When the deposits on the rocky is
lands off the coast of Peru were first dis
covered, the shipments Of guano were of
high quality, the average percentage of
ammonia ranging from 1898 per cent. in
the lowest sample to 1894 per cent. in
the highest But there came a change,
and as the old deposits began to be
worked out and newer ones took their
place there came also a reduction in the
quality, and instead of Is per cent. to Is
per cent. of ammonia and "a per cent. of
phosphates, many of the shipments went
far below these figures, and where there
was nitrogen equal to 10 per cent. of am
monia the sample was exceptionally
good. There are now, however, says the
Mark Lane Express, indications of re-
vival of the old gusno days. Since the
Peruvian corporation took the matter in
hand a search has been made among the
thousands of rocky islands which exist
on the west coast of Peru, where the
birds have their breeding grounds, and
large deposit of high class guano has
been found. As this has been found in
the rainless zone and has hsd time to get
into that mature friableness which was
such Characteristic of the earlier ship
ments. the discovery is q valuable one,
rs the shipments which have arrived in
Europe prove. Several samples have
been taken, and these show an analysis
from l2 to 10 per cent. of ammonia, one
sample showing as high as is per cent.
There can be no doubt but that these
shipments mark the beginning of a new
era in the history of guano, and one
which will be marked once again by the
greater use of that manure

Harvesting Timothy Hay.

Farmers differ considerably in their
ideas and practice in regard to the proper
time for cutting timothy for hay so that
the best results may be secured from the
feeding. Among other trials made at
the Maine station TO practically test this
question fourteen plats were used. and
on one-half of each plat the grass was
cut July |, when the timothy was in full
bloom, and that un the other half July
Is. The hay from each cutting was
weighed at the time of putting in the
barn and again the following April. ana
lyzed, and its digestibility determined
with sheep, two animals being fed on an
early cut hay and two others on late cit
hay during five days.
The yield per acre Of grass cut July
was 4, 92S pounds. and that cut July Is.
6,0Ss pounds. As would be expected
from all previous analyses, the early cut
hay proved 10 he the more heterogeneous
and also the more digestible. From the
early cut hay 5e.O7 per cent. of the or
ganic matter was digested. and from the
late cut hay only 5O.7 per cent official
digestible material the late cut hay
proved TO contain the more, the amounts
per acre being: Early cut, 2,02s, and late
cut, acre pounds. These figures stand
somewhat in opposition to those obtain
ed from the crop Of lsss, where the
larger amount of digestible material was
obtained from the early cut hay.

Culture of Garden Vegetables.

culture OF Garden Vegetables
In the report Of the horticulturist Of
the Maine experiment station, for 1891,
certain points in the culture of cabbages,
tomatoes and eggplants are discussed.
In the culture Of cabbages il was found
that the best results We're obtained by
transplanting several times. Plants
grown in fiowerpots till ready to be
placed in the field We're better than those
grown in boxes. Ii was observed that
some varieties Of cabhages are attacked
by the cabbage worm much worse than
Others. Those varieties having firm,
close heads are least injured. of the
twenty varieties grown, those recon-
mended for general culture are Jersey
Wakefield. Brunswick. Early Summer
and Flat Dutch. The old Early York is
condemned.
The following is a summary of the
experiments in tomato culture: l. An
important requisite TO successful tomato
culture is that the plants he kept growing
vigorously: a condition involving rich
soil and frequent tillage. 2. Frequent
transplsnting makes stocky plants s.
Other things being equal, the earliness
and productiveneSs If tomatoes Is in d.
rect proportion to the earliness of setting
in the field. 4. Trimming plants after q
part of the fruit had set increased the
yield by more than One-third. 5. The
best varieties for general use appear to
be lgnotum, Perfection. Beauty, Golden
Queen. and possibly Prelude.
Elephants are not extensively grown
In Maine, but the varieties recommended
for home use are Early Dwarf Purple
and Early Long Purple.

GAPSs IN CHICKENS.

Some Approved Methods of Combating
This Troublesome Disease.
AWorld correspondent writes: .Ihave
never met a poultry keeper yet who was
not interested in gapes and couldn't name
. new remedy for them. There are of
course several approved methods of COM
batting this trouble. That these still
continue TO be recommended is pretty
good evidence that, in some cases at
least, they prove effective. As gapes
will be to the fore now and for some
time TO come among the young chickens,
l will mention few of these remedies.
lone authority says: If cases occur, at
once put fluid carbolate, camphor or
lime in the water. If there are many
cases place the chicks in cold pit (gar-
den frame) and fumigate with vapor of
carbolic acid till they are nearly suffo-
Gated by the fumes. Care must be taken
to hberate the chicks at the right mo-
ment or death will ensue, but if this is
well done it is an effectual cure.
''Stoddard says that camphor has been
used with success given in the form of
pea, and that alum and sulphur in the
form of fine powder blown down the
throat will destroy the worms. Lime in
the air will also effect the purpose, and
may be applied by putting the chickens
into box covered with fine muslin and
sitting fine lime through this, but not so
fast as to smother the chickens.
Another remedy is spirits of turpen-
tine, few drops at time. By some
persons a diet of crushed corn, soaked in
alum water or kerosene, is considered
good. This last remedy does not appear
at all reasonable TO me. Gapes are caused,
as every poultry keeper is likely to learn
some time in the course of his experience,
by small red worms in the windpipe,
which obstruct the passage, so that f.
nally the chick chokes and die. To re-
move the cause is to remove the disease,
and the chicken, if not too much weak
ened, will recover.
For a few chickens. l think the feather
treatment ought undoubtedly to be called
the best and surest cure. This consists
in stripping the feather from quill five
or six inches long to within about an inch
of the top, then double this portion over.
Wet this with turpentine little diluted
with water, or with mixture of twenty
drops carbolic acid TO one ounce glycerin.
Push the feather down gently through
the valve of the windpipe as far as it will
go; then draw it up, at the same time
twisting it quickly around. If you have
performed the operation dexterously, the
worms, or a part of them, will come up
with the feather. 1t may be necessary
TO repeat the process in order to get the
worms all out. OF course this remedy
IL somewhat severe on the chicken, if
not skillfully and gently done, and it
cannot be applied to large flocks because
it requires too much time. There is,
believe, an absolute preventive for this
trouble, viz, keep the chickens on dry
ground and keep the yard and houses
clean. Wet and filth are the greatest
enemies of the poultry yard"

its eggs in the young beans soon after

THRsSHING GRAIN.
Why The American Cuitivstor Thinks
That Late Thrashing Is Safest.

Why The American Cuitivstor Thinks
That Late Thrashing Is Safest.
The advent Of horse power and steam
thrsshing machines has nearly every
where been signalized by increasing ear
illness in getting grain out of the straw
Why farmers who are in no hurry TO
sell should want To thrash directly after
harvest has always been puzzle to US.
We suspect il Is not the farmers who
are hurried. II is the army of travelling
thrashing machine owners, each in
search Of a job. When they get one it
is a signal for all the farmers in the
neighborhnod Ia follow. As the owner
of the machine seductively puts the
case, The may not be around again until
very late. 1t is better to thrash while
days are long, so that jobs can perhaps
be finished in a single day."
81, 10y these and like arguments, the
dirtiest and most disagreeable work Of
the whole year and the one that always
requires the severest labor is crowded
into the hottest weather. Not only this.
but the grain is often injured because
got ont of its Chaff before drying out.
We believe in some cases where grain is
cut green that il may take sap from
chaff. if not from stalk, while drying
out before being thrashed. In the case
of barley this increased weight of berry
from late thrashing is of great impor-
tance.
What is gained by early thrashing?
Simply the satisfaction of knowing how
much crops have yielded, and having q
nasty job ont Of the way. So many
thrash early that it is rare that farmers
get any better prices for that first mark
eted. On the contrary, as this is the
time when those most pressed for money
are obliged To market their crop, the
price at this time is apt to he depressed.
In most localities there is too much COM
petition in thrashing. If one machine
owner will not take the job late, there
are plenty others who will. Many small
jobs may I've better left until cold
weather and I've thrashed with fail than
to pay rates that the owners of expen-
sive thrashing machines are obliged to
charge. II. aS We believe. the tendency
among eastern farmers is to grow more
fruit and vegetables and less grain, il
will necessitate more hand thrashing in
winter. This will furnish winter work
for help needed in summer.
