FARM-YARD SONG 
Over the hill the farm-boy goes, 
His shadow lengthens along the laud— 
A giant stulf In a giant hand; 
In the poplur-trco, above the spring 
The kutydld begins to sing; 
The Oarly dews arc falling. 
Into the stolie-beup darts the mink; 
The swallows skim the river's brink; 
And home to the woodbind tly the crows, 
When over the hill the iarin-boy goes. 
Cheerily calling, 
“ Co’, boss ! co’, boss! co’! co’! co’! ” 
Farther, farther, over the hill. 
Faintly calling, calling still, 
“ Co’, boss! co’, boss! co’! co! ” 
Into the yard the farmer goes 
With grateful heart at the close of day; 
1 lurncss and chain arc hung away ; 
In the wagon shod stand yoke and plow ; 
The straw’s in the stack, the hay in the mow, 
The cooling dews are falling; 
The friendly sheep his welcome Meat, 
The pigs come grunting to his feet, 
The whinnying mure her master knows, 
When Into the yard (he farmer goes, 
Ills cattle calling, 
" Co', boss! co', boss I co'! co’! co’! ” 
While still the cow-boy, far away, 
Goes seeking those that have gone astray, 
“ Co', bossl co', boss I co'! co'2 
Now to her task the milkmaid goon; 
The cattle come crowding through the gate, 
Liuving, pushing, little and great; 
About the trough by the farm-yard pump 
The frolicsome yearlings frisk and Jump 
While the pleasant (lows ure falling; 
The now milch heifer Is quick and shy, 
Hut the old cow waits with tranquil eye; 
And the white stream Into the bright pall flows 
When to her task the milkmaid goes, 
Soothingly calling, 
“ So, boss ! so, boss I so! so! so! ” 
Thu oheerfnl milkmaid takes her stool, 
And sits and milks lu the twilight cool, 
Saying, "So! so, boss! so! so! ” 
To supper, at last, the farmer goes; 
The apples are pared, the paper read, 
The stories are told, then all to bed. 
Without, the cricket's ceaseless song 
Makes shrill the alienee all night long; 
The heavy dew* are falling; 
The housewife’s hand lias turned the lock; 
Drowsily ticks the kitchen dock; 
The household sinks to deep repose; 
Hut still in his sleep the l.irm-boy goes 
Singing, culling, 
“ Co’, boss! co'. boss! co’! co’I co’l 
Ami oft the milkmaid, in her dreams. 
Drums in the pull with the flashing streams, 
Murmuring, ” So, boss ! so ! ”

LETTERS FROM GIRLS,

1 want to tell the girls how I make tea¬ 
pot mats out of pumpkin seeds. 1 think 
them quite pretty. 1 lake about twenty 
seeds for the center; string them through 
the sharp end and tie the string firmly; 
next lime round put two together between 
every one, and next time three; then four, 
which will make it largo enough; then fill 
up the empty places on the edge with some 
bright colored yarn. They arc quite dura¬ 
ble, as well as pretty. 
the silk carefully from the corn. Put it in a 
steamer, over a kettle of hot water. Steam 
ten minutes. Then draw a loiife through 
each row of kernels, and scrape out the 
pulp, leaving the hulls on the cob. Spread 
on plates and dry carefully without scorch* 
ing. We think it much better this way.—

Seeing a pattern for a newspaper basket 
by Ella F., hi Rural New-Yorker, wc 
tried it, but made one or two alterations. 
Instead of pasting gilt paper over the joints, 
we took some zephyr (of a color to match 
the basket.) and let a number of ends come 
on top. Then we fringed them out, and they 
look like small rosettes. It is less trouble 
than gilt paper. — Allik and Kate. 
Skeleton Leave* it ml Zephyr Flowers. 
I don’t think I exactly understand Hat¬ 
tie’s method of making zephyr flowers; if 
I do, it must take a great amount of zephyr 
and time too. I have seen them made in 
l he same manner as hair flowers, only using 
coarse wire, I would like to learn how to 
make skeleton leaves. I saw some beauti¬ 
ful ones at the Fair.— Lulu.
