Agricultural,
Implement TriaIs.

Public trials Of farm implements have been
held this spring at various points. One which
recently took place ut the farm Of George T..
Loring. under the auspices Of the Essex coun-
ty Mass agricultural society. Is worthy Of
notice because no premiums were given nor
awards made The implements were shown
in operation, that farmers. seeing their work
might be able TO Judge for themseves. A
large number Of implements were on exhibit
ton and the agricultural warehouses Of New
England were mostly represented The only
reward Of the exhibitors was the reputation
Of their implements according to the merit Of
the work performed each farmer Judging for
himself The result was more satisfactory
than whom awards are made, as one never
knows in such cases how incompetent the
committee may have been or what motives
may have influenced them. 1t is not enough
TO know that a pillow or any other implement
has won q dozen first premiums at as many
different fairs; it may be an inferior tool for
all that A few years ago one Of the most
clumsy il-coustructed plows ever invented
was given q high-sounding name, extensively
advertised and pulled, recommended by scores
Of agricultural writers, some Of whom had
probably never held pillow. awarded medals
and premiums. ard sold in great number at
about three times the cost of manufacturing
All these plows arc now thrown aside.
If we could have implement trials like that
held on Commissioner Loring's farm come
within the reach Of more farmers, it would
tend to introduce new tools and farm machin-
cry Of merit, and save farmers from buying
such implements as the pillow we have describ
ed. Perhaps our county agricultural society
might take a useful hint from the success Of
this trial, and invite manufacturers OF agri-
cultural implements, and others interested in
their sale, to test them at some convenient
point in this county. The New England
Farmer, in commenting on the exhibition at
DR.. Loring's farm, which was attended by
about GOO farmers, says that it adds another
proof TO the few similar previous ones. at our
own farm and elsewhere that good exhibit

the feeling Of all that such a trial is far more

trials will be more frequent in the future than
in the past. 1t was just such holiday as
farmers need more of. good many tools

desired, while il stable, yard, or pasture,
they would escape various diseases and be
more thrifty and useful than when deprived
of it, or even given irregularly. Swine and
poultry are better for having o little pure
brine mixed up with their food Since we
have made this a regular practice, we have
never lost an animal from disease of any kind
and only a few fowls, and these latter would
not have become sick had they not unfortu-

they picked out bits Of decomposng bread

skinned WIN for Hen. ana Chicken

There is nothing better for laying hens in
the spring than milk, after the cream has
been taken Of We have tried it several sea
sons with complete success. With the milk
given fresh from the dairy room every day,
the fowls will need no other drink, and it will
supply everything required in the way Of an
imal food. The pullets fed with milk and
corn. and a mixture Of corn meal and milk,
through the cold weather, have given an
abundant supply of eggs. Wheat bran is al
so a good article to mix with the milk. It is
better to give the mixture a boiling and to
feed il in the warm state, but this is not nee
essnry. We have also found the milk one Of
the best kinds OF diet for young chickens,
soon after they come from the nest, to pro-
mote their health and rapid growth Indian
meal, ground coarse, and scalded with milk,
is q perfect feed for them. As they grow
older, grass, cabbage, or onions may be chop
ped fine aud added to the daily rations. A
portion of the milk on dairy farms usually
going to the pig trough, may be diverted to
the chicken coop with great advantage. Eggs
are worth twenty five cents a dozen, aud
poultry twenty cents a pound, when pork
brings but ten cents a pound. Am. Agrt.
