A GOOD lubricant for the preservation
of belts is said to be obtained by mix
ing rosin oil with ton per cont. mica.
In the case of new bolt several coat
ings Of this grease are applied with a
brush until 1t absorbS no more. After
this the belt may be used without any
fear Of part Of the lubricant emerging
from it under pressure or tonsion, since
the pores of the leather hold the grease
very firmly and only allow few small
drops to appear on the surface. After
few weeks the operation may be re-
peated OH smaller scale. Some months
may then be allowed to elapse without
greasing the belt, to which by that time
the lubricant has impaired good deal
Of tenaoity and power of resistance. The
belt thus lubrified adhores very well to
the pulleys, and is not affected either by
the changes in the moisture of the at
mosphere or by corrosion.

AGRICULTURE.

MANURlNa INDIAN CORN.-Since farm

been compelled to raise his crops with
as little hand labor as possible if he
would make his receipts exceed his ex-
penditures. The practice of fertillzing
corn i'll the hill, Oh land in good condl-
ton, hes i'll n measure been abandoned,
and the manure has all been spread
broadcast, not because in all cases it
has been thought to secure tho largest
crop, but because tho cost of labor has
been such that it would not pay to put
n portion in the hill. It is true, the ex-
pense of hand dropping concentrated
fertilizers is not very large, but enough
to raise doubt if there will be sufficient
increase Of tho crop to pay it. Much
depends on the condition of the soil. If
the soil is not very rich, either the whole

When it is decided that the soil is not
rich enough to secure vigorous growth
without something in each hill to fertil-

comes up, as 10 what is the best to put
into the hill. If the object is to force
an Immediate growth of leaves and
stalks, care should be taken to use only
such fertilizers as arc in n condition to
