A Place for the WagOn-BOX.

WHEN not in use the ~wagon-bOX is q
cumbrous thing to store away. 1t is toe
costly to be allowed to lie out amongst the
plows and harrows, and too bulky to find
a place in the Toulouse or the sheds.
Generally it lies up against the fence, or
at the back of the barn, where it is as
much injured in one year by exposure as
it would be by several years of use. A
very convenient plan is TO hoist it up to
the ceiling of a wagOn-shed, over the
place where the wagon usually stands ;
here it can always be lowered Oh to the
wagon in two minutes, and it is out of the
way and safe from injury. Its necessary
to have four rings on the w~agon-box, one
near each corner, two short ropes and two
long ones; and two small pulley-blocks
fastened to the beams overhead. The
short ropes are tied to the rings, each
crossing n end Of the wagon-box. There
should be a loop in the middle of each of
these short ropes, to which the long ropes
can be tied Or hooked. When the Wagon
is backed into the proper place the ropes
are fastened to the wagon-box, and each
end of the box is hoisted a few feet alter.
nately (f there is only one person to pull
it up until it is high enough. The ropes
ave fastened around cleats fixed to the
wall of the shed.-American AgrtculurfSt.

Poor Stacking.

A GOOD stack is required for a hard
storm. Too many make their stacks mere
" for pleasant weather. Almost anything
will answer if there happens to be little
or no rain before threshing. In bad sea-
sons much wheat is spoiled after harvest,
which. as a rule, is the result of bad stack
ing. This does not often happen in Min
nesota. hence our farmers become very
careless. Ii is not safe to do this impor-
tant work in a slip-shod manner, or to
employ those who do not understand the
business.
1t is not a very difficult matter to make
a good stack of grain-the main point be-
ing to keep the middle high and the top
well finished, to keep out the rain from the
center. In some parts of the country
cloth caps are used, and to good advan-
tare. If our farmers could thresh out
their grain from the shock, quite a saving
would be had and no little risk. But, OF
course, only a few ear get a machine 10
come into the field so early. At least
ninc.tenths must put their crop into stacks
and wait their turn. The prosperity OF our
State depends largely on the way our
wheat-stacks are made. II matters little II
we have a good yield, if it is not proper
" cared for after harvest.
These thoughts are thrown out to put
our farmers on their guard. 1t is bettel
| always to be on the safe side, and build
| the wheat-stack so as to stand any storm
| if possible.-St. Paul Pi0neer-PreSS.

Ren0vating Waste Land.

FARMERS cannot afford to pay taxes on
worthless land, beside losing the interest
on the money invested in the possession
of such land. In almost every section OF
the country there are thousands of acres OF
high-priccd land all grown over with
weeds and bushes. If reclaimed the soil
would produce bountiful crops. Here,
for example, is a plot Of ten acres yielding
ten tons of hay, worth 800. 1t has in ii
some stumps, more powders, some brush
by the wall and a few wet places, growing
nothing but sou grasses and flags. 1t
can be cleared of all obstruction, be un-
derdrained, SUBSIDIZED and MANFRED so as
to produce three tons of hay to the acre
for the sun of a few hundred dollars. 1t
will not pay the present occupant to do
this the coming year if he is going to sell
out the year following. But he may &C
complish all this economically in five
years, furnish profitable employment for
his help, introduce the moving machine
and cut more fodder upon the field than
he TO- cuts upon the whole farm. He
may get crops enough from the field dur
ing the five years to pay for all the
improvements, leaving the increased
value of the land certainly not
less than 800 an acre as the re-
want to be cleared of rocks, the swalcs
need deep underdrains cut through them,
with smaller side drains running into
them at right angles; old walls want re-
moving and the fields charging to ten or
twenty acres; the whole surface needs to
be thoroughly worked and MANFRED, 50 as
to produce maximum crOps. By this
thorough method horse labor may be sub
stituted for that of man, 50 as to save full
one-half Of the present expense Of raising
and harvesting the crops. In smooth land
nearly all the planting and hoeing can be
done by a horse; and the moving, reap
ing, grading and raking can be done by
the same method. The man who will lay
his plans wisely to improve his soil, max
ing this the chief object, and who will iu-
diciously eXpcnd his capital in the i'm
prOvemcnts we have indicated, is in a fair
way to gain a competence. This kind of
farming, in the long run, will pay amply
and we believe more surely than any 9th,
er business. The skinningprocess, which
is reckless Of the soil and looks only to
the crops, is bad policy both for the farm
and lis owner. Let it be abandoned, as
the practice tends to render 90 ID land
poor and poor farmers still more poverty
strickcn.-N. Y. HGraM.

Your Bones.

IT is a common practice with our mar
ketmen to weigh a piece of meat of what
ever kind demanded, and then trim off the
bones, etc, charging, however, for the
gross weight. This, of course, is in &C
cordance with the maxim that "whoever
buys beef buys bones" the retailer, him
self, having purchased on the same princi-
pie from the dealer. But the truth is that
the marketman has the best of the bar
gain. You may have your bones or not,
just as you please; but as he very consid-
erately says: "You can't eat the bones
and I'd just as lief cut them out for you"
Most people are so afraid of being thought
mean that they simply nod assent, and
the bones you have paid for drop into the
marketman's box to be sold over again at
the rate of from four to six cents a pound.
Of course the quantity of bone you pur-
chase doesn't amount to much in a year,
but the aggregate of all the customers of
the marketman must be something con-
siderable.
There are people who insist upon hav-
ing all the bones they are entitled to, even
if they make fuel of them and we are not
sure but this is as good a domestic use as
they can be put to. Some housekeepers
know how TO get soup out of the most un-
promising shins and knuckles; but in
many large households the quantity of
bone that goes into the swill-tub must be
somewhat extensive.
Bones of all kinds are so valuable, and
can be put to such varied uses, that.hun-
dreds of settlers along the valley of the
Arkansas River have supported them
selves by collecting buffalo bones. Heads
and ribs bring five dollars a ton, and are
shipped to Philadelphia, where they are
ground up into fertilizers. Shoulder
blades and shins are worth ten dollars a
ton, and are used by the sugar-refiners.
The horns are worth thirty dollars a ton,

Wooden Waste i'm Agriculture.

The available residue of the wool used
in any manufacture is about 90 per cent.
OF the whole amount. OF this waste all
is of more or less value as manure. 1t is
strictly heterogeneous, and has little other
value. The proportion of nitrogen is only
about 3.S5 per cent. of the wooden, and its
value to the farmer becomes afquestion of
carriage. If the wooden waste can be de-
liyered on the farm at a less cost than the
3.S5 per cent of nitrogen can be bought in
the form of commercial manures it will
pay 10 use it, otherwise 1t will not. Its
usual treatment on the farm is to plow it
in, to mix it with compost, or to mix it
with phosphates. In the ground it is slow
to decay, and it is claimed that it is avail
able for two or three years after placing in
the soil. Another and better method is to
use the waste as a litter and absorbent.
Manufacturers of nure use wooden waste
extensively by treating it with acids, al
kalies, OF superheated steam. Very fair
manures are made in this way and are ex-
tensively used in Europe. Still water, in
which sheep have been washed, has been
found to deposit a fine mud, also available
as manure. The subject of wooden waste
in agriculture has been under examination
in Belgium and the above facts are from
the official reports of the State farms.
The chief points are that wooden waste
is nitrogenous in character, that its real
value as a1nanure is only 3.S5 per cent.
of its bulk and that it is available as a
bedding material.-Scribner's Monthly.

SHE had had her mind made up for two
or three days that the boy needed some
castOr-Oil, but she knew that she must APP
proach him gently. She placed the bot
tie where he could see it, and when he
turned up his nose she said:
Its just like honey, my darling"
He seemed to doubt her word, and she
continued:
"IfyouT take some I'll let you go to
the circus"
"How much?n he cautiously inquired.
"Oh, only a spoonful, just one spoon
ful," she replied, as she uncorked the bot,
tie.
And you'll give me some sugar, be-
sides :" he asked.
"Of course | villa big lump"
He waited until she began pouring from
the bottle, and then asked:
"And you'll give me ten cents, toO?'
Yes, of course"
And you'll buy mea shoo-hy kite ?"he
went on, seeing his advantage.

back.
"Wcll, I'll buy you the kite" she re-
piled, filling the spoon clear up.

"You can't think no castor-oil down

his hat.
"Hcre-I will, or III tease father to.

it down"
And you'll buy me a goat"
YES"
And 200 marbles?"
"Yes. Now take it right down"
"And a coach dog?"
Il can't promise that"
"All right-no dog, no ile!"
well, I'll ask your father"
"And you'll buy me a pony"
"Oh, | couldn't do that. Now be a
good boy and swallow it down"
oh, yes, I'll swallow that stuff, |
wlll!' he said, as he clappcd on his hat.
You may fool some other boy with a cir
Gus ticket and a lump of brown sugar, but
it'll take a hundred-dOllar pony to trot
that castor-ile down my throat!'
And he went out to see if the neighbours
cat had been caught in the dead-fall he set
for her.-Detr01 Free Press.

The Industrious Swiss.

\ CORRESPONDENT of the Louisville
CourisrJ ouyNaL writes: | should be very
unjust if | were to suggest that all the
Swiss pcasantry are engaged in the beg
ging or cheating business. An early
riser for the ten or twelve days Of my tray
cl in the high and low Alps, l have seen
them working hard by the early dawn,
the men toiling, perhaps, under frightful
burdens, the womcn washing or cutting
hay, both sexes engaged in every form of
useful toll available to a people strug-
Cling with a hard climate and a thin,
rocky soil for their daily bread. Every
little patch of ground suitable for tillage
is seized upon, and where it is too high to
make grain they fall back on grass. Cha
lets appear where you would think no
family could possibly extract a living by
any possible industry. Descend a little
down to where there is a mountain side
and verdure-room, in a word, for grass
to grow and COWS to feed-and the whole
face of the country is dotted over with
chalCtS. You see many a habitation and
settlement where the winter winds are so
heavy and rough that the roots are thick
ly covered over with large rocks so as to
keep the tiles from being blown off, and
where the very small barns are perched
up above the ground so as to give a shell
ter underneath for the cattle from the
snow. To me all this is a refreshing
sight; the people are healthy and the busi-
ness is healthy, but when it comes to the
wood-carving, horn-tooting and milk-sell-
ing business, Swiss industry is much less
admirable

An Accommodating Sheriff.

A California Sheriff, who got tired of
having Conscience-stricken Nathan muir
derers give themselves up and desire free
transportation TO New York, there to ex-
plate their crime upon the gallows, ad-
dressed the last candidate as follows: $50
your conscience amt easy, eh?" "Ah,"
replied the murderer, a. have the curse
Of Cain upon my brow; | wander, wan
der, but find no rest And you're the
man?" q am" "And you want to be
hanged?" Il feel that | shan't rest easy
till | am hanged" We'll, my friend"
replied the Sheriff, thoughtfully, 1.-THE
county treasury amt well fixed at pres
ent, and | don't want to take any risks in
case you're not the man and are Just fish,
ing for a free ride to New York. Besides,
those New York courts can't be trusted
to hang a man. On the whole, as you
say you deserve to be killed, and want to
be killed, and as it can't make much diff
ference to you Or society how you are
killed, so long as you are, l guess I'll
kill you myself" So saying, he drew his
revolver, but that conscience-stricken muir
derer had departed in the direction of
Alaska with such fervor that the people
couldn't see the brand of Cain on his
brow for dust.
