Partial Soiliug,

When farmer sows fodder-corn to cut
up green, or sows Hungarian grass, or
uses clover to exc out feed enough for his
cattle in the dry weather Of July and
August, he adopts q partial soiling sys-
tenn, and that might be adopted very gen
orally and with great advantage that is,
the regular feeding of cattle with green
food in the barn in addition to the pastur
age; and if a farmer should stock heavy
and teed his cattle in that way more or
less all through the season, he could make
very large amount Of manure to keep up
and improve the quality of his land. 1t is
question whether it is more economical,
on the whole, to buy and feed grain, lin
seed meal, and cotton-seed meal and
economze the manure produced than to
purchase commercial fertilizers The far
mer then knows what he has to rely npon,
and that he cannot often know when he
goes into market to buy any concentra-
ted fertilizer. That very confidence is
worth great deal. The system Of partial
soiilng offers the highest conditions Of
success, especially if purchased feeding
substances like Indian or linseed meal.
are added to the green crops that can be
cut fresh and used as food for stock A
small amount of meal can be ted daily
through the summer to cows in milk to
great advantage and with great economy.
1t keeps up the condition, adds to the pro-
duction OF milk, and rapidly improves a
farm, 1t is becoming more and more
clear that we must adopt a system ofhigh
er farming in New England if we are to
maintain our position as an agricultural
community, and the system is the pro
duction and application of the largest
quantity of manure. The production Of
this manure viii depend upon the adop-
ton of the partial soiling system and the
resort to the culture OF annual forage crops
as the best means OF increasing the sup
plies of winter TODD tor stock.

In an Hour.

IN take the orchard path" she said.
~, Speaking lowly, smiling slowly:
Ihe brook was dried within its bed.
The hot sun flung a flame OF red
Low i'll the West, as forth she sped
Across the dried brook-course she went.
Singing lowly, smiling slowly:
She scarcely saw the sun that spent
It's fiery force in swift descent
She never saw the wheat was bent.
The grasses parched, the blossoms dried:
Singing lowly, smiling slowly,
Her eyes amidst the drouth esped
A Summer pieasance far and Wide,
With roses and sweet vioets pied.
But homeward coming all the way,
Singing lowly, pacing slowly,
She knew the bent wheat withering lay,
She saw the blossoms dry decay,
She missed the little brooklet's play
A breeze had sprung from ont the South
But, signing lowly, pacing slowly,e
She only felt the burning drouth:
Her eyes were hot, and parched her mo utl
Yet sweet the wind blew from the South!
And when the wind brought welcome rain,
Still signing lowly, pacing slowly.
She never saw the lifting grain,
But only-a lone orchard lane,
Where she had waited all in vain

MOTHS IN CARPETS. One can never be
quite sure that his carpets are not being
consumed by moths. except Tor a few
weeks after having them taken up and
thoroughly cleaned, unless something is
used to prevent their growth, or to des-
troy them. This often nccessitates the
taking up and cleaning a carpet that other
wise would not need the renovation
With an ingram or Lowell, this needless
labor may be saved by laying down Il
damp cloth, and over it thoroughly rub
bing the edges with hot tiat-iron; this
will kill the nuth, if any lave acoumu-
lated But with tapestry, Brussels or vel
vet, the ironing is not etfectual; besides
it Injuries the carpet Much hard work
may be saved, however, by removing the
tacks, one side at a time, rolling back and
examining the edges. If there are any
moths. they must be brushed off and burn
ed and TO effectually destroy the life Of
all deposits, the edges of the carpet lining
should be thoroughly looked to. and the
exposed edge of the floor washed, and
while damp sprinkled with salt If the
carpet is to be folded under in any place,
sprinkle salt between the folds and see
that the floor is well covered with salt for
an in inch or two under the edge of the
carpet all around. If salt were always
put under the edges Of carpets before
taking them down, moths would have

Sheep, Dogs and Bells.

The effect Of bells in preventing dam
age to sheep by dogs has been we'll PROV
ed in this vicinity the past season. OF four
teen tlocks without bells but one escaped !;
in five floeks with bells on each sheep no
damage was done. Mr.. d. Fowler, Middle
field, had a flock partially belled, and lost
but one sheep, which strayed into another
lot, was without bell, and was killed.
Mr. A. b. Coe bought tlooh and put in q
lot adjoining the former, and soon found
two dogs at work on the forty-fifth sheep.
The dogs belonged within a quarter of a
mile and passed Mr. Fowler's sheep in get
ting into Mr. Goes flock. Dogs, after get
ting taste of the blood of unbelled sheep
may attack sheep with bells on; yet be-
lieve ii all sheep were bclled, trouble from
dogs would be very rare. The great diff
Guilty has been to get bells which did not
wear the strap off. Bells with shanks to
penetrate the strap will wear it off in a
few weeks. l have found bells of all sizes,
made by Bevins Brothers, of East Hamp
ton Ct, cast with staples for the strap to
pass through, which move on the strap,
and all the wear does not come in one
place; the strap can be drawn out to oil
TO be safe, every sheep and lamb should
wear a bell. GCountry Gentleman.

BALING HAY. Wood hoops, once in
universal use for baling hay, are now used
but in few sections, and where used, are
rapidly giving way to the more convenient
ties, and it is now an established fact all
things considered, that wire is the most
practicable material for securing baled
hay Stats are not essential in baling hay ;
they are, however, profitable where they
will pass for hay, but it should be borne
in mind that heavily wooded hay sells at
discount, and moderate or lightly wood
ed hay will be found much the more prof
liable, even in markets where the wood
passes with the hay. We are of the opin-
ion, however, that there is now no profit,
if indeed there is not an actual loss. by
wooding hay. as people hsve learned to
discriminate between hay and wood, and
generally purchase it enough less, SO that
the wood hardly brings its cost and freight,
