Salt as q Fertilizer,

II want to know how to use salt as fer
tilizer. in what quantities, and how applied.
Is salt that has been used in preserving
meat of any use as a fertilizer And what
kind of land is salt best adapted toy'
Your question suggests another, i. e.,
90 what extent is common salt ferti
lizer, or food of plants ?" That the soil is
often improved by free application of salt is
scarcely TO be denied, but this is far from
proving that salt is in itself fertilizer.
More than century ago il74S) Brownrigg,
an English writer on the art of makinff salt,
declared that the soil of the whole kingdom
might be made rich by the applications oi
salt, but in practice it was found that in
many Instances the application of this sub
stance had no apparent effect. Lime may
be placed in tine same list with salt, an in
different fertilizer of itself, but, acting upon
matter in the soil, it increases fertility. Salt
destroys vermin in the soil and their Sodie.
are dissolved and become food for plants II
also furnishes a small quantity of soda
II converts many noxious and refractory
bodies in the soil into principles of nu rticn
aud thereby stimulates aud accelerates iht
secretions OF growing plants. Lands near
the sea coast are less likely to be benefited by
salt than those inland and position and the
condition of the soil should always be taken
into consideration in using salt as a fsrtll
ger. The usual cd of application is to
broadcast, If over grain in The fall or esrly
spring, at the rate OF six to eight bu hell
per acre but If before the crop is put in,
then double this quantity may be applied
with safety and often with benefit. Old salt
from pork and beef barrels, or that used in
sailing fresh hides, is as good aud sometimes
much better than the new and clean. We
would advise all to try salt on small scale
at first, as no one can tell in advance of its
use just what the effect ON the land or the
growing crops. Some farmers find salt
very cheap and valuable fertilizer, others
just the reverse all probably owing to diff
ference in soil aud locality. York

Shade and Shelter for Stock.

1t IA no use VIXEN the cnld north wind is
bowling through the crevices of the stable,
or the broiling sun is roasting the miser-
able hy plagued cattle, to say that we
wished we had planted something 10 make
things more comfortable, unless we attend
TO soch things now. II is really surprising
to note how many miserable places there
are in the county which few dollars or
a few hours at this season would make
quite pleasant. A few Norway or sugar
naples, spruces, cherry trees or willows,
planted around lsildines, cost very little
aud yet help wonderfully to make winter
pass pleasantly away.
In regard TO cattle in the summer time
few shade trees are positive luxury. 1t
Is real pleasure TO STE the cows lying un'
der the shade, after having perhaps just
passed some in the vicinity roasted and
fyed 10 death in the open field. 1t is,
however, not SO easy to provide Tor this a.
it is to shelter ones buildings. A tree in
IN the middle Of a pasture field is all very
well while it is in pasture but no good
farmer has any faith in these days in per-
manent pastures, and when the time comes
for grain or root crops in that piece OF
ground there is no greater nuisance than
to have trees about. 1t iuterferes with
the blowing, and then it robs the ground I
food. 1t is astonishing what an extent a
r,ot will push in search of food when the
tree to which it is attached stands in OPEL
ground. Sul there are generally odd cor
ners where trees may be left to advantage
especially wet place perhaps near spring
where a willow would grow, which might
as well be planted with something al
not.
IL is not always necessary TO send long
dstance to nursery for trees, though Il
does no harm to patronize those public
benetactors, the nurserymen, when one car
afford to do so; but even these good people
do not object to others planting anything
they can get for nothing rather than TO have
them not plant at all. Trees from the wood'
if any are at command, can be made to d,
tolerAbly if care be taken in planting; ano
if they be severely pruued at planting anC
in the case of the willow and the poplar
large branches, if divested of the small twig.
and made like stakes, grow as well withou
as with roots.

Feeding the Grape Vine.


Many of the old writers dwelt
strongly on the necessity of highly
manuring for the best success with
the grape vine; and it came at last, with
growers, to be regarded as a sort of an es-
sentisl to good luck that some dead carcass
should be buried nesra grape vine root.
Most of us feel badly when a valuable horse
or COW dies but to the old gardner the
case was rather providential than otherwise,
as it gave the much needed food for the grape
vine.
vi course this was extravaganza, and be
cause 1t was extravaganza, the opposite idea
took root, that the grape did best in poor
soil. We have seen it repeatedly urged late
ly, that much of the ill success with the
grape vine arises frors rich soil. Other wr.
ters who have perhaps never owned vine
in their lives, but have merely seen how
they grow from excursion car windows, have
taken the cue, and tell US that in tho wes-
tern part of Pennsylvania, and "the hills
along the Rhine." the poorest places where
y nothing else will grow, are the ones espec.
ally devoted to grape culture. eknow moth.
ing of "the bills along the Rhine;" but we do
know that real practical men, who have tx.
amiae dinto grape culture there, tell us that
manure is continuously and laborously car.
ried up in baskets on the shoulders of wom-
en- to these Rhine vines, and without these
continuous enrichments, vine culture there
would be failure. As TO-. the hills in the
western part of the state, they may be dry
aud poor looking, yet everybody knows they
are composed OF about the richest soil in the
United States.
That vines often fail in rich land every
body knows, and yet not because OF the rich
land, but on account of their troubles about
which the learned doctors have not finally
agreed, Some insist mildew is the sole cause
others contend that it is an insect called
phyloxera, which attacks the roots, while
Others are equally sure it is something in the
climate or its changes. We do not pretend
to settle the delicate subjects, but are quite
sure that if these vines are healthy, high.
feeding is'not at all opposed to their taste
They are genuine bon vvants, aud rarely
know when they have too much of good
thing.

The rights of the people are at stake,
