SMALL FARMS AND FRUIT.

a New York farmer makes the following
suggestion in regard to small farms: In
many cases where large farms are divided,
there is no orchard But the enterprising
beginner may do well by raising small
fruits while his orchard is growing. A
neighbor is making more out of the Doc
little raspberries, by selling fruits and
pIants-both grown on the same land
from a few acres, than most men make on
100 acres by common farming. These
and other small fruits may be grown be
tween the rows Of apple trees in a young
orchard. Tho grower of small fruits may
also do better by growing strawberries,
raspberries, and blackberries, so as to have
a succession all through the season thus
requiring less help at any one time, while
the business can be better managed and
controlled.

Carrot Culture.

By forcing the carrot. care not for
weeds. In 50 doing, the roots themselves
assist to keep the weeds down. A level
culture produces, especially in a dry sea-
son, the most carrots. 1 think the opera
tion of dressing several rows at once
would prove a failure, for with my culJiya-
tor can run within an inch Of the row,
and it would be impossible to cultivate as
closely with gang of cultivators without
doing injury to some of the carrots.
always use my horse and cultiVator the
first thing in tilling, having no throuble to
distinguish carrots from weeds. Here let
me mention that very deep culture is ne
cessary while the plant is small, for good
crop. choose long strip Of ground,
having the rows run the longer way to save
turning my horse on the carrots too much.
I use a horn for drill, for can SOW as fast
and as evenly as with drill, and am sure
all the row is sown. 1t is bess to manure
in the fall and thoroughly mix it with the
ground, for spring manuring produces
crooked carrots, which, however, are just
as good for stock. The carrot subject
ought to be looked into more by farmers,
for properly managed, no food is cheaper
in winter, and none IS more conducive to
insure health for stock. Cor. Country
