A MOTHER RAT FxcrTrI

ANOTHER RAT ExcLUDER.-A cor
respondent of the Building News
says -" Nothing can be better to ex-
clude rats than to concrete the surface
of the ground between wood floors
not only for this, but to prevent the
growth Of vegetable matter, and to
prevent as we'll damp arising. All
ground floors, whether wood, paved OF
tiled, should have layer of concrete
three to four inches thick between them
and the soil. l have been in the habit
of doing this for years, and all such
houses have dry floors, and are vermin-
proof as far as the latter are concerned
as rats cannot disturb well-made con-
crete. The concrete should be made of
moderately-fine gravel, (broken flint or
glass added to it is an improvement,
mixed with Portland cement, in the
proportion of one of cement to seven
of gravel Not too much water should
be used, but the cement must be thor
oughly mixed with gravel, and when
der sited in place, well trodaan or
beaten with a grass-beater. y ,e or
four inches at most is sufIicienthn thick
ness"

seven ewes that were not bred, and one

l have an idea that we shall see
higher prices for wheat, and lower prices
for barley for the next few years. Last
year barley paid better than wheat.
Next year it would not be surprising il
wheat paid better than barley. l think
the prospects for farmers are quite en-
couraging. The present and prospec.
tive good prices for pork will add large
ly to the aggregate profits of farmers,
and do much to enhance our general
prosperity. Many fnanciers are look
ing to political action to set the wheels
of trade and commerce in motion. l
am looking to the pork barrel and the
corn crop. The pig is master of the
situation. He is the most potent agent
for keeping down railroad freights and
for increasing agricultural profit. We
can, by his aid, pack dozen bushels of
corn in barrel, and transport it around
the world. What we have to do now
is to look to the QUALITY of our pork,
bacon, hams and lard

1t is also necessary to adopt the soil

1t is also necessary to adopt the soil
ing system for Summer feeding, and in
my opinion there are only four green
crops required, and in the order named {:
rye, orchard grass, clover and corn
Stop the steamer when the rye is ready
to cut, and until frost give the cows all
they will eat of the above in two meals
per day, with only the addition of four
quarts Of chop.
My reason for giving up the milk
business was because the wholesale
price of milk fell from IS cents to 90
cents per gallon, thereby reducing my
gross receipts about $4,000 per year.
1t is most slavish business and the
milk man deserves good profit for his
unceasing labor and attention.
He must look forward to a visitation
of that terrible scourge, pleuro-pneu-
monia, which has attacked almost every
large stable of cows without exception
in the vicinity of Baltimore in the last
ten wears, and his profits must be suf-
fcient to stand the heavy loss when it
comes
To make this profit he must keep his
average at two and one half gallons
per cow, and get sixty-two and one half
cents for it per day.
At this rate the following is an esti-
mate of the net profit per COW in a
stable Of forty cows for one year:

Notes from Walks and Talks" in the
American Agriculturist.

The Model Barn" has yet to be
built. 1t must embrace the idea of
threshing more or less of our grain as
we draw it from the field at harvest,
and of furnishing ample room for hold
ing CUT or CHOPPED straw, cut corn fod-
der and cut hay. If l was to build
one, l would have it two stories high
and a basement. The upper story
should be for cut feed, and the lower
story for sheep and horses, and the
basement for cows, pigs, root cellar, etc
The straw, corn stalks and hay should
be cut with large feed cutter, with a
"carrier" attached for conveying the
cut stuff to the upper story, where it
should be placed in large bins or COM
partments. From these spouts, 2 1-2x-
l-2 feet, would let it fall as fast as
wanted to the stories below. | tried
the plan last Winter, and found it a
great saving of both food and labor.
l should use the straw quite freely as
food for sheep, and after they had pick
ed it over, use it first for bedding for
the sheep and horses, and afterwards
throw it down to the basement to be
again used for bedding the cows and
pigs. The horse litter would also use
for the latter purpose. | use all my
horse litter in this way now-and does
not this double worked manure make
the corn and grass grow!
"Prizes for grain" said the Deacon,
care won by those who know how to
clean it most thoroughly. l guess if l
had run my wheat as many times
through the tanning mill as you did, l
could have beat you" l wont argue
that point. The extra quality of these
prize peas may have been due in a
good degree to the skill with which
they were cleaned. No matter about
that. If SO, it shows the Importance
of having good tanning mill, and
using it until we have got out the
largest and heaviest grains for seed
If a farmer has 500 bushels of wheat
and wants so bushels for seed, it will
pay him to run the whole lot through
the tanning mill, until he has got out
so bushels of the best kernels. We
should clean our grain for seed as care
fully as an experienced exhibitor cleans
his grain for fair.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1875-10-16

the system and regularity observed in
large manufacturing establishments, and
the farmer should work it to the full
extent of his capital and his market.
Keep as many cows as you can, feed
them as much as you can coax them to
eat of the richest and most nutritious
food, and steam everything in the Win
ter.
The milk producer should never en-
cumber himself with young stock if
he has feed for these it is better to keep
few more cows that will yield him a
daily income. Buy good fresh cows
from farmers who are not in the milk
business and have your cows fat for
the butcher by the time they get down
to one or one and ahalf gallons of milk
per day. l have occasionally sold cows
to the butcher for as much as $40 more
than / paid for them when fresh.
l have tried both syst" Aeeping
the calv.s and found it necessary to
Keep almost fourth more cows to pro-
duce the same quantity of milk than
when fattened and sold to the butcher
Almost all cows drop eff in their milk
when they are half gone in calf, but
they must still be fed until they calve
and MIXED until they 60 dry. My
profits were increased when the former
system was abandoned.
l found the best mode of Winter
feeding to be the following:
A. NJ, before milking, one quart
yellow corn chop. I A. NJ, 10 pounds
cut clover hay and seven gallons of hot
slop made with five pounds brownstuf
mixed together $50 A. NJ, two quarts
yellow corn chop dry, to induce the
cows to lick their troughs clean. ~ NJ,

quart of chop sprinkled over it. 8P
