1 he cultivation of this croo is becominiir
vi on 111 tins country, ir 1. now
recogniitetl as a valuable production, easily
cultivated on auj soil possessing tolerable
ticnnes, anu, in common seasons, ia as cer
tain as any other crop. Light, aan.ly land
will, if dren-ed with lime or wood aefies, be
certain to give a better return cultivated in
this grian than in any oiher. The yield per
acre ia of cnuree variable, but in favorable
seasons the product may be set down from
thirty to forty bunhels, but it frequently ex.
ceeds that quantity, more fiequently, per
hapa, than it lulls ahort ofit. When wellmatur
ed, buckwheat constitutes a mort excellent
feed for most animals. It should, however, be
ground before feeding, to pievent useless
waste. Pine plains land is perhaps the best
soil fur the cultivation of this grain. When
new, it will produce abumlantlv : the kerni
wil! be plump and full, and the flour possess
a degree of aweetness superior to that of the
ame grain when grown on lauds of a loamy
texture or in which there is a liberal admix

calcareous mauer appears to be indii.pen-.a'jle.
This may be supplied in part by wood ahes;
but whrn lime can be obtained at a reason
able cst it will be found more economical
and efficient. The quantity will be fouml
to vary from twenty-five to one hundred
bushel per acre.
My method of erowinz this s-rain cn li-Kt
soils is as follows: I plow in the autumn or
last of August, lui uinir in the vegetable mat

row is again applied, the directum or draft'
oeitif ucroie tne lurruus. ll.e operation
of harrowing i repeated, after that, once a
week 'till the ground freezes. As early in
the spring a the soil will permit I apply my
dressing. If this consist of lime exclusively
it is sown on by hand, but I have generally
used calcareous matter in tiuiun with other
fertilisers where the sml is thin and light a
practice rendered necresary, in my opinion,
oy the deficiency of humue obvious in such
lands. The comiiost ux-l for this nurnuae.
and which I hate invariably found admirably

being ued. Alter thi can it untu the land
and spread it , It is then harrowed in care
fulljr and tumid under with a light furrow.
After again harrowing it both the plow and
harrow passing aern the original furrows
the seed is sown three peck being the quao
titt allowed per statute acre) and covered in
with a light harrow, followed by the roll.
The action of the latler implement secures
an een and smooth surface, greatly farili
laling the process of barrelling, end prevents
the loss of much valuable grain. As soon
as the plants are fairly up, top-dressing of
proudrelte, about fifty pounds to the acre,
mtifd wiih two bushels of wood ashes anil
one buhel of gypsum, is applied, and the
opetation repeated every week until the pe
riod of inflorescence. In harvesting the grain
I romnienre as soon the kernel on the
tower and midmost sprays are fully ripe, or
perhaps a little before. I prefer damp or
even wet weather for culling. The crop,
after being mowed, ia pitched into stnill
bunches and allowed ti remain for several
days, or till the foliage has fallen off, when it
is placed in a cart and conveyed immediately
In the barn and ihrashrd. the grain should
be damp, it will be advisable to spread it fur
a lew ilays.and turn it frequently before pack
ing, to prevent its becoming mouldy. Se
vere l..ses frequently occur Irom a neglect of
this precaution. The grain germinates at a
very low temperature, and when packed in a
humid atate the heat produced by Icr.nenta
tion causes it to sprout, which greatly .de
teriorates the quality of the flour lor culinary
purposes. The haulm of buckwheat is used
for satiety of purpose. ChalTid and tniaed
with corn and cob mel, Indian bran, shorts
or raped rnoia, it makes quite a nutritious
food for must animals. It wa former! used
a litter in atables, but as it is quite impos
sible to thrash it perfectly clean, the practice
has bern relinn.ui.hed bv most larmers. aa It

Sl'CII A TEMPER.
It. S. aRIHl'ft.
"That child will be the death of me yet !
Oh, he hs such a temper ! Just aee how he
acts. You John ! Hush this instant, and do
sslt.lljou!"
These sentences were tittered in an exci
ted voice by a mother who had come suddenly
up-Mi l.erlittl b..y, a bright ty, active lit
tle fellow, three year old, who had dicover
ed a nw amuaettient, and was enjoying him

OUR LIBERTY.
"Dear little fellow!" was on the aunt's
lips, aa her ejes fell 11 pun the child's ani
mated face but ere the words were spoken
his mother had started forward and ezeil him
by the arm. With a sudden jerk she drew
him several feet away Inim his mimic build
ing, exclaiming as she did so, in angry tones :
Vou bad boy ! How time you do this i
Just see your fathei's books scattered all over
the floor."
A moment or two she held him with a firm
grip! then pushing him from, her she ad
ded Put every book in its place on the
ii.es, aim uuii 1 you ure tu touch them
again."
Released from his mother's hand. Jntin. in.
stead of obevine her. threw himself n mm il,
floor and commenced kicking and screainin"
in uncontrollable passion. 0
"Just see hdw he acts, Mary!" repeated
the mother. That temper will be his ruin.
John, hush this instant, and get up as I tell
you."
But the child's passion was a whirlwind,
and subsided not until his force was spent.
In her blind anger the mother stooped over
the boy, and was raising her hand to punish
him, when her sister drew her back and whis
pered " Don't, Anna ! A blow now will do harm."
And she drew the excited mother from the
room.
" Mary ! This is not rig-lit." said the lat
ter with some severity of manner, aa sunn
as they were out of the library. Vou mut
not come between me and mv children. If
you take their part when I reprove or punish,
all my control over litem will be gone. '
" Dear sister! " replied Mary, with much
feeling and great tendemessof manner. " for-
gi'e me if 1 have erred ; and let the pure
love I feel for you and your child be inv atiol
ogist." V
There was a silence for nearly a minute.
A calm was falling upon the mother's spirit.
" lie has such a drea llul temper, Mary !
If it is not subdued now, it will curse his
whole life. You duii't know how it troubles
me."
" Ynurduty, it seem, to me, is very plain.

1 must break that temner while he is

" You cannot. It will only gain strength
by conflict," replied the sister.
" Is the case then so hopeless? I will not

" Oh, no not hopeleas by any means. Mow
