The New Agriculture.
New methods must be adopted in order
to get back to old results. When the Om -
hared portions of the country were first
'•cleared" and put into crops there was large
yields of all farm crops. When the great
western prairie regions were first "broken"
and put into crops there were large and
abundant yields of crops ; but now in both
these regions, which include the en-
tire country, there are small yields
and a constantly diminishing yield
of all the farm crops grown. The
methods first adoptedhav
must e been
defective. It is not only true that the yields
of Drops are falling short, but the soil itself
is losing ite fertility, both of which results
are caused by the same thing, namely, the
attempt to cultivate a larger area than
could be properly cultivated.
When the country was new and lands
ohmap a great temptation to acquire a large
portion of land led to tb8Practice of culti-
vating too many aures. A change for the
better requires an abandonment of the first
error—no more than can be cultivated in
the best mamler must be undertaken. This
will give an opportunity to do well all that
is undertaken. Shallow pleating and in.
sufficient cultivation permits the fertility to
run to waste, thus depleting the soil and
lessening the yield of Drops.
Time taken to plow deep and with great
care will be time well spent. Nothing is
so important as properly plowing theground,
I1. is not enough to plow deep, but narrow
furrows should be made in order to break
up the soil as much as possible—making it
mellow as deep down as possible.
After plowing there. is commonly a great
neglect. Generally the whole field, large
or small, is plowed before there is any

low or fine, and this single item often
causes the loss of one-half the crop.
It is important to have the noel as fine
as possible, and the best way to do thin is
to harrow thoroughly immediately after'
the plowing is done ; that is harrow just
before noon what has been plowed before
noon, and that which has been plowed in
the afternoon should be harrowed in the
evening. This keeps the work up evenly
and prepares the ground for the best re-
sults. Too much importance Dan not be
placed upon the matter of thoroughly pre.
paring the soil for the Drop. To have the
soil very fine deep down will insure the
1 et results. The soil must be put in such
oondition as will preserve moisture during
the entire period of crap growth. If the
soil dries oub the joint action of the earth
and air in the elaboration of plant food
will be prevented and the crop will be out
short.
The single condition which the unitive,
tion most supply is a sufficient degree of
mellowness of the surface soil. All else
follows by the action of nature's laws. The
vast growth of timber forests welt illus-
trates nature's methods, and clearly and
forcibly teaches the cultivator what he
must do to obtain like results. The shade
of the forest and the roots penetrating the
earth to great depths preserve a moist and
mellow conditiou of the soil so that the
moisture and plant food deposited deep
down in the earth are brought to the sur.face when needed by the capillary action
of the earth. The air alas performs its
essential part in the distribution of moist-
ure and fertility, while the surface soil is
moist and mellow. Tho increasing de.
than)1s of It ooustantly increasing growth
are supplied from the boundless stores of
fertility contained in the earth and the
air, which truth clearly shows that the
fertility needed for the produotion of the
fruits of the earth for the sustenanoe of
human and animal life is absolutely un-
limited.

Terrible Predicament of Miners.
A remarkable instance of bravery amid
the dangers of coalminiog has come to light
at St Helens. A oonple of the new shafts
are being sunk at the Lea Careen Collieries,
and the solid rock is destroyed by blasting
operations. A clay or two ago this work
was being superintended by George Atkin-
son, a young man residing in Boundary
Road, St. Helens. rotr blasting cartridges
had been "mamned" home, and all the Wren,
with the exception of Atkinson and an
assistant, were taken up the shaft before
the shots were fired. When everthiug was
completed Atkinson signalled up the shaft
and received a reply that all was right and
ready for winding up the hoppet—the large
iron bucket used do sinking operations. At.
kinson accordingly lit the fuse attached to
the shots and jumped into the hoppet. To
the intense horror of Atkinson and his
companions, however , the "hoppet" re.
mined at the bottom of the shaft, some
260 yards from the surface, and w'thin a
few feet of the four shots, rammed" home'
in the rock, which were expected to go off in
the course of a few, econds. To remain there
mean talmost certain death under terrible cit..
cumatancea. Atkinson leapt from the "hop.
pet," however, and extinguished the fuse at-
tached to one cartridge, but at that moment
the "hoppet" moved upwards. Atkinson, as
quick as thought, sprang forward, grasped
the edge of the " hoppet" with both hands,
and in that terrible position, with his body
and legs hanging down, he was rapidly
wound up the shaft. A few moments after
they had left the bottom of the shaft, 111e
three shots exploded with terrific force, and
the men escaped. the danger which had
threatened from that quarter. Whilst
ascending the shaft Atkinson, by a supreme
effort, raised himself sufficiently to rest one
arm upon the edge of the "hoppet," and in
that position finally reached the simian
after a frightful ascent. As may naturally
be imagined his life literally depended upon
his keen grasp of the iron " hoppet" and
his fellow -workmen warmly congratulated
him upou his escape from a terrible death.

The Most Astonishing 1Vledieal' Discovery of
the Last One Hundred Years.
It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar.

This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure of indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, and diseases 01' the general nervous system, It is
also of the greatest value in the cure of all forms of �'iling health front
whatever c-ubIse. It performs this by the great nervine tonic qualities
which it possesses, and by its great curative powers upon the digestive
organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares
with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strength-
ener of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a
broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in
the treatment and cure of diseases of the lungs than any consumption
remedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nerv-
ousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical
period known ns change, in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine
Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will
carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthener and cura-
tive is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great
energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten
or fifteen years to the lives of many of those who will use a_half dozen
bottles of the remedy each year.

family is heir are dependent on nervone exhaustion and impaired diges-
tion. When there is an insufficient supply of 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 are 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 labor imposes upon the nerves.
For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food he supplied.
This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the
essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts
for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de-
rangement.

To the Great Soadh. American. JLedli,ne Co.:
D0114 G6:01.8:-1 desire to say to you that I
have suffered for many years with a very serious
disease of the stomach and nerves. I tried every
medicine I could hear of, bet nothing clone me
any appreciable good until I was advised to
try your Great South American Nervier. Tonic
and Stomach and Liver Cure, and since using

prised at its wonderful powers to care the stom-

The Magic of a Pace.
One is sometimes templed to believe tha

" Beauty is its own excuse for being," but
does the desire to possess beauty excuse
these speoifio modes of obtaining it? and is it
really obtained by any such devices? The
ong(ng for outward loveliness must be in-
nate, for at every period of the world tneans
have been sought to make or mar the visage
in a000rdanee with crude artistic ideas of
attractiveness. Ia that cruel interview
where my lord Hamlet uses harshest words
tothe artless Ophelia he says: "I have
heard of your paintings too, well enough.
God has given you one face, and you make
yourselves another." A gentle Quakeress,
guileless of plagiarism, once modified this
accusation in a way that robbed it of all
malice and made it a wise and helpful
thought. To a young niece who waa be-
wailing her own lack of beauty she seed
tenderly, " The good Lord gave thee plain
features, but he left it to thee to make thine
own expression," The girl book her lesson
and learned it thoroughly, and now that
the graces of her amiable charaotr illumine
her face, none ever thinks of it as /,fain..
Her great wealth—and riches too of serve
as a cloak for unlovelinesa of mind or person
-is entirely lost sight of in the affluence of
noble womanly qualities, while her cutover
ted intellect and alfoctiontte disposition
give to her faoe that charm which is lacking

A SWORN CURE FOR ST. VITAS' DANCE OR CHOREA.
URAWwORDSVILLE, IND., June 22, 1887.
My daughter, eleven years old, was severely afflicted with St. Vitus' Dance
or Chorea. We gave her three and one-half bottles of South American Ner-
vine and she is completely restored. 1 believe it will cure every case of St:
Vitus' Dance. I have kept it in my family for two years, and am sure it is
the greatest remedy in the world for Indigestion and Dyspepsia, and for all
forms of Nervous Disorders and Failing Health, from whatever cause.
