SO"G OF THE
We are up and away, ere the sunrise hath
kist,
In the valley below us, that ocean of mist;
Ere the tops of the hills have grown bright
in its ray,
With our scythes on our shoulders, we're
up and away.
The freshness and beauty of morning are
ours,
The music of birds and the fragrance of
flowers ;
And our trail is the first that is seen in the
clew.
As our pathway, through orchards and
lanes we pursue.
O
The lielmeted clover, in serried array,
Like a host for the battle, awaits us to-day:
Likoa
host overthrown, rank by rank,
hhall it lie
Ere the heats of the noontide tire poured
from the gy.
Hurrah !-
-here we are ! now together, as
one,
Give ygur scythes to the swatd and, press
q steadily on ;
All together, as one, o'er the stubble we
pass,
With a, vina: and a ring of the steel through
the grass.
CT.cfore us the clover stands thickly and tall.
At i.iii' left it is piled in a verdurous wall.
And lie viQ breathed monarch more fra
grant perfumes
Than the s-unshine distills from its leaves
and its blooms.
Invisible censers around us are swung,
And anthems exultanf from tree-tops are
niing,
Atrd mid fragrance, and music, and beau-
ty, wc; share
The jubilant life of the Earth and the Air.
Let the priest and the lawyer grow pale in
the shade,
And the slender young clerk keep his skin
like a maid,
We care not, though dear mother Nature
may bronze
Our cheeks with the kiss which she gives
to her sons.
Then c!i eerily, boys, cheerily ! together as
one,
Give your scythes to the sward and press
steadily on ;
All together, as one, o'er the stubble we
pass,
Villi a swing and a ring of the steel through
ii
the grass.

reasonably expect, he would not be likely
to blunder much in its management. The
(g first thought might bo, do I want fruit, or
O Uo I want grass, grain, potatoes, etc., the
iuostP We suppose he wants fruit in his
q orchard; if so, he may reasonably ask if he
can afford to expend the amount of labor
necessary to maintain his fruit teees, and
nothing else upon the land, from the time
they are first set out. If one does this,
jilants trees only, and keeps the ground
G plowed and clean, for surely weeds are
worse than even a corn crop he will, if
the land is in proper condition, have good
trees, but at a heavy expense for several
years. He may rather revolve the ques
tion, what may I cultivate with least in-
q j'iry to the trees, and at most profit to my-
nelf, and thus make use of otherwise wast
ed energies of the soil, manure and sun
shine? This question cannot be answered
off-hand for there are many things to be
considered. When we manure the soil of
nn orchard, we must .apply more manure
than the trees need, because thev should
find it wherever their roots wander, and
these do not lill the whole soil. Trees
probably draw m st upon the fertility of
the soil i.t the period of their most rapid
growth. Hence, it we put a crop upon
the laud to use up the, excess of manure,
it is a poor plan to employ one. the roots

those of the fruit trees lor foud and moist-
: ure during this period. This will lead to
the inteid.ction of corn and all grains, and

Makin i Yeast. As much of the success
of bread-making depends upon the yeast
used, and as home-made yeast is usually
better than baker's, every house-keeper
should make her own yeast. For hop
yeast, take a handful of hops and put it in
three, quarts of water; boil it half an hour.
Then wet a pint of Hour with cold w ater,
rubbing all the lumps out; put it iu large
pan and strain the water in which the hops
were boiled upon it. When it is oulte
o
cool, put a cup of yeast in it; put it ia a
jug, and set it ia a warm place till it rises,
Then put it in a cool place. This will
keep a month. When it is nearly gone
make a new quantity, taking the remain-
lorrvihe old yeast to raise it with

Agriculturist says, The best thing I have
tried for sore shoulders in horses is crude
petrolinm. It' seems to have great healing
properties. I had been using it for paint,
merely rnbbing it on the waodwith a rag,
and was astonished how soon a sore, that
happened to be cn my hand, got well.
Since then I have used it for sores of all
kinds on animals, and am satisfied that it is
excellent. I rub it. not merely on the sore
itself, but for some distance around it It
has a slight exciting action on the skin for
a few minutes, and, when rubbed on the
parts near tin; sore, probably has a tenden
cy to scatter the inflammation. Petroleum,
just now, is one of my hobbies. Dr. Ed
gar took out a patent tor its use and gave
me a farm right." 11" he would be equal
ly generous with other farmers. I would
advise every one of them to buy a barrel
of petrolium at once, and use it freely.
That it will preserve the wood I have no
doubt, although, of course. 1 have not
iii?ed it long enough to ascertain the fact.
It is just the thing for painting wagons and
all kinds of farm implements and tools. On
mv farm it is narticulatlv needed, for I
find it next to impossible to get things put
under cover, and the exposure to rain and
wind, and sun, cracks the wood and opens
tin? pores. I'etrolium is better than or
dinary, paint, because it will penetrate
deeper into these pores, and it seems to
close them up, and makes the wood lock
firmer.

To Ei:EsjiE."R..xcTD EiTTiiK. A method
of freshening rancid butter is published in
many of the papers as follows: "To a pint
of water add thirty drops (about half a
teaspoonl'ii!) of liquor of chloride of lime.
Wash in this two and a half pounds of ran
cid butter. When every particle of the
butter has come in contact wiih the water,
let it stand an hour or two; then wash the
butter well in pure water. The butter is
then left without any odor, and has the
sweetness of fresh butter, 'these prepara
tions of lime have nothing injurious in
litem. 'r A wri'er who claims to have tried
this, says that the most rancid butter was
rendered so sweet by it that able judges
could not distinguish it from new butter
when placed alongside the latter on the
table.
