Notes.

Potato scab can be largely pre-
vented by treating the seed planted
for three hours in a solution of 2
ounces of corrosive sublimate in
Is gallons of water.
Land that is full of hard clods
cannot be expected to give good
crops. Use the pulverizer and har-
row until the soil is worked as fine
as would be desired for a garden.
Orchard grass is excellent for per-
manent pasture; timothy lasts but
few years, and clover less, A
good mixture is 5 pounds red clo-
yer, 4 pounds timothy, IA pounds
Kentucky blue grass and 5 pounds
orchard grass. The first two make
the good pasture in the start.
The recent hard Winter will be
found to have injured all seed corn
that was not thoroughly dry and
kept in dry place. Test the seed
by planting some of the grains in
a box of earth, and note the per-
centage of grains which fail to ger
inmate. Take no risk on seed
corn.
An Ohio farmer says his 100
stands of bees pay him more than
all the rest of his sixty-acre farm,
and do not require half SO much
labor. Wherever alfalfa is grown
bees should follow; and even for the
sake of bees it may pay to raise al
falfa, if it will grow in your latitude.
Grow large crop of potatoes.
The country buys large quantities
of potatoes from Scotland. Do not
be afraid of low prices. Ifpotatoes
can not be sold at a profit they can
be utilized at home for stock. Con-
sidering the large possible yield
from potatoes they should always
prove profitable.
For the dairy, for work, for breed
ing and even for fattening, the quiet,
docile animal is always worth more

an expensive animal to keep within
bonds.

the yields. Take aplot Of ground

The Trnck Patch.

The advantage of a good truck
patch is that it can be made to
supplement the garden and materi-
ally aid in securing full supply OF
the larger vegetables. 1t is seldom
that the garden is large enough to
grow the potatoes, sweet corn, cab
bage, beans, tomatoes and pickles
needed by the farmers family.
Then it is not usually the case that
the garden is large enough to admit
of using the one-horse cultivator to
a good advantage. The garden Gull
tivator can readily be used in the
garden for the smaller crops, but
for those named the horse cultivator
is the best The planting can be
made wide enough apart to admit
of using the one-horse cultivator,
and, in fact, these crops need plenty
of room.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1895-04-27

To get the best results, it is es-
sential that the soil be rich, plowed
deep and prepared in good condition.
Taking everything into considera-
ton, the better plan is to grow the
tomatoe and cabbage plants in a
seed bed, and then when they have
reached proper size, transplant
them to the truck patch, where they
are to grow. Cabbage plants should
! be set in rows three feet apart and
tomato plants four. The soil should
be in good filth when the planting
out is done, in order to induce a
rapid growth.
1t is the early cultivation that is
the most important, especially with
the cabbage. 1t is difficult to have
the soil too rich or to give too much
cultivation during the first month
after setting out. After growth has
been made so that the plants will
shade the ground, less cultivation
will be needed.
With tomatoes a better yield,
both in quality and quantity, can
be had by providing some support
for the vines by driving stake to
each plant and then tying it up or
by providing trellis. They need
air and sunlight to grow and ripen
the fruit properly.
With care in making several
paintings, supply of sweet corn
can be had until frost. Paintings
may be made as late as the latter
part of June.
One advantage in planting white
beans is that what is needed can
be used green, and then what ma
lures can be cured, shelled and kept
for Winter use By making repeated
paintings it is easy to have supply
of beans until frost.
For early cucumbers paintings
can be made at any time after the
danger of frost is past, but when
| grown especially Tor pickles, the
planting should not be made until
about the LIST of June. One advant-
age in the later planting is that
there is less danger of insect pests
destroying the vines. In many cases
it will be an advantage to mulch
the vines after they have started to
run well in order to help retain
moisture in the soil, as the cucum-
bers require considerable moisture
to thrive best.
With all these crops the greater
part of the cultivation can be given
with light one-horse cultivator,
one that will thoroughly stir and
fine the surface. There is no ad-
vantage in working the soil deep or
in killing up. Keep the ground
level, stir frequently and keep it in
a fine filth. This not only promotes
growth, but aids to retain moisture
in the soil

Hens like seclusion, and will do

Stale bread, soaked in milk until

Leghorns are one of the best
breeds for layers, but the fowls are
small.
When the chickens are off their
feed increase their exercise and
change their bill of fare.
Fowls that fatten easily should
have plenty of exercise, unless
they are being fattened for market.
A hen may be considered to eat
one bushel of corn yearly, and to
produce an average of ten dozen
eggs yearly.
April or the LIST of May is the very
best season in which to bring off a
brood of young poultry, as the
weather is usually warmer and
more settled
A good way of managing the
young poultry is to have small yards
IN which the hens can be kept until
the young are large enough to be
given free range.
It will do no harm for all the
hens to run together, and if pure
bred roosters are provided every
year there will be a gradual i'm
provement in the flock.
When eggs for Matching are re-
ceived by express, take them out Of
the package in which they were
sent and let them stand at least "a
hours before putting them under a
hen.
Give the young poultry a good
start by keeping them free from
vermin and feeding them literally.
Their perfect and rapid develop

After brood of turkeys become

Fully one-half of the young

Chickens and turkeys Matched un-

lice, and it is best to keep a sharp
lookout for them.
Setting hens should not be allow

the nests at least once a day, put.

themselves and get exercise, or feed
them literally on the nests,
One reason why the hen that
steals her nest always matches we'll
is that she is not too fat; every egg
has the same vitality, and in con-
sequence they hatch more evenly
than mixed lot of eggs possibly
can.
1t is more convenient to give the
hens free range and let them run
together than to confine them in
anything like close quarters. One
advantage in this is that the fowls
will pick up much that would other
wise be wasted.
A small poultry yard soon be-
comes saturated with manure. Ere
