ish decisions Of the English courts ON
this point a few years since. Most, if
not all, of those judgments have been re-
versed, and now the National Federation
of Butchers and Meat Trade Association,
assembled at Liverpool, resolved as fol-
lows: "That this Federation is in favor
of dishorning being legalized as a means
of preventing injury to cattle in transit"
No doubt Parliament will soon pass a
law legalizing the practice, though all the
good such a law could do would be to
put the burden of proof on the person
who makes the complaint. Now it is
necessary for the defendant to prove in
each case that the dehorning does not
cause unnecessary pain. The cranks are
getting tired of sympathizing with the
vicious brutes that use horn, while for
getting the innocent creature that gets
gored. This is q good sign, and We may
all hope 0 to see the last of dangerous

IMPROVEMENT OF room LAND.

The use of green crops for the improve
ment of poor land is not so easy as is
commonly thought. Green manure is.
most effective on good land, and for the
purpose of maintaining its fertility, rather
than of restoring it when this has been
lost. The crop to be plowed under, Of
course, adds nothing to the land that has
not been taken from it. But it is very
rare that any land is SO impoverished that
a thorough blowing and a dressing Of
lime will not bring some crop that may
be turned under with benefit. It might
be suggested that such land be plowed
two inches deeper than it has been pre-
viously, and given a dressing of twenty
five or thirty bushels of lime to the acre.
Then SOW with buckwheat in June, using
one-half bushel of seed per acre. Then
SOW one peck of clover seed per acre and
harrow ii lightly with a brush harrow or
a plank drag. This covering of the seed
secures it against a spell of dry weather
that might occur.
The buckwheat is harvested in the
usual manner, and the clover will make
a sufficient growth to go through the
winter safely. The mex year a crop Of
hay is taken, and the second growth is
left on the land, to be turned under for
corn the next year. When the corn is
laid by the land is sown with clover again,
and the seed is covered in by light v
shaped harrow run through the rows.
The corr is worked level. 80 that the
seeding may be as even as possible. This
alienation may be made ONCE more, when
the second growth of the clover is turned
under for wheat, and 200 pounds of
superphosphate Of lime may be applied
per acre. BY proceeding in this way
and blowing deeply the land may be-
much improved in a few years.-New

RYE As A GREEN MANURE.

When I bought my present farm OF,
sixty-iye acres in the fall of the year,
writes Joseph Smith of Michigan, /
found it in a badly rundown condition.
Not one acre of meadow was on the
Mace. and the tenant declared that it was
too poor to raise clover. / commenced
by putting in the best portions of the
farm to fall wheat, and the poorer parts
to fall rye. During the winter / cut
wood and hauled 1t down to the city,
and when / could not get a load of
ure given to me, / could usually buy a
two-horse load for twenty-five cents.
This I used rs a top.dressing on the fall
crops, very thinly, of course. In spring
/ soWed clover and Timothy seed on the
wheat and 50 much rye as ] had top

five toothed steel harrow, which served
the double purpose of covering the seed
and ining the manure. The balance of
the rye / left to grow as best it might
till about the first of june. Then / pro-
ceeded to pillow it down with a weed

horses whifietree and back to the ploW.
i then rolled and fined the soil to hasten
the decomposition of the rye, and after
properly pulverizing and again rolling, I
planted it partly to potatoes and corn,
sowing the balance TO fiat turnips. In
August there was a good growth OF bot
toms. I pulled the larger ones to feed
the stock, as at this season of the year
the pastures are suffering from dry, hot
weather. Then | ploWed down this
mass of vegetation and again rolled and

next year there was no trouble in locat-

early spring, will be all the moister dur

longer on one piece than another, it means
doubling the crop of marketable tubers.
a few days extra growth means making

NoncoaEoraist.

The term nonconformist Is e aRsnnal one, under which all the religipu com munities which do not conform to the liturgy of the church established in England may be comprehended; but t belongs more properly to the hrgs body of clergy who at the Restoration refused to subscribe to the act of uni formity, and were, in consequences, elected from their benefices on St Bar tholomew's Day, 1869. This act was first promulgated by Elizabeth, and re- quired all the clergy to use the Book of Common Prayer" and inflicted severe penalties upon any ons who should be convicted of speaking CT preaching against it
 The act of Charles contained stiIl stricter provisions, enjoining every bensfced person not only to uss tho book, but to declare bis assent and consent to every part of 1t and enact ing that unless this WIS done on eer- tain day he should be ejectsd from his benefice.
