PASTURES NEAR The BARN.
From the Baltimore American J

Two good pasture lots constitute
an important item in farm econ
omy, and should not be over
looked. The editor has al
ways found it a very necessary
part of farm management to have
a pasture, if it be three or five
acres in extent, near the barn, to
use at night for COWS and horses.
A good night pasture can be made
as valuable as any part of the farm
The cows should never be confined
to the stable or barn yard in sum-
mer, if it can possibly be avoided.
They feed much better at night
than during the day, and if they
can feed at night will give more
and a better quality of milk. 1t is
very handy to turn out the working
horses after they have eaten their
grain rations in the evening, or
give them the run of it during Sun
day.
The day pasture is Usually at the
furthest part of the farm, and it
takes too much time to take the

What wonderful things we teach
to these little people who are around
us every day! What views they
get from us of truth and honor and
obligation! We call Master jennie
tip and lecture him on the enormity
of that little fib of his; and within
half an hour afterwards, he hears
us tell Mrs. Nextdoor that we are
so glad she came, when we greeted
her card with ooh dear, there's
that horrid woman again. We
teach him, by example and precept
that it is noble and generous to
give away things we don't want;
and in every way we strive to make
of Johnny a little fraud, whose
word is not to be depended on,
and whose sensibilities are ut
terry blunted, or have never been
awakened. 1t must be confessed
that we are not always prepared
for the result, and that Johnny
sometimes astonishes us with his
success of our own training, but
that it does succeed there cannot
be the least doubt. We reap as
we have sown oftener than one

lofty purpose, meteor like, and be-
ing swallowed up Of darkness.

The papers throughout the State
have recently recorded a great NUM-
Der of runaway marriages, and i'll
every case they have run merry
headlines, such as love laughs at
locksmiths, or "They fooled the
old folks" A chuckle Of delight
seems to go through the press
whenever two young people have
succeeded in Guiding father and
mother and being safely married,
and there is a disposition among
people who are utter strangers to
the parties to assist them in their
escape. The tone of the press and
this sentiment among the people
are largely responsible for many of
these runaway marriages; and it is
my deliberate opinion that the re-
sponsibllity is heavy one, and that
too little consideration is given to
it,, 1t is increasing the disregard
that the younr people Of the pres
ent day have for parental authorl-
ty. 1t is always to be supposed
that the father and mother who
have watched over a girl all her
life, who have cared for her through
her helpless infancy, who have
clothed and educated her, who have
kept her welfare always nearest
their hearts, and who would will
ingly give up their lives for her, if
need be. desire nothing more earn
estly than her happiness. When
they object to her union to any one,
the probabilities are that they be-
lieve she would be unhappy i'll such
a marriage, and the event proves
that in nine cases out of ten there

cows down after milking at night
aud to go after them early in the
morning, when the grass and bush
es are covered with a very heavy
dew. 1t not only takes too much
time, but time is valuable, especial
ly during the busy season, when
every hand is needed and every
hour counts.
Have two pastures, if it is posi-
BILE; the one near the barn and the
other as handy as it can be. The
next important point is to. have
both pastures well set with a
variety of grasses.
An excellent plan is to feed the
milk COWS or sheep with coarse
bran, feeding two quarts to each
COW per day during the summer.
The increased milk will pay for the
feed, and the droppings of the cat
tie will fertilize the pasture.
These droppigs should be knocked
to pieces and scattered over the
ground, instead of being left in a
solid mass to kill out the green.
Dissolved bones or coarse ground
bone spred over the pasture at the
rate of 400 pounds to the acre is an
other excellent way to bring up the

One Of the saddest things con-
nected with the modern ways of ed
ucation is the examining system
and the melancholy wrecks it is
leaving behind it. Teachers and
parents join in the thoughtless and
cruel work Of forcing some deli
cate child as they would force a
plant in the dollhouse, forgetting
that an unnaturally early bloom
is but the forerunner Of early ma
turity and early death. In very
many cases the victims of this fore
ing system are children with more
brain than muscle, naturally; chill
,dren with broad brows and narrow
chests; unfortunate little people
with tendancy to precocity, and
with parents too unwise to know
that every such tendency should be
repressed instead of encouraged.

AS for the effort of the forcing
system on the bright ones, why
how soon they dwindle down and
become commonplace. or find
themselves at the very threshold of
life with health wrecked and oppor-
tunities gone. l saw a letter the
other day from the mother of such

girl, who had, unfortunately, al
ways been delicate, but who had
kept up wonderfully under the long
continued strain of severe study.
This month she was to have grad

have brought her home, in a kind
