GENERAL AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

Common salt is special manure for
asparagus beds when used with rich
barnyard compost.
Encourage little vrens by building
suitable boxes for them. They are in
valuable as insect destroyers.
Orchard grass is very early in growth,
and furnishes good hay. It starts out
fresh Immediately after each moving.
The best time 10 prune trees IS IN
June, when the sap Is active and the
leaves will protect the sores made by
the saw from the heat Of the sun.
The best of the Jerseys are being
brought to this country. 1t would not
be q surprise if the Jersey breeders re-
sorted to US for cattle after we have fur,
ther improved them.
Red raspberries should be set two
feet apart in rows, and when kept well
worked the first year they will fill up
and form a continuous hedge Of plants
good for ten years or more.
To prevent sows from crushing their
Young, nal a board about one foot wide
to the side Of the pen. The board is to
be put on like a shelf so that the little
pigs can run under it to get out Of the
way.
Test your onion seeds by placing lit
tie in moist sand, cotton or moss IN a
warmish room. If fresh, it will soon
in about three days sProut. Onion
seed should not be more than / year
old.
Certain varieties Of cyergreens, such
as arbor Yite, are furnished with a thick
mass Of roots. These should be cut
away somewhat, in order to admit Of
close contact Of the soil around the bas-
Of the plants.

Soft coal ashes are used to prevent the
rayages Of the currant worm. They are
scattered thickly around the currant
and gDOscberry bushes, care being taken
to keep the bushes we'll supplied with
them as long as there Is danger.

jury to the spine and the more delicate
anatomy of the body. Let those who
are willing to give the experiment

materially to their health and pleasure,

themselves with boots broad enough to

Try 10 acquire habit of walking from
the hips-I had almost said from the
shoulders, which is really the true way-
The foot should be lifted not higher
than is necessary to allow it to swing
easily forward, and the knees should
bend just as little as need be to permit |
that swing. Never go from a warm |
room into cold air and start suddenly
into rapid walk, and never walk faster |
than can be done with closed mouth. |
The breathing should be done in long, /
slow respirations through the nose, as
regular as possible. A habit of long
regular respiration can be acquired, and /
it prevents the lungs being subject to too
sudden changes of temperature.
Let there be nothing tight around the |
waist, nothing to hinder the lungs from
and the blood from circu-
lating freely. Let the skirts be moder-
ately short, and made so as to leave the
limbs freedom of movement. In short,
give the body from top to toe its freedom
during the walk. Do not walk rapidly

gradually increase the pace until it is

calves two of each) a few days ago.
Though they are the common scrub
stock, YET if he had told US they wer Jer-
seys or Durham he may have made US
believe it, so fine an appearance did they
present. And the secret of the whole
matter is, be had provided for them good

but that by proper pains and attention
our common stock may be made to com

in appearance but in the yield of milk
and butter.

An Agricultural Curiosity.

Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer.
There is a curiosity on lower Ogle-
thorpe street that has attracted consid
cradle attention from the residents of
that section. 1t is a china tree that
grew up very tall. Several years ago
the top was taken off, leaving the main
trunk of the tree about twenty feet
high. On the top it has become some
what deeayed, but is making up for lost
life by supporting young forest. There
are several different shrubs growing out
from it, among others an evergreen
three or four feet in hight, black ber-
~ bush which has put on leaves and
and a water-oak which is about
two inches in circumference. We are
told that there are several other trees of
the kind in that part of the city.
