Farm Contracts.

Most of the difficulties existing be-
tween farmers and their hired help
arise from confused ideas as to the re-
spective rights of each. The safe rule
and only one Of az. universal kGH
whichever party violates the contract
forfeis all rights under it. Not unfre-
quently the employe who has contracted
to work six or eight months, is enticed
away at the beginning of harvest by
higher wages. Sometimes after the
hnrrying work is over tire employer
seeks a pretext for discharging help
which he cannot proftably employ. In
either case the party violating the con-
tract forfeits all claims under it and
becomes liable for damages beside, if he
he responsible party, from whom
damages can be collected. A common
idea prevalent among working men is
that whenever they break contract
they can recover for the value of work
already performed under it. In Other
words, ii he hires for seven months, and
quits without Just cause at the end o.
three, the uniformed laborer expects
he can recover for his three months
service. This is mistake. 1t is {
question with the employer whether
under some circumstances he had not
better forego his legal rights, but Of
those rights there is no doubt whatever
In such case the help must, of course
leave without Just cause, otherwise 1t Il
the employer who has broken the con
tract, and his liability would be to thu
full extent. II a farmer discharges
help before their time Is up without jus
canse. he is liable not only for the tim,
worked, but for whatever the dis
charged hand is damaged from being
thrown out of employment.

Influence Of Food on Butter and MI Tx

Prof Sheldon, in recent lecture at
South Kensingion, Eng, said that the
proportion of butter in milk was much
more easily influenced by changes of
food than was the proportion of ceseine
so that it followed that the heterogeneous
was more constant than the non-nitro-
genous matter. On the Derbyshire
hills il was a common saying "the poor
est land makes the best cheese" Par
adoxically as this might be, it was
absolutely true; although it assumed
that the poor land was sound, that is,
that it required no artificial drainage.
Cheese produced upon such land as
this, if properly made, would be better
than that produced upon richer soil.
The quantity per acre was less, but the
quantity was superior. The reason of
this was supposed to be that the grass
grown on rich land contained a much
larger proportion of the elements that
went to form fat, while that grown on
poor land contained large proportion
of the elements which went to form
flesh, from the latter of which cheese
was made. Another consideration was
that il was a much simpler aud easier
thing to make good cheese on sound
poor land than upon rich land.

Grape culture on the Pacific coast is
rapidly assuming important proper
tons. 1t is estimated that there are
40 200, 900 vines, or about G0,000 acres
under cultivation. In 1880, the value
of the California raisin crop is stated at
500, 900, and il is said that the sale OF
the grapes for table nse yielded $780,
O00 The same year there were 49,
900, 900 gallons of wine produced, and
100000 gallons of brandy were manu-
featured. Besides the land already
used for grape culture it is said that
there are 10000 acres OF unsurveyed
land in California suitable therefor. II
is to be hoped that the business of wine
and brandy making may not be extend
ed. Indeed, with vigorous temper
ance movement already inaugurated, il
is only question of time when Califor-
MIA will fall into line with Kansas and
Iowa, and declare all traffic in, or man.
ufacture of intoxicating liquors for
drinking purposes unlawful. But
grapes Tor raisins and for table use
may still be cultivated TO an unlimited
extent with profit both to the produ-
GERS and the general public.
besides all that can be eaten in the
natural state or dried as raisins, grape
Juice can be made into excellent jelly,
or into syrup to be mixed with water
when Oh ank, or into unfermented wine
free from alcohol.

Caution to Shepherds.

a not uncommon error into which
many shepherds are led, is the effort to
economize in the item of cured feed
during the later fall season. The pres
ent unusually favorable weather offers a
more than average temptation to con-
fine the flock to pasture grazing, to the
exclusion of the grain allowance that
under less favorable conditions would
be recognized as indispensable. The
fact that sheep will "get along" on
grass, so long as it is not covered with
snow or all nutriment frozen out of it,
should not be mistaken as conclusive
of the economy of restricting them to
such diet. In those localities where the
rigors of winter compel the owner to
feed his flock through several months,
experience has taught the moro obser-
want that at no period of the feeding
season does liberal ration "count" for
so much as during the time when it
laps over the fall pasturage of such sea-
sons as the present. By such a policy
immunity Is secured from inconveni-
ences, and sometimes serious damages,
that result by the sudden change from
pasture to barnyard feeding, that is
made necessary by the advent of some

overtake the shepherd more annoying
than the experiences with flock sud-
denly driven from the pasture, while
unacc lstomed to food and habits of
winter life. The shyer members stand
aloof, while others gorge to their detri-
ment, thus adding the care for sick
animals to round of labor already re-
plele with annoyanccs. The shepherd
first exposed to such an experience is
to be commiserated. The one who is
the second time Il victim, has learned
too little from experience to encourage
hope for success in my undertaking to
which he may devote himself.
