HOW TO PLANT LIMA BEANS.

It is almost a universal practice in New
Jersey to plant lima beans by thrusting
them into the ground with the eye down
ward, farmers claiming that the bean is
not SO likely to rot and the plants appear
earlier than when the seed is set
otherwise. The idea in planting lima
beans in this way probably originated in
some one observing that when q bean
sprouts both root and stem start from the
eye and the bean is lifted above ground
the two catyledons becoming the first
pair Of leaves, usually called the seed
leaves. This is true with all species and
varieties of the bean, while with peas,
which belong to the same family of plants,
the seeds remain in the ground or
below the surface when they throw up
q new shoot. We have always practised
planting lima beans the same way that
we do other kinds, that Is, drop them
on the ground and cover them with a
hoe, and we have yet to discover that it
made any difference whether seed was
covered when lying on the side or set up
on its edge. Try row Of limas next
year, planting each alternate hill in the
row different, and see if those with eyes
down succeed any better than those with
eyes up; or on the side, laying the bean
fat-and covering with hoe--Neao York

Than all the stars can yield,

tits gift from Nature sent
For mortals to increase;
IT meets you with smile at morn,
1t lulls you to repose;

An everlasting rose.

To snatch the brow from care,
Turn tears to smiles, make dullness gay
Spread gladness everywhere.
And yet tits sweet as summer dew
That gems the lily's breast,
A talisman for love as true
As ever man possessed.
What may this wondrous spirit be,
With power unheard before
This charm, this bright amenityf

That woman homeward brings,
And can the poorest peasant lift

HINTS ABOUT HORSES.

Once during lifetime is all any man
need expect to be suited In family horse.
Be kind but firm with the horse; petting
is as much out of place as abuse. Feed
the horse out Of trough placed on the
ground, this Is not only the most natural
position, but it prevents the proper eleva-
tormuscles of the shoulder becoming rigid
and fixed, which by constant use of high
managers and tight refining Is frequently
the case. How often do we see horses
worked In towns to heavy carts or light
carriages unable when turned out to grass
to get their heads to the ground without
setting the fore feet out wide, sometimes
going down on one or both knees, OF set
ting one leg forward with the other as far
back aspossible. Twelve quarts of good,
clean old oats, with twenty-on pounds of
good, clean old hay, with a sprinkling of
salt, Is sufficient ration for an ordinary
sized horse for one day. Beans are the
most muscle producing food given to
horses. Horses in the habit of swallow
ing food without thoroughly masticating
can be cured by covering the bottom Of
the feed-trough with loose stones about
the size Of an egg.
Never offer unsolicited advice for the
medication of neighbours sick animal
II Il RECEIVERS you have nothing to gain,
and good deal to lose if 1t dies. Be-
fore venturing to use or prescribe q
medicine, become thoroughly acquainted
with its nature and action; better leave a
sick animal alone to nature than impose
blind assistance. Never buy horse
afflicted with mucous discharge from
one or both nostrils; by general OBJ
servanoe Of this much could be done to
prevent spread of CHAMBERS, equivalent to
thousands of dollars in some districts.
Never trot or run horse suffering with
tympanitic collie, which presents a swol-
len appearance. Walk the animal slowly,
OF allow to roll at pleasure, taking care
to provide q suitable place. Carrots

before breakfasts good for horse

have been sacrificed by the ignorant
practice of administering medicine

of the old line companies. 49,.
mend the old line companies, in such case,
for two reasons: First, such carclessness
should be made to pay as high as posi-
BILE for its fun; and second, such man
ought not to impose upon his neighbors
who form the basis of the farmers mu-
tual companies. We saw man not long
ago smoking while he was currying his
horse in the stable. He said he had done
it for years and had not had fire yet.
It is possible that q man might smoke in
powder mill for years without causing
an explosion, but he would be very
reckless man who should attempt it. 1t
needs but spark among hay or straw to
burn down barn with the probable loss
of all there is in It. Never do anything
which is likely to cause. q fire. If a fire
in the barn does occur, there is one thing
that it is well to remember. Horses are
frightened tout of their wits" by fire.
You cannot lead horse from burning
barn in the ordinary way. The best way
is to blindfold the animal. This may be
done by throwing a coat or blanket over
the head Western Rural.
