One day, when the ocean was at rest, and its waters slieened and sparkled un¬ der the summer sun, an old man walked upon the sandy shore and sat down in the shade of a rock, to be alone by him¬ self. Above him was the blue canopy through have which the eyes of living jnen never penetrated—at his feet the waters which lmd rolled across a world to lap at the sandy shores of a ooati nent. And there was a lapping, arid a lap ping, and a grieving, and a sobbing as the waters laved the sand and fell back to break into patches of foam and go swirling along the shore, never to rest. I And the old man fell in a revery, and he [ whispered to himself i . “It is.liko the life of nohild—sunshine, tears, griefs, complaints, He, like the ocean, may The seem pulses to sleep, but there is no rest. never cease their throbbing—the until heart never stops beating death oomes.” Then a cloud rose slowly out of the sea and climbed into the heavens, and the wuters fretted and foamed and dash od about.

An Old Grafter, says in the New York Tribune: It matters little how. the graft its is set if only the cut which exposes wood and the line between bark and wood is made smoothly, so that it can at some point at least come into close con tact with the same line or face on the stock, for this line is the only one on which sew growth is made. The con tact must be close and held firmly either by a tie or by the natural pressure of a cleft stock. The wax used to cover every part of the wound closely and com free pletejy water tight, must not have any fat oc oil to soak out and clog^the circulation from cell to cell, and the for mat ion of new ones to effect the desired union. The grafts must be of sound wood, fresh and plump. Cherry and plum (which must be grafted early to secure the winter success) are usually kept through in compact moss, roasted saw dust or mould, to secure them from in jury they by winter winds and frosts by which arerliable to suffer, The stock should be cut back, so that the grafts may be set either near the col lar or near a main branch, in order to it* having The a sufficiently copious supply of sap. more we cut back the *moro young wood we are likely to grow, and the longer wo are likely to wait for fruit ing.

Good drainage is essential to a good garden; Cauliflower is a delicious vegetable, not as well known outside our large cities as it should be. Ilorses need extra care and plenty of time to eat in when first put to farm work in the spring. r l lie thorough use of currycomb and brush on horses and cows that are shed¬ ding their coats will puy. Plant. Lima beans on the poorest soil you have, supply no manure and stop the growth of vines at the top of the poles by successive pinchings. Cows that kick or draw milk from their udders should be sent to the butcher. Remedies to prevent such vices arc but not only useless as permanent cures, also troublesome to apply. When sheep are hurdled on small areas it should not be overlooked that in addition to the profit they telly give the animals distribute the n^fimre evenly, pressing it into the soil with their hoofs, which is quite an item if the expense of hauling manure be considered. Whenever sheep are afflicted with ticks or other animals with vermin, it indicates a low condition of the system, caused either by the vermin in the first place, or l>y improper feeding. The better the condition of the animals the less liability to attack. They will not improve until relieved, and the longer this be delayed the more difficult it will become. The deeper the preparation of the soil the deeper will the roots penetrate, thus advancing permitting closer to moisture, as well as of the growth of a large pro¬ portion of those rootlets that collect food. It the soil be shallow and the subsoil hard the roots will spread nearer the surface, thus rendering them not only more liable to from being drought. winter killed, but also to damage The supposition that young sows aiv better for breeding purposes than those two or three years old has (lone much to impair the vigor of swine. The custom of using young sows grew out of the loss of young pigs by pressure from the heavy dams, but a large breeding sow should not be fat and heavy. A sow over two years old will give more milk than younger one, and, as a rule, she will pro¬ duce stronger pigs. r i , n he reason poultry , Klucu mi i at , home, though young, is not us tender as that bought is at the market, is that the formei generally * not killed until wanted, and eaten 4 • still 4.11 • igid • i - 1li i death, i while \ lcn - is i w 1 4 that bought at the poulterer's has been killed at least hours—more often days, Poultry ought to be killed several davs Vi".; ,W,,| ,,t on,,, nnd, with, a few tuts of charcoal in it, hung in a cool place.

Doscciuling Wells. M. Grcbaut rtad a pstper recently be¬ fore the Paris Bioliflrb al Society nil “The prevention of accicbnls by sulYocation while descending wells.” After referring to the cause oi the suffocation, namely, carbonic acid gas and the well known expedient the of first lowering an animal into well, he gave the following directions for ventilation: A etc cpipe ten or twelve feet longer than the well is deep is to be secured by wires in the axis of the well; a grate on which a fire can be built i9 then to Ik? placed around this pipe at the level of the ground, and a second pipe, larger than the first, is then to be placed upon the grate, with the first pipe inside, and on the grate and be tw*eii the pipes a fire is to be built. The inner pipe being heated, a current is cre¬ ated; resulting in the ascent of the im¬ pure air of the well and its replacement by fresh air from without. • The world is the great tempter; but at the same time it is the great monitor. It stimulates our pride by its pomp and show, goads its fleeting honors and prizes; it men to the race, and inspires them with covetousness and rapacity, but, on the other hand, it is the great memento and evidence of its own vanfly, and of the emptiness of everything it offers to us.
