Arkansas Girls.

A story comes from Mountain Home.
Ark, of two girls. Mary Welles and
Julia Roberts, living on adjoining
farms. They are typical Arkansas
girls and can handle a rifle better than
most men in their neighborhood, so
they do not hesitate to tackle the big
gest game in the woods. During one
of their hunting trips lately they went
to \ wild turkey roost. built blind
and waited. As they lay in ambush
they heard the approach of what they
supposed was man, but it turned out
to be bear. Mary fred at it, and the
animal, maddened by the pain. made a
dash at the girls, catching Mary. She
screamed, and as she was being dragged
away Julia ran close to the bear, and
placing the muzzle of her shotgun,

POULTRY PlCklNGS.

WHEN turkeys are kept confined they
need heavy feeding.
YELLOW dropping often means indi-
gestion rather than cholera.
YorsG chickens will eat wheat very
readily when two weeks old.
THE best sankey's for breeding are
those that are two years old.
A GOOD dust bath gives the fowls a
chance to clear themselves of lice.
SULPHUR and tobacco burned in the
poultry house will rid it of red lice.
COOKED food fattens rapidly: one rea-
son for this is that it is easily digested.
If the hens are expected to lay regu-
larly during the winter the quarters
must be SO warm that water will not
freeze.
BY planning to hatch the pnllets in
February they can. if good care is
given, be depended upon to begin lay
ing in September.
LEAVES and chaff make good litter
for floors. by scattering grain among
it the fowls will be afforded an oppor-
tunity for scratching.
DURING the winter if comfortable
quarters are provided the laying hens
should have good feed of wheat daily.
There is nothing better for eggs.
TuRrENTINE and sulphur given in the
food when the weather is damp is one
of the cheapest and best preventives OF
gapes. Keep the fowls dry after Civ
ing sulphur.-St Louis Republic.

Value of Green Manures.

the results of experiments to determine
the fertilizing value of green manures
are considered. The fertilizing value
of green crops is found to be proper

their nitrogen is changed to nitric acid
Dried blood and sulphate of ammonia,
two active heterogeneous fertilizers, and
Il green growth Of lupines We're used as
fertilizers, and the growths resulting
from this fertilization compared. On
heavy soils the lupines proved much
the best fertilizer, the reason for which
seems to be that they kept the soil
lighter and looser, allowing freer cir
culation of air. On the light soils,
where the air circulates more freely,
the sulphate of ammonia proved most
effective, and the lupines next Other
similar experiments, in which green
alfalfa replaced the lupines, gave re-

Raising of stock.
southern writer, while little
brnezy in laying down rules for grow
ing clover, gives some good advice in
what follows: Permanent pasture and
meadow grass lands are regarded bv
progressive farmers as indispensable in
successful raising Of stock. Since their
necessity is recognized it only remains
to discover the quantity Of seed. nutri-
tiousness and adaptabil.ty to the eli
mate and soil in order to succeed. Any
land that will bring good wheat will
bring good clover. and any land that
will bring good oats will bring good
grass. This is simple rule. and. il
followed. will save much troublesome
speculation. So many are discouraged
in their early effor5s by the adultera-
ton OF seeds, that we would urge great
care being taken in their selection.
Every section of our country demands
good permanent pasture and meadow
grass lands. Winter feeding is now as
necessary in the west and south as it
has long been regarded in the north
and east The west, since the aban-
donment of the free range system. finds
It absolutely necessary to prepare win
ter feed, either of domestic or wild
grasses. Cattle there are confined
within limits and, in sewers weather,
their ancient privilege of rustling at
large is now denied them. The south
finds it to her interest to investigate
and adopt the most nutritious grasses
1t she would not lose in competition
with winter-fed stock brought to her
markets from more northern states.
Good. rich meadow grasses not only
make the sweetest and most nutritious
hay, but the cheapest feed in the
world. The Inexperienced farmer has
suffered many disappointments in OBJ
tanning good pasture and meadow
lands, and this has been attributed to
various causes We cannot too
strongly recommend to those interest
ed in the best development of their
stock and soil, that they supply them
selves with books of unquestioned au-
thority on the subject of grasses. and,
in fact, on every subject pertaining to
their vocation. Too much reliance on
crude ideas may prove in the end {.
costly investment. Hi sbandry is as
much a science as med.-iac or engi-
neering, yet many farmers scarcely be-
lieve it. Rather are they inclined to re-
gard as superfluous any study Of the
subject at all. and elect to blunder
along in the old rut or in ruinous ex-
pertinent II their profits are small
and mode Of procedure burdensome, it
may at least arouse them to the neces-

that it is quite as essential for the
farmer to seek the assistance of COM

Marriage A a Life preseryer.

A certain set of philosophers, in
capable of feeling affection for any
one but themselves, have delighted in
sneering at love and marriage and
have argued that bachelorhood is the
only conservative state. Their theory
is not borne out by the statistics of
married and single life in modern
times, SO far. at least, as the masculine
gender is concerned If longevity is
desirable, then it is better that we
should marrs than remain bachelors;
for, it appeass, that at every age, from
twenty to eight-five, the death rate of
the benedicts is very much smaller
than that of their minated brethren.
Gentlemen who prefer short life and
a merry one to prolonged lease of
matrimonial placidity, will probably
agree in opinion with the cynical phi.
losophers. and Fireside.

Saving Mlce-Girdled Trees.

Mice girdled trees can be easily saved
if attended to in time by using scions
two or three years old to bridge over
the 81 died part. Editor Thomas OF
the Country Gentleman reports the
case of 1000 girdled young pear trees
saved in this way. The owner, at his
suggestion. employed three house car
penters to do the work, because they
were accustomed to handling tools, and
they did it nicely. Four scions were
used on each tree, and not one tree was
lost or failed to make good growth.
