FArrENISG CALvFs.-A sensible practical
farmer told US the other day that he had of
ten noticed that calves would thrive better
on milk that was not rich in butter, than on
what was commonly called very rich milk.
That is fact in accordance with what we re-
Gently stated, that the nutritive element of
milk resides chiefly in the caseine. If you
have COW that gives particularly rich milz
and one that gives a quality poorer in butter.
it is better in every way to feed the calf on
the milk Of the latter. The calf will thrive
better and you'll get more butter from the
milk of the first cow.-Mass Pl0ugltnan

two feet long, are bent over the hill of young

earth. This constitutes the whole contrivance,
and affords complete protection from all in

thus protected have grown twice as fast as
those fully exposed. Another advantage Of
this mode is the protection it affords from night

which have been early removed from the hot
bed. Lastly and not least, is its cheapness

SUGGESTIONS ON DRAINING.-ln the discus
sion before the VI issachussetts State Board of
Agriculture, Judge French said that it was
not necessary to drain land where stagnant
water stood more than four feet from the
surface, int where water stood within two
and half feet of the surface the land was
benefited by drainage. a soil filled with
water, he said, could not be heated downward,
and experiments had shown that ice would
remain unmelted in the bottom of vessel
filled with water boiling by the application
of heat to the surface. Underdrained soils
were heated by the warm rains sinking into
them. He would not build drains OF stones,
even it supply We're found on the farm, if
he could get tiles at fifteen to twenty dollars
per thousand, for excavations for stone drains
would require greater labor, and they were
liable to fill with mud or silt in soft lands
lie would lay drains at least four feet deep,
in order to secure their full benefit in heavy
rains and place them beyond the reach Of
subsoil ploughs, moles and roots.
In order to prevent distractions drains
should have continuous fall, which coul6 be
secured by stretching line and measuring
the depth of each tile from it.

LIEUTENANT Governor Stanton, Of Ohio,
says in regard to sheep raising in England
One thing that struck M very iorcibly
was, that all farmers testified that sheep
raising was absolutely indispensable to sue
cessful farming that their manure was
necessary to preserve the fertility of the soil :;
and that without them the whole kingdom
would, in few years, be reduced to barren
ness and sterility. Ii is in this view that |
regard sheep raising in this country as more
important to the ultimate and permanent
prosperity of the country, than on account of
the profits. Whatever else may happen, we
cannot permit the virgin soil and these beau
tful fields of ours to be reduced to barrenness
by the time they pass into the hands of our
children and grand children. ] heir fertility
must be preserved at all hazards, even al the
expense of present profits

it when moving in seach of food.
Mixed in tbs proportion of one bushel of
salt to two bushels of lime, it is an excellent
manure for potatoes, dug into the soil at
planting time. Twenty bushels of lime and
ten of salt would be enough for an acre, sowr

Salt. applied in the spring at the rate OF
twenty bushels per acre, has been found very
beneficial to asparagus, broad beans, lettuce,

The following timely advice of the Roch-
ester Post, should be acted upon without
delay by every farmer in Minnesota who
has been sowing the same seed on the same
ground for any length of time:
CoAMENDABLE ENTERPRIsE.-We pub
lished last week, the announcement Of a
Farmers Association, organized at Kali
mar, in this county, for the purpose of
sending to Canada for new varieties of
wheat. We do not believe there is any
organization existing of more importance
than this. The necessity of q change in
the seed wheat of this region is too appa-
rent to need any argument, and any iarm-
or who fails to avail himself of this oppor-
tunity, or in some way to follow the exam
pie set by those Kalmar farmers, will have
only himself to blame if, in the next har.
vest he reaps the inevitably result Of per-
sistency in system so ruinous as that of
sowing the same grain for seriee ofyears.
1t is painfully certain that the farmers of
Minnesota must not only change the seed
of their wheat, but that rotation of
crops and fertilizing of their lands must be
resorted to. The time for shiftless farm
ing has gone by, and hereafter it will be
only the good farmers who can make farm
ing profitable.
