from society. There are innumerable in
stances in these cities where the wife pays the
rent, meets all the family expenses, and fur

They have too often seen the gold ring put on

What farce it is for man who cannot sup

Farm and Home.
THE FARMING INTEREST.

There is no vocation that advan-
ces civilization half so much as a
good, scientific system of farming.
The old civilizations sprang up in
such places as the rural districts
along the valley Of the Nile, and
in Greece and Italy and Palestine.
But strange TO say, the farmers as
class study their vocation less than
any other class of tradesmen. Ma
chinists, factory operatives, ma
ehanlcs, all who succeed are tram
ed for their work. Farming is one
of the most complex and intricate
of all occupations. The profession
of medicine has no greater necessl-
ty for thorough knowledge of
chemistry than the science oftarm-
ing, yet chemistry is not one of the
branches taught in our public
school course. The farmer who
uses the fertilizers from the stable
and hen house, reaps his reward
from the vast amount of ammonia
which these articles contain. If
he puts ashes on his farm, espe-
cially on his fruit and potatoes, he
is rewarded by the potash his land
has gained from the ashes. But il
he mixes ashes and stable manure
together he gets no benefit from
either, because potash and ammon-
Ia form an insoluble compound.
ALI vegetable matter contains am
mona. Lime will'set it free for
the use of plants. Lime contains
no fertilizing principle in itself,
but enables the crop to appropriate
the natural fertility of the soil, so
that it can be utilized. The farmer
should.study the habits of insects,
as quite number of the bugs and
worms may easily be destroyed,
even before they have damaged the
crop, if rightly understood. A
great many birds that we think
very destructive, destroy more
worms that are injurng tho fruit
crop than they destroy fruit, there
by being q source of real profit to
the farmer. The mocking bird
will damage the peach crop, but
he will destroy the curculio, and if
this insect were allowed to increase
to Its utmost, fruit culture would
become an impossibility. The
mocking bird also destroys the
cabbags worm, and various nox-
ious insects. Botany is another
branch in which farmers should be
trained.Some plants will flourish in
one climate, some IN another. The
habits of all valuable plants should
be NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. the plant
is a shallow or deep feeder, for
instance. Some plants require
deep blowing, some shallow, and
some need no blowing at all, such
as the pear. A vast amount of
practical knowledge of this kind
is not only within the reach of
every farmer, but is absolutely in
dispensable to his profession, un-
less he is willing to waste his life
IN experiments.

DEATH FROM BARBED WIRE.


Since the general Introduction of
barbed wire fences it has been
noticed that there has been a great
increase in loss OF stock from light
nIng. Stock in storm generally
drift to the far side OF field and
often stand with their heads over
the fence, with tails toward the
storm, and numerous incidents are
recorded of their being killed
while in that position, their bodies
being good conductors. The storm
mag be miles away and the cur
rent conveyed to them along the
wire.
In one case (Which came under
my observatory this last summer
nine steers were killed IN Eastern
Kansas, in another two women
having gone out to view the COM
ing storm and took refuge under q
shed built against q wire fence, the
lightning struck mile and half
away, but had q continuous con-
uection to where they stood. One
of them was killed outright, and
the other so stunned that she was
with difficulty restored. Your cor
respondent guarded against all
dangers of this sort q few years
ago in a very simple way, which
should have been published and
generally known long ago, though
the duty has been too long neg
lected. 1 now take the opportu
nifty of disseminating the informa-
ton through your valuable jour
nal, believing none other has so
wide q circulation among progress
i've stock men. The remedy Is as
simple as it is effective, and con-
sists In drilling a hole two feet
deep with bar and inserting 4
wire, tamping it in tight, then
taking turn around each strand
of the fence, letting a few inches
project above (the latter is not
altogether essontiaD; place these
at from fifty to one hundred feet
apart, or what is better, between
each post. 1t is worth all 1T costs
in stiffenIng the fence. With this
ground connection you are abso-
lutely safe. W. NJ. H.

WHY FARMERS SHOULD AVOID KEEPING
POOR ANIMALS.

WHY FARMERS SHOULD AVOID kEEPlAG
POOR ANIMALS.
There are too many horses kept
on the farm, perhaps not too many
when their combined ability to do
the work required OF them is esti-
mated, but too many IN numbers,
this being rendered necessary by
want of adaptability to do the
work awaiting them. To keep SIX
horses TO do the work that might
be done by four is very poor econ
omy, to say the least, Thus, a
horse that lacks in total of weight
for a given piece of work many
consume as much food as one whose
weight enables him to do the speci-
fed work with great case. This
would come of the better formed
horse having, not only the proper
bone development and well-round-
ed-out muscles where he needed
them, but corresponding vigor in
his digestive and assimilative pow
ers. Then, again, two draft-horses
of, say ], 400 pounds each, might so
vary in their forms as to easily
make a difference of one-fourth Of
the load that could be drawn by
either.
The breeding of horses fit for
fast work, in some degree, has
been brought up to a better point
Unquestionably the breeding of
draft horses has, to say the least,
kept fully abreast of the other.
This is shown by the fact that not
more than one well-bred draft
horse in twenty fails to move with
case any load that is adapted to
his size and weight, while not moro
than one in twenty thoroughbred
or trotting-bred horses come up to
the expectations of those engaged
in breeding them. This is, of
course, q random estimate, but is
it not in either case under, rather
than over-stated? Predicating an
opinion upon these facts, it is not
necessary for any many man to
continue the use of inefficient hors-
es upon the iarm-or, for that mat
ter, for any duty whatever-as IN
from four to five years from date
of coupling, If selections are wise
ly made, the entire increase of
working age may be so changed
and improved as to greatly change
the model and improve the eff
cheney. The keeping of horses
that are inadequate to the work
required with efficiency, is fairly
represented in the retaining of an
inefficient set of hands on a given
piece of work, where less num-
Der, possessing greater adaptabili-
ty, would do the work much more
satistactorily.-Natlonal Live Stock
Journal.

1t takes 400 pounds of wire to
run one stran of fence mile, OF
about 1900 pounds for a four wire
fence.
With posts SO feet apart it takes
160, 80 feet apart 1T, and 20 feet
apart 274 posts to the mile.
1t takes one-quarter of a mile Of
fence to inclose acres in a square,
one-half for ten acres, three-quar'
ters for 20 acres, and one mile for
40 acres.
Eighty acres can be inclosed
with one and one-half mile, 16O
with two miles, 800 with three, and
$40 with four miles of fence.
At present rates three wire
fence can be constructed at a cost
not exceeding 500 and four wire
fence at $50 per mile.
1t may be well enough to remark
that no fence composed entirely OF
wire has been recognized as law
full fence by statute in this state.
