The aucliicity of this speech --the lat-

Gwiler, there could be 130 question of

sneer of the ;merchant, a'llO l'edt that in
this lb: epaid any in-ipertinence.
"Net a dollar, thank you 1 not even
bit, taking it for granted that a dollar
would be stark robbery 1" was the re-
ply of the son, with a sneer quite as
well developed 88 Ilia own. But his
voice lost its tone of badinage and grew
terribly earnest as lie weat on ; and it
was worthy of remark that Ile spoke
plain English witnont the least inter-
mingling of Greaser, Chinese of Digger.
" Money! yon man who seem to think
that is nothing else in earth or heaven.

as he had been born of him, was again
in his voice when, he closed, just its
tvben he begim.
"What bnsiness, their, have yen with

, The travelling threshing mat:bine
'poems tO be indispensible just now, and.
'yet it i$ the source of a greal deal of
vexation and troubles in farming opera-
tions, Very few farmers can afford to
51114.0138331 111151 own a threshing machine
for tho sole pnrpose of threshing the
amount of grain they elope grow, and
they endure the atliction of a body of
eight or ten men and as many horses
from one to ten days every year. Tho
great evil, however, to which goodfarm-
ing is exposed by these travelling
threehers is the carrying of foul seeds
from place to place. There seems t�
be no means of averting this evil. If
one grows Canada thistles or red -root,
the seeds are sure to becarried and de-
posited along the road side and the
yardsetif other farmers by the threshing
machines and clover hullers. The 011.
ly remedy is for good tidy farmers ot
club together such machines for their
07311 use. The large. or what is termed
"mammoth threehers," would not be
needed, nor the cumbersome horse -pow-
ers that accompany such machines. A
good treacl-powc-r, as they are now
made, with a level tread, with thresher
which will chrash 200 bushels:in a day
with one team and three men, is far
safer, more profitable, because less ex-
peusive, costingnothing more than one-
third as much per bushel as to thrash
grain as with the travelling machinerz.,
it relieves the house of a small army of
men. As long as travelling machines
are used from farm to farm, they should
be brrished and swept from top to bot-

This is the only precaution that can be

1 give my plan of garden culture. I
always plant in hills as 1 find I can get
ft larger crop iu hills than rows. I
make up hills one foot wide, and about
six inches deep ; one afoot apart one
way and two the other way. After I
make my hills 1 drop two pieces in
each hill, and then put 11 good shovel
full of well rotted manure to each hill.
After this is done, 1 draw the earth ov-
er the manure just 'level, but do not
hill them up,' as 1 believe potatoes
should not be planted too deep. As
they have done the best foe me wheu
shallow As to the kind of manure
that is best for Clem, I do not believe
that it makes 11181011 difference if the
manure is well rotted. I know that if
fresh manure is used. I am apt to get
good many worm eaten and rough
potatoes. I have 81101) 11(1 fine a crop

about 111114. 11 shovelful applieil to each
hill. About four years ago 1 had a few
hills of Early Godrieb, and in one hill
there wore forty eatable potatoes. The
manure used was well rotted cow mau-
llre.

wood ashes over my potatoee \viten I
11111 ready to plant tliem. 1 always cut
my seed potatoes a wed; or so
before 1 plant hi order to let them get
dried over where they have been out. I
think they are not 60 apt to rot if it
should be wet, and they will come up
a few days sooner. Just before they
come up I rake the ground over, which

aleyoad through a, ,goveri1e,m4ylio re-

was a widower), tied afterwards assign-

plain "Miss" Somebody win= nobody

be that Lord Blank had fallen love with
his parlor maid; that fcr a year or
more he devoted every evening to her
instruction, so unconciously giving rise
to the scaudal and' °that when the
maid had learned as much as young
generally know (which she says was
not nearly so hard as to get her his

the grand world in which this eccentric

only an • amusing surprise ; but the

she is one of the most beautiful women

has a taste in dress which has already

When she came to work for the family

the front door and coldly repulsed, and
Sarah said she'dreprirse 'eni if she had
to break every broomstick in Detroit.

door open wide, bluffed right up at 'em,
and when she got through talking the
cheekiest agent was only too glad to
leave. IL got so after a while that ped-
lars markec'j that house, and the door-
bell never rang except for conirany.
The other day as the lady of the
house Waa enjoying a nap, and Sarah
was wiping off the spoons, the bell rang.
She hastened to the door, expecting to
see a lady, but her eyes encountered a
