The cultivation Of castor beans does
not differ materially from that OF corn.
In country where the seasons are

able as II has tendency 10 make too
much stalk; therefore on good. rich
soil, where there IL no fear OF chinch

boards. cheap muslin. or anything to
keep beans from popping out Of the
inclosure. The favorite way to cut is
TO have one-horse sled with n box
thereon as large as will slide between
the rows where the stalks are not too
high. A two-horse wagon is sometimes
used as in gathering corn. The stems
are cut as the pods mature and are first
piled upon the yard until they have
dried and commenced TO pop; they are
then spread thinly over the ground.
II there is room on the yard they may
be spread at once, where they are al
lowed to lie until they have fully
Popped. They are then scraped up
and cleaned with an ordinary tanning
mill. They pop with considerable force,
and but for the Enclosure great many
would be lost. When the weather Is
fine they must be cut every second or
third day. When they are first pied
upon the yard rain does not injnre
them. but after they have popped rain
blackens them and Injuries their sale.
Boards or tarpaulins must be at hand,
and Ia the event of rain they must
be swept in piles and covered. and w hen

spread. Ordinarily they yield from

A PORTABLE MANGER.

boxes In which &c give salt, and where
ear corn or ground feed can be fed II
desired. The feed boxes should be at
the back part of the shed and fastened
securely three feet from the ground.
The feed lot should be located on dry,
solid ground, and must be furnished
with good water troughs or tanks, and
around these there should be a foot ii
broken stone and gravel, so that in the
worst weather it would not get muddy,
but II in a locality where stone and
gravel cannot be had plank floor can
take its place. The yard mus. not be
allowed to become a mudhole, but be
kept covered with straw and the fodder
waste so as to keep the stock out of the
mud. Ii is advisable to have lot adj
joining inclosed with a secure fence in
to which the cattle can be driven If de-
sirable while putting their feed in the
boxes or hangers. Most cattle are fed
shock corn. and when this is the case
they are fed in portable managers made
feet wide and IL or IA feet long. They
must be made strong, and there should
be corner posts inches square. and one
post in the middle of each side, making
six in all. Cross pieces PA of strong,
hard wood, preferably oak, should be
bolted to the posts to hold them to-
gether and support the floor of the man.
gers, and the floor should be two feet
above the ground, so that the hogs that
follow the cattle can get under them to
get the waste corn. and the posts should
he feet and inches high so that the
hogs cannot jump into the hangers and
togive sufficient depth to hold the fodder
corn. The waste from the fodder will
soon accumulate around these managers
so as to keep the cattle clean. Six de-
horned steers. or often eight, will eat
from one of these managers. but would
advise that one he provided for each six
steers. II il is desirable at any time tc
move the managers a low sled can be
placed beside it and two men can tip
the manger over on the sled and take il
where it is wpted. The managers
must be so arranged rs to give plenty OF
room to pass between them with the
wagon and turn the team and pass out.
The hangers should stand far enough
apart so that cattle can stand and eat
out Of either side or end OF any one OF
/ them and not interfere with those al
the adjoining hangers.
The value of the corn for hogs Is esti-
mated by experienced cattle feeders
10 be on an average half as much as il
would he IL fed TO the hogs direct in
stead of to the cattle and there have
been cases where the hogs have made
unusual gains. and pork has advanced
in price during the period of feeding,
that the gain On the hogs has paid the
entire cost Of the feed. Another adj
vantage of feeding out the corn crop Is
that large quantities Of very rich
manure will be produced, W hich will in
crease the fertility of the farm. 1 met
farmers at the institutes during the last
winter who said that they had more
than doubled the productive capacity
of their firms by feeding cattle for q
series Of years. The illustration shows
one of the feed managers. - Waldo H

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

The COW likes variety Of food; graf.
Fly her rs often as you can.
No butter-maker. however expert,
can make good butter out Of poor
cream.
An expert says that popular taste
does not require as much salt in butter
as formerly.
Scrub" cows average not more than
100 to 1875 pounds of butter per year.
Double this yield.
When the creams of different cows
arc mixed together great care should be
taken to see that the whole is thorough
ly mixed and ripened
This is the time of year when cows

trouble may be avoided, by seeing that
the tcats are thoroughly dried imme-
distely after milking. II they become

method Of grating can be applied

To be operated on ought to be severed
rather close to the main branch, only
leaving about two inches. The cuts
must. of course, be made TO correspond
as nearly as possible with those on the
scion; or this method can be applied to
young trees as stocks where they are
too large for splice grating. This
method Of grating gives stability to
the work and the gratis are not 20
liable to be blown out as in some Others.
The system is much appreciated in
Shropshire by amateurs who have time
on hand for the work. and has proved
very successful. Probably many per-
cons do not practice ii on account OF it,
requiring more time to prepare the
ecions, and also the stocks, than older
styles. but in my opinion II only re.
quircs little practice and patience to
become expert in the work.

After the care Of the cows and tho

the marketing Of the produce proves a
stumbling block to great many OF
our dairymen. 1t is sad. but it is true.
that the average dairyman exercises
little or no business fdtulty in the
marketing of his product. Too many
persons seem to think that as their
parents and grandparents MIXED cows
and made butter, and took it to the
grocery store, where 1t was dumped
