The Devons as Beef and Dairy Cattle.

The Devons ns Beef and Dairy Cattle.
 The dairyman who looks to the pro duction of beef In connection with but ter dairying, and who is on rough, hilly pasturage or a thin soil, will hardly fail to give some consideration to the merits of the Devon cattle In the dairy dis tricts of the south of England they are highly esteemed and largely used for the dairy. It is characteristic of the Devons that they thrive better on poor and thin soils than the Shorthorns. Their milk is of rich quality, making more butter in proportion to quantity than that of other breeds excepting the Alderney. They have well shaped udders and teats. are docile, easily milked and not unfre- quently show remarkable yields But 1t is as Q beef animal that the Devon holds pre-eminence. It natures early. well repays good feeding, and the flesh is fine. delicately favored and juicy.
 In the cut is shown q Devon steer, the champion of the recent Smithfield show of England. and first winner of his class at Birmingham. The champion headed a show of fourteen 2-year-old Devons This beautiful animal. on the day of his distinguished victory was 9 years. II months and weeks old and sealed 15 cwt. qr.. his daily gain since birth being 1.G8 pounds. For thickness and frmness of valuable flesh this champion was pronounced unsurpassed though for his age his weight could nct

Things That Are Told.

Sheep and swine kept constantly on wooden floors often have hoofs grown badly out of shape. Such hoofs should be frequently pared and shortened to bring them in shape, says A. w. Cheever.
 A. L. Crosby alfirms that the best but ter cloth is parchment paper. It is prac- tically air, water and grease proof and does not stick to the butter. When you wrap your butter in parchment paper consumers cannot speculate whether the butter cloths began life as part of shirts or sheets.
 There Is no better food for breeding sows than skim milk and wheat bran says American Cultivator.

Items in Millinery.

Green In millinery appears to be as popular as ever, aud the shades for the winter are rich and becoming, especially to those women who have a reddish tinge in their hair. The flat crowned, projecting brimmed felt hats are most fashionable especially for young girls All the trimming is placed on the top. 4 novel style of trimming these hats is to fas ten one end of a soft feathery boa at the back of the hat, carry it round between the crown and brim till it meets behind, fasten it round the throat, and let the end fall over the shoulder, A few high loops of velvet are placed on one side, or well up in front An other pretty felt hat has the brim sharply turned back against the crown and lined with velvet; the front is straight and prominent, with full feather ruche carried round the brim. A deep band of velvet encircles the crown, a few velvet loops and tuft of feathers are placed high at the left side, over tapping the crown.

 condition. Sometimes the ground can be prepared and sown early In spring. if the soil is dry. or it may be best, in case of wet weather. to delay the seeding even till autumn. The work of preparation may be done by hand or by subsoiling and narrowing with horse power, ac- cording to the amount of land.
 Country Gentleman gives the follow ing advice about preparing lawn for seeding and also for turing. explaining it's suggestions with the cuts here repro duced.
 To make it sufficiently rich, finely broken manure must be worked in through the soil; this will aid in giving q green lawn in times of drought. The application of pulverized lime, ct the rate of a peck to square rod, will bo useful, if well narrowed or raked in. The grass seed should be sown on a finely pulvcrizggl. smooth. mellow surface, and brushed CT ruiirl in. so as rut Co bury the seed over half gA inch. and warm and moist weather will soon give the ncw green carpet. Tho best grass Is Kentucky blu2 Gr;Lss CT June grass,

which is fine and continues green long time. and will grow in the t!lade of trees. Red top and white clover may bn added Sow at least five or six times as much as farmers give to their grass lands. It should not bc moved closeE the first year. or before well established.
 A more speedy way of securing lawn, where thc surface is limited. is by turing. The work, however must be well done or 1t will be rough and lumpy, like Fig. 1, which represents Q section of a badly laid turf. If properly performed it will be smooth and even. as shown in Fig. 2. To secure this smoothness the turf must be cut from compact pas turc, in squares. with accurate sides, and made uniformly thick before laying, by inveTGAS upside down S5I . Hys1Id ana shaving with n sharp hoe. as shown in Fig. 8. Lay these accurately on the well prepared deep soil already described. early in spring.

4 Desirable Mutton and Wool Cross.

Any breed of sheep will do better in small than large focks. Each breed has it's fitness and best capacity for focking.
 None equal or approach the Merino in this particular. A black face cross on the common Merino eve is a desirable mutton and wool cross. Such cross bred ewes are in excellent demand for mothers on the farms of eastern Penn sylvania, New Jersey and New York and that region adjacent to the great mutton lamb market. Such cross bred wethers make most excellent feeding wethers for the grain growing sections.

SEED FOR A GIVEN LENGTH OF DRILL
Advice Based on Experiments Made at a

Advice Based on Experiments Made at R
 Well Known Agricultural Station.
 In bulletin sent out from the Michi- gan agricultural college is furnished the following relating to the quantity of seed for Q given length of drill. These quan- titles, it will be observed, are less than is usually recommended by seedsmen:
 Peas-One quart to 100 feet of drill recommended; $50 feet of drill used four quarts of McIean's Advancer, or one quart to every 2124 feet; $50 feet of American Wonder required 8 quarts, or one quart to about 245 feet of drill; $50 feet of McLean's Little Gem used three quarts, or one quart for every 2S3B feet; $50 feet of Cleveland's Alaska required three quarts, or one quart for 283b feet. The following figures will show that our sowings were thick enough; One pint of McLean's AdvanCer contains 1 600 seed. A pint sowed tri1e over 106 feet of drill, giving over 15 peas for every foot of drill, or plant every four-fifths Of all inch.
 Radishes-One ounce for 100 feet of drill recommended; ,000 feet of drill, sown thickly to Early Long Scarlet Short Top, required 91 ounces of seed. In this case the figure is not extravagant.
 Beets-One ounce to 90 feet of drill recommended. Long Dark Blood. Eclipse and Bassano each required ounces of seed for 334 feet of drill, or an ounce for S34 feet and the sowing was much too thick. An ounce of Long Dark Blood beet contains about 1 300 fruits or seeds, CT over 15l fruits to each foot of drill. as we sowed them.
 Farsnip-One ounce to 900 feet of drill is recommended; 1 600 feet of drill of Holland Grown took 1 ounces of seed. or an ol1nce to 25O feet of drill The sotr;no

 P. D. Armour, Chicagos millionaire meat packer, loves to crack joke once iu while with his employees, and appreciates 1t all the more should the mirth tables turn at his own expense. He was very much surprised the other day, however, when he was politely but firmly told to vacate his own packing house. ''Come, conle," said the man in charge, supposing he was addressing Q stranger, mo one is allowed in this department but those regularly connected with the establishment. How did you get in here, anyway"
 Well, if that is your rule guess I will have to obey orders" replied Mir. Armour, at which he made sudden break for the door. "Who Is that old fellowg" inquired the man of authority of one of his employees, pointing to the receding form of Mir. Armour. ''You mean the gentleman who just went outa"

Henry Ward Beecher, the famous preacher and fancy farmer, claimed tc have solved the problem of getting rid of the Canada thistle. He said: The only way to exterminate the weed is to plant it for crop and propose to make money out of it. The worms will gnaw it, bugs will bite it, beetles will bore it spiders will web it, birds will peck it, heat will scorch it, cold will freeze it. rains will drown it, and mildew and blight will cover 1t.
