A good story is told Of a darby who
was brought from the south by mem.
Der of Maine family noted for being
"a little near" as the phrase is. He
was wanted for a farmland. He came
in the spring, and dandelion greens
were the staple article of family diet.
These were succeeded by beet green's
and these again by mustard and pars.
ley green's. The darby had been used
to good living in his southern home
and the northern fodder" grew stale
after time. At last haying was done
and the darby stood on the barn-fooI
looking wistfully at the green pilof
of forage that went up into the ridge
poles.
Think I'll be going back down souf,
Massa K" he said.
"Why?" asked the surprised farmer
whats that for? Don't you like il
here?"
Eyes. Pretty place huff" was the
reply; "but you see, massa, we've done
eat the grass till that's all gone, and |
can't eat that hay all winter, nohow.
I'll go back to ole Car'lina."
Remonstrance was of no use, and he
went.-Lewiston Journal.

HERE AND THERE,

The chief advantage of deer.set.
ting of milk is that it is less exposed
to atmospheric influence.
Make hay when the sun shines and
potatoes when it rains. But some folks
can't stand hot or rainy weather.
Irregular feeding is injurious to
the fowls, and they should have their
food as regularly as we partake Of
ours.
The enterprise of Improvement in
stock brings prosperity as reward.
Cheap-selling always follows cheap
breeding. There is one sure way Of
bringing depression in stock.
Waste not want not" Let nothing
go to vase on the farm. Save all the
available manure. Put in spare time on
compost heaps. Don't be afraid of
making too much. You will need it
all.
DO not forget that grade animal
will not breed all his good qualities.
Nothing but thoroughbred will give
you improved stock from your mares
and heifers, or from the droves and
floclss. Do not waste your time.
Raise cattle, horses, hogs and poul-
try enough to consume all the grain
and roughness on the farm, and that
mortgage will soon be lifted The
farm will fertilize itself, meanwhile.
Do not overstock.
Grinding material is one of the
most essential things in the poultry
yard. Without it it is impossible for the
fowls to grind their food, and indiges-
ticn and death is the result.
--Land-plaster, kainite and charcoal
are good absorbents for use in the sta
BILE, poultry-house, or elsewhere, to save
the ammonia that would otherwise be
lost by evaporation. When ammonia
soaked, they are all quick-acting fer
tilizers.
For the farm, for the road and for
every kind of practical work the fast
walking horse Is a valuable animal.
We wonder when horsemen will AWAKE
and pay some attention to the devel-
opment of this trait Do not let the
fast-trotting craze run away with your
judgment.
An exchange says it is sober fact
that with no other occupation can a
working man, with small capital, sup
port his family so we'll, save little
money and live under such easy free
aud wholesome conditions as the
farmer.
Raise your own horses, and do il
with sons purpose. Breed good-sizeo
mares to thoroughbred draft stations
A good horse will cat no more than
viii poor one, and 40 douhlo the
work: and have them we'll matched

was sought for and the other points
neglected. We can hardly expect
perfect all purpose animal either In
sheep or cattle, but in very many cases
with care in selecting and breeding,
more nearly all purpose animals can be
secured with sheep than we now have,
and a better profit be received
Profit is what we are after in keep
ing sheep, as in keeping every other
class of stock, and the breeding and Sc
lecting should be such as will give the
class of animals that will return the
most profit. Under present conditions
it will not do to make a speciality OF
either wool or mutton to the detriment
of the other, but rather to get the most
out of both. Get the best and the most
wool, and the best and most mutton
with as much increase as possible.
Sheep in this way may yet be made
profitable, but it will require more than
average good management if fair
profit is realizcd if dependence is placed
upon anyone source of income.--Cor

His only happy times then were on
Sunday afternoons, when Ben was at
home and was sure to unchain him for
play. While Ben had his eye on Billy
the bear could be kept out of mischief
But Billy remembered a neighbours
house where he used now and then to
have morsel thrown to him out of
window. Unawares he slipped away
one day and went over there. On the
sill of the very window-unfortunate
thing-was stack of pies. Billy stood
up and put his paws around the whole
pile to carry them off. 1t was a dismal
failure, for the pies flew in all direc-
tions. Billy ran home, and doubtless
remembered for some time the sound
drubbing he received with a broom
stick. This was serious matter. In
deed, some one at that time consulted
the magistrate of the neigh borhood,
and Ben was cautioned about his bear

A NEW INSECTICIDE,
An Important Discovery In tho Domain
Pomoiogy.

An Important Discovery in the Domain of
Pomoiogy.
A new and important discovery in the
domain of pomology has been made by
F. c. Moulton, of the gypsy moth com
mission, Maiden, Mass. Arsenate Of
lead was the substance used, which
was prepared by dissolving II ounces
acetate of lead and ounces of arsenate
of soda in $50 gallons of water. These
substances quickly dissolve and form
arsenate of lead, a fine white powder,
which is lighter than paris green, and
while being fully as effective in its
operation in destroying insect life, is
far preferable for several reasons. II
by any means the mixture happens to
be used stronger than necessary TO de.
stroy insect life, even three or four
times the necessary strength, it in no
wise Injuries the foliage of the plants
upon which it is sprayed. This is
great thing in its favor, for frequently
in using paris green for potato beetle
larvae and for the Goblin worms, as
much injury results from the poison
burning the foliage as would result
This is better insecticide than paris
green under all circumstances and for
all insects, says Prof. Fernald. 1t has
the advantage of being readily seen on
the leaves, SO that one can tell at
glance which have and have not been
sprayed, which is often of great con.
venience. Being lighter than paris
green, it does not settle so quickly, a nd
as a result, can be distributed more
evenly over the foliage. A great objec.
ton to the use of paris green is the liza.
bility of using an overdose, and thereby
injurlng the foliage of the plants
sprayed. With the arsenate of lead, IL
can be used, if necessary, in the pro-
portion of rs pounds to 1h0 gallons of
water without injury to the foliage.
Prof. Fernald advises the addition of 2
quarts of glucose, or, if that can not be
obtained, 2quarts of molasses to each
$50 gallons of water, used for the pur-
pose of causing the insecticide to ad-
here to the leaves. He says that the
experiments last season show that
the insecticide will remain on
trees for long time, even after
quite heavy rains, and, we infer,
prove effective. The cost of these
chemicals at cents per pound for
arsenate of soda, and IA cents for ace.
tate of lead, at wholesale. 1t hould
be borne in mind that these substances
are all poisonous, and should be used
