THE FENCE OUT OF DATE.
Privacy and Flowers Sacrificed 70,
the Continuous Green Lawn.

the Continuous Green Lawn.
The modern craze for tearing
down fences and throwing ones
lawns into the street seems to me
to be about on a par with hotel
life. It's the community rather
than the home idea. A hundred
families living In one small park
with nothing but the surveyors
map to show his own boundary
lines-it is to me detestable. 1t
is argued that the effect is so
much pleasanter on the passer-by
than lot of ugly fences. In the
first place, why should we care
more for the passer-by than for
ourselves?,and in the second, why
should the fences be ugly? II you
have a country place you want to
cultivate flowers, and how can
you do this if your neighbours dogs
gambol over your garden. You
want to sit out under your vine
and fig tree, and you are in plain
sight Of every stranger who comes
that way. You are living in the
street; you have no privacy; you
might as we'll sit upon the curb.
stone to drink your coffee. A
mans home is his castle; it should
not be a peep-show for his fellow
townsmen.
There is nothing in all England
that we admire more than the
walls about the gardens, not only
for their intrinsic beauty, but for
the sense of retirement behind
them. And why should we not
have them at home? L had the
pleasure one afternoon last sum-
mer of taking tea with Mrs. F. ID.
Miller in her beautiful garden in
the village Of Broadway, England.
The garden ran along the road,
but it was divided from it by
wall 10 or more feet high. II we
had been sitting in the drawing
room we could not have been
more retired, and yet the table
was spread out under the big trees
within smelling distance Of beds
of roses, and with the village street
on the other side of the wall.
How much more civilized than
our way Of living in the public
gaze? We will come back to the
fences as we grow older and care
more for comfort than for show.
The absence Of fences is killing
the love of flowers in this country.
When we have no fences we plant
shrubs, II we plant anything, and
the old.fashioned gardens that
our mothers and grandmothers
cultivated to such a perfection Is
is a thing OF the past. We buy our
flowers of an itinerant in Broad
way, those of US who cannot afford
the luxury of the florists shops,
and we know nothing OF the
pleasure of our own gardens. Look
at the gardens Of England. In
London or in the country it Is
the same wherever there is bit
of earth, be it on the ground or in
a window box, there you find flow
ers in profusion. should be very
sorry to think that we had less
love for the beautiful, or that we
had less sentiment than our En-
glish cousins, but the facts are
against us in the matter Of flowers.

Simple Secret of Success.

6 "The man of the standing adj"
says the Somerville, Mass, Citi-
zen, sis the back. bone Of the news
paper and the solid man Of the
community. In summer or winter,
in sunshine or rain, his name
greets the public with each issue
Of the paper, and people come in
time to regard him as we'll es-
tablished ina successful business,
whether they have been his pat

like success" and the public, once

doing well, stands ever ready to
patronize him and turn to him
naturally when they happen to
want anything in his line. In
this simple fact lies the whole
secret OF success Of persistent

Milking.

Under the head of milking may be com
prised the cleanliness of the animals, and
the manner and time of milking The
introduction of separators practically re
yealed the necessity for cleanliness in a
COW stable. At the termination Of the
process Of separating, a peculi n slime is
to be found adhering to the sides of the
separator Its color varies from grey to
green, brown and even black When ex-
amined under microscope, germs, portions
of plants, hair. SCOT linen. have been dis
covered, and when exposed to the air for
short time it putrifes rapidly. 1t con
ssts in reality of dirt, and as such must
il jure the quality of milk and butter. In
order to keep the milk as free from the
dirt as possible, the cows ought to be
rubbed down with a straw wisp on their
right hind. quarters and udders before
they are MIXED in the morning During
the DAY II is necessary to Currycomb and
brush each pnimal. The best kind of
brush to be used is one made rather more
open than an ordinary horse brush, but of
The best hog bristle. The animals are
first scraped over with the curry and then
brushed. In addition, the udders of all
cows ought to be washed and dried before
milking, and the mixers ought to dip
their hands in cold water after milking
each animal. Care must be taken to
completely empty the udder when the COW
IS MIXED In large establishments where
several mixers are employed, it is advis-
able to select one or two OF the more careful
persons to strip the COWS after they have
been MIXED. BY this means the careless
ness of some of the mixers may be
corrected. Each mixer should ehave his
own stool and pail marked or numbered,
and should be held responsible for the
cleanliness of the same, The milk ought
to be poured from the pail into the milk
cans through double hair-straner, and
the milk cans ought if possible, to be
placed outside the cowhouse, r. II.

Agriculture in Somerset.

a bulletin recently issued by the Sec
rotary of the Board of Agriculture con-
tains the following communications from
farms in Somerset County:
There are so many ques-
lions asked in the present Bulletin, all
OF interest and importance, that it is
difficult To determine which once il is best
to Try to answer, but | will venture to say
that in feeding DAIRY cows for the FIRST
time the past winter fed carrots cut into
small slices and mixed with cotton seed
meal. This feed. one quart ofmeal 10 one
peck OF carrots, seemed to give good
satisfaction. Have not learned of others
feeding this way, but would like to know
why cottop-seed meal and carrots or beets
would not make good feed. | am now
preparing ground for carrots to be fed in
the same way. We should now begin to
make a great effort to raise every thing we
possibly can for stock feed, then cut our
hay early and save the purchasing of so
much western feed. In regard to the cost
OF producing ton of hay | wish TO say
that while Lecturer of Skowhegan Grange
a few years since gave this question to
be answered by our best farmers, and in
answering received the following
Alonzo Smith said the cost is SIS AZ :;
Augustus Strickland, s7SS; Augustus
Crowell, 50 34 Alexander Crawford,
sS13 Ansel Holway, 5000; X. Withee,
50 27 W.D Hayden, 81 81; Warren
Holbrook, SII.oo; G, II. Greenwood
S 90. The hay was to be stored in barn.
We see by this that our farmers greatly
differ in their estimation of the cost of
producing a ton of hay.
