No TIME to be lost now. The crops in the fall will depend very much on the work of this seedtime. The plough and the harrow must be kept at work, to say nothing of the shovel and the hoe.

I watch the mowers as they go

Through the long grass, a white-sleeved row;
With even strokes their scythes they swing,

In tune with merry whetstones ring;

Behind, the nimble youngsters run,

And toss the thick swaths in the sun. J. T. TROWBRIDGE.

A HORSE will do as much work

at hoeing corn as ten men. Run through the field with the horse

cultivator once a week, and the work with the hoe will be light. Where a hill is missing, plant an early kind, or else put in two or three hills of bush beans. A few pumpkins in the cornfield will do little harm, and they are handy to feed to cows in the fall. A corn .stubble yellow with pumpkins, means a jolly thanksgiving for cattle.
