THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.


The ground is generally put in good
order for planting by blowing and
narrowing. Then the planter is run
over the ground, leaving a wheel track
from n to three inches in depth. A
heavy rain falling soon after planting
will always cause more or less corn to
be drowned or scalded by the water
lying around the plant or seed for a
short time. Now, if instead of leaving
the planter track for a receptacle of
rain, a c~ultivator is used with shield
attached right af.e r the corn planter,
partially filling up tracks and leaving
a low place between the rows, the corr
planted is almost sure to grow and
make a good stand. The corn should
not be planted as deep as if the cult
vator was not used.--P1di1ie Farmer.

Paid in His Own Coin,

A good story is going about the
clubs concerning a New York million
aire who owns a big stock farm in
New Jersey. He has put in force
strict rules about the admittapce of
curiosity-seekers, and if one happens
to get in, he is soon hustled off. The
other day a neighboring farmer called
on business. He had never been on
the place before, and entering at a
gate he found open was strolling
around looking for the superintendent,
when the owner, who happened to be
there, encountered him. Surprising
him to be merely an idler or prying
person he asked him what he was
doing there. The farmer, taken aback
by such an address, replied, moth

the owner, "get out there as soon as
you cam" and the farmer walked out.
Shortly after the superintendent came
up and inquired if neighbor so-and-so
had been there. He was the only one
anywhere about who had timber they
wanted very much, and they wanted it
Immediately. He had promised to
come that morning to see about the
sale of it. "Well," said the owner of
the farm 81 shouldn't wonder if | had

seeing him he began an apology, but
was cut short by the farmer, who in

Poultry Notes.

One bushel of corn will grow as
many pounds of live poultry as it will
pork.
Moderately sailed food does not in
jure fowls as a great many think. Feed
but little salt at first. 1t is an appe-
tiZer.
Milk scalded into curd makes excel
lent food for young chicks. The second
week you can feed cracked wheat or
oatmeal.
The leghorns are great layers during
the greater part of the year, but are
not as fine for table use as some of the
other breeds.
After the chickens are Matched feed
them well and often, and do not allow
them to stop growing until they are
ready for market.
1t is claimel that the Plymouth
Rocks, both as chicks and mature fowls,
are scarcely equaled by any other breed
in respect to hardness.

Healthy Hogs.

Pure air helps to make pure blood,
which, in the course of nature, builds
up healthful lodies. Out-of-door pigs
would not show 50 well at the fairs,
and would probably be passed over by
judges and people who have been taught
to admire only fat and helpless things,
which get the prizes. Such pigs are
well adapted to fill lard kegs, whereas
the standard of perfection should be a
pig which will make the most ham
with the least waste of fat, the Longest
and deepest sides, with the most lean
meat. 1t should have bone eaCugh to
stand up and help itself to food, and
carry with it the evidence of health
and natural development in all its parts.
Pigs which run in a range of pasture
have good appetites-the fresh air and
exercise gives them this-hence they
will eat a great variety of food, and
much coarser than when confined in
pens. Nothing need go to waste on a
farm for need of a market. They will
consume all the refuse fruit, root,
pumpkins, and all kinds of vegetables,
which will make them grow. By ex-
tending the root patch, and planting
the fodder corn thinner, so that nub-
bins will form on it by putting in a
sweet variety, the number of pigs may
be increased in proportion. The. pig
pasture will be ready the next year for
any crop, and ten times the advantage
accrue to the farmer than if the pigs
are confined to close pens, for, as pigs
are usually managed on a farm, but
little manure is ever made from them.

A Big Whale Stery.

The following from the New York
Herald is the biggest whale story of
the season q would swear that we
saw not a hundred, but hundreds
hundreds of whales-genuine sperm
whales. 1t was the most extraordinary
sight | ever beheld. Now, see here 1
am not telling this for the sake of tell
ing a big story, but because believe its
publication may put some whalers on
the track of making something hand
some." The speaker was Captain
Brandburg, of the brig William
Phipps, which arrived from Aux
Cages with a cargo of logwood-a
weather-beaten old tar who IS known
everywhere in New York nautical
circles. The rest of the crew cor
roborated his big story, which is as
follows When about eighty miles
east by south of Cape Henry, the brig
sighted a school of whales. AS they
forged slowly northward the number
kept increasing until the water seemed
| fairly alive with the enormous crea-
lures. For three days the brig had
them in sight, many of them coming
within gunshot Of the vessel and fur
nishing a targ t for the captains rifle,
a species of sport which furnished him
much amusement and did no damage
to the whales. There were literally
several hundred of the whales, which
were of the sperm varieties. They
were TRANQUILITY swimming around in a
circle. and were apparently looking for
Il good feeding ground. Two days after
the sperms had passed out of sight the
brig encountered quite a good-sEed
school of humpback whales.

SIGNIFICANT SPRING.
A Dissertation upon it's advent, and
it's effect upon mankind.

hS ctIoCt upon T~UIdI1Ni1os
The green leaf of the new come Spring. "-Shat.
Everybody recognizes spring, when it is
once upon us, but many persons are not
familiar with the exact date of its appearance.
Webster, the world. renowned photographer,
gives us a definition, which may not be in
appropriate here. "Spring," says he, sis
the season of the year when plants begin to
vegetate and rise; the vernal season, compre-
hending the months of March, April and May,
in the middle ATTITUDES north of the equator"
Thompson, in his "Seasons," and Shakes
peare, in many of his works, have, perhaps,
no peers in describing it, and yet ethereal
spring" is freighted with malaria, THAT
insidious foe, lurking unseen in the very air
we breathe" 1t spreads over the fairest por-
tions of our land; brings death and disease
to thousands; cuts off scores upon scores of
our children and youth, as we'll as those in
advanced life. Apestilence is regarded with
little less apprehension, and people every
where are asking, "What is it?" "Where
does it come from?" "What will cure it?"
KIDNEY-WoRr AS A SPRING MEDICINE.
When you begin to lose appetite;-have a
headache, a pain in your side, back and
shoulders;-to toss about at night in restless
dreams;-wake in the morning with a foul
mouth and furred tongue;-feel disinclined
to go about your work, heavy in body and
oppressed in mind;-have a fit of the blues;-
when your urine gets scanty or high colored;
to suffer with constipation, diarrhea or
indigestion;-have a pasty, sallow face, dull
eyes, and a blotched skin;-one or all Of
these common complaints will certainly be
evidences that your liver is disordered, torpid
or perhaps diseased. A bottle of Kidney
Wort is, under such circumstances, a price
less boon to such a person.
Bare assertions of proprietors have come
to possess less force than they frequently
merit. The cause of this condition of popu-
lar skepticism i, in the main, to be found in
the fact that charlatanism covers our broad
land. Meritorious articles are too frequently
found in bad company.
The proprietors of Kidney-Wort always
prore all their assertions touching the merits
of their preparations. When we affirm,
therefore, that Kidney-Wort is a specific for
Just such disorders as have been mentioned
in this article, the proof, too, belongs to and
shall follow this statement.
