HUsK BEDS.

Considering tho real worth of good
husk mattresses, the care with which
they IRE made and the expense attend
ing their manufacture, we have often
wondered that they we're not found in
every home and in every Sleeping
apartment. In the country their cost
is comparatively nothing, while for
real comfort they are second to none
but tho costly hair mattresses which
few care to procure. Having used
husk beds for several years, VIC can
haertily endorse tie following from the
Belfast Journal, merely promising
that we prefer the husks should first
be steamed and stripped to give the
greatest possible lightness and elastici.
ty:
There is nothing equal to corn husk
for under.bcds, yet few families have
them even, in the country where the
trouble and cost Of them are so small
They are always light and easy, and
last for long time. Though costing
At hrst about two or three times as
much As straw, they are vastly cheaper
in tho end, besides being great deal
better. Now is the time, and this ia
the way, to get them.
Az soon as the husks are taken from
tho oorn, before any mould or other
harm comes to them, take the fairest
and best leaves, free from all stalks,
silk, etc., and spread them out to dry
in some large airy room, stirring them
we'll every fair day for a month, or
till they are perfectly dry. AS they
shrink fifty per cent. in drying it will
take twice tie bulk of straw to make
good bed.
AS there is some wear out to them,
as to everything, cnce in half doz-
on years little new will want to be
added. In this way for a dollar-for
nothing if you have tbem-you may
get what is worth many dollars great
luxury that straw folks never know.
Don't split tho leaves ; they d. not be
come nat and solid as many suppose,

ADVANTAGES Or FALL PLOCGRs
Z fgeE7 lNG.
M .x-aov. uo1BRooK, OF VERMONT.

Without celebrating the many
strong points in favor Of fall plough
ing, q few of the prominaat benefits
may be briefly stated as follows: y
LIST. August and September is a good
time to turn over bound out scil land,
and manure and re SEED it at once to
grass, obtaining crop ct hay the
following year.
I'd. October and November is an OK.
cellent time to bronx up sod land for
planting the following spring.
Sd. The weather is then cool and
braoing, and the team strong aud
hearty for tho work while the wealth
or in the spring IS more relaxing and
the team less able; and the spring
work being slways harry'c s,ves
time to dispatch as much of the
ploughiug as possible during the pre-,
vious autumn.
4th' Sod land broken up early in au-
tumn will be quite free from growing
grass the following spring, the roots OF
the late overturned sod being so gcner-
ally killed by the immediate succeed.
log winter, that not much grass will
readily start in spring.
9th. The frosts of tho winter disinte-
crate the ploughed land, so that it
readily crumbles in ine PARTICLES IL
the spring, mellow seed bed is easily
made. The chemical changes and
notifications resulting from atmos-
pherio action during winter develop
latent fertility in the upturued fur
rows, which together with mellow.
iug influences, materially increases the
crop.
9th. Most kinds OF insects are either
wholly destroyed, or their depredations
are materially checked by late fall
ploughing. especially the GO nmon grub
and tho cut-worm
7th. Corn ssubble land may be
ploughed late in the fall, add thus be
ready for very early sowiog in the
spring, therefore going far to insure
good catch Of grass, the root, of the
new seeding getting hold we'll, Or being
we'll established before the drou.hs of
summer come on.
9Th. Most land In New England
needs deeper ploughing than has gen.
orally been practised When the sub
soil is Gne-grained, and nuctuous and
close or where there is hard paa of
good quality, then 'loughing may be
at once resorted to with decided ad-
vantage. Where the sab,oil is poor
er,. the ploughing may still be ad-
vantageously deepenel by degrees, say
an inch at each nes breaking up.
But in by far a majority Of cases,
deep ploughing may b. praotisel at
once indeed it may be the rule with
safety, while shallow ploughiug may
be the exception. Plough say nine,
ten. elevoo or twelve inches in Noyem-
Der. The subsoil turned up will
grow several shades darker by spring
The frost and atmospheric influence of
winter will mellow the soil. morgan.
ic elements and oil the latent fertil-
ity will be made more active for bene-
filing tho crop. In the spring
spread the manure, and plough it in,
or otherwise work it in or micgle it
With the soil to the depth say of four |
inches, or little more or less, and sou
have the very best attainable condi-
ton for realizing good crops. Deeper
ploughing may thus be practiccd than
would at all times be safe and expedi-
ent, If the ploughing is delayed till |
