In makinag this selectimi. the Coamnit. tee are aware o1f' but oaaae geaeral rile ilo be oh. served, the selectima should be made from the carliett and heaalthiest stalks, haviang two or naore cars. ad froi lone other. It has been a question. somewhat maeeted, whether the up per or lower car shAould be taken, but is Itow generniy conceded that lie tops ear as to be preferred. A sati-tactoiry reasaotn may be as signed in favour of the top ear arising from the laws of vegetable physiology. The food of all vegetables is irst received into the 0mall vessela. with which the roots a-te saipplied, while it is held ia a tate of solation by wnter, 11ud convyed through the pith and spiracles af the stalk tothe leaves. when it undergoes nat essential chaaage anid is elaborated into saitable liment for the plant.

Sonme years .ince, having iihed our taying, (I resided then in New Coventry. C'onas.,) I took mny scythe anud went io lhe emaploy, for a short time, of David II. Warner, in Litchhleld county, whose grass was rather later than ours. and conseqnent-l ywas not yet all cut. At that time I lhad let known of any other way than to work 1ll dark and eat supper when we could. But Mir. Warner had supper uniformily, it six o'clock. WVhatever thei weather4 night be, and however pressing the work; night seem to be, lie requairced us all, at ix, to suspenad work andi 'come to tea."1 a it was called. This consisted of a slight -epatst twholesome and perhaps ri- her too olid, or I might say heavy, butt n,,t linu .iean'. Whlen. this n~eal was finished, w hieh ,ceupied, includling a little converstflion, about htalf an hour. we were pecrmitted to ,o to work againi if we choose. In gene al, however, all we did was to grind our ;cythes and get ready for the next day. I do noat say that when, by some unfor-I ceen occurrence-no accident or a shower -a very pressing necessi:y seemed to ex st of dlefe'rinlg supper half an hour, to get n a load of hay or oats, it was never dlone: 'or I believe it was so; though I saw no hinec of the kind while I was there.

And having began kietimes and got ahead of tfikir day's work, they were not obliged to mow so lnte in ihe forenoon in the great heat. As soon us the ground and.4wath. were dry enough to spread. .heirmowing was fitished for the day, and theyrire ready to atteud to is.

Our farners-especially those who do.not take tiny luncheon in the aftlaeonu-aed there are soate who do uno: -and who do'noi get ready to sit down to supper till 8 or 9 o'clock, are apt to eat too much. Some, it is true, lose their ap 'etite instead of haring it increased, but Ibese cases are not very numerus, and are dimittished somewhat by the cusom of t ta king something to give an appetite.
