with cover to open and close by means of small iron rod running down the handle. Such are very convenient for single specimens, but to pick more would be almost out of the question. Then again the fruit is liable to injury in the shape of bruises in handling.
 A very scrviceable picker is illustrated herewith. It is made as follows: Take q hardwood board one inch thick, make on 1t circle 7I9 inches in diameter and Inside of this draw another circle 6 inches in diameter. Between the two circles bore one-fourth inch holes 111 inches apart, cut the wood away from the outside circle and you have the bot tom of the picker. Next, make enough round, hardwood pegs, six inches long, to fill the holes. Before driving the pegs fasten the handle to the bottom. The handle should be a light, strong pole six or eight feet long. Now drive in the pegs or teeth, being careful not to drive too hard and split the bottom. Thus arranged 1t will catch the apple or pear on any side by the stem and bring it off with the slightest twist of the pole. There Is little danger of bruising the most delicate specimen, while quite a number of apples, etc, may be picked at time -Oranre Judd Farmer

A VALUABLE GRAIN.
The Magnitude and Importance of the Ca
 Crop of the Country.


 Comparatively few persons have an ad- equate idea of the magnitude and i'm portance of the oat crop in this country, yet It's uses for man and beast are sc various that 1t is entitled to rank among the most important of the farmers pro- auctions. The enlargement of the area and increase of product have been very large since 1880, but there is little diff ference in the rate of yield, which has had an annual average of about twenty six bushels to the acre, with an average price of thirty-two cents. From product of 417,ss5, ,3S0 bushels in 1880, the crop amounted to 70l, 735, 900 bushels in 1888. As producing State Illinois was in the lead with a production in round numbers of 187 ,o00, 900 bushels, followed by Iowa with 67,000, 900 and Wisconsin, Minne- sota, Kansas and New York with from 43, 900, 900 to 40, 900, 900 respectively.
 For the present year (1SS9) the crop has suffered in some sections from un- favorable weather at harvest time, but with an increased area 1t Is estimated will exceed that of 1888 some 30, ,000, 900 of bushels. The oat is cultivated through wide range of latitu de and on a greater variety of soil than any other grain and is liable to fewer injuries The proportion of husk to kernel and the compactness of the grain determine the value of the variety.
 Oats are remarkably well-balanced food. Containing as they do large quantity of the most valuable constitu- putS they apOrOach what nav he called a perfect food, although they contain larger proportion of bulk and fiber than any other grain, such as wheat and bar ley. A great variety of soils can be used for their production, and on land of good fertility large crops can be made As human food the grain is in constantly increasing use, and for animals it Is al- most universal Y World

A Source of Pocket Money.

Farmers in many parts of the West are deyoting more attention t0 poultry, and the profits from this source in many cases keep their homes supplied with numerous useful articles. The poultry yard is certainly worthy of attention from all farmers. Poultry raising is profitable, if it is sensibly and method ically pursued. It Is branch of farm- ing which requires but little hard work and space, while it carries with it much enjoyment. l know of nothing equally profitable which can take it's place. In running farm. etther large or small, to Lcave out poultry would seem to me to osnit one of i.s best features and also cut of a steady supply of ready money foc householi purposes which would soon be missed, II. l..

How to Keep the Tubers Ira Good Con-
 dition for the Spring Market.
 Properly keeping potatoes for the spring market is point of importance. Not al who grow large quantities of po- tatoes have suitable cellars in which to store them. Thousands of bushels must be wintered in pits. The question of SO caring for them that spring will find them sound and n yerfect condition is the proper point to consider Rotting, sprouting sweating are tho sources of injury. To prevent these is the aim. If potatoes are sound and healthy when put in the pits and are properly cared for these conditions arc not likely to arise. To protect them from heat and daI7p is DO less important than to protect them from frost.
 Keeping them too warm in the fall and too cold in midwinter are general causes of destructioyl to potatoes w1ntered in pits. They should be in cool condition before bGiFg covered with dirt. Then eover weAl with straw and lightly with earth, leaG ing tho extreme top of the pit withont earth, that any heat remaining or Generating in the pit may escape. fr'ttect the pits from the sam and rain byfa roof of boards, under which there is A free circulation of air, until cold weather comes. Thus the tubers arc kept dry and cool and the earth ie dry. Frost will not penetrate far into dry earth, but it will go deep into that which is wet With the coming of winter sui ficient covering to protect against froSts will generally keep the tubers in excel- lent condition.
