Wbat W It aired art be Mrmer.
This is a big subject, and we can on
ly briefly deal with it bow. What wr
my, however, is prompted by sn
earnest desMfer tbs progress of agri
culture and the good of those engaged
in it. Thit the fisrmur should ki#v
hit duty will not be disputed, end that
to fully do it is only being true to his
own interest, is equally true. One of
the most important duties is <o keep
himself posted in ail matters pertain
ing to his calling. If Ms early educa
tion was liberal, he entered upon the
active, earnest du'les of life with a
mind wall stored with theoretired pro
positions and well prepared to prod by
experience. If not, he may do much
to retrieve his esrlv loss by a diligent
improvement of leisure hours. If,
however, he is so circumstanced as to
be too busy or too old to learn, (which
we don’t believe ever happens,) he
should sea that his children bars all
the advantage of education to be had.
The merchant who understands the
resources of the country, the condition
uf foreign trade, and the state of the
markets, possesses great advantages
over him who is ignorant of these
matters. It is none the less true that
the farmer who understands his busi
ness in all its departments and rela
tions is mors successful than him who
is ignorant.
Farming is not only a profession,
bn* of all professions it embraces the
widest range of scientific propositions
and practical facts, and affords the
widest field for the exercise of the
philosophic and analytic mind. In
stead of the brightest boys being sent
to medical colleges for a field worthy
of their talents, they should be educa
ted in the science and instructed prac
tically in the duties of agriculture.—
It is a prominent duty of the farmer to
so pursue his calling as to inspire a
respect for it in the minds of his chil
dren, and so traiu them that they shall
bs able to pursue it successfully, which
can only be effected by his availing
himself of everr advantage resulting
from the discoveries of science and the
accumulated experience of the past.
This will at once strip farming of al
most every disagreeable feature, and
clothe it with a'tractiona possessed by
bo other business. As at present con
ducted, there is a large amount of very
disagreeable labor required to be
performed in farming, and it is mainly
to this fact that we owe the desertion
of that business for others by country
boys. Science and human skill must
relieve this, end undoubtedly will, it
the farmer will avail himself of their
aids.
op* ■lag Mi e Bowels of the Earth
The city of Hertford, Conn., it an en
terprising places, and Mrs. Colt is one ol
its most enterprising inhabitants. She
has extensive greenhouses, and it is pro
posed to warm them with hot water. For
this purpose an artesian well is being sunk,
with the intention of conveying it down
until it penetrates the bowels of the earth;
end strikes the region of hot water I This
easy seem like something of in undertak
ing, hut it must be accomplished if a Yan
kee iedy wishes too keep her conservato
ries warm. The Hartford Times thus re
port the progress:
The new .Artesian well now in progress
on the Colt estate, is situated only four
rode north of the old one. The old one
wee abaodisced at a depth of 270 feet
This one ha* already been drilled out tc
the depth of about 740 feet, and is mak
irg dew progress at the rate of half a fool
a day through the hardest rock ever en
countered by the contractor, Mr. Carol!—
end he his worked at Artesian well bor
in Canada and cities of the Writ. Si
hard i* the rock that it dulls the drills ai
the first blow, end they have to be drawn
up and sharpeued every time after they
have been allowed to fall upon the rock
Which if a kind ot iron (tone, i be bole
11 five inches in diameter. JFboden shaft*
12 feet tong, are coupled together and the
drill attached, the whole moving by n
walking beam, and (team engine. The
hard rock, several feet thick, is now be
lieved to be bored very nearly through.
It was Colonel Colt’s idea to sink an
Artesian well deeper than any in France
er the one at St Lonis, in order to get, il
possible, hot water from the regions of the
earth's interior heat, to warm his exten
sirs greenhouse* with. This might be ■
difficult and eoetiy job. The deepest ex
fating wells arc, we believe, not more than
2700 feat deep.
How, the warmth caused by the molten
Best of the earth’s fiery interior is com
puted to increase at the rate of about one
degree to every 64 feet of descent—af'er
going down 1800 feet to begin with —
Short of eighteen hundred feet, the in
ereese is too slight to be taken into ao
count. The rate increases to a degree ev
ery 64 fast, after reaching a depth of, we
believe, (boat thirty-five thousand feet,
and that rate, it is calculated, gradually
iaeras*** with the increase of depth
Bat these facts aflord little encourage
meet to any plan for obtaining hot water
by boring. Mature herself has saved this
trouble for os in the eases where “hot
springe,” ooming np from*the unfathom*
bfa and mysterious depths, boil over tbs
surface. But there ere none of these this
side of Arkansas, as the knowledge seek
ing Senator from Indiana perfectly well
knows.
•V* The editor of tbs Louisville
Journal says, If be possessed fie most
valuable thing* in the world, and was
about to will them away, the following
would be hie plan for distribution :
1 would give the world truth and
fHendahip, which are bow ao very

tewto JM|S Character by the <
Hair.
Coarse black hair and dark skin 1
signify great power of character, with
a tendency to sensuality. Fine hair ^
and dark skin indicate strength of char*
acter, along with purity and goodness.
Stiff, straight black hair and beard
Indicate a coarse, strong, rigid, straight
forward character. Fine dark brown
hair signifies the combination of exqui
site sensibilities, with great strength
of character. Flat, clinging, straight
hair, a melancholy hut extremely con
stant character. Harsh, uprighthair is
the sign of a reticent and sour spirit; a
Stubborn and harsh character. Coarse
yd hair and whiskers indicate power
ful animal passions, together with a
corresponding strength of character.
Auburn hair, with florid countenance,
denote the highest order of sentiment
aud intensity of feeliug, purity ofehar
acter, with the highest capacity for
enjoyment or suffering. Straight,
even, smooth and glossy hair denote
strength, harmony, evenness of charac
ter, hearty affections, a clear head, and
superior talents.
Fine, silky, supple hair is the mark
of a delicate aud sensitive temperament,
and speaks in favor of the mind and
character of the owner. Crisp, curly
hair indicates a hasty, somewhat im
petuous aud rash character. White
hair denotes a lymphautic and indolent
constitution ; and we may-add that be
sides these qualities there are chemi
cal properties residing in the coloring
matter of the hair-tube which undoubt
ed y have some effect upon the dis
po-ition. Thus, red-haired people are
notoriously passionate. Now, red hair
is proved by analysis to contain a large
amount of sulphur, while very black is
colored with almost pure carbon. The
presence of these matters in the blood
points peculiarities of tcmperamentaiHl
leeling which are almost universally
associated with them.' The very way
in which the hair flows is strongly
indicative of the ruling passions and
inclinations, and perhaps a clever per
son could give a shrewd guess at the
manner ol a man or women’s disposi
l oti by only seeing the backs of their
heads.
iseei-rooi sugar
The Commissioner of Agriculture com
municate some statirtics relating to the
manufacture of beet-root sugar, and the
decline of the cane^ugar interest in the
Gulf States makes the subject important
as well as intetcsting The first Napoleon
desiring to exclude from the empire the
sugar of the British colonies, offered a
prise of one million francs for the most
successful method of obtaining a supply
of indigeous sugar. The beet root offer
ed the staple, but up to 1818 the manu
facture of such sugar had made little pro
gress, while twenty years later there were
268 factories in France, Germany, Sweden
and Russia. Ten years afterward, 1848,
France had 294 factories, Prussia 846, and
Russia 425. January 1, 1S68, no less than
3,173 refineries of beet-root sugar, 449 of
which arc in Frauce, were in successful
| operation in Europe. The gigantic growth
i of this single interest is best shown in the
: statement of the total production iu 1S28,
which was 7,000 tons, while last year the |
-product was 663,000 tons, worth 8100,- j
000,000. In 1867, 15,000 tor-s of raw I
beet sugar were imported into London, and j
a single sugar refiner, who uses 300 tons '
per week, offers eighteen shillings (84 50)
per ton for 6.000 tons of English sugar
beet. In this country a beginning in beet
sugar making has been quite successful at
Chatswortb, Illinois. It is unquestionably
feasible in every part of the country where j
the aoil is suitable tor the crop, and the
importance of a general introduction of
this industry is shown in the statement
that we are now paying an average of
about 833,000,000 in gold, or more than
850,000,000 in currency, for foreign sugar
and molasses which might be manufactur
| ed in this country.
Economy In the Hllrhon.
Intelligence and skill are required iu
the Judicious management of the kitch
en.
As the kitchen is the most impor
tant room in the house, so, too, the la
bors of the kitchen are the most impor
tant, and call for more practical knowl
edge than any oilier branch of house
keeping. Upou their intelligent per
forwauce depend iu a large degree, the
general health, comfort and prosperity
of the household. Wholesome food,
only, is proraotive of health and
strength ; savory dishes all relish and
prefer, white the *‘lit'le leaks that sink
the ship’’ will assuredly flow from a
lack of economy iu the kitchen.
We are, as a people, seriously defi
cient iu the general practice of skill
1 and economy iu the household, aud
I especially in culinary tabors. A
| French family would live well, ou
; what is often wasted in an American
kitchen. True, we may have skilled
cooks, frugal, model housekeepers, hut
they are the exceptions, not the rule.
Nor is it straugc, that such is the fact,
j What have we ever done whereby to
' become skilled and perfected in the
' refinement—the science—of cookery
and the arts of housekeeping ? We say
science of cookery, like Careme, have
converted the art into a science, made
I taste yield to chemistry, and the
kitchen to become instead of workshop
a laboratory.
In all tiic trades and professions of
life, we give years of time and study
to obtain a proper knowledge thereof, -
yet here is an intricate science, mostj
intimately couuected with our daily :
life and being, to which we never pay j
tribute, but from which we receive it,
twice or thrice each day. Can we
reasonably expect excellence in cook
ery, much less mastery of the science,
lrom those whose only knowledge
thereof consists of information now j
and ihen, here und there, found floa>iug
among the unskilled masses?
-The Illinois Stale Register says j
that during the war the quarter
master s department, instructed by the
uigger loving authority at Washington,
paid negro teamsters tweuly-live dol
lars per month and rations, while
white soldiers detailed for du.y as
teamsters. « ere only paid aixteeu dol
