have "esrly works" as well as taeir
neighbcrs. The soop suds frem the
wash tub is a manure that may be ap-
Piled with safety and with profit IN the
spring. and yet how few ever use them,
except to enrich the earth around their
Kitchens, and make Ioathsome mud
holes, when perfumed flowers, luscious
fruits. and mammoth vegetables, might
have been made by them. We do not
yet properly appreciate the importance
Of a garden. The bearing that il has
upon the happiness and health Of a "a
mily is plainly pereeptible whenever
we hnd a weil conducted garden; how
highly important then that we should
understand the proper food Of plants.
He would certainly be mad physician
who would give his feyered patients
stimulants to raise the fever higher and
higher; until vitality was consumed.
SO with the gardener; plants are fre-
quently stimulated to death, for want
OF proper cooling food. Our garden
soils can scarcely be too rich. but it
must be richness retentiye of mois-
ture. and not, as would be the case il
the stable manure was applied in the
spring, be a richness which burned
everything in contact with it. Ho,
then, for your wagons and your wheel
barrows. load them up, and cover your
gardens quickly; pillow them up. turn
the manure under, and when the early
seed time comes. you need not fear but
a harvest will follow.

GOOD FARMING.

a writer in the New York Journal
Of Commerce, who signs himself a
Traveller" gives the following account
Of what he saw and learned on the farm
Of Mr. Johnston, near the town Of
Geneva, New York, which he visited
recently.
lie says that Mr.. j. has on his farm
a COW. which. through the month Of
June, 1913, gave forty-two quarts per
day; afoPfor FIVE days she gave forty
FIVE quarts per day; which is probably
without any parallel in this country.
From the cream only, they made four
teen and a half pounds Of butter per
week. Had they churned from the
milk. they would have got more butter.
The COW was MIXED three times day.
The only feed she got was grass in the
pasture. She is Of roam color, half
Durham and half native breed. and is
seven years old. She is finely formed,
and handsome animal. She was rais-
ed by Mr.. Johnston. who has eight
cows in hls pasture, all fine animals,
which il is a pleasure to look at.
Mr.. Johnston is Scotch farmer and
grazier Of great celebrity, and sells ma
Ny fat cattle for New York. He has a
farm Of three hundred and six acres. in
one compact body Of land, on the east
side OF Seneca Lake, about three miles
from Geneva, in fields from eight to
eighteen acres, all in the best condi-
tion. One field of eighteen acres of
Indian corn, last year yielded eighty
three bushels Of shelled corn per acre.
One field of eight acres yielded ninety
one bushels and forty-fve pounds of
corn per acre and field of wheat, of
sixteen acres, yielded forty-five bush
els per acre. MIR. Johnston drains his
land by underground draining, and
has some miles Of earthen pipes (made
at Waterloo which he has been lay
ing the last eight years. From the rich
feed in his pastures, the cattle are all
in the best condition. He. does not
feed tbe grass. down to the ground, as
the roots get scorched by the summer
drought, and frozen in winter. But
covering Of grass protects the roots
from both, and also keeps the cattle in
good condition. He has large barns,
and yards, and sheds for the cattle. In
the yards the cattle make large quanti-
ties of manure--from wheat straw. He
carts no mud from meadows into his
barn yard. He puts the manure on the
land in the fall, spreading and plough
ing it in at once, and not letting it re-
main for the sun and wind to dry up.
He observed to the writer that lie
never saw land too highly manured, but
he had seen much land too little man
ured. Land will always give return
for all that is put upon it. The best
proof Of this is, that in the last twenty
years he has brought his farm from
what was called worn-out land, to its
present superior condition, not by bor-
rowing capital, but solely from the pro-
ceeds of the farm itself, obtained by his
practical knowledge of good farming,
combined with industry and economy.

From The Columbus Enquirer.
Garden Maaures applied in Fall and
Uinfer.

Frequent complaints are made by
those who are limited in their garden
ing operations, that whatever manures
they do apply to their gardens, burn up
their crops when the heat of summer
comes on. We have felt this incon-
venience too, and in looking around
to find remedy, have come to the con-
clusion that whenever a garden requires
active stimulating manures, they should
be applied in the fall or winter; in this
way rank stable manure may be appli-
ed, and spaded or plowed under i'm
mediately. 1t will have become by
spring the proper food of plants, and
as all manures leach upwards, the sur
face soil will be in fine condition for
the growth Of vegetable; whereas if the
manure is applied at planting time, es-
pecially the crude manures generally
applied here, just as vegetables are
most required, they are fired by the
action Of the sun on the manure, and
the gardener has the modification to
lind his labor and money thrown away.
Whatever manutes are applied in the
spring. should be well rotted or of a
cooling nature. There are many fami-
hes that an nnually waste barrel or two
