Ro;ution IN F.trnli"g.

1t is q great mistake to suppose
that the more acres you I'LL the great
er your profit. This is true only
when every acre is titled just as it
should be and the tendency is the
greater the number of acres titled
the less scientific becomes the man.
agement Of eac', field. AS a general
rule 100 acr"s is sufficient for the
most energetic farmer to handle since
he will put twice the amount Of time
on one ! section, that he would on
either OF tie two4 sections if he had
them, and he will eventually make
more m oncy from two days work on

one section than he would from the
same distributed over two ! sections.
The continual crop of wheat from
the same field will, in time, exhaust
it, no matter what the character of
the soil. Therefore the wise farmer
will not try to draw from one field
crop of wheat year after year, but
will change about. He will have his
farm divided into as many as seven
or eight fields, In two of these he
will have wheat, in two others he
will have roots and corn; in another
oats and barley, and two others pas
lures, and perhaps summer fallow in
another, and each year lie has a rota-
ton ofcrops. The fields WI ich have
this year produced his wheat will
next year ne devoted to something
else which will add to instead Of
drawing from the richness Of the soil,
and the wheat is not raised ag,in up
on this field for a number of. years.
The following is plan submitted to
us by IN Intelligent farmer of Eng
land Prairie to be applied on q farm

A. A represents lC acres facing
the road fora residence, stable, gard
ems. poultry yard, etc. B B repre-
SCENTS a lane Or road running the ELL
tire length OF the firm and conn ect-
ing with The stable yards. ~ 5
6 I and 8 represent eight fields con-
tHining a little less than Is acres each
all fenced and connecting with the
lane by suitable gates Or bars. Now
then the plan Of rotation is ma,!e
clear by this plan. It. requires, of
course, large amount Of fencing,
but when once done your farming
operations is reduced to an almost
absolute system, more easily handled
and more lastingly profitable than
one or two large fields. For instance
fields one and two are sown in wheat
and 4 roots and corn, 5 and pas
lures, Z and s oats. rye and barley
and. the next year 3 and are sown
to wheat, and 6 to roots and corn,
and SO on, rotating each year.
This plan Of course is subject to
any change the judgment Of the farm
or may suggest, but the question of
rotation and more diversified farm
ing is one Of permanent Importance
to every farmer who wishes to make
his farm successful in the most graft
flying degree. Under this plan the
farmer gives his stock fresh pastur-
age every year; each crop is prodnc-
ed under the most favorable condi-
ton Of the soil; in short this plan
has only to be suggested to the in
telliyent farmer when he will at once
perceive more advantages connected
Herewith than we could enumeratc
in four columns Of space.

apartments. One is the bed room,
the other is the day and laying room.
The day room wants to be about
twice as large as the bed room and
above ground and facing the south
with plenty oflight. A ground floor
is the best for this room. Put lots
of straw on it and scatter their feed
in the straw; the idea Of this is, it
gives the hens employment. They
need employment to keep them in
good health, and it tends to keep
them from getting too fat and pla-
thoric. I have heard great many
say that their hens were too fat to
lay. I never had one too fat to lay,
just by giving them employment.
Put ashes in this room and have their
nests about four feet from the ground
and don't put them too high as a hen
that is very fat don't like to. fly high,
as she is liable to hurt herself in the
effort. Change the straw in the nest
once q week, and shake some sulpher
into the straw to keep down vermin
and lice; there is nothing keeps them
down better than this as it is sure
death.
Now for the feeling Variety in
feed is very essential; my plan is to
give them ground feed mixed up
with water or milk with little pep
per or ginger and apinch of salt, in
the morning; it digests quicker than
whole grain. Then alter they eat
some of this take some screenings Of
wheat and little corn and scatter it
on the floor where the straw is, and
then you will see them work. Screen
ings are better than clean wheat for
the great variety OF seeds makes them
feed better. Give them all the p0to-
TO peclings both boiled and raw; il
raw chip them up small; also chop
up cabbage leaves, turDirs, scraps Of
meat and crumbs from the table. and
just al hour before shutdown put into
their he room u pan full OF screen
inys. The purpose Of that is it stands
longer On their stomac>s during the
long winter nights.
And now, dear reader, if you will
give them the care and attention
which they require they will repay
you with plenty Of eggs in the whit
er; good fresh eggs wholesome and
toothsome, and if you want to sell
the eggs you always can Coz mand
good, remunerative price rs they are
scarce at that time of the year. There
is no use keeping hens in winter for
their product in summer, for by keep
ing them in good health in the winter
they commence to sit earlier in the
spring and by the Fourth Of July you
can have chickens that will sell at
twenty five cents each. There are
so few farmers that take the trouble
to try and raise hens and eggs in the
winter that they always command a
good price. But remember ifyou
want to succeed in business it must
have all your care and attention. |
would not advise any farmer to deal
in any OF tue fancy breeds but any
common breed is good if they re-
ccive proper care. Aud another
thing never keep y hen more than 3
years; after that they become un-
profitable. They are just in their
zenith at two years, and quickly de-
teriate both in their productive and
l:,ttenng qualities. Give them gen
erous feeding. give variety, plenty
OF air and warmth, change your males
often and never breed in and in as
this tends to lessen the produce.

could not sleep. Whether it was because
OF the motion of the cars, the noise, or the
novelty of the situation, he could not tell,
but, try as he would, he could not sleep.
At length it occurred to him that he was
thirsty. The more he thought of II, the
more thirsty he got. 30 he called the
porter, who brought the ladder and helped
him down.. Now, while he was gone for
the water, one OF the "boys" stepped out
of bed and shifted the ladder 90 that it
rested against the berth in which the
ancient maiden was sleeping, and then re-
ment or two the husband returned, and
crept quietly up the steps, anxious to make
as little noise as possible SO as not to
awaken his wife. The occupant of the
berth thus rudely intruded upon awoke
with start, and screamed. The husband

his wife, awakened by the noise, discover

voice in lamentation, heaping reproaches
upon her faithless spouse. Then the pass

The accomplishments of the rocky

when the stupid, phlegmatic nature of The

act performed by both goats is circling
from one horse to another while at full
gallop. The horses run side by side, and
the goat on one places his fore feet on one
pad and hind feet on the other; the other
goat does the same. Tnen they follow

sunnower seeds for Poultry.

Many farmers look upon the sunfiow-
er as simply worthless weed, and never
dream of the valuable qualities the seeds
of this plant possesses. For several years
they have been used by breeders offancy
poultry as a food for choice birds; in small
quantities they are mixed with the other
food, and the peculiar properties or the
no grain will give, to the plumage of the
adult birds. For those who raise fancy
fowls for exhibition, it is essential to per.
feet success that the plumage should be in
perfect condition, and to attain the satisfac-
tory result, we can recommend no more
valuable aid than judjcious feeding of
this seed.

matrimony by Justice Beai dsley, of st.
