AGRICULTURE
Most Profitable Vegetable Crop.
fEaru,arHa hana1ina

Which is the most profitable crop to
grow ? is q question often asked. The
answer depends on circumstances and
soil climate, capital and labor all must be
considered before deciding. One thing
we wish to impress on farmers is the mis-
take they make in discarding certain veg
etables because they are troublesome to
grow. We must not forget that the easi-
er a crop can be produced the cheaper it
sells, and tho higher the price the greater
the prefit, even when labor is increased.
For instance, if crop be easily pro-
duced on an acre at a cost of $40 which
sells for 800, there would be clear profit
of so for the acre. For two acres the
outlay would be $40 and the profit 800
But if we place the 800 worth of labor on
one acre and derive $40 of profit, the re-
ceipts and expenses of the easy and more
laborious crops would be the same, but
one-half the land will be saved by the
growing of n crop that requires double
labor. If a bushel of corn sells for 81,
and the farmer labors to the value of 70
cents to produce it he is really selling
his labor and not the corn, for the actual
substance taken from the soil by the corn
is but fraction of its value In our large
markets these vegetables that require
care and nice management and much Ia
Dor to produce them bring high prices,
the rates being high because farmers
will not grow them until they feel sure of
not only being reimbursed for the outlay,
but profit must also be the result. On
small farms, where the owner wants more
land because he is idle part of the time,
those crops should be grown that call for
all his labor, as the sales in market will
return good wages for the work. Selling
labor on the farm that would otherwise
be wasted is as important as cultivating,
feeding or ony other part of the manage

Dr. Sturtevant says that potash, wheth.
er In the shape of wood ashes or in the
form of sulphate or muriate, is a special
fertilizer for melons.
About IL, 900 cattle, one for every two

writer says that he has never failed
to cure garget by the use of beans. He
feeds one pint of bean meal, mixed with
other meal, for four successive days, and
has found that quantity sufficient to cure
the worst cases. He thinks if COWS were
fed with bean meal several times a year,
they would never be troubled with gar

or orchard grass, the late Mr.. Stanton
Gould says in his treatise on grasses :
''The testimony that has been collected
from all parts of the world for two centu.
ries past establishes the place Of this spe-
cies among the very best Of forage grasses
and the interests of our graziers and dai-
rymen would be greatly promoted by its
more extended cultivation"
Mr.. 7. Greiner, in the Eaim and Gar
den, says that the easiest and quickest
way to destroy the weeds that generally
start about the time when the potatoes
are up 30 that the rows can be seen plain
", is by thorough use of harrow or drag.
He places great emphasis upon this, and
deems it far mare effective than the culti-
vator and hoe, at less expense.
As to fertilizers, there is nothing equal
to wood ashes, says Hiram Sibley, and
they should be sown broadcast immedi-
ately after planting corn, or applied lib
orally about the plants as soon as they
are up. Corn is potash plant, but re-
quires the phosphates. Fertilizers
ahould be sought which contain both, and
when sown broadcast they may be used
unsparingly with profit
