sible. And if this could be more thor
oughly understood. and farmers would
make the proper effort to take advantage
Of 1t, there would be much less COM
plant of the fertility deteriorating.
But if the largest amount is made it is
necessary TO keep a sufficient number of
stock upon the farm to consume profit
ably all that be raised or grown, to pro-
vide sheds or stables, or feeding lots
where the stock can be made comfort
able, decreasing in this way, as much as
possible, the amount of feed necessary to
keep each head of stock in a good condi-
ton, and at the same time increasing the
number of stock that the farm can be
made to carry, and at the same time bav-
ing the herding all together. Using a
sufficient supply of bedding TO keep the
stock clean and at the same time absorb
and retain as fully as possible all the
liquid portion of the dropings.
These are the three most necessary es-
sentials, to which may be added care in
feeding so as not to waste feed, often
combining materials so as to increase the
quality; keeping only good, thrifty
stock; proper handling, SO that all, or as
nearly so as possible. the valuable prop

that the largest amount of benefit can be

If large fields are secured the main
tanning of the fertility is one of the inn
pOrtant essentials and this can only be
done by reasonable efforts to make, save
and apply all the manure possible, and
to save SO that it be the most valuable
as fertilizer, and then apply in such a
manner that the growing crops may be
able to realize the largest amount of
benefit.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Corn Stalks.

We have often referred to the great
waste occasioned on some farms by feed
ing corn fodder in such quantity that the
cattle would only pick OFF the leaves.
On a recent visit to a section of Maine,
where sweet corn is grown for the pack
ing shops, the writer saw good illus
tratiOn of the two methods of feeding.
Two barns were visited where fodder
from the same kind of corn was being
used. The corn was a large late variety,
and the stalks SO juicy that the small ears

and put in the barn. zone of the men
said. and his word is good anywhere,
that he had as good mess of boiled
corn November goth as he ever had, from
ears that were not full when he put the
fodder in the barn before FROST. In one
Of these barns the sweet, green, juicy
cornstalks were six inches deep along
the barn floor where they had been taken
out Of the Managers and about cord of
them piled up to get them out of the
way. In the other barn where the same
breed Of cattle were being fed with PIE
ciselv the same kind Of fodder, we asked
the man if he had any trouble in making
his cattle eat the stalks, and he said {:

often or too much at time.-Mtrr0r

Roads and Road Making.

At the recent meeting of the COnnec-
ticut State Board of Agriculture, Mr.. J.
b. OlcOtt gave a lecture on roads and
road-making, in which some very sensi-
bic suggestions were made. lie en-
phasized the fact that it is not necessary
TO so hurdle roads while under repair as
to render them impossible to the public
He said: "Gravel carts should never
have tires less than six or eight inches
wide, and 81 Ould make a new track
every time, pressing the newly laid ma
terial so hard that no roller would be
needed for finishing off the surface
Wide wheels begin to. improve the road
at the gravel pit, and keep it smooth
and hard so far as they are used. Tip
the gravel on the surface of the com
pleted road, then with a coarse rake haul
the larger stones to the bottom of the
fill leaving the finer material upon the
top Fill and finish as you go along, for
gravel never treads so we'll as when first
dug, before it dries. There is set to
good gravel as there is to mortar, and
both need to be used when in their best
condition. When a surveyor finds he is
making a road worse by working on it, it
is time for him to start for home. Water
bars on hill roads should be made to
stop water, not the travel, as is too often
the case"
Mr. OIcott's ideal two-horse cart for
road work has three shafts and but two
wheels. In his opinion the steam-roller
cannot compete with a good wide
wheeled cart.-Ne10 York World.

Hints on Strawberry Culture.

The covering which is put on the
strawberry bed in the fall, says James E.
Parmly, in the Neoc York O6ser0Ir, need
not be taken up until after the crop is
gathered. The mulch keeps down a great
many weeds, and those that do appear
through it may easily bepulled up. Run
ners, also, do not have the same chance
to take root in such bed as they would
have in the open ground, and they can
therefore the more easily be pulled off.
After the mulch is removed in the sum-
mer it is we'll to hoe the bed thorough
ly and as deep, especially between the
rows. as possible. AS the season of bear
ing is quite short, the food of the plant
should be, so to speak in ''predigested'
state. For that reason it is well to do
the greater part of plant feeding in
the fall, thus giving the fertilizer good
opportunity to become Incorporated with
the soil. This condition will be met if
stable manure with plenty Of hay or
straw is applied in the fall. The
fertilizing qualities of this mixture
will be washed into the
soil and incorporated with it by
the time the plant begins to grow in the
spring; and the hay or straw will be left
perfectly clean and suitable for pro-
tecting the plant and keeping the fruit
free from the soil. Care should be taken
in the spring to free the crowns of the
plants from contact with the mulch.
Those who desire to apply commercial
fertilizers to the crop can do so by
spreading them before applying the
mulch Another appli alton of the
fertilizer can be made in the spring
when one is disengaging the crowns of
the plants from the mulch. I highly
recommend applying commercial or
concentrated fertilizers to straw berries,
as the straw berry is a hearty feeder and
needs forcing during its short period OF
bearing to give good results. Highly
heterogeneous fertilizers will make berries
OF very large size, but of poor flavor and
too soft for successful mar Neting. Some
complete fertilizer Will answer the
purpose better. Those who live neal
the sea shore will find eel grass and the
variOns kinds of sea-weed beneficial as g
mulch. These salt water growths con.
tain valuable fertilizing qualities.
Home Made Manure the Best.
If properly managed, writes n. j.
Shepherd, in the Wisconsin, AgricultUriSt
the manure that can be made and saved
upon the farm is undoubtedly the best
and it is easily possible for every farmer
to make it. And while at the same time
1t IS the best it can also be made the
cheapest, because if properly managed
all the cost will be the necessary hand
ling, hauling out and applying, and nc
matter what kind of fertilizing we use
We will find it necessary to do this much.
While there are few fertilizers so com
plete or thar will show the effects so long
