Kr"iu thi- iir.hi i n ( 'ultiv.itor. November is the wheat sowino- month of the cotton States. A little wheat is tint in before and snnifx after, but the bulk of the crop is sown in November. It is held de - sirable not to sow till after frost, to circumvent the tiv, and this usually defers the seeding to the iirst of November. Land tliar litis hptm rundown with a long series of cot ton crons needs the rest afforded bv a small irrain eroo. and mav he a,i. vantaeeouslv sown in wheat if there is more of it than is called for by the oat cinii. Whprp Hip intpnsivo system is practiced, the super - abundant land may be very won utilized in this way. A half bushel of seed ner :u-ro is' pnmiHi for nrli. nary land. Sow the hard v. red like the purple stem Wheat sowing will close up crop tarm roads; building and repairing houses, and putting out fruit and shade, trees. These things, and others like them, will furnish abua daut work for all the good, bright d i s of winter. These could not be looked after during the pressure of working the summer crops; and un less done dnring the comparative leisure of winter, will not be done at all. It will be remembered that wells fall in autumn and early winter. This shows that the amount of water in the earth is usually least at those seasons. Springs, there - fore, can be detected and located better in that neriod than at anv other time of the year; and every . iii a. ciimare so liioiine. oi snrmner ( rout hs tie. value ol namn am. tor t he nroduction ot corn fnr tl..- nrn.lnrfiAn nf prvrn enn ior im protiuciion oi corn, can i ii i nVpr erinnrpil- anil vet u-iri"-) u V ?"ueu;. au u . how inucli of it is not utilized for ,at'k of -draiuaf?e mainly imperfect drainage !

By this we mean that if a hole be dug in an undrained soil, and water stands in it one foot from the surface, with ditches four feet deep, water would stand in the hole three feet or more from results the water level should be at least three feet from the surface, so says ample experience.

Imagine her surprise when I pulled out a smooth, round brass button, with quite a large shank to it. ''This seems to have been in there a great many years," I said. To my surprise the young woman crouched in the corner iu undisguis ed terror. "Oh doctor!" she said : -'what is that awful noise'."' It was nothing but a wagon rum bling by. but I instantly saw what the trouble was. Her hearing had become normal when I removed tnar button, and she was irightened and bewildered at the jumble of con tusing sounds. The ticking of the clock', chirp ing of the canary, or dripping of water distressed her. and the rustle of her own silk dress made her start with fear.

An old English dramatist calls .Jesus of Nazareth, "the first true gentleman that ever breathed." lie is correct, if the true meaning oi me name is Dome in mind, though the remark may at first seem a light one. The Master was gentle in everything; in carriage, temper, aims and desires. He was mild, calm, quiet and temperate, He was not hasty, nor overbearing, nor proud, nor oppressive, nor exor, bitant. He was not, onlv oiiiet to fbrffive those who had ininrprl Flim . but He sought them oat. as iii the case of Teter, that He might offer them His forgiveness Again and aerain He illustrated. by His acts, His own words to His disciples: "If, therefore, thou art : offering thy gift at the altar, and mere rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee, leave there tliy gilt beiore the altar and go thy way. First be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thv sift." A story of the Crimeau war may, perhaps, illustrate these words of the Master, and also teach us that the true gentleman is anxious to forgive an injury.
