The Rhubarb is a perennial, herbaceous plant, with leaves larger than the burdock, and can be raised with very little trouble, if the ground is made rich. Two or three stalks will afford the niaterials for a dozen or iore pies. The seed ripens in July, and should be sown early in the fill. They may be readily transplanted in the fall or spring. The pie plant is now found in most gardens, but from neglect it is often grown badly. It requires the richest soil, and to grow the stems of sufficient size, the soil must be made deep and rich with the best manure. Its vast roots will penetrate into the mellow loam, and send their runners in all directions, as it is a iost voearious feeder. To have stems of large size, from eighteen to twenty inches in length and two inches or more in diameter, it must be provided with the ne cessary ingredients to subsist upon. It re quires a noist soil, and will not grow to any size unless such be provided. The follow ing directions will insure its success in the driest gardens. Plant the best variety-the Victoria, or Downing's Collozs d, in a shady situation and in a soil enriched as recom 2nended, then cover the earth about the roots to the depth of two inches with straw, chips, or other substance of a similar character. Next procure an old barrel with both heads out, and place it one foot from the plant on end. Then fill it full of ianure, good and strong from the stable, cowpen or hog yard, so tightly trod together that it will take some time for the water to drain through, but not so close as to hold it. Each night pour into this barrel a pail of water. The soapsuds saved from washing would be better. Fol low this up regularly during April, May and June, and you will have no cause to coin plain of slender stems. To have early leaf stalks for pies, place the barrel with both heads out over the plant, and pile a few' bushels of manure around it. By keeping the manure well moistened, the plant will grow rapidly inside the barrel, and the stems being protected will be beautifully blanched. The following is the best recipe for making rhubarb tarts: Take the young, green stalks of the plant, and having peeled off the thin skin, cut into small pieces about an inch long, then put them into a sauce pan with a plenty of brown sugar and its own juice, cover it and let it stew slowly till it is soft enough to mash to a marmalade. Then set it away to cool. Have ready some fresh baked shells; fill them with the stewed rhu barb and grate white sugar over the top. For covered pies, eut the rhubarb very small and mix a plentiful supply of sugar, and put it in raw. seasoii u h iutmeg, orange peel to your taste. ike the pies about three quarters of' an hour.-.i gricu'lturalist. H1OW TO USE GUA10. The allowing directions respecting the use oft guo are from the London Mark Lane Expre~ss. We are awvare that the first rule giveni has been made the subject of' doubt, but are still convinced that it holds good in most case. First.-Never mix it with anything ; all limec, compost, ashes, and similar ingredients. too often contain enough caustic alkali to drive oil' the .amnmonical parts before the soil can surround and absorb them. A vast amount of mischief and loss often follows this sad mistake. If applied alone, the soil wvill best adapt it for plants. Seconl.-Mix as much as possible with the seed, not too deeply, but plow it in after sowing it broadcast, unless it be for beans or drilled and ridged crop, wvhen it may be sown on tihe surface before the ridges are made. T/, ird.-If applied as a top dressing, al ways apply it, if possible. before rain, or' when snow is on the ground ;and if on ara ble land, harrow, hoe, or seutie, if possible. immediately after the operation. Four th.-The best mode: to apply it is by water. A slight solution of' it is by far the most powerful and speedy apaplication. Fifth.-If sowed with drilled grain, or indeed any seed whatever, it should never come in contact. It is not a bad planr to sow broadcast, after the corn drill, and thenm harrow, as it is kept in the nearest proximi ty to the seed, without comning in contact with it. Lastly.-Be sutre to get, if possible, the genuine article ; cheap guano there is none. The quantity of geniuinie guano per acre used is from two to three hundred pounds. The latter quantity when the land is defi cient and requires speedy renovation. BONES FOR FRUIT TREES. A good deal is said of the value of bones. and yet not one cultivator in ten thinks enough of them to save them. Even the' refuse bones of his own kitchen are quite likely-thrown into the street. When bones can Ibe had in the villages for a merely nom inal sum, he does not think of purchasing them. There is no better material for th(' border of fruit trees, grape-vines, anid the small fruit-bearing shrubas; and everyv fruit grower, that has not done planting, should keepa a stock of old bonmes on hand, so that every new border many be well furnished wvith this planit food. For inmmediate effect the bones should be dissolved in sulphuric acid or ground into fine dust. Butt for the larger fruits and vines, bones crushed with a hammer will answer (juite as well. anad two or three bushels miay be put in each border for an applc or pear tree. The crushing of the bones may be done under cover, and muakes good work for rainy days. If the trees are already planted, the crushed bones may be dug in among the roots. If worked into the soil of cultivated lands, or eveni spread uaponm pastures, they will give a sure. though a slow return. The eagerness with which plants take up this kind of food nmay be easily discovered by digging up bones uinder trees and grape-vines, when it will be seen that the roots hnave covered the bones with a net work of fibres, and eve-n penetra ted their substance. Save all the bones, and buy) themn if you would hatve fine fruits and take the premiumms. A lRsemer'i Wonrur ONE Tuor'sAND Dol. unsmc.-Take one pound of salsoda and half a pound of' unslacked lime, put themi in a gallon of waiter and boil twenty minutes; let it stand till cool, then drain ofi, and put it in a stone jug or jar. Soak your dirty clothes over night, or until they are well wet through, then wring them out and rub on plenty of soap, and in one boiler of clothes well covered over with water, add one teaspoonful of the washing fluid. Boil half an hour briskly, then wash theta tho roughly through one suds, and rinse well through waters, and your clothes will look better than- the old way of washing A-ice before boiling. This is anr invaluable receipt, and I do want every poor tired woman to try it. I think with a patenit wash tub to do the little rubbing, the wash wvoman might tuke the last novel and compose herself on tke lone, and let the washing do itself. The woman can keep a secret has known this a year or two, but her husband told it while on an electioneering tour. So says the 0hio Cultivator. IMPROVED WuEEL TIRES.-An improve ient is chronicled in the arrangement of tires for wheels, so that the wheels may run, at different times, on hard and soft land, as circumstances may require. To this end, the tire for the wheel is rolled on its exteri or surftee with a projecting longitudinal rib, wiheh may be square or rounded, so that when the wheel is on hard road or substance, the tire would run on its longitudinal rib; but when on soft land or substance, the rib will penetrate, and the whole breadth of the tire will rest on the land or surface. When the wheels are passing over hard ground they run on the ribs of the tire, and of course there is less friction on the draft; and when on soft land the tire will offer a broader bearing surface, peculiarly suited for run. ning on such land. Piekled eggs are excellent eating, they are prepared by first boiling hard, and then divested of their shells, placed in earthen jars, and scalded vinegar poured upon them, seasoned with whole pepper, allspice ginger and cloves. When the pickle is cold, the jars are closed, and the eggs are in capital eating order in a nionth after, and will keef for a year or more. The farm house epi cures hold this dish in high esteem. OUR DAILY BREAD. A beggar-boy stopped at a rich ian's door "I am houbeless and friendless, and faint an6 poor," Said the beggar-boy, as the tear-drop rolled Down his thin cheek, blanched with want an cold "Oh! give me a crust from your board to-day To help the beagar-boy on his way!" "Not a crust nor a crumb," the rich man said, "Be off, and work for your daily bread !" The rich man went to the parish church His face grew grave as he trod the porch And the thronging poor, the untaught mass, Drew back to let the rich man pass. The service began-the choral hymn Arose, and swelled thro' the long aisles dim; Then the rich man knelt, and the words he saiI Were-" Give us this day our daily bread!" TIE CHRISTIAN'S HOPE. What a blessed thing is the Christian Hope. It sheds hope on every afiliction. lightens every sorrow, and adds brightnesS to every joy. I[ow many care-worn we:iry ones would have sunk into the depths of despair, had it not been for tie blessed hope which shone through every cloud, and whi. pered of a heaven of rest and peace beyond this vale of tears. When assailed by the malicious tongue of slander, and pierced to the heart by unkindiess, how snimothing ly does thme thought comec over the mind. Our Saviour sutfered all this, anid knows how to feel for us; for he was tempted in all points even as we are." 0! yes, prince. less beyond hauman estimation in the hope of the Christian which is founded on the Rock of Ages. Surely no onie, who ever tasted the joy (of such a hope, would ever desire to turn back to thme pleasures of earth. True, darkness and doubts will oftimnes ob scure the light, but it is only for a time and such seasons of gloom only serve to drawi us more strongly towards our dear Iheaven. ly Father. How pleasant it is, when wearied with the cares and exertions of the day,. to sit at its close and feel that each hour and day, as it passes, brings us nearer death, the happy release fronm all earthly trials. Howv sweet to feel, that soon we shall have done with earth and its temptations, and have entered into the paradise of God. There we shamll spend a blessed and endless eternity with~ our dear Redeemer and all the sainits and holy ones in heaven, where, freed from weakness of the body, we ~shall ever be singing praise to our God. Oh! joyful thought, happy reality. Who would barter such a hope as this for all that earth aflords 1 Sinner, be converted. Seek an interest in Christ: give Him your heart, and all the joys of heaven shall b.e thine. All things earthly are at best but fleeting shadows. There is nothing lastin g here; and how miseralIe will be your fate, if you die while out of Christ. Then be wise. Make the Christian's hope your own, and shouts' of joy shall re bound through the high arches of the court above, over your repentance.-Jewett. NONE STANID ALONE. It is in the pirovidencee of God that none stand alone; we touch each other; man acts on man, heart on heart ; we are bound up with each'other ; hand] is joinled in hand; wheel sets wvheel in umotion ; we are spirit, ally linked together-, arm in arma; we enni not live alone, nor die alone ; we eaumnot say I will run risks w ith my own souml, I am prepared to disobey the Lord for such pleas. ure or such gain, but I do not want to im plicate others ; I only want to be answer ble for myself. This cannot he. Each liv ing soul has its influence upon01 others, in smle way and to some extent, consciously; each has some p~owe~r. mocre or less, direct or indirect ; one mind colors another; a child acts upion children; servernts upon01 their fellow~ servants; masters on those they employ; parents on their children ; frienids on triends. Eveni when we do not dlesigni or expect to influence others, when we are not thiniking. in the least degree, of the ef feet of what we do, when wve are unceon sious that we may have any influence at all, when we do not wish our conduct or way of life to al'eet any but ourselves, our maner of life, our conversation, our deeds, are all the while .hav-ing wveight somewhere or somehow; our feet leave their impres sion, though we mmay not look behind us toJ see the mark. BIBL.E BoNs-An old man once said : "For a long perod I puzzled myself about the difficulties of the Scripture, till at last I amne to the resolution that re ading the Bi ble was like eating fish. When I find a :ificulty, I lay it aside and call it a bone. Why should I choke ou the bone, when there is so much nutritious meat for menc Some day, perhaps, I may find that ev-en he bone may afford mec nourishment." Would that there were less of picking of oes, and imore of feasting on the substan tial food with which infinite love has spread he spiritual hboard! TaL'E IIAPPNss.--lIe who Confinles his esires to his real wants, is more wise, more ih and contented than any other mortal xisting. T1he system upon01 which he acts, is, like his soul, replete with simplicity and true greatness; and seek ing his felicity ini nnocent obscurity and peaceful retirement, he devotes his mind to the love of truth, and finds his highest happiness in a content GIVE.YoUR MINISTER A COMPETENCE.- I Ministers do not preach for money, but this is no reason why they should receivopone, or, at most, barely enough to keep them in a condition for labor. When the churches act in this matter, and afford to their minis ters a competent support, the cry for men the destitution of the ministry-will cease to be heard, and when mjinisters are ena bled to lay by a little something for the dark day, the " thorn" will be removed from the "pillow" of the dying pastor, and his heart saved from the "pang" of absolute poverty.

IlE design of the inventor was to get up a Press which would answer every requirement of the offer made by George Bruce, of New York, in 1851, viz: CHEAP, LIGHT, EASILY MAN AGED, and capable of throwing off at least 500 sheets per hour. This PRESS will throw off from 500 to 800 sheets per hour, doing the work equal to any Cylin der Press.
