The ground for wheat should be plowed
now and left until the weeds begin to shoot
out, when the cultiyatOr should work it fine
again. Keep the ground worked and the
weeds will be destroyed. as well as giving
the seed wheat a fine seedbed. 1t will also
be an advantage to spread the manure after
blowing, so as to give the seeds Of weeds in
the manure a chance to sprout. The fire.
quent working of the soil Incorporates the
manure and enables the young wheat TO
make more rapid growth.
Eggs can be produced where milk and
butter must be omitted. The city lots are
utilized by owners of small floeks, and fowls
can have the run of lawns and orchards.
One advantage IN producing eggs is that the
prices obtained are much greater than for
other articles, and the hens can be made to
do service during nearly every month in the
year. Five acres devoted entirely to poultry
is considered sufficient to provide an income
of 500 above all expenses.
