Rye as a Renovating Crop.

Rye is a very good rcnovating crop for poor or worn, sandy land The pea is still better. It would bc well to give tho land little help to enable it to produce a good growth of rye to start with. We prefer to fertilize tho rye, reap the crOp or pasture it off; then plant tho peas in drills three feet apart, and apply l50 pounds of potash acid phosphate per acre. The renova- tion of very poor or badly-Worn land by means of green crops is a slow process unless aided by tho use of manure or fertilizer of some kind. We advise. harvesting the ryc crop and pea crop or dcpasturing the same, be- cause, as a rule, We can not afford tO convert directly into manure a crop that is valuable for food. If tho TWO and peas Dc harvested and fed to stock, or the latter be permitted to pasture on tho same, the land will have been consid :rably benefited. AL though the crop has been removed; the manure from the animals will be worth almost as mach as if permitted to rot on the land, and tho animals will have had the benefit of the crop for food.

A Southern HuCkleberry.

No writer ever notices our Southern
 huckleberry, which in all the gardens in and around Tyler, Tex. yields lux uries untold and unsung for the last twenty-five years or more, and now is cultivated, or rather allowed to grow,
 in the sunny hooks and corners of many an unkept and neglected quar- ter. But this little bush, growing from two to three feet high, will four ish in the poorest and driest soil in Texas, for we know of its growing and yielding berries abundantly far beyond the Abilene country and on the high est and driest hills. Therefore we conclude that it ought to be brought into notice as one of the native and truly Southern small fruits. It is be-

X Great Railroad.

Not long ago Mr. George H. Daniels, the general passenger agent of the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad, Tn ex- ending an invitation to foreigners to visit ms country, dlrectcd their attention to the fact that tho United States of America is the greatest country on earth, peopled with sixty million of tho most civilized and enterprisinr people on The globe; that the New York Central Railroad IS the greatest railroad on earth-the only four-track road in the world; that 1t started from the largest city On the continent, passed through the rich e5t and most prosperous region, touching the largest cities in the interior: is the great trunk line and direct route to that great cataract Niagara Falls, and that in all respects It reveals more of the resources and riches of America in less tune, with more safety and under more luxurious con dllonS 1haa any other route. There is much in tho above not only for foreigners, who want to sec this country under favorable conditions, but for our own restless and moving people. The New York Central & Hudson River Railroad Is the out8roWth or luxurious and prosper ous civilization and one of it's greatcst en- gincerng triumphs As is well known it IS the only line from the west to New York that lands it's passengers in that city without ferrying them across the North River. Its spacious and magnificent station Tn the heart of the city nas been for years not only the pride of New York, but lasting monument to tho foresightcd libcralty and enterprise of that great organizer and founder of the New ork Central & Hudson River Railroad sys- tenn, Commodore Vanderbilt The limited trains of this line are the finest in tho world, and it's general accommodations for the travelng public are only known and ap- preciated by that large portion of it who have been over the line and enjoyed them Detroit Free Press

COWS AND CALVES.
Nc Ono Need Milk an Tnprofitable Anl

mai Moro Than One season.
 speak from many years experienoe in raising cows when l recommend that they oc bred to come in at two years old. It is barely possible that the animal may not attain quite as great a weight at maturity as if bred to come in at three years old, but even thls am inclined to doubt, for l be- lieve it simply makes them little longer in getting their growth; but even if the size should be reduced a little what does it matter? Bigness is not what we want in a COW, but a de- veloping of the milk and butter quail ties, and it is wise to begin this early. A good heifcr that comes in at two years old has more than half paid the cost of raising at three, while the ami nal kept till then without a calf has cost double. Another reason for breeding young is that you may test the COW early and if you find she has a bad disposition, or milks hard, or that her milk is of poor quality, you may turn her into beef and get rid of her a year sooner. Cows arc so easily raised or cheap to buy, that no one should milk a bad-dispositioned or unprofita- ble COW more than one season.
 Heifers that are to be mothers at two years old should be fed literally and cared for so that they will be we'll developed, and Holsteins ought to weigh nine hundred or one thousand pounds at that age, and will if fed and sheltered as they should be. Corn should form but small part of the ra- ton, for We wish to develop bone and muscle rather than fat. l always raise the calves by hand, rather than let them suck, not only because it is cheaper, but because the calf fed by hand is made gentle by it and will be less likely to give trouble in breaking to milk. The cost of raising calf to two years old will vary with the price of grain and hay, and in different lo- calities, but is, l believe, loss than most hrmers estimate. Some years ago my family physician had Jersey COW drop very promising heifer calf. which he raised, keeping exact ac- count. He charged $S, if I recollect, for keeping the calf until four months old, when he sent it to pasture. From this date until she dropped calf at two years old he kept an account of every cent of expense, charging the bull service, as well as the cost of keep ing, and she cost him $31 25 h Waldo F.

SOUTHERN AGRICULTURAL.
How 10 Prevent Smut in Wheat and
 Oats.

Forty years observation in the Southern States leads the writer to be- lieye that smut in wheat and oats is on tic increase in the Sunny South. Every farmer should regard himself as a soldier enlisted in the service of his country to fight this bread-destroy- ing parasite. Brother farmer, ponder this fact, If no man planted smutty wheat or smutty Oats no man could harvest grain affected by this enemy of mankind. 1 remember seeing smut germs killed on seed-w wheat and oats lrore than seventy-fve years ago by soaking seed some three or four hours in strong brine made of common salt. Seed is dried in lime or ashes before sowing.
 The living germ in wheat or oats may pc killed DIV being too long in brine Two hours is long enough to destroy smut life, and not hurt wheat or oats used for seed.
 There are scores of wheat growers who never have any smut in their staple crop, washing seed in blue stone; water and salt have been found quite as good a preventive as blue stone.
 It is curious fact that the spores of this parasite grow small enough to pass from seed wheat in the ground up with sap, to the head, and attack the starch, sugar and gluten in the forming grain in the milk-stagc of it's life. Now is the time to study the life of all hurtful plants and of all crops worth cultivation.
 smut on wheat and oats does not spread and multiply in the same way that rust does d fact very generally overlooked Rust is never carried on secd-whcat or oats, but by the wind, or in common air. The weather ap- pears to control this blight 10 a large extent. Smut is easily cultivated, and is at best d stinking fungus. Up to this time little has been donc tO eXter- Glinatc this growing evil smut is do- ing more harm in wheat, corn and oats than the public secs or suspects Parasites often diminish our harvests onc-half by sucking the blood or juices of corn. cotton, wheat, oats and other crops Our daily bread is made of wheat and corn left by smut, rust and other parasites the off springs of de- fectiyc agriculture.
