Substantial chimneys to two story houses will require each about five tbousand bricks, and cost, when pompleted, sixty dollars each; whether inside or outside, it is a mere accident if they answer the purpose for which they are built, for who is there that has not scorch ed his shin in front of a roasting fire, while his back was freezing, in very cold weather? Ordinary plantation fire places will consume weekly a cord of wood, and withal leave the room as cold as if there had been no fire kindled. Hourly, during cold days, the fire has to be replenished, and the hottest part of the chimney is its top, for nine tenths of the heat escapes up the flue. The chunks may be drawn together, and fresh wood thrown on, but all to little purpose half the time, for we Southerners are proverbially expert in leaving doors open behind us in cold weather. Possibly, cheerful fires may have partially heated the sitting room, for instance; a member of the fam ily wishes to retire, "only for a minute;" the minute is prolonged to an hour ; the door stands ajar all the while, until the draft of fresh air chills the room and inmates, when on must go a few more logs to re-supply the lost heat. This policy,so universally practised at the South, costs money. I care not if the wood is burned to get rid of it. The tree must be felled, the branch es lopped off, the wood hauled, then cut again to suit the fire place, and the fire built; every one of which acts has to be done by hired help. True, the farmers say, the land had to be cleared, and the farm hands cut andi hauled the wood, and others build the fires when they having nothing else to do, &c., &c. Against just such fallacious ideas I am contending. Clearing land may at a future time be opposed as questionable economy, and sure ly "hands" that are hired by the year should never be so idle as to have time to do work that costs no thing. But I am asked, what substitute have you for the chimney ? I an swer, unhesitatingly, the stove. As the cooking stove has supplanted the Dutch oven, so should the heat ing stove supersede the fireplace in most of our rooms. To-day is cold and icy, the wind blows briskly from the northeast. Three hours ago I entered the room in which I am writing, and for the first time this Fall, kindled a fire in a stove that an able-bodied man might carry under his arm, using three small sticks of oak wood' twelve inches long, and two small er pieces of dry pine. In fifteen minutes I had to move off from the stove, and to this time the remotest corner of the room is perfectly corn fortable. Yesterday morning at daylight, (2nd November, white frost) with a few splinters and a gnarled stick of pine, probably twenty inches long, and 3ix inches square, I kindled a fire in a stove; at 9 A. M., three or four small oak sticks were added; at 12 M., as many more, and again at 4 P. M.; at 9 P. M. this room, sixteen by twen ty feet with a ceiling twelve feet high, was warm and comfortable, and had been so throughout the day. Had either of these experiments been tried in a room with a fire place, I would have written with cold fingers, and eaten my meals with discomfort. The objection to a stove is trite, that it dries as well as heats the air of a room, and produces headache. There is science in using a stove as there is in the use of all imple ments, and it may be made to re supply the very moisture it de stroys. A tea kettle, sauce pan, boiler or any open vessel filled ROTATION.-A judicious a n d careful rotation of crops is absolute ly necessary in maintaining the fer tility of the soil. This needs no demonstration, for it is universally admitted. But how to rotate to secure the greatest advantages, is the main question. No specific can be given to suit every case, b e c a u s e "circumstances alter cases" very much in regard to this point. The system that would suc ceed on one farm would utterly fail on another, and vice versa. Gov erned by general principles, the r farmer must decide the matter for himself. Each crop extracts from i the soil the elements essential to its growth and maturity, and by con tinuous cropping, however judicious the rotation may be, the soil will eventually be exhausted. Hence - the elements abstracted must be re turned to the soil in the shape of fertilizers. This settles one point -that farmers must keep st,ck, and the nearer they come to keep ing stock enough to consume what their farms produce, the nearer they come to the most improved culture. The usual rotation is from the sod-corn, oats or barley, wheat, and then grass. In good soil two crops of wheat can be grown, clo ver being sown on the first, in the spring, which will furnish one crop, and one to plough under for second crop of wheat on which grass is sown for future meadow or pasture lands. A prominent agriculturalist recommends the following six years' rotation: First year, corn, pota- k toes, and roots, with ground heavi ly manured; second, oats; third, clover ploughed in and sowed with 4 wheat in the fall; then timothy and clover sowed on the wheat in the spring of the year; then let it lie in grass two years. Other systems of rotation have their advantages suited to the sur rounding circumstances of soil, cli mate, etc. In wheat districts, where the soil rests on limestone or plaster, a simple rotation of clover two years and wheat one is found to be good, always premising that plen ty of manure is returned to the soil. [Ohio Farmer How TO ESTIMATE THE PROFITS OF A Fini.-The farmer lives in his own house. The use of the house, which he does not pay for, is as much a part of his income as the money which a salaried man pays for rent, is. of his, and should be counted as such in an estimate of the profits of the farm. All things produced on the farm and consumed on the farmer's table includ ing the vagetables from the garden, the eggs and milk used in cooking, are as much a part of his income as the money paid for such things out of his salary is of the salaried man. If a farmer gives his wife and children a pleasant ride to town, using his own horses and wagon the value of their use is part of his income from his farm, as truly as the tnoney the man pays out of his salary for carriage hire is of his. The correct rule for estimating the in come from a farm is substantially this: Give credit for evey article produced, used, or expende.d in any way whatever .no matter how small in value, as well as for cash received for products sold, and I for increased value of farm property,and charge against the farm for interest on capital invested, and for all expendi tures. The farmer that will do this from year to year. will not so much feel lik.e complaining of the unprofitableness of farming as compared with other pur suits. The fact is, not one in a haudred farmers take into considera tion the luxury and comforts of fresh eggs, butter, milk, fruits, etc.,that they would have to pay high prices for if they lived in towns, or do without them. FAITH As A REMEDIAL AGENT. The history of medicine is filled with. accounts of instances of the snpposed discovery of specifics for the cure of ~ intractable diseases. Many are the specifics which at one time and another have been extolled as sure cures of consumption, and their use in I the hands of their discoverers has been attended by cases of remarkable cures. The discoverer of the supposed spe cific possessed all confidence in its heal. ing powers and prescribed it for others, earnestly assuring them that he, at last, had discovered the great remedy against this terrible disease, and thatr he could surely cure them. Often .r has it happened that thus a few cases a of actual consumption in its first stages have been inspired with the de gree of faith sufficient to cure them. Then the fame of the medicine spreads; and other physicians, having less eon- e fidence in it, and who, as a matter of p course, could inspire less faith in S their patients, have prescribed the ~ remedy. The result has almost in- i variably been that the remedy failed a to effect such cures as it had been re- il puted to have produced, and it speed ily fell into disuse.
