Top Dressing Grass lands.

The success or failure of farming opera
tions depends largely upon the mode and
time of applying manure No matter how
applied, manure never fails to benefit the
soil, and rarely fails to benefit the growing
crop. But it may be used so that it will do
comparatively little good either to soil or
crop. In this section most of the rotted
manure from barnyards in the Fall is used
as top.dressing on wheat. The "patchy"
appearance of top p-dressed wheat, however,
results from an attempt to make small
quantity of manure produce crop ON poor
soil. To have the best effect on wheat,
manure should be applied on the surface
some time before sowing, and thoroughly
Incorporated with the surface soil by fire.
quent narrowing. But the best farmers in
this section apply manure as a top-dressing
for grass lands and young clover. To pro-
duce its best effect clover should have as
large growth as possible. In a large
growth the long top roots strike down deep
Ell, and not only loosen the subsoil, but
bring up fertilizing mineral elements that
have leached down during years of shallow
culture. Even if the clover be cut for hay
the extra growth of roots leaves the land
much richer than if no manure were used,
and the entire crop ploughed under. A
good plan is to apply all the finer and we'll
rotted portions of the manure to the young
clover of this years seeding. This will be
washed down among the roots by Winter
SHOWS and Spring rains, and give the clover
an early and vigorous start next season.
Manures are much more apt to wash away
on wheat fields than on clover, especially if
the wheat has small growth. This is one
point which our able correspondent, Mr..
Geddcs, did not mention in his recent ad-
vice to young farmers to top-dress wheat.
While agree that top-dressipg wheat is
generally beneficial, think it still better to
use the same amount of manure on clover.
There is temptation to apply the manure
directly to wheat, for that is crop which
brings the money most readily. But if the
land can be most benefited and after crops
largely increased by top-dressing clover,
that is the best policy.
1t is rare that several loads of ''scrapiDgs'
cannot be found at this season in bnrnyarCls.
These should be drawn and spread on young
clover. Even good rich soil from the road
side will pay TO draw, if not too far. The
droppings of cattle and horses should also
be knocked to pieces in clover and other
pasture fields. There is great advantage in
this, even if the field is to be plowed pext
Summer. Gypsum Tor plaster should al
ways be sown on surface manure land. 1t
is specific manure for clover, and though
not always uniformly beneficial, generally
does enough good to warrant its use.

Growing strawberries.

The Rochester Union tells of straw
berry grower who states that to tN o barrels
of rain water he put one-quarter of pound
of common nitre, and with this solution he
sprinkled his strawberry beds every night
when blossoming. The result is said to
have been double the amount of large straw
berries to that on the beds just adjoining,
not SO treated. The trouble with the mex
Perienced is the fancy that in proportion, as
stimulation is increased, the result will be
more and more benefcial-the fact being
that, while moderate stimulus may do
good, excess is the precursor of destruction.

To Clean Blankets.

The Boston Journal Of Chemistry gives
the following method Of cleansing blan kets /:
Put two large teaspoonfuls of borax and
pint ofsoft soap into tub OF cold water.
When dissolved, put in pair of blankets,
and let them remain over night. Next day
rub out, and rinse thoroughly in two wa
ters, and hang them to dry. Do not wiring
them. But this isnot the only use to which
borax may be put. Borax is the best cock
roach exterminator yet discovered. This
insect has a peculiar aversion to it. As the
salt Is perfectly harmless to human beings, it
is much preferred for this purpose to the
poisonous substances commonly used. Bo-
rax is valuable for the laundry use one
pound to about ter gallons OF water, and
you need only about one half the ordinary
allowance of soap. For laces, cambrics,
etc., use an extra quantity of this powder.
1t will not iDjure the texture of the cloth in
the least. For cleansing the hair nothing
is better than solution of borax water.
Wash afterwards with pure water II it
leaves the hair TOO stif. Borax dissolved
in water is an excellent dentriice or tooth
wash

THOMPSON'S
Fever and Ague Powders |
FOR THE
FOR THE
PERMANENT CURE OF CHILLs AND FE-
YER, DUMB AGUE, OR ANY FORM
OF INTERMITTENT FEVER
The Greatest Discovery Of the Age

HNHERE are no diseases SO deblitating in
il their effects upon the constitution as the
above, and none more difficult to cure by the
usual modes of practice. The Fever and Ague
Powders will effect a cure in cases of the long
est standing, as we'll as prove preventive In
the forming stages of disease. Being purely
Vegetable, they act with certainty on the dis
case, totally eradicating it from the system,
and preventing return at any future period.
Why waste your money and health in trying
every medicine you hear of, when Thompson's
Fever and Ague Powders have never failed to
cure the Chills in any case.
REASONS WHY THEY ONLY SHOULD BE
USED:
Their Reputation Is Established. - Thousands
of testimonials have been received, showing
that these Powders have performed miracles in
curing cases of long standing, many of them
considered hopeless.
There is no Risk IN Tdking Them. - They
contain nothing injurious, and, therefore cause
none of those lingering diseases SO often the re-
suit of the many nostrums of the day. Physi-
clans recommend them as far superior to Qui-
nine, rany other known remedy, for they leave
the system in healthy state, and the patient
beyond the probability of relapse.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITs. = The
genuine are put up in square tin boxes, with
''Thompson's Fever and Ague Powders
stamped on the lid, and the signature of
"Thompson Il Crawford on the wrapper
No others can possibly be genuine.
