Because we allow no Short

hold them for the price.
We buy no Remnants"
ours are culled from the

price on them to close them
out quickly.

EARLY CHICKENS.

Early chickens will make the best
fowls next winter, so it is we'll to be-
gin now to set such hens as are ready
even if no chickens are to be raised
for market. AS early chickens sell
at good prices, try 70 raise enough Of
them so that the inferior ones may
be culled out and killed, and only the
best pullets and few extra good
cockerels saved to stock the yards
next fall. Before setting the hens
see that the nests are we'll cleaned
out and whitewashed, if possible, to
free them from vermin. Then throw
in handful OF ground sulphur and
put in clean chopped straw or hay
1t is better that the early nests be
made directly upon the ground, o.
| that few inches of earth be placed
| in the bottom of the nest, as it holds
heat and enables the eggs to hav,
the proper degree of warmth DeloV

THE MOONS INFLUENCE.

When or where the idea first origi-
mated that the moon or stars exert
an influence upon the farmers grow
ing crops and animals, it might not
be easy to determine, but certain it
is that a great many men have be-
lieved that young animals cannot be
weaned in safety except when the
astronomical ''slgns'' are right, and
that crops planted when the moon is
apparently growing larger or smaller
will be affected by such increase or
decrease in the moons light to a
very appreciate degree. Pork killed
when the moon is fsright" will boil
or fry without shrinking, while If
killed at the wrong time it will
disappear strangely in the pot or pan.
We have never considered the
subject worthy of enough thought to
charge our memory with the rules to
be observed regarding planting or
harvesting by the moon, for we have
| always noticed that those farmers
who wait for the moon and the signs,
and the lucky days all to come right
before doing a thing, are the ones
who are generally ignorant and con-
ceited OF very lazy.
We have known a farmer who
made it a rule never to begin a job
on Friday, and we have known him
practically to lose both Friday and
Saturday through such notions that
were lnstilled into his mind during
cradle song days. In haylng time
such whims are often decidedly ex-
pensive, as when it is rainy or cloudy
all the week till Friday morning.
Waiting fer the moon to increase
or wane may be equally expensive
when the season is late, and every
growing day is needed for getting 9
crop" under way. If any one still
fears to do any job that wants doing
at the earliest opportunity offered
because the moon or star is in
the wrong position, let him looh
round among his neighbors, and see
which are the successful farmers
those who work by the moon anC
signs, or those who 60 right along
with their business regardless of sucl
whims. The subject is almost too
insignificant for the moments con
sideration we have given it, yet w
know there are still many farmers il
the country who don't feel quit
justified in ignoring these old super
stitions. There are many others too
who, though disclaiming any we'll
grounded fears in these matters, ye
had rather 60 little out of thei
way to conform to the whims taugf
them in childhood days. We al

RUNDOWN FARMS.

I believe the easiest and cheapest
way to bring up rundown farm is
by green manuring. Suppose your
farm is too poor for clover, and
grass makes only q feeble effort at
growth put on it a manurial crop that
will grow, such as peas, or rye; turn
this under with your pillow, and then
you can raise something better;
keep feeding your soil with every
thing your shovel and team can CON-
mand, ashes, leached ashes if you
can get them by drawing them within
five miles; muck, top soil, mari,
anything that will bring green
mantle over your fields. SO you can
set the clover pump to work pumping
up to the surface the ineXhaustable
resources of your subsoil. If an an
imal dies don't stop to bewail your
luck and excIaim: Everything goes
to the dogs on my farm p Don't
send it to the dogs at all but com
post it with muck or even soil, and
thus secure valuable manure.
Pick up all the bones you can find,
put them under cover and mix with
two or three times their bulk of ashes
from your kitchen; moisten enough
so that the potash may act on the
gelatine of the bones stir them over
once a week, and in month or two
you will find the bones so tender you
can cut and crush them with one
blow of your shovel; beat the whole
into a powdery mass and you will
have manure better than the average
of superphosphates which you fee
too poor to buy. Give handful o.
this to each hill of corn and see how
it will wave its banner OF green an(
pour into your basket the COLDER
i heads of wheat. But in bringin;
y your soil into good condition do no
neglect the green manuring. Prof
