Autumn Care of Orchard and
Nursery.

American Agriculturist for October.
The gathering of late fruits will be
an important work this month, one
which requires more care than is usu>
ally given to it. The longest keepers
may hang until there is danger of
frosts. The color Of the fruit, the
ripeness of the seeds, the readiness
with which the stem of the fruit parts
from the tree, and the falling of the
fruits, are all signs of ripeness. Win
ter pears are to be treated the same as
winter apples. Do not mix varieties,
but give each kind separate barrel or
box. Fruit to be kept, should not be
taken to the cellar or fruit house until
frosty nights. In packing fruit for
market, make first and second qualities,
and use all inferior fruit at home.
Have the fruit of even quality all
through the barrel, using barrels Of
full size. Always bring the head in
place by sufficient pressure to prevent
shaking. Cider apples are not injured
by light frosts, Placed in heaps the
fruit loses water, and the juice becomes
richer. Cool weather is best for cider
making. Top>dress orchards to keeE
up fertility any time this month. Or
der nursery trees to be planted this
fall, or heeled-in for spring planting.

Standard TENNESSEE-SATURDAY, SEP a7 1884

freshly cut to wilted food in summer,
and we also find that wilted food is
relished as a steady ration fully as well
as that which is just cut, especially if
the freshly cut is wet with rain or dew.
Our practice has been to cut plenty of
green feed in fair weather, and spread
it on the barn floor to be used as
wanted; and just before a storm, and
on Saturdays, to cut an extra quantity,
so as to avoid Sunday work and the
feeding of wet material, which in the
case of clover is especially dangerous.
If the green fodder runs out before
fair weather, we have fed good dry
hay or millet in summer just as freely
as in winter.
We notice a great change in public
sentiment concerning the relative adj
vantages of stall-feeding and pasturing.
Whereas formerly very few farmers
fed anything at the barn during suns
mer, now very few fail to grow some
kind of crop to be fed in case of short
pasture, or to enable them to carry a
larger stock than could be supported
by pasture feed alone.
The fact should not be lost sight Of
by those who advocate silos, that ensi
lage feeding is one form of soiling
stock, especially when enough is laid
APP to carry the stock through into the
summer. Corn ensilage, and rye and
wheat ensilage, can be grown so as to
get two full crops from the same land
every favorable season, and it is from
this double cropping of our lands that
we are to look for increased profits from
our business. The farmer who gets
two crops per year is better off than j;
he who works two farms; for in the
latter case there is a double tax and
interest to charge on the investment.
while the labor may be less on the one
farm, as there will be less travel ii
getting over it.
1t should be remembered, too, thai
land which is frequently stirred is much
more productive than fields that re
main long time uncultivated, an(
that although grass is a most excellen
cattle food. yet more stock can be KEEP
upon a given area when devoted Il
some other kind of crop. 1t used t,
be thought that cattle could not b
kept healthy and contented in summe
anywhere except in pasture, but thi
is not true, as many have proved b,
repeated trials.

Training Boys For Farmers.
Index

Index-Appeal.
1t is not to be expected, nor is it to
be desired, that every boy upon farm
should be a farmer. Some will have
genius for and must seek a living in
other callings. Still it is best, no doubt,
that the majority Of farmers boys
should follow the same calling as their
father, best for them and best for the
country.
But how to keep the boys on the
farm, and how to train them into good,
practical, progressive and successful
farmers are questions often asked and
seldom answered. We believe it de-
ponds almost entirely on the home
training the boy receives as he grows
up. 1t is natural for boys to dislike
hard work and ceaseless drudgery, as
it is for city bred people to be fond of
show and excitement, and if the home
life of a farmer boy is all work and no
relaxation, rest and reasonable amuse-
ment, it is not to be expected that he
will grow up with love for farm life.
To make long story short, let us
say, that, in our humble opinion, the
best way in the world to keep a boy
on the farm and cause him to become
a good, industrious and successful far
mer is to give him a little farm of his
own while he is a boy, and encourage
him to cultivate and improve it. Give
the boy twenty-five Or fifty acres Of
land with the promise that it shall be
his with more added when he become;
a man, and give him the means, aid
and encouragement necessary to work
it; tell him that all the stock and crop:
he can raise shall be his own to use il
a proper manner, as in the purchase Of
clothes, books, education, etc; anC
then allow the boy amplestime to work
his little farm, even all his time if nee
essary, and if that boy has any energy
or acquisitiveness at all, he will soor
be seized with new spirit, new ligh
will kindle in his eye, he will soon take
an abiding interest in his work anC
will come to love it. This is the way
to keep him on the farm.
If fathers would give their sons thi
sort of chance and training, the boz
would soon be a better farmer than tn,
old man, The boy would become self

supporting at an early age, and would
grow with self reliance and practical
knowledge instead of that irresolution
and indecision we often see. Let ta>
theirs take an interest in their boys and
help them to make themselves men of
industry and sagacity. Isit not inf
nitely better to give the boys this help
and start in life than to wait till you
die for your property to be divided,

MY WIFRS AWAY.

What's that sensation round my heart
That feels as If I'd lost part
OF self, and makes my feelings smart?
My wife's away.
What happy voice at rosy morn,
On music's wing that once was borne
is missed, and things look so forlom?
My wife's away.
What makes me have the bluest blues,
And all the world curse and abuse,
And sulkV, melancholy choose?
Ny wife's away.
What's vacant at the table.head,
Where, angel like, dispensing bread,
She sat, and now blank instead?
My wife's away.
What ails my undergarment kit?
Not one of them will rightly sit
1t drives me nearly in a fit.
My wife's away.
The socks not two of them will pair;
The shirts-not one without tear;
The buttons, too, are never there.
My wife's away.
The sooty servant now is boss,
And turns her nose up with toss,
And looks at me internal cross.
My wife's away.
What makes the evenings seem so long
And still as night, where once song
Or music sweet charmed time along?
My wife's away.
My wife, God bless her angel face,
And bring her safe to my embrace!
To me the empress of the race.
My wife's away.

The Selling System Growing More
Popular.

New England Farmer.
With every years experience, added
to observation of the methods pursued
by others, we are more and more con.
WINGED of the economy of the soiling
system for New England farmers as
compared with the time-honored GUS
tom of depending exclusively upon
pasturing, especially for dairy stock,
and where a uniform product is par>
, ticularly desirable. Of course We do
not mean by soiling, the cutting of
green food and carrying it to cattle in
their stables three times day all the
summer through, rainy days and Sum
days, as we'll as other days, for such
feeding is both impracticable and I'M
necessary.
Those who take this view of the
soiling system are quite right in OBJ
jecting to it on account of the greatly
increased amount Of labor required in
the care of the stock over the old
method of turning to pasture. What
we understand by soiling is really stall
feeding, whether the food given be
green or dry, and particularly the rails
ing of extra forage crops, in addition
to the hay crop Of the farm, to be fed
both summer and winter for the special
purpose of keeping up a continued
yield of milk, and thus increasing the
net income of the farm.
4 x x 4 K X
Now those who have sufficiently ex.
perimented with special forage crops
have learned that far more cattle FOOD
can be grown upon an acre of tillagt
land devoted to some of the popular
forage crops, than it is possible to OBJ
tain from ordinary grasses, and this ii
particularly true in seasons of summer
drought. By sowing winter rye Oh
wheat in the fall, one is enabled to OBJ
tain crop that is grown at seasons o
the year when droughts are of very
rare occurrence. In this way one i
pretty sure of at least one full crop il
the year. Then after cutting and feed
ing it green, or curing it for hay il
May or early in June, there is nearl,
the whole of the usual growing season
left for raising some other kind of GRO
corn for ensilage, or some of the va
rieties of millet, either of which vii
yield more than ordinary crops of grass
and many times more than most pas
ture lands. Feeding at the stall doe
require more work than pasturing, bu
it is work that we believe will pa
whenever it is judiciously performed
There is, however, no occasion fc
being tied up to scythe and whee
barrow or tipNcart every day in tn
year, where cattle are kept off fror
the pasture, for while there is no bel
ter feed for producing large flow {
milk than good pasture, yet good pa
ture through the season is so rarely
be had, aud cattle shrink so rapid
when the feed becomes short, that sol
ed or stall fed cows will give, takin
the year through, more milk tina
those which depend upon ordinary pa
ture feed. Give plenty of pure fres
water, and COWS will soon learn to e,
dry food in summer as well as in vii
ter.
We find that cows really like
change from green to dry, and fro

MEISS0NlER'S Joke.

Mcissonier tried to hoax his gard
ener the other day. "Do you know
these seeds?" asked the painter,
showing the man packet of dried
herring roe. Yes" was the reply,
'they are those of Polypus .f,tni-
mus, a very rare tropical plant"
Meissonier smiled sweetly, and asked
the gardener how long they would
take to grow, and he said promptly,
"Fifteen days" "Then plant
Them" said the planter. He told
the story to number of friends,
and invited them to dinner to see the
denouement on the fifteenth day.
AS they were sitting at their wine
the gardener sent message to the
effect that Meissonier's plants had
that morning sprouted. "Oh," said
the painter, "ths is too impudent,
but let us go and see what the fellow
means" They went, but the laugh
was against Meissonier when his
gardener led them to little bed
screened from the sun, and lifting a
glass bell, showed four rows of red
herrings sticking in the ground.
