CORNSTALKS AS FODDER

Levi Bartlett, writing on this subject in
the Concord On. H Statesman, saws
Corn grown in hills, three feet by two,
for fodder, is much more nutritious than
when grown thickly in drills or broadcast.
as is usually the case. Some of the early
varieties of sweet corn are more valuable
for cattle than the large, late Southern, or
even our common kind of corn. The
sweet corn contains a much larger per
centage of saccharine matter than the two
kinds above mentioned, and consequently
has more of the butter-forming cOnstitu-

RUST IN WHEAT.

A correspondent Of the Southern CuL-
tiV0tOr imputes rust to excessive moisture
in the soil, as he has never known it to
occur on wheat on side hills or on that
grown on clay land well underdrained. 1t
is. observed that wheat, bordered by a
forest on the south side of a field, and
thus measurably excluded from the rays
of the sun, shows strip of rusted wheat,
while that on the north side of the same
field is exempt from it.

MANURING Grass LAND.

The Anaericdn Agriculturi8t has the
following suggestions on this subject: No
doubt hot, reeking manure in which am
monia is formed and escaping, loses a
good deal of its value in being spread up
on meadow, and exposed to the sun and
winds. But that which is not in this con-
dition loses very little, and one overhaul
ing and mixing with muck or earth will
effectually prevent loss. Fine compost of
this kind, with little bone dust and
ashes, is the very best dressing moving
lands can have, and it should be applied
freely as soon as the grass is cut. A half
rainy day is just the time; then, especial
ly if it tains hard after it is spread, the
grass gets the most benefit, and the quick
start it will make, ana the rapidity with
which it will cover the manure out of
sight, will please every one.

TO PREVENT cows FROM KICK
INC.

S. A. Austin sends the following to the
Ohio Farmer:
Take strap of sufficient length to go
around the COW, with buckle on one
end pass it over the cows back, behind
the hip bones, and bring it under her belly
just forward of the bag, and buckle it up
tight and then a man may sit down and
milk at his leisure and need have no fears
of being kicked over.
If the strap is made as tight as it should
be, the COW cannot raise her foot three
inches from the floor.
l have followed this plan for several
years, and have never been kicked over
when have used it. l also use the same
plan in breaking my heifers, and have
found it to be of great service in saving
of time and patience, and never fail of
having gentle COWS of them in a short
