AGRICULTURAL ‘Let idle Ambition her bauble pursue, While Wisdom looks down with disdain, The home of the Fanner has charms ever new’, VSTiere health, peace and competence reign. BOTH WANT®®, Bovs of spirit, hoys of will, Boys of muscle, brain and power Fit to cope with anything— Those are wanted every hour. Not the weak and whining drones, That all troubles magnify— Not the watchword of “I can't," But the nobler one, “I'll try." Do what e'er you have to do With a true and earnest zeal; Bend your sinews to the task— Put your shoulders to the wheel. Though your duty may be hard, Look not on it as an ill ;' If it be an honeat task, Do it witli an honest will. At the anvil or the farm, Whatsoever you may he— From your future efforts, hoys. Comes a nation's destiny. ~— - .. -*► - Ih-tills from Bearing Trees. Colman’s Rural Worll has ibe following : “From long experience, we have not been able to see a <!if fetcnce whether the cions be (tut from bearing trees or young ones in the nursery. The whole thing depends upon the stock upon which tho grafts ore worked. Will take the top of a seedling but one year old, graft it upon a bearing tree, and have fruit the third year, nine time3 out often; while the same seedling, if left to grow to bearing, would, in all probability, take eight or ten years. We hare often gath ered apples from nursery trees when they were but three years old. simply because in digging out other tree? near them, their root 9 got cut somewhat. The reason that in old times grafts bore, was owing to the fact that the stocks they grafted ■were somewhat stunted. Vigorous growth is always adverse to pro ductiveness. We never go to any trouble to get grafts from bearing trees, if we are sure of the variety . but when any uncertainty exists, by all means resort to the hearing ones.” The TOuliih! Dependence o( Bee* iifif! Flowers. The Less, Mr. Darwin says.have ■solved a difficult problem. They have made their ceils of a proper shapo to bold the gteatest possible amount of honey with the least pos sible consumption of precious wax in their construction. No human workman is skillful enough to do what a crowd of bees can do, work ing in a dark hi.v-e—make cells of wax of the true form. The number of bumble bees in the country will depend upon the number of cats How can that he ? Because the number of bees is dependent upon the number of field mice which eat the bees. Hence the more cats the fewer mice, and the fewer mice the more bees. If the whole genus of bumble bees hecamj extinct, or re ry rare, the heart's e3e and red clover would become rare or would •disappear. How is that ? Because bees promote the growth of those flowers. The visits of bee3 are ne cessary to the fertilization of some kinds of clover, and almost indis pensable to the fertilization of th<* heart's ease. In a word, no bees, no seed ; no seed, no increase of the flowers. The more visits from the bees, the more seed from the flower; the more seed from the flower, the moro flowers from the seeds Nearly all our orchidace- j ous plants absolutely require the visits of insects to remove their pollen masses, and thus to fertilize ' them. Twentyjieads of unprotect- j •ed Dutch clover yielded 2,900 seeds. Thesamo number protected from bees produced not one seed ; mo hundred heads of unprotected clover yielded 27,000, and the same number protected from bees, not a seed. Plant One Acre Less. Farmers can not afford to culti vate as much land as has been their wont. If proof of this assertion is required, just hitch up some day, drive through your own neighbor hood, aud examine tho farms there in ; you don’t want the trouble, then, just look at your own, and if not convinced, we will set you down 3> incorrigible The propa- ration that w neat-field received be fore sowing the seed, is an exem plification of the “one acre more” dogma. Your plowing is like beau ty, but skin deep. “What is the matter with your potatoes?” “Oh, they want rain.” “Is that all. indeed ?” “Your corn field looks as though it would need powerful tonics to be enabled to survive the season.” “Yes, it don’t look very healthy, but 1 have been so hurried, had so much to do and so little to do with, that I find it utterly impossibly to give each and every crop the atten tion I suppose it ought to receive. “Then, my dear sir, pardon a lit tle frankness, you have mistaken your vocation, and have no busi ness upon a farm. You can no more afford to have such crops of wheat, potatoes and corn, than veil can keep a poor horse, cow or hog. You can't afford to raise such lux uriant crops ol weeds as you do.— You can't afford to u-e such poor tools. If vour State or county shout! offer for the poor rst farm, von can’t afford to live upon them, even if you should win, which is tint at ill unlikely. Above ill, you can't afford to plant ont acre more ! Sell off a portion, and applv the funds therefrom to the benefit of the remainder. Have good implements good help, and we will warrant good crops and good times. Plant one. acre lets, and do it well. The cultivation of a large amount of land, as the.process is perform ed by many agriculturists, is a waste of labor and fertility —impov erishing both the tiller and the scil Sound judgment, we think, will de monstrate that large crops per acre, a? a genera! rule, are the most pro fitable, and experiment will verify it It jdimild tie the aim of the far mer to sustain the richness of Ins land, and this can lie done only by reducing the breadth tin let- plow, proportionately to Ills capacity for a Up! ving such fertilizing materials as will return the eletue ts taken therefrom by the crop. “A little farm well tilled,” gladdeneth the heart, but i breadth of acres culti vated in a slovenly manner, is a blight upon the interest of is own er, and an evil in the sight of man.’ -[Ex. Nmllcss M liicrmcious. The Sutter '’alifor'iiu Banner says : “We are informed by Mr. William Mawsou one of the champion water melon grower of Sutter county, of a novel way of producing seedless water melons. When the vine begins to bear lie lets the fust watermelon on each branch grow undisturbed, but covers the branch up with dirt from the first melon to the second one, and within sis Belies or more from the end of the vine will be a seedless watermelon, the melon nearest the be dy of the vine hav ing kept all th ■ seed ” tirecnc f’oimty Mortgage Sheriff Sales.
