1t is well to sow the clover seed OF
winter grain as early as March, and on
the snow, if possible. There need be no
fear that seed thus sown will be wash
ed away. unless in places where the
land is not only overfiowed but strong
current is running. The seed is heavy
enough to sink in water. and it is pretty
sure as it touches the moist earth to be
imbedded in it and ready to grow. On
spring grain. of course. this early seed
ing is not possible. for the surface must
at least be dry enough to cultivate, and
snow rarely falls after that time. We
have, however. occasionally sown
clover seed on snow over spring sown
grain. and neither the seeding nor the
grain crop was injured by the snow

Tie experiments that have been tried
in introducing water freely below beds
of growing plants have proved con-
clusively the value of this kind Of
watering. The cross section given
herewith shows how one may readily
try this experiment for himself this
spring. Select the spot where a small
bed is to be devoted to foliage or other
plants, and sink an empty key In the
center just below the position of the
coming roots. Fit an old piece of tin
pipe, as suggested in the sketch, and
your ''irrigating plant is ready for
businessl Not only can water be thus
freely applied, but liquid manure also.

Filthy drinking water kills more
fowls than cholera, roup and half
dozen other diseases.
In feeding calves it is a good plan to
add a small quantity of oil meal cooked
to jelly to the skim milk to take the
place of fats.
For cream, milk should be set as
quickly as possible after milking, and
the temperature reduced at once to pre-
vent the formation of fibrin To this
end all the improved methods tend
A California man has a steaming
process for killing insects on fruit trees.
The process consists of heat ting the at
mosphere about the trees to about 100
degrees, which does not injure the trees,
but destroys insect life.
Give every tree that bore heavily last
season a good top dressing of well
rotted manure, out as far around at
least as the branches extend. II the
ground is in cultivation, fork this well
down into the soil in next springs cul-
tiyatiOn.
Early potatoes may be secured by
early planting of early varieties in deep,
rich, warm soil, followed by thorough
cultivation or mulching with straw.
We scatter the straw about four inches
deep just as the plants are coming
through the ground.

Not as much is said recently about
dehorning cows that have been allowed
to grow to maturity with these useless
and dangerous appendages. We hope
it is because dehorning the calves by
applying caustic potash to the places
where the horns start has made dehorn-
ing needless. There Is not only free
dom from danger to attendants from
cows without horns, but there Is much
greater economy in stabling them.
Without horns number may be put
together in loose stalls, with much
greater freedom Of movement than Ia
possible when the head is confined In
stanchions. Yet even when thus con-
fined. the horn may easily put out an
eye or seriously injure otherwise those
