This is one of the critical periods on
the farm, when the right or wrong man
agement will make profit or loss out of
the growth and productiveness OF the
stock for the season. If when the feed
fails in the pastures there is no extra
furnished in the way OF grain or fodder
that has been grown to meet just this
emergency, very serious consequences
will follow. The growth OF young stock
will have a check that will show its eff
fects for months, and that, too, just at
the commensurate OF winter when every
particle of thrift possible is needed to
bring the stock on to winter in good
shape while in the case OF COWS in milk
a sudden lessening OF the flow at this
period of the year cannot be retrieved
till the COW comes fresh again. 1t
doesn't pay to let the stock fall off in
growth or production. The wise farmer
meets this time, "between hay and
grass" by having carefully provided be-
forehand for soiling crops-of clover, of
fodder corn, OF tnrnips and various other
crops that exc out scanty pastures. His
stock grows and is productive from one
years end to that of another.

Proner Care Of StncIks.

1t is fully as necessary to properly
shelter and care for harvested crops as
it is to plant and cultivate them care
fully. Grain and forage stored in the
barn must be well cured and kept from
spelling with the heat of fermentation.
The latter will affect stacks but little un-
less they have been so built as to take
in the rain. After every storm the stacks
should be examined. II found wet, they
should be dried by throwing off the up
per half, spreading it in the sunshine
and air until no more moisture can be
felt, when the stacks should be properly
rebuilt, keeping the center full and the
stems on the sides sloping downward.
Stacks injured by heavy winds should be
raked down and retopped. All stacks
soon settle, and after few weeks need
to have a considerable amount of new
material thrown on the fattened top
and arranged in the best way to shed
rain. The hangers which weight down
the top often need adjustment, and
sometimes bitches should be dug around
the stack to drain off surface water.

Select Seed Corn while Husk!ng,

The progressive farmer always breeds
from his choicest stock, and plants seed
selected from the very best of the crop.
By this means he oyercomes the con-
slant tendency to degeneration, and Sc
cures strains of varieties and breeds
which are best adapted to the soil and
climate of his farm. This is especially
true of maize, of which only the best
filled ears from vigorous stacks should
be used for seed. At husking time this
selection can be made to the greatest adj
vantage. Whenever a choice ear from
a good stalk is found the husker should
throw it into a separate pile or into the
front of the wagon. When unloading
these best ears may be then thrown into
barrels or boxes, and when resorted
may be stored in dry room for the win
ter Such continuously selected seed
corn will soon make a neighborhood
reputation for yearly improvement.
