should greatly influence the course of the
farmer in growing them. To gain o rich
maturity, corn especially, should not by
too late, or too thlckly planted, and it
hould have well prepared land with
thorough cultivation.
Rest is absolutely necessary sometimes.
This Is never more true than after pro-
tracted spell of good hay weather. IL
rainy days are frequent, there are many
things that may be attended to on the
farm. One 90 the good practices is that
of clearing up the land in the highways.
Although such fodder may not be needed
in this year of plenty, it mar be mown IN
doubtful weather and piled up for man
ure or used as q mulch for trees.
In planning the size of silo allow
twenty cubic feet for every months feed
ing of 1000 pounds live weight of ami
mails TO be fed. This ia to be for the
space occupied by the ensilage when
fully settled, and makes due allowance
for loss and waste, sure to occur to some
extent. For example,: A silo ten feet
wide, twelve feet long and twenty feet
deep, in full, the contents settled to fif
teen feet deep, would hold 1s00 cubic
feet of packed epsilage, or about forty
| tons, enough to feed ten COWS thirty
pounds of ensilage daily, including waste
for nine months,

USEFUL HINTS.

Animals appreciate clean bed at
night. It is not to their comfort to allow
straw that has been saturated with urine
to remain in the stalls. The best bedd-
ing il cut straw at present. Later on
leaves can be used to advantage.
To secure good seed corn for next year,
the farmer should begin while the corn is
growing to make observations. He
should note and mark all prominent
stalks, rs the early maturity, vigor asd
prolificacy are ss important as the germ,
nation of the seed.
Sow oats and Fsas together, and turn
the crop under as soon as il covers the
ground. A large amount of green man
ure may be grown and plowed under il
this manner, rs it is not necessary &c
secure q heavy growth. AS fast as ont
crop is plowed under, seed down TO an
other.

EYergreens ON the Farm i.

The severe storms of the past few win
ters have set q great many people to
thiaking about planting evergreen wind
breaks as a protection for farm build
ipgs, cattle yards, etc. Medium sized
evergreens, that is, those two TO four feet
high, are expensive TO buy, costly in
freight, and difficult to handle without
more or less loss. If of native seedlings
taken up in the northern wood the loss is
sure to be heavy, spite of the best care.
II from well managed nursery stock, the
liability to loss is great, since if the roots
once become dry their vitality is destroy
ed. The writer has I'D considerable ex-
perience in growing evergreens for orna-
meut and wind breaks, which he believes
will be of value to his readers. The
most satisfactory results have
been obtained by purchasing small
nursery grown stock once or twice
trapsplanted, and costing on an average
| $1,000 to Sl5 90 per 1000. These have
been set in nursery rows in well prepared
soil, and allowed to grow for q year or
two, when the largest can be taken ont for
permanent setting, aGd SO year by year

on the farm premises or supplying neigh

soon as taken up can be at once set in
the place already prepared, without any
exposure TO the roots, and besides, wet
or cloudy day can be taken advantage of
for settlng. Almost any nurseryman, in
filling an order for 1000 evergreens.
would allow the purchaser 70 select from
different varieties at the 1000 rate. A
good assortment for the northern locali-
ties would be something like the follow
ing, viz: 200 each of Scotch, Austrian
and white pine aud Norway spruce, and
100 each OF American arbor vital and red
cedar from northern grown seed. These
for real utility. TO these there might be
added few of the novelties in evergreens
for ornament for the lawn. In planting
II. nursery rows We should plant in rowe
not less than six feet apart and two feet
in the row, ard et this distance they will
get to crUwning in little while. By pur
suing the plan above indicated, au abun'
dant supply can be obtained for all uses
on farm as shelter belts or ornament, al
small outlay of money, and at very lit
tie risk or loss; while the purchase oi
large sized nursery stock or native north
ern seedlings, involves the expenditure oi
a good deal of money, or the liability ol
heavy loss of stock and perhaps of both
