both of which have Democratic Governors.
That in Massachusetts, an overwhelmingly

Hints for the Season.

Carrot, turnip apd beet tops are rarely ol
much value for feeding purposes. They de-
cay so rapidly that very iuconsidcrablc ad'
vantages result from saving them. The bet.
ter way, perhaps, is to apply them in com.
post. When thrown into close and compac.
heaps, with quicklime, wood ashes, salt, for
est scrapings, muck, pond mud and mould,
and covered with mixture of gypsum, il
decomposes rapidly, and soon becomes rc-
solved into iino substance admirably adapt
cd to act rs alimcnt to most crops. There
arc also many vegetable matters which may
be turned to valuable account in this way,
that are of no practical use for any other
purpose.
To preserve cabbagcs throughout tho win
ter season. they must be set in the soil, just
dirt enough being thrown around them to
cover the roots. Other vegetables, such as
beets, carrots, parSnips, vegetable oysters,
etc., may be preserved in boxes filed with
soil. Onions require dry and cool place,
but not exposed to frost. Pumpkins and
squashes may be well preserved in any place
tolerably dry and warm. Dried pumpkins,
sQuashcs and apples should have dry place,
as should all other dried fruits.-COr. Ger.

What to do with q Green Back"

There is, Just now, way OF using one Of
Uncle Samuel's paper dollars, so as to get
back the worth OF many gold dollars in a
single year. Everybody has heard of Seth
Boydcn's wonderful new strawberry. From
all accounts it is marvellous thing-thc
berries nearly as large as hens eggs, and rs
good as they arc large. Dealers were after
it, Offering as high as $4,000 for the plants,

unacquaintcd with it, we would say that the
Agriculturisr is large Journal, of 80 pages
in every number, is beautifully got up, and

the Troy and Greenfield Railroad Company
established flag station at North Williams
town, and installed n worthy native Of the
Green Isle rs depot master. Pat was duly
instructed IN tho duties of his Office, and,
among other things, that whenever there
were any passengers to bo taken up, u red
flag should be displayed. The next morning
tho red Gag was waving. OF course, tho
train brought up.
"Whcrc arc your passengers, Pat?" sang
out tho conductor.
"Surc, then, there arc mono at all"
"What tho deuce did you put up your

"An' sure, how did l know but some ono

The conductor didn't stop to have his

FEEDING lIOGs.-A correspondent of the
Boston Cultiyator, who insists that the food
for hogs should always be cooked, and fed to
them warm and in warm place in cold
weather, gives the following statement of his
manner OF preparing the daily food, and the
cost thereof, for his swine, his business being
chiefly to raise pigs and shotes for sale:
"Takc six pounds Of beef scraps, at cost
of nine cents, and boil in two pals of wa
tor; scald in two quarts of corn cob meal at
acost Of three cents; add six pals OF water,
and you have good swil enough to feed six
store hogs and eight small shotcs once, at u
cost OF twcnty-four cents. This done twice
in each day is sufficient to keep breeding sows
or store pigs in good condition. This is the
exact quantity am feeding to the number
of hogs mentioned slaughtered two fat
hogs last fall, fed in this way until the time
to iatten them arrived, after which they had
their usual feed thickcncd to dough with
corn and cob meal only, and at the age of
sixteen months the two weighed over one
thousand pounds"

FEEp FOR FARM HoRsEs.-Saysa writer in
the Agriculturist, when was boy in the
north of Vermont, we use to feed dry hay
and oats, unless the horses had the hcayes,
which was very common among thum at
that time, owing to feeding too much dry
hay and oats, and driving them too fast
when full. Wc then supposed that they
ought to have hay before them all the time.
This is false idea; all kinds OF animals
will do better on regular meals. Farmers
usually feed too much dry hay. You may
keep horsc eating all the time and not
have il thrive.

A correspondent of tho N. E, Farmer
writes that hc has used q very simple remedy
for keeping crows from corn, and that it has
always proved effectual. He takes onc-half
pint Of tar to tho aero, and puts it on rocks
or stones throughout tho piece. Lilo adds:
I have not had hill pulled by the crows
for three years past, during which have
used the tar. AS to its benefit as fertilizer

effect. II putting coal tar on seed corn
