FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. Illnta About Work. The cold, backward spring has helped the weeds more than the corn, and a good crop can only bo expected through thorough cultivation. To choose the proper imploment is very important; a plow goes too deep, aud injures the roots; while a cultivator that slips over the hard spots, only half does the work. The surface must be well worked aud kept loose and mellow. As soon as the rows can be seen, cultivation should begin, and then the advantage of having the rows perfectly straight will be manifest, for in straight rows the cultivator can be spread so as to cut close to the Slants by going once only in a row. 'borough and frequent use of the cultivator will save hand labor; no farmer can afford to hand hoe his corn crop nowadays. Early planting almost assures a safo crop of potatoes. By planting early the crop will be out of the way of the second brood of tlie Colorado beetles. A 1 farmer should always be independent of 8 markets, and he may bo so, to a great e extent, by feeding what he cannot sell. 1 Potatoes fed to pigs the past season t have been worth fifty cents per bushel, t and although this is exceptional, on ac- J count of the high price of pork, it is i rarely the case that twenty-five cents a ] bushel cannot be made out of potatoes j by feeding them. I The Colorado beetle is most to be <3 dreaded when in the larva state. It I then eats voraciously, and is very uumer- t ous ; the perfect insect eats also, but v there are not so many of them. The .? whole secret of safety is in being pro- 0 pared for them, and not only brush 8 them off the vines into a pan, but have F Paris green in readiuess for the larvao. ^ Small quantities should be hand picked. It should be borne in mind that the * larvae of the lady bngs are useful, and not to be destroyed; they are long and ' narrow, very active, lead colored, with H bright spots, and quite unlike the larvae 1 of the Colorado beetle. The pupae of k the lady bug, attached to the vines, * should also be spared; they have been mistaken for the larvae of the Colorado d inseot, and many have picke^ them off ; t they are perfectly dormant. t( Beans are a cron that irivno cr/vrv.i nmflt s r O e>~~" r"""? when well maanged. It is a poor plan to & plant it upon ground that will grow p nothing else. On good, clean land, a t corn stubble, or a newly plowed clover a sod, beans should yield twenty-five to tl thirty bushels per acre. They yield ? best when drilled in rows thirty inches v apart, and two to throe inches apart in n the rows, but we find this gives most t] work in pulling them. A planter will drop and oover six acres a day with M single beans, three inches apart, or four 1 beans eveiy ten inches.?Agriculturist. 1 ft Spades and Forks. B Farmers do most of their Boil lifting li with the plow; but those who gardeu a have to use the spade considerably; but a the knowledge that the spade has been ,, in a great measure superceded by the fork has not traveled near as much as it ought to have done. We see many a one "digging garden," and preparing ' for spring, spade in hand, utterly unconscious that with a modern digging v fork he can do as mnch in a day, and 6 with far less fatigue, what with an old ? fashioned spade it would take him two 0 days to do. In the use of a fork there d is no digging to do. The tines ran into 8 the earth by the downward descent of a the fork in the operator's hands alone; o and in throwing over and leveling, a p single blow of the tines is enough to pulverize and make a level surface. a Some say their land is too light; that j the earth passes through, and they can- t not take up a forkful; but in this case work it when it is a little wet. Even sandy ground can be dug with a fork, if d the proper time is chosen for it. Of B course, the spade can never be abandon- c ed. There will always be some gronnd < that is very weedy or full of roots, which t a sharp edge like that of a spade will be c necessary to sever, aud in digging up c trees and garden vegetables nothing can , replace the spade in handiness; but there ^ are a number of instances in garden work where a digging fork can oome j into very great labor saving. Changing Crop*. -t W. H. White, in an article contributed to the Country Oentleman, says of the practice of changing crops: "Experience in the production of an article gives one the advantage of qnite a percentage in profit over the inexperienced, with the same article, and this should be borne in mind when the Question of substituting any other article of culture comes up. And again: 'My own experience and observation teach that the farmer who, if he makes a change in the * leading crop produced, makes that ohange gradual, meets with better success than he who invests his whole energies and resources at once. By that course he gains experience at only small oost, even when he does not succeed." Fully Satisfied. A pleasant little anecdote is told of a six-year-old son of one of the most successful concert managers of New York. HA hftil ViAAn intrifxul ^ 1 mv.ww W/ OuTOiM UUllUICIi H parties, and thought he mast give a par- 1 ty also. So he asked a friend of the * family if he ooald have the seats taken 1 ont of the music hall and have the < party there. The gentleman hnmoronsly ] sent word to him that he would " take l the matter into ernsideration " and let j him know. This reply the boy oon- ] sidei ed very favorable, and so thonght it , time to make other arrangements. He < soon buttonholed his father and said: , "I feel sure of the hall, and now want Yon Bulow to play the piano." "But/' said the astonished parent, < "Yon Bulow's do#est price is seven 1 hundred dollars." ' t " Well," replied the boy, very earnestly, " I think I should be willing to j pay that." Why It Is.?The editor of the Pali Mail Budget says one of the chief rea- , sons why dueling has become less fashionable is because so little satisfao tlon is obtained from it. A man feels I aggrieved at some slight to his honor, ' and demands satisfaction, but he cannot it. He dare not kill his adversary I ' and his adversary dare not hill him, for fear of the gallows. < SUMMARY OF /NEWS. Interesting Items from Home find Abroad. Samuel J.

Having m their arrival in New York left in the sustom house there a box containing a lumber of articles, they concluded to Iraw up an affidavit to meet the requirements of the law in withdrawing the box.

He was going from bad to worse when he so suddenly and tragically ended his existence. Absentmlnded. Mr. Sherwood Bonner, in a letter from Borne to the Boston Time*, relates the following aneodote of Miss Maria Sedgwiok, who for mauy years passed her winters in that city : "She had all the absentmindedness of g< uuis, and generally walked with her head in the clouds. One day she was seen hurrying madly after the Black Maria, waving her umbrella and ranking inoperative gestures. 'When asked what suo meant, ' Oh,' said she, I'm trying to catch that omnibus 1*" Chamois limiting. It in not bo very long sinoe we had the pleasure of conversing with /me of the best Scotch doer stalleers and most successful of chamois hunters, eays a traveler. According to this gentleman's experience, getting a shot at a red d- er is mere child's play compared to getting witBin range of the lynx eyed aud keen scented chamois. No ono need to sleep out all night upon an icy mountain ledge to kill a red deer; but in order to circumvent a chamois the sportsman is compelled to adopt this course for many nights at a tinjo beforo he even sees his qnarry. Then, again, deer stalkers draw up the mountain as a rule, while the chamois hunter's object is to attain a high altitude first aud creep down toward the object ho wishes to "draw a bead " upon. At gray dawn the chamois hunter is on the alert, and l>v the aid of his clear eyed Swiss guide and one of the best deer stalker's glasses he sweeps the rocky peak and ledgo within his ken. If he is lucky enough to spot the sentinel chamois perched on some pinnacle of rugged granite, they partly separate in order to circumvent the flock, a proceeding which in nine cases out of ton end,in miserable discomfiture. Sometimes, however, the party above the chamois get a crack, at others those bolow. Even should tho bullet take effect, not a bono of the quarry may be even picked at the camp fire. Sometimes the death-struck chamois topples ofl' the giddy lodge, and bounding from projecting crag to crag as ho falls downward, eventually lodges in some inaccessible crevice, a mere pommeled mass of shapoless skin and bone. At other times the hunters find it impossible to get at the ridge upon which the chamois has fallen. Should the party, however, succeed in catehiug tho old goat great rejoicing and horn blowing is indulged in. The flesh of tho chamois eats more like goat's than deer meat, and from the gourmand's point of view is a dead failure. Tho wild, sterile and romantic scenery, the dead silence of the Alpine heights where the dangerous sport is pursued and the extreme arduousness of tho pursuit?all have charms for the true sportsman and lover of nature. Sportsmen love sport for sport's sake, aud it is not tlje prize they valuo so much as the winning of it. Tho Swiss mountaineers are ardent chamois hunters, and many of the goiter affected inhabitants lose their lives yearly in hunting tho wild goat.
