One WAY Of Improving band.

1t perhaps has occurred to but few
farmers to employ the rowing herds
of summer at manure-making, 1t
may be done thus -
Selects spot adjoining an outside
fence, and enclose it well on the
three remaining sides. Haul leaves
from the woods, muck from ponds
or swamps, or anything that will rot
into a good manure in ten or twelve
months, and spread over this lot
three or four inches deep. If there
are not several trees in this lot, make
shelters for shade by placing poles
upon forks, putting 4 floor Of rails
across these poles, and cover thickly
with pine tags. Enclose large pieces
of ground alum salt in boxes having
a hole in their tops large enough for
cattle to get their tongues in Conyen-
icutly. Place these boxes firmly up
on posts about over the lot. Make a
gap in the outside fence, that every
body's cattle that come along may
walk in. As soon as they find out
the salt, this lot will become a grand
c~ongregating place for all the cattle
OF the vicinity, a perfect camp-ground
of the bovine species. They will
make the shelters their resting place,
by day and by night, and will con-
tinuc to come so long as the supply
of salt (Which must be added occa-
siOnally), holds out. OF course they
will drop their manure here and by
winter you will have the satisfaction
of owning, at least, one lot hat has
been well MANFRED at small expense.
So long as cattle run at large we
think it right that somebody should
have the benefit Of the manure, if
they can get it,

Does it Pay to Pull Fodder (!

We think not, under our present
system of labor Under the old sys-
tenn the objections to it were not SO
weighty, Now the great object of
fine planter should be to economist
labor. Corn fodder is excellent for
age, but it costs too much labor, and
il pulled when in the best condition
Injuries the corn, as careful expert
mcnts have shown, to an extent equal
to the value of the fodder; so 1t does
not pay, But what shall we Substi-
tuto for it? We might say clover,
red-top, lucerne, etc, but all nave not
and cannot have, at once, their arti-
fetal meadows. In some portions of
the South it is an open question
whether these arc, as a rule practi-
cable.
l.. DRILLED C~oRN.--Plant on good,
well-manurod land, in drills three
feet apart, at the rate of two and a
half or three bushels to the acre; cut
when in tassel cure well and haul
into the barn, or stack carefully.
2, PEA-VINE HAY.-Sow the peas
broadcast, on heavily MANFRED land,
or in drills where the manure is def
cient cut when the peas begin to ri
pen, and cure without much expo
sure to the sun.
3. CRAB-GRAss HAY.-Every farm
er can have this in abundance.
ltyou cannot make up your mind
to abandon the old way all at once,
try both ways this season, Pull a
portion of your fodder, II you will
but make the other forage crops also,
to test their relative cost and value.

Feeding Colts.

You can force anything, overdo it,
and hurt it in consequence. So you
can oyer-fced a colt, fat him uncom-
fortably, and prevent that full, free
development which a generous, but
not immoderate, diet promotes.
Muscle is the main thing in grew
ing stock, particularly the colt. 9th
er things--the bones, nerves, &c.-are
important, but of secondary conse-
quence, as the food which forms the
muscle has the properties also of car
rying the rest. Young, green-cut
hay, cut when in blossom or Just be-
fore, is Of this character. Give a va
riety of this--timOthy, clover, orch
ard grass, &c, and there will be no
lack of a full, complete growth ar
rying all the points, laying on, also,
some tat, But much fat is a him
drance-is of no benefit to well-tend-
ed stock-young stoCk--which but
needs its growth and the proper
food to develop the frame, such as
we have indicated, is what's wanted.
This develops, enlarges, grows all
the parts without the weight to car
ry that which is unnecessary to the
growth. But give enough give all
the food that will be readily con-
sumed; do not attempt to gorge or
over-teed in any way. Sufficient is
the true word. This even implies
hunger-not sufIering--at least, not
seriously. There is needed, above
oil things, appetite. The animal
wants to relsih his food this to di-
gest it the better. Rather let there
be less food and good digestion. Let
there be clean work and regular
work, q sutficiency when given, and
given rather frequently than other
wise this will prevent gorging which
is not good. Three or four feeds in
a day is, perhaps, as good as any. If
more is given, less food at a time is
taken, and with less relish. Keep up
the appetite, and through it diges-
ton. Use judgment and treat kind
ly. Treat intelligently, and you will
encourage intelligence. Make ofyour
colt what you want of him, and
throughout if you do not get all,
you will get more than though you
had not attempted it. And be sure
and do not let him suffer during the
winter, thinking you will make it up
in the spring, for you will not what
is lost once Gin time and gfowth), is
lost beyond recovery. Keep your
colts growing in winter, as we'll as
during the summer. This will give
you all there is of him; otherwise
you will not get it. f. G.

TOads as a Protection from Bugs.

Fogts' celebrated book on "Noxious
and Beneticent Animals" has the fol-
lowing interesting paragraph:
GA remarkable fact has lately been
published in the newspapers. There
is actually a considerable commerce
in toads between France and Eng
land. A toad eff good size and in fair
condition will fetch a shilling Gwen
ty-iive cents in the London market,
and a dozen eff extra quality are worth
one pound sterling, S.. You may
see these imported toads in all the
market gardens where the soil is
moist, and the owners of those gar
dens even prepare shelter for them.
Many grave persons have shaken
their heads, when they heard of this
new whim Of the English but those
laugh the best who laugh the last.
This time the English are in the right.
| used to have in my garden a brown
toad as big as my fist. In the even
ing he would crawl out of his hiding
place and travel over a bed in the
garden. kept careful watch over
him but one day an unlucky woman
caught sight of him and killed him
with one blow of her spade, thinking
she had done a fine thing"

Concerning Babies and Feeding Bottles.

The London Chemist and Druggist
says: The latest lead-poisoning sem
%sation, for which certain Liverpool
chemists are responsible, reveals the
horrible fact that we are now train
ing our babies TO the use of this addi-
ton to their nutriment, bN feeding
them through tubes composed OF
India rubber dissolved in ten per
cent. Of biSulphide Of carbon and
thickened with white lead, resin, and
sometimes OXysulphuret of anthony,
from which, when it comes into con-
tact with the milk, s%uiphureted n.y.
drogen is evolved, and lactate oflead
formed in the stomach" The fact
that several millions Of infants have
not only survived this treatments,
but have to all appearances thriyed
on it, somewhat diminishes the hor-
rOr which we oughtto experience on
learning this report. But we remem-
Der, and now for the first time COM
prehend, the touching American
cpitaph in a graveyard a very long
way out West:
Grim death has taken darling little Jerry,
The son of Joseph and Syrena IIowels;
Seven days he wrestled with the dysentery,
And then he persisted with his little bowels.
Most likely it was weaving injured little Jcr-
ry,
His bottle seemed to hurt his stomach tone;
But with the angels he'll get plump and merry.
For there's no nursing-bottles where he's
gene"
The fact that some millions of in
fants have thrived on one form or
another Of feeding-bottles, is indeed
capable of aflording consolation, but
the comfort we derived from that re-
Election will be materially diminished
by calling to mind the many millions
who have persisted.

Milk Cows as Long as they Give Milk.

times spoiled by not milking them
before they calve.

never been sick q day, nor gargety

two months before her calving; MOI
does she have small calves. Ihave 6
four-year old cow, one Of her calves
that girths over six feet, and a steer
calf brought up on one-half of heI
milk, that will be one year old on the
