medical skill. Two miles southwark a
farmer had fine field of potatoes on
which the beetles were kept in subjec-
ton by Paris green. His boots hurt
his feet, so he removed them and went
around barefooted. No need of par
ticulars; his feet were poisoned, and he
died in few days.
Such instances might be multiplied,
but there should be no necessity for ST.
Many farmers and farm laborers are in
the habit of going baretooted in hot

ground on which Paris green has ever
been applied, is at their peril. The in
soluble poison is able to effect deadly
work in unexpected ways, and after its
use is forgotten or ignored.

Improving Rural Homes.

How to make our rural home more
beautiful is a problem that taxes the
energies of our farmers, and in the So
luton of which good deal of money
is lost. venture to suggest that the
first point of Importance is to see that
the street frontage is neat and as thor
oughly brought under cultivation as
the farm or homestead itself. 1t is ex-
tremely offensive to drive by some of
our pleasant homes and find that they
have made the street dumping-place,
or even place for growing weeds and
weed seeds. Second, | would leave the
land as near as possible as nature ar
ranged it. 1t is entirely unnecessary
to 90 into a large amount of scraping
and grading in order TO make beautiful
lawns. This may do in a city, but is
out of taste in the country. The knobs
and bluffs and swales are more beauti-
full than any possible graded plateau
that art can create. They allow of that
variety which pleases, and the absence
of which displeases. In the third place
| would beware of creating city lawn
anywhere about my house. This de-
testable little plot takes,up all the atten-
ton and time of the occupant and his
family to keep it smooth and trimmed,
while the rest of his plantation is left
to ugliness. / would Danish every
thing in the way of lawn mowers, max
ing it first rule that every part of a
place should be equally clean and
equally well trimmed.

Keep the Soil Covered.

One of the easiest plant foods to
lose in the soil is nitrogen. A soil
Astounding in humus will absorb and
retain nitrogen in the form of ammonia
compounds, but the nitrates, the form
in which plants mainly use nitrogen,
are apt to be washed out and lost when
the land is bare. But it has been
found that this loss is very small in
deed when the soil is covered with
vegetation. The soils of the cotton
fields of the south have lost far more
by the washing and teaching in the
winter rains of the bare ground than
they have through the cultivation of
cotton. A sell cover in winter is of
far more Importance in the south,
where the winter rains are heavy and
the soil seldom frozen hard, than in
sections where the sol, freezes up tight
or is covered all winter with IA deep
blanket of snow. But in either case a
soil cover of vegetation is of the great
est importance if no result was at
tanned but the retention of nitrogen.
But in the south the nitritication in
soil Astounding in humus goes on under
the cover all winter, and the soil is
actually gaining fertility instead of los
ing it. The fall is doubtless the best
time to deepen the soil by deep blowing
and subsoiling, but while this is true, it
is always better to leave some growth
on the land than to have it lie bare
during the winter. Many esteem rye
valuable green manure plant, and it
may become 80, not from any particu-
lar value in the rye itself, but from its
conservation of the nitrates, and thus
it may TO some extent act as a nitrogen
collector. AT any rate, rye is better by
far than bare fallow, and where no
better soil cover can be had use the
rye. There are farmers who have
clover sod which they propose to put
in corn the following spring, and IN or
der to facilitate the spring work they
pow the sod in the fall, imagining that
the mellowing influence OF the frost
will atone for any other loss. We
earnestly advise to let that sod alone
till you want to prepare the land for
corn. 1t will be saving your fertility
all winter, and even be adding to it.
1t is easy for any farmer to try the
simple experiment for himself of break
ing piece of clover sod in the fall and
another in the spring. Our word for
it, and we have tested the matter, the
spring-plowed piece will leave the other
in its shade. Whenever the land is not
in clean hoed crops keep the soil COW
cred with vegetation summer and win
ter if you want to retain and increase
its productiveness If you "give hui
mus a rest" and keep the land bare of
vegetation, you will sooner or later be
bare of crops.-Practical Farmer.
