The EYES OF HORSES AND CATTLE
In the Mao England Farmer, CORES,
pondent gives the following remedy, when
horses or cattle injure their eyes so as to
bring on white substance or film. He
says: Take fresh butter, newly churned,
melt about tablespoonful, and turn it
into the ear opposite the eye injured, be-
ing careful to hold the ear tight together,
so that they shall not, by violent shake
of the head, throw it out of the ear, This
remedy, he says, may be safely applied
if you do not use them when the film is
coming off

AGRICULTURAL.
STIRRING THE SOIL IN DRoUTH

STIRRING THE SOIL IN DROUTH
An old topic, surely, but one of the
greatest practical importance. An old
topic, but one about which men are not
agreed in opinion. There is theory and
practice on both sides Some farmers
bold that stirring the earth in dry wealth
er, Injuries the roots of plants, and exposes
the soil to the sun and the dry air Sc
much, as to do more harm than good.
But the Other side of the question has,
also, its good arguments. We will hint
at one or two;
Frequent stirring Of the soil in drouth
renders it more porous, and so fits it to
absorb moisture from the atmosphere, and
90 raw it ~ from the wet subsoil. By
h-.u5 frequently broken up it becomes
like a sponge. Any one can easily satisfy
himself ot this, Go into your garden and
loosen up the soil over space of few
feet square, and then see if, for several
mornings after, that patch is not moist,
while the surrounding surface is dry? a
noighbor of ours had potato patch last
Summer, which being in warm and sandy
soil became badly parched in July. The
stalks dropped, and a total loss of the
crop was threatened, Here was fair
subject for desperate experiment. Ac-
cordingly, on one of the hottest and dryest
days OF the month, he gave them
thorough blowing, passing the plow four
times through each furrow, frat plowing
two furrows from the hills, and then re-
turning the ground back by two other
ilrrows. No rain fell for ten days after.
In three days, the vines stood erect and
began to take on dark green color and
to grow again. The soil was moistened
by the dews of every night; the crop was
saved, and it proved quite an abundant
one.
Again: the stirring of the soil in drouth
renders the earth poorer conductor of
heat than it would be if it remained un-
broken and hard. Every one knows that
u stone Or any metallic substance lying in
the sun, becomes hotter than bunch of
cotton, because it is better conductor of
heat So, when the surface ofthe earth
becomes baked and hard, it absorbs heat
much more than when it is broken and
pulverized. In a well-tilled garden, the
ground, two or three inches below the
surface, is quite cool at mid, day. 1t is
partly ON the same principle, that few
inches of mulching material will keep the
ground cool and moist all Summer long.
Hence, it is easy to see that stirring soil
in drouth will keep the roots of the plants
cool and moist, and SO promote their
growth,
But let the theory be as it may, the fact
remains, that thorough tillage is the best
possible security against drouth,-Ame-
Tcan .Ig, iculturiSi.

\ Coon CREED ON PLowING.-A cor
respondent of the Country Gentleman,
says: " believe, Ist, that there are some
soils which should not be plowed deep,
such as the light sandy, the gravelly, the
peaty, etc, when quite porous and friable,
and resting on subsoil of the same char
actcr; I'd, that all clayey and loamy soils
may be deepened with advantage, prOvi-
dea it be done at the rate of an inch or SC
in year, and with the addition of twelve
to twenty loads of good manure, and pro-
Vt1ed there is no stagnant water near the
surface, or necessity for draining and
3D., that the safest and best way of pro,
ceeding, is to deepen only a little at a
time, as guide for future operations"

SHEEP WAsHING.-A correspondent of
the Ame'ican Agriculuris, gives the fol-
lowing plan A large vat made of plank
about ten feet long, four feet wide, and
three and half feet deep, is placed near
stream where there is sufficient fall.
Troughs are laid to conduct the water,
with their lower ends standing about two
feet above the vat, Two boys, each hold
ing sheep soaking at one end of the vat
while two men, standing on the ground
outside the vat, each hold sheep under
the stream running from the troughs. 1t
requires but little squeezing of the wool, E,
and much less time to wash them well than
by the old method.
