Sowing Corn for Green Fodder.

Corn for green fodder should be sown,
not broadcast, but thickly in rows three
feet apart, so that it may be readily
"tended " by horse power At this width
the cultlvator will pass through the rows
without danger, and if the seed is thick in
the drills, (not less than twenty-five ker.
nels to the toot,) it will, on rich land,
form SO bushy growth as to nearly Occu-
py the whole space. The sowings may be
continued, Vt intervals, until nearly or
quite the first of August. The rows being
marked out, by chaining, or with the
plow, the corn may be sown quite rapidly
by hand, and covered with the feet, as
recommended by Peter Henderson in his
Gardening for PrOft," and then well
rolled down. Or, which is much better,
it may be put in with wheat drill by
taking out all but the middle and two.end
teeth, and stopping the discharge from
the hopper except over these. This will
bring the rows NJ about the proper dis.
tance apart, and the quantity of seed may
be easily regulated SO as to give the reQui.
site thickness in the drill. Corn sown in
this way needs no additional covering be.
yond what u roller will give it. Should il
not be needed for feeding in its green
state, it may be bound in small bundles,
and cured in long shocks made around a
rail supported by crotches or stakes.
When cured, it forms nutritious fodder.

Experiments In Destroying the Peach
Worm.

THERE is handy means for the de-
struclion Of this heretofore fatal enemy to
the peach tree, which is practical here
and which has proved certain, beyond
peradyenture. Ii is simple, of easy sp-
plicstion, and expeditions. 1t consists Of
the use of b0lliHg ioater applied to the collar
Of the tree, in quantities varying accord.
ing to the age of the tree-in small trees,
say one inch in diameter, half pint is
sufficient and pin: is enough for larger
ones. Remove the earth from around the
tree few inches in depth, and just pour
the water boiling hot on the exposed
roots, and il will kill every egg as well as
worm with positive certainty. II has
been tried here time and again. upon trees
that have been more than half killed, and

a perfect restoration has been the result in
every case. No danger need be appre.
hended from the effects Of the hot water
upon the trees, unless large quantity is
applied to very small tree. When a
large number of trees have to be operated
upon, a fire should be made in the orchard
for heating the water, so that IL can be sp-
piled boiling hot. Considering the i'm
portsnce of this remedy to peach growers
who may not have heard Of it, deem it
but common justice to give IL circulation
through the columns of your paper. It's
certainty as remedy may be implicitly
relied upon.-Country Gent.

--Thirtythree years ago an old woman
named Lister disappeared very mysteri-
ously from Stockton.on-rces, England,
and some months a0Cr ward her dead body
was discovered in hedge. Her only son,
who bore bad character, was suspected
of having murdered his mother, the sus
picion arising mainly from the circum
stance that on the morning before her
disappearance the old woman said her son
was pursuing her to murder her and to
rob her Of two pounds At the Coroner's
inquest an open verdict was returned, the
jury inclining to the opinion that the de-
ceased bad committed suicide, from the
fact that q razor was found lying beside
the body. The son died y few days ago

tessed ON his death.hed that thirty, three
years ago he murdered his mother.

in week are saved, placed in wheel,

plan induces all passengers TO buy tickets,
and thus diminishes the opportunities for
stealing on the part of conductors.

Young Man, Stay Ia the Country.

As LEGITIMATE business and the great
speculative movements of the commercial
world decline, the rush of young men to
the cities in search of employment, or to
take advantage of the chances of trade on
their own account, is greater than it has
been for years We are tod by mer-
chants that their stores and offices are
every day invaded by dozens of these in
search of situations where they may frit
ter away a few years of their lives under
the mistaken notion that the city is the
only place to win position and wealth
and that their pleadings to be employed, or
to be told where employment is possible,
are pitiful to hear
Young man, if you are earning your
bread in the country, stay where you are.
If you are earning nothing, be sure you
will do worse in the city. At any time
the change from rural to metropolitan life
is dangerous; at this time, when hundreds
and thousands of young men are being
thrown out of their places, because there
is neither work nor wages, to make the
change is to invite temptation that all
young men should avoid. The city is full
of the unemployed now. In the country
the harvest is just coming, for which there
is lack of muscle; and at all times there
are millions of acres of land open to the
occupation and industry of those who
would be independent of the dangers and
temptations of city life Chicago Post.
