Ureen Maunrca.
In mauy parts ot the country one
of the most serious questions is that
of manure. One may be so situated
as not to make it profitable or con
venient to keep much stock ; and
yet if manure has to be , purchased
it is seldom that it can be done so
as to leave much profit. Ou the
other hand, it is clearly a loss to
farm poor gronnd ; and thus be
tween these "upper and nether
millstones" one hardly knows what
to do.
In some places much use is made
of green manures That is, the
land is sown with some rapid-grow
ing crop, which, alter it has growu
considerably, is plowed down ; and
in this way the land is fertilized.
t'4over is often used for this pur
pose, and iu the South the cow-pea.
There is some considerable labor
involved in this style ol manuring ;
but this is not all in most cases. A
whole season is generally lost in
this way of fertilizing the ground.
Still iu many cases even this .has
been found to pay, instead of buying
either stable manure or commercial
fertilizers; and where laud is cheap,
and taxes low, it may perhaps be
the best thing that can be done.
It only some one could suggest
something which would grow so
fast that We could plow it down
and crop the same season, it would
be one ot the best possible discov
cries. .Something of this kind we
rind reported iu the January num
ber ot the Heport of the Depart
ment of Agriculture from an English
soorce. It appears that some one
had a piece of land so poor that
the wheat yielded was but pur
bushels per acre. Iu I860,' im
mediately after harvesting the
wheat, be Bowed cow.peas at the
rate of twofeusliels per acre. Early
in October he tarried the resulting
crop under with a deep furrow. A
tew weeks later he sowed oo this
pea-tod wheat, harrowing it iu
carelrtily. Bo harvested nine
whelBprcte. Herflpeated the
BftSW ,18t0, ffl, ' roaliwl
17 bwbefc prfci"ldNgW id
1871, followed by a tfield of 27
bushels per acre; and aain in
1872, with a promise at, tag time
ot reporting 40 Wlie.ls per acre.
Throughout the experiment, cover
ing five years, no fertilizer except
trie cow-pea 'was' applied.
This, if correctly reported, is a
tremendous result; pud, if true,
eclipses anything ever lienrd ot,
and is surely worthy f more
thought than is usually ! given to
newspaper paragraphs. ear after
year the graiu was xowu on the
same land, and with only about
two months' growth of pas, the
yield had in four years increased
from tour to forty bushels of wheat !
With such results as these it will
hardly pay, even u der the best
circumstances, to haul manure from
the stable-yard, for wheat. What
has been done in this way ought to
be done again, omewhow we can
hardly credit this stupendous result ;
yet we know that green manuring
is cxccl'ent generally, when wo
give it a year's growth of the
ground, and it may be. that some
thing like this can be done. We
hope what we have written may
have the ell'ect of stimulating trials
in this direction. Forney Prtxs.

A discovery of interest to wood
engravers is the fact that plates ot
polished slate may be usal as sub
stitutes for box-wood for engraving.
The plates will furnish over 100,000
impressions withou. loss of detail,
do not warp, and are not affected
by oil or water.
There is nothing so hopeful to a
man, and especially to a fanner, as
a thrifty housewife. His wife may
lie beautiful and loving and ac
complished, graceful, cheerful,
faithful, still he will find that there
are many flaws in the domestic
economy unless, with her own
qualifications, she combines the
happy faculty of imparting the
glow of youth to the aged fowl,
and of so proportioning a pound of
butter to a barrel of salt as will
enable her to realize for the salt in
the market twenty-five cents per
pound.

The humidity of the atmosphere
and the action of gas cause a bluish
white coating to collect on all
furnitiuo, aijd show conspicuously
on bright, polished surfaces, such as
mirrors, pianos, cabinetware and
polislcl metal. To remove it,
take a fofi epnge, wet with clear,
cod water, and wash over the
article. Uientakaa soft chamois
skin and wipe it clean. Dry the
skin as well as you can iy wringing
it iu the hands, and wipe the water
off the ttiriiittire, iieing carefuf to
wipe only one way. Sever use a
dry chamois ou varnish work. If
the varnish ii defiteed at d shows

turpentine in equal parts, shake
them well in a vial and apply -a-very
smnl. quantity on a soft rag
until the color is restojed ; then
with a clean, soft rag wipe the
furniture off. In deeply carved
work the dust cannot be removed
with a sponge. Pse a still-haired
paint brash instead of a sponge.
To varnish old furniture, it should
be rubbed with pulverized pumice j
stone and water to take off the old
surface, and then varnished with
varnish reduced, by adding turpen- j
tine, to the consistency of ceam. j

If it does not look well, repeat the !
rubbing with pumice stone, and j
when dry varnish it again.
Income of Sew Yorb Lawyers.
Among those who reap a hand
some harvest out of the recent panic I
the legal fraternity stands pre-eminent.
An immense increase of liti
gation has been its inevitable result, i
Every merchant, banker or broker ;
who is in trouble was obliged tore-1
tain a lawyer, aiai iu many instances
more than one. For instance, the !
Gridnell bankruptcy case, when it !
first appeared before Judge Match-
ford, brought six well-paid lawyers
into court. The fees required on
such an occasion would not be less
than S?10,000, ami the cost ot the
entire Griunell suit will probably
eqal five tunes that sum. 1 his may
seem like a large estimate, but is to ,
be remembered that the securities !
which this house held were $12,- j
000,000, and the amount at stake !
always has a bearing on ti e legal
charges. Our best lawyers value j
their time at from $40 to f 50 per '
hour, which is a reasonable charge, j
Uy a consultation with one ot these
men you can in an hour obtain an
opinion which is worth fifty iimes
the amount of the fee. 1 f, however,
the case l one where half a million
is at stake, then instead ol a mere
fifty you will lie expected to ad
vance a retaining feee of i&iOO or
perhaps 81,000. This prevents any
one from securing the services of the
lawyej thus retained. P a lawyer,
even after receiving- saoh a fee,
should win the case, he will expect
from 810,000 to $15 000 additioua .
Our great lawyers demand Day cum
niensurate1 witlj tlir refaitation,
and hence some of them can lioast a
practice worth 850)00 ir year.
O'Conor, previous to his retirement,
made annually, it is -said, nearly
tour times that sum. Indeed, he
was probably paid 8200,000 for his
services in the Jumel case, lie is
now worth more than a million, al!
of which he has made by his own
geuius,and industry. Xmv York
