III your soil is Of rough character,
one blowing, with the narrowing follow
ing, Is the best possible means of pre-
pairing it for seed, but IL the ground is
tillable enough so you can pillow under a
crop, you had better spend two years
instead of one in the preparation for a
permanent pasture. Treat the soil the
first season by blowing and narrowing
1t, and at midsummer SOW crimson clover.
The next season when you pillow it under
you get great addition to the fertility
Of the soil. There is no way by which
you can get nitrogen so cheaply as by
blowing in this crop of clover. 1t costs
nothing except the use of the land, the
price of the seed and the labor of put
ting 1t in.
have tried 20 varieties of grasses and
find the orchard grass is the most valua-
BILE pasture grass in this world. Second
to it is redtop, third, crested dogtail, and
fourth, meadow foxtail. The latter is
the first grass in the spring to grow.
You will have the first bite for the ami
mails of meadow foxtail in the spring
when the other grasses are just begin
and May, and then 1t takes rest until
September In the autumn there Is a
most bountiful growth of meadow fox
tail, and it is one of the most valuable of
pasture grasses. Fifth, | have two var
ieties of fescues; there l stop. All 9TH
ers [ have discarded and these are
enough, because they include varieties
that will grow from the very first in the
spring, as soon as the snow goes away,
and come on in successive stages with
fresh growth all through the season until
winter sets in.
Be liberal with your pastures and
never overfeed. Never put so much
stock on your pastures that they will
wipe out everything down to the ground
for the sake of a little nibble of grass.
The way to have pastures Is to always
have pasture. Protect the growth, and
do not allow the stock to eat the growth
clear down to the ground, for If you do
you are apt to have no more growth.
The secret of having good pastures is in
the treatment of them. If you find that
some portions are becoming scanty, top
dress them with manure.
For meadows, timothy and clover for a
mixture make a very harmonious combi-
nation. There are other grasses which
are good for this purpose. The orchard
grass so much desplsed perhaps is one.
1t should be cut early and in this locality
is ready to cut and take in the barn by
June 10, and generally by June 10. If
orchard grass is cut then it Will not grow
in punches. The addition of redtop to
timothy and clover is an Improvement.
Timothy sends out leaves down near the
ground. Redtop sends out its leaves i'm
mediately over the ground occupied by
the plant and you can't NOW it so as to
cut these leaves clear down. Because of
this it makes good shade for the roots
and If redtop is used the timothy will last
two or three times as long.-Extracts
from an address delivered to a ConnectI-
cut board of agriculture meeting by
James Wood.

FIRE RANGED MANURE,
And Farmers Contradictory Opin-
ions About Its Value

Every farmer has had more expert
ence than he desired with fire fanged''
manure, yet we will at times find farm
ers who declare that they had just as
good crops from it as from the best of
barn manure. Commenting upon this
question of the effect of fire fanging on
the value of manure, j. +. ii. Gregory
says in American Cultivator:
The action of the oxygen on the nj
trogen which enters into the composi-
ton of the manure practically destroys
1t in the burning process. This is real
ly all the essential loss our manure
heap has undergone. The absence Of
moisture, which has been dried out by
the heat, is in reality no loss as far as
its plant food value goes. The only
vital change, then, in our manure is
that it has lost much of its nitrogen.
the phosphOric acid and potash con-
tents being the same in quantity after
it has been fire fanged as they were be-
fore
We have not a table of analysis at
hand, but it is safe to say that the nj
trogen constituent Of barn manure is
about equal in value to the phosphoric
acid and potash elements combined.
On this basis Of value badly fire fanged
manure is cord for cord worth about
half as much as that which is in its
natural condition.
If it be asked how, then, can any
farmer find the same value in it as in
that which has never been burned, the
answer is the same in kind as that to
be made to those who state that on
their crop leached wood ashes has as
good an effect as does the unleacbed
1t is in both cases that the crop did not
need the absent element. In the one 1t
was nitrogen and in the other potash.
If the nitrogen burned out could be
returned, then the manure would, Of
course, be as valuable as before. This
can be done by adding fish waste, night
soil or some chemical rich in nitrogen
to the manure heap, such as nitrate of
soda or sulphate of ammonia.

The Cranberry Fireyyorm

The larvae of Rhopobota vacciniana,
or cranberry fneworm, cause consid.
cradle damage to the cranberry crop
OF Massachusetts. The larvae Of the first
brood seldom cause much injury, while
those of the second brood are often ex-
ceedingly destructive. Where the cram
berry boys can be flooded with water
at the proper season for destroying the
larvae. this method is very effective, but
In many cases it is impossible to use
water in this way. Experiments were
tried with arsenate of lead, which was
used as q spray at the rate Of pounds
TO 100 gallons of water. The first appli-
cation was made in the early part of
June. The second brood of caterpillars
appeared during the first part of July,
and second application was made,
the insectlcide being used at the rate of
1871 pounds to $50 gallons of water.
Nearly all the larvae were DESTROYED,
and great saving in the cranberry
crop was the result of this method. 1t
was found that three men with a good
outfit could spray eight acres of cram
berry bog in ten hours.

ley. The crop is ready to cut for hay
when the dominant variety in the mix
ture is nearly ripe. If there are more
peas than grain, then the following Of
the pea vines and pods marks the
proper time for cutting, or If the oats
exceed the peas the mixture should be
cut when the grains are in the dough
stage. For a seed crop the peas are
often grown alone.
The field pea is not suitable for cul-
tiyation in the middle or southern
states because of the ravages of 4
vine mildew which affects the yield
of forage and seed. 1t requires long,
cool season, with gradually increasing
heat toward the time of maturity.
Analyses show the peas to be rich
er food than wheat bran, but less con-
centrated than the gluten, linseed, cot
tonseed and soy bean meals.
The field pea is an excellent soillng
crop for late spring and early summer
use, furnishing large amount Of sue
culent forage which Is relished by cat
tie. 1t deserves wider cultivation by
northern farmers.

TRANSPlANTlNG ONIONS,
Eet the "Hang" of the Business, and
1t Is CheapIy Done.

When l first got on to the new wrin-
kle in raising onions, l found that 1000
plants were about all that a novice
was able to put into the ground in one
day, and, as we made the rows one
foot apart and set the plants three
inches apart, | calculated that TO set
the 10000 plants on one acre would
cost not less than $50, even with chem
labor But now that we have "tbe
hang" of the transplanting business
and with the ground in as good order
as it should be we can set double that
number with just as much ease. We
now plant inches in the rows and
make the rows IA inches apart. and the
work of planting an acre represents
less than 80 days labor, an outlay of
less than $50 to $50.
The point is to have the soil very
fine and mellow, so that the planting
can be done with the fingers alone and
without the use of a dibber. The work
then progresses very rapidly. Pick UP
a plant with the left hand and place
the bulb part upon the ground a little
to the right of where you wish the
plant to stand. Then press the index
finger of the right hand upon the bulb
and push it down to it's place. For Il
change, you can take the middle finger
Of the right hand. At any rate, it
takes only one motion and the thin
Is done. With little practice a min
BILE fingered youngster will set 5000
plants in ten hours. 1t is hard work
and somewhat tedious and hard on
the back and knees, and knee pads
will come handy. For that reason
shall rejoice when we get machine to
set onion plants.
We find very material difference in
the cost Of wedding in favor of the new
method as against the older plan.
This is especially the case later in the
season and on land infested with
purslane. 1t is almost impossible to
keep this weed down in the heat of
early fall.
Onions grown on the new plan ripen
up weeks ahead of those grown from
seed. When the purslane begins to
crowd us, we pull and market the
onions, and for several years past we
have sold these early large bulbs at an
average of So cents per bushel, says II.
Greiner, who gives the foregoing adj
vice in American Agriculturist. ~

CANADA FIELD PEAS.
Farmers Appear Greatly Interested
In Them This Spring.

ers giving attention to the claims of
the field pea as a soiling and hay crop.
Agrostologist j. G. Smith is authority
for the following in regard to this
plant:
There are many varieties of the field
pea in cultivation. The cut shows a
blue kind as grown in Canada.
In Canada the acreage of field peas
is about the same as that of winter
wheat Much of the success of the
Canadian farmers in fattening beef
and pork for export is said to be due
to their extensive use of pea and oat
hay and pea meal.
The field pea is adapted to cultiva-
ton in the northern tier of states,
from New England to Washington. 1t
Is sown in early spring at the proper
time for seeding grain, using from
to IL bushels of peas and an equal
quantity of either oats, wheat or bar

Spring is here.
Purify your blood. Take Panes celery
compound.
1t is the one spring remedy sought after and
highly esteemed by intelligent, earnest men
and women throughout the land.
Paine's celery compound has created its
own constituency.

pound when themselves sick, but persuade
their families to do the same
And yet when the history of this wonderful
remedy is studied it is easy to understand why
Panes celery compound thus stands alone
and superior to all remedies in the estimation
of the public.
1t is physicians remedy
1t is the prescription of Edward f. Phelps,

Alfalfa.

The Ohio experiment station has Just
issued a bulletin on alfalfa. Among
other things it recommends that alfalta
be sown on good, well prepared and well
drained soil. 1t says
Don't SOW alfalfa on poor soil.
Don't SOW alfalfa on wet soil.
Don't forget to clip it three times the
first year.
Don't turn any stock on it until the
next May.
Don't let alfalfa hay get dry before
raking.
Don't fail to cut your hay in time.
That means to be ready to cut by June |.
Don't ever let stock on your alfalfa
meadows in cold weather.
Don't SOW alfalfa seed on unprepared
soil, as you do clover.
If it fails with you, manure the ground
and try again.
Sow 10 or 20 pounds of alfalfa seed per
acre any time during May. Alfalfa is a
perennial, and good meadow will last
for years. 1t might be tried in an exper-
mental way in Addison county.

Cheap and Handy Onion Crates.

Cheap and handy crates for handling
onions and onion sets can easily be

and, if not tight enough to hold onions
nail ends of ceiling lath between with
wire clinch nails. Bore the bottom

Sincerely yours,

ALGER NJ. WHEELER.
The superiority of Paine's celery compound
is well illustrated by the way entire families
are benefited whenever any one member Of
the household tries it, Nothing is more COM
mon than for husband, wife, and children to
be led to use it, because they have observed
its matchmaking effects in the case of some
relative intimate friend
Young and old now need to take spring
remedy to purify their blood, to feed their
tired nerves, and to invigorate their bodies.
Long experience has shown the necessity Of
such spring cleaning for everybody, sick or
well.
Thousands are taking Paine's celery COM
pound.
1t is so far above all other spring medicines
in its Strengthening, nerve-restoring blood
purifying, health-giving, lasting effects that it
has no competitor among discriminating
people.
The old "cures" one by one, in the last few
years, have dropped by the way, until today
the sales of Panes celery compound in every
civilized country are larger than those of all
other spring remedies of all kinds combined.
People Just sick enough not to be healthy
every city is full of such semi invalids-should
take advantage of Paines celery compound to
put their blood and nerves INTO a healthy
condition.
Spring is the time to get we'll.
