Sharpers are practicing . new
swindle among the agficulturists, and
which is proving very successful in
some portions of the state. They ap-
proach their victims under the pre-
tense of purchasing poultry, and if >
bargain Is CONCLUDED, the purchaser
pays one dollar to secure the bargain
and writes 4 receipt iu lead pencil,
to snap the point of the
pencil of just - he is ready for the
farmer to sign the receipt. Pulling
a fountain pen from his pocket, he
says: "Well, this won't break any
how" and hands it to the farmer,
who readily afixes his signature to
the paper. The sharper then leaves,
promising to call again in few days
for the poultry. The pencil marks
are then erased, and promissory
note made out for any amount that
suits the fancy of the sharper.

The American school-marm has
been discussed in the British House
of commons. They were sneeringly
referred to by a member when a gal
liant Irishman said he had been to
the United States and studied the
subject and expressed the opinion
that sit would be great benefit to
this country if we could import two
or three hundred of those American
women teachers"

MIX and Cheese Production.

Ihave had occasion to point out
how dairying many deplete the soil
on which the cows are fed, that milk
is rich in nitrogen and mineral con-
stituents. A COW that gives the mod
crate quantity of 1000 lbs. of milk
per year, would abstract from the
soil in her milk alone, 26 lbs of ash
and "a lbs of pure nitrogen in the
100 lbs of caseine. If the milk were
sold this would be all lost to the soil;
or if made into cheese the mineral
constituents, as well as nitrogen, will
be mostly carried off in the cheese.
The depletion is much greater in feed
ing milch cows cows than in fatten-
ing steers or cattle. If we are to sup
pose the steer to gain an average of
800 to 400 pounds live weight per
year, and then compare this with the
moderate average we have supposed
the COW to produce in milk, we find
the steer only involves aloss of three
or four lbs. Of mineral constituents
and about three lbs. of nitrogen. It
will thus be seen that if the milk be
sold, it will involve many times as
much loss to the soil as in growth of
the fattening steer. Whatever the
steer eats more than sufficient to sup
ply the elements of his growth, goes
back to the soil in the manure. This
explains the foundation for the opin-
ION quite prevalent that dairying is
more exhausting to the soil than beef
raising.
But all dairying is not thus ex-
hausting to the soil. Commercially
the most valuable element of the
milk sold, and all the rest is fed to
pigs or calves on the farm, it takes
little or nothing of value iu the but
ter for that contains no mineral, no
nitrogen-it is merely carbon and
water which may be replaced from
tn atmospheric. w. Stewart.

Syrup and Sugar from Amber Cane.

Mr.. G. F. Miller, of Dundee, Rice
Co., Minnesota, who with his part
ner, Mr.. Kenney, has done as much
to develop this interest as any other
parties in the county, writes, II have
been an operator in this business for
many years, and have raised and
worked several varieties of cane-juice
into syrup, always getting a much
inferior syrup to that which now
get from the amber cane. l never
could coax the other kinds to granu-
late, but now my barrels are often
half or two-thirds full, and in some
intances have found them filled to
within six or eight inches of the top
with solid sugar after standing on
end four or five weeks in a warm
room. The production has increased
in this county from few hundred
gallons year, when other varieties
were raised, to some $4,000 gallons
the past season. Some of the mer-
chants declare that we (the cane
growers) have ruined their trade in
syrups. I, for one, rejoice, that a
trade in these vile adulterated poi
soned syrups is being ruined. and that
pure wholesome articles now being
manufactured here are taking their
place. Our farmers wives, (who
ought to know say that the amber
syrups will sweeten more in cooking
than any others they can buy"
81 have just received letter from
a former neighbor now living at Los
Angeles, California, to whom 1 sent
a pound of the early amber seed. He
says it grew there luxuriantly, and
that it was declared by southern men
to be the s,oeetest cane they ever s0sc.
Some of our cane here on which the
suckers were kept down yielded two
hundred and eighty gallons to the
acre."
"The cane shon,d be planted on
well prepared clean soil. requires
considerable attention when young
to keep it free from weeds, as it il
very small on first coming up. A
good plan is to 60 over the field and
rake the hills with q steel rake. This
will not injure the cane, but will loo
sen the surface and kill the weeds
just starting, and give the young
cane chance 20 grow. The afte1
cultivation may be done with a hors,
cultivator, the same as corn, unit
the cane is two or three feet high
when deep cultivation should b.
stopped, as then the whole groun<
becomes filled with the fine rootfe
which ramify in every direction, ant
which would be injured by deep cul
J ltivation." +,
