But this ob- jection is partly founded on mistake, and may, to a great extent" be obviated by choosing a bit of ground that has been undo mellow and clean by previous prc- paration, Land must be crceedingly foul that will not do for turnips the second year after grass. A good fall ploughing and” a spring ploughing just before the time for turnip sowing, or two spring ploughing: arid the thorough use of the cultivator, will usually put suitable land into such a condition that it will not only be friable and mellow, butq-uite free from weeds and grass. Thorough preparation of the soil is the great pre- liminary fora comfortable and successful time in raising turnips. Another diffi- culty arising out of mistake is occasioned by broadcast sowing. \Vchud supposed that this mode of putting ill turnips was quite obsolete, but from some cases we have actually met \lith, we are inclined to think not a low farmers fall into this error. Three nsiderations ought for ever to condc rondcast turnip sow- ing: First, th lant requires a soft, deep seed-bed, s ch as it is well nigh impossible to provide in the general level ‘of a field, and hence the great utility of throwing up ridges to sow on. Secondly, it is of great advantage to scatter some fertilizer, such as guano, bone dust. supcrphosphatc of lime, &c., in the drills along with the turnip seed. Such a course provides ready stimulus for the young plants, hurries their growth so that they get out of the reach of the fly and of weeds. and makes-a great difference in the yield to the form- er's advantage. Last, but not least, there is the thinning out. Great must be the patience, meekness, and power of endurance of the man who can calmly and with unrufllcrl temper plod through the task of thinning a broad-cast turnip field. And. let him possess these quali- ties, howcvor eminentlyfllc cannot pre- vent the task on his time being very great, as compared with what it requires to clean out a field of turnips in drills. \Vitll a thin-bladed hoc, eight inches wide, you pass along the rows at a mod- erate walk, a single quick blow being sufficient to make the required gap when once you get expert at the business. The truth is, that with proper tools to work with, and a good system of culture, turnip-growing is by no means hard work. A double-mould plough to make the ridges, some sort of a seed drill to drop the seed, a proper turnip hoc to thin out the plants. and a scufllcr or horse-shoe to stir the soil between the rows, will so lighten the work uttcndent on this crop, that no reasonable man can find it ill his heart to complain ofit. The difference between rt poor yield caused by a want ofthe right implements, and a good yield obtained by their use, will of- ten pay the cost of the implements ill a single season,- and thus furnish their fu- ture use as so much clear profit. 'Disliko of innovation. if not positive sloth. keeps many farmers from growing turnips. There are not a lcw who have so poor an opinion of their calling, that they do not expect any real improvements to be introduccdin it. Other avocations are constantly being benefitted by inven- tions and by improved and labor-saving methods of management, but farming must be carried on according to the fixed and dull routine of old time ways. “ Fa- tller and grand-father. and greabgrand- father made a comfortable living in the old-fashioned method ; they never heard of Skirving‘s or Laiug's turnips, of guano bono manure, or superphospbate, and what was pond enough for them will do for me!" Thus many reasou,——no, not reasons but (birch—«ls they slowly rum- ble on ill the old time-worn rut. Per- haps there is no class of people who so tcnaeiously stickfo old ways. and are naturally so averse to innovations us far- mcrs. And it cannot be denied that some of them yield to sloth ill regard to such matters. The highest authority bat uflirmed some terrible, insupcmble diffi. culty to be contended against, when there is something to be done. especially if lt requires ll littlo extra efforz. It cannot be affirmed with any truth that farmers as a class are indolent, but along with steady physical toil. there is often a men- tal sluggishncss which indisposcs people ‘5 take any special pains in a new direc- 9l'l- i It is too much trouble.

An ingenious attorney, who always made it a point lo gal Iris case, was applied to by a fellow who had stolen some pork. to defend him. Accordingly, lll his usual inventive way, be ruined the evidence on on which the plaintive relied, and the jury brought on a verdict of not guilty. After the verdict was declared, as the fellow was leaving the court house he whispered to his attorney thus:—

“ Squire, what shall 1 do with the pork, for l have got it yet? "

“ Eat it,” replied the lawyer, “ for the jury say you did not steal it.”

A singular old gentleman was pre- sented with a doctor's bill. After look- ing over its contents he desired the col- lectors to tell the M. D. that the medicine he should certainly pay for, but he should return the visits.

A barrister observed to a learned bro- thcr in court. that he thought his whisk» era were very unprofessional.

“ You are right." replied his friend. ‘ a lawyer cannot be too barcfaced."
