GARDENING.

The Chicago Times gives the following
good advice in regard to the garden
Notwithstanding that the soil in the
West is better adapted to gardening than
the soil in any other part of the country, we
have poorer gardens here than in the East
and South. In many prairie farm houses,
vegetables, aside from potatoes and cab
bages, are as scarce as on board whaling
ship. AS rule, throughout the West. the
larger the farm the smaller and poorer the
garden. A farmer who has an estate of
thousand acres is liable to look upon raising
s'garden truck" as very small business. Ac-
cordingly his family never have any Of the
luxuries that come from a well-managed
garden. Many country-bred people never
eat lettuce, rallishes, cress, caultiower, eel
cry or eggplant, unless during visit to
city. They have an idea that great amount
of skill is required to produce these vegeta-
BILE, while IN truth they are as easily raised
as corn, oats or potatoes. A garden may be
so arranged that most of the work in 1t can
be done without interfering with the regular
farm operations.
"a vegetable garden should be tolerably
near the house, for convenience in working
it as well as gathering the vegetables. 1t
should not be so near, however, that fowls
will be continually going to it and scratch
up seeds. Many farmers have garden en-
closed by fence and planted in part with
trees and bushes. They often lay the ground
all out in beds and walks, making it neces-
sary to do all the eutivating with the hand
and hoe. There are objections to having
vegetable garden surrounded by perihall-
ent fence, aud still greater objections TO nav
inc trees and bushes growing where vege-
tables are raised. If the piece OF ground de-
signed for garden be- fenced it Will be
found difficult to plow it, and spading is
l.awkward business ta most Anlarlcan' Iasla--

stock breeding and rearing are a necessary
part OF a farmers business, he should under
stand the laws of life. both vegetable and
animal. The intelligent feeder should have
scientific knowledge of the structure and
functions of the animals he grows. Reason
ing from cause to effect, as the animals have
no power of transforming one element of
food into another, he should know the exact
nature of the food he intends for particu-
lar purpose, which can alone be obtained by
a scientific knowledge of its elements, and
thus know just what is required to build up
the frame, the muscles, or produce fat. The
farmer should know what kind of food con-
talns the necessary coloric to keep up the
animal heat in low temperatures; and what
food contains the most starchy elements, to
produce certain results.
Nor is a knowledge of the structure and
wants of animals all that is necessary. Veg
etable life must be understood, and to know
just what kind Of food each particular plant
requires for its health and development.
And thus, if our correspondent will dip deep
into the duties and business of a true farm
er, he will find that intelligent agriculture
should be conducted on science, art and skill.
All other branches of industry have limited
fields Of research. Agriculture is boundless.
Farmers have CROPPED in the dark long
enough, and the business has been degraded
for the reason that the ignorant and the un-
learned have plodded on, doing things at
random, as frequently wrong as right.
When our correspondent, as well as the rest
OF the world, learns that the advanced farm
er and the farm are governed by definite
scientific principles and rules, as fixed as
those Of mathematics, mechanics or engill-
eering, then, and then only, will the intelli-
gent farmers son respect the calling of his
father. Then will the farmer take his true
position in the society of the refined and
learned. Then no longer will farming be a
game Of chance. or the farmers features pro-
claim him drudge.-Ioaoa Register.

AGRICULTURAL ITEMS.

FORTY per cent. Of the whole civilized
world, or l60,00O,000 people, cannot raise
sufficient wheat for their own wants.
1t is estimated that in plowing an acre of
ground two horses will make about 230, 900
foot-marks and necessarily harden much of
the soil on which they tread.
ESTIMATING the produce Of an acre in oats
at 90 bushels, they will contain 450 pounds
OF flesh-formlng food and 672 pounds of fat
forming food; while three tons of hay Oft
the same acre will carry 4S0 pounds of flesh
forming food and 2,790 pounds of fat-form-
ing. Hay is a standard food for cattle.

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.
sTRAWBERRY SYRUP.

Use Strawberries of a good flavor; do
not forget that If the berries possess no fla
vor you cannot expect to obtain a syrup of
fine flavor. Avoid, also, rotten berries, be-
cause, unless you Go, you may be sure to
find as flavor the smell of the rotten berries
in your syrup. Mash the fruit in a barrel
or other suitable vessel by means Of a poun-
der, and leave the pulp for II or "a hours at
temperature between 20 and so degrees,
stir occasionally, press, set the juice aside
for one night, add for every pound avoirdu-
pois of juice one ounce ayoirdupois Of col
ogne spirit or deodorized alcohol, mix, set
aside for another night, and filter through
paper.
For one pound of the filtered juice take
one and half pounds of A sugar, and heat
to the boiling point, taking care to remove
from the fire or turn off the steam rs soon
as the mixture begins to boil; remove the
scum, and bottle in perfectly clean bottles,
rinsed with little cologne spirit.
Blackberry syrup can be prepared in the
same way as the above. For home use the
tiltering may be dispensed with, as also the
cologne. Put little in a tumbler and fill
up with fresh cool water and see what a re-
freshng drink you will have.

RHUBARB AS FOOD.

Every now and then somebody is limiting
that rhubarb is injurious to the human FAM
lily, and at page 365 is an inquiry on the
subject from South Carolina correspon-
dent. Having eaten it freely for SIX years,
cooked in every form, during April, May,
and June, and having fed my family with it
plentifnlly, can say with certainty it is the
very best purifier of blood, and the most
useful plant, used as fruit, in a garden. The
reason for the pretended dislike to it is, that
it takes a good deal of sugar, but if bar
rel extra was used, it ought not to be grudg-
ed, as it will save more than two or three
barrels worth of sugar in keeping the doc

for drugs or quack medicines. I have just
come from Quebec, and brought barrel
full of roots, which have planted here in
Orange county. 1t is growing as fast as
possible, under the circumstances.

and perpetual snow, found he had been SELL

used to mix it with gooseberries as soon as

used for tarts, and made into mess just like

NOTES.


1t often happens that farmers and their
wives, who are wise enough to keep poultry
about the homestead, are not thoughtful
enough to make a note for further use, of
the excellent suggestions for their profitable
management that appear, from time to
mediate occasion for applying our advice,
they follow it with satisfactory results but
if the opportunity for doing so is deferred,
many of them are apt to forget all about the
matter when it would be to their advantage
to act upon the suggestions here made.
Hence it is necessary to repeat briefly, at
intervals, much of the advice that has pre-
viously been given in our pages. The sub
stance of the following notes, from the
Weekly Herald, has, at different times, been
already been laid before our readers in
greater detail, but the subject is now re-
Cured to in the way of a reminder:
"a daily ration of green food is an actual
necessity for laying hens. Vegetables,
either raw or cooked, of which they are
very fond, supply, in a measure, the place
of green diet. Onions chopped fine and
mixed with their food are very wholesome,
and in many cases preventive of disease.
There is no green food so good for growing
chicks as onion-tops, cutup fine; they should
always be fed something of the kind when
it is necessary to house them on account of
inclement weather. Put away choice eggs
with the name of breed and date of laying,
until some hen wants to set. Select a good
clean nest and put in china egg; hang a
piece of board over the nest to keep the hen
in and outsiders out. Put the hen Oh the
nest and shut the door; if she is wild a few
hours will quiet her, and by evening the
valuable eggs may be substituted for the
china one. The eggs should not be more
than thirteen days old, and marked with the
expect the brood to hatch out. Feed setting
hens with corn once in tWenty-four hours.
Close the doors Of the hen-house, lift the
hens from their nests by their feet, provide
them with corn, fresh water, and a box Of
sifted ashes or road dust. Close the nests
and leave the hens for twenty minutes, when
they will be ready for their nests. During
the latter part of the three weeks, sprinkle
the eggs daily with lukewarm water, while
the hens are feeding. If the hens We're set
late in the day, the chickens should hatch
out at evening or in the night; by the next
day they should be ready to, leave the nest.
put q ynivt,,ro of karosana on their heads
and under their wings, and remove them
with their mother TO a clean coop. Darken
this coop somewhat for couple of days,
so that the hen may keep herself quiet and
her chicks warm. Cover the floor of the
coop with sifted ashes.
