fine horse to a prospective buyer, the other day. In reply to an interrogatory regarding the animad's "staying" qualities,:he said Well, I guess he'll stay, and k ep his'gait right up as long as yon want to drive. I'll jest tell you about a drive I took from Danbury last summer. A drummer got left by the New Engle d train, and come up to rayeitable to get Boras one to take him over The b ys were all busy, an' most o' the hor es was out. John, as we call hina, »d. been drove up to Bantam the day e - fore, an' I hadn't let him that morni g. I knew 'twee rough on the old fell we but I knew't he was good for it, s I hitched up, an' we started. 'Twa a hilin" hot day,and dusty's fury, had 't been no rain for a week, but we got to Danbury all right just after noon. I put John in the stable, an, after din er I sat out on the stoop to the ' Woos er House, smokint and tbinkin' I'd wit till the cool othe day before I drone back. It seemed to git hotter'n hotter, an' we had to git in doors and set in the ben -room. Wal, I set there till aftler four o'clock, readin' a,paper, an' drink- intrum and, ice -water, when I heard it thunder. I went out on the stoop, : • ' see there was a shower coining, sol • re dered my hose brought right mat. ler. Raynaond tried his levelest to meke e stay; said I'd get soaked through, as ', like enough, git struck by lightenint But 1 told him I'd got to git home th t night, anyhow, an' if I started rig it off I'd get their ahead o' the shower. You °lighter a' heard him an' the oth r • fellers laugh when I said that. Of course I didn't expect to do any thing of the sort, but I didn't know John so well then 98 1 do now. "When the hostler -brought John around to the door the rain was a own - in' whole water betwixt there an' Mill Plain, and we coubl bear the wind roar - in' through the trees up back o' the fair ground. 'John, he knowed that suthin unusual was up, for he stood pawin', and a worldn' his ears, an' kinder look - tip to me as much's to say, 'Old man yer dont know how much of a hose I be when I set about it;' an' I confess I didn'tknow. "Wad, when I got in an' took up them reins the hail stones had began to rattle on. the kitchen roof ot the hotel, and the thunder-olaps Were tryin' to see whioh:could makethe most noise. I jest sung ont to John to git, an' you may reckon he did git. Every time a fresh thunder -clap broke loose he seemed to take it as an argyraent for him to go faster. I had the buggy top up when I started, but afore we'd gone a mile I had to let it down flat, for the air pressed into it so solid that I couldn't breathe. - When we got into the holler jest t' other side o' Newton, looked over my shoulder, asa' the wind was raoin' downthe hill oot twenty rods 'behind, an' the gutters was runnin' full o' water, and when we got onto Newton Green, the holler was six inches deep with water. When we went through the centre the houses looked as if they was all whirlin round, and it sorter o' made me dizzy. "John didn't seem to notice nothin.' but kep' gain' faster an' faster till we just flew down the hill through Sandy Hook. John's legs was in the air all the time, an' I bet his belly wa'n't a foot from the ground. When we crossed the rubber -shop bridge I happened to think o' the sten- gate at Bennett's Bridge, three miles ahead. I went to countin' out the change for toll, but afore I could git my purse into my pocket agin we come in sight of the bridge. I could see the gate was shut, but a wonaan was out- doors pickin' up some chips 'fore they got wet. She raust'a' thought we was a runaway, for she dropped an apron full o' chips an' flopped that gate open in lese'n a quarter o' a second, an' just in the nick e' time to save John's jump - in' it. I tried to chuck the toll out, but all but thee cents stuck on to my fin- gers jest by the force o' the wind—we was goin' so fast. John slowed a trifle crossild the long bridge, 'oause he must o' seen the notice about fast drivin' stuck up at the end. But when we got off'n the planks we reore'n made up for it. You'd 'a.' thought we'd bin crawl - in' before by the way we went now. hill an' down we went a flukin', with the thunder roarin' an' hail an' rain rattlindisonae o' the time not twen- ty feet behind. "Jest ant we struck Southbury I .heared a or cklin', and lookin' around I see what 1 oOfedlike a sky -rocket on the tellygraph ireesn' I knowed 'twee, a, streak o' lig • tnin' tryin to ketch us.— Thinks I, 'J•hn, old boy, you're beat now sure;' out I just gave a cluck, and he doubled his gait rite off. That streak tagge us to Southbury Centre, when it got sick o' the job, an' flew off onto the rool of Pulford's gropery. “I notice. when John struck this last spurt t at the slack o' the reins kept shortn n' up till I had te get on my knees a reach Over the dashboard to keep hol • of 'em; them air traces had stretch d nigh two feet, an the whiffietree asbent up like a rainbow. -I'd a had. to drop them lines if I han't had a long ie line in the buggy an' spliced 'am • nt. We was flyifi' so fast after leavin Southbury that the tele- graph poles n the country road looked like a solid °lice, and all I loauld see of Middlebury was the top of the church steeple, which was higher 'n the poles. "Wal, sir, when I drove into this stable that lhnnder shower was a leg- gin aloiag over by the Breakneck four corners. There was just five hailstuns in the back ef the boggy that must a' got in when John slowed Ibis gait on Bennett's beidge. What ails his mane, did you say? same thing 't ails my head.: the friction o' the air took all the hair off at that time. That sir, was drivin', that was, an' I've got the wealth that Says that Sohn can do as well again.—Waterbury Atnerida.n. ete.British Workhouse. Human swinery has here reached its acme, happily; 30,000 paupers in this union, population supposed to be 60,000. Workhouse proper (I suppose) cannot hold above three or four thou- sand of them, subsidiary workhouses and out -door relief the others. Abom- ination of desolation ; hat could you make of it! Out-dgor quasi -work; three or four hundred big hulks of fel- lows tumbling about with shares, pioks and barrows, "levelling" the end of their workhouse hill ; at first glance you would think them all working; look nearer,in each shovel there is some ounce or two of mould., and it is all make-belive ; five or six hundred boys and lads pretending to break stones.
