How do the rivulets find their way ?
How do the flowers know the day,
And open their cups to catch the ray ?
I see the germ to the sunlight reach,
And the uestlings know the old bird’s speech;
I do not see who is there to tench-
I 'see the bare from the danger hide,
And the stars through the pathlcss spaces
ride; .
I do not see that they have a guide.
He is eyes for all who is eyes for his mole ;
All motion goes to the rightful goal ;
Oh, God! I can trust for the human soul.

Aunt Letty’s Story.
BY JENNIE K. LUDLUM.
Aunt Letty and I sat out in the porch of
her old weather-beaten house, where the grey
mosses and lichens clung to the eaves under
which the swallows had built their nests for
past two hundredy cars; and where the roses
and jessaminc that climbed up the sides, and
waved and swung in the scented summer
air, - were planted by Aunt Lefty's great-
great—grandfather Clayton "when that old
.house and new.” 5
The summer sun was setting, sending a
shower of golden, light over the daisied
meadows; one ray stole through the rose-
vines and fell aslant jAuutie's silvery hair
like a halo of glory and peace, and threw a
deeper shadow info the sweet, blue eyes that
were looking far away to the misty ,hills
across the river. The knitting needles had
fallen from the dear old hands that lay idly
in her lap, and my misChievous Kitty Clove
tumbled and rolled and tossed the ball of soft
gray yarn on the floor of the porch. '
Isat on the were old step, .my'white dress
falling over the gravel walk, my hands idly
pulling a great creamy-hearted rose to pieces
as my thoughts went back through the years
and I wondered who sat there first, and what
she (of course it was a girl), was doing and
thinking ? ‘
“Auntie,” I said, at,last.ithrowing the torn
rose away and snatching .the ball from the
kitten who seampered down the steps and
raced through the dewy grass on the lawn.
“Why, Jessie, child, how you startled
me!” she exclaimed, a half frightened look
in her eyes. “what is it ?”
“Aunt Letty, I was just wondering who
sat on this step first. Won't you tell me,
please ?” I picked up the shining needles
that had dropped, and leaned my head against
the pillar, the snOWy jessamine blossoms nod-
ding around rne, the scent of the cream roses,
strong and sweet, while
“The very silence was like it tune
Sung to the golden afternoon.”
'l‘hcn Auntie laid her trembling hand on
my hair, saying: , - .
“It is a very sad story, Jessie, but if you
wish to hear it, I will tell you; though first,
pick up that rose you threw down carelessly,
dear. All my life—even since I knew my
great-greatgrand mother's story—J have hated
to see even a flower hurt thoughtfully."
Then, when I had picked up the rose and
brushed away the ants and dirt that almost
covered it, Auntie commenced her story.
“It was over two hundred years ago, child,
when what I am about to tell you,happened.
“Jessie llIilburn was a very beautiful girl
of perhaps eighteen,-—-rich, thoughtless and
merry. Her home was one of those solemn,
oldstime houses where every.ray of sunshine
seemed shut out, and only gloom admitted.
The rooms were ghandsome enough, but the
closed windows and heavy hangings made
them very dreary-all hut J essie’s room where
every light, cheerful thing seemed to have
congregated.
“Her mother had :died when Jessie was
was only seven years old ; and her father, a.
stern, cold man, had no apparent wish but to
add more gold to his already enormous pile,
and took but little notice of the lonely young
girl. ._
' “One day a family moved into a little cot-
- tage next the grand house of Royal Milburn.
5 “Carrol Thorne was a handsome young fel-
low, proud as a prince and fairly worshiping _
his beautiful, haughty little mother, and, as
a lawyer, working hard to obtain luxuries
for her.
“J net after their advent, Jessie went down
to the cottage for a friendly call, taking some
of the sweet roses that made a. wilderness of
beauty of their garden, as a peace-offering.
Is it strange that she, shut out from young
acquaintances, should fall in love with young
Thornc P ‘
It was a true ease of love at first sight.
“After a time Carrol overcame his pride
enough to ask Mr. Milbnrn for his daugh-
ter's hand. But he had not expected to re-
reeeive the insults heaped on his devoted
head, when Mr. Milhurn orderedghim from
the house. He met Jessie in the garden and
told her what had passed. They were young
and agreed to wait. But her father, calling
her into his study, ordered her never to
speak to young Thorne again. She told him
gently but firmly, that she loved Carrol and
would never marry any one else.”
“Good for her!" I cried, impulsively and
with such energy that the kitten who had
curled up at my feet, jumped as though it
had been shot, and whirled around in aston-
ishment.
“011, J essic,” Auntie said with a smile, as,
I stopped laughing at Kilty,—“what a child
you are l"
“I beg you pardon, Auntie dear," I said,
ashamed of my ungovernahle risibilities,
“please go on l”
“Her father was very angry, “Auntie went
on, after we had settled down again, the
kitten in my lap, “and swore that no beggar
should have his daughter and his money.
So, one day, it gentleman returned from town
with him,—a tall, handsome man with sharp
blue eyes and stem lips. A good-hearted
man Cllougll‘bllt not at all qualified to win
sweet little Jessie ; therefore, when he sought
her hand and heart, be was met with a dc-
cided refusal, by the object of his admiration.
Mr. Milburn raved furiously when told of it,
and declared she must be mad to refuse such
a man whose coffers were piled high with
gold—gold, the idol of his whole life, for
which he would sacrifice his own child.
“This state of things went on for two
months in which time J essic had not been il-
lowed to leave the house, and had seen Carrol
Thorne but once, and that was when
he was riding by with several hunting
companions. Her father had toldhim that
Jessie was young and had not known her
mind ; that she was engaged to the elderly
friend of his, and he had better forget her.
It was hard for proud Carrol to believe ; but-
when he saw no‘ more of Jessie, he began to
think of her as false and fiickle like all girls.
“Then, one day, news reached her, as she
sat by the window overlooking the rose-gar-
den, one of her birds trilling a sweet melody
——that Carrol Thorne had been killed by a fall
from his horse. The next two months were
dull blanks to her; and at last, wearied by
her father's’ constant pleadings and even
threats, she consented to marry Gerald Clay-
ton.
“Over-joyed at his success, Mr. Milburn
hurried the wedding on. But it was not
long afterwards that Royal Milburn died
suddenly of heart disease ; then it was found
that his boasted wealth amounted to nothing
but u pile of debts with no money to pay
them. ..
“It was then Gerald Clayton taunted his
beautiful, sad little wife, with having married

.river, where Jack—my Jack lived .with his
any sort of answer; never tried to exonerate
herself in anyway, but her sensitive soul had
received a blow from which she never recov-
ered. _ . ,
“So a year went by. Gerald growing to
almost hate Jessie for the deception he hon-
estly thought she had praticed on him; while
she grew paler day by day, because of his
manner, and because all her love belonged to
Carrol Thorne, who, she learned too late,
was not dead but lived believing her false.
She tried hard to kill this love of hers. which
effort was not 'made any lighter by the knowl-
edge that u had all been her father’s fault.
“One morning a son was born to Gerald
Clayton—a beautiful boy with the brown
eyes and golden hair of Jessie who died that
day, and was buried soon in the Clayton
burying ground. -
“ 'And lo! the great bell far and wide
Was heard in all the country side
That Saturday at eventide.’ ”
After along pause auntie continued: ~ I.
"One day in looking through her desk
Gerald found a letter addressed to hint—it
was a full confession of his wife's love,‘and
the circumstances of her marriage with him-
self, and her utter ignorance‘of 'li'er father's
affairs. '
“Gerald Clayton never recovered from the
shock this letter gave him, together with the
knowledge of his own harsh treatment of his
gentle wife. He only lived long enough to
see his son enter college; then he, too, was
buried linderjthc wild roses in the church-
yar‘kfl
After another long pause during which I
sat pulling the kitten's cars in such an utterly
regardless manner as to cause the poor crea-
ture to utter a decided protest and rush off in
high dudgeon, Auntie said, softly : “Per-
haps you wonder at my knowing the story
so well, Jessie, but I have thought over it so
much since my mother told me, years ago,
that I seem to have it by heart. 'The letter
I have still, that, together with the story, has
come down through the years as a sort of
legend of the Clayton family. You may
read it, if you went to, child. I will give it
After a long time sitting in the twilight
there, I rose to go to my room.‘ As I bent
to kiss Auntie good-night, she laid her gentle
hands on my hair, murmuring softly: “They
say yon_are so like her, Jessie,-e.‘-.so like her,
with your eyes and hair and happy, light
heartedncss. But I’m sure your fate will
never be like hers, for Jack Thornton is very
true and brave-hearted and loving—ch, dear 1'
May the dear God be near you with His bles'
sed peace and rest forever! Good-night,
child !"
And the tears were on my lashes and the
blushes on my checks as I knelt at my win-
dow and looked through the soft starlight to
the light in the Thorton’s home across the
mother and crippled sister. ~
We are married now, Jack and I, but I
often think with sadness of Aunt Lefty’s
story. ,
Wilton Farmers’ Club.
Arum. 8, 1883.
A report of Andrew Jackson, delegate to
the Experimental Station at New Haven was
made, and which in substance is as follows——
that “I was introduced to Dr. Jenkins of the
Station by a teacher in the Scientlc school,
Prof. Brewer being dangerously sick and
Prof. Johnson absent. I became deeply in-
terested in fertilizers, their application, relia-
ble dealers, testing of seeds, operation of
analysis of soils, etc. He was glad to give
me any information I called for. Scales so
finely made that one-sixtieth of an inch of a
single hair could be weighed. They had
about 11 peres of experimean grounds in
operation. A cordial invitation to any of the
club to visit them and send for analysis or
seed test done cheerfully. After the ’report
had been read Mr. Adrew Jackson delivered
an essay on the evening’s subject, and which
we give below. '
“I can imagie a subject of no more im-
portance to the farmer than keeping up the
fertility of the farm. Various methods
have been recommended and adopted to ac-
complish the object, which have succeeded
to a greater or less extent according to the
feasibility of “the plan. Now it depends how
a man is sltuated; if he owns a farm of 200
to 300 acres and has plenty of capital he
might go into the dairy business and fill up
with stock and by goodmanagement the land,
might be kept in good condition and improve;
but a large majority of farmers own small
farms of 100 acres down embarrassed with
debt who need the income of the farm to pay
expense
I don‘t know of a farm that is managed in
the ordinary way where even all the sub-
stances are utilized and saved for manure
that a sufficient supply is obtained to run the
farm to the most profit and the best advan-
tage. It has become a settled fact that the
great West with their cheap and fertile lands
and good transporting facilities are-driving
us out of our own markets and the only way
to compete with them, is to adopt the most
improved system of culture that science and
experience have developed,_and raise such
crops‘as do not come in competition with
them, but the main thing to be taken into
consideratior is to getihc land in"the best
possible condition to produce all kinds of
crops.‘ If this is neglected all other means
will fail. Now the question comes, how
shall it be done? Leached ashes have been
used by farmers living near the staboard with
but little cartage, with the best of results,
and in this section of seaboard they have fa-
c’il_ities for getting sea-weed and other sub-
stances that we cannot get, living where we
db, not having that to keep us out. Oom-
mercisl fertilizers are used to aI great extent
in almost every State in thg‘ Unitin. I‘Lbelieve
none of our scientific men claim there is any-
thing better: than good stable manure, but
that these will answer as a substitute and fill
out the deficiency. The great difilculty with
farmers is to know how to apply them and
just what the soil wants or needs. Some
have told us to send them a sample of our
soil by taking a spade here and there in dif-
ferent parts of the field, mix well together
and send about one‘ quart of the mixture.
They will analyze it and tell us the missing
ingredient in the soil. Send us a fertilizer
or formula for any crop you wish to raise.
We have an experimental station managed by
competent professors, who”. business sisvto
experiment with different kinds or fertilizers
and give the farmer the benefit of it, and to
examine the different brands that are on the
market, tell its WM th‘?! are composed of
and-theiii commercial vsliie Iin market, (net
agricultural value), and thus not pretending
to tell us that if we apply them we shall reap
their estimated value from the land, neither
can they. I believe there are those (fertili-
zers) made that if we knew how and when to
apply in the right time and proportion, just
what the soil needed, these could be used at
a profit and farming, be made to pay. In
reading over a number of experiments with.
tfifierent manurial mixtures on various crops,
I find in some instances they have paid well;
a good investment, but a large majority have
failed to pay cost. A number of years ago a
man in New Jersey edited a paper called the
Working Farmer, who manufactured a for-
tizer called “Mupes' Improved Super Phos-
phate." I took the paper, got interested in
it,'and bought a lot .of the article; tried it on
most all crops. cor-n, potatos, oats, grass, etc}.
but received no perceptible benefit. Four or
five years ago I bought three. other kinds
(will boldthe makers' name) with same re-
sult, whether the fault pr ppplicstion or arti-
cle! cannot say. I followedllie directions.

of asinglefiiilure; here is a machine, you
want a duplicate, make a pattern and it will
come the same every time; but in making
experiments or a rule to fertilize. the soil is .-
very inucb unlikei it; one year a certain
kind and mode of using might be attended
with complete SUCCESS ;' make the sameex-
periment the next. year, the season wet or
dry, condition of the soil and other contin-
gencies occurring, might he followed by
quite an entire failure. I am in hopes and
have reason to believe that our scientific men
will by their persevcring efforts soon discover
some mode of iiiiprovcment-tiint wecan rely-
on. I yet fail to see any favorable prospect
of farmers 'investing to any great extent in
commercial fertilizers. I understand large
quantities of manure is brought front the
New York stables; at rrcasonable distance
in the country or near a landing, tours on
onions. tobacco and other crops. There is
no dispute about the' favorable resultant;
stable manure on most of crops in any year
if it is bought, for what it.il_ worth; that is
their advantage over, us, There; deesnoti
appear much prospect for farmers living ‘six
or eight miles back to prociire.’it';_~‘passing‘4
through speculator's hands, freight'and extra
curtage adding to its cost. There is a large
class of farmers who find it necessary for them
to keep their farm in payj'ng condition if pos-
sible from their .ownl‘res‘ources. _ As I biint
before intimated, ii. he has .grmpi'tal he can
keep stock and return all that is taken of!
back to the farm and his object 'will be ac-
complished, Experience and observation
has taught us that mixed farming generally
is the safest and pays thalliestherefi - It he
been claimed that guano and other fertilizers
on the market if used encluslvely.without
oth‘er manure for s .successibn of.'years,‘~it
will cease to have any effect, and exhaust the
land of vegetable matter. jNow .tliat seems};
to be the trouble with farmers. We are cul-
tivating our land year after year and dispos-
ing of our crops without returning an equiv-
growing poocr. , I think byadoptlpg 9‘!"

It draws nitrogen from the soil (and‘atmos-
that other crops cannot (or do not) reach, and
its roots fill the ground and rotting, leava .a
large amount of plant food for crops that fol-
low. A number of years ago Judge Bull,
editor of the Albany Cultivator, bought 200
acres of sandy barren soil west of Albany
and sowed it to daisies, and ploughde media
with some manure‘an'd folldvnd a number of
years it made the best of land. Many other
instances might be named where farms hav-
ing been run down-hare beenx-inade i‘ntlie

waste to plow under full-grown ‘or less so
green crops of clever. S'lppédqtycu make

ed with expense, at. the best. it .will cost
something to bring up a worn out farm.
Plowing under green buckwheat, clover, etc.,
is the quickest and cheapest way to do it and
I can see no better plan than this. I think
it would be for the interest of;»farmers'5to
save their own seed and‘not maths-mi: jbf
Western seed.“ A number of years ago they
used to all save it, not only for their own
consumption, but bushels tot-sell, but discon-
tinued it in part beacause it paid better to
raise hay to sell. Then it was no uncommon
thing to get two tons peracre on good ground,
but now we find clover about one ton per
acre is all we can get. [Secretary: I think
this in part and the larger part due to the
several dry seasons we have bad; the seed all
germinates but just at the right time when
the ltttle plantletsneed moisture. it is least-
present‘ and it struggles and most if not all
dollars worth of seed that we never realized
a cent’s benefit from. [Secretary: You
would have -done‘:the same find you will
your owu seed,] besides lying out of the use
of the land. I know the seed comes up but
there seems to he lacking‘vitality and‘it falls
to grow. What is the trouble ? I am in-
clined to think the seed we buy is raised in a
difleren soil and climate from ours and has
not become acclimated. Four or five years
since I wanted to plant four acres of potatoc
and thought I would change my seed. Sent
to Vermont for enough to plant the lot, of
the late rose variety, (if there is such a kind),
two feet eight inches each way; cut them.
three eyes to the hill, and used enough of my
own seed cut in the some way to plant two
rows across the lot. When the potatos came
up and got well under headWay I noticed a
difference in growth of the two rows of my
own being much larger. Could see the dif-
ference fortytrods from the lot and continued
soall through the season. When the crop
matured I made an estimate. and had' I
planted my own seed should have had one
hundred and fifty bushels more of good mer-
chantable potatos on the four acres, and was
disappointed in the result. Have planted

rice wheat yielded a trifle better than 26
bushels per acre. Clauses 20. ‘ The rice

out in moist ground the rice was not sfiected.
fierhaps the experience of others may differ
from mine, but. I am convinced that if we
buy seed it will be for our interest to go
South for it. , It 'will pay farmers to experi-
nlent on a small scale and once in a while get
old of the old beaten track. Last Summer
after I got through planting my corn I had a
hit of about three acres of smooth-faced land

‘fo'r hocd or grain crops, and if the crop fails
in’; consequence of drouth or poor seed-we
fall to carry out the programme. There is
ode more experiment I have in my mind to
help the thing out, and that is this: About
this last of May if we have land that is run
out and covered with. weeds and not much
grins, plow _it.up,sowg.it with buckwheat cndf
peéd‘ it'wrtb‘ clever roots to'strike into. One
h '2 hel will be sufficient for an acre at a cost
of; only one dollar, and when the buck-
wlloat matures let it lie on the ground as a
millch to protect the clover from drouth and
wilder. I have sown clover with buck-
wlieat but when I took the crop of! the
wdather‘ was dry and it died. I see no reason
wliy the buckwheat will not protect it some
night, say instead of‘ letting it lie on the
grdund and waste harvest it. We might say
. if we had a horse that had done our work in-
stepd of giving him the grain necessary to
keep him in condition and send it to market
——what can you expect of him. Just so with
tho‘. land, if it is not fed and well fed it will
'be in vain to look for much income.

that comet. We tied a piece of white rubber

went to bed, and when the girl woke us up
we laid for pa and ma. Pretty soon we heard

in the window, and I went down stairs to put

- HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.
In a 8011p GOLD WATCH, aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, a large proportion of metal is
needed only to stiffen and hold the engrav-
ed portions in place, and supply strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless. In
James 3083’ Patent Gold "raft-h C'ases this
WASTE is saved, and somm'rx and
STRENGTH increased by a simple process,
at one~half the cost. A plate of sour)
GOLD is soldered on each side of a. plate
of hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this the cases, backs,
centers, bezels, etc., are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. The gold is thick
enough to admit of all kinds of chasing,
engraving and engine turning. These
cases have been wom perfectly smooth by
use without removing the gold. This is
the only case made under (his process. Each
case is menial with a, valid guarantee
signed by the mamy'acturcrs warranting it to
wear.20 years. 150,000 of these Cases
now carried in the United States and
