SANDY SOIL.
a Farmer Who Thinks 1t the Best of A

a Farmer Who Thinks 1t the Best of All.
Sandy soil, well managed, says Henry
Stewart, in the Country Gentleman, is
the best of all kinds. 1t absorbs the
rain and holds it firmly; its porosity
keeps it dry in wet weather and moist
in dry weather; it enables the air to
pass in and out of it freely at every
change of temperature and condition of
moisture, and also exerts that active
oxidizing effect upon organic matter, as
manure or composts, which is we'll
known to DO property of all porous
substances, and thus such soil makes at
once available an application of manure
by decomposing it very rapidly and con-
verting it into plant food; it is easily
titled, may be worked weeks in advance
of clay land, and in twenty-four hours
after a rain, when the working is the
most effective.
1t yields the best quality of wheat,
thin, clear-skinned and heavy in the
grain; the very best and brightest bar
ley; the heaviest oats; the very finest
potatoes and roots; and being warmed
up quickly by tho suns heat, which it
absorbs greedily, it yields the finest
corn, clover and forage crops. 1t is
healthful to live stock and to the owner.
1t is generous, kindly in disposition,
tractable and, when literally treated,
it returns favors promptly and abund-
antly. Like the greatest virtue of hui
manity it is thrice blessed, it blesseth
him that gives and him that takes; but
also like everything kindly and good it
pines for kindness and generosity in re-
turn. 1t is thankful for small favors,
and gives guild pro quo for the least it
receives. I would rather work sandy
loan farm than any other kind, and if
the right kind of sand is there, the loan
will soon be made of it by blowing in
green crops and by the use of fertilizers,
lime included, as well as manure.

A Bad state of Affairs.

From all over the country come re-
ports of threatened foreclosures of
mortgages on farm property. In Penn
sylvania many supposedly rich farmers
have failed because Of the depreciation
in farm values. In Southern New
Jersey several hundred farms are be-
ing sold by the sheriff. AS our readers
know, reports from many parts of the
West are no better. What is to he
done? This country can not afford to
have its native-born farmers driven
from their farms to be replaced by a
tenant peasantry. For number of
years past great mortgage and trust
companies have gradually secured a
grasp on thousands of American farm
ers. When the present occupants of
these farms are driven away, who will
be secured to fill their places? No
true American can view this state of
affairs without alarm. The present
condition of American agriculture de.
demand the prompt and careful atten.

These Ines of Pinckney bring before the
mental vision woman Of surprising beau
ty, challenging admiration and homage
This sentimental tribute was, no doubt,
worthily bestowed by the poet, but it is
prosaic fact that large numbers of our fair
country women are deficient in personal
charms, because they do not try and con-
Guer the disorders peculiar to their sex, and
from which SO many o. them suffer mar
tyrdom. As it is the ambition of every
woman to look her best, let the afflicted
ones use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription,
and thus recover their health, without
which there can be no beauty.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is q le-
gitimate medicine, not beverage; carefully
Compounded by an experienced physician,
and adapted to woman's delicate organiza-
ton. 1t is purely vegetable in composition
and perfectly harmless in any condition of

ate; no syrup or sugar to ferment in the
stomach and derange digestion.
As an invigorating tonic, it imparts

Chicken Manure.

The old idea that chicken manure is
a complete" manure, suitable for all
crops seems to be losing favor with a
good many gardeners. A notable in
stance of the new way of dealing with
this substance was given two weeks ago
in the account of the one-horse farm in
New Jersey. On this farm, it will be
remembered, the chicken manure was
used as the body of homemade fertil-
izer, dissolved bone-black, muriate of
potash and plaster being used to prop
erly balance the fertilizer and give it
the proper mechanical condition. We
hope to have more to say next week
about the proportions of these sub
stances used. The use of this home
made fertilizer saved the farmer over
$500, which sum is supposed to equal
the cost of mixing and portion of the
nitrogen added to freight charges,
agents commission, manufacturers
profit, etc, etc, all of which were paid
for when complete fertilizers were
bought. Now is the time to consider
whether for your soil chicken manureis
complete" or ''one-aided" fertilizer.
BY the way, ''stable manure" is sup
posed to be complete. Has it ever oc-
CURED to you that there may be almost
as wide proportionate difference be-
tween two samples of manure as there
is between ''low-grade" and high
grade" fertilizer? Again, if the stable
manure is complete your farm may be
so "one-sided" that you need to add
something to the manufactured New

SWINE BREEDING.
Tho United States First Among All Ma
tions in This Industry.

tions in This Industry.
The United States stands easily first
among nations in the number of its
swine. There has been some decrease
in the last few years, but the estimates
in the Department of Agriculture gave
the number, January l, 1883, at 43, 544,-
755, or nearly seventy-fve for each 100
of human population. This estimate
is made out at season of the year when
the total number is nearly at its mini
mum, as very large percentage of the
pigs are produced in the spring months,
and vast numbers of fattened hogs are
sent to slaughter during the closing
months of the year.
The abundant and cheap production
of Indian corn is the controlling factor
in pork production in the United States.
Thus the seven great compromising
States are estimated to have had, in
round numbers, 90, 500, 600 hogs, or al
most half the total number, and an
average of nearly 100000 for each
State. Their respective rank was, Iowa,
Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, Kansas, Indi-
ana and Nebraska. No other State had
1000, 900 hogs save Texas, and the poor
quality of these largely Offset the large
number.
The rapidity with which swine in
crease, says the Agricultural Depart
ment, the early age at which they may
be proftably be sent to market, the case
with which the meat may be preserved
for future use, and the large use made
of the fat, as also the abundance of
maize so we'll adapted as fattening
food, have made swine breeding popular
in all the great Indian-corn-growing
regions, while the readiness with which
one or more pigs may be utilized as
profitable means of consuming waste
products from the table and dairy have
caused farmers and many village resi-
dents in almost every part of the coun-
try to annually fatten at least a few

FARM AND GARDEN.
COOLING MILK.

Something About the Use of Ammonia
Where Ice Can Not BE Obtained.
The chemist of the Victorian Gov
eminent gives some interesting infor-
nation about cooling milk by the use
of ammonia.
In butter making-if uniformly high
quality butter is desired-as soon as
possible after milk comes from the
COW, the cream should be separated by
the centrifugal separator. Then i'm
mediately, and preparatory to churning,
the cream, if not already cool, should
be cooled down to temperature not
exceeding 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The
main object of cooling is to harden the
fat globules, so that, during the churn-
ing, they may fall together in firm
grains. The butter thus obtains a
granular" structure, rendering it more
thoroughly cleansable from the butter
milk; it also acquires waXy consist
ency, whereby it's keeping qualities and
palatableness are improved. For cooling
the milk various appliances are in use.
Where the operations are on fairly
large scale, u small ice machine will be
found most suitable and economical.
Ice machines capable OF producing four
hundred pounds of ice daily, at an esti-
mated cost of six shillings per diem, are
now being placed on the Melbourne
market. Such machines could easily be
used on large farms, and would prob
ably be found we'll suited for district
milk and dairy factories. The cart
bringing the milk to these factories
could take back with them their daily
supply OF ice.
Where ice is not procurable and there
is not sufficient supply of cold water
for cooling purposes, perhaps no Sim
pier and cheaper means can be adopted
than freezing mixtures" If crystals
of ammoniac nitrate and chloride be
dissolved by gentle stirring in water, in
the following proportions: Six and two
thirds pounds ammoniac nitrate, three
and one-third pounds ammoniac chic
ride, ten pounds lone gallon) of water,
the temperature of the mixture will
quickly fall 81 degrees Fahrenheit.
Thus, if the temperature of the water
was originally IS degrees Fahrenheit, it
would, after solution of the salts, fall to
"a degrees Fahrenheit, or degrees be-
low freezing point. If a long, narrow
tin containing such solution be stirred
about in cream can, it will in few
minutes reduce the cream to the re-
quired temperature. The cooling salts
having been once dissolved, may be re-
obtained for further use by evaporating
the solution to dryness. The evapora-
ton may be in open, shallow pans with
fire, or even the sun and hot wind may
be sufficient Or it may be convenient
ly done in old kerosene tins cut in half
lengthwise. If fire be used for evapo-
ration, it should be gentle fire, and
the solution should not do more than
simmer, otherwise there may be loss
from splashing.
