FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Begin early on the weeds.
Sunlight is as necessary as corn.
Silage is not substitute for hay.
Exercise is cheaper than medicine.
Fresh water is abundant and cheap.
Carbolic acid is cheaper than cholera.
Did you ever SOW beans in drills2 Try
it.
Lime is cheaper than rupe and fumiga-
ton than lice.
Parsnips sown early make an excellent
food for stock.
Don't neglect to prune the rose bushes,
cutting them well back.
The wild cherry trees form breeding
place for the tent caterpillar.
The hen is a scratching bird; therefore
let her scratch-but not in the garden.
The best stock is the cheapest; there
fore never sell the best and never buy
anything but the best.
A crop of bucxwheat will rid land of
the wireworm, says Professor j "A. Luilie,
New York State Entomologist
Eastwood is pronounced by good au-
thority probably the best honey plant in
the world, all things considered.
The Southern CuItiUatOr does not con-
slider any green crop turned under de-
sirablc preparation for a crop of peas
BY planting sweet corn every week for
a few weeks, supply of green fodder
may be had the whole season through.
Wick pronounces the spirea one of our
best towering shrubs, ranking next to
the hydrangea for general effect and case
of culture
"Always have q nice bunch of hay be-
fore the calf, to induce her to eat, there
by expanding the stomach" advises a
cattle breeder.
No good housewife can set good table
without plenty of eggs. Hence the
necessity of every farmer keeping nice
flock of poultry.
Calves should be watered regularly,
says farm authority. They often suffer
greatly from thirst--the milk not being
all the drink they need.
Feeding silage from the top, rather
than cutting it down from the sides, is
considered preferable by Professor Cook
and many other good authorities.
In no other way can the farmer so radi-
cally do the work Of nature 70 his advan-
tage as by using tile; for underdrainage
both lengthens the seasons and deepens
the soil,
Any novice can propagate current and
gooseberry bushes from slips, and every
/ home should have ut least half acre
devoted TO this kind Of fruit An acre is
not too much for the most Of our homes.
silage as change Of food for stock
will cause cholera in horses, afiirms II.
Talcott, Assistant Dairy Commissioner OF
Ohio. SO, when you commence, feed
only little. Il is safe to feed il to
I mules
If lamb dies in a flock where there
are twins Of the same age, take tho dead
/ out Of the sight Of the mother, strip OF
it's skin and sew it upon one Of the twins
+ Put the latter with the bereaved eve, and
she will quickly adopt IT,
Ono Of the most important matters IN
farming is TO have your seed entirely clean
Wheat should be cleaned Of cookie anC
oats Of sunflower seed before sowing
And where the land Is foul 10 may b,
easily cleaned by summer following.
Good sheep, good land and good root

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
REMEDY FOR ROSE BUGS.

Rose bugs are killed by means Of a
spray Of water in which insect powder is
mixed in the proportion Of one teaspoon
full 10 gallon. This is sprinkled over
the foliage by hand-spraying syringe.
The most effective fertilizer for towering
plants IS solution Of pound of nitrate
of soda in barrel Of water, of which a
quart is poured around the plants directly
after shower or when the shower is fall
ing. In dry weather this solution is in
furious, as il rapidly increases in strength
by evaporation of the water. A good
liquid fertilizer is made by infusing wood
ashes and hen manure in water; about
one shovelfui of each to barrel of
water.-Neso York Times.

 At morning, when the winters sunlight seemed to come with gentle tap at my window, raised up and extended welcome; and at evening when, on the other side of the house, the sunlight wavered and bade me goodbye for a day, I nodded a reluctant farewell. Day after day I saw the sun arise and day afte~ day I saw it go down behind the sassafras- girted ridge At morning the sun arose. as Longfellow would have said, with shout, but at evening it went down, as Addi- son would have said, with sigh. The water of the creek, now overspread with the dark mantle of winters chill, gurgled in cheerless rhapsody, and the snowbird, upon a limb that wavered threatened dip into the stream uttered cold but encouraging song. The field lark, whose feathers were rufiied by the barn. boys sudden shout, flew away, and, alighting upon the fence post, pro- claimed a new and frost crested morning. The old yellowhammer, that had roasted under the wagon shed, ch!ded the redbird that presumed to come into the barn. and the frisky "sapsucker," ofcious and praise wanting, alighted on the top of dead tree and declared, in loud and ringing song, his right to dictate the musical cast of all the birds that flew unto his rhythmic and music spreading

The valuable mare which P. A.. Russell, of Ct Harrington, sold to Chas.
 Copeland, of Seymour, Conn.,, was shipped by rail from Ct Burlington last Thursday, but while the train was nearing Canaan the mare fell in the car and broke one of her hind legs. The car was switched in here, and the mare taken to W. H. Camps barn. Three or four veterinary surgeons have been in attendance at different times but they could do nothing to help her. After the mare had been allowed to suffer horribly for nearly five days some humane people came to her relief and took the responsibility of hastening her death. There is question as to who is responible for perm itting the mare to suffer untold agony for several days,
 but certainly someone deserves to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
