CULTIVATE THE CoRN.-Now is the
time to work the corn. A good yield can't
be obtained without good cultivation. 1t
is useless to talk about it. Do you want a
good crop-fifty, seventy-five or one hum
dred bushels per acre? IF so, work the
corn pillow it first deeply, then not quite
so deep, and finally finish with the, culti-
vator as shallow as possible. Keep out
the weeds. They rob the corn of moisture
and plant-fcod. 1t is not necessary i'm this
latitude to hoe carefully three times before
laying by as at the East, but all weeds
should be kept out by the hoe or pillow and
cultivator. The ground must be kept
moist and mellow if the corn would grow
luxuriant and give large ears.
We made a practice of seeding our corn
fields to rye when the corn is laid by the
last time. We do not see that it diminish
es the corn yield at all, and it makes
splendid pasturage for all kinds of stock in
winter. The green rye keeps stock
healthy, the bowels open, and the animals
in a thriving condition. Stock do not
require one-third the hay and corn or oats,
if they have access to a good field of rye in
winter In fact, they will keep in good
condition on the rye, unless it is covered
by snow or ice, when they would have to
be fed. i ..:.ir .. .-...... 3 -...
If used for corn land, by turning over
the green rye the following spring large
addition of fertilizing material is added to
the soil, and the succeeding corn crop will
avail itself of -it.-COlaaala's Rural World.

GIVE THE BOYs A PATCH.-One of the
surest methods of attaching boy to the
farm is to let him have something upon it
Tor his own. a Give him a small plot OF
ground to cultivate, allowing him the pro-
ceeds for his own use. Let him have his
steers to break or his sheep to care for.
me ownership of even a fruit tree, plant
ed, pruned and brought to bearing by his
own hands, will inspire him with an in
terest tnat no mere reward or wages can
give. In addition to the cultivation OF
taste for farm life which smell, a course will
cultivate, the practical knowledge gained
by the boy will be of the highest value.
Being interested, he viii be more observant,
and will thoroughly learn whatever is
necessary for his success. Another and
equally important advantage will be the
