FARMERS SCRAP BOOK.

We have at least once before called
attention of the farmer to the impor~
lance of keeping scrap book of good
size, in which to collect and preserve
for future reference, such valuable ar
ticles as he may desire to refer to in
the course of his business.
Scrap books are of great value to
lawyers, doctors, politicians, clergymen,
teachers and students, but of no great
er value to any than to the young
farmer, who desires to keep we'll post
ed and thoroughly informed in his bus.
imess. A large, we'll bound, or even
half bound, old blank book makes a
good scrap book. A good plan is to
divide the book into II parts or divi.
sions, so as to represent the II months,
placing scraps appropriate under their
respective month for easy reference.
In making up this scrap book, we are
not to use every good article we find
in our agricultural books and papers,
but, only choice articles that we may
desire to refer to in future. Such as
statistics, experiments, and such other
valuable information as we may desire
to refer to when the time and season
comes for use. BY keeping such book
or books Of reference, we may collect
and keep at band much valuable infor-
nation to help us and our children to
determine to some extent the work of
each month. Scrap books may be too
much trouble for old farmers, but all
energetic, enquiring young farmers
should keep scrap book or books in
which to keep select scraps of impor-
tant information that they may find in
and out Of their agricultural books and
papers.

liberal use of fresh lime, cOpperas, carr
bolic acid or some other disintectant.
These are all cheap and of great value
WHEN used freely. The dwelling, beds
and clothing should be kept dry and
well ventilated and aired. Too much
attention to the observance of these
things cannot be given. A want of
such attention has caused the' loss of
many dear one and much suffering.
These thoughts are given in connec.
ton with the article from the State
Board of Health on "Diphtheria,"
which we hope will at least remind
our readers that we are not exempt
from that and many other dangerous
diseases, even though our homes be on
the mountain plateaus. Cleanliness
should be strictly observed at home, in
schools, churches, business houses, and
in fact everywhere that we frequent or
inhabit.

BARNARD MANURES.

Many of the commercial fertilizers
are doubtless good and generally pay
If judiciously used but of all the fer
tilizers we have tried the genuine barn
yard or stable manure is the most salts
factory and lasting fertilizer we can
get. We notice in our fields wherever
reasonable amount was applied, as
far back as six or eight years ago, clo-
yer and grass grow there more luxuri-
antly than on neighboring ground Of
same quality to which no stable ma
nure had been applied. The value Of
good barnyard manure can hardly be
estimated, and every pound should be
carefully saved and judiciously applied
to the land, 1t pays to save it and save
it all, This is one of the main reasons
why it pays the farmer to feed the pro
ducts of his farm to his own stock in
his barn. The hay and other forage
are worth nearly as much flor the ma
nure they make when properly cared
for as when sold to be hauled away.
Besides the manure, the growth Of
young cattle and mules makes it doubly
profitable to feed at home.
By all means let every pound Of
barnyard droppings be carefully stored
away in shelter for that purpose, and
at the proper time applied to the i'm
provement of some part of the farm

MORE ABOUT WHEAT.
HON. Z. L. GARDENHIRE.

The first day of October, 1883, Hen
ry G. Snodgrass, near Sparta, Tenn,
sowed a measured acre of land in
wheat. From this, in June, 1884, he
threshed forty bushels of good heavy
wheat, The land was barren land,
with originally thin loan above a
good clay foundation. 1t had been so
nearly ruined by long course of viii
famous cultivation, that it would not
have produced more than seven bush,
els of corn to the acre. Mr.. Snod-
grass put thirty good two-horse loads
of stable manure, in heaps evenly on
the acre. In August, when ready to
pillow, he scattered the manure before
the pillow and turned it under, before
it had time to evaporate. He turned
it as deep as he could with good two
horse turning pillow, with good horse
and bull tonge pillow following in the
furrow of the turning pillow as a sub
soil.
The first of October he sowed a
bushel of wheat on the acre and har-
rowed twice after sowing, and then
rolled it heavily, to pack the loose
earth about the seed, and forty bushels
of as good wheat as ever was raised in
the State rewarded his diligence and
care. This acre is now worth twenty
dollars more than it was before 1t was
MANFRED, the wheat is worth forty dol
lars, and the straw two dollars. The
whole cost of manure and cultivation
was not more than twenty-five dollars,
leaving the net produce of values
thirty-seven dollars. To have produce
ed the same quantity of wheat by the
common mode Of cultivation would
have required six acres, and then the
land would have been improved little
or nothing. The growth of the wheat
would have been too little to have ben
Gifted it. Better cultivate one acre

HEALTH ARTICLE.

We publish this week an interesting
and important article on "Diphtheria, 4"
issued by the Tennessee State Board of
Health, which should be read and
studied carefully by every individual
in the State old enough to understand
and appreciate the value of health and
the Importance of guarding against con-
tagious and other diseases to which the
human family are liable. The value
of health is not fully appreciated by
those who havenever suffered from sick
ness and the ravages of disease. Too
little attention is given to sanitary
measures with view of preventing
disease. Even those who have suffered
and suffered greatly on account of sick
ness Of some kind or other, fail or neg
lect to investigate the causes which
produce disease. Many precious life
might be saved, many an ache and
pain, as well as a doctors bill, avoided
by more careful observance of sani>
tary laws. Cleanliness is the great
physician or preserver of health, while
filth is the prime cause of nearly all
disease and sickness, especially of a
contagious and malignant character.
The heads of families should see that
everything offensive, or calculated to
poison or render the atmosphere they
breathe or the water they drink, i'm
pure, is removed. 1t is very
essential that the elements we breathe,
drink and eat should be pure. A strict
observance of these rules are very es>
sential to the preservation of health.
No dead carcass of animal or fowl
should be allowed to decay on top of
the ground. They should be carefully
buried in some poor spot on the farm.
Privies, cesspools, damp cellars and
every place about the premises that
contain damp, impure atmosphere
should be kept clean and purified by a

than six. Other great advantages
come from this cultivation. 1t is an
absolute insurance of crop against
rust, spot, and other diseases, and the
straw is strong and stands up well
against wind and rain. We write what
we know; we have tried it.
Mr.. Sncdgrass made us frst.class
attorney general, and it seems is about
to do his country as good service by
showing us how to cultivate our land
and make cheap bread for the million.
He is so enthusiastic over the result
that he is now preparing five other
acres in the same way. He will sue
coed, and he richly deserves success.

THE MANAGEMENT OF JERSEY
CATTLE AT HOME.

VA = = As@A @A@ AAOAAAls
The following is an extract from the
Country Gentleman translated by Mr..
Simonds from the pen of M. Henri
Johanet, trustee or manager of the
Society of Agriculturists of France.
The extract gives us some idea of how
they manage the Jersey COWS and
calves on their native Island of Jersey.
The same ideas may apply to other
breeds of cattle. 1t is as follows:
GA race of such value ought to be,
as one can conceive, the object of the
greatest solicitude on the part of its
masters. Let us take the animal
from its birth and sum up the informa.
ton that has been furnished us by the
most renowned agriculturists of the Is
land.
When the COW has dropped her calf,
there is sprinkled upon it handful of
fine salt and the COW ticks it off. This
bit of salt causes the COW to drink.
While she is licking her calf she is
MIXED and drinks the first milking.
The calf being dry, it is placed upon
a good bed Of straw in a dry stall.
After some hours the COW is again
MIXED, and her milk, mixed with te4
pid water, is given to the calf. The
little one is fed in this manner three
times day for the first three days.
Afterward, for the next three days,
the evening milk is kept till morning,
the cream taken off, and the remain
der, mixed with water quite warm, is
served to the calf. The sixth day the
keeping of the cream for butter be-.
gins; the milk is skinned every TWEEN.
ty-four hours, which permits it to be-,
come thick and acid (sour milk.
This milk is given to the calf twice
every day, not forgetting to mix warm
water Herewith, and not hesitating to
add at the end cooked -four, or even a
slice Of broken bread taken upon a
plate held in the hand in order to as
sist the calf in swallowing it. From
time to time salt is added to the bever-
age, and little hay.
At the end OF three months, if the
weather is fine, the calf is able to 90
out; when he becomes stronger, and
when the milk of the mother begins to
diminish, the calf is given twice day
a warm beverage composed of corn
meal and its bran.
When the animal, always submitted
to this regimen, attains the age of ten
to thirteen months, if it is exception
ally fine, there is no hesitation in con-
tinuing this alimentation until it is
sold; if the animal is of second quail
ty, the beverages are stopped in order
to habituate it, little by little, 10 the
food of the fields.
A heifer can be taken to the bull at
the age of nine months, but good heif-
ers ought to wait fifteen or sixteen
months. a. u
The cattle are, as much as possible,
left in the open air from the month of
May till the end Of September. They
are tethered in the open field in the
middle Of fertile, cultivated meadow
where the animal takes delight at its
ease, making a void around itself.
When it is in the stable it receives
every day 4 or 5 pounds of dry food
and from rs to. 30 pounds of roots
the feelings take place seven or eight
times day. The principal forage
plants are, before all, Swedish turnips
and parsnips; then come carrots, ra.
dishes, field turnips, beets, ETC."
