"Rutland' wishes TO know if the cutting
Of Two crops OF grass in a year FROM a
moving field does not exhaust that field,
and if it would not be better TO allow the
second crop to remain and die down upon
the soil?
In the first place would say that we
do not carry on farming here for the priv
ilege of improving our soils. We do it in
order to live ard support our families
Every time we take off any crop and do
not return its equivalent to the same field,
we are theoretically supposed to be ex,
hausting the fertility of that field. say
theoretically, for many times the farmer
will find that certain crops appear to
leave the land in better condition than
before the crop was grown. though no
manure has been applied.
| have now in my mind Il story told
me by a farmer in lymouth county, who
had small field at a distance from his
barn where he did not wish To draw the
manure. He began by planting corn
thereon, without manure or fertilizer, and
then hoeing in rye between the rows of
corn at last hoeing. The rye stubble and
weeds were plowed in and corn planted
tlIlo Soui 80 iOi opibC
ten or twelve years he found that he was
obtaining about sixty bushels of ears of
corn per acre, where at first he only got
about twenty. The yield of rye also
increased in about the same proportion.
In this case the increase in fertility was
due only to the stirring of the soil, and
the chemical changes produced by that
and by the decay of the corn roots and
rye stubble.
But to return to Rutland's question ::
Those who claim to be scientific farmers,
or scientists in farming operations, say
that the allowing Of crop TO mature and
rlpen its seed exhausts the plant food in
the soil much more than cutting or
harvesting it before the seed had formed.
The decay of the growth upon the soil
may make up for this in some measure.
but as topdressing for my grass lands, |
would rather have the manure made by
the cattle or horses, while they are eating
the hay, than to have the hay Itself, or
would rather have the amount of artificial
fertilizer which | could buy of any re.
spon>ible concern for the price of the hay
So say, rs have often said before lc
Rutland and other journal readers, cut
yoll first crop early, while the grass i.
young and rich with Juices, and then i
20 have second crop that is either
worth cutting or feeding down, get tn,
ben fit of it, and if you make any money
by 50 doing, do not invest 1t in more land
but return II proper share to that field.
D. not try to live solely for the purpose
of improving YOUR soil, that it may hell

tage of half the time, for they grow nights
when the farmer sleeps. 1t won, do to
neglect them though the haying is coming

the neglect. If one cannot spend the
time to go through the field with the hoe
it will still do great good to run the cult,

between the rows. Our corn and potatoes
have had their second course of the
cultivator, and with this warm, wet
weather will soon need it again, though
the land where we used phosphate only
is not nearly as weedy as where the stable
manure was applied.

GIVING YOUNG COLTS A SrART.-Cross
ing to secure size has done much towards
c. eating certain kinds of horse stock that
ale greatly larger than the stock flom
which they originated. But this could
never have been accomplished had not this
breeding for size been practlced by men
who fed well from the start; acting upon
the trucism that light feeding gives scant
growth. While it is not expected that any
man will attempt TO secure a growth of
twelve hundred pounds on any animal
bred to have only ten hundred and fifty,

metry of such a horse depends largely
upon his muscular growth having been
pushed 10 a reasonable limit during the |

A RAINY EVENING.
The twilight shadows darklinR fall:
memories dear! against thy thrall
My heart strives all In vain,
Yet wherefore strive against my mood?
cannot silence. If would.
The softly falling rain.
At such an hour, on such an eve.
Bright hopes. that yet inly grieve,
Sprang up to fade and wane.
All. never more. hand clasped In hand,
Shall we within the doorway stand,
And watch the falling rain.
Yet still the sweetness of that hour
returns with all its wonted power
Of mingled Joy and pain.
When. dropping down from window-eaves,
Or gently falling on the leaves.
hear the summer rain.
cruel memory! thus to brins
That glad brief hour, with liter sting.
Back to my heart again;
Those parting words of fond regret;
With glad pretext. love lingering yet,
Unmindful of the rain.
All! brief indeed poor aching heart.
The Joy those tickle hopes impart:
Grief follows in their train.
Nay, nay. my heart; take upward wing.
o cruel memory! thy sting
Shall vanish with the rain.
Though sadder seems the song trill
Yet sorrow, with its plaintiye thrill
Adds sweetness to the strain;
As fragrant perfumes softly flow
From hawthorn blossoms bending low.
Beat down by wind and rain.

The foes of female education seem to be
of its own household. That male collegi-
ans ALWAYS know more than the faculty is
a conceded thing, but that the female
collesian is similarly learned and profound
is not generally known, and the Spectacle
afforded by several girls standing in a
row and instructing their teachers as to
the way in which they should be taught is
unpleasant, TO say the least. There is no
law compelling young woman to go to
Vassar or to stay there if she finds that
the institution is not conducted in man
ner satisfactory TO her, and if she does
not like the place she is fee 10 leave it
without making an exhibition of oonceit.

For the Freeman
Farm Notes.

The past cold winter ought TO teach
farmers the Importance of warm stables
In such cold seasons hay is scarce and
high, feed costs more as the season ad-
vances, and the farmer who has warm
stables saves many dollar in the lessened
cost of keeping his stock. Of course
there are many who have built barns in
the modern, economical style who need
no exhortations in regard to warm stables
But there are many stables where the
manure freezes when the thermometer
gets down to zero or little below. The
cold winds blow in upon the cattle, re-
quiring large amount more food to keep
up the animal heat. 1t would pay any
farmer having such stable to make
it warm and comfortable. In many cases
the feed saved in one such season as the
past would more than balance the eX-
pense. A good way to make cold stable
warm is to put up lining of thin boards,
about four inches from the outside board
ing. A poor quality of lumber may be
used for this purpose and the space between
should be filled with cEaff cut straw, fine
shavings or some such substance which
will exclude the cold. The doors and
windows need special attention to see
that they fit closely, and strips of old
cloth may be tucked in where there are
cracks. Then if the barn is an old
fashioned one, the side of the stable next
the floor should be boarded up loosely at
least, and wide board hung on leather
hinges and fastened up with a wooden
button, is inexpensive and helps a great
deal in keeping Il stable warm.
A stable may be too close 1t will be
unhealthy for the cattle kept in it, and, if
COW stable is too close, the milk will
absorb the bad orders. In the latter case
the stable might be ''aired" a few minutes
before milking, but far better plan is to
secure sufficient ventilation so as to sup.
ply the stable constantly with pure air.
Often one can go into stable, milk a
COW and carry the milk out as soon as
drawn without its receiving any injury,
while if it remained longer it would ac
quire bad odor. (What would be the
effect on the cows living in such an at
mosphere that it would injure milk to
stand in it a few minutes?-ED)
