Study on the Farm.

More exercise of the mind would be
of vast benefit to most farmers and to
their sons. The farm is very suitable
place for study, just where one can OBJ
serve and reflect upon the course of
nature and the processes of cultivation;
and i'm order to learn with correctness
and satisfaction, something like "A regu-
lar journal should be kept, in which
both experience and observation can be
noted down, then they may to some
extent direct future practice. r.l
The pleasure of acquiring knowledge
is always possible with the tiller of the
soil. This to me is a matter Of rejoicing,
for every farmer may be assured that he
can never exhaust his opportunities for
learning something new. Should we
accept as true all that our ancestors
claim to have known, about tilling or
fertilizing the SOIL or what books teach
upon the subjects, even then the matters
upon which good farmers differ are so
numerous that life-timei is not sufficient
for one to settle them all for himself;
still, if he improve his opportunities, he
will learn a great many things OF which
he is now entirely ignorant.
/ come to the point from which /
ought to have started-that fundamental
principles should be learned first and
methods and systems afterwards. There
are principles, like drainage, irrigation,
natural and otherwise, tillage, fertiliza-
ton, rotation of crops, etc. that are in
dispensable to successful farming.
These should be understood by every
farmer, and there are ample means
upon every farm for learning them.
With complete knowledge of these
the farmer will most likely adopt a
course best suited TO the conditions and
circumstances by which he is surround

How to Get Rid Of Rats.

! The plague which rats are in many
places renders justifiable almost any
means OF getting rid of them. A cor
respondent who has had practical ex-
perience, writes to contemporary
stating that caustic soda is the best and
speediest means of getting rid OF them.
Cream caustic soda, seventy degrees
in strength, COSTS" he says, ''nine
pounds per ton, but it can be purchased
in tin kegs from any drysalter at about
ten shillings per hundredweight. 1t Is
in a solid state, and can be easily
broken up in small pieces large enough
to push into rat-hole. l proceed to
use it thus: Melt some in an iron or
stoneware vessel, and pour it into the
holes, so that the ground around may
be saturated with It; then jam one or
two pieces into the holes, so that the
rats may not undermine and scratch
them away. When the rats come to
the mouth of the hole and smell the
soda, they will begin to scratch under
to remove it; but the fluid soda has wet
the soil or stones around, and their feet
will get blistered, and they cannot re-
move the solid pieces. Exposure to the
eAA NOSPo viz ooAiaCC VA Wiz oO>Ao "a
wet; but long before the pieces are en-
tirely melted away the rats will have
forsaken that hole. AS to dogs or poul-
try suffering by its use, care should be
taken to keep them from touching it.
Where the ground is undermined by .
series of holes, would insert pieces of
wood covered with soda into the holes,
and slowly pour quantity of melted
soda on the ground around, giving time
for it to dry in. Rats are exceedingly
cunning; and if they find themselves
constantly liable to get themselves Sc
verely burned when running about their
favorite haunts they will entirely for
sake the premises. AS to handling
caustic soda, it should not be touched
with the ungloved hand, and care should
be used when breaking it not to let it
spark on the face or eyes; and | think
with these instructions and q little per-
severance, the man must be careless
who cannot free his house or buildings
from rats. Chambers Journal.

Keeping Old Cows.

1t pays to run machine as long as it
can be made to return q fair profit on
the cost of operating it. Using the old
machine saves interest on new invest
ment, and the continued wear on it does
not decrease its Uolue, for the waste ma
terial in q condemned machine will be
the same whether it is wholly or only
half worn out.
The case is quite different with farm
stock, which can be used as food when
it begins to diminish in usefulness to its
owner. The man who keeps an OK or a
COW till it pines with old age, is double
loser by so doing. 1t invariably costs
more in food and care to maintain an
old animal than young one. AS the
vigor of life fails, digestion is less per-
feet and assimilation slower and more
difficult, and the waste is greater. AS
the decline goes on more and more food
is required to produce a given amount
OF labor, or milk, or meat. Old animals
can seldom be fattened at profit, even
If their flesh was as valuable as that of
younger ones, because it requires so
much more time and feed to do it. But
their flesh is not equal to that OF ami
mails in their prime, so there is loss,
both in the quality and in the cost of
producing. Old COWS that have been
MIXED till their life force has been ex-
hausted, make very poor and low-priced,
as well rs expensive beef. When COW
has reached twelve to fourteen years OF
age, it hardly pays to fatten her, If she
could be had for nothing. Some cows
OF extraordinary quality may be profita-
bly, kept as long as they can be, for the
sake either of stock or milk. but average
COWS are better converted into beef be-
fore it would be appropriate to call
them old.--NatiOnal Lire Stock Journal.
