The time to plau for tbia is now wh its the corn crop is tfoin In, or tinder cultivation. It is a reasonable thing to say that a tenth may bo addid to the yield of corn on any farm by using seed that has been carefully raised for the purpose. Not much attention is paid to the selection of seed by t e average farmer. The man who reads and thinks about, the seed used for his crops, selects the best he can fil'd in his crib at planting lime, ard finds that this pays. It pays still better to select ears from the field the fall previous to planting, from stalks that bear two or irore' perfect ears. A better practice still is to plant the corn for seed in a s nail patch by itself, and guard it against all the accidents that must, alteml its growth and eultwaiion in the large field. The gronnd should be especially pre pared for this purpose, and made rich enough to's:pply all the wan's of the ptant. It should be thorough, ly cultivated every two or three weeks, until the grain is full in the ear. Like produces like, in 'corn as in cattle, aud the silk and the tassel are both factors in giving character to the ear, Though the male-anil female blossoms in the corn are upon the same plant, there is no security for self fertilization when any plant is grown in the open field. The polk. from a barren stalk may fall upon the ear grown from selected sctd, and this ear may be imperfect, or be a cob with little or no corn on it. 1 the ears si Itctcd for seed have been fertilized by a nubbin stalk, the nubbin imperfection goes down to posterity. In a small piece of corn planted remote from other corn we may guaid agdinst the ac cidents of promiscuous fertilization, and secure, as far as possible, corn with a good pedigree, ami perfect after its kind. AM barren stalks should be- cut out, and no more stalks be left in the hill than will give per fect ears. If I he owner will select from this patch the earliest and bevi formed ears, for his seed, and f.Uow up this practice for a li'r "years, lie will have anew variety and a large increase in his yieM' of corn. Me. . . . PROVIDE THE SWEET HERBS. Thero are many things that are not food in themselves that help give a pleasing variety to foods; these are classed under the general term of condiments. These may be mere flavorings, or may be added to help I he digestion. Thus the Mexican live largely upon Jr iff (ties (pronounced free-holee), the common beau of the country, which is present lit every meal of the richest, as well as form ing often the sole food of the poor est. These are made to form a great variety by the seasoning; they are dressed with green pepper or red, with cheese or with garlic, and in other wajs. With us the use of condiments is not a necessity; they are employed to give a pleasant flavor to articles of food. The plants called Sweet Herb, comprise Sage, Thyme, Summer Savory, and Sweet Marjorams sometimes Sweet Basil is added to the list, and Parsleyiwed mostly in the green state, may be classed here. A bed or corner of the garden may be used to raise the young plant!, which can be set out after early vegetables are of They are best treated as annuals, though Sage and Thyna will live longer than one year. They grow most luxuriantly in late summer. The plants should be cut when inbloo tied in small) benches, a to dry: th.ejv may b Ibid state, or when bed with the b powder, to be a eonvenjent 1SSECTS OS IARDEN VEGETABLES. ( lows ifr the gallery. If this opera- whisky-glass-fiask comes into gener- In some localities one or more of the Cabbage Worms iff still trouble some. The most common of these are the caterpillars of medium-sized butterflies, the wings of which are white, with at few black spots; there jre three distinct species, but all are similar in their habits. Wherevei these butterflies are seen flitting about over the cabbage and cauli flower plants, trouble from "worms'" may soon be expected. Safety con sists in attacking them early. Some worms eat into the forming head, and when they have thus hidden, noth ing can be done. In small gardens, hand-picking will answer, but where there are many cabbages, this is not practicable. The Persian Insect Powder, the Pyrcthntm, is the best, and a safe application. In former vol umes we have given the experience of those who have successfully used hot water, to reach the plant at the temperature of 160. Thero are in some localities cabbage worms which come from other butterflies, but they k' di'e to be treated in the same manner. The large green calerpillar, of the 5 spotted Sphinx, known as the "To mato Worm," is most destructive; it will soon leave nothing but bare stems upon a tomato plant, eating the green fruit as well as the leaves. When the. tomatoes are supported by some kind of a trellis, as they al ways snoiiui be n a garden, worms may be detected by the quantity ol large pellets of droppings found upon the ground. Where these are seen, the worm shoti'd fie sought for. Stems without leaves also indicate its presence. When not eating, it will be found close to the stems, on their underside, and as it isof nearly the same color, may escape notice. The "worms" are never very numerous, and hand-pieking is the best way to deal with them. In sp teoflhe horn :tt the tail-end, they can neither sting nor bile. Frequently one of these will be found with its body nearly coversd with small egg shaped white cocoons, often mistaken for eggs. Worms with these should not he destroyed, as they are loo weak to do much damage, and the parasitic insects should have time to leave these cocoons, as they are our friends, and shrxild be encouraged. The Tomato form may sometimes b- found on potatoes.

Quite a number of ladies have been noticed looking up into the galleries with opera-glasses, but we cannot think they have secured these new flasks. However, if they have not, they had better be- careful about looking up high for a time, for fear people will misconstrue their motives.

T1-" Utest thing on"-, and certainly an article that ivillrfill a want long Mt, is an f i.iera-glas that will hold half a pint of whisky. It is, in fact, a whisky flask, with lenses and things just like, an opera-glass, and a person can take q. drink without go ing out between the acts. It can be used as an opera-glass with or with out taking a drink. If you want to take a drink there is a little spring thut yon touch with the litt'e finger, when a silver tube dr.ips down into the mouth, and the whisky flows as easy as possible. It works best when you point the opera-glass up into the gallery, becaure that act fives it the natural incline.. Quite a number of these new opera-glasses are said to be in use, aud they gi ve excellent salisiaclioii.

There is a very strange story report ed from East Boston. On Friday, the 12th instant, there died at the residence of Amos R. Lovejoy, a young lady named Hattie G. Craig, laeking a few days only of being t A-enty four years of age. Her death was preceedgd by a sickness of near ly a year, a:id the disease of which she die.) was clearly of a consumptive nature. Many tf the circumstances following the death and preceeding the burial of the young lady are of a peculiarly interesting if not of a dis missing nature. On the morning of the 12th the long-suftering 'patient seemed to be rapidly Hearing the end and at 11 o'clock she appeared' to have breathed her last. The eyes of the young lady were tenderly closed by her sorrowing grandmother and the body was left alone with the weeping father. He remained for about half an hour in the chamber of death and then took his leave with reluctance. Just as- he had turned his back upon the beloved form he was startled by a movement of the body and an exclamation simultane ously of "Papa, papa, please don't leave me." When he turned around he saw with delight and astonish ment that his daughter was not a corpse, but an actual, living and con scious bein, endowed with a much intellect and strength as at any time during the last part of hsr ftickuess. Ol'course there was nowgreat joy aud consternation throughout the house hold. When she had become some what calm Miss Craig, with a smile and countenance angelic beyond de scription, said: "Oh, papa, dear, do you know where I have been?" 4 "No, Hattie; tell me where you have been; let me know nil about it,'' answered the overjoyed father. "Oh, paiia, I have seen heaven, and I am to have my health restored to me 011 certain conditions," she ans wered in great glee. "What are these conditions, and are 3-011 willing to submit to them?" asked the father. "Yes, papa; certainly I am." "Uut what are they, dear?" still queried the parent. "I cannot reveal them 10 you now, papa. But, oh, I saw such beautiful things in heaven." "Tell me, won't you, all about who and what you saw? Come now, that's a good girl." "Oh, I saw them all, I saw them all, papa, and I'm going to heaven again, ami w licit I go don't let them put me into tlta ground until you arc sure I am ieadi"" During the rest of the day, up to six o'clock in the evening, the poor girl was alternately in a conscious and swooning condition. At six o'clock she seemed to have died. There was no change in the body for three days and several physicians counseled that the body be kept from the tomb. On the fourth day, how ever, there A-ere unmistakable signs death and the interment took place. 'iston Herald.

WHAT A FIST OF HA.WRE DID. A Wisconsin farmer sends this ex perience to the American Agricul-' turist: "Last year, in hauling yard manure across a field afterwardV planted to corn, some of it scattered off in driblets, from a handful to a pint or so in a p'fitee. When planting' ' the corn, I found portions of thf-tle droppings, and where noticed, drew them into the hills, and with the hoe- mixed them a little with the' soil aa the seed was dropped. In three stances, where a largo handful ot about a pint of the manure was thua put in, a s'icfc was driven dotfu to' mark the hills. When hoeing, we' noticed that in these hills th' corn plants had started o more vigorous ly, were greener, aud at the thiruT hoeing they were 6 to 12 inches hig'a-' er than the other hills adjoining. -Our curiosity being awakened we" followed up the observations, nod' when gathering the crop, eaelrot'tbo three stalks in all the three hills, hody on it two large plujnp ears,- while' the siuAoihtdiug corn' did not aVer age orw good ear to the stalk."' ttt-E ATI Y(.
