limb is cut too close, it will leave large

An orchard in the condition heretofore

Cure for Ring Bone.


The Country Gentleman gives the following
receipt for ring bone. Mix well one and
One-half drachms biniOdide of mercury with
one ounce of lard. Rub this ointment we'll
into the skin daily over the humps, shaving
off the hair. Two hours after each appli-
cation paint the blisters with a soft brush)
with tincture Of arnica one ounce to water
twelve ounces. DO this daily for a week /,
then omit a week, then repeat This will
generally cure recent cases so they will
show no lamsness, but the Jumps will remain.
The colt should be kept tied 50 that he can
not bite the blisters. No remedy will remove
the Jumps.

Echo Farm.

LTTcnFIELD, c., October 9, 1875.
DEAR FARMER You may be interested
to hear something about the famous "Echo
farm" which lies on hill, mile or two
from Liichfeld, CT.
The land in this neighborhood is uneven,
stony, cold and not naturally fertile. 1t is
twelve hundred feet above the level of the
sea. These 400 acres which comprise "Echo
farm" would not be selected by the shrewd
farmer, ordinarily, as the most hopeful to
remunerate his toll or To show his skill in
tilling the soil, and yet. it has proved to be
one of the best Of farms for both purposes
Mr. Starr, the owner, has been here six
years, and it is wonderful what results he
has brought out, by his industry aud pro.
fessional skill. ......
The first thing ho did was to clear out the
stone and put them into substantial walls.
lie did not, however, adopt Paddy's theory
who said he built his fence six feet wide aud
Eve feet high, so that when it .umbled down
it would be higher than when it stood up
But his object was first to clear the land of
stone, and secondly to make substantial
fence for the protection of his fields.
Mr. Starr found large tracts of land GOV.
cred with brush aud bush. All this he
cleared away, and secured hay crop which
paid for clearing, the first year. This land
was worthless, but by the free use of muck
worked into the cold soil, be has made it as
beautiful as a lawn and fruitful field.
And "Echo" is a dairy farm. No other
in all this region feeds no many AlderDoy
cows (nearly one hundred) or produces so
much gilt edge" butter. They roam over
billy pastures and crop the grass from the
rich meadows during the summer, and in the
winter, occupy palace barn, have seen
herds of cattle exposed to the cold and storms
OF the severest winter, with no protection
by night or by day. have seen them in
open barns and half covered sheds shiveriDR
and suffering intensely from exposure. But
the barns, stables aud stalls on the "Echo
farm" are elegant. They are con structed
with as much care and adaptedness to their
several purposes, as the wards Of a human
asylum or the apartments of hotel. Con-
yenience, economy, health and comfort of
the animals, saving Of time and labor, clean.
illness aud order, are all provided for, with
the greatest caro-.
The cows are all named and numbered
and registered in the herd book, and when
they come from the pasture to be MIXED,
each COW finds her own stall and is confined
there. These stalls are kept as clean as
kitchen, aud as each COW is released from
her place she goes to q fountain of water
and takes drink and returns to be fed, with
as much care as the children in the house.
The milk goes to the dairy-hOuss where il is
set for cream, not in broad shallow pans, as
is usual in the farm house, but in pals
twenty inches deep and eight inches in diam
eter, nearly full Of milk. These are set into
cool running water, and cream four or FIVE
inches deep, rises to the top. Then comes
the churning, the packing and working,
which is done with the greatest care and

charcoal is an impure form of that won.
derful substance, carbon, which enters largely
into the composition Of both animal and veg
table matter. 10 combination with hydro.
gen it forms carbohydrates or fat and heat
forming elements in food. 1t would seem to
be a simple thing to apply it to the soil in
such way that it can be utilized as ferti.
lizer. And yet we cannot give any certain
directions for doing it. Carbon in some of
its forms, as in the diamond, is exceedingly
indestructible; and it is we'll known that
charcoal is very effective in preserving meat
aud other substances from decomposition.
II fine coal and coal dust from a coal pit be
applied to land, we are not certain but it
would remain in just the state in which it
was applied. If composted with manure,
the query arises would it not tend to retard
its decomposition, and so injure its value.
Carbon has the capacity of absorbing seventy
times its bulk of ammOnial gases, and is
used with efficacy as an Antisceptic for pre-
serving meat and other substances and as a
remedy for bloat in animals.
The most certain way that occurs to us
for the utilization Of charcoal dust aud fine
charcoal is to feed it to poultry.

edge Of chemistry is greater than our own,
or who has had practical experience in the
use Of charcoal as q fertilizer, can give any
information, our columns are at his service
Perhaps Professor Collier can throw light on
the question.

Springfield Town Fair.


The Springfield fair appointed for October
lst and I'd, was, on the evening of the first,
postponed to the fourth aud fifth, on account
Of the weather. But on the morning of the
second the clouds broke away, and the day
was fine. A large majority of the people Of
the town who lived distant from the village,
and residents Of other towns, had failed to
hear of the postponemeut, and they had
started bright and early Saturday morning
for grand holiday at the Springfield fair,
many Of them with live stock and a great
variety Of other articles to be contributed to
the exhibition. Many we're from Weathers-
field, West Windsor, Chester and Rocking
ham. After proceeding from one to five
miles these people met the news that the fair
was postponed to Monday, and they turned
homeward with disappointment and vexation.
One exhibitor came from the distant town of
Rochester, and returned without seeing the
show.
The mistake of making pOstpouement
over the second day in advance, was fatal
one to the success Of the fair Those who
had started once did not, as a general thing,
try again and when the weather on both
Monday and Tuesday was threatening, no
prophet was needed to tell what the result
would be. The exhibition fell far short of
what it would have been on Saturday, though
In many classes il was good, and the attend.
anco was light.
Our engagement at the Rochester fair
called US away on Tuesday, and we have no
report Of the proceedings of that day.
On Monday there was good show of
oxen, some thirty pairs being on the ground.
In numbers, of course, it was nothing COM
pared to what the town could do. Two
teams were made up from the east and west
sides of Black river, respectively. The at

Pruning. f

The subject of pruning fruit trees is one
which practically receives too little attention
from the farmers of Vermont. Orchards are
allowed to grow with little or no care until
the trees become tangle of useless sprouts
and dead limbs. Such orchards of course
fail to be profitable. The owner knows that
something ought to be DONE but is not sure
as to the best time to do it, and with the ex.

A Large Ok.

The late Hon Isaac Hubbard of Clare
mont, N. H., raised an OK very celebrated in
his day, named Olympus. He was grade
Durham. His sire's dam having been im.
ported from England for the use of his
family by the late George WIN Bond of
Boston. When SIX years old he was sold for
the purpose of exhibition, and after visiting
the then principal cities Of this country was
carried to Europe and exhibited in London,
Paris and other large cities to more than
one hundred thousand people. Olympus was
very symmetrical in his proportions and ofhne
bone. The Rev Isaac G.. Hubbard, d. D.,
rector of Trinity church, CaremOnt, and
owner OF part Of the old homestead, an
enthusiastic farmer as we'll as clergyman,
sends us the following memorandum of this
famous OK.
Ok Olympus, raised by Isaac Hubbard,
was six years old the fourth of July, 1888
