In New York one hundred dogs are
daily put todeath, and probably ground
into bologna sausages. These dogs
are put into an air-tight vat, the lid
screwed down, the laughing gas turned
on, and in five minutes they are sent to

the means of effecting some good.
For the best mode Of applying ma.
nure on corn land l find that spreading

it under is decidedly best when there
is a large amount on hand. If | had

corn before it rains, then drop q hand.

Once grass OIL weeds. Some six years

one rod square, and put one bashel of
lime on each square. l let it lay two
or three years before I plowed it, then
l raised fine corn on it. after that a good
crop of oats and now fhaye afne crop
of clover on it Before this field was
lined it would not have grown clover
enough to cover the ground.
