Don’t Allow Talent to Hi st. Vs
by- constant friction steel is kept
highly polished, so by constant oxer-1
else is talent ever at its brightest. All
Ur powers grow by use. If we neg
lect to cultivate the habit of observa
tion, we might as well walk through
the world blindfolded. We lose our
faculty what the artists call our
fSHHMIk” - by neglect of practice on
other tilings beside the piano. The
man who seldom reads, reads slowly;
the woman whose writing is confined
to an infrequent, letterto some absent
child,spends more time over that
than does a practiced writer over a
half dozen pages of manuscript. Kx
erciso of possessed talent, is absolute
ly woessai v. then, if we would retain
our gifts. For example, if our occu
pation is sedentary, we need plans for
walks, rides, and active games, to
keep our muscles lithe aud service
able. But If our employment gives |
us enotmh muscular action, it is not
loss important to our health of body
that we should plan t< >r mental exer-!
else—for employment of enough of
our memory and reasoning powers to
keep them from rusting. And in
either ease, that life must lie a dwarf
ed and unhealthy one that does not |
provide exercise 'for our spiritual fac
ulties, for worship and charity at and
patience and magnuninii: v. Kxerciso
of soul, mind and body can alone
bring us to it.
How >ick Bowers wo* *an slit.
Nick Bowers was a member of the
origiuai Christy .Minstrels, and in his
day was the greatest “middle man
interrogator" known in the profes
sion. .Nek used to tell, with great
jnerrincnl, an Incident of his hoy- j
hood.l To preserve lie flavor of the
relation, we will record it in Nick's
own language, and only regret, that
we cannot accompany it with his in
imitable gesticulations.
“My old man,” said Nick, “as a
general thing, was u pretty steady old
gent, but. once in a while he would
get oblivious, and water was not the
couse of it. I recollect a certain hol
iday was approaching, and I lmd ;
beau skinning around to get a little
money tt> have a time with on that
day ; but the fates and the purses i
were against me. It was but two
days prior to the anticipated holiday,
and I hadn’t 'nary a red. Remember
this, boys, when I add that on the
same afternoon I came into the
house, when lo! there on the floor,
totally overcome by his libations, lay
my respected daddy, uu.l beside him j
Jay six shining hall dollars which had
rolled from his pockot. Boys, I’ve
been an honest man ail my life, but
(Micewhen a boy I committed a theft.
I hooked one of those half dollars.
Thinks I to myself, the old man’s
been on a jamboree, and won’t know
how much he spent, and will never
miss it. But niai k you, the m-xt
morning I and my two brothers were i
summoned into my father’s presence.
The old man’s face lowered, and I
thought of the half dollar, and knew
that a storm was brewing.”
“Boys," said he, “lust night when
I came home I had six half dollars.
One of ’cm’s gone. Your mother
didn’t take it. There’s been no one
else in tie house. Which one of you
took it ?"
We all protested our innocence.
“Boys, said the old man, “that
half dollar never walked off, and I’m
going to find out which one of you
took it V”
Turning around, he took down from
the wall an old flint-lock blunder
buss. Tlds he deliberately load, and
with powder and buckshot in our
presence; then, fastening it on the
table, cocki 1 it, took a seat behind,
holding a string in his hand, and in
solemn tones addressed us thtisly :
“Boys,” I’m going to discover the
thief and punish him at the same
time. You must each of vou blow
into the muzzle of that guii. When
the guilty one blows, off goes Ids
head. Now. then, you have a chance;
will you own up, or blow up ?”
“Ben,” said the old man to rnv old
est Mother, “have you got that half
dollar a”
“No, hlt .”
“Take a blow.”
“Nick. !eh, boys, I tell you the
chills beg in to roll down my backi,
“got that half dollar ?”
“No, sir,” said I, with a defiant
swagger.
Blow that gun.”
I wailo and up bravely, gave a Mow,
and-—dodged!
“Niek." said the old man in a voice
of thunder, “where is that half dol
lar ?"
He ha ! me. The truth dodged out i
of me. Said I, “out in the barn,
pap.”

Directions for Compost liik Manures.
Columbus, On,, Jan. 6, 1874.
Editor Daily Times: It may not
prove uninteresting to your readers,
especially the farmers to have by
them valuable directions for compost
ing manures. The result of our ex
perience should be known to each
other, and I hope that is sufficient
apology for troubling you with this
communication;
Many formulas are now being used
for Composting Manures, and they
I are more or less valuable in propor
tion to the amount of I’lios/iliurk-
Acid, Nitroyen, [Amenta] Potash,
Lime,and Vegetable matter thev con
tain.
All these elements of plant, food ex
ist in Stable, (’owlet, and other do
mestic manures. But the quantity of
domestic manure made on the farm
alone, and unaided, is not usually
adequate to manure all the cultiva
ted land. It is therefore the interest of
the farmer to so increase the powers
of his domestic manures by the addi
tion of chemicals that he will be en
abled to economically manure all his
cultivated lands every year, and
thereby secure good returns for his
labor.
Phosphoric Acid is usually supplied
to lund iu the form of Ground Bones,
or some of the Phosphates.
Xitroyen is usually supplied in the
form of Nitrate of Soda or Sulphate
of Amonia.
Potash is usually supplied in the
form of Muriate of Potash and ashes,
Lime is usually supplied in the form
of Common Lime or Land Plaster.
A good formula for combining all
these, which may be varied to suit
the land, or the particular crop in
tended to be grown, is as follows;
Acid Phosphate 2tK) lbs.
Nitrate of Soda or Sulphate
Amonia, 60 lbs.
Muriate Potash, 60 lbs.
Land Plaster. 'UK. lbs.
Thoroughly mix the above ingredi
ents with at bushels of Cotton Seed,
or 15 bushels of rich dirt ; then add
the whole to about loot) lbs. of good
Stable or Cowlot manure, taking care
to moisten the whole, by sprinkling
!on water during the mixing. Then
let it stand under shelter until plant
ing time, -if it is two or three
months, so much the better.
Watch it, and if it should become
very warm, it will be best to work it
over to prevent excessive beat.
Strew about ;!00 lbs. to the acre, in
the drill, for Corn or Cotton.
Broad east about GOO lbs. to the
acre, for wheat, or oats, or potatoes.
On oak and hickory lands you may
omit tlie potash.
No one need expect good returns
from Chemical Fertilizers unless the
| land is well supplied with vegetable
matter; and it is not less important
to have good cultivation. Subsoil
well under the Corn and Cotton, and
do not permit the weeds and grass to
absorb the strength of the manures.
