To SAVE MoNEY.-Save all the manurial pro-
ductious of the farm. This may be considered
a trite theme by some of eur readers, blu: the best
agriculturists and horticulturists of the country
agreed in advising all who cultivate the soil to
use every means possible to save stimulants, no
matter how much Of MURAL fertility there is in
it. No pound of manure should ever be suffered
to wash away in waste from the stable hog pen,
ben roost, or even from the back door of the
kitchen. Every farmer who is not more fastidi-
Gus than wise will spread the waste matter from
the kitchen door, which SO often makes the back
yard damp, unsightly place, frequently forming
a indus for the propagation of miasma. Friends,
if you want your homes healthful and pleasant
ones, and also to increase your receipts give
this your attention, and remember whatever in
increase Of production you secure, is so much
clear gain, because it will cost you no more to
cultivate nor to harvest the same. than it does
without. Put what the house produces on the
garden, and what the stable and hog pen pro-
duce on the farm.

Why SOME PEOPLE ARE POoR.-Silver spoons
are used to scrspe kettles.
Coffee, tea, pepper and spices are left to stand
open and lose their strength.
Potatoes in the cellar grow, and the sprouts
are not removed until the potatoes become worth.
less.
Brooms are never hung up and are soon spoiled
Nice handled knives are thrown into hot water
The -four is sifted in wasteful manner, and
the bread pan is left with the dough sticking to it
Clothes are left on the line to whip to pieces in
the wind
Tubs and barrels are left in the sun to dry and
and fall apart.
Dried fruits are not taken care ofin season and
become wormy.
Rags, strings and paper are thrown into the
fire.
Pork spoils for want of salt, and beef because
the brine wants scalding.
Bits of meat, vegetables bread and cold pud-
dings are thrown away, when they might be

Il Good COaU.

There is bat a very limited idea among the
mass of farmers of what constitutes good cow.
They do not make the necessary efforts to learn
the amount of milk and its producing qualities
in butter and cheese. Three-fourths of all the
cows in the northwest are such poor mixers that
they should be sent to the butchers and better
stock supply their places. To do this it is not
necessary to. procure blooded stock, for some Of
the common stock are the best mixers. With
these and breeding to male animal from dam
Of good reputation fer milk, very soon one cow
will supply the place of two. There are plenty
of cows that give twenty quarts of milk at a
milking for a few weeks, but soon dwindle to
mere shippers. Sometimes this is owing to the
deficiency Of the mixer, other times to the want
of suitable food, and frequently to the poor quail
tiles of the cow. With good, gentle, regular,
rapid mixers, the season ofmilk should continue
almost undiminished for nine months. The rea-
son the Ayrshires, Jerseys and other cows are so
celebrated for their milk is the careful and scien-
ti6c breeding Of the original stock and the watch-
fulness with which the blood has been per-
petuated. If man with the right turn of mind,
with all the means requisite, would take some Of
the good mixers Of any common stock and pro-
duce race or family, with strict view to milk,
we have no doubt better stock could be pre-
duced than ever came from the Isle of jersey
1t is not the soil, grass, or atmosphere of either
-Iarsav Aurshira nnrS that nrad,.oA ~a4r.--
ally fine stock for milk or beef.
But it is the genius of man handling and COM
bining the best specimens of the kline family,
with wise and discreet crosses that evolve the
stock, that is making the owners and the world
rich. If men commanding liberal means would
direct their energies in procuring stock suited
to the production of cheese or butter, there is no
good reason why better quality for that pur-
pose could not be produced. The world is ad-
vancing in every material and scientific depart
ment, and it is folly to 60 back to the end Of
time, to the fields of old worlds, to replenish the
praries of the West The time should come soon
when the little powers of the powers of older
kingdoms should be supplied from the wider,
richer and more productive powers of the world,
which have been reserved by Providence to be
developed during the last half century.

The ORIGIN OF "BEE. The term "Bee' new
SO generally applied to spelling classes has for a
century or more been used in connection with
cuttings, corn huskings, apple butter bOilings,
and other pleasant gatherings of country people,
where the busy industry reminded one Of the &C.
tivity of beehive. When the quilt was COM
pleted, or the corn all husked, the youngsters
generally amuse themselves with dancing, play
ing games &C., and amongst other pleasant
amuesnents spelling classes were introduced
Tothese old fashioned country customs, we think
may be traced the origin of the term "Bee," in
its application to photographic contests.

-Berks county contains sugar bowl said
to be three hundred and seventy years old.
The Frederick Examiner reports the crops
IN that vicinity as very promising. The farm
ers anticipate an usually heavy crop Of corn
to offset the scantiness of the wheat crops.

Profitable Crops.

A large number of letters reach US from farm
ere who inquire what cropswe would recommend
to De raised upon certain parcels Of land, with
view getting from them the largest cash returns
These are very difficult questions to answer in
fact, any answer must be to a large extent empir-
ical, and the opinion untrustworthy, as there are
conditions to be taken int account of which we
can have know knowledge. The nature Of the
land is to be considered. it's fertility, its situa
item, its nearness to market, etc. Unless land
is put in good filth, no crop can be raised with
profit. A hundred times have we said to farm
ers cultivate less land, and put every rod of that
which is cultivated in to high condition. 1t is
an axiom in successful farming, that one acre
must be made to give returns equal 70 four, un-
der the old system Of New England farming
Make one acre give yeu eighty or one hundred
bushels of corn, or thirty-fve bushels of wheat,
the same Of rye, or three tons Of hay, and then
you are on the road to successful farming. You
cannot afford to drudge away upon your land
which gives ysu bat one-third Of these results.
We have enc measured acre OF land which for
twelve years we have studied carefully, and kept
an account Of the expenses and value of crops,
and it has afforded us much instruction. Last
year the acre gave Us thirty-fve bushels of sum-
mer rye, and about two tens Of straw. The rye
we sold the present spring for $l.25 per bushsl,
and the straw had cash value Of FIVE dollars per
ton; the cash value of the crop was therefore
$93.75, and from this we deduct the expenses SO
far as they can be fairly estimated, about $2S,
we have a clear profit of more than S65 from the
acre of land. Now if farmer has ten or twenty
acres under cultivation, giving like results, they
afford him a fair income, and with the returns
from other farm departments, the business Of
farming does not appear pecuniarily bad. The
truth is, farming must be studied, and well con-
sidered it must be well conducted as mer.
chant conducts his business, with intelligence
forethohght, and good common-sense. Farmers
must look upon their land as merchant doe:
upon his merchandise, and the question to bt
rendered is, How can l make it pay me the bes
preft? Farming, that is, the right kind of farm
ing, is good business we insist upon it, it il
good business for man to follow.-BostOr

Although Mr.. Donaldson, the aerOnaut,
did not succeed in reaching Europe last
wear by the AID of the easteTly GZrrent, his
limited success has induced Mr.. BarnUm to
make a further engagement with him for
the summer months of 1915. A few days
ago an agreement was entered into by
which Mr.. Donaldson agrees to devote his
entire services to the furtherance Of aero
nautic travelling during the next eight
months, for which he is TO receive the sum
Of $4,000, Mr.. Barnum further agreeing
tODay all expenses attending the expert
ment. During the last summer Donaldson
made a large number Of successful acsn-
sions, during which hundreds Of careful
observations were made, none Of the re-
suits OF which have as yet been made pub
lie. 1t is considered proved, first, that il is
possible to land a balloon successfully at
a1y point named and TO re-ascend without
material loss Of ascending power and,
second, that q fixed law governs the ar
currents, a knowledge of which will enable
the vOyageur to leave any spot and return
to the same az pleasure. During the past
winter Mr. Donaldson has been engaged in
arranging cOmpactly the results Of his
work during his many years experience,
and possesses therein q more complete
aerial chart than was ever before compiled.
Extensive preparations have been made for
carrying on a successful summer campaign
during the coming months, to absolutely
determine the existence Of an easteTly cur
rent. If these experiments continue to de-
velOp Mr.. DOnaldson's theory, there is
little doubt that by October Of this year he
and a selected company will have a try at
the Atlantic. He is now at work upon six
balloons Of various sizes, capable Of carry
ing from one to twelve people.
