THE LIGHT AT HOME. The light at lionie. how bright it beams When Waning shades around us fall; And from the lattice far it fleams. To lav and r. st and comfort call. , When wearied with the toils of day. Aiid strife for glory, gold, or fume, How Ttut to s ek the quiet way, Where loving lips will li.-t our nnme, Around the light at home. When through the daik and stormy night, The wayward wanderer homeward hies, How cheering is that twinkling light. Which through the forest g! oin he spies. It if tlie light of hone, ho feels That loving hearts will grant him there, And Mjftiy through his bo-.m stenls The joy and love that bautlnil care Around the light at home. The light at home, whene'er at lust It greets the seaman through the storm ; lie feels nr. more the chilling blast That beats upon the manly form. Long years upon the sea have fled Since loved ones gave their parting kiss, But the sad tours which then were shed. Will now be paid with rapturous bliss, Around the light at home. The light of home! how still and sweet, It peeps ffon yonder cottage door The weary laborer to greet When the rough toils of day aro o'er. Sad is the soul that does not know The blessings that the beams impart, The cheerful hopes and joys that ilow, And lighten up the heaviest heart, Around the light at home. Hoar mccb should a Cow Eat! Cows, to give in ilk, re. pure more food than most farmers imagine. J. W. Johnson, writing from IfnnicL to the Country Gentleman, gives an interesting report of some ex periments which have been made in Bavaria, from which the following is an extract : Our trials have confirmed the view that cows, to give the greatest possible quantity of milk, must daily receive :ut l consume one thirtieth of their live weight in bar, or an equivalent tlnr. f r. If more food be given, it goes to the formation of ilesb and fat, without occasioning a corresponding increase in the yield of milk: hut if. ou the contrary, les food lie furnished, the amount and value of the milk will be rrreatlv diminished.

QriTE Logical. An old Connecticut farmer went to his parson with the following serious inquiry: "Dr. T. do you believe in the new story they tell ahout the earth morng around the sun? And do you think that it is according to tho Scriptures. Ifitbetrne, how could Joshua command the sun to stand still;"' "Humph!" quoth the Doctor, scratching his caulillower wig, "Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, did he?" 'Yes," .juoth tho farmer. 'Well, it stcxd still, didn't it?" "Yes." "Very well: did you ever hear that he set it agoing again.'"' The farmer smoothed clown the nether past of Jus phut and vamosed, leaving the parson and Joshua to set the suu agoing at their first convenience. Revolt of the "Stroma Mixprn."
