PLASTER ANR ASHES.
The Beneficial Effects of Ashes When Ap
piled to Corn.

The Beneficial Effects of Ashes When Ap-
piled to Corn.
Henry Ives, one of the best garmel:s
in far-falned Western New York.
writes thus sensibly 10 the Tribune:
ITO use plaster on amy of our grow
ing crops requires so slight cost
and so often proves beneficial, that
one can harly afford to neglect it's APP
plication, although occasionally no
3erceptible advantage is derived from
t. and, at best, we scarcely look for
benefi except for the one season and
the one crop. But in using ashes we
are more sure of benefit, and its good
effects are 50 lasting that after one
liberal application, say of from ffty
10 100 bushels per acre Though II
Ieached ashes are used one could safely
apply three to six times this quantity,
he effect will show for five. ten or
even fifteen years by increasing fer
tility. When applying plaster to corn.
or plaster and guano, phosphate or men
manure, or even with a small quantity
Of ashes Qn all cases from 100 to zoo
weight to the acre is enough OF the
pIaster), the ingredients should be pre-
pared and we'll mixed en- the barn
floor, loaded into an open wagon, so as
to have it along convenient to the
work, and almost any time in the
early growth of the corn apply small
handful to each hill. not as some do,
by throwing it carelessly in compact
heap near to the hill. but as it Is
thrown siflt through the fingers, giving
it an even distribution all about the
ill. But after the corn is little more
advanced / believe it would do 1T more
good, and without costing much II any
more, to use two or three times as
much of the fertilizing mixture, SOW
ing it broadcast over the field. II, in
stead, the farmer could apply sixty or
eighty bushels of ashes to the acre, It
should be done before planting or seed
ing, so as to be wel1 mixed with the
soil when preparing it for the seed
bed This I believe, is the more last
ing of any kind of fertilizer, and one
Of the cheapest, too, when the ashes
can be obtained without costing more
than twenty-five on thirty cents a
busheL After such an application of
ashes, or other fertilizer, or manure, it
is still just as desirable as ever to
plaster the corn growing on such fer
tilted land.''

A Neat Compliment.

One of the neatest and most adroit
compliments ever turned out was prob
ably that Of Croesus to Chambyses
says the Westminster Review. That
hair-brained monarch once, when the
Persians and Croesus were sitting with
him, asked what sort of man they
thought him compared with the father
Cyrus. The Persdans of course, like
good courtiers, replied that he was
better than his father, for ne had al
Cyrus possessions and Egypt and the
sea as we'll
Thus spoke the Egyptians. Croesus
however, not being pleased with theii
opinion, spoke as follows: Now, tC
me- o son of Cyrus, you do not seen
equal to your father, for you have moi
son as he left behind hfm IL

Virtues ofHops.

To begin with, the vine is a hardy
perennial, affording good shade when
trained over windows or porches. 1t
makes q good appearance at any time,
but is especially lovely when the pale
green hops hang thickly among the
dark leaves. Here are a few favorite
uses for the pretty cones: A bag of
hops steamed and applied to the seat
of pain win give speedy relief. A
hop pillow is one of the best remedies
for insomnia if not the very best. Hop
tea is very efficient in cases of ner-
vousness. Put few hops in a tea
cup, fill with boiling water, cover
closely and let stand until cold This
is to be taken twice day until relief
is Obtained. 1t is said that the young
shoots are delicious cooked and served
like asparagus

Peter Henderson on Fertilizers.

Peter Henderson says that the besi
known fertilizers of commerce are
Peruvian guano and bone dust. What.
ever kind of concentrated fertilizer
is used, he finds it well repays the
labor to prepare 1T as follows before
it is applied to the land:' To every
bushel of guano or bone dust add
three bushels of Leaf mold, well pull
verized dry muck, yard scarpings, well
decomposed stable matter, or, if nei-
ther of these can be obtained, any
loamy soil, but in every case the ma.
terial mixed with the fertilizer must
be fairly dry, as it is used as a tenn
porary absorbentt for the fertilizer.
