This town has been pretty well
written up of late The Town Fair, the
Crystal Wedding, the Musical Conven-
ton, and the hop at Larabee's Point, are
events of the past, and just now gem
eral quiet peryades the community.
Wednesday morning, Nov. 18th, the
ground was covered with several inches
Of snow, and on that day we had the
first sleighing of the season. Our farm
ers have been favored with good weather
to do their falls work and get ready for
winter. Those who have erected new
houses and buildings, who have torn
down their barns and built larger, who
have put on new roof or made other
necessary repairs, will have no occasion
to regret the expense, as winter ap-
proaches.
q We congratulate our enter
prising townsman, Mr.. /. t. Branch, on
the improvements he has recently made
upon his buildings. MIR. Branch is one
of the live men of Orwell. I'D

to the district. This district contains
more scholars, at present, than any
other in town, with one exception, and

FARM AND GARDEN.

VI. A. g. Allen writes to the .lgric"i'rriI:
"From long experience in growing It, can
assure your readers that rye, when properly
cultivated, is one Of the most valuable and
probably the most reliable of all our forage
crops. The reason OF its being the most re
liable IS ;hat il makes its growth III autumn
and spring, when the temperature Is congcn-
al. and there is almost invariably II sui
dcicncy of rain, which Is more than can be
laid for The summer crops.
Rye, on moderately dry soil, can be pas
lured by sheep and young cattle late in all-
umn and carly again IN spring without in
Jury to il when cultivated in the following
manner. Enrich the soil and prepare it as
il for wheat Sow early in September and
nut in The seed twice as thick as is usually
done by such preparation a quick rank
growth is insured, and the stalks being so
mach closer together on the ground they
crow up smaller, more tender, and more pal
atab!c 70 the animals consuming it.
Early in May rye begins to head, and it is
then fit for soi!ing. Later in the month, or
carly in June, when tullhcadcd, but before
The grain begins to form it can be cuttOr hay
After doing this, we dry it in the sun from
seven to ten hours, according to the heat
then bind 1t in shcavcS of about six inches in
diameter, shock them in the field for Il few
days until there is no danger OF heat, then
stack or store in the barn. 1t is very import
ant not to dry the rye too rapidly nor too
much, for in this case it loses Il good share of
It's fragrance, and becomes more difficult of
maatication and less palaablc to the animals
consuming it.
My horses and cattle seem to relish rye
thus grown and cured rs well as they do the
best oftimothy; and so far as | can Judge, /
think it does them as much good 10 average
hay, and should certainly prefer it to much
hay that is not cut until after the seed is
formed
It was very dry with us here in New Jer-
>cy this season from early in May until the
18TH of July, and pasturagc and hay COnse-
quently short; but the rye carried us through
admirably until the last Of July, when the
sweet corn was fully tasSeled and five to six
feet high. Thi. then took the place of rye
Tor the remainder of the season.
In the cool moist climate of Great Britain,
and on the continent, where irrigation is prac-
ljsed, rye or ray grass is much cultivated as a
forage crop, Our fall and spring rye may be
rs largely and as advantagcously grown
among Us for the same purpose as the above
two grasses Wheat also may be cultivated
tor forage and as it ripens later than rye it
would assist in prolOnging the soiing crop.
Its straw is more nutritious than that of rye,
and is equally palateablc

small Cows and Rich MILK.

In recent address before the Vermont
Daryman'S Association, Alexander Hyde
said AS Il general rule itmay be stated that
small cows give milk richer in cream than
that of larger cows. Thus the little Jersey
gives a more creamy milk than the large Dur.
ham-indced, the ordinary mix of Jersey is
about equal in this respect to much that is
sold in our cities rs pure cream Mr.. J. NJ.
Macllic, of Great Darlington, Mass. in whose
word we can place implicit confidence, says
that he has one Jersey whose milk is by aCtu-
al test thirty-yc per cent. cream, and that
from five quarts of Jersey milk he can make
one pound of butter. The small Kerry COW
is said to he equal to The Jersey in its cream
product and the still smaller Brittany coWct
for the kline of Brittany hardly deserve the
name of cows, as they are only thirtysiX to
forty inches in heights claimed to provide
milk richer in cream than that Of the Jersey
or Kerry On the other hand the large Dur.
ham are not remarkable either for quantity or
quality of their milk, though there are some
strains Of Durham blood that uniformly fuyn-
ish good mixers and the large Dutch cattle,
while giving an abundance Of milk are rath.
er famous as cheese than butter producers.
The AvrShircS, which are IA medium between
large ard small COWS, furnish also Il milk
which is fully up to the average Of both but
ter and cheese. In the latter constituent we
are inclined to think the Ayrshire milk j.
above the average. Perhaps we ought to say
here that the difference between Jersey and
AYRSHIRE milk is not so great intrinsically as
apparently. Jersey milk has good cmul.
sion, that is, the cream rises radidly and east
ly. In this respect it is like men of fluent
speech. They can tell all they know, and
sometimes pass for more knowledge than
they are worth. The cream of Ayrshire milk
is more slow in rising, and seldom rises per.
tcctly, 50 that if pan of Jersey skim milk is
compared with Ayrshire skim milk the form
cr is watery and nutritious, having parted
with its cream, while the latter is white and
valuable from the cream it contains. As the
virtue of milk, so far as muscle is concerned
is concentrated in the cascin, Ayrshire milk
is intrinficully fully equal to Jersey.

The experience of the season Just past has
convinced strawberry growers, at least those
IN the Northern States, that they must give
up the cultivation altogether or take meas
urcs to be Independent of the weather. An
other such season as the one Just closed would
bring disaster, if not ruin to hundreds who
have capital invested in strawberries and
other small fruits, rs we'll as in baskets and
other accessories for taking the crop to mar
kct The only way in which the strawberry
grower can be fairly sure of a crop one year
with another is to irrigatc. One of the lar
rest growers in the vicinity Of New York re-
Gently told Us that the amount that he lost by
)hi- years failure of the crop would more
lhan pay for permanent irrigating improve
ments. Like a wise man he goes at once to
work to provide supply Of water that will
render him, 50 far as that goes, quite indie
pendent of rains. This is what strawberry
culLiyaiOrs FAUST make up their minds to if
they expect anything like returns for their
labors. In spring like the last, water for
irrigation VIII decide the question between Il
profitable crop and total failure, and in or.
dinary seasons when there is so much rain
that the plant, do not really suffer from

many localities the preparations for irrigation

cases water must be pumped by windmills
