A Dehorninr Cage.

A convenient and easily constructed
dehorning cage is shown in the accom-
panying cut reproduced from the Ma
tfonal Stockman and Farmer The di-
mansions Of the cage are as follows:
Six feet long, feet high, 31a feet wide
at top in front and Az feet wide at top
at back end. Bottom or foot board l
foot wide, with seven cleats ~ inches
thick, ] foot long, nailed across it to
keep cattle from slipping. Foot board
two inches thick, and rests on three
2x4 inch cross pieces feet long. 10
these are bolted upright pieces feet
long, 2x4 inches, for nailers for sides
of cage. Across the top of cage are USED
two strips 1x4 inches for each set of
upright bolted one on each side of up
right. The inside Of this frame is
boarded up with inch plank of con-
venient widths. The lower 212 feet
should close enough to prevent animals
putting their feet through the cracks.
On left side, 31a feet from bottom,
should be used board one foot wide,
and one foot longer than the cage. In
this bore two one-inch holes four
inches from sides of board. Through
these put piece of rope and tie on out

Raising Broom Corn.

Broom corn is easy to raise and care
for if a man will exercise good judg-
ment. Plant in rows four feet apart;
plant about eight pounds of seed per
acre. If the seed is clean Il common
corn planter can be SO arranged as to
plant the proper quantity. The corn
should be thinned out until the stalks
stand about two or three inches apart
in the row, or, if very good land, would
not hurt to let it stand a little thicker.
Cultivate as common corn. When the
brush is at it's best, or, rather, when
the seed begins to turn from its light
color, and before the brush begins to
turn red, it should be cut in haste.
Walk between two rows, reaching as
high as possible; break the stalks down.
breaking both rows as you go, and
break both toward you, When you
have gone around this way -four rows,
take your knife and start back the way
YOU came. cutting the brush off, leaving
a stem of about six inches. When you
have a handful of brush, break a few
stalks down just behind you, SO the
stalks will be between you and the two
rows you first broke; lay your handful
Of brush on this, as it protects 1T from
the ground; put what is convenient on
this, and make more to suit. On the
two other rows you can use these piles
also. When the days cutting is done,
If there be any likelihood of rain, gath
err up your brush and make a good bot
tom with stalks; lay your brush on this
In two piles, with heads together; cover
over good with stalks, and your brush
is safe. But If the weather is favor
able, let it lie for one day and night,
and then gather up. After few days
your brush will be cured and have 81
fine green color. Haul in when con-
venient, and stack in as large piles as
you like, and, if dry, it will keep safe
and sound.-Lee Mcconnell, in Farm
er's Advocate.

Butter Flavor.

The flavor of butter, it is very evil
dent, depends principally upon the
proper ripening of the cream and upon
the absence of bacteria, says the
Stockbreeder's Magazine. Thus the
washing of butter in granular condi-
ton with pure water is matter Of far
reaching Importance, for if this is neg
lected the butter will contain milk, SUI
gar and bacteria. Chemical action
brought about by the latter will hasten
decomposition of the butter. The en-
emies that have to be dealt with i'll the
dairy are invisible and therefore all
the more difficult to wage war against.
1t is only unremitting care and con-
slant and almost scientific cleanliness
that will prevent their development.

Cutting Strawberry Runners.

A great deal of work is usually re-
quired in keeping the runners cut back
ON the strawberry bed in summer. New
shoots are constantly being sent out,
and wholesale method of cutting them
off Is needed. Get the tinman to cut
you 1O-inch circle from the heaviest
sheet iron or galvanized iron, and saw
a silt in the end of stout handle, and
pin the wheel at the center. This can
be run quickly along each side of row
cutting every runner in its path. Keep
the edges sharp.-Orchard and Garden.

Growing Barley.

Why is not barley grown more fire.
quently in New England? 1t will grow
where oats will, is sowed about the
same time, and the average yield is
nearly as large as oats, while it is
much more valuable as a feed for
swine and poultry. Our Canadian
neighbors think barley almost indis-
pensable for feeding purposes, but it is
many years since we have seen it
growing in any of the Eastern States,
excepting as it sometimes comes up
among the oats when the seeds are
mixed. In such cases farmers think
the oats are no less valuable for feed,
and perhaps more SO, than would be
oats unmixed.

FumisatinK Poultry Houses.

Remove all nests, roosts and every
thing that is portable, put a pound OF
sulphur in an iron pan, with some burn
ing Goals, place the pan in the middle
of the house and close up the doors,
windows and all other openings, letting
them remain closed for two or three
hours. Afterward paint the roosts and
nest boxes thoroughly with coal tar,
and whitewash the house both inside
and out with lime A spraying pump
is very useful to get the lime wash into
the crevices in the roosts and walls. 1t
is beneficial to add some carbolic acid

1t is sometimes boosted by Western
farmers on rich prairie land that with
favorable seasons they have been able
to clear as much money from their first
good grain crop as the land originally
cost them. That is, however, usually
because the land was bought at SO low
rate that to make one crop pay all
the original cost might not, after all,
leave much, if any, profit to the farmer.
The breaking up of prairie sod SO as to
fit it for producing crop costs more
than the land did at first in many cases.
But to make old established and valu-
able farms pay their cost in crops Of
single year is a different matter. 1t is
most often done in growing fruit.
New Jersey farmer bought cultivated
farm well stocked with fruit of all
kinds for $1,000. Last year he sold
from it $2,45O, or $3.50 more than the
whole farm cost him. Besides fruit he
grew and sold vegetables, milk and the
other products of ordinary farmers. All
of these added to his income and in
creased his profits. He had doubtless
a favorable year for fruits, but, as the
New York Farmer says, the question
what profit a farmer shall make de-
ponds more on the man than on his
crops or location. 1t is not uncommon
for market gardeners to grow crops
that exceed in value the land which
produced them, and it is sometimes
done by farmers who grow potatoes and
cabbages. Cultivator.
