POETRY.
S - THE
SQUEEZER.
A ynnkco of inventive mind,
Observing once that womankind
Wero blcst^vlth rather larger waists
Than scorned Conformed to ladies' tastes,
Planned out and made of polished steel,
..,With many a secret spring and wheel,
A queer machine, to work a sure
""tfnd altogether perfect euro,
On every waist that might not be
small enough periphery,
liis great machine at lust.complete,
3 He advertised in many a sheet,
_ Iu. this poetic style:
"Attention, ladies! call and see
JThe wonder.of the country !
rily-Patcnt Waist Dcgreaser,
j The ladies' loving squeezer !
1 rtftt itn aii/1 run ho fliKn-s Tl ill, "
lj?ii?U. ioated in his office at his esse,
Ft*? wafted calml/ for a waist to squeezo.
Vile had riot vory Jong to wait,
Forenoon a maiden dressed in state,
With rustling robes and smile serene,
L'atne iu to try tiiis great Jiiachiue,
And throwing off her furs and hat,
With stoic resignation sat
Straight down among the wheels and springs,
And screw*and other curious things.
Then said to Kile, "Sir, if you please,
rlMi|trgjust.tf Jtttle squeeze."
h [4cnsnfe; riufiim," said he and placed
The pliant springs about her waist. ^
Then turned the crank, tho springs grew
tight, C
Again she smiled with pure delight,
lie turncil again, she sighed, and then
-Tie turned the polished crank again,
-\flho>8ipUcd again, and whispered low,
. . -*My9MTfe&t Jabez turn it slow!
I'd linger long in joy like this!"
He turned again, she murmured ' bliss!"
-Again?sire siuilcd, she strovo to speuk,
t jBut w'im e?tatic joy grew weak,
*^t!ooTr/-t>rily faintly gasp, 'Dear Jnbcz, please.
Another, little, just a little squezee!"
The wbeela went round, she fell asunder?

Age at iviiieli the Chestnut Tree
Bears.
Under favorable circumstances,
the cbesnut tree "comes into bearing)
a?ja ,7?ry parly age. A nur^
sjjgyinan' in Ohio received letters
from various parties, attesting this
Jlhct; Lnfi"cl Irom them I make the
following extracts :
T have some trees, six years
old from the nut, that bore last
jrear?/" T T H. G. Stone.
^LeUlaire, Scott Co., Iowa.
'-'"t - \ o:r..i a.1 !fi._
"mere is a ueauuuu, i/unity
chestnut tree, here on the prarie,
twelve years old, that, is bearing'
nuts." Henry K. Smith,
Magnolia, Putnam Co., 111.
-I!lItfVcU?}s?uut trees, I received
oPy4>i lastUspring, gave entire
satisfaction, some of them growing
two feet. There are chestnuts in
this county in bearing six years."
Charles Waters.
Springfield, Vernon Co., Wis.
Many 'persons are deterred
from planting chestnuts by the
supposition that it will take them
jJitLy .ye^rf-to come into bearing.
^Tlliajpsja great mistake.- It is also
' a mistake to suppose that it will
only grow in light soils. I ha'/e a
vigorous young tree, some twenty
feet high, of which I planted the
nut, and it staiids in a stiff, clay
land. The editor of the Prairie
.^Farnjer, sa>'8 : "The American
chestnut does well on light praire
.soils. .It is cultivated by several
i iviyl'f 1 _ *A__ _ / a li
~ persons in tne vicinity 01 auou?
I tfr. 13. F. Long, having trees which
' produce burs holding from four
to seven nuts. Would it not be
bwieHd^obud or graft from such a
stock ? We have seen trees growp.fog
near Jacksonville, twelve years
' old, produce one bushel of nuts
to a tree." The editor of the Kansas
Farmer, (Leavenworth,) says:
'"The growing of chestnuts has
created some excitement here, nnd
one grove in- this county bore an
excellent crop nine years from the
seed."
Rousseau, the French philoso
plier, calculated, many years ago,
that a given area in chestnut trees,
would jjfoduce more food and better
fdod than "the same are'a'in
^ wheat* All farmers know the value
oTth6 chestnut for timber?no
rails being so durable as chestnut
rails. Its beauty as a park tree is
JMlsupassed ;?it you are condemn.
ed to the hard necessity of cultivating
and owning but one tree, let
that be a chrstuuttree. The nuts
should bo fresh and planted in the
Fall?they grow as easily and as
certainly as Indian, corn. Out of
a number that I planted, I do not
think one failed to grow.
" Southern Borne.
Deep and Shallow Plowing.
A prominent and successful
planter gives his views on the im*
portant subject, to Southern Agriculturistsin
the following language:
ryi/fe\p -paid a great deal of attention
to what. is termed deep
plowing, and T never yet have seen
any plowing can avera^o uvorsix
inches deep, and that looked so
dj;&f?t??riftrtxperienced person, it
could easily be plapted off as eight
or ten inches deep. " But after.trying
satisfaqtonly both deep and
shallow plowing, I have come to
.^conclusion that plowing should
be regulated to suit the land we
were pjowing.. ..If I went into a
with-" but*" four inches of
soil, I would"turrt over that land
but thrpe pr foi^r inches, and subsoil
in the furrow pf tjie turning
plow; -Uiafc <would be my system
. tor the first time I plowed such
*
lands. Aiid the next year if there
were stubble or weeds on the land,
I would turn under again, going
this time from four to six inches?
that is, would never plow land any
deeper than its soil?the first plowing
with a turning plow; but each
succeeding breaking up, I would
gradually go deeper, until I reaclw
ed the depth of seven or eight
inches, which is the maximum
depth I have yet seen done by the
very best plows, plowmen and team
of two and three horses; and if wo
have weeds, stubble, clover or peas
to turn under annually when breaking
up, soil can be made deeper
than when* wo first commenced.
My rule for plowing is, to be
governed entirely "by the quantity
of tho lands I am going to plow.
If shallow soil, I plow shallow, and
i - .1 1 -l 1
budsoii; ana pui on tne iana sucn
crops as will make the most rubbish
to turn under?and, in time,
a field of shallow soil can be deepened
by judicious plowing and rotation.
I would never turn up the clav
to the surface if it can be avoided:
and if a field had so little soil I
would break up such lands entirely
with subsoil plows?then sow them
down with small grain, cut stubbles
long, and then turn under as
above describedThere
is no implement we use of
30 much importance as the plow;
it is our first and greatest implement,
hence every farmer should
make the plow and plowing his
study; he ought so to understand
it as to be enabled to instruct or
aid the manufacturer in its con^
struction?telling him what he
wants and what is necessary to
make a plow perfect. But as it is,
there are so fewf farmers who undprsfand
t.hft nlniv and nlnwimr
w.._ r. _ I O'
we have been dependent entrely
upon the manufacturer to suit us
in accordance with* their own ideas
of what the plow should be, and,
right or wrong in construction, we
find few who know.it. The plow
may break and turn well, and the
draft may be too heavy, or the
draft may be light, and the work
of the plow imperfectly done; also,
the fault sometimes lies in the
gearing in of the beam. But be
the fault where it is, the farmer
should so understand the" plow and
gearing in of the same, as to detect
the error and point out the
remedy. If not, his plowings are
accidental, whether right or wrong.
Iu turning lands, it will be no*
ticed that some plows turn the
furrow slice flat over, or lap on the
principle of shingling. Where the
plow turns over the furrow flat, I
prefer such a plow for mauurial
purposes, that is to turn UDder
clover, weeds, or stubbles.
But in breaking the ground for
-li* i _ _ __J
cultivation, ana especially ior euru,
give me the plow that lodges its
furrow?as, when the furrows are
so lodged and the ground remains
longer loosened and broken?as it
is not so easily run together and
compressed by rains as when the
turning over is flat.
