When the Ground Is Frozen.

II
There are good reasons for doing as
much hauling as possible about the
farm during the winter. There is
lime for the work at this season and
II is always good policy to do during
the winter all the work that can be
done to as good advantage as in the
spring. At the best work will crowd
in the spring. Then il the hauling is
done over the fields while the ground
is frozen, clods and ruts will not be
made, as will be II the hauling Is done
when the ground is wet and soft Clods
are always to be avoided and ruts are
prone to develop into gullies. Yet an
,Lher reason Is that larger loads can
,e hauled while the ground Is frozen
old than when the frost Is out and
he tires sink into spongy. sticky
jround, as they do in the spring.
Another reason Is that the exercise
given the horses during the winter Is
Needed by them in good health and to
feep their muscles from losing hard
less and strength. II the horses are
lllowed to be idle during the winter,
he sudden violent change to hard
work in the spring is too severe nei-
her their muscles nor their digestive
rgans are equal to the demands made
lpon them, and the animals are worn
iown at the very beginning. This is
lot the case when the animals are put
o some work during the winter.
Yet another reason for doing
Turing the winter what haul
ng about the' farm that can
pe done Is that generally it can
De done on sled. Inasmuch as the
,ox of the sled is lower down than
the box of the wagon, load can
,e put on or taken off the sled more
.asily than the wagon. Using the sled
laves labor. The saving is quite an
TEN, especially in the hauling of
leavy posts or timbers. And, in fact,
man may be able to load on a sled,
ogs, stones, stumps, ETC., that he
;ould not load on a wagon.
Very likely posts and rails for fenc-
,ng can be hauled in place, ready to
De used In the spring. An old fence,
hat is to be replaced or repaired, can
De torn down, and the stuff not to be
used in the new fence be hauled away.
Logs, stumps, stones Snd other rub
bish can be cleared off the land. Gra-
vel can be hauled from the bank and
be placed where it will be needed for
drives and walks In the spring. Ger
tainly one should get near the wood
house a supply Of wood sufficient not
only for the winter, but for the next
spring and summer. When one can
work in the fields he should not be
compelled to haul and cut store wood
Gullies and hollows can be filled now
1t will not be hard to find hauling tc
do, and 1t should be done.-Americar

The boar should be fine boned, and
have tendency to fatten easily,
though for breeding uses he should be
kept as thin in flesh as he can be with
out injury. With such combination
the farmer will have next spring a
liter Of thrifty pigs that will gain
much more in the first ten months of
their life than pigs sired by scrub,
o-breed boar. II he does so he will
acknowledge year hence that 1t ia

try, and like poultry they deteriorate

GARDEN AND ORCHARD.

The pickle crop is reported short all
over the world. Chicago has shipped
260 carloads of pickles to the East and
g. Europe, and pickles. before they
grow again, will be marked among the
scarce luxuries.
Some of the best known varieties OF
blackberries were introduced by trans
planting from the woods. Many a
large fruited sort is met with which
would, If transplanted to the garden,
be as good as any Of the cultivated
sorts now in use.
Some sorts of pears, notably the
Bartlett. Clapps Favorite and Lucra-
tive, never fail of a crop, and by using
care varieties may be planted so as
to come in one after another. The
pear is a sure crop all the time, and
the wonder is that more OF them are
not to be seen about our farm houses.
There is little difference In varieties
OF asparagus. Rich soil and good cul-
ture will make good shoots from any
kind. The Palmetto Is now the most
popular sort. Seed sown in the spring
and well cared for In good soil will
make good roots for setting next fall,
and the second year after setting there
will be fine crop.
The only advantage of kohl rabi
over the ordinary rutabaga turnip is
that its flavor is less pronounced and
therefore less liable to affect the flavor
of the milk of cows fed on 1t. The
Giant White is usually raised for
stock food. but the smaller kinds pay
well for feeding, while there Is some
times a chance to sell a part of the
crop in market. Kohl rabi Is a pecu-
liar vegetable combining the texture Of
the turnip with the flavor of the cab
bage When fully matured it is tough
and indigestible and not fit for the
table. When young and tender, and
IL cooked like turnip, 1t makes a not
bad table vegetable.
Small fruit growers ought to fertil-
ize their land thoroughly, and when
this is done they should keep it al
ways producing something. If the
strawberry patch is running out, either
the red or black raspberry can be
planted between the rows. In this way
the year after the strawberry planta-
lion is cultivated under the raspberry
canes will be In full bearing. 1t is
the same with the larger fruits. A
young apple or pear orchard will grow
strawberries, raspberries and black
berries nearly as well as II the orchard
were not planted until it gets fully
into bearing
