Dr.. George B. Loring, President OF
the New England Agricultural Society,
in late address, stated that the soil
was so poor in New England that far
mers could not thrive except by hard
brain, us well as lHnd, work. AdvHn-
tage must be taken of scientific theo-
rtes and research, and the farmer must
be "A thinRer as well as a worker. he

accurately and carefully as the cotton
goes through the loom. He has man
aged his affairs with prudence, accura-
cy and care, and has made from his
farm of twenty acres two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars in forty years.
There Is no Illegal farming, no illegiti-
mate farming, no careless farming that
will thrive in New England.

THR Ward Brothers, who won the
boat race at Springfield last week, went
through a severe training for that con-
test. For several weeks they eat lean
mutton and beef, careful TO always
avoid fai; had no pepper, spices or any
condiments in their food, and only n
little salt; adjured vinegaEand all other
acids, as we'll as tobacco in every FORM
drank little water at their meals or aI
any other time, and no stronger liquors,
except occasionally a little Scotch ale
or claret; took exercise systematically,
with an especial reference to increasing
their muscular power and improving
their wind" and after every exercise
were persisiently rubbed down as a
well attended horse would be. This
discipline had attained such complete
results that the brothers were able to
row six miles with scarcely quicken
ing OF the pulse.

Commenting on the mania for fast
horses, the F'drUleI''S AdUcTtLSeI' coun-
sells its farming readers to turn their
attention to raising those THAT are OF
some use, large enough and strong
enough to do the work of the farm, and
fast enough to carry the produce 10
market or the family to church," This
is sensible advice, and seasOnable
withal, since the clearing up of the
country has rendered the use of oxen
less common and necessary than was
formerly the case. Serviceable horses
should be the main consideration with
farmers, unless they breed expressly
for other than farm purposes. 1t is not
ex xpected that fast horses or fast men
will become obsolete very soon, but 1t
should be the aim Of the mass of farm
ers 10 prevent the strong and useful
race of fhorses from becoming so.

DIR. Trimble, of n. j., who has paid
great attention to fruit culture, gives
the following as his views-the result
OF many years experiences;
/. That the most successful way to
conquer the curculio is TO gather the
fruit as it falls, and feed to stock or de-
stroy it, as it is by:this fallen fruit that
the curculio propagates its species.
2. That the fruit of the apple tree can
be protected from the apple tree moth,
by wrapping around each tree, two or
three times, IA rope made OF straw. The
moths will harbor in this rope and can
then be destroyed.
3. The only way to kill the peach
tree borer, is to cut him out with knife
not only once in q season, but TO follow
him up every two weeks until eSter.
minated. After the first going over
of an orchard, this will be little or no
trouble, as each tree can be attended
to in two minutes.

We are informed by gentleman
who mas given much attention to

dy is a safe and effective one. 1t is GER

The animal, if it did not effect a cure.
We give it the more readily because 1t
is a remedy always at hand, namely:

pure wafer us may be required
thoroughly to saturate the liquid, and
drsnch the patient with one-half of it.
If symptoms of relief are not noticed
in fifteen minutes or half an hour
give the remainder. He states that his
remedy has proved entirely successful
in very severe cases where other more
complicated medicines had fOiled.
There are two kinds of collie, fiatu-
lent collie, and spasmodic collie. In the

FARMER,s BUDGET.



Plaster, or gypsum, is composed of IS
parts of sulphuric acid, D parts lime,
and 81 parts of water, and furnishes
medium by which ammonia is convey
ed to plants. 1t is extensively dis
tribuIed over the eaTth's surface, and is
thought by Reologists to owe its exist
ence to the decomposition of the sui
phuret OF iron in contact with lime
stone, or the agency OF Sulphurous
Vapor upon the rocks. The precise ac-
ton of gypsum has not yet been deter
mined, but 1t doubtless unites in close
affinity, the atmosphere and vegetable
Kingdom, taking up the nitrogen and
ammonia and other substances from
the air, and the variety of salts and
acids held in solution by the rain and
snow, It, doubtless, also draws largely
from electricity and decaying vegetable
and animal matter. Many question
the action of plaster, from the
fact that, while wheat, rye and oats
require the largest amount of nitro
least effect upon these cereals,
while its results have been far more
appreciable, and its application more
frequent on crops requiring less nitro
genous matter. They forget that the
above mentioned cereals draw from
and flourish upon vegetable moulds 10
such an extent, as to need but little OF
the constituents OF gypsum. 1t is a
well established fact that, on all soils
where carbonate of lime abounds, the
further application of gypsum is with
out peroeptible advantage to the growth
of crops. Many scientists hold that the
principal stimulRnt afforded to plants
by gypsum is contained in its sulphur,
thai undoubtedly furnishes one of the
mineral elements essential to animal
and vegetable growth. This element
is not conveyed to plants through the
atmosphere, but they derive IT from the
soil, and animals derive 1t from plants
on when they feed. A soil which con-
taius ulphur in excess would not be
benefited by gypsum, while the aPPl-
cation Of lime would increase the fer
tiIIty.-THe FdTBt and Fire side.
