Deserted Farms.

The New Hampshire State Board of Ag-
riculture are trying to devise some plan to
reclaim the two thousand or more de-
serted farms in the state. One prof.
Get is to appoint commissioners, with power
to arbitrate between the owner and the set Z.
tier. A fair price should be put upon the
property, and bond for deed given, al.
lowing the would-be purchaser a term, say
two or three years, TO improve the land aud
repair the buildings with no expense but
taxes, and, at the close Of the specif ed term,
the purchaser to buy the property at tho
price previously agreed upon, payment to be
made in easy installments, with moderate in.
terest.
This is favorable time for such move.
ment, and we are glad to learn that our
friends Of tho New Hampshire Board pro.
pose to cooperate with the forces which the
hard times have brought to bear in restoring
to the cultivation Of the soil the surplus pop
ulation stranded by the tempest which has
shaken the business interests of the country.
1t is feared that the coming winter will teach
many men that the farm is their only refuge.
If they will return to it with wholesome no.
tions of industry and economy, their cond.
tion will be improved.

Wastes on the Farm.

The greatest of wastes on the farm, is in
not using our brains: the greatest, be.
cause at the bottom Of all the other wastes.
A little thinking often saves much labor.
After accomplishing almost anypiece of work
the most of us can look back, and see how
we could have improved on it, if we had but
thought. As we review our crops of this
year, we see how they could have been easily
increased, had We only thought The ditch
we dug through the meadow, was not done
in the most economical way. We dug too
deeply at first, and did not allow for the
settling Of the land. Hence waste of labor
We omitted buying an implement that would
have saved nearly its cost in this one years
use, until we had spent much in trying to
accomplish our work without it. Here was
another waste. We carry a water pipe too
near the surface to save the expense of dig
ging it to proper depth, and the winters
frost necessitates a replacement of the pipe,
and an additional digging. Certainly, a
waste here, We allowed the weeds to grow
on one piece of land, not thinking to what
proportion they would grow by the time the
crops were too far advanced to admit the hoe.
A waste there which might have been obvi-
ated. And so on, wastes, little and big,
everywhere, all arising from our not thinking
sufficiently because not necessary
and easily obviated. We omit the ordinary
wastes from neglects, from laziuess, from
want of appreciation of cleanliness and thor
oughness, wastes from our stock, from
our manure heap, from our household.
Verify, little thought will save to the far
mer much, and the saving, through this
means, even on a small farm, will represent
the interest on a considerable capital. The
wastes arising from ignorance can very read.
lily be diminished, and are in large part in-
excusable those arising from carelessness,
are not deserving of sympathy. The farmer,
as well as the business man, must use bus
iness principles, to secure the largest success,
the and the one should be as careful of the
outgoes as tho other.-Scieatifc Farmer.

Bots in Horses. The Cad Fly.

Bots do not injure horses, but are ben
eft. IL is not unfrequent that l am called
upon to relieved some horse said to be
troubled with bots, but during my practice,
which has been nearly twenty years, | have
not found case where horse has suffered
any inconvenience from this harmless para.
site.
Tho masses have become honest in the
belief that their supposed destructive habits,
for the want of better knowledge of these
supposed habits and processes.
Veterinary science unfolds TO us that
nature has made this provision, and the only
provesion whereby the gad-Ay (aestrus equil
is gcrminated by and in the stomach of the
horse or those of his specia, the mule, Zebra,
Quagga, etc. What nature has made, she
has made perfect. l find no time in the
horses life when he is so healthy as when ho
runs to pasture. All horses that run in
pastures during autumn have bots, all colts
have them, and colthood is the healthiest
part of their lives.
The gad-Jfy is hatched and commences his
work about August lst
The female sticks the eggs with gluten
upon the forward limbs and shoulders Of the
horse he licks them off they come in con.
tact with the saliva Of the mouth, at which
instant they germinate into life. This is
shown by taking the egg between the thumb
and finger and applying warm spittle, and it
germinates at once. As soon as terminated
they seek some substance to which they can
attach themselves. They fud nothing until
they reach the stomach. Here they find
natures provision, the cuticular coat, which
occupies but small portion of the stomach,
that portion near the cardiac ori6ce. To the
cutlcular coat they attach themselves by two
hooks or PROCESSES, situated at the anterior
portion Of the bot; in this position they re.
main firmly until March or April, when they
mature in this larva state and let 90 their
hold and pass away with the excreta. AS
soon as voided they work their way under
some earthly substance or manure and
change to q chrysalis state. They remain
in this state until about the first of August,
when they break from their shell and come
forth male aud female gad-Ay, and 90
about their work laying their eggs. These
questions are often asked me, and their
answers may be of practical utility to many
farmers and horse owners. Does not the
bot bore or gnaw through the stomach of the
horse and thereby cause death? My answer
is, they do not As they have no organ by
which they can bore, neither do they have
teeth whereby they may gnaw! For the
coatings or membranes oil the stomach would
require teeth Of the carnivora to guaw
through them.
They have a mouth shaped for suction,
and sustain themselves by sucking the
mucous Of the stomach! The next question
in order is, "llow came the holes in the
stomach which we 50 often fnd when per-
forming autopsy ?" These holes are pro-
duced by the action of the gastric juice upon
the coatings of the stomach after death -

Hungarian Millet.

A great diversity of opinion exists among
practical farmers as to the value of the sew
eral annual grasses commonly known as mil
let. This may be accounted for in part by
the character Of the soil where grown. All
the varieties Of milet are peculiarly adapted
to light, sandy, or sandy loan soils, such as
will produce full crops OF timothy and red.
top only under the most favorable circum.
stances. Land that is excellent for grass is
not the best for mlllet, and the best mllet
land is not natural grass land. Millet re.
sembles the corn plant in its adaptation to
warm land and hot weather, and for this
reason we should expect to find it more
popular crop on the dry, sandy land border
ing our seacOast than upon the moist, green
hill-tops Of Vermont, New Hampshire and
western Massachusetts. And this we find is
the case--many farmers in the interior hav-
ing scarcely ever seen a patch Of milet
growing. Profitable crops Of mllet presup.
poses land easily plowcd and capable of be-
ing smoothed of aud laid down with little
labor.
As a feeding crop for mich COWS we hold
it in higher estimation than when we COM
mcnced raising it, probably because it is now
grown more thicklY and cut earlier Form
erly it was thought that peck of seed was
enough for an acre. Then twelve quarts was
recommended next half bushel, aud so on,
till now we find the most successful growers
using from three to four pecks Of seed per
acre. This gives fine quality of hay, and
If the land is fertile, a heavy burthen may
bo obtained. When hrst introduced into
our own neighborhood, many years ago, mil.
let was recommended as specially valuable
for horses, yielding both the hay aud grain
on the same plant, and it was tried for this
purpose, but without giving satisfaction.
The straw was too hard and stiff and the
horses did not appear to relish it like good
timothy and oats. Most farmers ROW cut it,
or iutend to, when it is in blossom, and when
cut thus early they 6nd that II is eaten
readily by all kinds Of stock. Many even
contend that it is better than the best hay.
We cannot give it quite as high credit, but
esteem 1t very valuable plant with which
to supplement the grass crop in dry season,
like the present. From two to three tons
per acre can be obtained in from sixty to
seventy days from sowing, aud it may be
grown after an early crop of hay has been
removed .-Neao England Farmer.

Winter Effects of Summer Drought

Few of us appear to to remember that the
effects of drought on trees may eliminate
a long time after the drought is past. The
follow ing, from the Germantown Telegraph,
is true:
1t is often thought that we are learning
from year to year but the conductor OF a
newspaper, beyond most others, knows how
knows how slowly tho world profits by the
labors of discoveries. From time to time,
however, We can refer to new matters in sea-
son, as the knowledge can be made avail able,
and in this way the newspaper can be the
teacher as we'll.
Amongthe knowledge gained 10 recent years
is the truth that the effects of a drought on
vegetation is not always Immediately appar.
ent. Trees, which seem to get through tho
summer struggle remarkably well, will often
live several years afterwards and yet die.
The reason Of this, divested Of all technical
language, is, that though not killed, the
vital condition is lowered, and thus dc.
gree Of cold, or any unfavorablo circum.
stances. which under ordinary conditions the
plant would easily resist, is too much for it
ana the tree dies.
We have had this season one Of the most
trying times in the drought line. Whole
forests 10 some parts, especially in the state
OF New York, have been destroyed; but
those which escape now are not safe, and
many will 60 in the winter, even though it
may be comparatively mild.
We may make use Of this knowledge
wherever we have particularly valuable trees
that it is worth while taking little trouble
to preserve. What is called life or the vital
principle in plants, is simply food changed
into that character, and thus by giving food
we strengthen life. Therefore, there is no
better way to help half-dried tree to get
through the winter than by giving it manure.
Spread thin around such trees as soon as may
be after reading this, 1t may seem tn at as
there will be no more leaf-growth or growth
Of branches this season, there will be no use
OF putting on manure now. But this is not
what experience teaches. 1t is found that
the roots are strengthened the whole vital
power increased by the top.dressings around
weak trees in the fall as we recon mend !;
aud as a great old farm-writer once said, a
grain Of practice is worth a ton Of theory
Evergreen hedges especially will be found
benefited by top.dressing of manure.

Apple Tree Borers.

A correspondent of the Mas sachusetts
Ploughman says;
Thinking perhaps some of the readers of
the Ploughman would like to learn of some
way of Kidding their trees Of this pest, we
send you remedies that have been tried and
are therefore safe and reliable.
First, to carefully examine the tree and
dig him out with the knife. Second, one
pound of sal soda dissolved in four quarts
of water, and this applied around the butt
of the tree. To be applied with brush at
the butt, four or five times year. One ap.
plication will remove the bark louise com.
pletely and give the tree beautiful appear.
ance. These we have tried aud know their
merits.
A practical nurseryman tells us that he
wraps piece of common brown paper five
or six times around the tree, extending from
the top root up the trunk of the tree about
six or eight inches, and fastens it with
stout string or tacks. He then paints this
paper with coal tar, One application will
do for two Or three years and will smother
the borer to death eventually. In applying
this remedy be careful and keep the tar
away from direct contact with the bark Of
the tree.
If ants work around the butt of the tree =,
put two tablespoonfuls of sulphur upon
them. This will in few days cause them
to leave, and is perfectly harmless TO the tree
itself. A quart or two Of wood ashes put
upon them will accomplish the same results.
