FalIOwlng and Manurlng.

WHEN garden vegetables have been Sc
cured for the winter, the soil they occu-
pied should bo manuIed and turned up
into rough ridges with the spade or the
digging fork. Exposure to the atmosphere
and the vicissitudes of the weather will
ameliorate the soil, and render soluble
those inorganic ingredients which are
known as plant food. When soil is fal-
lowed in the fall, it will be dry, mellow
and friable in the spring, ane consequent
ly In fine state of preparation for the
early crops. Fallowing is very destructive
to weeds, and if it possessed no other
property to recommend IL for adoption, its
effect in exterminat;ng weeds ought to be
sufficient to bring 1t into notice.
Manure for the coming season may be
prepared Row and applied to the soil at
every favorable opportunity. A mulch or
top dressing of rich compost will be very
beneficial to all fruit trees, bushes, vines
and canes. When manure is applied in
the fall or winter, the ingredients will be
rendered soluble by frequent freezings
and thawings, and the action Of the at.
mosphere in connection with frost, snow
and rain, and as soon as vegetation com
mences in spring, there will be an abun-
dance of plant food in immediste contact
with the roots. Composts tor the orchard
and garden may be made of substances
and liquids which are usually allowed to
go to waste, such as wood or Goa! ashes,
SCOT, dissolved bones, soap sllds and other
slops from the kitchen, etc. Seasoned
muck, saturated with liquid manure, is an
excellent fertilizer for the orchard or gar

correspond TO the height OF the stable, al
ways allowing a few additional feet, 70
rise above the roof IL may be protected

We cannot close this subject without
making what we conceive to be a valuable
suggestion, which, if fully carried out, will
be for the mutual advantage Of stablemen
and farmers. Our plan is, that each sta
ble-keeper shall supply himself with q
quantity Of powdered charcoal, a limited
portion of which is TO be sprinked every
morning over the dung heap. For q
stable averaging twenty horses, half q
barrel of charcoal daily would not be too
much; the more there is of IL the better
for the farmer, and, indeed, for the whole
human race. For then many OF the
diseases which have Of late attacked our
fruits and vegetables might be arrested,
and, perhaps, wholly prevented. Much OF
the fruit now brought to market is n direct
cause of diarrhma and dysentery IiH
BY this arrangement the farmer will be
the one most beHe6ted, and we venture to
say that any sensible man would be willing
to furnish the requisite quantity Of char
coal, provided he has the privilege of pur.
chasing the manure. lie certainly would
not object, when purchasing manure, tC
pay the additional cost of the charcoal, fol
IT surpasses all other substances in the
power which IL possesses of absorbing am

whose attention is being drawn TO It,
Among others who have had an opportu-
nifty of seeing II is Professor Baird, Of the

is yet unable to place 1t in the known list
of the animal kingdom. When first dis

and when pursued took to the land, and
when captured was a hundred and twenty

Farm aud anusehoIa.
Teams For the Farm.


TIE question h occasionally raised as
10 whether horses or oxen are the most
valuable, for farm labor, but, like the one
about Billy Patterson" II remains an
open one for the very good reason that u
admits OF no exact solution. For some
kinds Of work on the farm, horses may be
the best for others, oxen. In either case
much will depend on the fact whether or
not the animals are properly trained or
broken TO the work required. AS gen.
eral thing n span of horses will pillow over
more ground in a day than yoke of oxen
because they walk faster, yet occasional
exceptions 10 this occur. We remember
to have aided In turning over fallow OF
twenty five acresin which span of horses
and a yoke of oxen were employed. IL
was decided TO test their relative capacity
for the work both teams being allowed
their natural gait. Equal sections of land
were assigned 10 both teams, and the oxen
came out utinvariably a little leshead-gaining
time at each turning Of the corners. They
were then tried on the same lands for a
day, with no marked advantage on either
side. These oxen were broke to the work +;
held their heads well up and marched along
with steady, stately step. In this partic-
ular instance the oxen were better for
ploWlng than the horses, Tor the simple
reason that, performing equal work, they
cost less for keeping, and were more
readily prepared for labor.
Where the field of operations Is at any
considerable distance from the barn or
pasture, the horse would have the advsn-
tage in the celebrity of his movements in
reaching II, AS general thing, the sum
mer season through, horses can do more
work than oxen for this reason, If no
other, they can stand the heat better.
Both are important on a considerable farm,
and If the OK Is found to be worth the
most when age suspends labor, the horse
will have made up the difference by the
celerity Of his movements, and the more
diversified uses for which his labor has
been made available. Both are good in
their places, and no extensive farmer is
properly equipped for business who is des-
titute Of either-RurdL Neto Yorker.

Potatoes a Remedy for Bots.

LATE In the summer-the large horse,
or CAD fly, Is busy In laying its small, yel-
low egg on the hairs on the sides and legs
of horses, which, being glutinous, adhere
there. The horse, IN licking himself,
touches the eggs, which burst, when a
small worm escapes, which adheres to the
tongue and is carried with his food to the
stomach, where it clings to the coat of the
stomach, and feeds and grows there until
spring, when II passes out of the body and
soon becomes fly. Youatt and Spencer,
in their work on tho horse, claim that bots
do not injpre horse. and cannot be re-
moved from the stomach by medicine
they say the bots pass away in the spring,
For more than fifty years | have heard OF
horses, and have seen them, said to be sick
of bots, and TO die of them. Many with a
view To remove them, pour molasses and
milk down the throat of the horse, of which
il Is said the bots are fond so that they
are thus led TO let so their hold of the
stomach. This is soon followed by a pint
of tanners oil or somo other active ca
thartic, causing the horse 10 discharge the
bots,
When visiting a friend few month,
since, a worthy brother clergyman, he in
| formed me that horse having died of the
bots in his neighborhood, his stomach hay

them, some OF them " ere put In spirits o

never would work only to get money To

During this speech, Browns face passed

to the magistrate;

AnglewOrms, by Josh Billings.

ANGLEwORMs are of arth, arthy, and

ground; ground that won't raise angle
worms, won't raise ennything else, and
where angleworms rejoice, corn is sure to
be bully. If yu want your angleworms of
emmy size, you manure your sile. There
aint nothing on arth more miserable tew
ponder over and weep about than halt
starved angleworm. Angleworms are a
sure crop on good sile, and handy tew hoe,
for they plant and harvest themselves.
They don't take up much room in the
ground, and are ez kind to children ez a
piece of red tape.
1t Is sed by the naturalists that angle
worm lie, rubbed on the back of the neck
will kure man of the lies. don't beleave
this, unless it kills the man. Death is the
only reliable heal for lying that has been
discovered yet.
When lieing gifts into mans blood, the
only way to git it out is to drain him dry

How Good Farmers Save Money.

THEY take good papers and read them.
They keep accounts of farm operations.
They do not leave their Implements
scattered over the farm, exposed to rain,
snow and heat
They repair their tools and buildings at
the proper time, and do not suffer a sub
sequent three-fold expenditures of time
ard money.
They use their money judiciously, and
do not attend auction sales to purchase all
kinds Of trumpery because it is cheap
They see that their fences are well re-
paired, and their cattle are not found
grazing In the meadows, or grain fields, or
orchards.
They do not refuse to make expert
ments in small away of many new
things.
They plant fruit trees well, care for
them, and of course get good crops
They practice economy by giving their
stock good shelter during the winter, also
good food, taking out all that is unsound
halfrotten, or mouldy.
They do not keep tribes of cats and
snarling dogs around their premises, who
eat up more in month than they are
worth in life time.
Lastly, they read the advertisements
know what is going on, and frequently
save money by it.
Successful farming is made up by atten
ton to little things The farmer who does
it best earns his money with best apprecia
ton, and uses it with best results. Such
men are the "saltof the earth. "--EIchGage

How to Cook a Beersteak.

A BEEFsTEAK ought always to be broiled
to be the nicest but the following method
OF cooking is recommended by lady
writer on the subject, which even those
who are accustomed to frying may be
willing to try; "The frying-pan being
wiped very dry, place ii upon the stove,
and let II become hot Gerry hot. In the
meantime mangle the steak--if it chance
to be surloin, so much the better-pepper
and salt it, then lay it in the hot, dry pan,
which instantly cover rs tight as possible.
When the raw flesh touches the heated
pan, of course 1t seethes and adheres to it,
but in few seconds it becomes loosened
and juicy. Every half minute turn the
steak; but be careful to keep it as much
as possible under cover. When nearly
done lay small piece of butter upon it,
and If you want much gravy add a table
spoonful of strong, good coffee. In three
minutes from the time the steak first goes
into the pan it is ready for the table. This
method of cooking makes the most dell
cious, delicately broiled steak, full of juice,
yet retaining the healthy beefy flavor that
any John Bull could require The same
method may be applied to mutton chops,
only they require little longer cooking
to prevent them from being rare. An ex.
cellent gravy may be made for them by
adding little cream, thickened with a
pinch Of -four, into which, when off the
fire and partly cool, stir in the yolk Of an
egg, well beaten"

How to Keen Potatoes.

A PERSON who claims to be posted con.
cerning the proper treatment for potatoes.
says 1t is, perhaps, needless for us TO
caution our readers against having their
potatoes exposed to the light either out
doors or In the cellar. They win, if so
exposed, soon turn green, become soggy,
and almost unfit for use. They should,
if possible, be kept in dark, cool place,
away from all danger of frost in winter.
We think potatoes used to keep better in
times gone by in the old dark cellar than
now in the modern cellars, with their nu-
merous windows. Some are in the habit
of keeping their potatoes in pits in the
ground, dug deep enough to be safe from
the frosts. This may keep them well, but
it is a troublesome plan. We have known
them to be kept in the very best condition
in barrels and covered with sand" If the
barrels are not at hand they will keep in
good condition by simply piling in one
corner Of the cellar and covering with
dry sand
