Fruit as a Medicine.

The irregular eating of unrire fruit is
well known to be unwholesome. The regu
lar ard moderate use of well ripened fruit
is not SO widely appreciated as contributing
to health. Residents in regions where more
or less malaria prevails have discovered that
nothing is more sure preventative of Its
deleterious effec Its than regular supply of
fruit. But fruit will not only prevent dis
ease, but, II some instances, it has proved
one Of the best medicines to cure it. Many
years ago chronic cough, which had ex
cited good deal of uneasiness, was cured
by daily eating ripe raspberries, reccmmend
ed by medical writer of high authority as al
excallent expectoraut Severe colds are more
apt to occur on the first cool and dam p days of
autumn than at other seasons. We have
often cured these diseases on the first attack
by eating copious.y of ripe ~aternelons.
The beneficial effects of drinking freely of
cold water on such occasions are we'll Known.

We would easily swallow in any other way.

Speaking of the i'll flavor of eggs, the Jour
nal of Horticulture, of London, remarks
that it is the result of one or two causes
either the food OBJ which the fowls ere fed
or the substances on which the eggs are laid,
and adds: TINS may bs easily tested by
shutting up laying hen and giving her gar
lie or melted barley to eat. In a few days
the eggs will taste OF the food. We have
tried this ourselves aud know it to be cor
rect. Another theory is-5ut we can not
speak CT 1t with the same certainty-shat an
egg laid on any strong smelling substance
will contract it. This is explained by tue
fact that the she'll. when the egg is first LAID,
is ompsratively soft and impressionable
and only tecomes hard after contact with
the atmosphere. Let your birds be whole
somely fed on plain food, and your nests be
made with clean straw. Hay nests have a
tendency to make eggs taste. Follow nature
and you will have nothing to com plain of. -

Yha. the Farmer Should Study.

The farmer should study the laws OF con-
ceutrStiou. He should learn how to con-
centrate bis crops into the best paying artl-
cles. Does be consider that butter, cheese,
beef. pork and mutton represent only GER
tain amount of erase, hay and grain that his
farm produces? That instead Of selling the
raw commodities, he can. by putting them
Into these articles get much better returns
for his products. HIS study should be how
to transform the raw products of his farm
into something that is concentrated and that
will bring him most money. What he
raises has to 60 TO soma market. BY con.
densing it, little freight will have 10 be
paid. and thus much will be saved A farm
is not only a farm; it is, or should be, fac
tory for changing the raw products into arti
cles of general consumption that have a
commercial value the world over-that are
of the best quality, that keep well and sell
well, and bring prices that will pay we'll for
the skill, labor and capital employed in pro-
ducIpg them.

Saving Cloverseed.

Saving C1OyerSeeu.
The very high price which farmers fire.
quently have to pay for cioverseed should
induce them to save st least suficieDcy for
their own supply, and undoubtedly. If we'll
followed up, make ita very profitable business
as money crop. farmer, who is vouched
for as one of the best cloverseed savers, gives
the following hints as TO the saving
of the seed: "The second crop is for
the seed, and is really tit for no other pur-
pose. as 1t ssliyates the stock fed on it. The
pest time to cut for seed is g very nice point
to determine. 1t should be cutwhen q ma
jority of the heads turo brown, and before
any begin to shed off the little seed pods,
each CT which contains seed Cut the
second crop Of clover just a.. though it were
for hay, rake it into windows and let it lie
and take one or two showers; then put it
into very small cocks while damp. about
one good pitchforkful in place, and when
il is dry put into sacks and cap with some
thing that will turn water, or what is still
better. if you have a shed or barn. put it
there and let it remain until you get huller
to take it out for you. Let our farmers save
all the cloverseed they can, and thus help to
make thousands OF dollars for the State, now
sent out each year for cloverseed to SOW
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1879-10-01

best way to furnish it lie to consume all that
is raised on TIE farm; in fact, this il the only
way 70 make the land respond iberaliy to
our oenesfs; hence the farmer has double
inducement,, and should act upon the sug.
gestioas that point out the right way.
Hay that has been cut late may be improv-
ed by curing it in the cock instead OF drying
it in the SUM- Being comparatively dry
when cut it Is very soon cured; and If put
up in cocks as soon as it is thoroughly wilted
it will heat and steam and become much
softsned, and will remain greener than If
sun-dried in the swath. s
Potatoes suffer more from weeds than any
other crop. One weed will take up and
evaporate good deal of moisture frot- the
coil, and rob the crop OF what it greatly
needs This loss of moisture Is nor often
thought of in considering the effects of
weeds, but it is very important. When too
late to be killed by cultivation, the weeds
should be hand pulled. aa
Many fruit growers make the mistake OF
allowing tree or vine to carry the maturity
all of the fruit which sets after blossom, the
consequence in most cases, being large
yield of inferior quality and size. Careful
experiment has shown that the results have
been more profitable when the system ol
half has been adopted producing large, foe,
perfect specimens, which will always com
mand a renunerative price, even when the
market is glutted. Apples, pears and peaches
should receive this attention before they
become larger than ordinary marbles;
grape clusters may be tkInned while in
blossom, and plum trees, by a vigorous
shsking, can be relieved of their unnecessary
surplus. al. ,;,s
