A German naturalist answers the
question how many eggs a hen can
lay, as follows: The ovary of hen
contains about six hundred embryo
eggs, Of which in the first year not
more than twenty are matured +; the
second year produces one hundred
and twenty; the third, thirty-fve;
the fourth, one hundred and fourteen !;
and in the following four years the
number decreases BY twenty yearly.
In the ninth year only ten eggs can
be expected; and thus it appears that
after the first four years hens cease to
be profitable as layers.

FARMERS COLUMN
SPRING WHEAT CULTURE.

There are parts OF the country, pIAAI1-
pally confined to the great corn-growlng
belt where the culture of Winter whe eat
in consequence of the loss from freezing
and other casualties has been discontin-
ned. In these districts the principal de-
pendence is necessarily upon the Spring
varieties, and where care is taken in the
selection of seed, ana in the preparation
fsr the crop with early seeding quality
Of Spring wheat is produced that will
WELD -four Of very high grade, and that
is actually richer in the essentials Of
bread food than Winter wheat. But
whenever Winter varieties can be grown
to advantage they are found to be more
satisfactory, owing to their better yield,
earlier, ripening, and superior average
quality.
While the superior merit in regard to
quality is possessed by Winter wheat, it
is useless to advocate its culture in places
for which from climate or other causes it
is unsuited. Therefore in many cases the
farmers, having no option on the subject
are compelled to use the Spring varieties
and few directions on their culture may
be seasonable and acceptable to our resd
crs.
Land that has had good cultivation, and
is therefore free from weeds and foul stuff
is If course the best. Too much barn
yard manure is injurious, causing an over
growth Of straw, which, especially in
moist seasons, is liable to rust, lodge, etc
vet the application of well-rotted manure
will be beneficial if plowed under in the
Fall, so that the crop may be sown as ear
II in the Spring as the FIRST leaves the
ground, and it is in condition to work,
Tng seed too mu1t be put uniformly, and
the surface soil well pulverized and roll
cd.
No doubt in many localities the scarcity
Of seed will materially interfere with the
extended breadth Of wheat which would
otherwise be sown. From this cause, per
haps, much poor seed will be used, there
By entailing great loss on the farmer, for
without good seed we cannot expect good
crops. There are many varieties of Spring
wheat some of which fall in one local..
ty, but are found to give the best results
in another therefore, if particular va
rety is by experiment found to be adapt
Cd to the soil and situation, it should be
retained until by other cautious expert
ments the new variety is found to be sue
cessfu} The country suffers to the
amount of millions of dollars from the in
discriminate sowing of varieties moi we'll
9dapted to the locality. Every farmer
should try 10 raise enough wheat for his
own use at least, but it would be unwlse
to rush into wheat raising too extensively,
because the crop happens at present to be
higher than many of the other staples
The true maxims of the farmer should be
diversified culture, rotation of crops, and
better cultivation of the land more
grass, and more rest for the soil ; more
and better stock, and which follows, moro
manure. In this way good results may
be secured in the sproduction of wheat
so common in the past.

PLANTING TIMBER.

DR.. John 4 Warder at the Ohio Agri-
cultural Convention, offered fv3 resolu
tiong, the gist Of which are contained be
low:
The first recommends farmers to plant
their bill-sides, ravlnes, and broken lands
with timber; the second advises that at
least one-tenth Of every farm be devoted
to groves and shetter.belts; the third
urges the Legislature to encourage, by
suitable enactments, the planting of arti.
fetal forests and the setting of useful and
ornamental trees along highways anG
railroads the fourth asks local and other
societies to aid in this matter by the offer
of suitable premiums and the fifth urges
the propriety Of the mana gers Of the Az.
ricutural colleges giving especial atten-
tion, as far as may be practicable, to the
planting of an aboretum for the produc.
ton of every tree that can be grown on
the college farm, to be so devised that
each kind may develop its native charac-
tcr,and also to the planting of On artificial
forest Of useful trees SO arranged that i.
may afford the most valuable instruction
to those in attendance and to visitors"
CULTIvATING THIsTLEs-A correspon-
dent Of the London Times states that in
New Zealand an important use is found
for the Scotch thistle, in farm economy.
1t spreads over the rough fern hills, takes
full possession of the ground, is partly
eaten by domestic animals, and in the
mean time nursed and protected growth
Of clover and grass, which spring up and
take its place, the long tap-roots Of the
thistle having opened and pulverized the
soil and fitted it for growth of the grasses.
