Divine Origin of Agriculture.

In a recent address on "Agriculture as
a source of prosperity" Col. J. B. Mayard
of indianapolis, Ind, used the following
beautiful language: "We read that God
himself planted the first garden. He
fixed its foundations Each fruit bearing
tree and each Towering shrub took its
place in the. garden. Eastward in Eden"
by the direction of Jehovah, as certainly
as the stars with which he decked the skies.
We think of God as the builder of the
universe, of suns and planets and systems
of worlds, but it should be remembered
that he came down to the earth, not as on
Sinia amidst thunder and lightning, but
in Eden where he planted a garden
and placed Adam in it to tend it. Here,
then, and say it reverently, we have the
Creator and Adam, proprietor and tenant
engaged in the first agricultural and
horticultural enterprise of which history
supplies an account. Hence, I claim for
agriculture heaven-Ordained rank, pri-
NAL exaltation, such as belongs to no
other occupation known to the human
family. And | anticipate period, not
remote, whom young men will esteem it an
honor ttO be known as agriculturists,
scientific tillers of the soil, and when
agriculturists, by their learning, their
ability and their influence, will compel
the acknowledgment that agriculture, by
the vastness of its investments and up
hold contributions to the wealth of the
country, is entitled to distinguished recog-
milton in the affairs of government"

this summer, for the wheat crop is al
most everywhere coming short of what
was looked for early in the season. Con
siderable threshing has been done in
Suffer, and the farmer reckons that not
more than half an average will be har-
vested in that country. Reports from
various sections of Butte agree that the
yield at best is only medium, and &C
counts from Solano are equally disap
pointing. In Colusa, sooner after the
recent norther, an estimate, placing the
damage to the crops at $2,0O0,00O, was
deemed extravaganza, but last weeks Sun
declares that the loss in that country,
those two days, was 100000 bushels of
wheat. eve would" he says, "have had
100000 bushels. Now 100000 is
large estimate of what we will have to
sell. The loss to the white wheats have
averaged from go to 20 per cent, and to
the club not less than an average of Is
per cent, and some say 20 per cent. From
every one who was cutting before the
wind we hear of a vast difference in
grain cut before and after the wind.
There are sacks to sell on all sides by
people who have purchased too many"
The San Joaquin Valley seems to have
suffered less by the winds, so only slight
injuries are reported. The barley har-
vest is turning out farley, and very
heavy and plump grain is being secured.
The late nay regions are turning out
we'll.

then offered resolution instructing the
conferees to insist on the striking out of
the senate amendment making an appro-
priation for the Hennepin canal. In one
minute speeches Neece and Plumb oppos-
ed the resolution. The house then re-
sumed consideration of the Northern Pa
cifc land forfeiture bill. The question
required npon the house substitute for
the senate dill, and it was agreed to; yeas.
ia; nays, 65. The senate bill as thus
amended was passed-yeas, 155: nays, As
and request for the conference was
made. Mr.. Reagan, of Texas, called up
the Interstate commerce bill. The speak
er announced the question to be upon the
substitute report by the committee on
commerce as the Reagan bill, and for the
senate bill, the Cullom bill. The house
then adjourned.

Preparing Land for Wheat.

n. j. Sheper1 IN Farmer and StOckman.
The work of preparing land intended
for wheat should be commenced as soon
as possible after the grain is stacked.
PIow well and reasonably deep. If the
land has had shallow blowing previously,
1t is not good plan to pillow very deep
now. Too much new under soil thrown
upon the surface Will not produce as good
crop as when greater depth is secured
gradually. After blowing, narrowing or
dragging should be kept up, so as to
pulverize the surface thoroughly. If the
solbcan be well packed underneath, and
then worked into a fine filth Oh the sur
face to the depth of two or three inches,
it will be in good condition to receive the
seed. Do not permit the weeds or grass
to make start. You not only have your
soil in better condition by attention to
this suggestion, but you run much less
risk from Hessian fly.
If 1t is intended to apply dressing of
of manure to the crop, let it be done after
the land Is plowed, and before the ground
is narrowed. ! prefer this plan to pIow-
ing under. The larger proportion of
wheat roots are near the surface, and the
manure should be kept near the top
There are three plans of applying ma
uuFe TO WneaI. one Is to spread 1t on the
ground after the wheat is stacked, and
then blowing under; another way is to
make top dressing after the wheat is
sown, spreading it evenly; the third
method Is the one have mentioned above
as that followed by myself to
the plowed ground and working in with
the harrow.
| like to pillow early, so that the weeds
and stubble will be thoroughly rotted be-
fore the wheat is sown. Then, too, there
is plenty of time for the ground to be-
come thoroughly settled before sowing
the seed; and as the fly derives its susie
nance between the time the wheat ripens
and time 1t starts to grow in the fall,
from the volunteer Vegetation, it will be
seen that early blowing and frequent
narrowing materially aid in keeping down
this pest. Ordinarily 1 prefer to SOW
wheat reasonably early, provided the soil
can be put In good condition and there
Is moisture enough to cause quick ger
Inlnatlon; but if the field is badly infested
with ny should undoubtedly wait until
nara frost before sowing. Do all the
work thoroughly. There is nothing gain
ed by seeding large acrege on poor, lily
prepared land. A more profitable crop
can be grown by sowing less acrege on
ground properly prepared.

Brood Mares and Colts.
Practical Farmer.

The mare should be given roomy
stall; liberal diet of oats, bran and hay
Is necessary. If mares foal in early
spring, or at any later period, it is essen
tial to the well-being of the offspring that
they should be turned on pasture for at
least three weeks before foaling to get
used to the change from dry food; foals
will stand what expose the bans have
been accustomed to. How often does one
hear one hear of the loss of foals from
cold, Inflammation or diarrhea through
mares being turned out on succulent pas
lures for the first time after foaling.
Mares kept for breeding purposes only
not required to work-are better for hay-
ing dry food given after foaling, mares
should have oats given them morning and
evening; then gracs alone will be suffi
cient. Foals VIXEN month or five weeks
old should be shut away from their dams
for an hour or two each day to be taught
to eat dry food, such as bran and ground
oats. Before weaving, the foals can be
separated from the mares longer at a
time; and thus, when taken away entire
ly they will not lose flesh to the same ex-
tent as they would if suddenly taken
away from their mothers and weaned. 1t
is strongly advised to raise young ami
mails on pasture instead of in loose boxes
or warm yards. We do not, however,
wish to be misunderstood as supposed to
be advocating this treatment in all cases
as in this case, for instance, of back
ward or delicate foals. We have never
known a case of injury from eating
frosted grass. By this treatment the
growth of bone, muscle and hair will be
encouraged, the constitution strengthen
ed, the elasticity of action retained, while
the danger of getting over on their joints
or letting down at the hooks is reduced to
minimum. Foals require good and
suitable dry food during the winter
months. AT no other period of life will
they so well repay the outlay. Size will
never afterward be obtained unless the
foals are well grown when young.

FARM, HOME AND GARDEN
AN OLD STORY.
TEMPLE BAR.

When the spring was beginning and May day was
On a country girl spinning, the King cast his
eye;
Fair flourish the roses near The court wall,
Rnt the rosa of the hedges is fairest of all
Let me hide my fools face meath a lying tsmb-
For the world s going a-Mdying, l NOPE here
alone
So said the jester, who sat on the steps of the
throne.
But the blossoms viii fade which The thoughtess
have torn,
And the cheeks of a maid will grow withered and
worn,
Why should there for such a small matter be
woe,
Since each hedge and village, such roses will
show?
King 90 to your wine; pretty maidensl go
moan;
When its meat hath been mumbled we leave the
picked bone,"
So said the jester, who sat on tie steps of the
throne.
Yet peasant is grinding his knife, sharpe and
strong,
And silently winding his way through the
throng-
Then the dogs must be driven from licking the
gore
OF : monarch struck down at his own palace
door,
Though her name be jibe and her affairs DER
thrown,
In the emf, gossip Justice Will seize on her
own"
So said the jester, VIII sat on the steps of the
throne.

Feeding and Driving Horses in Hot Weather
Practical Farmer

GT2cGlCdl L dTIu6F.
Cold is one of the best tOnics as an in
vigorator of digestion, as well as of ner
vous energy and muscular cOntractibility.
Heat on the other hand, takes out the
tension from all the tissues, chemically,
as 1t does out of Ovsrheated metal; and
physically, by lessening the appetite,
and IN the manner stated re-
Taxing, and thus enervating, the func
tiOns. If the owner or driver could but
realize that ennui overtakes the horse
precisely as it Overtakes the man when
oppressed by heat and fatigue, and how
ever much the lash may be brought into
requisition for the purpose of infusing
new energy, the reaction-relaxation
following the hurt caused by the whip
leaves the poor brute more exhausted
than before.
The trouble in hot weather is that the
horse, as mentioned, can, not replenish
rapidly enough to enable him to keep up
a severe strain continuously, simply be-
cause the appetite and digestion are
weakened and the relaxing effect of the
heat is enervating. This emergency may
be met by driving in the early morning
and in the after part of the day. If the
drive continues all day, one of the best
the shade for half an hour, loosening the
check; and, while taking this little re-
spite, if the horse can get access to bite
of grass for five or ten minutes, this will
be found to be wonderfully inspiring.
Driving with a check short enough to
glue WEAKNESS to the neck when the heat
is facilitating is one of the most unwise
practices that can be uentured upon. The
horse, if checked up at all, should have
this done very moderately, and an occas-
ional stop at the water trough, the check
being taken off, will give great relief.
Frequent watering, small amount being
INDUCED in, is best; and the principal
feed should be given at night, that it
may be eaten at leisure and digested and
assimilated before morning. To impose
the carrying of half a peck or more of
oats within the digestive organs when
under exertion is unwise, and should,
whenever possible to do so, be avoided.
