HERE is story of Yankee invcn-

wanted to extend a pipe through an
under drain several feet below the
surface, but how to get the pipe
through without taking up the drain
was the difficulty to be surmounted.
After studying upon it for while,
Mr.. Geer hit upon this admirable
plan. He opened the lower end Of
the drain, caught cat and attached
a small line to her leg, then thrust
her into the upper end and gave q
most unearthly ;" scat" and pussy

as her legs could carry her. The pipe
was drawn through the drain by
means Of the line. and Mr.. had Geer

FALL FLOWING.

At 4 recent meeting of the Farm
ers' Club of ST. Louis, the subject Of
Fall blowing was discussed. The
opinion generally expressed was ia
vorablo to Fall blowing for Spring
crops. Col. Colman, said there were
several reasons in favor of blowing
certain kinds of land in the Fall as a
preparation for Spring crops. Il the
land is claycy, it is better to pillow
quite late in the Fall to prevent It's
being beaten down by the autumnal
rains. If the ground is coated with
weeds it is best to turn them under in
green state, as the gases escaping
from them, during the process of de-
composition, exercise an ameliorating
influence on the soil. A crop OF
weeds plowed under approximate
pretty closely in value to clover for
the same purpose. Besides, in the
Fall, farmers have more leisure time
70 pillow than in the Spring, and the
ground IS usually in better condition
tor the operation. On clayey land,
eurned over in the Fall, the frost acts
beneficially by pulverizng it, and in
creasing its productive power. Rain
and snow also enrich it to a certain
extent. Raw clay, turned up in the
Spring, becomes stickey, and often
bakes into a compact mass-hard to
sunder and commute sufficiently to
promote crop growth.
Another member would pillow in
the Fall because the weeds turned
under make manure-the seeds of
weeds terminate and are rendered |
harmless in the Spring. Besides, by |
late Fall blowing, if deeply done, the
soil lies loosely, each turrow making
q drain for the passing off of surplus
water, rendering the ground ready
