Clover for PouItry.

Clover is an excellent poultry food,
not to be fed alone, but with grain. II
takes the place, to great degree, Of
the green food which poultry get for
themselves when allowed to run on the
farm in summer. Pack a few barrels Of
it away and see IL it doesn't pay, in the
increased number Of eggs and bet
ter general health of your fowls. Green
second crop clover should be used--the
younger and tenderer the better. Pack
it in heavy, iron-bound barrel, such as
a vinegar or cider barrel. TRAMP" the
clover in, little by little. pressing it
tightly as possible with heavy piece
Of wood-a piece of cordwood, for in
stance. Pound and jam 1t down until
every bit of space in the barrel is full,
then put on a cover, aud on top of that
a heavy stone, and let your cheese
stand for month. The stone ought to
weigh two hundred pounds, and then
your clover will come out solid block,
that can be cut in slices. When you
want to feed it. take the barrel apart
and put your clover cake on box or in
some dry place. Shave of thin slices
with sharp knife, and feed to the hens
at noon instead of grain. Pack enough
Of the clover to last until you can let
your hens out again in the spring. and
after feeding 1t see II your receipts In
eggs don't fully gay for all your trouble.
The hens are as glad to get filling food
as horses are to have hay.-Farm, Field

THE MAPLE SUGAR CROP.

The bulk of the sugar crop for this season
been smaller than for many years, and it is
estimated that not more than half of an
average crop has been produced. The total
annual production has been about - 600.
600 pounds during the past 10 years, but it
is doubtful if the yield of 1890 will exceed
makers in Franklin county who has an
orchard OF 2OOO trees, reports making but
1000 pounds this year against 5000 pounds
last season. Many farmers report the yield
to be less than two pounds to tree thus
far, which is a small average yield per tree
The scarcity of the proiuCt is already felt
in the market by the high prices at which
the article is quoted. Good tub or can
sugar is selling in many PAGES for 10 cents
and fine cake sugar from - to Is cents per
pound. Maple syrup sells from 50 cents TO
81 per gallon Large ord r. have been
