Kit. Fahmmh: As you invito correspond.
enou In regtrd to tho beat mode of harvest,
lo grain, I will otter my ideas upon the
sutdect. I have been farmlrg In this Talley
lor ten jears, and havo had rxprrlencs with
tbe header, mpr, and Uarveoter, and I
prefer the Utter to any other mode that I
am acquainted with, although the header
ontatbe grain with leu expense, does It
quicker, and bavos a groat deal of hard
werk. But then ltlcavea all the wild oata
and othor fould matter on the ground to
toko the farmor'a wheat tho next season. In
reaping grain , thero la too muoh grain loft
on tho ground (thoblncors falling to pick It
all up.) With the harvester, tho farmer can
hlro only two hands and can cut his grain
and get it In tho shock without any wasto
(and boaldos ho itatbora noarly all tlio wild
oatt and other foul matter), long before It Is
ready to head. P. D. A,

Mr. Leonard Drake. In nn address
before tho Kentucky Wool Growers'
Association, on Woofs and their Classi
fication for Market, among- other things
pressed tho growing want of more do
mestic wool, Improved to suit tho man
ufacturer. Thero nre, said he, forty-six
mills In tho United States that uso for
eign wool entirely, and 707 that uso
both domestic and foreign wool, or 031
mills using 70 por cent, of domesti ,
nnd 00 per cent, of foreign wool. Ho
thought wo should grow tho best puro
Lincolnshire, Cotswold, Ilamboullio
Merinos, nnd Routlidowns, nnd cross
them on our native sheep, and on each
other, until wo establish now races.
Combing wool, Mr. Drnko defines as

straight nnd parallel then twisted Into
yarn catieu worsted, " tlto onus in spin

FARMER.
THE FOUNTAIN AND THE E1VEE.
BY INEZ CURL.
Far up tho side of n mountain there
wan a llttlo fountain which was shaded
and kept cool by tho trees that grow
around, nnd it had nothing to do but
laugh and piny with tho sunbeams nil
tho time, Tho llttlo birds sang to it,
nnd often came nnd bathed In it, nnd
tho weary pilgrim or traveler would
come nnd drink of Its nnro crystal wa
ters; hero also tho dusky warriors
would nlight from theirfoamlng steeds
nnd sit upon its pleasant hank while
they talked of tho "Great Father of
Waters," whoso volco they had hoard
from afar, nnd whom they had learned
to worship. Then tho llttlo fountain
pondered over tho words It had heard
nnd its heart swelled within it ns it
thought of the great things that wero
going on in tho world from which it
felt itself shut out. It now hem mo
dissatisfied with tho unvnrvinc life it
led, nnd it firmly resolved to break
looso its bounds nnd flow away to seek
tho acquaintanco of othor nnd greater
waters than itself, and an intense do
slro sprung up In Its henrt, to perform
somo deed which might render Its
name immortnl. While It thus mused,
tho thoucrht occurred to it, that thought
nlono did not accomplish great alms
but that obstacles, howover great.must
ylold to pcrwvorlng effort, Taking
this view of tho subject, it tried to ov-cr-lonp
tho bounds which held it. Af
ter several unsuccessful efforts, It final
ly surmounted tho first barrier. Thon
it began a rapid descent down tho
mountain, clapping its hands for Joy in
its new-found freedom. It leaped nnd
turned summor-snults, shouting nlnud
with maniacal laughter; with fright
tho birds flow away and hid them
selves in tho topmost branches of tho
trees, which whispered together in nn
ominous manner concerning the fate of
tholr nitiuli-bolovod fountain. In the
meantime, tlio rill, for such wo must
now call It, in its rapid descent soon
reached the font of the mountain whero
it was iolned hynnothor rill, and they
agreed to travel together. Tho rill
spoke to its now-found companion of
tin "Great Father of Waters," and its
intention to travel until it round mm.
Its companion was very much delight
ed with tho thought; and It also spoke
oftho wearlnesss It had felt In tlio idle,
aimless life it hadlednn tho mountain,
and its determination lo accomnlish
something in the world; then it started
in ti southeasterly course, for In this
direction, the rill had hoard tho warri
ors s.iy, was tho home of tho "Great
l-'athor." It foil very happy a It flow
ed through fertile meadows and siw
tlio lilies leaning over tho banks to
catch u gllmsp of their own lovelinoss
which was mirrored luck from tho crys
tal brook. Although these things wero
pleasant, and they enjoyed them ex
ceedingly, still it tarried not, but ovor
kept tho object of Its search In view. It
was joined by numerous othor brooks,
as It went on farther until It was a riv
er. It swept along, with such forco
that It carried particles of earth nnd
nobbles along with It so that It became
dusky lu color, liko tlio forest children
who played upon Its banks. It had
not travelled far until it met another
slream of ii beautiful milky complox
Ion, wlio asked to accompany It on Its
tourney; its socioty nntl aid wero glad
ly accepted, and tho Journoy wa con
tinued u fow mllos farther whon tho ac
tuaInt:inceof another river was form
ed, of it beautiful golden tinge, whose
margin was covered with stones nnd
pebbles tif the Nimo rich hue. It now
went on rejoicing In Its stroiigth, filled
with hopes of luturo success, ami it In
creased in size as ono by ono othor riv
ers ca i no nntl Joined It. It was now
very many miles nwny from tho home
of Its birth; ami it had begun to real
ize Mime of tho fond dreams of Its
childhood. It had now reached tho land
of clvlllzatton nnd commerce; oh! how
nroud did It feel when It horo upon its
hroad bosom for tho first tlmo a steam
boat with its valuable freight and ad
miring p.isengers. Although it expe
rienced much ploiMiro as it swept by
the beautiful cities with their gay
throngs of plcasure-.eokor.s who stroll"
ed ulong its banks; yot its liosom heav
ed with uncontrollable emotion when
it thought of tho rapture which it felt
surely awaited it; for it now began to
hear lu tho far offdlstnnce tho voice of
Its father calliug It thither. Swiftly ns
though borno upon tho wing of tho
wintl, did It hasten torocoivoa father's
blessing. I will leave you to imiigino
tho Joy or tho "Grout Father of Wa

of his henrt, nnd praised him for his
porsoverlng effort and success.

which loft my limbs parallzed and useless,
so I was nnaoio to wane or ovnn sit up.
Noticing the advertisement of Pkruvian

my groat Joy soon found ray health Improv

thrco bottles had boon used, ana was restor

so to this day. I attrlbuto mv present
health ontlroly to tho uso of Peruvian
Sykup, and hold It In high estimation. I
