Cotton Lower on More Favorable Crop

sence OF any support from that side.
our markets opened barely steady at
10 3 PONIES lower. The market was
further depressed on more favorable
crop reports, all OF which gave re-
newed announcement to the bear ele-
ment. While the market was not par
tlcularly active yet 1t showed but little
strength or animation throughout the
earlier 50 sion. The close was easy, at
the lowest point OF the day. and points
below last nights fine figures. Sales
li9.300.
New York spots were dun at l-1s
decline. No sales.
The strength In New Orleans finally
gave way today. The opening was at
u loss OF about l point but It quickly
dropped from 712 for August at the
opening to 6,9i closing steady at 6
points reaction. but IA below last night.
Sales $500. Spots were easy, but I'M
changed, at &c, with $50 sailed
We believe the market a good pur-
chase ON any further depression.

NEW FORAGE CROPS.

New forage crops have been tested
for years at the Massachusetts Station,
twenty-scven different crops having
been grown last year that are adapted
to Ohio and the Middle States. DR..
Goessman advised raising mixed crops,
say summer vetch and oats, as they
produce larger yields than when
grown singly. Sow together forty to
forty-fiv pounds summer vetch to four
bushels oats, and seed early in June.
The fodder is highly nutritious, and
may be cut green and fed for two or
three weeks or cured for hay. Sown
Mt various times, it will grow through
the season. Vetch and oats, or vetch
and barley, will both cut three and n
half to four tons of dry hay per acre.
The latter make an excellent fodder,
containing sixteen to seventeen per
cent protein, in dig gestive value CORE
spends with clover, does not need
grain, and can be used as either green
feed, ensilage or dried hay. Barley is
not MS good as oats. Winter vetch
ought tc come up in April. Rye sown
the previous fall should make a good
early feed. Serradalla produces

THE BEST OF FoDDERs.

The man who in the future intends
to feed cattle through the winter, and
to do it profitably, in competition
with the balance of the feeding world.
will have to make sure of having an
abundance Of fodder for roughness,
and it must not be fed where it grew,
nor the stock turned out in the cold
to gather it. We have an abundance
of fodder plants, luxurious abuud-
auce. of them, indeed, and some of
them the best in the world. What we
have to do is thoroughly plow and pre-
pare the seed bed; do it as well as it
can be done. Then put in the seed,
be it what it may, and court and cul-
tivate as best we know how, and when
the time comes harvest and store it
where it can be handily fed. Our grain
will not only go farther, but do better
for having plenty of good roughness
to go with it. and the stock will do
well again under shelter as they would
in the stalk fields. There is hardly a
better crop to be raised for this pur-
pose than sorghum; it makes heavy
growth, possesses more saccharine
matter than any other, and is relished
and eaten with avidity by stock of all
kinds. Coleman's Rural World.

PIG RAISING.

The chief trouble with pig raising
as practised by many farmers is that
the pigs are not kept growing. This
is matter of prime Importance, for
the care and attention given to them
will surely show in the final results.
They must be kept warm and dry and
be furnished with good, clean, suita-
bic food at regular intervals. Neglect
one day cannot be counterbalanced by
overlooking the next.
At its birth pig should weigh
about three pounds. AT the end of
one month it should have increased to
fifteen pounds and should be ready
for market at the age of seven or
eight months, for with the average
farmer there is very little profit in
feeding pigs after they reach weight
of $50 pounds. The most pork is
made with the least feed on younger
pigs. The cost of pork is fifty per
cent. greater if made in the tenth
month than in the fifth month in the
food consumed. Quick returns and
quick profits should be the aim of the
swine breeder. 1t is well to remem-
Der that the profit in an animal fed
for market does not always lie in its
heavy weight, but rather in what it
has cost to produce that weight;
hence only animals of quick growth
should be reared
Pigs must be kept steadily growing
from the start, and pushedsas much as
possible without crowdlng. This last
must be carefully avoided, as it will
more than neutralize any benefits al
ready obtained. Good slcculent food
and grain are necessary to obtain the
rapid growth desired, and sour slop
should never be fed. Cleanliness
and regular feeding at stated hours are
the best preventives Of disease-New
York World.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Do not grain-feed the fowlsftoo
heavily.
May is not too late to plantisun.
flower seeds.
Keep the brooder as near 100 de-
grees as possible.
See that the poultry houses are kept
clean and free from bad odors,these
days.
Have some regard for the comfort OF
your focks. Feed more---most,any-
thing than corn in hot weather.
Hyacinthus Candicans are stately
and majestic in appearance. They
grow from bulbs and should be taken
up in the fall.
If the hens are confined be sure
they are induced to scratch for their
living. And give them some green
stuff every day.
Plenty of fresh water, lime, gravel
and green stuff are just as necessary
now as in winter. Do not neglect
furnishing these.
The little chicks should have shade
and water, but not drafts and wet.
Tight roofs. dry floors but fresh
drinking water handy to be constantly
gotten at.
If you wish sure blooming rose.--
one that is hardy, beautiful in color,
clean and strong in foliage, and pro-
fuse in Towering, just plant the Mrs.
John Laing and you will have it.
The Dayton strawberry is one of
the best and most reliable berries for
home or market, fruit large, bright,
fine-shaped, good flavor and perfect
blossom. 1t will pay you to try it.
Poultry raisers are cautioned
against permitting the fowls to spend
the hot summer days exposed to the
direct rays of the sun. A board or
two raised even two feet from the
ground will provide shade.
1t is useful to know that the natu-
raj enemy of the common green lice
of plants is the pretty little ladybug,
and to catch afew of these and set them
free on alice-infested plant will quick
ly result in the disappearance of the
troublesome pests.
The old Turner red raspberry is one
of the most reliable, and is noted for
its hardness. We are not thinking
of discarding it yet, in spite of the
new kinds offered. 1t is of delicious
favor---melting and sweet, unsur-
passed for the home table and market,
although too soft for distant shipm ent.
While it produces many suckers these
are no disadvantage where proper cul-
ture is given. The canes are strong
and thornless, which is indeed good
point in their favor. They should be
cut low, say three and half to four
feet, and will need no stakes or wires.
