WHY ORCHARDS DECAY.-A eorrespon-
dent of the VdLJey Farmer says orchards
have died or become poor from these caus-
es:
1. The exhaustion of the soil from the
constant crops of apples; from the blowing
away by the wind of the leaves of the tree
which nature designed to feed the soil on
which the tree stands; by the crops of
grass, grain or roots constantly taken from
the same ground and little return of sub
stance to it.
2. Another means of their destruction
has been in whipping the trees with poles
to remove the apples. And still another
cause was the pasterage among them.
3. To restore them; ifany were left worth
restoring, man must cease to crop the
ground under them, and must manure
them with vegetable mud, decayed leaves,
wood lime, ashes and salt. A compost
formed of these substances would be excel
lent, or one formed in part by soapsuds and
refuse slops, chip dirt, turf, etc., well rot
ted.
Then trim them of all dead limbs, and
those that cross and gall each other, and OF
all suckers that feed upon trunk or limbs
not necessary for a crop.

Agricultural Items.

The State of Main still ows 76S, 4S1 acres

| Mr. A. II. Chase, of Lowell, had peas in
his garden last week which were in bios
SON. and corn which was ten inches high.
In a paper read before the Central New
York Farmers Club, Mr.. Robert Gibson
said he would name the Globe mangel
wultzel as the best root for all purposes.
The Utica Herald gives list of las new
cheese factories to go into operation this
spring in the State of New York, and un-
derstands this is far from being complete
list.
In speaking of raising corn on "clay
lands" in Georgia, a correspondent of the
Southern Cultiudtor estimates the average
crop, including good and bad years, at ten
bushels an acre.
We learn by the Ashland Times that the
Nebraska Central Agricultural and Breed
ers Association, has been duly incorpora-
ted, with G. IL. Walker as President, and
G. w. Sheppard as Secretary.
A Michigan correspondent of the Rural
New Yorker has been feeding wheat to his
"shotesn with satisfactory result. He is
convinced that it is cheaper food for hogs
than corn at the present prices. lie boils
the wheat until it is thoroughly cooked,
which nearly doubles its bulk.
An English farmer says that l6 lbs. OF
guano are equal to one load of barnyard
manure. Use broadcast with plaster; III
hills, with loan.
Saw-dust pills, says an old physician,
would eflectually cure many of the diseases
with which mankind is afflicted, if every
patient would make his own sawdust
Animals require quantity as well as quail
ity of food. The philosophy of feeding
our farm stock has been but little attended
to by farmers; yet it is field of inquiry
that will pay richly for investigation as any
the farmer can pXOlOre.

pany has orders enough on hand to keep

Sleep and Habit.

Sleep is much modified by habit. Thus
an artilleryman often enjoys tranquil re-
pose while the cannon are laundering
around him; an engineer has been known
TO fall asleep within boiler, while his
companions were beating ii out on the in
side with their ponderous hammers and
the repose of a miller is nowise incommo-
ded by the noise of his mill. Sound ceases
to be a stimulus to- such men, and what
would have provedan inexpressible annoy
ance to others is by them altogether un-
needed. 1t is common for carriers to sleep
on horseback and coachmen on their
coaches. During the battle of the Nile
some boys were so exhausted that they fell
asleep on the deck OF the ship amid the
deafening thunder of that dreadful engage
ment. Nay, silence itself may become a
stimulus, while sound ceases TO be so.
Thus, n miller being very ill, his mill was
stopped that he might not be disturbed by
its noise; but this so far from inducing
sleep, prevented it altogether, and IL did
not take place until the mill was set agoing.
For the same reason the manager of some
vast iron works, who slept close to them,
amid the incessant din of hammers, FORCES,
and furnaces, would awake if there was
anycessation Of the noise during the night.
To carry the illustration still further, it has
been noticed that a person who falls asleep
near a church, the bell of which was ring
ing, may hear the sound during the whole
Of his slumber, and be nevertheless aroused
by its sudden cessation. Here the sleep
must have been imperfect, otherwise he
would have been insansible to the sound.
The noise of the bell was no stimulusl il
was its cessation which, by breaking the
monotOny, became so, and caused the
sleeper TO MdcRiSh.

A USEFUL TABLE.-To aid farmers in
arriving at accuracy in ascertaining the
amount of land in different field under
cultivation, the following table is given by
an agricultural cotemporary:
yards wide by 96S yards long contains
one acre.
yards wide by asa yards lang contains
one acre.
20 yards wide by 242 yards long contains
one acre.
40 yards wide by l21 yards long contains
one acre.
1850 yards wide by 9OI yards long contains
one acre.
300 feet wide by 1888 feet long contains
one acre.
10 feet wide by 800 feet long contains
one acre.
so feet wide by 72o feet long contains
one acre.

Net receipts. So DAG 81
j. b. LYMAN see that Stephen b. Con-
over is here, who has been Mr.. Leonard
market man for many years, and knows
how his farm is managed and its expenses.
We would like to know about his outlay
for manures and labor, and his net proceeds
on other years.
S. b. conversational Leonard usually
pays about 81, 900 year for his manures.
He keeps but few animals, and buys horse
stable-manure and street-scrapings from
New York. 1t costs him about 81 two
horse load by the time he gets it on the
land. He has found that any rank fertil-
izer wastes by being left on the top of the
ground, and he plows it in with shallow
furrow just as soon as it is spread. His
farm help consists of one man and two
boys besides himself. He is TO be counted
full hand at all times of the year. The
labor bill is not over that of three men
from April to October at $50, say $3.50. BY
subtracting this and 81 900 from the So, 600
given as gross proceeds, you get at his
profits. Last year his sales were over $l2,
600, yet his crops were bigger this year
than last.-Home Journal

EVERY man who can afford ii should
supply his boys with tools, and room
where they may be used and cared for.
A boy takes to tools as naturally as to green
apples, or surreptious and forbidd en-
amusements; and ten to one, if he has a
chance to develop his mechanical tastes
and crafty them to their full extent, his
tendencies to vicious courses will remain
undeyeloped. Such result is enough to
compensate for all the expenses and trouble
the indulgence we recommend would entail
while the chances that the early deve lop-
ment Of his constructive faculties may In
this mechanical age be the means by which
he may ultimately climb to fame and for

A New INDUsTRY-PACKING ROAST
BEEF.--Texas is essentially the bovine State,
and it's motto of lone star should be re-
placed by pair of long OK horns. There
are five million head of cattle in Texas,
and more coming every year, and beef in
all its forms is becoming the great staple of
the State. Several years ago, thousands
upon thousands of beeves were slaughter
ed for the hides, tallow and tongues. Then
jerking and smoking the beef followed.
Next we had refrigerated beef" then
condensed beef" and now, the Houston
papers come TO us with long descriptions
of a factory where the bullock is killed,
the meat roasted and then packed for ship
ment Here is what is said about the
oven where the roasting is done:
The oven will hold eight or ten steers at
Il time, and will roast twenty day. The
buildings are calculated for one hundred
beeves day, and space has been left for
four more ovens like the one constructed.
1t is intended to increase the business as
fast as a market can be created for the
meat. On the premises purchased there
are sites Just as convenient as this one,
for nine more establishments of the same
size, and the business will be increased as
fast as market can be found for the roast
beef, up to one thousand a day, or any
number that can be sold, up to that
amount.

FARM AND HOME.
Aiming for the Best Quality.

Bring good thing 10 market, and you
will be crowded with customers. You
will not only get more, but considerable
more, on anything.
Look at the grapes of the best varieties
fully grown and ripened, and see what an
advance they will bring. There is no glut
with such grapes. You cannot raise
with every product
If the market is dull, introduce supe-
rior article, and you give it activity. You
not only sell, (where Others fail to sell at
viz, but you sell at fair advance on the
nominal price. You can sell n superior
thing at G,nv ti.ae. And when the market
is buoyant, then ii is that you are king of
the board. 1t is then that the price is
advanced, and you get the benefit.
And it is a pleasure to sell a good thing,
whether fruit, beef grain, butter, cheese,
or whatever it may be. You not only go
to market with confidence, but you hold
your article while you have 1t on hand
with the same assured feeling. You feel
safe. You are safe. You take pride in
the thought that you have the article.
Is all this nothing? Then sell and it
will be something. 1t will line your peck
cts, and give you u reputation. We have
known things to be sold on reputation
alone
But you can raise good quality just as
well as a poor. You can raise just as much
of it,
Where do our best things come from :?
From our best producers, our most intelli-
gent, our most honored men. They see
how it is, and do accordingly.
1t is an inferior article that gluts the
market; good one never.
1t is safe then to aim at No it is prof
table it is reputable. Of A9ri-
culture.

LEATHER SCRAPs.-The Paris Cosmos
states that material which can be pressed
into the form of combs, buttons, knife
handles, etc, may be made from leather
scraps by cutting them into small pieces,
and keeping them for several days in chlo-
ride Of sulphur. In this way they become
hard and brittle. After being washed they
are dried, ground to powder, and mixed
with glue, or solution of gum arabic or
any other adhesive substance, when the
mixture is ready for the moulds.
