JMfl OULTIVATIOI. 1ST Wmitnl to Iraruw. Malie Clean -Una of the greatest mistakes in tha > of the Ontario farmer at the pru- ne is, without doubt, the mall i of attention given to autumn oulti- No mean* oan be adopted whioh feel to much for tbe outlay in rluan- a laud . aim tnia method of doing it I within tba reeou of avery farm.-r. " Clean farms tor Ontario " should be the watchword for every tiller of the noil in thia Provmo. That our farms should b ' clean is a possibility, and every rmer wbo is trnu I bis own beet interests ill conatantly exert himself to rid bia farm of every kind ot noxious weeds, and also tha roadsides that may border upon it. By autumn cultivation 1 mean that cultivation whioh consists in lightly plowing the land as soon aa possible after tbe erop removed, and In harrowing iltwioe ith an interval between the barrowings ior to the time of tbe late and deep oogbing, whioh precedes the oomiag , of winter. The two prime objects ot these ^operations are first, to bury any weeda "growing in thu stnbbis that would other- rise go to seed, and second, to unoourage ^germination of seeds lying in the ground, ad whuh are then destroyed either by ' the harrowing whioh oomes later, or by the late ploughing before winter. In tbe eooompliahment of these two objects a third ia realized, although it may not be sought. Boil decomposition ia promoted through the weathering" of the expoaed surfaces, and inert plant food ia thus un- locked and made valuable f M use by the next year's orop. This mode of oultivation is certain destruction to the orop of weeds growing upon tbe soil at the dose of harvest ; that is, when ths work is thoroughly done. Ragweed, tbe sow thistle one of the most difficult of weedi to eradicate tbe Canada thistle, burdocks and various kinds of cookie, all of which will be found growing in the atubbles where they exist, will thus be buried. No other means of deatroying ragweed and oookle are so affluent for the outlay. The drat ploughing not only buries the weeds mentioned with many others, whioh though lees troublesome anonld be given no <|uarter, but il briuga many seeds that may be Ijmg dormant in the soil so near tbe anrfaoe that they will germinate. The harrowing which follows in dua time destroys theae, after whiofa other seeda germinate to be destroyed in torn by tbe late ploughing. By thin aimple mode of cultivation vast ( uantities of tha aeeda of suoh plants as wild oats, wild tlax, the wild {wa, wild mustard and pigeon weed will be destroyed, (or, nnleea in the oaae of tbe wild pea and wild mustard, these naturally put (orth the effort to grow in autumn. There is ample soope for tbe exercise of good judgment as to the preciae nature of tbe lirat ploughing, dependent upon the kinds of weeda that may be growing, and tbe nature and condition of tbe lami. Where weeds are already growing it is important that they should all !). put out of ight. Thia the gang-plough will not do effectively as al present used. If the gang- plough is to be need much for this purpose, the manufacturers will have to pui some form of a skimmer upon them to make tbe burial of the weeds complete. The two- furrow plough does better work than tbe ordinary gang- plough, but it also should have a skimmer. For destroying thistles the single plongh wilh broad share which outs off all the thistles is best. It also should be used with a skimmer, and the ploughing should be shallow so as not to bring up the horizontal roots near lha aurfaoe, for when so placed they are sure to grow if the weather is damp. The first ploughing in any oass jhouid be aballow, aa it is easily done, and answer., the purpose quite as well as deep ploughing. In some sections the farmers have been practising autumn cultivation for years, in others it has never been attempted. It ia scarcely necessary to add that where au- tumn oultivation baa not been introduced weeds abound, and oropi leu remunerative are harvested. In sections where soils are naturally alilT it is less essential, for weeds do not grow there so readily, but it will prove of much advantage in any soil. Autumn cultivation is our practice, of course, at this farm, and so btmolloial are tba reeulta that we cannot for a moment think of doing without il. Bat wa are not making much tine ot the gang plongh ; we are using the two-furrow plough nmita.1. Tbe gang ploughs that we have here do not turn tbe furrows aulHoieutly well and so do not for the time being destroy all weed growth. All our soils whioh have grown grain are so treated, except such as have been sown to grass, or are to be sown with winter wheat or rye. I am aware there are difficulties In the way of autumn cultivation. Tha work to be moat effective should be done at once after harvest. There is, of leu time*, no labor to be spared for this purpose. The teams are emploved with the harvest and ao cannot be apared to plough. Tbe remedy is plain, though it may be very difficult of application. It is this : Hire more labor and keep more horses. Although there IB large expense connected witn keep- ing horeea in winter, tha number of work- ing horses in the I'rovinoe should be in- creased. Yours etc., TM..N. Sm.

II is oabled from London that th hht-rioal Drury LM Theatre ia to be pnlloit down at the expiration of the loaue iu 1X94. In the person of Miss Bmilie Sail* America baa pro.inoed a woman, who, during the past f.-w rnuuihi has been ttatomahmg London Music Hall patrons by her wonderful feats of contortion, says the Cincinnati knquirtr, Home of her tricks aorpasi the moat wonderful of thoee performed by the "snake man," witbont whom no circus is complete. She discovered that abe posa.-saed her peculiar ability by pure accident. After witnessing the feats of a male oon- tortonial at a theatre one uight Miss Sell* went home, tried to imitate them, and, to her surprise, found she oouli do it. Then th i commenced to practise, with a view to going on the stage, and in a ahori time she bad made her spinal oolnmn and joints *o flexible that the body oooid assume almost any position. It is the easiest thing in the world for her to turn her back on you, and. witbont moving bar feet, twiat the upper part of her body so aa to face you. Another Uvorite trick of beri ia to lie on the stage, rai*e hes/igbt foot, twist her leg and ose the heel of her foot as a pillow for ber head, buoh little thing* M twisting her legs sronud the bapk of ber neck are common feats for her. One day she called on Dr. D wight, the famous Philadelphia physician, whose astonishment at her autios km-* no bounds, ind he said he wouldn't ba sur- prised to hear of her snapping ber *pmal cord and dropping dead. Miss Sells, however, aay* that she feels no pain or giddiness when one is on the tae. Many peopia thought the used a snake oil " to limber ber bonee, ami a few have offered her large prio*s for a few bottles, but the (act is the awe noth- ing l )n one oooaiion a visitor forced his way in 10 ber drr**iug-room and, natoniug a bottle of embrocation, nipped a leu- dollar bill into her maid's baud aud daahttd off with the prize. Miss Hells eats anything light and easily digested, and sb "'.; h tly practise* a little Jeff -a g^'ii- or. tbe mage. Oil the modern stage there are many nun and boys who earn a living aa con- tortionist*, but vary few women. The aalhoritiei, however, declare that cols women are recorded as performing in au- oient Egypt, and but few ioaiauoaa were tnuwn ot men and boys contorting iu Greece and Home, while in the early Ssuii translations of tbe lioauel it is slatted that the daughter of Uorodiaa tumbled" before Herod.
