A NJ w CURRAN 7.

While for many years thero has been
but little Improvement in currants-
and this came almost exclusively from
tie other side Of the Auantio-within
recent years American fruit growers
have realized the great importance of
this fruit as a market crop. Several
intelligent experimentars have made
speciality of currants, and have sue
ceeded in producing some new varie-
ties Of Uru3ual excellence. Mr.. Jacob
Moore, Of Wyoming county, II. Y, the
originator Of the Brighton grape, the
Bartlett Seckel pear, and other valuable
fruits, has in recent years devoted
himself particularly to the improve
0lcn5 Of the currant, Of which, by judi
ci0us crossing, he has produced several
excellent varieties the 5ast Of which
bo considers the Red Cross, which is
2ow being introduced by the Green's
Nursery Co. A5 seen in our iIIu5tra-

BIU Er0N and WOOL.

An exchange says that mutton rs.s-
ing seems to be attracting the aClo9.Isn
Of eheermen 10 cu unusual cxtcLt N
these days Of low wool, ana they are
discussing through the papers the 1oia-
tive pr0fitablcaoss Of this ard wool
growing, wish the tendency jn7t now
to make the balance appear N the
favor Of mutton growing. All the
tin18 it is iuaistcd that the sheep must
be big, well shaped, plump and fa5, or
the best Of their kind, to make e1clu
sive mutton raising pay. Certainly
this is right, and the same is equally
true Of wool growing. To derive any
profis from the growing Of wool above
actual expenses the sheep must be the
best Of the wo0l-bearing breeds, and
the fleece must be long and clean
stapled, fine and densaly 6oered,
Where these high standards Of excel
Ience are attained, sheep will under or.
dinsry circumstances yield some profit,
whether they be Of the mutton OF wool
breeds, even when ordinary Or low
grade sheep would be grown e g posi-
tive loss. But no matter how we'll
bred the sheep may be, or how big =
carcass, or how fne a fleece they may
have, unless they are well cared for aud
we'll fed they will always be kept st q

enough to supply the American de

from the United States Department 0i
Agriculture seeds of two varieties,

TO be strong, vigorous growers, taking
on a heavy crop Of fruit, but owing TO
the short season, failed to mature the

CULTIVATION BEFORE PLANT
ING.

The most live and progressive Of
dairymen, joan Gould, says that most
people put in too much Of their labor
after their fodder c1rn in planted.
lie says: The cultivation ought TO be
all d1ne before planting, and before the
corn is up; but don't rip things all up
after the corr is up-don't 20 down
and bring up lot Of frcah weed seeds
to keep on growing and taking up the
moisture that Che corn needs
A crop Of fodder corn grown in this
way ought to b q marvel Of cheap.
uosz; = little scratching about with the
amooshing harrow and the weedcr,
and the work is done. P1raaps the
plan would succeed on loose, rich and
clean land; bu5 on average soil it has
thus far proved a paying operation to
follow up the crop a little longer than
indicated oy Mr. Gould. Mass Plough

For the benefit Of your readers, I

corn to prev vent birds from pulling itup.
Select good sound ears and she'll,
Pace the corn into e pot or kettle and
for every peck Of the sbelled corn add
one gill of pine tar, then pour boiling
water and stir until the corn is covered
with tar or looks like il had been var
ni1hed. Drain the water eff and if you
can get it conveniently, pour some SCOT
and ashes over the corn and stir it
thoroughly so that it Will not stick to
your hands when planting it. If you
have no ashes dry dust wi!l,do Coal
tar will 90 as well as pine tar. Inever
plant corn without taring it. have
prepared it for planting by this plan
for twenty years.
Where birds pull up rice it can be
treated the same as corn. Ia conver-
sa.ion with a farmer several years ago
he said that il coal tar is 1leed instead
Of pine tar, bud worms would not
trouble the corn.
The best remedy for preventing in
sects from i0ju7iDg young corn is to
plant very early and uso . small guam

maze the corn 6-ow fast and set too
large tO be Al-ed by the insects.
