INTENSIVE FARMING.
A Few Acres Well Cultivated Are
Better Than a Large Farm
> -'!'S ,s~* Superdcfally Titled. .~@e.

AS soon as we learn in this country
that fewer acres better cultivated are
better than many acres carelessly Gull
tivated, the greater will be the profits
of farming. The great extent and
original cheapness of our farming lands
have been detriment to us agricul-
turally. Thousands got their farms at
$1.25 an acre, and even less, added to the
original claim as rapidly as possible,
and engaged in farming ''all out DOORS -
Almost necessarily such farming is
loosely done. When there are, but few
acres under cultivation, they must be
made to produce what we need, and
they can be with less expenditure of
time and effort. The English farmer
compels his few acres to yield as much
of our many acres do, because his sys-
tenn is more perfect. The farms of the
future will be smaller. The time will
come after we are gone-when herds
will not rove over great fields, but will
be soiled; when the wheat and corn
crops will be made to more than double
the present average yield, and when
farming will be less irksome because it's
operation will be more contracted in
every respect. If these things will be
profitable and desirable then, why
would they not be profitable and de-
sirable Northwestern Plowman.

WHEN 70 CUT HAY.
g Not BE Subject TO Important
Modincations.

d As q general proposition It is best
to cut hay just as it is blooming; but
this rule may be subject to modifica-
tions according as we want the hay for
feeding dairy cows, horses, or other
stock. For horses it is probably bet
ter to have the hay well along toward
maturity. Storer in one OF his books
says that zone strong objection that
works against the early cutting of hay
is the tendency Of hay made from
immature grasses to loosen the bowels
OF animals. that feed upon it. This
fact alone precludes the use of such
hay for working horses. ! All newly
made hay has a laxative and loosening
effect upon animals. Such hay can not
be sold to the keeper of a livery stable,
because, as he would say, he has no
wish to soften down his horses. Horse
keepers are, of the opinion that this
laxative quality of new hay endures
until the hay has passed through a
process of sweating, which occurs in
the NOW. No; matter how dry the hay
is at the time it is put in the barn, it
is held that it will always sweat some
what in the NOV. BY October the
process is , completed, 50 that the hay
is fit for use, provided it was ripe
enough when mown: But in the case
of hay made from young grass, as
rowen,;; for example, the medici NAL
quality. persists, and such hay is
thought to be always unfit for horses
that are kept at work, since it is apt
to weaken them, to make them sweat
easily, and to render them liable to
stumble .,.,t
Such is the opinion of Storer. How
far it is borne out in the experience of
western farmers is rather. difficult to
say.-Farmers' Review. =

REMEDY FOR l,l GApEs
1t 1. Away. Enective ana Can BE
Applied without Danger tosthe ::
,.t' Youngest Birds. -. Gt.':S

. There are several remedies for
gapes, but the difficulty is that some
times the chicks must be handled. The
difficulty occurs mostly on farms upon
which fowls have been kept for years.
1t is caused by a collection of small,
threadlike worms in the windpipe Of
the chicken. To kill these worms and
not injure the chicken is laborious.
Take a glass tube with small rubber
bulb (Which apothecaries sell for a
"medicine-dropper"'), half fill it with
cam'phorated oil, and inserting the tip
in the windpipe, discharge the oil. A
small oil can used for sewing machines
may serve in place ofaszAthe medicine
dropper. Operate as follows: Place the
chicken back downjbetween your knees
and hold it gently; open the bill and
draw the tongue. Seize. the lower man
dible and tongue thus drawn out be-
tween the forefinger and thumbnail of
the left hand. This will bring into view
the opening into the windpipe at the
base of the tongue, into which gently
insert the tube and discharge the oil.
using about one drop. Close the bill
and hold the head still for few Sec
onds. Then let the chicken go, and it
will cough, scattering some of the oil
out, but enough remains to destroy the
worms, and they will be coughed up
and swallowed. The gapes continue for
some time after the treatment, bat the
remedy will be effectual in every case
if properly applied. and it may be read
lily repeated, if considered worth while,
as often as necessary. After a little
practice it is very easily applied and al
ways succeeds. "A breadcrumb upon
which is one or:two drops Of a mixture
of camphorated oil and oil of turp pen
tine forced down the throat is some
times effectual, but it does not always
reach the windpipe. Pulling out the
worms with the strip of feather is
painful to the chick.-Farm and Fire
