style In Farming.

There is such q thing as style IN
farming, regardless of economy and
good sense. There is such q thing as
neighbors p~racticing opposite styles,
unconscious ofthoir good or bad exam
pie. We have a in point. In q
town not far distant Is a hill, overlook
ing q beautiful meadow, owned by diff
ferent parties. It is the time of rye
harvest, and your correspondent is on
the eminence swinging his grain era
die, raking and binding sheaves, stock
ing grain and %mcditating generally on
things below. In the meadow two
farmers are seen engaged in haying,
One starts the mowing-machine in the
fresh and early morning and cuts a
large piece by ten O'Clock. After q
short respite one of the horses is put
on to the hay-tedder, and by a vigorous
use Of that and the horse-rake, some
of the ripest and thinnest grass is made
ready to cart before dinner. All this
is done noiselessly and single-handed.
In the afternoon two men appear ON
the scene, and before night-fall nearly
all the hay moved in the forenoon is
rakod aud carted homeward, while
some of the greenest is cooked up for
removal before dinner the next day. So
the haying proceeds rapidly, quietly
and economically of time and help.
The other farmer takes things mod
erately and as he doubtless thinks more
easily. He starts his moving machine
in the middle OF the forenoon and does
his heaviest work in the hottest part Of
the day. He gets so exhausted by the
heat that he has no energy in reserve
for handling the hay, and so he lets it
lie, sometimes two and three DAYS. be-
fore carting it from the field. He
claims that the hay is better for being
bone dry and that bleaching il is no
detriment. This man makes hay all
summer, and drags through dog days
as best he can, but tired all the time.
Both these men have hay to feed and
sell, and botn ask the same market
price for their surplus hay, and both are
classed as farmers.
There is little question which pays
the best. In the good old times when
words were fewer and more expressive,
a farmer was called n husbandman, and
the meaning of huebandry was frugali-
ty, economy and thrift. A husband
nan was a mated-man, and one who
possessed and saved things. A thrift
less h~usbandman was rs much q misno-
mer as q wifeless one. There is a great
deal of tagging and fancy farming now
a-days that won't stand the tests of
common sense and a fair balance sheet.
"In all labor there is profit said the
wise King of Jerusalem, and useful ag-
ricultural labor wisely directed is prob
ably no exception to this rule. The
style of profit is a pretty good style for
any kind of business, and particularly
for farming. -Springfetd (hdss.) Re

A Remedy for the Gad.Fly.

Mr., Serene Z. Todd, who has been
considering the ways of the OestrHs
bovis or gad-hy for more than forty
years, sends to the Rural Nct0 Yorker
the following suggestion as to the best
mode of getting rid of them.
The cheapest and most effectual
remedy Is TO provide a rough rubbing
or scratching pole for cattle. Then, as
oon as an insect, whether il is the
laryal, chrysalid or fly transformation,
begins TO emerge from the back of an
animal, it will be crushed. If cattle are
properly earded, every insect, as o
as II thrusts its head above the surface
of the skin, will be ~lacerated by the
teeth of the card. As soon as the grub
or the parent insect has bored a pas
sage up through the skin, the irrita-
zion viii prompt the animal TO scratch
the irritated part Of the body. Then,
if a good r~ubbing-pole has been pro-
vided, not a single insect will ever es-
cape to oViposit eggs in the backs Of
other animals. | have often taken a
glover's needle "a needle having a tri.
point) and thrust the point
through tho skin down into the grubs.

Laying Out Fields by Measure.

Few farmers know the size of their
fields or how many acres they contain.
A field of the writer's, before it came
into his possession, had been plawed
and reaped by contract for fifteen acres.
On measuring it, it was found to have
but twelve acres. IL is desirable, in
fact, indispensable for good work. that
a farmer should know how many acres
each field contains, for otherwise he
cannot apportion seed or manure for it,
nor a he tell how much time il should
require 70 be plowed. A measuring
cord should be part of the furniture OF
every farm. To make one, procure
sixty-seven feet Of strong rope, one inch
around; make a loop or fasten n ring or
a bar at each end, and make these pre-
cisely sixtr-siX feet apart. This is four
rods. Then tie a piece of red rag in
the center. One acre Of ground will be
a piece four of the cords (chains) long
and two and one-half wide, equal 20
sixteen By ten rods. making one hun
dred and sixty square rods, or one acre,
The advantage of the ring or loop is
that one person can measure alone by
driving a stake IN the ground to hold
the rope while he stretches it out. The
rope should be soaked in tar and dried,
which will prevent it from shrinking
when wet.--RaraI New Yorker.
