Cultivation Of Sage.

Sage is grown for market by sowing
the seed early in spring, in rich, mellow
soil, kept carefully free from weeds, I'M
til the plants are ready to be set out in
the beds. This is done in June and July.
The soil should be enriched with we'll
rotted manure, and should be made very
fine by narrowing and raking, as the
plants are at first small and delicate.
The rows are fourteen inches apart, and
the plants are set eight inches apart in
the rows. The rows are kept free from
weeds by working with small steel gar
den rake, which is better than hoe. In
September each alternate row is cut out
and bugched for market, leaving the
Others to grow. In a short time the
plants, now two feet, apart, will meet,
when, if the soil is very rich, the altern-
ate rows may be cut, and those left will
be ready to cut after the second cutting
is sold. In this way heavy crops are
raised on rich soil. About thirty-six
ounces of seed will produce enough
for an acre. The seed is sold for 50 a
pound. The whole crop may be cut
when in bloom and sold, and the plant
thus raised as an annual, changing the
ground each yesr; or the plants, which
are perennial, may be left to sprout
again. The average price Is ten to fifteen
dollars per 1000 bunckes, which yields
about five hundred dollars an acre. The
usual cost Of the crop is $3.50 per acre.

Poultry.

A breeder of poultry writes Every
spring l procure a quantity of cedar
boughs and scatter them plentifully in
and around the hen house. This is all
that is necessary, as the odor of cedar
keeps away lice. This remedy is cheap
simple and effective, and is we'll worth
trying by all who have hens to care for.
Buckwheat is one of the most staple
articles of poultry food. 1t is very fat
tening, an excellent egg producer, and
very much relished by the poultry. 1t
is not, perhaps, used as extensively here
as IN Europe. In England, France and
especially in Germany, it forms not only
an important part of poultry food, but it
is much used for various culinary pur-
poses. The great value which it has
over other cereals, is that it thrives lax
uriantly even on the poorest soil. Those
who have not tested its value as poultry
food, We advise to give it a trial.

Culture Of tie Artichske.

During the last few years that l have
raised artichokes, have cut the tops
late in the fall after the frost had killed
them, and used them to cover my straw
berry plants, for which purpose they are
much preferable to straw; but last fall,
having some late orders to fill conclud-
ed to cut q part of the tops as soon as
they had blossomed, and feed them to
my cows As desired 10 ascertain
whether it made any difference in the
growth of the roots. I dug part of those
from which I had cut the tops, and also
part from those on which the tops re-
NAMED, but 1 could zee no difference in
the size of the tubers, and 1 was surpris-
ed to see how greediIy my cows devoured
the stalks, and am sure that they
MIXED fully as we'll as they did when
fed sowed corn. As the artichoke grows
with stalk from six to ten feet high,
with numerous side branches, am sure
that it will yield nearly or quite as much
green feed as sowed corn. l will now
state few reasons why 1 consider the
artichoke preferable to any other root
for stock:
First; 1t is adapted to all soils; al.
though the richer and the better titled
the soil is, the larger and more profta.
BILE the crop, while for other roots, unless
we have the very richest and mellowest
of well MANFRED land, it is vanity and
vexation of spirit as we'll as labor lost, to
try to raise them.
Second, their great productiveness.
One year ago last season l had one-shif.
teenth of an acre, from which l dug fifty
six bushels. The land has been cropped
for the last eighteen years, and owing to
late planting it was small crop COM
pared with what l have raised on the
same ground the last season; judging
from what I have dug, they will yield
fully one-half more.
Third, their hardness. There is no
bug or insect that will i9jure them in
the least; also, unlike any other root
with the exception Of the parsnip, they
require no winter protection, Withstand
ing the severe cold of oul northern win
tiers without injury.
Fourth, its ease of cultivation. No
back aching work, finger wedding, or
plants needed with this crop,
but may be cultivated like the potato.
By planting early in the spring, the
broad rank foliage will soon smother any
weeds that may start. l will close this
article by saying that l know of no veg
etable that is relished SO generally by
all kinds of stock. or that will cause cows
TO yield as large flow of milk, as the
artichOke.-Cor. Ohio Farmer.

The WIRE WORM.-Being troubled
with the little pests one year, l was ad'
vised to soak my seed corn in a solution
of copperas and saltpeter, using one
fourth of pound each to bushel OF
ears of common eight-rowed corn. The
result was that my seed all grew, and ]
lost none by the wire worms, and l new
er saw corn have so dark and vigorous a
color before. Since then always soak
nv seed twelve hours after being shelled.
/ do not know that it would affect the
cut-worm, but have never been troubled
with them since l used the solution OF
copperas and saltpeter. Neither was
ever troubled with them when plowed
my corn in the fall, which l would in
tariably do on old sod. Some farmers
exterminate them by hunting them out
in the hill and killing them by hand, but
this is slow and tedious work, and is
liable to be sighted by hired help

How TO KEEP BUTTER SwEET.-A
friend assures tis that his wife always
keeps butter sweet or removes rancid
taste and odor from it by means of char
coal packed in the vessels with it. She
cuts smooth sticks of charcoal, and, after
washing the dust from them, shoves
them through the butter petpendicularly
allowing them to remain in the vessels
until the butter is consumed. Fresh
butter will never become rancid if thus
packed, while rancid butter will soon
become az sweet as ever. This may be a
valuable hint to people who make butter

Care Of Horses Legs.

Few men who handle horses give prop
er attention to the feet and legs. Espe
cially is this the case on farms. Much
time is often spent in rubbing, brushing
and smoothing the hair on the sides and
hips, but the feet are not properly exam
ined and cared for Now, he it know
that the feet of horse require more
care than the body; they need ten times
as much, for in one respect they are
almost the entire horse. All the groom.
ing that can be done won't avail any
thing if the horse is forced to stand
where his feet will be filthy. In this
case the feet will become disordered, and
then the leg will get badly out of fix.
and with bad feet and with bad legs,
there is not much else of the horse fit for
anything.
Stable prisons generally are terribly
severe on the feet and legs of horses, and
unless these buildings can afford dry
room where horse can walk around, lie
down or roll over, they are not half 50
comfortable or healthy to the horse as
the pastures, and should be avoided by
all good hostlers in the country.
When the ground is wet in the Spring
and Fall Of the year, horses are liable to
be afflicted with scratches and grease in
the heels. To cure and prevent these
disorders. the parts should be we'll washed
with emelient soap, and afterwards rub
bed dry with soft cloths, after which they
may be touched with sweet oil or healing
ointment. and the animal should be kept
out of the wet as much as possible.
