Garden Culture.

Never disturb the ground while wet by
blowing, spading, hoeing or tramping on
it. See that your garden spot is well en-
riched by spreading evenly over it, before
blowing or spading, a dressing about two
inches thick of well-rotted stable manure
at least year old II fresh manure musl
be used, pulyerize it thoroughly, and then
take great care to spread it evenly If
commercial fertilizer must be used, spread
it evenly, six to /, pounds to the square
rod, before preparing the ground for SOW
ing the seed. To these directions we may
add one rule that should be followed Pul
verile the bare surface repeatedly the sea-
son through with a steel rake or other
tool using 4 narrow rake for plants near
together and wide one for more distant
spaces. This treatment will not only pro
mote the growth OF the plants, but if given
often enough will clear the ground OF
weeds, by destroying them before they
have formed.
The Somerset reporter., 1894-07-12

Thomas Davidson says in the July
Forum, In discussing the question of an
ideal education for a boy: The stupidity
sentimental notion that the child must,
under any circumstances, have good
time (as the vulgar phrase isl, causes
many parents to allow children to follow
their natural caprices, wasting their inter-
est and affection upon trivial or even hurt
full things, and disregarding those that are
worthy and beneficial. There is nothing
that the child is so thankful for in the long
run as the careful and kindly training of
his affections there is nothing that con-
tributes so much to his moral worth and
happiness. Closely connected with the
result of this training is that self-control
which is the essential element in moral
autonomy. In the child this takes the
forms of sustained attention. and courage
to carry out his wishes in defiance of diff
ficulties and instructive shrinkings, forms
both of which will be found of the utmost
value in the subsequent course of educa-
ton.
The Somerset reporter., 1894-07-12

\ New Jersey gardener thinks it more
profitable for him to buy materials and
mix his fertilizers to suit himself. He
buys by the ton and thus gets the materl-
a at lowest cost. We think he would
find more profit in feeding the cotton-seed
meal to stock and using the manure there
from than in using il as meal. he ma
nure will decompose much more quickly
than will cotton seed, md there IS com
parativelv little loss of fertililing materla
IN passing through animals that are tat.

The gardener recommends the follow
ing formula Tor most kinds of vegetables
One thousand pounds cotton-seed meal or
bone meal. both costing about $50 a ton;
500 pounds bone black, costing SIS ton,
and geo pounds OF murlate OF potash, cost
ing S42 to SIS ton. This makes one ton
OF frstclass manure, costing about $50.

To estimate the value OF fertilizers scY-

The Farmers Boy.

Chars Dudley Warner says The
farmers boy is the one who spreads the
grass when the men cut it; he slows it in
the barn, rides the horse to cultivate the
corn up and down the hot weary rows he
picks up the potatoes when they are dug.
he is the one who totes all the water and
wood, and tires his back out splitting kin
ding. No matter where he is, in the
house or out, there is always work for him
to do. Before he goes to school in winter
he shoves the paths, and in summer turns
the grindstone.
"The farmer boy has a happy life, in
spite Of all and he is the stuff great men
are made of. fit were not for the fresh
young blood of the country, | am afraid
the city would run to seed.'-N. !. M6c-

FARM. GARDEN and
HOUSEHOLD.


Taking into account the money it re.
turns from its sale and the increase OF fer
tilitv il gives to the soil clover seed is
near always profitable. The money re-
turn may not be as large as from some.
crops, though we have known four to 1--we
bushels of seed to be grown on an acre.
The seed comes with the small rcd clover
in the second crop, so it is preceded by a
crop of hay or better still, if farmer has
sheep, put them on in early spring and
feed it down closely until the time comes
when clover not SO fed is in blossom. 1t
is well to have the sheep almost too num-
erous, so they will eat the clover quite
bare.
If there are Canada thistles or other
weeds not eaten down they should be cut
with scythe as close to the ground as
possible. Clover treated thus seeds much
better, though it may not make so rank a
second growth as when mown early.
Some farmers think that this increased
seeding is due to the sheep droppings, but
we think the reason is because the tramp
ling of the clover and close cropping in
jure it and predispose il to run more to
seed Allowing clover to grow and cut
ting it while in blossom is a much less
serious check to growth, especially as
there is always large amount of clover
leaves scattered and left on the ground in
getting off the first hay crop. This is as
good a manure as the sheep droppings,

Eggs.

Eggs may lose their nourishment by
cooking. The yolk, raw or very slightly
boiled, is exceedingly nutritious. Ii is,

with jaundice. When an egg has been
