We have several LINES referred to
chufas or earth almonds, still will take
pleasure in answering the questions
asked by a correspondent in Clayton
county.
The chufa is nutritious, sweet and
pleasant to the taste. 1t is a good, eco
nomieai feed for hogs, for pork making,
as it causes hogs to grow and fatten. 1t
is also good for poultry 1t is prolific
crop, and easily grown. 4 light, loose,
and loamy soil, rich in deeom posed veg
etable matter, is the most suitable for it.
Plow the land deep, and leave it with a
level surface, by good narrowing. Lay
off drills two feet apart, and plant the
stuber one to every twelve inches in the
drills; cover two inches deep. In the
early growth of the ehufa, keep the
ground clear of grass and weeds, hoeing
perhaps best let the culture be level,
no billing up. The chief point in their
culture is, to have your ground thor
oaghly prepared at the start, and when
the ehufa comes up and is growing; to
keep out weeds. Planting the chufa
should be done about the same time as
corn. LEX.

To CURE \ FELoN.-Prof. Hunter,
of Berlin, cures bone felon or whitIow bv
first probing the swelling of the finger,
making small incision where the pain
appears greatest. The pain of the oper-
alton may be lessened by the local appli-
cation Of ether or inhalation of chloro-
form. The after treatment is equally
simple. The small wound is to be COW
cred with lint and carbolc acid, and
bathed morning and evening in tepid
water. In a few days it is perfectly
healed.
To CURE 4 BURN.-This has been tried
IN the case of child 4 years old, who
had been badly burned. Suppuration
was abundant and so offensive that they
ordered the child tepid bath, contain
ing a couple Of pinches sulphate of IRON
This gave relief to the pain, and being
repeated twice a day, 20 minutes each
bath, the caild was soon well.--M. A. q.
To MAKE TURKISH MATS FROM BRUs-
SELLS CARPET The materials necessary
are tapestry Brussels and coarse wrap

strips of two and half or three inches
wide. and ravel out the wool threads; be
careful not to separate the clusters: set
up knitting on large steel needles take
mp one stitch of knitting put one of the
carpet threads on the needle, too; then
put thread around needle and knit both

AFTER ALL

The apples are ripe ia the orchard,
The work of the reaper is done.
And the golden woodlands redden
IN the blood OF he dying sun.
At the cottage door the grandsire
Sis pale ia his easy chair,
While n gentle wind of twilight
Plays with his silver hair,
4 woman is kueeling beside him;
"A fair young head is prest
IN the first wLd passion Oh zorrows
Against his aged breast.
And far from over the distance
The faltcriag echoes come,
Oh the flying blast of trumpet
And the rafting roll OF drum.
Then the grandsire speaks in whisper
"Ihc end 40 man can see.
But we give him to his country.
And we give our prayers TO Thee"
The violets star the meadows,
Tho rose buds fringe the door,
And over the grassy orchard
The Dink-white blossoms pour.
But the grandsire's chair Is empty,
And the cottage is dark and still,
There's nameless grave on the battle
field
And new one under the hill.
And q paIli1, fearless woman
BY the cold hearth sits alone:
And the old clock in the corner
Ticks on with a steady droue.

Pastures.

Sooner or later, says the Western Stock
journal, the American farmer will come
to know the full value Of the pasture,
and the necessities Of its preservation.
The common practice Of turning every
animal upon the pasture during the first
warm days in April, is not only injurious
to the animal, but destructive to the gras-
SEES The tender blade Of grass is pluck
ed in It's first effort to utilize the sunlight.
The root growth is influenced by the top
growth, and becomes a mass Of snaggles
with no great power. This close cropping
tends to make a thick, strong sod, but the
top growth is more like lawn grass.
Some grasses seem to thrive under this
treatment. Blue grass is peculiarly
adapted to close grazing, and should be
used only for early and late pasture.
Even upon this it is better not to turn the
stock out until there is some frmness in
the soil; the yield Of grass Will also be
much greater.
Early and late pasturiug Of clover is
absolutely destructive. The heavy tread
Of the cattle breaks the crown Of the clio
yer in the early spring, and kills IT; IN
the fall, close cropping leaves 1t too expos
ed. The large percentage OF material
obtained from the air through the leaf,
is an additional reason why there should
always be maintained a good top-grOwth.
Test the experiment of the difference in
clover production by turning on two
inch top-growth and a sixinch. More
than double the number of animals can
be pastured on the acre in the latter case
The true system of pasturage, then, is to
"a F,
es. Use the blue grass till June, or till
the clover is about six inches high, then
turn on the clover till the last Of Septem-
Der, by which time the blue grass has
attained a fine growth, and can be pas
tured all winter. Just the time to make
these exchanges must be determined by
the experience Of the parties and the
season. but clover and blue grass seems to
supplement each other. The blue grass
needs rest just the time clover in its great
est vigor, and the reverse. The blue
grass is hardy, and an excellent late
grower, but it does not thrive in dry
weather Here the clover has a prov
ince; its long tap-roOt can reach down in
to the soil a great distance to obtain
moisture, and hence it will remain green
when blue grass is parched and withered.
One Of the most important considera-
lions for successful stock growing is to have
abundance Of food in summer, and have
the supply constant Another important
item is to have good fall aud winter pas
turage. Here we have the conditions Of
success. Blue grass in the spring, clover
in the summer, and the blue grass for late
fall and winter feeding. Even in this
climate, where there are trees to protect
from the cold winds. it would not be nee
essary to feed stock animals more than six
weeks in the winter, providing good blue
grass pasture was close at hand. Horses
can keep with an average hay feed OF not
more than one month
This method is no experiment, and
neeos only trial to be generally adopted.
Try it.

The Judiciary Committees of both branch
es of Congress have reported in favor of the
repeal OF the bankrupt law.
On Monday the Senate was enlvened by a
lively debate on the timber land bill. The
correspondent of the Tribune writes: A
fierce conflict arose between Mr.. Blaine
on the one side and Messrs. Hoar, Dawes
Ingalls, and Matthews on the other, which
lasted until nearly O'Clock. Mr.. Blaine
succeeded in carrying off the honors, but his
manner was most decidedly unsenatorial.
lie interrupted Senators without their con-
sent, and he referred tp them repeatedly by
name but by his dash, and his readiness,
and his loud voice, he held the opponents OF
the amendment for time at bay, then
drove them to the defensive and finally to
the retreat. His manners were more fitted
for the floor of the House than the Senate,
and many of the old members regretted that
the Vice-President did not check the dash
ing Senator in his frequent violations OF
Senatorial usages.
