"Whit did sbo sy to that?" "Ob, ""lie only laughod, and said bho hadn't time fur it time, indeed' and M'lindy seemed glad to do it.

I'm really km to John Pringlc, you know second cousin to his fntheiN first wife so it's my place to speak to hor." "Of course, its join place." " And your duty." Mm John Pringlc had committed Kichoussins in theojesoftho fanning community in which she had appeared as a bride about threo yeais before. In the first place, hlio was, in a measure, held accountable for John l'nnglos sin in turning his bnck on the country las-es who waited on tho glance of his handsome eos, to bow bonne a mniden in who-e superior refinement he rejoiced with jinal and pioud appieciation she ueei for a moment considering that it placed her in any way aboe bis steihng dualities oi mind and Jic.nt. Nie had biougbt her own wajs with her to the faim, and her ways weio so diffeient from tho .is which had been handed down from gdieiation to gcneiation of faimei's wi(is, as to In en una constant small agitation among thpin, of winch she, Ixing absoibed in hei own puisiiits was piovoMugly uuawaie.

The di-tuibaueo which had been cnused by unneces-uij lepairs and adornments of tlje old house because what was good enough for John's mother ought to bo good enough foi John's wife1- increased, as tho sewing was turned on to hired hands, and arose to positio excitement when a httlo gul was taken into the family to asit in tho eaie of the baby 'Thoivh I'm freoto confer, as 1 don't want to do an injustice to a livin' soul," said Miss Matin Jane, that she hardly ever lets that baby out of her sight But, I take it a woman as. has to bo oor lastiu'ly foolin' oor bits of paper and dauby paints, ain't no call to bo a wife and mothei " 'Iconic- to biing this to cm, MV Pungle, 'spoin it to be j mini, said the w oi thy spinster a ho was' slionn into the room of the Kiy-lml cujiet, when she found itt mistress, coated at a desk, appucntly nb-orWd in a few tlowus winch stood hi a glusof water.

Mrs. Pringlc might b.w noticed tho eoinpre honsixo ghuee with which Miss Brew stei tiHtk in thi fact, foi she s.id, with a unite : "You've eiuij-ht mo a little tevi soon, Miss Drowsier. John brought me thosi lovely little' 'epring beautieh' just after Invakfdat, and they fade so soon that 1 let thing get while I sketched them.'1 In Mivi Urewoter's opinion this was treating the Mcred obligations of tlniftv housewifery entiredvtco lightlv. "Mevt of folks I know, .Mis'"Prinsle," she said htillly, thinks duty ought io bo attendtxl to afore frivolities. Now, John I'ringhi'k mother " "Yes, 1 know," said John PringloV molbei's dughteindaw, quite una bashtHl, "only you rec a nnmi can le( swept one timo just as well as another, but these flowers would not wait." Miss Brewster was indignantly cast ing about for some expression which c mid delicately convey her idea of the shiftlcssness of such a principle, when an interruption occurred in tho person of John Pringlc coming up tho walk outside. "Ha 1 ha I ha ! my lady," said the visitor to herself. "I wonder what he'll think of such eloin's at this timo o'day, when his mother'd a' had her wash otit and a' " she rejoiced in seeing that Mrs. Pringle did have the grace to look a lit tlo confused. "Oh' John, dear," she said, "I wouldn't havo left my room untidy, if I had known you were coming, but it has taken inc ever sinco to draw thcc." "Good morning, Miss Brewster," said John. "Xever mind the room, Janot business before pleasure, you know 1 eh, Miss Brewster? Look here, Janet, I came all tho way back home to bring jou these." Business before pleasure, indeed I Miss Brewster was speechless as the two bent over a few anemones he held in his big hand. She had no intention of includ ing John in the setting clown she had come to give his wife, but she now folt nerved by the sight of such "fool non senso" to say her say to both. "They're as natural as life, ain't they Miss Brewster?" ho said, showing her the tiny drawing with great pride. "I suppose so," said the lady, stiffly, "but it seems to me, John Pringle not to say it's any concern of mine, I know, but most of us neighbors has our opin ion. I'm only meanin' it in all kindness, you know tint it well," Miss Maria Jane found her own and her neighbor's opinions moro diflicult of expression than she had anticipated, "that it ain't a goin' to pay in the long run to have evQrvthing goin' to sixes and sevens; I mean that a farmer's wife can't affofd to spend all her time over such light doin's. Now, your mothpr, John I hope you know I only mean to suggest to Mis' Pringle here, that your mother was the greatest hand in the country for bucklin' (town to real solid work no fine arts about her. I don't mean no interference, you know." Sho hesitated, seeing a look in the faces of both her listeners which led hor to imagine her suggestions might possibly bo looked upon as an interfe ronce. "I only mean that most of folks think your father wouldn't a' been as forehanded a man as ho was if it hadn't a' been for his wife's helpm' hand." "Miss Brewster," said John, gravely, "to my eyes thcro never was such a wo man as my mother, and likewise there novor was such a woman as my wife. If I had known tho neighbors were so con cerned over tho rather unusual way in which her helping hand is as strong for mo as my mothers was for my lather hero he kissed the small white hand w hich had so exciteel Miss Maria Jano's contempt as being unfit for any use, "I should havo asked her to be moio open about it, simply bocauso I don't want her misjudged among my old frionds. Now, Janet, will you please tell Miss ifiewster iiow much you win in a year by your draw nigs V "Oh, nonsenso, John. Oo and attend to jour steam-plow." "I don t want my wife to he a money makci, as sho knows and you know, but if she is happv- in turning her talent to account, ami olhei sai o happy in doing tho work sho would do if she didn t mate a thousand dollars a joir, moie or less, by hcrdiawing " "What " exclaimed Miss Brewster, in such astonishment that John hmghed- "Yes, ma'am, bho furnishos illustra tions for difieient publications, amide" signs for china and chintzes. Eveiy im provement on the plnco has lieen niado bj her; she earns, moio in a week than pajs her servant hire for a month, and is piling up a littlo account which will make that little fellow out theie "ho pointed to tho baby in the cairiage out side the window' "good for a better faim than his father's, long before ho needs it.' "All by them little scrawls!" John was watching his wife as sho laid among a few blades of gras one or two of the violet-tinted anemones which shed through the loom tho daintiest faintest odor of Spring. Miss Biowoter quietly took her leave with a .ory subdued feel ing that sho bad made a total failure in her effort at convincing these two that one of thorn was a "right-up-and down shiftless, no account sort of a woman." But. much comforted by the rellection that tho wondeiful thing she had learned would cieate a piofound sensation when fully leported by herat tho next meet ing of tho sowing-society, Deinoiest's, Monthly.

For a vouch or cold thic i no reme dy equal to AromonV Cough Syrup. lyortiotlinrftL Raising Vegetables for Canning. A isitor tells or what ho saw on one of the farms in Massachusetts where raising vegetables for the canning fac tories is tho leading industry: "The crops grown this j-eafare about two acres of potitoes ; one acre of field corn, which was as heavy as any we have ever seen; five acres in tomatoos, and thirteen in &w eet corn. There are also somo twelve acres of heavy grass and a large pasture for milch cows. Few men have learned to manure farm crops as heavily as we found them manured here. Tho tomatoes weie set 51 inches by CO inches apart, and so completelj' covered tho ground n3 to leave too little room for the pickers to walk among the vines. Mr. Eichardson will set them at least fivo feet each way in future, or five bj five anda-half feet, which he thinks will be better. He ploughed in a heavy coat of stablo manure, and then fertil ized liberally in the hill after setting the plants, and believes tho fertilizer has given him 200 bushels of fruit, picked before tho 15th of August, nnd sold for from $1 to $4 per bushel, averaging about !r2. His neighbors, w ho used less fertilizer, or none, had scarcely begun to pick at that date, and will have to put nearly their whole cron in at factory prices, which arc usually about forty cents per bushel. That Mr. iuchaiel&on has not sunk the farmer in the manu facturer, is shown by his farming opera tions outside the homo farm. Jie has this j'ear thirteen acres of sweet coin, grown on leased land, and manured w ith fertilizer and stablo manure, pmchased from and brought out on the cars ; and as an evidence that he makes his farm ing pay, ho cited a field of less than an ncie which produced .100 worth of mar row squashes last year, figuring at tho same price per ton that he paid others for then?. He also last year took in a partner in tho canning business, Mi. llopkins, who has about eleven acres in coin and squashes. There are about 00 acres of sweet corn now growing within a mile and a-half of tho factorv, planted expresslj' for this firm. Neailj' a third of it bj- tho two members of this firm. They had just finished canning 700 bush els of string beans, of tho favorite Golden Wax variety. Single Ere Culture of Potatoes A correspondent of the Cultivator and Country Gentleman, of Albinj-, N. Y., has this to say in legard to the singlc-ej-c culture of potatoes : "A potato has threo crops in itself, an earlj", a middle and a late one. The cluster of eyes at one end will ripen one to two weeks cailier than the central ej-es. The tw o or tlncc ov es immediately surrounding the root end should in all cases be discaided in growing foi home use or for market. They pioduee most ly small potatoes, and if laige thej-aio waterj' and soft. By cutting one or two weeks ahead of planting, and sprinkling with lime, plaster, or other material to chy the pieces, those that will not ger minate become as hnid as stones, and the person planting can easily detect such and throw them avvaj. By cutting as they are used jou will havo somo misses, or blanks. Cut to one eve, nnd do not be afraid in the least, Boar in mind that your ow n confidence in the whole matter will carrj"j-ou successfully through. The cutters and workeisof my whole crop are men of all nations, fiom Castle Garden, tho most intelligent one being picked out as a leader. I state this to show that it may bo seen there is noth ing particular or fine in the operation, from cutting to storing. My u-ual meth od is to set one man to cut oil the root end, and another to cut ofl" the eve-end. thus foimmg three heaps. The root end heap goes to the hogs. My great trouble is to get them cut cloe. All the waste ilesh goes into heaps for cattle or hoy feed. When mv notatoes have come tin somi of them will havotwo stalks. Thosehills having those two' stalks produce iniuh smaller potatoes, if a hne-jiavoicd pi tato is wanted, plow up sod in the fall and plant to potatoes, m tho sprnu; without any manure. The width a pint of hills must be judged by the giowth of the potato. If stems of a anctv grow Unity inches long, the drills must be of that width; if the vines grow live feet long, drills must be that width apart. You must dctei mine in tho fall where v-our potatoes are to be, and place at each end of the field heaps of ma nure, and if a large field, in tho centre also. For m irket, my experience is that a potato must bo large, 'quality Wing no consideration. If v-ounave a gexxl plowman, a marker is not necosearj', but straight lows are eb-ential, both foi workinc and looks. Take any plow that suit your land, and with two horses your "plowman (after giving him his width to rup and depth to go), will put a spie.uler between his horses to' open the team to tho desired with. If his plow does not go deep enouch, ho will fasten a board on his land side and mould-board, and even go twice in one funovv, o that when hi drills are fin ished, the ridge Wtwcen are pe-rfectlv-peaked on top, resembling a houM'-roof. HORTICULTURAL NOTES. "Tho nilo is, the people of New Kng land pi mt their gardens too early to ge t large crops- Plants that come up and grow rapidly will produce much more than those that, after Wing above ground n few days, stop groins and stand a long time without making any perceptible progress.- Every man who can ilo so should have two ganlens., one in which to grow a few early Tfjota- blcs. and the othertonlantfor tho main crop. Tho first should bo located in a warm dry place, tho last on moist, rich land. The early garden should bo plant ed as soon as possible after the frost is out, and the late garden not much bo fore tho 1st of June." "A Southern amateur go rdener secured slabs from the saw-mill nnd bored two- inch holes in them fifteen inches apart, and laid them round sitlo up on the edge of some beds, and set a strawberry plant in cacti hole, in August, &ucll a profusion of straw hemes as we htid from each of five experimental varieties, was a sight worth beholding. When other strawberries in the neighborhood were all dried up by the great drought of that season, ouis were in poifcction. A half pint or more were taken at a timo from each plant. It was but littlo trouble to keep the runners clown. But tho next season tho plants crowded in the hole so closely that tho crop was a failure. Ciotchcd or forked fruit troets of any kind can be kept from splitting down by twisting together one twig from each of the mam branches. These twigs, thus twisted together will, in fivo years, grow into a solid branch that cannot be broken. Twigs from the size of a leacl pencil to half-an-inch in diametci can be used for this purpose. "Arc cauliflowers profitable, and how are they grown ?" asks a correspondent. Give them plenty of water, fertilizing matcri d and cultivation, and there is no more profitable vegetable. To raise the plants sow the seed thinly and water three times a day until big enough to transplant. Cauliflower is most easily hurt by frost when it is half grown, so that lato set plants must be forced with plenty of water and superphosphate of limo or guano. When the heads make their appearance no more cultivation is needed, but the plants must be kept moist until ready for market, which will lie in about a month. "I selected five smooth potatoes of good size," says a New Hampshire cor respondent of the American Cultivator, "and cut them into three or four pieces. I then selected some about the size of a walnut. These were taken from mj pile of potatoes intended for the hogs. I planted one row with the cut potatoes and the next row with small whole ones, and so on, until I had planted ten rows, five of each. I treated them as nearly alike as I could, and felt sure that the cut potatoes would yield the best crop. But at digging time, to my surprise, I found nearly one-fifth more of marketa ble potatoes in the rows planted with the small whole potatoes than in those planted with the pieces of large pota tees. I have concluded that there is something more for me to learn about planting potatoes, and I intend next year to make a more complete test on a larger scale. Whoever, says the New York Sun, makes ,a bummer pilgrim ige westward from Albanj-, bj1 the Albanj and Sus quehanna laihoad, after the ihst thirty miles aie pissed, begins to see a strange and unaccustomed vegetation. Occa sionally a luxuriant growth of vines is met, which covers the earth entirely from the fervent mid-day sun, and rises from twelve to twenty fee in the air. He is in the outskirts of the hop district, ft is onlj after he has gained the summit, about fifty miles west of the capital city, and rolls swiftly down tho long slope of tho Susquehanna vallej', that he real izes that the heart of hop-growing Amer ica is reached. He is in Oswego a coun ty which excels all others in acreage and amount ami value of hops. BIT LBS. Portland Nursery & Seed Co THOMAS HOWELL. General Manager.
