with a small farm gets more COM
fort and satisfaction from his work,
and quite as much net profits as the
one with "A larger farm.
Might it not be we'll for those
farmers who have been growing
more wheat and corn than they
could sell at paying prices to turn
their attention to the sugar beet?
The home demand will absorb 2,000,-
600 tons annually.
The United States has been an
nually paying a hundred millions
for raw sugar. Why not occupy this
field and add a most valuable article
to our productions? The sugar beet
is destined to deliver us.
Mammoth clover has some advan-
tages over other varieties; it can be
cut earlier-in time for a seed bed
for wheat; it produces more seed an
acre than red; when cut it leaves a
vast amount of vegetable matter in
the soil for the feeding of the next
crop.
When feeding oats to horses it is
worse than useless to thresh them,
as you only waste the money paid
for the work, and render the straw
of less feeding value.
Some men do not see that as their
land increases in value it must grow
crops of increasing value, or event
ually be farmed at a loss. Taxes
and interest value grow.

Stock.

When fed intelligently milk is
one of the most important elements
of we'll balanced ration for all
young stock. 1t makes excellent
calves and colts when fed with oil
meal jelly.
Europe sold us her best breeds of
sheep and cattle at fancy prices, and
now clamors for protection against
our cheap beef. We offer it the best
which sells in its markets-and that
is Just what we raise it for.
We can not have implicit conf
dence in the efficiency of good
breeding animals, especially of
bucks, for we must not disregard
their ancestry. Hereditary defects
may show up.
Scientific authority now ac-
knowledges what practical farmers
said long ago-that corn cObs have
a feeding value when ground with
corn. The farmers were right, but
could not tell why.
A strand of barbed wire on top the
fence will often restrain breechy or
unruly cattle and horses better than
an additional board or rail, even if
it does not make much show.
A good cistern, made with a filter,
and large enough to hold all the
water from the barn, will furnish
drink of the right temperature for
the stock, for both summer and
winter.
The whey of milk is not nutritious
when fed alone, but it is fattening,
and needs to be fed with rations
of wheat bran, ground oats or peas,
all of which abound in elements
which promote growth.
TO make the most of the feed con-
sumed, horses should be given a lit
tie salt at least once a day in theiI
food. Nature seems to have pro-
vided it as promoter of good di-
gestion.
The general principle prevails that
an animal possesses all the proper
ties of its ancestors in an average
degree. All the inheritage proper
ties are reproduced by hereditary
transmission.
The cheapest way in which W,
can lessen the cost of production i;
to shorten the time we take to make
it ready for market. This we mus
do in the keeping of all live stock.
Sheep and hogs should be a
regularly supplied with salt as othe
animals, if we would get the best re
suits of growth and fat from tn,
food and water consumed.
1t Is not much more work to rul
the oats through the hay cutter than
to thresh them, and if the straw i
clean and bright it makes good foOC

Dairy.

1t pays to raise ones own calves
If we raise them from the best cows,
and they are sired by thorough
bred bull whose dam possesses the
milk or butter qualifications needed.
The owner has the opportunity
from the dav the calf is dropped UNI
til it is full fiedged COW to make it
gentle. Kindness is an important
item of the stock in trade on the
dairy farm, as it is everywhere else.
A dairy animal, if breeding, should
be kept in good condition, and be
provided with sufficient nutrition
for the development of her offspring.
If giving milk, the supply of food
should contemplate the process of
the secretion of milk.
1t is a most foolish and absurd
practice to stint an animal in food or
water. There is no time from the
birth of cow until she is disposed
of that starvation will pay.
Owners of fancy stock who are
worth a mint of money" usually do
things about right. 1t is in the
herds of ordinary bred cattle where
injury is more apt to be shown
from course of semi starvation,
Think about it.

Jefferson DayiS's HerOiSm.

A correspondent of the Nicholas
vile (Ky.) Journal who signs him
self"J. b. W., recalls an instance of
bravery and self-sacrifice in the
lite Of Jefferson Davis. The time of
the story is the summer of 1888 and
the scene Lexington, during the
siege Of Asiatic cholera, and the
writer says: "Whole families were
swept away in few hours, with
none left to bury them. No religious
services, no one to make collins,
everyone fleeing away, panic
stricken, like thieves in the night, on
foot if they could not ride, camping
out in the woods, sleeping in caves,
anything to get away. At this time
Mr.. Davis was a student at Transyl-
vania, then in the height of its pros
perity, and chief institution of learn
ing in the West, and number of
students boarded with a Mrs Janu-
airy on Limestone street, who was
the aunt of my informant, who was
also living in the same locality, and
is still living, in Independence. Mo.
In the beginning of the panic all the
students left except Mr.. Davis, who
remained throughout the session,
tenderly nursing this lady, who fell
victum to the dread disease, and
other members of the family, includ-
ing the servants, ministering to
them as gently as "a woman and
carrying them out and assisting in
their burial

Chronic KickerS.

Dost love a man who always kicks,
no matter what you do-who kicks
with prodigious ease the whole long
season through; who kicks if any
thing goes wrong and kicks if all
goes right; who kicks because he
likes to kick, and kicks with all his
might? We know some awful kick
ers on this wicked mundane sphere,
who come on earth by accident and
kick because they're here; they
make themselves uncomfortable and
other people sick they drive them
selves to suicide, and still they always
kick. We know man who kicks
and kicks the blessed livelong day,
and if there's naught to kick about
he's kicking anyway. At times
when things are going right and
other people smile, he kicks on gem
eral principles, and kicketh all the
while.-Greeneville Democrat.

HOrtiCulture.

The rich vegetable matter IN the
soil about the fruit tree can be con-
verified into available plant material
only by coming in contact with the
outside air; whatever else we do, we
should stir the surface, that the air
and rain my penetrate.
Although sage is a hardy plant, it
is sOwn by gardeners near New York
by early May, and transplanted to
the garden after other crops have
been taken off in July; $500 or $40O is
often made from an acre.
Small plants are much more safe
ly transplanted from one place to
another than larger ones. Not only
are they more likely to live, but the
check caused by transplanting is
comparatively slight.
When trees are small nearly all
the roots can be taken with the top.
In re-setting large trees nearly all
the roots procured are the larger
ones, and are of but little use in sus-
tanning life in their new position.
When large trees are removed
they have the disadvantage of be-
ing shaken more by the winds, be-
cause they have greater surface
they are loosened and greatly him
dered in getting new start.
1t costs no more to raise good
berries than poor ones, neither to
pick nor deliver them; freight and
express charges are the same.
When sold, good berries always go
first and bring largest prices.
A quarter of an acre, rich and well
cultivated, should yield from 20 to
40 bushels of berries. These will
supply the table beautifully, and
give a nice surplus to sell.
Most fruit gardens are deficient in
potash. An application of wood
ashes will supply this want, and is
especially valuable for light, sandy
soils.
If peaches are thinned until they
are four or five inches apart on the
limbs, every fruit is much more
likely to be perfect, and the croE
worth a good deal more than il
every peach is left which has set.
1t is hard to persuade grower tt

can be followed with better profit
Try few trees, and leave others t
their own way, and be convinced o
the truth or the folly of the sugges
ton.
1t the weak canes are cut out anC
the long, slender laterals pruned un.
til a we'll rounded bush is formed
the fruit will be improved not only
in size and quality but the yield will
be greatly increased.
If but little room can be given t
the orchard, plant dwarf pears anC
ounces. These will give a large
money yield than can be obtained
by planting the same land in larg
trees.
Four hundred and fifty quinc,
trees can be planted to the acre. |

the choice varieties it will be n

The open weather last week in

There is no other grain of which a
dollars worth will plant as many
acreas as corn. 1t does not pay to
use any but the most thoroughly
trustworthy seed of the best varie-
ties procurable.
If seed corn has been exposed to
extreme winter temperature, test it
by planting a given number of kerr
nels in box, and placing by the
kitchen stove; 95 per cent. should
show healthy sprouts.
A miss in getting good stand of
corn to start with is a miss clear
through, for no after work can atone
for mistake in laying the founda-
ton for crop.
If cultivated soil dries off and re-
mains crusted after rain, enormous
is the amount of water which will
evaporate in hot, windy day; it is
claimed that the amount will reach
100000 pounds an acre. Stir it.
Oats are just as hard on clover as
are weeds on the corn plant, and it
does not need shade any more than
does corn. Why not give it a
chance by sowing it alone and now
ing off the tops of young weeds.
The first ten days experience
after planting constitutes a crisis in
the history of the corn crop; the
weeds grow rampant, but frequent
shallow cultivation is thoroughly
! equal to the occasion.

While dairy farms may not give
as large yearly yields as those de-
voted to grain, they are worked at
much less expense for labor and
tools, and give as large clear income
Moreover, the land is the gamer all

Bones consumed with wood will

The bones will not be hard to find.
Practically, an acre consisting oil

The first thought of the careful

Items of Interest TO Farmers and
HOTSempn,

Many an acre produces its 500 or
more in grapes, and yet many farm
ers do not grow for family use, pre-
ferring to let the odd corners and
hooks grow up in weeds and bushes.
Keep the coops and runs of little
chickens perfectly clean; foul coops
breed disease and the chicks often
die from the effects, and you wonder
what was the cause of it.
AS soon as the young chicks can
eat whole grain, begin feeding them
whole wheat, or, better still if you
can, have corn, wheat and oats
crushed together and give them all
they will eat several times day.
