Grass with Grain.

1t is an old universal custom to SOW
and grass seed with the grain. Some
people think that such small plants need
to be shaded the first of the season,
and others think that the grass would
not grow large enough to make crop
of hay the first year anyway, ana the
grain is put in to sive time. In TINS
way the grain gets the manure which is
usually applied for some hoed crop the
wear before, and then takes what it can
find if it lives through the first struggle.
This idea that shade is benificial Is open
to doubts. If the seed is sOwn early SO
as to let the plants get well rooted be-
fore the hot weather, they will do better
without shade, and this is made more
certain by the fact that the crop of grain
takes the water from the soil and leaves
the roots of smaller plants to dry up
This is shown in many fields " here there
are wet corners where the gram l.
drowned out, and at harvest time the
clover, il the seed WAS sown on the sur
face, will be many times larger than on
dry parts of the field where the grain
grew. II the soil is suitably moist and
in good condition, grass will do well
sown with grain, but in poorer and dry
fields it would be better to take off the
crop of grain If you must have it, and
then pillow the soil if it is weedy, and II
not, harrow it and put on manure with
the grass seed. and you will get cr"l
as soon ms by the other method, and get
more of it.-Mirror md Farmer.

This advice we must take, however. 1t
is the people who cultivate the good

Traits of the Horse.

1t is difficult to understand how I q
legs of the horses stand the wear and
tear Of the work in our great cities,
where every step of their iron hoofs is
upon hard, unyealding road. There is
no other creature living, with the eXcep-
tion of the donkey or the mule, which
can bear the constant battciing entailed
by rapid locomotion over a paved surface.
But If We look at the structure of the
horses legs we see how it is that the jar
and vibration do not injurc him more.
His ''pasterns,' the part just above the
hoof, yield Il little Mt each step, and so
break the force of the conclusion. He is,
in fact. mounted on springs. This is
one of the chief reas on why he is pleas
ant animal to ride. Any one who has
tried riding a COW or an OK has found
the difference between the easy, elastic
movements of the horse and the jolting
and jogging of horned mount, From

FARM. GARDEN and

Talented Men Required for Far
merS.

There ..eins to.be belief among GER
tain igfs al people, mostly residents Of
our cila,a Il towns. that man OF talent,
oi traif al cnegy aud business tact
viii meet his reward in city life, and
that the occupation OF farming gives no
scope for the exercise OF the best lacul-
lies with which mankind are blessed.
Nobody could be farther from the
truth than such a belief. Life in cities
does indeed offer rare opportunities to IA
few men of great enterprise and large
CAPITAL to accumulate vast fortunes, ac-
auired sometimes by means OF honest
work for the benefit of their fellow men,
hut not infrequently by taking unscrup-
ulous and cruel advantage OF others
with less knowledge of the state of trade
or with less capital to control 1t.
But while "A few in the cities become
rich, the much larger number work hard
for small pay, with unhealthy surround
ings and little hope Of improving their
condition. Country life does not oiier
such magnificent chances for sudden
wealth, nor such terrible temptations,
but it offers ample opportunity for the
use of the best powers with when man
kind are endowed, and demands the best
education offered by our colleges to en-
able the farmer to use 10 best advantage
the opportunities offered by the produc-
tive powers of any soil, climate and To-
cation.
There has been quite as much advance
made in the mel hods Of farming during
the past twenty years as in the methods
used in any other line of industry, and he
who would make the best use of the I'M
proved methods must be man OF edu-
cation, of enterprise, and of keen intelli-
gence. in order to keep up in the march
of the times.
Farming, like other business, is be-
coming 80 fully developed that any one,
to make it successful, must confine him
self to a few specialtes, and make him
master of the best methods which scien-
ce and practice have shown are required,
and not scatter his efforts over too many
products, and make the common mis-
take that a farmer should raise all his
family needs to use.-Uass. H0ughmdh.

SteriliziDg Milk and Water.

Hygienic Value of perf,imery

DR.. Anders of Philadelphia, n few
wears ago, made the interesting discov-
cry that the ozone in the atmosphere,
the element which is the great purifier
was mainly supplied from blooming
flowers, and for this reason blooming
plants were healthful In dwellings AS
well as attractive. Some interesting cx'
perimcnts with the odors Of flowers have
been made In the old world, and ii Is
found that many species of microbes are
easily destroyed by various odors The
odor of cloves has been known to destoy
these minute creatures in twenty-five
minutes. Cinnamon will kill some spe-
cies in twelve minutes thyme in thirty
five. In forty-five minutes the common
wild verbena is found effective. while
the odor of some geranium flowers has
destroyed various forms of microbes in
fifty minutes. The essence OF cinnamon
is said to destroy the typhoid fever mi
crobes In twelve minutes and is recorded
of the most effective of all odors as al
antiseptic. 1t is now believed thai flow

The Home Market,

Those of the farmers who cannot see
that American workmen are our best
consumers of farm products, will now
realize that when they are idle they can
not buy as they do when working full
time. hence we are disappointed in the
demand which ought to prevail at this
season for our well-fed neat cattle.
There is really shortage, but the very
limited demand keeps prices down where
they would not he il the manufactures
of the nation were in full operation, and
the capital of the land was permeating
trade. Foreign demand Is an uncertain
factor in our trade. Home trade is our
standard of prosperity.
