The old WYoiman Physician is such an at tentive, good natured creature, and so kind in his manners, that his lninie is handed from nurse to nurse, so that he soon acquires a s rt of 'panada' ic putation, from whiheli he mziainiag'es to eke out, a very cointirtable exi.t(n(.'t le is in 1'ull possession of all tihe small dodges which sinaller doctors use to Obtaini notoriety. lie causes hiiin self frequently to be callod out, of* church by a well-trained, breathle-ss inessenger.

In. going >ver the piece with him and remai'k. ng the remarkable growth, we asked din how many times he usually hoed iis corn. 'Why,' said he, I do as I was brought up by my father to do o never had any particular number )f thnes, but loeid it all h di could.

Crops are like animals -they need petting and care. A f'riend was remarking to ts, one even ing, the diflerence in growth of melon vines in a neighbor's garden and in his own side by side on the same kind of soil and both rich, with thie same kind of' prepairatilon tl r the seed, and the seed sowi at the same time. The neighbor's mions were in blossom, while his own, he said, were but three or four inches inl height. This dill'er ence had been produced by tihe con stamit labor and care of' the gardener in stiring tihe ground aid regulating the amxiont of'sun and shado, air and moisture, they received. (Granite Farmer. IM'ORrTAT acTiL.-NtO farmer can realizu the lill benefits of his prolles sion without. adopting a thorough sys tern of' culture. Ilis success, coin liensurate to his wishes, always de pend4s upon the wanner in whieh he prelipaes his grounds, plants his seed, and rears his stock. Neither of these depalrtnents, which may be consider. ed the cardinal ones of his profession, will take ere of' themselves. The soil mnay be rich, but it needs culture. IIis seed inay be sown. but it should be inl due time and al ways on soil well prepared, and of a suitable quality for the produetioni of' the crop desired. I lis stock niust be constantly cared for -it derives its thrift from the soil and sends back again to that soil the suisteikace it requires; but this is not done inl a looso or hap-hazard way. The fariner's care is required, and all his better i juidginentt n1.u3st be constant ly exeriseI in keeping up this sys. tel) of reciprocal benefits that a.N be realized by every intelligent and in tiust ious fatrmacer.
