The Fun In Farming. C. D. Jones, a Western farmer, thus ventilates himself in the l<arm,]£ield and titOf man : m I here is a great deal of fun in a farmers life, so the agricultural books try to make out. Many non-farmers read some agricultural journal and get the idea that farming is the easiest and most pleasapt occupation. How dc lighfcful it is to work in the beauti ful fields on a midsummer day and listen to the birds sing their sweet -T!’ ies. It must . be ' delightful indeed to hear the birds, with the sweat steaming oil a person’s face,and he expecting every moment to be sunstruck. 1 Where is the fun in the hay field, with the dust and dnt fiyiug aud sticking to you? Who loves to help at threshing time? Not the average mac. Very few farmers have less than a solid week’s threshing, while many do not get off that easy, Still, books try to make out, a farmer’s life is pleasant.. These agricultural writers never, or hardly ever, mention the coldness of a pitch-fork fhe stables handle must on be a winter’s cleaned morning, and out bedded well. The mangers must all be filled with hay or straw, the horses curried and watered, the cattle out to the well where thmji&aaieftnbtinfs the platfo rm andj^ vergg with the pump This While he is at pleasant (?) job, the snow is blow ing up into his ears, mouth and eyes. I have heard farmers say, “the stock is always the thirstiest on the coldest morn bigs-” After this is finished, ye farmer takes himself, with a pail of water in each hand, to the hog pen. Some have a well near tbeir hog pen, but there are mauy more who have not. Barely a morning passes but what a little (just a little) water is spilled on his ilothes to freeze. Next comes the all important job of hauling fodder, This caps the climax, if I may so speak, for this surely is the worst. With the scoop shovel, knife, and the hayrack ceeds upon the sled, ye farmer pro¬ to the fodder field. This is the way he goes at it: First,he takes the scoop, and shovels nearly a ton of scow away from the shock. Next, he takes the kuife aud cuts the band, and with blood in his eye tackles the shock. You can imagine what fun it is, wrest¬ ling with fodder, snow and wind all at the same time. The books leave out this pait,and just tell of the fun in a farmer’s life, which is very little, as I can tell you. *■ It is not very pleasant to go down to the city and get cheated out of about fifty per cent, of your money by rascals on every side. The farmer gets cheated and lied to more than any other laborer. He unconsciously gets beaten by coal dealers, grain buyers, merchants and Other persons, too numerous to mention. We would be very thankful if some one would point out the fun in the life of the farmer, for one, I have not found it. If there is any such thing, it is be¬ yond our comprehension. We have little faith in the old song: “The farmer, for the farmer forever, . Three cheers the plow, spade and hoe." Farm and Garden Notes. Be sure the calves are in a warm place. Have the stables warm, but give ven¬ tilation. Figs like to champ soft coal “slack.” Give them some. There is nothing like dispatch in the routing of farm labor. If you live too far from the mill to get cracked com easily, raise the dwarf pearl corn to feed to the chicks. Ten acres of corn put into silo will keep treated as in many cat'le as forty acres the ordinary way. Ducks can be hatched at any time and during the plumage year, but is much secured better hatching growth finer by early. On very cold nights a large flock will be more comfortable than a small one, as th ;re will be more warmth in the poultry he use. [f you are crowding the hogs with a he vvy corn ration, be sure they haws a fu anld 1 and free suppy of charcoal, ashes salt. The great source of contagion fowl should is the drinking water. A sick never be allowed to drink from the same vessel as others. Don’t keep the sows you are going to breed and the hogs you are fattening in the same pen. They need different feed to do their best. There is sometimes difficulty in get¬ ting the butter to float in a mass on top of the buttermilk so that the latter can bo readily drawn off wit hout carrying the butter with it. A little brine or a handful or two of salt stirred into the mass is said to be a remedy. Tile Evolution of the Steeple, As the very earliest churches had no bells, and therefore no belfries, there were no spires. When bells they were first used to summon worshippers were small and were suspended in small bell turrets or bell cots. After large bells wiere made high and rich and imposing steeples Communities were erected for their reception, vied with each other to n ake them as magnificent as possible a I( 1 in the number of bells they placed ii i them. They seem in early instance* t vhave been placed at the west end-of e lurches, probably in continuation of t ic custom in vogue before they were re c aired of placing strong towers there for. t ie purpose of defense. Eventually, central towers were adopted, in cruci f >rm buildings especially. These com j ined the purpose of a belfry, with the 8 ddition of a vast open space in the in t jrior, which gave light and grandeur to jSmall edifices may have been con tU:nt with low conical spires or spirelets in iissed, these remote times; but as years lioro succeeding builders made them and more pointed or needle-like, an d generally of the same height as tho towers on which they were placed, Every church tower was either finished with a spire or intended to be so finished !lt a future time. London when seen f rom a distance is said to have presented the aspect of a forest of spires. There were particular carried laws of construction al ways out, which need not be described except to mention that much of the sober, soar ing, light,and nicturesque effect of their outlines is the result of the clever treat n.pnt .1 of tlm transition i from the annum square of f the tower * to * .u the form of the pyramidal octagon. Recorded particulars concern ing tbeir erection are extremely rar . but more frequently in old wardens wardens’ amounts accounts there mere are are entrie enure which mention is made of them. >. » instance, the church wardens of Ludvii recorded in 1345: “In primis payd key to the dore that goothe up into stipleid. Thomas 1 ’ And again, in 1550: “To the Season for gowinge up into stiple ij. wjudy nyghtes to save the glase ther in the wyndowis, xd.” The materials used differed according to the locality of their erection. Besides stone and timber covered with lead, we have examples covered with slates, and other! with oaken shingles. This lastcovering is seen only on the spires of village churches in our southernmost counties. —Chambers's Journal. We Have (15,000 Poets.

It seemes to be fashionable now to drive mules. If you get a good pair of mules they are much more desirable (that is if you want to;be in the fashion) than horses. Quite frequently now I see in tho Park or up on the road several gayly painted little traps with several gayly painted little ladies with very dark-colored little footmen drawn by a pair of mules. They see» to attract a great deal of attention, which to me is a matter of no little wonder. I never saw anything attractive in a mule. I would much rather look at a mule, though, than drive behind one. Still, as society sanctions mules, and wo musn’t buck against society, it doesn’t do to be too critical. There are many other places where mules cau be seen without going half the distance to Central Park. Just look into the windows of the Avenue Club some day when you are passing by. But these kind of mule9 don’t know enough to draw a cart, and so scarcely merit our attention .—Nat York News. Advert 1 i i.

LONGEVITY. Scientific men see no reason why the span of human life may not be extended to a round hundred years from the present limit of seventy to eighty years. The age to which persons lived varies in Old .testament chronology. from Adam’s time to that of Methuselah and Noah, nigh men are recorded as attaining to well the age of 1,000 years. The Psalmist Da¬ vid, however, Bays : “The days of our age aft; threescore yeat s and ten ; and though men be so is their strong that they come to fourscore years, yet strength then but labor and sorrow; 1! .so £ °“b Tin's parseth it away, and we are gone.” wiih wide margin of longevity, together eal proper laws, observance lead* investigators of mental, to moral believe and it pin¬ is pos¬ sible that human life might be made to in¬ crease in length of days to a full century, at least. Moderalion and regularity in eating, drink¬ ing and sb epuig are conducive to longevity, and those who observe proper habits and use pure and efficacious remedies when sick, nny jury accomplish themselves immense labor with no apparent in¬ to and without foreshortening tlieir lives.
