HAVE a SCRAP BooK.-Every
Farmer should have a scrap book, in
which to paste agricultural scraps.
Every Que, in reading paper, willsee
a number Of things which he will wish
to remember. He will perhaps see
suggestions, the value Of which he
will desire to test, or hints which he
will want to be governed by in future
operations. Aud yet, after reading
the paper he will throw it down and
probably never see it again. In such
case all the valuable articles will be
lost. 10 prevent such a loss, every
reader should clip from the papers
such articles as he desires to preserve
and remember and paste them in a
srcap book. Such a book, at the end
of l year or two, would be very in
terestins and valuable.

WEAR OF FARM EMPLE.
YIENTS.

When will We ever rest from our
excessive haste and c;:rclessnesS, and
learn to do things fho:oHGhig. Al
English exchange tells Us that their
wagons and implements last - years:
while ours Ic rot last over five and
ten. Where is the difference! Are
our mechanics poor, or are they too
hasty, or do farmers fear to pay
enough for fr<t-claSs work?
In America everything in the way
of implements and tools wears out
very quickly; aud harness, as well as
every kind Of leather or cloth, tears
soon after it is new and very often
afterward. When I was about IA
years old, I learned to plow with a
low-handled wooden plow that my
father had when he commenced farm
ing, before I was born. And Is years
afterward this plow was still in ezls-
tence, having had a new beam, and
perhaps handles too, in the time; but
being very handy and favorite i'm
plement, it was kept in repair for the
youngest plowboys to 50 with. he
bought winnowing machine by
Cooch, Just after he was in business
and, although he had great quantl-
ties of grain to winnow Cat least e.:
900 or 1000 bushels per year, and
lent it to winnow thousands Of bush
els for other people, that machine
made more than half its cost price
after nearly thirty years Of wear.
Carts and wagons though constant
ly used, last very long time in Eng
land, and almost everything on a
farm is made to wear well; while in
America they are chiefly made fol
sale, and will be in need of repair in 4
few days. Half the wagons and dung
carts in England are at least quarter
of 4 century old; and the same may
be said of implements; and an eighth
of all the tools, ETC., in existence hao
their origin fifty years since. They are
not taken better care Of than here, MOI
are they used less-but, on the 80
trary great deal more; for there is
as much blowing done on 500 acres Of
arabic land in England as there is or
1900 acres in America, and as much
grain grown on 500 acres as there is
on 5000. So that the wear and tear IL
England does rot take the effect il
does here, because good wood and ircr
are used, and good work made"

HOW TO KEEP TOMATOES
FRESH.

A correspondent of the Rural Neu
Yorker in Pennsylvania writes:
l have this day, December 8, taken
to the store of friend a basket of
ripe tomatoes, fresh and nice as they
were last fall when pulled from the
vine. They were admired by a good
many persons. A lady present asked
if they had the same favor that they
had in their season, when on the vine.
I handed her one and tasting 1t she
replied; "Oh! how delicious and
fresh and such a rare treat. They
taste just as they do IN summer
when fresh from the vine" Now
these tomatoes sold out at retail at if
teen cents per pound in few hours.
The next thing after tasting the to-
matoes was. :'How did you keep
them ?" I did it in this way: In
the fall, before tie frost hurt them, l
pulled the largest tomatoes and put
them in my cold greenhouse: then
when there was. danger Of their freez-
ing, L removed them into another
greenhouse in which FIRE is kept, and
laid them with the stem down, on
damp sand. Here they ripen slowly,
and the moisture from the sand keeps
them fresh. In pulling them I leave
a stem on them about two inches long,
this put into the sand when | place
them on it. I used Trophy tomatoes.
The Trophy tomato being late va
riety and very solid I think is the
best for keeping. This is the second
season of my trying to keep tomatoes
till Christmas aud New Year. Those
that I sold would have kept till Janu-
ary l, 1878, very we'll I think.

SALT FOR SToCK.-A correspond

SALT FOR STocK.-A correspond
ent of the Boston Cultirator says:
My practice is to keep salt and wood
ashes where horses can have access to
them in the stable. I also keep salt
in boxes, in my cattle and sheep ~neds
during the time they arc kept up; and
! make salt boxes with roofs to them,
to stand in my sheep pastures, with an
opening on one side for the sheep to
put in their heads. Link in little
tar and sulphur with the salt for
sheep, decning the mixture healthy
for them. My conviction is, there
fore, that the salt should be put where
stock may get it when nature re-
quires. Hence my practice.
