ing great preparations for their

for such work, and his numerous
friends in the city and elsewhere
wish him the success which his
long and important service merits.

Short-left town on a wild goose chase
up the river yesterday morning. They
had the usual luck-load too heavy
and mired in the first slough they tried
to cross. Hunters threw overheard all
surplus ballast, but still the horses
couldn't bulge the wagon. Then the
hunters got out and tried to assist the
horses, which pulled the wagon out Of
the mire all right. but left the men
stuck in the mud. Man came along,
threw them a rope, and, with the aid
of the horses. each luckless individual
was e~xtrlcated in turn from the mud
and most of his clothes. Inventory
showed the loss of three sweet tenn
pers, two dozen bottles of mineral
water and nine cakes OF limburger.
Consultation was held and the hunters
decided to return home, having had
enough sport for n day. They reach
ed town sometime before midnight.
The wagon contained three geese

Manaainl Clover.

One of the most important items
in managing clover for hay is to
get it well cured and stored away.
If put away too green, either IN
the stack or nov, it will heat and
mold and its value be greatly
lesSened as a food. If allowed to
cure too dry, more or less of the
nutriment is lost, the plant is made
more indigestible, while there is
an increased waste in handling.
On account of the risk of show
ers it is not usually advisable to
allow the cut clover to remain in
the swath on the ground too long
The better plan is to put it up in
reasonably small cocks and allow
it to cure thoroughly in this con
dition, This is especially the case
if the farmer has supply of hay
caps that can be put over the cocks
in case of rain.
One advantage in cutting rather
late in the afternoon is that the
clover does not have time to cure
to any extent before the dew be-
gins to fall, and if a shower should
come during the night or early in
the morning before the dew dries
off very little injury will result.
1t is when partly or wholly cured
that rain proves most injurious.
If the weather remains clear and
bright it can be put up into cocks
before night and, if the weather
will permit, may remain i'll the
cocks two or three day to cure out.
1t should be so dry that when the
stems are twisted tight no water
will come out of them.

Crops that Pay Best.

Small farms can be made to
combine many advantages. Some
poultrymen grow plums in the
poultry yards, and also keep bees.
Others grow early vegetables UNI
der glass and also grow two or
three crops in the open ground.
One gardener near Philadelphia
makes large profit on four acres
on which he grows only lima
beans. Another makes peas a
speciality, following the peas with
late cabbage. To attempt to Earn"
four acres in the usual way, with
wheat, corn, oats, etc, would cause
bankruptcy. The crops that pay
best are those that require the
most hand labor.

Farm Economy.

Economy on the farm is where
the profits are made. The utiliza
ton of foods that are usually
wasted will permit of keeping
more stock and cheapening the
cost of production. A leading
New York farmer states that the
saving of only &c day on the
cost of each COW in the state
would amount to over $4,000, 900 a
year. The gain of only one quart
or milk day would make an adj
ditional profit of $I2,ooo,ooo in
one year.

Brittle iiOOfs OF Horses.

Horses are frequently troubled
with brittle hoofs caused by a de-
fciency of water in the bone.
There are a number of causes that
produce this effect. Fever of the
feet or common founder; inf1amma-
ton of the interior of the foot;
filthy stables or exposing the foot
to fermenting manure, from which
cause the horn of the hoof be-
comes saturated with moisture
containing ammonia; allowing the
foot to remain covered with mud;
even long-continued hot and dry
weather or an unhealthy condition
of the animal will sometimes pro-
duce this trouble in the feet.
The horn becomes dry and gran
ulated, and on this account sepa-
rates very easily, often crumbling

and splintering away until there
is hardly sufficient crust lett TO
fasten a shoe upon.
The main point in remedy IS
to restore the moisture by frequent
washing of the feet with cold
water, giving proper attention TO
the health and condition OF the
horse, clean bedding and an earth
floor or a deep bed of sawdust to
stand upon. Glycerine and water
in equal parts is an excellent
dressing for the hoof. Giving an
occasional soft feed, as a bran
mash, to which a small quantity OF
oil meal has been added, will
prove beneficial, as it keeps the
horse in good condition. While
tar is good remedy, care must be
taken in its use. By having a
good, dry floor and observing
cleanliness this trouble may be
avoided.

rows 3 feet 6 inches to 3 feet 8
inches apart. Plant either in hills
or drill'rows. When your corn is
large enough to pillow, commence
by blowing the first row on the
side of the field. Skip every
other row. When you have gone
over the entire field in this way,
commence blowing the rows which
have been missed. | find that by
this method it is much easier to
turn without breaking down corn
at the ends, especially SO after
corn is knee high or higher. In
dry, hot weather this method of
blowing keeps down the weeds
better, and is less injurious to the
roots of the corn. This method
retains the moisture much better
than blowing the rows as they
come. We are able also to kill
weeds in the center of rows much
more readily, because those that
have not died as the result of
the first blowing may be killed
on the second.

BY cutting out the top during
the early stages of growth in a
majority of cases, a low-spreading
growth may be readily secured.
Some of our best growers are
now advocating no pruning.
There is no question that in many
cases much harm is done to a good
tree by overpruning, and on this
account is a choice between no
pruning and the serious injury
resulting from over-pruning. No
pruning is rather the better plan.
One advantage claimed for not
pruning is that there will be no
water sprouts. While pruning to
some extent seems necessary, in
order to get rid of crossing or a
trailing limb, yet care is necessary
not to prune too severely.
1t is, of course, best to remove
all dead or Diseased wood when
ever noticed, but with care taken
to supply conditions favorable to
a thrifty, vigorous growth, this
can be reduced to minimum
Certain is it that no limb or branch
should be removed without a good
reason. Better not prune than to
cut unnecessarily. One grower
claims that all that is necessary is
to pinch off the top bud of the
center stem of the tree and then
let further pruning alone
The only possible objection to a
low headed tree is that, after a
good growth has been secured, it
is difficult to cultivate close up
under the tree, but generally, after
tree has come we'll into bearing,
the better plan is to seed down to
clover, and it is only in exception
al cases that cultivation will be
necessary.

Good Poultry Food.

One of the best poultry foods
tor inducing egg production is COW
peas. They may be fed whole to
adult stock or cracked for chicks.
They are highly heterogeneous and
are superior to corn or wheat. An
other excellent poultry food is
rape, which may be grown on all
kinds of soil.
