Don't Rel v ON Corn Alone.

The Western Farmer says: The in
dications are decidedly in favor of hay
ing good price for corn during the
summer and next fall and winter. In
view of this it is especially important
that farmers should make provision to
secure as much growth and flesh for
their stock during the summer as prac-
ticable, and to provide food that will
take the place Of corn to some extent.
If there is good field Of clover for the
hogs, this will save the corn during the
summer. We wish there-were more at
telltion paid to root growing for stock
feeding. Some farmers have found
peas very profitable crop for feeding
from the field, sown either alone or with
oats. A great growth Of pumpkins can
be secured and they are well worth their
cost. Corn thickly sown in drills is not
only valuable for cattle but for hogs in
carly fall. 800,

White,vusl, for ShiuRlcs.

The following is from the New Eng
land Farmer: Mr.. N. P. Rines, of
Hampton, N. H., in reply to late in
quiry iii the Farmer about the use of
lime On a shinglcd roof, says it will pay
well to whitewash sap shingles; they
should be perfectly dry. and the more
lime they take up the better, but use no
salt. He thinks the best method of
using lime is, to dip tho butts of the
shingles in boiling hot whitewash before
they are laid. We would suggest that
wet, lime-soaked shingles would he
rather hard on the hands of those who
lay them, almost as bad Us sowing wet
ashes by hand.

For me his upward soaring wing.

Drops through the dark blue heaven above;

Hah! half the day has sauntered by;
A snake winds through the billowy moss
Beneath my head and on the sky
The crossed and bent birch branches toss.
From leaf to leaf tumult creeps,
A GOODNESS drops upon my face,
And down the west light rain sweeps
A mist as fine as ladies' lace.
Aye! dear are summer dreams, and sweet
The sensuous scent and song of June,
And dear the brooks brawl through the heat
The perfect rest and hush of June.
