JOKES AND FRANKS.
No very huge joke has been chronicled
at The expense of an particular person.
although the trivial and time honored
tricks of placing hats filed with rocks
and leaving pocket books upon
the sidewalks was not totally neglected By
those who indulge 10 that kind of sport.
The observance of the day is gradually
diving out. and would soon. become obsolete

? ITS ANTIQUITY.
The practice OF perpetrating harmless
jokes on the First of April is so ancient
that to use a legal expi essioD, "ths mem
DRY of man runneth not to The contrary"
This custom. which originally consisted in
sending q person upon bootless errsnd,
is by some considered q trayesty of the
sending hither and thither Of the Savior
from Hannas to Caiphas. and from Plate
to Herod. The reason for thus ascribing it's
source is due TO the fact that during the
middle ages this scene 10 Christ's life was
made the subject of miracle played at
Easter, which occurs in the month Of
April
HEATHEN RELIC.
Others contend that the custom is q
relic of some heather festival. Il is
curious fact that the Hindus practice
similar tricks on the 3lst Of
March, when they hold what 10 called the
Hull festival. The custom. whatever its
origin, appears to'be general athroughout

MANURE.

Manure, the key to successful
farming over the larger part Of the
country, demands attention. Per-
haps in no one item of farm prac-
tice has there been greater
change than in that Of the manage
ment of manure. Formerly it was
thought that manure should only
be brought to the field just as it
Is to be used. Now it is taken out
when carting or shedding is good,
and the hands and teams are not
pressed with other work. By haul
ing it in winter, and placing it in
heaps near to where it Will be
needed in the spring, it gets the
benefit of an extra turning, and, if
desirable, these heaps may be again
turned before they are spread. OF
course some forethought must be
taken to put the manure in the
manure in the most convenient
place for the after labor distribu-
ting it. Whatever else is done with
manure, let it be kept in compact
heaps to scatter over the whole
barnyard that which should only
cover an area of few square yards
is wicked waste. After the winter
rains have washed out the soluble
matter from the scattered manure
(often it runs to the nearest creek
what remains is of little value. 1t
would be far better were the ma
nure upon the field where its wash
!ngs would be utilized. One fact
nas been often repeated in these
columns but our correspondence
shows that it is not everywhere un,
lerstood, which is-the quality OF
The manure depends upon the quail.
ity of the food. The animal adds
nothing to what is fed to 1t; it
takes on something, but leaves the
refuse, which it does not want, but
the soil does in an available form.
The old adage, "out of nothing,
nothing comes, is commended to
those who think they can make a
large quantity of rich manure out
of q little poor food.

TRANSMITTING.

In ORDER to insure plants against
whiting. when transplanted, they
may be grown, says the Ne'o En-
gland Farmer, in pots, but this in
wolves good deal of expense and
q simpler method is in use among
the gardeners for moving such ten
der plants as cucumbers, melons.
summer squashes, Lima beans, &c.
The plants are pricked ont under
glass, in groups of four plants eacb'
the hills being nine inches square,
or thirty-two to sash. When
grown so as to require transplant
ing, which will be in about two
weeks, or by the time they begin to
run, have the ground ready for
them, and wet them down we'll
over night so that the earth will
cling to the roots. Have ready a
few square rings of sheet zinc,
nine inches square made by folding
a strip Of zinc three inches vide and
three feet, long, into nine inch
square prism, without top or bot
tom, and soldering the edges to-
gether. Take a ring and press it
down into the earth around one OF
the hills then run spade under
it, and lift the hill, ring and all, on
the spade, and carry it to its dest-
nation, where a hole is made with
hoe to receive it; place the cluster
Of plants on the spade in the hole,
draw the earth around the ring
and remove first the spade, then
the ring, and the work is complete.
These tender plants cannot be
transplanted safely to the open
field much before June 10. But
cucumbers are transplanted thus
under glass whenever the glass is
ready for them. II transplanting
vines choose a hot day, and avoid
rainy, cold weather. If well moist
ened before transplanting, and
carefully handled, they will not wilt
much, but may need little shade
for few days. The transplant
il 6 OF celery, cabbage and caul-
flower plants is simple and easy
enough in the cool, moist weather
of early spring, but in the hot
weather of midsummer, requires
some skill. Much depends in hav-
.ing the land in which the plants
are to be set thoroughly fine; if
coarse Or lumpy it is much more
likely to dry up and destroy the
plants. Choose, ifpossible, a cloudy
day after rain, but if this cant be
be, done, and if the weather is dry
and hot, the plants must be water
ed. Keep the roots wet while set
ting them, and water every day till
they grow or till rain comes. This
is laborious work, where large
fields are set, but is often the only
way to be sure of a crop. TO make
the earth fine for setting plants it
may be thrown into drills with a
plough and then raked down or, If
it is desirable to set the plants low,
as in the case of celery and caull-
flowers, the rows are marked first
with the wheel marker and the
spots where the plants are to be
set made fine by chopping with
hoe.

Hogs require free access to water
in the summer time. If they can
have a place to bathe or wallow in,
it is beneficial to them, as it cools
and cleanses the skin. Mud is

baths have been found useful as
medicinal treatment for sick peo-
