The Huron Expositor, 1878-06-28, Page 6$ow to Keep the Boys at Mini*
" A Farmer's Son," in. an intellige tt
letter to the Rare World, gives wank
statement of his views as to the reason
why the young folks leave the Marm,and
the meansmost likely to stop the exodus.
There is good sense in what he says, and
lit is worthy the considerM(on of all con-
cerned.
Farmers' boys are human, and just
as long as the present tread -mill system
f farming is pursued, just so long will
hey crowd into cities that are already
to overfowing,And stand behind
ounters at starvation salaries, or try to
bow their way into processions that
elbow
only one chance in ten of making 1
a living. Fanning, as conducted by a
great many (I do not say that all far-
mere: are so), is a perfect drudgery. I do
not wonder that their sons tire of, and
become willing to do anything in a city 1
rather than farm. If a farmer owns a
good farm and has three or four sons,or
five or six, (which very often happens);
instead of contenting himself with
enough„ he, imagines he hasn't half land
enough for the boys, so he buys another
farm and goes in debt for it. Then
commences.the struggle to pay interest
- and meet payments. The farmer works
and his family work. They work from
Monday morning till Saturday night,
and some of them on Sunday. They
have no time for recreation and no in-
clination for it. The house goes un-
painted ' and the yard fence tumbles
down. Improvements cost tithe and
money, and the farmer who is in debt
can spare neither. Is it strange that
boys and girls too, become weary of a
pursuit out of which all the . brightness
seems to be crushed. . There is no rea-
son why a farmer's: life and a farmer's
home should not be just as pleasant as
anyone's, if he will content himself
without owning all .the land that .joins
him. Instead of trying to buy out his
neighbors, he should devote some of =his
spare cash to the improvement of his
home. Ile should have books• and mu-
sic and pictures. If there is t.ny music-
al talent in the family he should culti-
vate it. Instead of stopping to consider
what the cost of a mnsioal instrument
would amount to a hundre4years hence
at compound interest, he should con-
sult the present good of his family, and
get one. Whenever farmer's sons and
daughters can have mote of the pleas
ant things in life and less of the toil
and self-denial, then and not till then,
will they be satisfied to stay on the
farm and help to make it what it really
is: (if rightly conducted), the most pleas-
ant of all pursuits.
Care of Lawns.
The appearance of the lawn is to a
house what a good, honest face is to a
person—an index of the inner character.
A neatly kept lawn. requires ° constant
attentiou, although after the first work
of making and planting it, the labor of
} ditaintaa,ining it is not onerous. Since
the advent of lawn mowers the general
appearance of lawns has been much bet-
ter when they y h scythes.
The sod becomes dense through fre-
quent shaving, and the surface is made
smooth by the passage over it of the
sharp mower . and a roller combined.
Weeds are killed out at the same time
by the constant cutting. But yet these
is something to be learned in regard to
the proper keeping of a lawn. Generally
they are too much cut up by paths and
planting of trees and shrubs. This nar-
rows the expanse and makes a large
lawn look smaller than it really is. The
boundary may be varied by;.: winding
paths and clumps of shrubs with larger
1 trees scattered behind them. The large
trees have a better effect when behind
`;, the dwelling, furnishing a good back-
a;
ack-
r ground for this, and shading the out-
buildings from observation. But the
• close -Shaven, dense, dark -green turf is
the glory, of .the lawn-; and this can only
be scoured by good management. There
roust be the right kinds of grass, the
proper fertilizer and constant cutting.
The grasses best adapted for lawns are
Kentucky blue grass, Rhode Island bent,
and red -top with a moderate sprinkling
of white clover. All these have a low
creeping habit, a good calor and fine
foliage. One bushel of each of these
grass -seeds is not too much, half an
acre, with 4poun.ds of white clover. ; To
sow the lawn with 'good compost, free
from seeds of weeds, in sufficient quan-
tity to entirely cover the surface with a
light dressing. Then after a final rak-
ing and. rolling, the seed. will come up
evenly and quickly. A lawn,.. of more
than half an acre should be cut with a
horse mower. The labor of pushing a
large-sized hand mower onee a week
through rapidly growing grass is too
great for aa. workman, and the smallest
size is entirely too heavy for a woman
in pursuit of healthful exercise to han-
dle. A grass plot large enough for a
croquet ground, will require a`it out man
to keep it closely shaven once - .a week.
Only artificial fertilizers, or thoroughly
well rotted,frne compost should be fused,
lest weeds should be introduced. Fine
bong flour, nitrate of soda, Peruvian
guano, gypsum, and wood ashes are all
excellent for etiuulating thegr•owth and
color of grass. Nitrate of socia, at the
rate of 200 pounds per acre, with 400
ponnds of gypsumevill give a deep green
color, and cause a thick luxuriant growth
of grass, which, by being mown in suc-
cessive portions each day, will be siffi-
cient to feed. at least one cow per acre
through the summer, and may feed two
with the Addition of four quarts of mixed a
meal and Middlings. No -grass is so
sweet or giv, so rich a color to butter as
lawn clippings, either green or made
into hay. •
A Clandestine Marriage..,]
Newish circles are considerable `,ex-
cited over the clandestine marriage of
-one of their fairest daughters to a
young Irish attorney of Cincinnati.
The facts, as developed, .are briefly
Mese :.About four years ago the resi-
deuce of Babbi Wise was visited fre-
quently by a young lawyer named
Jaiiies Maloney, who was a friend of
one of the Rabbi's sons. In these visits
he beeaanaa• acquainted with Helen
Vise, a sister of his Sewish friend, who
was then 16 years old. The acquaint-
ance soon resulted in. an engagement,
which was kept a secret from the girl's
friends. About two years ago the
learned Rabbi, having reason to sus-
pect that the attentions of Maloney to
his daughter were a little too constant
forbade him to enter the house. No -

registered asman and wife,and a few days
after the bride went back to her home
and demanded her trunks, which - were
already packed. No one was- in the
house but her stepmother and the ser-
vants, and the trunks were delivered.
Soon the affair was noised abroad in
Hebrew circles, and there was a com-
motion. The Rabbi sent word to his
daughter that hereafter he would not
recognize het an did not wish her to
recognize him a lso, that he would not
have her name entioned in his family.

Eva's Opinion About Pat
ch-
worIK Quilts:
The following sensible letter is from
a correspondent pf the Michigan Far-
mer. We recommend it to the perusal
of all the wives and, daughters whoread
the EXPoentec.— D.
All may not thk as I do upon this
subject, l}ut it seems to me that all who
have an , eye to €comfort, convenience
and physical we are, cannot fail ,to
agree with me thet far too much time
is spent by many housekeepers in this
—I was about to eaytiseless occupation,
and indeed it seems to me that much
of. ,the " patches rk piecing " of the
present day his altogether a`= useless em-
ployment of time and labor. Since.. the
'days of our grandmothers" patch-
work quilts have been aal- the "rage,"
and°no girl wa then allowed to enter
matrimony without at least a dozen of
hese fancy bed-ilpreads. This might
ave been all very well in those days
when calicos were high and it became
necessary to practise economy by savi-
ng the tittles, but at present,when
calicos can be bought for six and seven
cents a yard, . or even less, it is not
economy to waste one's time and ener-
gies in piecing that which, bought by
he yard, and made up with little time
and labor, will make not only better
ut warmer and more durable bedding.
The fashion among ladies now -a -days

n order to do this they cut their goods
into blocks no ?larger than a postage
tamp for the purpose of sewing them.
up again. Only think of the time and
the work, to say nothing of the -thread,
xpended upon .a quilt like this. It is ,
well enough far those who cannot af-
rdoto. buy counterpanes to have a few
f these home-made coverlets to fill
heir place, but•counterpanes are cheap,
and in the hours you are spending on
iece-work you could easily earn
enough to buy .half a dozen of them,
and I am sure you will find that they
are much nicer, last longer, wash easier

assure you„girls, you 'can use your
lei
moments to much better ad-
antage. Learn . to . make the boys'
oats, pants and vests, not only for the
urpose of taking.this extra, ambunt of

et married, as of course you wi.� , when
the "right one” comes along. you do

ind, or if you do not care to study or
ad, go out and exercise and breathe
e pure air of heaven, and it will bene -
you more than a thousand patch-
rk quilts. We women, even if wel
e farmers' wives and daughters, get
ne tco much out of door exercise at
st, and after baking, broiling and;
swing over the kitchen stove - ally the

t of door exercise and recreation of

as that of the "dress. Her i hat,
or her bonnet, was also, of the' same
material, and was without ornament of
any kind. As a bonnet has strings, I
believe, and a hat has, net, it was
probably a hat ; for no woman not in-
humanly disposed 'could conceal by a
ribbon the inner outline of such a cheek
as hers ; . and she was not.inhuman. In
her dainty ears were small dull -gold
ear -rings, set with =turquoises, which
were matched by the brooch which con-
fined a lace frill around her lovely
throat. • Her eyes were bine, her brow
fair; her mouth had the child -like
s a sweetness which Murillo gave to the lips
most of his Virgins;' in expression her face
e is was cherubic, She apparently had no
cast other luggage than a small Russia
ible. leather bag, which she put into the
age. rack above our heads. We sat in si-
ased .lence; for there was no occasion for my
speaking to her, and she looked mostly
out of the window. After we had pass-
ed one or two 'stations she took - down
the little hand bag, opened it, took out
a bottle and a small silver cup, and
turning herself somewhat moore to the
window poured something �irt} to the cup
and drank it .off at draught. I did
not see what she drank, but in an in-
stant I knew. The perfumfilled the
whole carriage. It was brandy ; and

Terrific ¢Storm at Canton,
China.
The Consul at Canton reports to the
Department of the State that a terrible
tornado passed over that city on the
llth of April last, causing a great de-
struction of life and property. The
whirlwind came from the sea in the
form of a water -spout, and struck the
shore on the foreign settlement of Sta-
meen, passing thence in a north east-
ernly direction through the crowded
part of the City of Canton. The aver-
age breadth of the track left by the
tornado is 600 feet. Although many
houses were destroyed in the foreign
settlement, no life was lost there, and
the cases of remarkable escapes from
death were numerous. The United
States Consulate was just beyond the
track of the storm, and . no American
property was damaged. In the native
city' it is •estimated that 10,000 persons
were killed. Owing to the narrowness
of the streets, the work of removing
the dead bodies from the wreck made
slow progress, and would take several
weeks to accomplish.
The weather was very hot, and the
fearful stench from decomposing bodies
led many to fear the outbreak of a pes-
tilence.

Cheddar Cheese.
An English writer on cheese says -the
second-class Cheshire•cheese (as well as
all second-class cheese) has been very
much damaged by the competition from
the other side of the Atlantic, which iso
now so great.- The ;Canadian cheese,
even more than the American, is like
the Cheshire not only in color and tex-
ture, but also in taste, and it is gradu-
ally being preferred in the more south-
ern markets to all except the very finest
makes of Cheshire cheese.

Silk Worms.
The• - department of agriculture at
Washington is now turnirigits attention
to the propagation of silk worms. A
shipment from Japan has just been re-
ceived, and is now being hatched for
distribution in different sections of . the
country. Where are the feeders, and
where is the feed to sustain this new
class of live stock ? We can't see in what
kinds of usefulness this proposition can
be made profitable.

—.The following letter was sent to
the Montreal Witness, displaying at
least one philanthropic heart' in that
turbulent city : Sir, --Reading in the
T'Pvines8 an extract from a Tetter of a
missionary to China, describing the ter-
rible famine existing there, I was par-
ticularly struck with -the statement that
a cent and a half would keep a man
alive for ten days, in other words, that
fifty-five cents would. serve to prevent a
fellow -being dying from starvation for.
one year. Could there be a stronger ap-
peal than this to Christians to give of
the' comparative abundance God has
blessed them with in this country, and
stint 'lame one of their luxuries .to help
a fellow creature for the Saviour's sake.
Will you kindly forward the enclosed §5
to the Secretary for the Chinese Famine
Relief Fund, whose •address I do not
know. Yours,—X. Montreal, June
