sheep Manure.

The value of any manure depends upon
The kind of food which tho animals have
eaten. Cows for instance which have
been fed upon straw, cannot make
manure which would contain any more
fertinzing properties than the straw, and
in fact it would contaia less, because the
COW had used some of the most valuable
elements of the straw for her subsistence.
So if sheep had been fed upon straw or
conlstalks their manure is of no more
fertilizing value than these are, but it is
true that the finely broken and partly di-
gesGed matter is more easily decomposed
than the coarse straw, and hence the
manure is more available. But when the
sheep have been fed upon rich food, rs
bran, corn, and linseed meal, tho manure
becomes much richer, and from its finely
comminuted condition makes the best
kind of fertilizer. 1t is exceedingly
valuable for corn, because it is rich in
all the elements of plant food which corn
requires and is so rapidly available. We
prefer to plow it under in such way
that the subsequent narrowing mixes it
thoroughly with the soil-Ne,o YORK.

Not Old Enough.

An American relates that he was ones
travelling in England, and he was staying
for week at large country house,
which was, as usual at that season, full
of guests, invited like myself. 1t was
an old estate and had the usual display
of oaks, which are so handsome and pic
turesque a feature of English country
parks. He was walking through the
park one day with naughty, aristocratc
lady. ''Have you any trees in America!"
she suddenly asked him. He was too
much taken aback to speak for moment,
and before he could reply, she broke in:
"Why, what silly question | have
asked you'll OF course you haven't any
trees. The country isn't old enough. y

Among the common salads there is
none in such general demand for the ia
BILE as lettuce. 1t is an easy grower, and
yet it needs for its best development a
good soil and careful culture. Lettuce
is too often treated as subsidiary crop,
and is sown too thickly in seed beds and
grown too thickly together. The let
tuce bed should always, where possible,
be set apart from the rest of the garden
n some way so that it may be cultivated
freely without disturbing other vegeta-
bles. Not only should the soil be mel
low, deep and highly enriched with ma
nure, but it should have full exposure to
the air, with perfect draining. In the
opinion of Mr. William Farley, an au-
thority on the kitchen garden, those
who would secure fine growth of let
tuce should give their chief attention to
its culture in the early summer or in the
autumn months. The heat and aridity
Of moderately dry summers too generally
hurry its growth into Towering and the

seed form. To secure tho autumn crop
a sowing should be made during the Sec
ond or third week in July, choosing
cloudy or rainy weather, if possible. For
main crop tho seed is usually sown by
market gardeners in the open ground
about tho middle OF September, and
transplanted to cold frames as soon as
large enough to handle, being wintered
over in the same manner as early cab
bage, Plants have been known to come
out in tho spring perfectly fresh from
seed sown in tho open ground in the mid.
die of September. Lettuce is plant Of
comparatively tender growth, and unless
care is taken to promptly destroy all
weeds, it may be quickly choked up so
as to be worthless, The kinds best to use
arc those known as black seeded Simpson
and salamandcr; tho one is curled
lcaf variety, the other is plain or smooth
lcavcd, and forms solid head.

w. l. Cook, of CASTLE, N Y, writes
as follows to tho Cultipator: desire to
call the attention Of your readers to the
value Of sunhowers to every cultivator OF
the soil, especially to poultrymen. Con.
sdering its value, the suntlower is the
most neglected plant in this country
1t is plant that will thrive almost any.
where, and on any soil that will produce
beans. After long and successful ex.
perience in its culture, I am satisfied
that the sunfower is most useful plant
and may be utilized in several ways. As
a food for fowls, it has no superior OF
even equal, adding great brilliancy to
the plumage and promoting vigor and
health. For feeding live stock also it
will produce very satisfactory results.
This plant is of great value in purify
ing the air in localities where malaria
abounds. 1t is entirely exempt from the
attacks of noxious insects. When
thoroughly dried the stalks make the
best and cheapest kindling wood in such
districts as Kansas, Nebraska and
Dakota, where fuel is scarce and dear.
In some sections in the above State sun
flowers are grown by the acre for the
purposes of fuel. In Europe, especially
in Russia, the manufacture of oil from
sunt1ower seeds is leading industry.
The culture of the sunfower is the
same as that of corn, except the plants
should be 1-2 feet apart in the row.
No plant will respond to thorough culti-
walton with greater profit than the sum

the Mammoth Russian variety, and con-
slider it the most hardy productive and
profitable, at tho same time the earliest
to mature. The variety originated in
central Russia, and was introduced into
this country eight years ago by the Rus
sian Mennonitcs. This variety has stalks
to s 1-2 feet in height and one to two
inches in diameter, with heads as large in
diameter as water-pal. Some speci.
mems grow even larger, with large gray
seeds, providing they arc thorouohl
