OilIns wagon wheels.

A well-made wheel will endure
constant wear from ten TO twenty-five
years, if care is taken to use the right
kind and proper amount of grease,
but if this matter is not attended to
will be used up in five or six yearst
Lard should never be used on wagon
tor it will penetrate the hub and work
its way around the lemons of the spokes
and wheels. Tallow is the best lub-
ricator for wooden axle trees and
castor oil for iron hubs, but many of
the present axle greases are also excel
lent, and have the merit of being
cheaper and easier to handle Just
grease enough should be applied to the
spindle of a wagon to give it slight
coating. This is better than more, for
the surplus put on will work out at
the ends and be forced by the shoulder
bands and nut washer in
to the hub around the outside of
the boxes. To oil an iron axle tree,
first wipe the spindle clean with a
piece of cloth wet with spirits of turpen-
tine,and then apply few drops of castor
oil near the shoulder and end. One
teaspoon full is sufficient for the whole
Farming World.

FOR The FARM AND H0nR
Requirements or sweet corn.


In discussion on sweet corn Dy the
members of the Michigan Horticul-
tural Society at the summer meeting,
at Bay City, the following opinions
were expressed: Sweet corn is much
more difficult to terminate than field
corn, hence more seed is required in
planting. It crosses more readily than
other corn. but varieties so produced
are exceedingly hard to fix. Sweet
corn, for best growth, requires colder
climate and soil less rich in vegetable
matter than does field corn. Phos-
PLAT prove more beneficial than do
potash fertilizers. Sweet varieties of
corn with red cob may be cooked
without the kernels becoming discolor-
ed by placing the ears in boiling water
to which has been added little salt;
boil rapidly and remove from the
water as soon as done. Corn designed
for the evaporation should not be
picked until ripened. Corn cooked by
steam is sweeter than when boiled in
the usual way.

Bacon and Eggs Cut the bacon in
thin slices and fry crisp. When done

egg on each slice of bacon.
Chicken Soup.-Boil one chicken

Farm ana Garden Notes.

Charcoal and lime should be always
in abundant supply where poultry can
reach them.
Every poultry house should face the
south in order to get the full benefit of
the light and heat of the sun. 1t pays
as part of the winter programme.
Oats, peas and barley mixed with
some corn should constitute the grain
feed for farm or carriage horses
especially in warm weather.
There are many reasons why black
hogs are preferable to white ones. of
which these are some:- They are not
only more hardy and vigorous as a
general thing, but are less subject to
disease, especially that of the skin.
If the fowls are confined give them
plenty of green stuff. A good sod
thrown over the fence will be cheer
fully welcomed by them, and even the
tops of vegetables viii be found SER
viceable.
Joseph Harris says, in his recently
issued catalogue, that celery and cauli-
flower need very rich land and plenty
of water; and that some of our rich
swamps. with stream of water
through them, might be easily con-
yerted into favorable place for these
two vegetables.
Fruit growers who raise a supply
for their own use exclusively should
look over their grounds and see
whether they have the right sorts for a
regular and continuous supply the
season through. They will have a
good opportunity, as the sorts success
lively mature. to see if there are any
gaps to be filed. and make a list ac-
cordingly of the sorts to be used to
supply the deficiencies.
A late writer says that on any foot
of wall. except that facing north. it is
possible to grow pound of grapes.
He then exclaims. sHow great would
be the produce were the now unoccu-
pied walls of our houses and gardens
covered with theml''
Among the preventive remedies
against disease among swine is cleanli
ness, = supply Of pure water at all
times. variety OF food, avoiding corn
except ID cold weather, and an occa-
sional proportion Of charcoal. wood
ashes and rotten wood.

If grease or oil is spilled on a carpet
sprinkle -four or fine meal over the
spot as soon as possible. let it lie for
several hours, and it will absorb the
grease.
Silk pocket hankerchiefs and dark
blue cotton will not fade if dipped in
salt and water while new.
Sal volatile or hartshorn will restore
colors taken out by acid. 1t may be
dropped upon any material without
doing harm.
Old linen should be carefully pre-
served as it is always useful in sick
ness; afterward it can be washed and
then scraped into lint.
The high chair for the baby is al
ways too large at first. This is wise
provision for growth, but not always a
comfortable one; but it may be made
so by making padded covering for
the seat and back of the chair. The
smaller the child the thicker the
cushions should be. Thus a chair
that is large enough for child of five
may hold an infant of few months.

The French have way of feeding
floclIs of poultry economically and to
very good advantage, such as we Am
orleans rarely or never adopt. An
extract from The London Field pro-
poses that farmers build small, cheap
chicken houses, to be carried into the
fields or pastures during the warm
season, in each of which may be placed
a dozen or two birds, with ordinary
laying and roosting accommodations,
and from which they may be allowed
to roam at liberty in the daytime, to
forage in the open space around their
temporary shelter coop.
The Frenchman does this similarly
The coops or boxes are made of light,
rough material, and are trundled out
into the ploughed fields at first, or are
carried thither in carts and set down
where the fowls can have access to the
newly turned-up ground, out of which
they gather great quantities of grubs
worms. insects. ETC.. after the plough.
ing.
Later in the season the boxes are
carried to the pasture-lands, where
they obtain grasshoppers and other in
sects in profusion A single feed daily
of corn or other grains suffices to keep
them in good thrift. The hens lay
well under this treatment, and the eggs
hatch well under this treatment, al
most uniformly. Our farmers will do
well to avail themselves Of this adj
mirable suggestion, since its cost is
trifiing, and it is certainly a great inn
provement in ordinary bookkeeping
over the WORKOUT and effete plan.
which thousands indulge in, of COM
polling their domestic fowls to shift
for themselves around the filthy barn
yard or filthier pig-sty, and leaving
them thus to trough it, when, with a
little more care and better manage
ment, this kind of small live stock may
be made to pay their owners double or
triple the percentage of profit in eggs
alone, than can be realized from them
in the old way, which we haveso often
condemned.
The only drawback is the encroach-
ments of hawks, owls, foxes. weasels.
etc, by day and human thieves by
night, which would make trouble in
some localities were the fiocks left at a
distance from the owners dwelling
without a guardian. -American PouL
