Coro Of tho Team.

1t is astonishing how little care some
farm teams get. They come from blowing
or narrowing, all dusty, sweaty, and with
skin worn off in places, it may be, by
hard harness that does not fit Iuto the
stables they so, and the curry comb and
brush scarcely ever touches them, and
as for washing off the dried sweat and
rubbing them down, that is never done.
They go into tho field in the morning,
perhaps they have been watered and per-
haps not, and they are compelled to wait
until noon true, when, if allowed to
drink, they will take more than is good
for them. 1t is only humane to manage
some way so that, on the hottest days,
the work team may have more frequent
opportunity to drink than once at morn
ing, noon and night. In respect to feed,
let it be cut hay mixed with meal. 1t is
most economical; horses will do best on
it and work the hardest. 1t is an error
to feed horses all the hay he will eat.
Make up the deficiency in grain, and, if
oats are fed, twelve quarts per day is MS
much as horse can digest we'll, and,
unless they are digested, of course they
do no good. Above all, feed regularly,
and do not over feed. On the other
hand, do not expect horse to do heavy
work on light rations.

Culture of Corn.


mistake often made is that of ploughing
too deep for this crop: if the young roots
have to go down far to reach the sod, the
plant will start slow and be stunted at
the beginning. In my ncighborhood the
one-horse planter or drill has come
into general use; it puts one kernel in a
place, giving the corn plenty of elbow
room, besides the advantage of the fer
tilizer attachment, by which any strong
fine manure can be applied in the hill
(by simply running it through a common
sand screen), and thus help greatly to
start crop. For the last year or two,
as soon as the seed is well sprouted and
firmly rooted, we go over the rows with
hand-rakes and lightly rake the surface
before the corn is rightly up; and then
follow with the two-horse cultivator as
soon as possible. After which we rake
and cultivate time about till it becomes
too large for the rake, and is not easily
covered with clods; but the cultivator is
kept going as steady and long as possible
and not injure the caring out In this
way we are able to keep the weeds from
starting at all, leaving the field clean for
future use. And our experience is that
all seeming extra work is found to have
paid when the corn is measured in the
fall. recommend trial of the rake !;
it loosens the soil around the young
stalks; will not tear them out; besides
it saves the back-aching job of hoeing.
The Small Tomatoes.
Soon after promotion of the tomato to
position among most valued garden cs-
culents the miniature varieties were
brought prominently to notice, and in
the good old gardening days no more
popular "preserve" orpickle was seen on
the farmers table. An occasional COM
promise was "swcet pickle" a toothsome
relish partaking of the characters of both
the other forms. There has been no
change in these pretty little varieties of
late years, but they are almost unknown
TO the majority of tomato growers. Still
thy possess decided merit in the wa7 of
e.iability and great productiveness; in
fact, during disastrous season when the
large solid kinds have rottcd badly the
small varieties presented mass of per-
feet fruit.
The most curious and at the same
time most ornamental of the latter class
is properly known as the Currant tomato,
with fruit very little, if any larger than
the Cherry currant Next in size is the
Cherry tomato, with both yellow and red
varieties, and these are especially recon-
mended for conserves, being of mild,
pleasant flavor. The Plum, or, as it is
most frequently called, the Pear tomato,
for the shade of difference is too slight
to notice, is likewise represented by both
yellow and red, and these appeared to be
the most highly priced by our ancestors.
A size yet larger and entirely globular is
very appropriate for salads, as the firm
texture of the flesh is unexcelled. In
this class are several new introductions
of decided merit. Croppie in N. Y.

THE YANKEE HOLDS HIS OWN.

That interesting quality of the American
nature called pluck, which so justly excites
the admiration of our sister Nations. is rarely
shown to better advantage than it was in the
last two contests for the defence of the
Americas Cup. The ugly lump of silver over
which so much excitement has been raised is
worth about 81 1000. Many far more valuable
cups ale sailed for every year. But this one,
first wrested by an American boat FROM the
astonished hands of an English yacht squadron,
is probably the most highly priced sporting
trophy in the world. Its loss would be felt as
a National humiliation. To menace it is to
disturb the serenity of almost every intelligent
American. If 1t were all of gold and as big as
barrel it could not have higher place in
the pride and devotion of the country than it
has now.
If the total expen lture incident to the de-
fence of this 81. 900 worth of silver during the
last two years were footed up, it could not
amount to less than ST., 100000. And yet no
one has intimated that the glory and the fun of
the contests were not worth the money By
far the largest single share of expense has been
borne by General Paine, of Boston, whose sole
advantage has been the honor of achieving the
two most notable yachting victories ever won
And yet he has had several rivals of almost
equal generosity, who have been moved to
lavish expenditure with only the bare poss-
Utility of being selected as their country's
champion. This disposition to win and hold
every possible advantage is one of the secrets
of our magnificent National prosperity. The
true American goes in for all the honor and all
the reward and all The fun that there are in hIe
and the hearty spirit of his undertaking is
pretty sure to be the promise of his success

This year, how ever, the Democrats needed

and they proceeded to steal even the With
Sonth Carolina, the very district which had
been devised to swallow up as large a Repub-
lican majority as possible. How they did it
was told in a dispatch published on Tuesday.
Democratic officials had exclusive power to
make all arrangements for elections; they
failed or refused to comply with the require
ments of Democratic laws in many Republican
precincts, and that failure or refusal was made
the pretext for throwing out precincts giving
Smalls heavy majorities Nobody supposes
