A successful farmer says that he "feeds
his land before it is hungry. rests it be-
fore it is weary, and weeds it before il is
foul.
When there is time and space, expert
ment on a small scale with the new vari
cites that promise well, but never plant
exclusively of untried varieties.
For wet lands good mixture for pas
mrage would be red top, eight pounds
alsike, six pounds; meadow foxtail, four
pounds, and rough stalked meadow, six
pounds.
Some varieties of raspberries throw up
a great many suckers which should be
cut out. Not over fouf canes to the hill
should be allowed so as to afford plenty
of room.
Whenever rhubarb throws out q great
maRy leaves and the stalks are small and
worthless, the roots should be dug up
and transp!antcd, dividing them, so that
only one thrifty bad is let to each piece
of root This should b, done early in
the spring, as soon as the newly formed
buds are ready to push through the soil.
Every farmer should aim TO raise all
the possible products of the climate for
his own use. Herein lies the independ-
ence of farm life. He grows every sup
ply for his table, so far as his soil and
climate admits, under his own eye. He
is dependent on no one for the neccsSi-
ties of life, or even for the Injuries OF
his table.
The following general rules will apply
in the selection Of calves to be raised for
dairy cows: The head should not lie
oyerlarge, the neck thin rather than
thick, and the skin possess NO a soft feel
that can only be judged by an expert.

These are as good indications OF cha a =

Squash and sweet potato vines having
rootlcts that grow OF from the under
side of the joints, which anchor tn NJ
| and prevent the wind from dislodgino
them, should be fitted very carefully
when growing as the roJtlets not only
hold the plants in place, but assist in
procuring nourishment, and any dlmagc
done in handling rctards the vines.

well to use it often in cases where one
hesitates as to what can be best used 1t
is perfectly harmless.
Many farmers in places where their
land is swept by fierce winds find it profit
able to plant apple trees in masses large
enough to make windbreak on the side
Of the farm most exposed. The apple
tree branches low down, and if boarded
by fence four or five feet high on the
windward side, the ground will be
covered with snow almost as perfectly as
it was in the original forest.
A New England contemporary gives Il
plan for preventing crows from pulling
corn. 1t is TO soak the corn in a weak
solution of copperas (sulphate of from
twenty-four hours before planting. To
make it easy to drop, and to prevent the
iron from injuring the hands, rub the
corn in gypsum or plaster. This method,
it says, will prevent crows from destroy
ing corn and save the farmer much an
noyance and labor.
Use plenty of whitewash in the poultry
house now. As the warm weather APP
proaches the lice will appear unless pre-
cautions are taken to avoid the vermin.
Clean up the poultry house and yards,
dust insect powder into all the cracks
and crevices, put tobacco refuse in the
nests, coal oil the roosts, and whitewash
the walls of the poultry house, first add
ing q tablespoonful of carbolic acid to
each bucket of whitewash used.
Apple trees are often starved in other
ways than by neglect to manure. The
apple borer leads to starvation oftener
than poor soil. The supply of food is
cut off by every move the borer makes

Speaking of the cultivation Of wild
fruits, which may be done advantage
Ously on small areas of land, writer
says: "While beets, turnips, potatoes
and Cabbagcs can be bought in good con-
dition, Strawberries, raspberries, black
berries, huckleberries and other small
fruits can only he had in full perfection

From tha N,,n ynrk SIR

From tie Nets YORK. Star.
Zadock Bonner had a farm in Carroll
county, Georgia, before the war. 1t was
a big farm, comprising 1916 acres OF hill
and valley, forest and swamp in the usual
proportion. Very little is known of him,
except that he sympathzed with the lost
cause, aud forfeited his life therefor. no
was shot for making and storing arnfs
and ammunition for the Confederates.
The land was tree from all liens and In
oumbrances at bis death, ana
no Will was found. Bonner's
strong box was opened aud found to
contain quantity OF gold coins and a
few letters, 80 old and moldy as 60 be-
illegible. Only on the envelopes could be
read the postmRrk OF Calcutta. The state
authorities felt justified ia selling the
property, which ultimately fell into the
possession Of an English gentleman OF
