HOUSE, FARM AND GARDEN.
For Our Farmers.


Corn does not succeed we'll after buck
wheat
brakes are quarrelsome, the fewer on
hand the better.
Water filtered through charcoal be-
comes perfectly pure.
Oak is stronger than iron, both pieces
being of equal weight.
Poor cows are dear at any price;
really good ones, if young, are never sold
too high. A COW should give at least
$50 worth of milk year.
1t Is well for farmers to bear in mind
that the average for all breeds of cows is
about six pounds of hay, or its equiva-
lent, for one quart of milk.
The Agricultural Department is in
formed that the codling moth is making
such ravages among the orchards of
California as threaten the destruction of
all the apple trees on the Pacific coast.
AT recent agricultural gathering in
New England, one claimed that he
made II per cent. on his capital invested
in farming, and another said he did not
make over II per cent.

ca From statistics furnished the De-
partment of Agriculture, the total wheat
crop of the United States for 1880, is
given at sO,s49, ,72S bushels, being an in
crease of over 92,OOO,OOO bushels COM
pared with the former year. Illinois
produced the largest crop, which was
53,767 200 bushels (; California is second
on the list with 45 ,760, 900 bushels; Min
nesota comes next with 4O,752 900, and
is followed by Indiana with 8S, ,341 300
bushels. Pennsylvania measures out
22,299 900 bushels, being decrease of
sl57 bushels compared with 1879; New
York, New Jersey and Ohio all produc-
ed considerably smaller crops last year
than in 1879, indicating that in these
States the crop fell off last year as was
anticipated.

ca A very simple remedy--and said
to be effective-to rid canary birds of
mites, is to place clean white cloth over
the cage at night. The vermin leave the
bird and gather upon the cloth. They
are very small, red, and scarcely dis
cernible with the naked eye.

"a" A farmer who owns forty-seven
head of hornless cattle gives in The
Western RurdI his reasons for preferring
them. He says:
First, they are about as harmless as
a flock of sheep second sheep, colts and
horses can run in the same pasture or
yard and drink out of the same tank
with safety third, it is sometimes me-
cessary to milk in storm, and I have
only to open the COW stable door and
twelve cows will not take more room
than three pairs of horns fourth,
straw rick two rods long and twenty
feet wide will make first-rate shelter
for thirty head of young muley stock,
for they will soon have rick shelved all
around, and lie down like so many hogs
and be comfortable under the edges of
the stock, while six pair of horns could
hardly be accommodated on the same
territory. i never have had my horses
wounded, or colts, sheep, calves, chill
dren, women or men tossed upon muley
bulls horns. My stock are descend
ants of the old English red muley breed.

Horse Shoes Kept on too Long.

There seems to be no doubt that this
causes more injury to the feet of horse
than anything else; for as soon as the
shoe is fastened on double action be-
gins, as his hoof grows down and press
es against the shoe, and the shoe is ham,
mered forcibly up against the hoof every
time the foot is set on the ground after
being raised. This makes the double
action which is so apt to prove injurious.
To obviate this, it becomes necessary to
have the shoe fit nicely and easily at all
times to the horses foot. TO insure this,
it should be taken off and reset about
once fortnight; and in doing so, care
should be taxed to first file off the
clinching part of the nails outside of the
hoof, so they cannot make large holes or
tear the hoof when withdrawn.
Some persons let shoes remain on the
horse two, or three months. Nothing
can be more injurious to keeping up
sound, good foot than this. The change
of twice month or so, allows the foot
to expand, and keeps it in a healthy,
natural FORM Rural NeaO Yorker.

Woman. Wife. Mother.

Great, indeed, is the task ASST gned to wO-
man. Who can elevate its dignity? Not to
make laws, not to lead armies, not TO govern
enterprises, but to form those by whom laws
are made, armies are led, empires are gov
erned. To guard against the slightest faint
of bodily infrmity the frail yet spotless crea-
ture whose moral no less than physical be-
ing must be derived from her; to inspire
those principles, to inculcate those doctrines,
to animate those sentiments which genera
tions yet unborn and nations yet uncivilized
shall learn to bless; to soften firmness into
mercy, and chasten honor into refinement ;
to exalt generosity into virtue, and by sooth-
ing care to allay the anguish of the mind !;
by her tenderness to disarm passion; by her
purity to triumph over sense; to cheer the
scholar sinking under his toll; to be COM
pensation for friends that are perfdious for
happiness that has passed away such is her
vocation. The couch of the tortured sufferer,
the prison of the deserted friend; the cross
OF the rejected Savior-these are the thea
tres in which her greatest triumphs have
been achieved. Such is her destiny; to visit
the torsaken; to attend the neglected; when
monarchs abandon, when counselOrs betray;
when justice prOsecutes, when brethren and
disciples flee, to remain unshaken and un-
changed, and to exhibit in this lower world
a type of that love pure, constant and ineffa-
BILE, which in another world we are taught to
believe is a test of virtue.-BldckWO0d's Mag
dzine.
