through the grades
of work, beginning
at a $3.50 suit and
going up to sl4.
There arc hut few

Almost everybody
buys between en-

At s. the clothes
begin to be good;
and they grow bet
ter as the price
grows bigger. No.
body need grumble
at what So will buy;
and between S. and
$40, everything is
good enough. You
choose one rather.
than another, be-
cause you like the
cloth or style bet

you may keep on

find the finest OF

with all the care
that is bestowed on

on this as upon any other fruit. We have
seen, fine abundant crops of varieties that
we had long abandoned as next to worth
less, and therefore can speak only as to our
own experience and that of other growers

THE FIRST FEATHERING OF CHICKENS.

! This is the most trying time with chick
ems OF all breeds. If chickens feather rap
idly when very young, as is tile case with
the Golden Pheasant, Black Poland. Gueld-
erland, etc., they are always weakly, how
ever healthy in other respects, from the fact
their food goes to sustain their feathers in
stead of their bodies, and they frequently
langulsh and die from this cause alone; but
If, on the other hand, they feather slowly,
as is the case with the Shanghais, Pride OF
Indies, Plymouth Rocks, Cochin Chinas.
ETC.. the food in early life goes to nourish
and sustain their bodies until they become
more vigorous, and old enough to sustain
the shock of featterng without detriment.
This is the reason why tile fawn-colored
DOrkings are easier raised than others OF
the race-si'nply because they feather more
slowly. This, too, accounts for the extra
ordinary healthiness of the Yankee Game
fowl-tl'ey feather very slowly, and their
long legs, like stilts. carry them above tile
we grass. Chickens which feather rapidly
must be kept perfectly dry and warm, how
ever strange this may appear, or they will
die; while naked chickens as they are call
ed. or those which leather at an advanced
age and very SLOWLY, seldom suffer from
the cold, from The fact that their down is
very warm. and their blood is hotter and
circnlates more rapidly, as their food prin-
cipally goes to blood. and flesh and bones,
and not to feathers.-Dr. Bennett
MANY small fiocks OF poultry are kept
and large profit realized. Often state
ments are made OF the results obtained from,
flock OF twenty-five or thirty hens, show
ing an income Of fro:n one to two dollars or
more for each hen. Looking at such state
mens, some impressionable minds have at
once taken out their pencil aud figured ont
the profit which might be realized from five
hundred TO thousand hens. The showing
Is thus made TO appear so favorable that not
few have been induced to enter upon keep
ing poultry on Il large scale. 1t is scarcely
necessary 10 say that such ventures have
usually proved disastrous failures. It is not
safe to calculate on doing as well proper
tionately ON large focks of fowls as on
smaller ones. As a general rule it is not
safe to venture much beyond flock of fifty
hens even after considerable experience has
been gainel.-Er.

THE NARRAGANsETT TURKEY.

If we except the Bronze turkey, the Mar
ragansett turkey stands at the head of all
varieties now domesticated in this country.
This popular bird originated on the shores
of the bay of that name, and is raised in the
greatest perfection in Rhode Island and
Southern Connecticut, localities no ed in
past years. rs we'll rs at present, for their
fine poultry.
1t is worthy of notice, that in no other
section of this country does turkey raising
receive SO much attention as in these fa.
vored localities.
Although there is standard for the vari-
ETY., yet these fowls are bred for market.
without much regard to nice points of plum
age, as the chief object looked after is size.
However. their prevailing colors are met

FARMERS ACCOUNTS,

There are probably no class of men. SAYS
the New York Observer. who live more
strictly according to their means, and who
more uniformly make both ends meet at the
close of the year, than farmers. But there
are comparatively few who are as STREET in
keeping their accounts as those who are en-
gagged in mercantile Or mechanical business
And yet there is no reason why they should
not be as systematical in recording their in
comes and their ougoes as any others. AS
one OF the least weighty considerations, it
would afford an interesting occupation for
leisure moments and IN Interesting matter
for review at the close of a season or of the
year. But in an economical point of view.
the advantage would be much greater. If
every one who has a farm or garden were
to put down the amount OF his expenses
from day to day, but separately, what he
expends upon particular crop, or upon a
particular field Or tract OF land, be it large
OF small, and on the opposite side OF tile
balance sheet the returns in product and il
money of what he raises; and if this was
done in connection with every crop and each
one OF his fields separately, it would enable
him at glance to determine on what por-
tions of his place, or on what particular
crops, he could lay out his money and his
labor to the best pecuniary advantage.
One OF the chief hinurahces to success in
any branch OF business is a want of system.
and keeping al accurate account of receipts
and expenditures would at once be followed
by systematic results. The winter season
is good time for each one to lay his plans
in this respect; to prepare his books, and SO
be prepared Tor more systematic prosecu-
ton of the work of the year. Those who
have adopted the plan OF keeping the most
minute record of all their operations. have
found it to be not only Il source Of great sat
istaction, but of great profit, and we rec.
ommend the plan to all, whether their bu-
sneSs is on large or a small scale.

THE WHEAT PROSPECT.

wonderful change has come over the
condition of the wheat crop in the past two
weeks. Fields that then seemed scarcely
worth allowing to stand, now promise to
give good crop.
Secretary Chamberlain, IN his report.
shows the prospect for Ohio to be about so
to So per cent. as good as last year. Re-
port iron Indiana, Illinois and the North
western States do not differ SO very materi-
ally, and considering tide increased acreage
put in last fall, it is quite probable that with
favorable weather from this on, the total
yield for this year may not fall very serious
ly behind other years.
Great caution should be exercised on the
part of farmers, however, in reading the re-
ports that will be published during the next
two or three months in our "leading" po-
litical dailies and weeklies. Every effort
will be made to create the impression that
there will be an overyield OF wheat, and to
trighten farmers into selling their wheat at
the first price that may be offered them.
Every case Of a big yield will be reported in
these papers with big head lines. Reports
from localities where the crop is total or
partial failure will be either suppressed Or
put in the smallest type in the most distant
part of the paper.-Cor. Liue Patron.

HERE is some fear manifested on the
part of our people lest the country may be
infested with immigrant grasshoppers this
fall In the natural course Of events. this
seems to be the year for their appearance
again, but we cannot think that they are IL
able to come unanHounced. When most of
the region lying east Of tie Rocky Noun
tains, and west Of the Red River of the
North was uninhabited, hoppers could breed
on these plains unknown to any one, and
make their depredations east or west taking
everything by surprise, but we think there
are too many people scattered over this
area OF cbuntry now for any considerable
number OF hoppers to breed there without
the fact being made generally known before
they become sufficiently tledged to wing
their way to a new field of action, and as
we can hear of no young hoppers iniesting
any region near our settled valleys, we do
not look for immigrants this season.

PRUNING TOMATOES,

Many persons find much profit in pinch
ing back the branches OF the tomatoes, aud
it is Il good practice when judiciou>Iy done.
1t may be overd0ne. however, and injury
result. In the first place it is no use to at
tempt it after the flowers have fallen. The
idea is to force the nourisllinent into the
fruit at the earliest start; tor it is at that
time that the future fate of the fruit is cast.
A few leaves beyond the fruit is an adva,,-
tage. 1t is only tile growth that is to be
checked. And then much damage is done
by taking off the leaves as well as the fruit.
The tomato plant needs all the leaves it can
get. 1t is only the branches that are 10 he
checked in their growth. No one who has
not tried it can have any idea of how valna-
Bile the leaves are to the tomato plant. One
may for experiment take off most of the
of a plant. and he will find the flavor insip.
id, and every way poor. OF course it is the
peculiar acidity of The tomato that gives il
so much value to all OF us; but the acid
from tomato that has ripened ON an insult
ficient amount of foliage, is disagreeable to
most tastes. The same principle has been
found to work in managing grapevnes.
The wan who ju'lcio,t>ly pincheS back the
branches, does well but he who strips off
the foliage to ''let in The sun and The air."

THE Plymouth Rock is superior to any
other fowl for the market. Indeed, for
quick growth it is unexcelled. Having
splendid yellow legs, compact bodies and
closely laid feathers, the Plymouth Rocks
command attention and sale in preference
to any others. As layers they are not de-
iicient, coming fully up to the standard of
any of the sitting breeds, and far above
many of them, and will come nearer to
combining the advantages Of egg-producers
and table birds than either the Leghorns or
