HINTS ABOUT WoRK.-Start the p5oa08
Che moment the ground is dry enough,
but not before and where it can be done,
harrow and sow as fast as you pillow. Do
not wait to finish the field. We know
there is some loss of time in changing
work co often, but it is nothing compared
with the extra time and .ab0r required
to prepare pIowed land that has been cx
posed to heavy rains, and then had 10 lie
for several days until it was dry enough
TO harrow. Our springs are SO short, and
che weather SO uncertain, that our rule
should be never TO leave the field until
al! the land that has been plowed is har-
rOwed and soWn
Sod Land can be plOwed after soak
ing rain earlier than fall plowed or stub
bles. And steel pillow will make clean
furrow slice where cast iron pillow will
clog. But it is doubtful whether it is or
is not advisable to avail ourselves of
these facts SD land is just as wet as
the stubble land, and If one would be in
jured by blowing it is not easy to under
stand why the sod land would not be in
jured also. 1t is one of those points,
however, On which we need more light.
Our own practice is based on the practc
al fact that We have q good deal of plow-
ing to do and little time TO DO it IN, rath-
or than on any theoretical considerations
as to what is the absolutely best condition
for the soil to be in when it is plowed
| A farmer must not be "Onc-idea" MN.
He has many things to take into consid-
Grafton, and has need Of Coca judgement
A safe rule is to avoid running to ex-
| tremes.

SULPHUR TO KILL vERM1N IN NESTS.

Now that the season has come for the rails
ing of chickens, it is well to know that the
powdered sulphur of the druggists is the
cheapest, handiest, and best thing yet discov-
cred for killing parasites that latest setting
hens. and find their way to fresh pastures
upon the chickens as soon as the latter are
Matched. Many times people complain that
when their chickens afe week or two old,
they droop and die from the attacks of large
lice, which literally cover the heads of the
birds. If examination is made earlier, it will
be found that the insects have taken up their
abode upon the chickens heads while still in
the nest, for they forsake the hen, preferring
the chickens It is bad business to have to
catch the chickens and hen for treatment af-
ter they have left the nest. when the remedy
can be applied with so little trouble before
Matching begins. week or 90 after the hen
has been given her clutch of eggs, sprinkle
them and the whole of the nest and the
straw for little distance around it, with the
sulphur when the hen is off. The night fol-
lowing attend to the hen herself, by lantern
light. Disturb her just enough to make her
briStle her feathers, and then dust sulphur
well down to their roots. Go over her whole |
body thoroughly, excepting the parts in con |
tact with the nest. and lift each wing and
scatter a pinch, and attend 20 head. neck,
and tail. It will not tnjure the hen in the
least, nor the chickens when they are hatch.
ed We repeat the operation at an interval
of week (though perhaps one application
is sufficiently, and have never found the
slightest trace of vermin on hen or chicks
afterwards. Use two small handouts. 1t
costs little either in money or trouble. To-
bacco, snuff, grease, carboIic powder, etc,
are not to be compared with sulphur for this
particular purpose, and the best dust-bath
privileges for tue hen are not to be relied
upon alone.

CARE OF ANEW MILKS cow.

fodder, a feed of sound roots, such as
carrots, turnips, beets or potatoes, ought
to be fed to each morning, before turn

CT such roots ought to be cut IF and
placed beyond their reach, or they may
DO much injury.
They should have pure water to drink
and access to salt daily; and when ex
peeled to cave should be placed loose
by themselves, in comforta BILE quarters,
where no animals can get to them or they
can get to others. They need freedom to
change their position at will, as this is
often necessary during the process They
should not be disturbed or any forcing

she has her liberty and sufficient time IS

Letter to the Rural New York

Letter TO the Rural New Yorker
Perhaps there is not better tract of land
in the wide world than Southeastern Iowa.
The soil is very rich and productive, and
very little waste land. Many farms, in fact,
nearly every farm, in the county would be
much improved by draining, especially in
wet seasons. AS the draining of lands has
only Just began here, it will be q paying
business to manufacture tile for many years.
Tiles sell here for nearly three times as much
as they are sold tor in Indiana and Ohio, and
labor md fuel is very little, if any, higher
here than there. Wood land is worth from
$50 TO $50 per acre.
This county is about one-half prairie and
the other half timber. 1t is one of the Oldest
settled counties in the State. 1t has about
25 600 inhabitants, nearly all of whom speak
the English language, and is well supplied
with churches and schools | hSXe lived

comes healthier. I believe Iowa to
be one of the healthiest of the
Western States. am over fifty
years old, but have never been confined 10
bed day at time since l can remember.
Stone coal is also plenty there are several
mines in this and adjoining counties Coal
is worth about t cents q bushel at the
mines and usually about fifteen to twenty
five ceuts at the different depots on the rail-
road. Good bearing orchards are plenty.
Apples are usually abundant, but peaches
are not very sure crpp here. G rist mills
saw mills, wooden factories, wagon and car
riage factories are plenty.

TH BUSTLE.

The Georgia Peoples Press has some
lines on seeing a lady with fashionable
protuberance. They have the true
spirit of Swift. The following is the
conclusion.
When nature first produced the fair,
'Mong other thins, it was her care
As fair the form in beauty grew
To shape the back both straight and
true;
Except. indeed. when in whim,
Some uncouth dwarf or monster gain,
She fayors with a swelling sack,
Perched high i'll honor on her back
But in these DAYS Of wondrous light
Taste rises in her power and might,
And disappearing natures plan,
She forms a bag of wool or bran,
And where she thinks hump should
be.
Straight in that place, hump yonll
see;
The names with which the humps
abound
Are full Of sense OF well as sound
Nothing more dignifed, I'm sure,
Than Bishop, Bustle, or Tourneurl
And some sour, old-tashioned dame
Should tartly ask, What's in name!
Wed answer, That cannot answer
But, ANA, the thing is full OF bran.
Now listen to me, lady dear.
\ word I'd whisper in Your ear;
Why be SO partiel to one spot
Why hump one place and Others not;
If in the hump such beauty lies,
As true friend, I'd YOU advise
TO raise the hump on every place,
And then you'd be Al over grace.
Then. if we beauties wish 10 find,
We need not always look behind
