spicuous testimonies Of tho cordial relations Of the

duICdh!c understanding.

How ! Plant Corn.

As early in May as the ground becomes
usually an old pasture, in which the better
grasses have run out, running the pillow about
seven inches in depth and looping the burrows,
so that the inverted sod may be more nhu-
enced by the sun and rain. A Shares harrow
is put on, following the course Of burrows,
after which it may be cross-harrowed with q
fine toothed implement, without fear of tearing
up the sod The field is then marked both
ways, with wooden teeth placed at proper dis
tances in a scantling, 50 that the mark may
be plainly seen When ready for planting
(which defer until the ground become,
warm, | have provided as many barrels Of
double refined poudrette as | have acres Of
ground, and drop a small handful where
want each hill The corn is dropped immedi
ately in contact with the poudrette and
covered to a proper depth, from one to one
and half inches. When the corn comes up,
instead of retaining its spiral FORM when not
more than an inch high its leaves spread out
and assume a dark green color and grow
right along, and, with proper cultivation for
the rest of the season, it is ready to put in
shock in August My notion is, that corn
requires something to give it vigorous start,
After its leaves attain considerable size, and
the roots begin to reach the turf below it.
then it has means at its command to mature
a fair crop Getting the right kind of start
is the main thing to insure a good crop Of
corn.--C. +. SO'cle, IN Country Gentleman

Summer Feed for Cows.

The following statement was made at the
last meeting of the Passumpsic Farmers
Club;
George Galbraith, the pioneer in this county
for soiling or summer feeding his dairy,
being present was requested to give his ex-
perience in feeding his COWS in summer. He
had two objects in view in Summer feeding
manure and greater profits from his cows.
BY stabling his cows nights and putting a
liberal supply of dry muck behind them, he
could make mere and better manure than in
winter. Cows that are in pasture days make
much more urine than in winter, which being
absorbed by the dry muck makes the best OF
stable manure. He uses green clover in pre-
ference to anything else for summer feeding.
Begins to feed as soon as the pastures begin
TO fail or the milk decrease. Ne uses from
three to five acres Of clover for twelve or
fifteen cows, cutting twice and often three
times. He sows western clover about ten or
twelve pounds TO the acre, with eight quarts Of
herdsgrass. If clover fails he feeds green
corn and sometimes green oats. But the
clover is by far the most profitable, making
more cream from the same amount of milk,
and more butter from an equal amount Of
cream. His pastures are old, being some Of
the first land cleared in Barnet. lie finds
that his COWS need bone meal to make them
healthy and profitable for milk When he
began dairying some twenty years ago, he
found very soon after his cows went to pasture
in the spring, they began to search for bones
and to chew pieces Of wood, were not quiet
when not feeding, gave but little milk, not
averaging one hundred pounds to a COW in a
year. He had read about giving bone meal
to cows, and he and neghbor who had the
same trouble with his cows bought some bone
meal and fed to them, and they very soon
stopped chewing bones and wood, and renewed
their milk and flesh with the same feed
When he happened to get out of the bon'
meal he found that his cream churned hare
and refused to become butter, but as soon al
he used the bone meal again he had no diff
Guilty in churning. He feeds one-ihird corr
meal and two-thirds shorts, or one-half corr
and oats, and one-haf shorts. He feeds bu
little meal while the COWS are dry. BY biz
present system he has averaged two hundred
pounds OF butter to the COW for the last ter
years.
