HOW TO SAVE CLOVER SEED.

One of our best clover seed savers is
just at our elbow and he says; ''Tell
them the second crop is the one for
seed, and is really fit for no other pur-
pose, as it salivates the stock fed on
it. that the best time to cut for seed is
a very nice point to determine, it should
be cut when the majority OF the heads
turn brown, and before any begin to
shed off the little seed pods, each of
which contain seed. Cut the second
crop of clover just rs though it were
for hay, rake it into windrows and let
it lie and take one or two showers;
then put it into very small cocks while
damp, about one good pitchfork full in
a place, and when it is dry, put into
sacks and cap with something that
will turn water, or what is still better.
if you have shed or barn, put it there
and let it remain till you can get hui
Ter to get it out for you. There are
hullers enough now in the State tohull
all the seed needed for home use, and
the owners OF the huliers are wilIicg
and anxious to go TO any So ction where
work can be had. Let our farmers
save all the clover seed they can, and
thus help, TO make thousands of dol
lars for the State now sent out each
year for clover seed to sow.-RurGl

JAPANESE FARMING.

We have aJaparese field before us,
in the middle OF October, with nothing
but buckwheat upon it. The buck
wheat IS planted in lows, twenty-four
to twenty six inches apart; the inter
vening now vacant space had been
sown in spring, with small white turnip
radishes, which have alrea iy been
gathered. These intervening vacant
spaces are now titled with the hoe to
the greatest depth attainable with the
implement. A portion OF The fresh
earth is raked from the middle up TO
the buck wheat, which is now in full
flower; u furrow is thus formed ia the
middle, in which rape is sown, or the
grey winter pea, the seed being manu-
red in the manner already described,
and seed and manure afterward cover
el with a layer OF earth. BY the time
the rape or the peas have grown one
t. two inches high, the buckwheat is
ripe for emitting. A few days after, the
rows in which it stood are dug up,
cleared and sown with winter turnips
or wheat Thus crop follows crop the
Shole year through. The nature of
the preceding crop is matter of in
difference, the selection of the succeed
ing being determined by the store of
nature, the season, and the require
Inents OF the farm. If there is a def
cheney of manure. the intervening rows
are allowed to lie fallow until suffi
cient quantity has been collected Tor
them.-Pen and Plca0.

EATING FRUIT.

While few articles of food are more
injurious than unripe fruit, still it is al
most imp ossible to take too many OF
those that are ripe, fresh and perfect
when eating in their natural state. The
earlier in the day such fruits are eaten
the better. Their heeltful quality de-
pend on their ripe acidity, but if sweet
ened with sugar not only is there acidity
neutraliZed, but the stomach is tempt
ed to receive more tran it can digest

Dor of digestion is increased. No liquor
of any description should be drankwith
in an hour after eating fruit, nor should
anything else be eaten within two or
three hours after-thus. time being allow,

COCKLE BURR.

Among the enemies of the farmer,
there is none which is more offensive
and, if allowed to prosper, which saps
more Of the substance Of the soil than
the cookie burr. Other weeds and
grasses crowd themselves into the farm,
no matter how careful or industrious
the owner. But not so with this burr
Yet it frequently takes possession of
the farm by the neglect of careless ten.
aats, and by equally careless owners.
There must be neglect somewhere. 1t
does not come upon farm with q
heavy crop suddenly. 1t usually ap-
pears first by solitary plant, the
seed dropped from an animals tail or
in foul oats. If this be allowed to
seed, there will be hundreds the next
year. Cattle will spread them, and
in a few years they are all over the
farm. They are, however, 30 large
and prominent a weed, they should az
once attract the attention OF the tiller
of the soil, and be destroyed. a few
seconds at this time well employed
will save, in after years, months of
labor and vexation. A tenant who
will allow cockle-burr to seed should
be liable in a suit for damages TO the
owner. And the owner, if tilIing the
soil himself, allowing such things,
should not be trusted at the village
store for pound of tobacco.
But when they have once taken
possession of the farm, constant and
persistent industry will eradicate them
But they must be fought late and early.
They are ravenous feeders, and will
absorb all the substance of the soil if
allowed to grow amidst tire crop.
When the soil is once seeded. it will
take at least three years of watchful
cultivation TO destroy them. There
are two seeds in each burr, and one
grows the first and the other generally
the second year, but they will in rare
cases lay over without sprouting until
the third year. They must not only
be zsalousiy combated through the
cultivation of the crop, but the fields
must be carefully gone over immedi-
ately after harvest, and then again in
September. Ii it comes out of the
ground three weeks before frost, and
oniy attains TO one inch high, it will
Qerfect burr, ready for perpetuating
its species. But perseverance will win,
and then only can the farmers sleep in
peace. -IOlCa Register.
