How to Manure for Onions.

AS to manures, onions are great feed
ers and like something to select from.
l advise applying at least ten cords of
barnyard manure per acre, or its equiv
alent. Farmers in the vicinity of Bos-
ton use twenty cords of stable manure,
but l think it better to use half the
quantity of manure, and the other half
in commercial fertilizers, or, cheaper
yet, to use all fertilizer. The latter
can be applied at any period of growth,
but there is danger from using phos-
plate continuously. In Bermuda the
onion growers use part sea manure and
part commercial fertilizers One of my
neighbors uses ten cords of mixture
of barnyard manure, sea manure and
night soil, a very concentrated manure,
probably equal to double the quantity
of ordinary barnyard manure. ! rec
ommend the application of three hun
dred pounds of nitrate of soda per acre
just as the crop begins to bottom; or, if
the crop looks feeble, complete fer
tilizer may be used In all farming a
good deal of manure seems to be misap-
piled, and l suggest the use of less
manure and more of commercial fertil-
izer.-J. j. II. Gregory, in Farm and

A Heated We'll.

A strange phenomenon is reported
from the Indian nation. Some time ago
a white man named Charles Gooding,
living near Goodland, a station on the
Frisco road in the Choctaw nation, en-
ployed an Irish well-digger, Mike Du-
haney, to sink well on his place. Du-
haney began work and had reached a
depth of sixty feet. At noon, Saturday,
after eating dinner, his assistants began
lowering him back into the well to re-
sumo work, but he had hardly gone
twenty feet when he screamed TO them
to pull him out quick, that he was burn
ing up. As hurriedly as possible he
was hoisted out, but on reaching the
surface was unconscious and it required
two hours hard work to restore him.
He was found in a pitiable condition,
his clothing being scorched until il
crumbled at the touch, and his body
was fearfully blistered. The intense
heat seemed to raise from the bottom,
and coat lying on the windlass, and the
rope wound around it, were all charred
until they broke into fragments at a
touch. No flame could be seen. SIM

REMEDIES FOR SMUT.
Valuable Hints Furnished by the Ontario
Experiment Station.

Experiment Station.
The common forms of smut most
troublesome to farmers are bunt or
sinking smut and common or loose
smut of wheat and corn smut. 1t is in.
furious to feed smutty corn to cattle, as
it acts much as does the ergot of rye, and
passing through the animal system
does not destroy the life of the spores,
consequently they are ready to spread
when put on the field in the manure.
Corn smut should be destroyed by burn
ing, as the spores ripen if thrown on
the ground. The remedies given for
smut by the Ontario experiment sta
ton are to sow clean seed, or steep the
seed five minutes in solution of copper
sulphate Il pound to gallon of water),
stir constantly, then spread on floor
to dry or add some plaster or slaked
lime to dry the grain. One gallon is
enough for bushels. Another remedy
is to soak the grain for day in gal
Ions of water to which has been added
1 pound of caustic potash. Brine strong
enough to float an egg does well if the
grain is stirred occasionally and al.
lowed to soak several hours. Putting
the grain in water at 1875 degrees L. for
five minutes or 1872 degrees for fifteen
minutes will not injure the grain and
will kill the smut spores, but a temper.
allure of 5 degrees either above or be-
low fails. The seed may be put in a
coarse sack and dipped in any of these
solutions. Farm and Home.

DEPRAVED APPETITE.
In Most Gases 1t Is Due to Some Irrit'
ton of the Stomach.

In Most Cases 1t Is Due to Some Irrita-
ton of the Stomach.
A Minnesota subscriber wants to
know what to do for his cattle that are
tearing his stable down for the sake of
eating the boards.
This unnatural appetite is due to
some irritation of the stomach which
deranges digestion and causes a morbid
craving, There are various causes for
this irritation. Pregnancy, disease of
the liver, tuberculosis and the presence
of foreign matters in the stomach
balls of hair and other concretions of
indigestible matter, stones, nails-will
produce this result.
Treat the disorder as ordinary indi-
gestion by giving pint doses of raw
linseed oil and dilute nitro-muriatic
acid as solvent of the concretions and
tonic. Give two drachms of the acid
in a pint of water daily just before
feeding.
If the animals are, hidebound, have a
dry, rough coat or show other evidences
of unthrift for want OF proper nutrition,
give even the most nutritious food in
moderation in order that perfect di-
gestion may be secured Bran and
linseed mashes, cut roots with corn
meal and other good, wholesome food
should be provided, but given in light
rations- If roots are fed, be sure that
they are free from dirt
Sometimes this lumber-eating habit
is caused by sand in the stomach, taken
in with grass which has been washed
by floods, or from light, sandy soils.
In such cases feeding fine middlings
with moistened cut hay or green fod-
der will help to relieve the stomach by
carrying off the adhering sand.-Farm,

A BOXING KANGAROO.
He Can "Put Up His Dukes" With Some
of the Best of EN-.

of the Best of En-.
A marked characteristic of many of
the animals at the Philadelphia ZOO is
their love of play. In fact, most of
them seem to have forgotten that they
ever had savage instincts. The largest
kangaroo in captivity is the big one at
the zoo, which the keepers have nick
named John L." The reason they call
him by that name is because he can box
almost as well as the famous pugilist
himself
This really clever trick was taught
him by his keeper to whom he is very
much attached. One day while going
in to clean the cage the keeper noticed
that John L." hitherto morose, show
ed decided inclination to play. He
reared himself on his hind legs and put
up his props" just like fighter. The
keeper put his "dukes" up, too, and
advanced on John L." The result was
a rather clumsy exhibition of the manly
art.
But this first attempt was enough for
a starter, and the big kangaroo proved
a willing pupil, so that in short time
he could do almost everything but de-
liver the knockout blow.
Headkeeper Byrne had round or two
with "John L." recently, and he had
to hustle around the cage pretty lively
to keep the nimble animal from getting
in one or two hard punches. When Mr..
Byrne entered the cage John L."
cooked his head to one side and com.
ically surveyed the visitor.
AS soon as Mr., Byrne put himself in
fighting attitude the willy kangaroo
did likewise, and began to fiddle his
paws up and down much after the
fashion of an old-style pugilistic ex.
ponent. He slowly advanced toward
the keeper, and every move he made
had a suggestion about it of business,
When Mr.. Byrne finally left the cage
'John L." fairly seemed to smile de-
risively at the easy manner in which he
had vanquished his foe.-N. Y. Journal.

COVERING COIN.
A Leading Cause of Failure to Get
Good Stand.


Good Stand.
AS q rule early planted corn needs
less covering than that which is planted
later. That planted in loose, loamy
or sandy soil needs more covering than
that which is planted in stiff clay or
hard pan. Planting early when the
soil is wet and cold, and covering too
deep, is leading cause of failure to
get good stand. A certain degree Of
moisture and heat Is essential with
all seed, and if they remain in the
soil any considerable length of time
when the conditions for examination
are unfavorable the seed will rot. Then
it Is often the case in the spring that
after the seed is planted heavy rain
will come and run the surface Of the
soil together; followed by hot sun the
surface will dry in a hard crust through
which 1t will be difficult, if not impos-
sible, for the tender plants to pene-
trate
In determining the depth at which
the seed should be covered the season,
the character and lay of the soil must
all be considered. In stiff soil planted
early shallow covering will give the
best results AS the soil becomes
warmer and more settled deeper cover
ing can be given AT almost any time
a deeper covering can be given light,
loamy soil than in clay. Generally
two or three inches is plenty deep in a
stiff soil If planted early. AS rule,
with later planting, the depth should
be increased until the required moisture
10 obtained.
Later planting In loose loamy soil
may need to be at least six inches deep
in order to secure the necessary mois-
ture, and at times, whether planted
early or late, 1t is necessary to secure
sufficient moisture to induce good
termination, and this, with the heat in
the soil, should in great measure de.
termine the depth. Many consider
that deep planting is the best on the
supposition that the roots being deeper
in the soil are less liable to be injured
by dry weather. But too deep covering
early in the season will nearly always
prove more or less injurious. Corn is
naturally of tropical nature and needs
considerable warmth in the soil to gen
crate and grow well, and the more
thoroughly this is applied the better
will be the stand secured and the moro
vigorous start to grow. In many cases
a good plan with corn is to get the sol
all ready in good filth and as soon as
the soil warns up sufficiently to germi
nate readily, push the planting as rap
idly as possible. Louis Republic.

WILD CATS ON STATEN ISLAND.
Feline Tramps That Range From Court
House Station To the GREAT Kills

Feline Tramps That Range From Court
House Station to the Great Kills.
There are wild cats on Staten Island.
They are not the descendants of cats
that lived there in peace and comfort
many hundred years before the
advent OF rapid transit, but
are degraded and fallen cats
that formerly belonged to good families
ON the island. Civilization and milk
lost charms for them, and they took to
the woods where they spend their time
like vagabonds. They live on birds,
moles, and even rabbits. Gunners say
that they destroy large numbers of
young rabbits.
There are two classes of these wan
dering MINISTRIES. One of them may be
said to be only half savage. They go
on periodical sprees with their wild
kinsfolk, but sooner or later they re-
turn to their boarding houses. They
are always sleek and fat. The others
are homeless outcasts, the descendants
of once good and well-to-do parents,
but their heads were turned, as it were,
by eating dime novels. They are dirty
faced, ugly, ragged rascals, such as
canaries might dream Of when troubled
with indigestion. Moreover, they are
incorrigible poachers and chicken
thieves
A few generations of such cats might
in time make hunting in the woods OF
Staten Island exciting. But there is
little hope for that now. The eats
must CO. About fifteen or twenty years
ago, when the neighborhood of the
South Beech was well wooded, con.
siderable number of these feline tramps
might be found there, and some OF
them, anxious for a change Of diet
were often seen on the water front
after the fishermen had lifted their nets
hunting for fresh mossbunkers or Other
rejected fish that were thrown upon the
beach. They are all gone now, ant
their places are occupied In the summer
months by the other kind of tramps ant
pickpockets and their female friends
