TURNIPs.-It is surprising that the round
hst-commonly called nglish-turnips, SO
palatable and nutritiye, is so seldom found
on many of our farmers tables. 1t must be
that the farmer does not understand their
worth and the small cost Of raising them
and we recently heard farmer say they did
not cost him more than three cents per
bushel: and as a feed for stock, they are
fully equal TO potatoes, and from an acre you
can get eight hundred bushels of turnips, il
they do we'll, while the yield of potatoes
would not be more than one-half as much
The white turnip may be successful crop
after wheat has been cut, sowed among the
corn. as is adopted by some farmers, but i;
not favored by me, as it prevents the corr

SUMNER CARE OF YOUNG TREEs.-A writer
in the Germantown Telegraph makes the fol-
lowing suggestions on this subject Please
let me say one word for the young and tender
fruit trees. The season of transplanting has
passed, and many a man has paid out his
perhaps hard-earned money for trees which
he is in hopes in the future will either graft
fy bis own palate or members of his family
or perchance repay with interest the money
and labor be has expended on them. A
goodly share of the above described persons
will be disappointed in their expectations.
As the writer Of this has set hundreds of trees
extending through u period of more than
twenty-five years, and always with the best
success and almost no loss, be has perhaps On
this account more often noticed the failures
of others than he otherwise would. How
many there are that take pains TO buy and
set trees then, thinking their part done.

l. GIT NOOD FOR SUMNER A matter
seemingly triAing, but in reality essential to
domestic peace and comfort, Is providing
suitable material for the kitchen FIRE in sum
mer. What is needed is light wood that will
kindle and consume readily, burning just
long enough for cooking purposes, and not

Small sticks of pine, hemlock, white birch
and poplar are just the material, besides
those chips 50 handy for boiling the tea ket-
tie. Ii is too bad for the housewife to he
bothered and worried through the hot summer
days for want of kindlings and other material
for a ready and quick FIRE.
A little more torethought and pains taking
in this respect, by the men and boys, before
the busy days of field work, would help to
tighten home burdens and save some prema
ture wrinkles and gray hairs. These trihes
that are apt to be neglected IN the domestic
economy, sometimes prove in their results

and other plants are quite a. enduring as
anything of the kind we have tried. Eight
years ago we procured quantity of these
labels, and put them upon trees end hardy
shrubs, and although they have been exposed
to the weather ever since. still the names
written on them are quite legible. They
were applied with No. Is copper wire. which
lie still good and strong. The ink used was

into clubs for the purpose of mutual benefit

and are In measure isolated, these stated

Stops from the house, without any grain,
that were sold at an extra price on the first
of October, to 90 top off a car load of fat
pigs sent TO the New York market. And
the whole secret of the matter-if secret it is
was in feeding the young pigs literally
through the winter.
Few things would pay grain growing
farmer better than TO raise peas for his pigs.
No matter how " buggy the peas may be,
the bugs or beetles remain in the peas until
about the first of November and when the
peas are fed out before this time, the pigs
will eat peas and bugs together, and there
will be little loss. Nothing makes firmer or
better pork and lard than peas, and the ma
nure from pea fed pigs is exceedingly rich.
heavy crop of peas, too, is a capital crop
co precede winter wheat. They will smother
the weeds, and, if sown early, are off the
land in good season to allow thorough work
ing of the land before wheat sowing. If
other food is scarce, few of the peas may
be cut in June, as soon as the pods are formed
and Ted green to the pigs, and daily al
lowance may be fed until the peas are fully
ripe. In fact many farmers feed all their
peas to the pigs without threshing But
this is a wasteful plan. When the peas are
ripe, pigs will do much better on them
cooked, or at least soaked in water twenty
four hours before feeding. And, in addition
to this advantage, pea straw, when well
cured and carefully harvested, is nearly as
good for sheep as clover hay, and certainly
will much more than pay the expense of
threshing. A large farmer in Michigan who

tlOn z Does not reason tell US that jud dlclous
stimulation is required. To resort to violent
purgation In such q case Is as absurd as II would
be to bleed starving man. Yet it Is done every
day. Yes, this stupid and unphilOsophicai
practice Is continued In the teeth Of the great
fact that physical weakness, with all the ner-
yous disturbances that accompany It, is more
certainly and rapidly relieved by Hostetter's
Stomach BitterS than by any other med dicine at
present known. II is true that general debility
is often attended with torpidlty or irregular ity
of the bowels, and that this symptom must not
be overlooked. But while the discharge of the
waste matter Of the system is expedited or regu-
lated, its vigor must be recruited. The Btters do
both. They combine aperient and ambitious
properties, with extraordinary tonic power
Even while removing distractions from the
bowels, they tone and inVigorate those organs
