The Wocdstown MoSTT0R thinks We
jumped too hastily at 4 conclusion when
We set it down for free trade. Far be it
from us to place the MONITOR in a false
position. We judged our esteemed con-
temporary to be for free trade from a
paragraph in its issue OF August 21st in
which reference was made to ~inonopolies.
We regret that we have not the paper at
hand TO quote the paragraph to which we
refer.-W. j. Prem.
The paragraph ia question We stole
from an exchange, a kind Of free trade not
uncommon, by the way, and We used it to
illustrate the monopolistic tendency Of the
barbed wire manufacturers who abused the
protection given their. business by a protec-
tive tariff and took advantage Of their
situation to combine against the farmer.
We were not discussing free trade or pro-
lection but merely noticed in passing, in
the words Of a contemporary, a point Of
interest to oar farmer friends. This paper
has no bias for OF against the Protective
Free Trade issue but there is one kind
of protection for which We do go in, heart
and soul. and that is the Protection Of the
American Home and family from the
dannable traffic in rum. Don't put us
down wrong on that point, Bro. Chew, and
it won't matter 50 much about other ques-
tions.

Fertility and Tlllnge.

The stock of poultry manure, though
probably small, has great value as fer
tillzer for all sorts of vegetables. and
its frequent removal greatly helps to
keep the fowls in health. 1t ferments
rapidly in warm weather, and should
be clearly taken up at least once q
week, but better twice, and put in the
garden around melon or cucumber
hills where it will do the most good by
being hoed lightly into the soil. If
one wants to know how much pota-
toes are benefited by cultivation. let
him choose two or three rows and hoe
them, or rake the soil every morning
while the breakfast is preparing, and
note the result. If he wishes to try
another experiment let him rake up
the droppings of the poultry.house
every morning and put them into the
soil about a few hills of potatoes, and
ne will discover what frequent fertili-
Ting Will do. Moreover, if he will put
all the labor and fertilizers upon one
square rod, or one acre, which he is
ased to expend upon four times as
much space, he will learn how great
yields are produced, and find his views
apon the subject considerably enlarged.

WEAVING Calves.

A correspondent of the National
stockman. upon the question of feed
ng calves, remarks: ~ prefer wean-
ing when two weeks old, while some
think 1t best to wean at the early age
IF one day. BY the time the calf is two
weeks old it has commenced to thrive,
aas put on some flesh. and is very much
more able to stand the strain on its
Young system. ] have had the best
success learning them to drink by not
giving them anything the first regular
time of feeding. By the second their
appetites are sharpened and their thirst
increased, so that they will drink out
Of the bucket without giving them the
finger. 1t is q bad habit to learn them
to drink by placing the finger in the
mouth, and always gives the one trou-
BILE who practices it. The calf should
be penned in a static where the COW
can neither see nor hear it. Then il
will soon become resigned in its new
quarters and thrive from the very
start"

1t is difficult to get any kind Of ami
nal excepting sheep to eat raw beans.
A hen will pick one up and gravely
drop it on discovering what it is. Yet
DEANS are very valuable food, and
where sleep are not kept some care
should be taken to utilize those that
are cracked or colored. One of the
best means for doing this is to grind
the beans and mix the meal in gradu-
ally, increasing proportions with that
Of other grain for growing pigs. 1t is
excellent to feed with cornmeal, the
large amount of albuminoids in the
beans experimenting this deficiency in
the corn. Beans are not reckoned
good feed for breeding ewes, as the
straining of bowels from the wind
they generate sometimes does injury.
1t would be well, therefore, to with
hold bean meal from sows with pig, or
give it in small quantities and note the
result carefully.

Cutting and Curing Clover.

Good well-cured clover is good feed;
especially for sheep; but when black
and dusty it is hardly fit to place be-
.ore stock. Under ordinary circum-
stances, it can be had sweet, clean, and
bright, as well as otherwise. If the
mower is started in the morning, run
It until noon or later, and rake and
put up the clover in cocks before you
quit the field at night. 1t will cure
almost as much there during the night,
by heating, as in the daytime, and it
will leave the blossoms and leaves all
intact; exposure to a hot sun causes
them to fall off, leaving only the bare
stalk to go to the stack or NOW. Ear
~ in the morning, when the dew is
off, turn out the cocks, shake up the
clover once or more before dinner, and
Immediately after it will be ready for
the barn. Some prefer to NOW late in
The afternoon, letting the clover lie in
he swath over night. to be stirred.
.aked, and hauled in the following day.
But if heavy dew or rain falls du-
ing the night, the hay will be black
and stock will eat it less eagerly. Caps
If cotton cloth can be used to good ad-
vantage to cover the clover when in
cocks. Near the cities clover is often
sold in small bundles to be fed to city
aorses as a kind of desert" or altera-
tive. 1t can be made highly profitable
10 any one conveniently situated
IndeDendent.
