UNDUE HASTE IN FATTENTNG.

Make haste slowly is a good rule to
apply generally. Animals that have been
summered on grass will not bear, profit
ably, to be pushed on grain feed during
the fall, as haste in this direction dis
turbs digestion. Under the action of
the laws of nature things are, many times,
made to afford rest to follow an undue
exertion of given part, or Of the whole
body. Under this law, the appetite is
taken away when overlooking has been
practlsed, that compensation, through
rest of the digestive organs, may occur.
gDisgust of food always follows over
feeding; yet it is theorizing falsely to say
What If the beast gets too much food, it
Will reduce the amount taken, volun-
tarlly, when surfeited, because deranged
RhgestiOn follows at once upon excessive
feeding, and then what follows? Moth
Ing less than an interruption of nutrition,

Rnd during this time we suffer double

lhere is still another reason why dam

butter, are tainted by near approach to
certain vegetables, as well as by being in
proximity to decaying or noxious sub
stances of any kind.
The absence of tests in this direction
may rightfully be termed an oversight, for
the perfection of meats has not yet been
fully accomplishments in fact one of the
things least Disseminated upon, and re-
ceives less attention than is given to any
other kind of food in use. Therefore, we
deduce from the hints given, that the
fall feeding should be commenced with
care and moderation; the limit always
being inside of the possibilities of the
digestive powers of the fattening beasts.

as the powers of digestion are developed

MOLE CATCHING.

The presence of mOlGs, says the M0rk
Lane express, is generally regarded as in
dicative of good soil; yet the farmers
first object on acquiring such soil is to
get rid of them. They are destructive
to drains, and deadly enemies to the com
mon earthwOrm, which Darwin has APP
praised at high value as medium of fer
tilization in the soil. Indeed, their food
consists mainly of the common earth
worm, though other insects such as mag
gotS, which fall into their tunnel are
readily devOurcd. These latter no person
will grudge them, but they work irrepar-
able havoc to crops. They usually in
habit strong, good land. 1t is contended
by some people that they assist in the
work of aeration, so necessary for the
successful management of land. Doubt
less they open up the soil, but, unless
when digging well down in pursuit of
grub-and then they interfere with the
Misunderstanding the water-they should
by all means be kept down, and if posi-
BILE, stamped out.
This subject has been suggested to"us

are various systems of mole catching.
Traps of various kinds are used. The
wire tray has been in vogue for we'll nigh
thirty years, and is an etfectual method
if care is taken to use it in proper part
OF fresh tunnel. In some instances the
\ wire trap, however, has been thrown aside
N-superseded by the use of poisoned
6worms. This system is held by its advo-
Gates to be equally as sure as trapping,
while it is lighter work. Either of these
methods in the hands of a sl1iilful mole
catcher will effect a complete eradication
of the little foe, but the mole-pest is not

STARTING A POULTRY YARD.

This is a good time Of the year for be-
ginners in the business To commence keep
ing poultry A correspondent of the
Orange Jldd Farmer has written the fol
lowing hints for beginners. He says:
Let me here indicate in brief, from my
own experience and observation, what
you ought to do for success with poul-
try:
Never set your hens with the laying
fowls. | have done this and suffered loss
by it. Sitting hens should be kept quiet
no one should 60 near them but the at
tendant.
One cock is sufficient for the same flock
of hens. usually give one to ten hens.
Keep an egg record. Be accurate in
this. Keep an account of profit and loss
this will help you in many ways.
Have a warm, dry house facing south.
Be particular about this in our climate.
Always isolate a sick fowl. A mistake
here often destroys the whole flock.
Do not overfeed your birds. Feed just
what they will use up without waste. Fat
hens are poor layers. Too high feeding
renders the digestive organs weak and in
duces disease more than anything else.
Do not change blood too frequently.
1t will run your hens out to do so every
year. You can improve your stock in
this way: Each season pick out say five
of your best pullets and one cockerel and
breed from these. Next year take the
same plan. After doing this three years
you can change the blood by buying a
pure breed cock from some reliable
breeder. Never mind if you pay a good
price, as the dearest is the cheapest in the
end. This is my experience.
See that your hens have a good run, so
that they can take enough exercise. Idle
ness leads to mischief in the case of hens,
as in the case of higher class of bipeds.
Never breed from hens over three
years old as the stock in such cases is
usually weak. Make up your breeding
pens early in the season.
My experience with Leghorns has
taught me that chickens Matched in April
or May do the best, as they grow rapidly.
You don't want "Asiatics" so early, as
they feather slowly. May, and even
June, will do for them in this climate.
You, as beginner, may now be in
clined to say: "This is too much work. "
Let me, from an experience of twelve
years, state the simple fact: That sue
cess in poultry raising depends largely on
these seemingly trifing details. Every
little detail tells in the result desired.

REsrK1cr1oN ASSURES SUCCESS.

The Orchard and Gdrden credits the
late Z. P Roe with the following sensible
remarks: 1.-THE secret of success in
small fruit culture might be found in two
and restriction. By
stimulation he meant thoroughly pull
verified and enriched soil. This is es-
pccially essential to the strawberry, the
foreign raspberry, and all the currants. A
rampant growing raspberry like the Cuth
bert or Turner, and our vigorous blackber-
ries, do not require stimulation, but they do
restriction. BY restriction he meant the
development Of fruit rather than wood or
vines. Set out strawberry plant in very
rich, deep, moist SOIL and its tendency
is to follow the great law of nature and
propagate itself; but to the degree that
it makes plants it cannot make fruit.
Cut off every runner and enormous fruit
buds are developed. The sap is damned
up as a miller restricts stream, and the
result is Strawberries that are double in
size and quantity. This is equally true
with raspbcrrics. Currant bushes crowded
with wood bear but little fruit. "

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
PHOSPHATE FOR GRASS LANDS.

Grass is of the same order of plants as
is wheat, and it is therefore only natural
that what helps the grain should benefit
il also. Old PASTURES that have run down
50 that the grass is thin may be greatly
helped by narrowing just as fall rains be-
@in, sowing timothy seed, and with it a
dressing Of 200 pounds of phosphate.
Not only will the grass next season De
more abundant, bat stock Will eat 1t more
closely, showing that it is richer in nutri-
ton than that grown before being fertil-
lied. Grass grown by the aid of fresh
BARNARD manure may be rank and often
sive, while that grown with bone or any
mineral fertilizer is palatable to stock,
especially to mich COWS, which use much
bone material in making good milk

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Whitewash is good for tree trunks.
Halter break the colts while young.
A poor tree is better than an open field.
A healthy SOW that is sucking a litter
of pigs is a ravenOus eater.
Stock like salt now as we'll as in sum
mer. See that they have it.
The celery crop, especially that on low
land has suffered this year from too much
water.
Carnations make good winter growers.
They should be planted firmly in good
light soil.
Easier for you and better for the tree
to use your thumb in summer on super
numerary shoots than to use the knife
next spring.
Medium sized varieties of corn, espe-
cially with short jointed stalks, are bet
ter either for dry fodder or ensilage than
the average, coarse, tall-growing varie-
ties.
No farm is complete without a good
house to store the implements in, and no
farmer understands his business that does
not store his implements when they are
not in use.
No variety of corn should be used for
ensilage that will not mature in ample
time to be gathered into the silo before
there is danger of frost. Plant so thin
that considerable grain will mature.
Keep the house surroundings, stable
and sheds clean as we'll as the house it
self, then will the numerous brood of
summer ills be diminished greatly and
the comforts of home as greatly increased.
If you wish to breed hens alone for
eggs, select one or more breeds that will
lay the greatest amount of eggs under all
circumstances. If your market demands
a dark-colored egg, select the fowl that
lays that kind, and vice versa.
The idea, too often. entertained, that
judges at fairs award premiums because
of personal favor, has very little founda-
ton in fact, for all managers Of fairs
want favors bestowed because of merit,
and will not accept judges of doubtful
integrity.
Wood ashes even if dry should not be
used for a dust bath Road dirt, plas-
ter or sifted coal ashes with small guam
tity of air slaked lime will be much bet
ter than wood ashes. 1t will be found a
very valuable aid for the fowls to rid
themselves of lice.
