FARM, GARDEN AND

Spring Work.

A core poudtnt in the American Cult
vator gives some good advice a. to spring
renovation from which we quote as fol
lows:
"No matter whether you are resident
Of village or country, you should ere the
snow banks all disappear, or the grass
begins to grow, or the robins and blue
birds put in an appearance commence the
annual Spring Sticking up operation I'm.
less you have been unusually on the alert
during the winter, many bits of boards,
branches OF trees and other rubbish lie
about, often in the way, and always una
s'ghtly. Straw and hay has been whisked
about and accumulated in little punches
at divers places.
About the kitchen door will be found
more or less garbage, and VAIN, damp
weather causes active decomposition, and
the gases given Ch are detrimental to
health. As la grippe and kindred diseas
es have been unusually prevalent in many
sections, the systems Of great proper
ton Of the Inhabitants are In a most sus-
ceptible condition for the engendcriug
of disc ases Of the fever Tyre, aided by the
decomposition of vegetable matter. Hence
extra precaution should be exercised in
this line. A few hours of timely work
may prevent serious or fatal cases of
sickness.
The cellar needs careful attention.
Throw away all decsyed or partly decay
ed vegetables. Whitewash the cellar
walls, or If you object to whitewash on
account Of the looks and liability to rub
Off then wash the walls with strong lye
leached from hard wood ashes. IL will
destroy all germs and fungi, that may be
present. and arrest decomposition and
moss growing. II the cellar bottom is
earth scrape of the surface with hoe
and scatter the accumulation on the lawn
or in the garden. The first rain will re
move all further danger from 1t. Keep
the cellar drain open, ard on pie assnt
days open both the cellar door and win
dows that free ventia ion may be oh
aimed
Another quite e. mmon source of annoy
ance snd danger conneci.d with evely
house il the Cess pool or drainage from
the kitchen. When the kitchen Stops and
water from the sink are discharged di
recily into n well constructed drain pipe
that has good outlet some distance from
the house, either into sewer, running
stream or at the surface Of the ground,
but little trouble will be experienced, pro
vided there Is a suitable gas trap located
in the pipe near the inlet to prevent gas
es escaping into the kitchen or other
rooms.
When, however, the refuse water from
the sink and other sources is thrown up
on the ground near the back door, you
most unwittiugly invite fever into your
home. On hot day In summer the death
den ga es emanating from this see hing
hotbed of animal and vegetable corrup-
lion is direct stab at your life, and even
grass or toughest wee s will not grow on

spot as far from the house as convenient,

MIX Production.

At the farmers Institute held at tn
State House, Augusta, last winter, Hon
X. W. Ellis of Embden, spoke upon Gar
and Treatment, Profits Of the Dairy, How
Obtained
Mr.. Ellis has had long experience IL
dsiryng and spoke from an experiment
al standpoint in very interesting man
ner. He dwelt to some extent on tn,
quality Of feed that should be given tn,
dairy cow, ard said that while he ap
proved Of ensilage, he had never had any
trouble with the health of his cows by
feeding them dry hay. He spoke of thu
great care that should be taken with the
animals. They require, as do persons, 8
certain amount for the heat Of the body
and whenever there is an unusual draf,
upon the nerve force from i'll treatment
or upon the heat of the body from poorly
warmed barns and stables, so much more
food is required to make up the detc-
iency. He believed that we should raise
all our own feed and not depend on the
west for our corn. He had for several
years raised sweet corn for the factory
near his plac' ! and fed the remainder to
his cows, and found that the expense OF
raising this corn was wholly met by the
feed obtained, and the amount of good
corn that went TO the factory was so
much gain. He was perfectly satisfied
that the business was profitable.

Orchards Need the Best Land.

IL an orchard Is to be planted, 1t ought
to be given care aud manure enough to
insure its success. More failures come
from planting on exhausted soil than
from any other single cause. The farmer
knows the land needs more fertility, hence
he applies large amounts of stable man
ure. This is comparatively poor In min.
eral plant food, and usually richer than il
ought to be in nitrogen. Hence the farm.
er gets great growth of leaf and wood,
but the trees are flow to come into bear
ing. On new land the proportion between
heterogeneous and mineral plant food IL
better adapted to make healthy growth.
Hence trees come into bearing early, and
once in bearing, their management was
easier than 1t is under modern conditions.
A few years growth Of clover on land in
tended for orchards, with possibly one
or more clover crops plowed under, will
put the land in best condition for sue.
cessful orcharding. On land thus fitted
TO stable manure is needed until the trees
begin bearing. After the trees are plant
ed pea crops may be grown yearly and
fed down by hogs to keep up fertility,
sowing rye In the fall to be plowed under
each spring to give the peas start 1t
has been found that the pea crop enrich
es the soil by decomposing nitrogen
through its roots, the zane as clover does.
The pea crop has the advantage Of clover
in requiring only one season to grow It,,
and in not In juriDg growth of trees, as q
clover sod Is sure to while 1t is being
grown.

Keeping Apples In Pits.

1t is rather strange that while potatoes
and roots are often kept In pits, the over
warm cellar is supposed to be the only
place for keeping apples. Yet In out
door pits the apples can be kept at more
even temperature and with less vast
than anywhere else, except in cold stor.
age house. II the temperature goes be-
low fruit will not be spoiled, as potatoes
would be. The only care required is to
cover the fruit well with straw. 80 that
the soil will not come in contact with it
and give an unpleasant ia tie.

In our climate permanent meadows can
not he maintained. We have not tn,
moisture of the British Islands, whlct
keeps the grass green and prevents thu
droughts which destroy the roots Of th,
hardest grasses after two or three years
Heavy manuring will keep the meadow |
little longer, but even with the manure i
will not be as good as meadow newl'
see ded. The profit on cultivated crol
after well-fert lied meadow is plowet
under is greater than its value for grass
Hence, the expense OF re- eeding is ,onl,
the cost of the clover and grass seed nee
essary for 1t, which rarely amounts tt
more than : 80 an acre.
