SWEET CORN PATCH.
ligent Farmer That He Cannot
DO without 1t.

No farmer knows the advantages de-
rived from . good patch Of sweet corn
until he has tried it. When he has once
had q patch, he is q very curious farm
er, indeed, il he fails to plant in after
years. 1t IL not only good for table
use, but most excellent for helping out
the pastures and keeping up the flow
Of milk. 1t is also good for hogs. They
will devour 1t, stalks and all, unless
fed too much at a time. They will
chew up the stalks, taking all the
Juice out and leaving nothing but the
fiber. It is one OF the cheapest ways
Of making pork. But II you feed too
much hogs will eat the ears first, and
leave too much of the stalks.
Sweet corn can be planted from the
1st Of May 70 the 4th Of July with
safety. The late planting should be
some Of the earlier sorts, such as Early
Minnesota. But the early planting,
up to the middle Of June, may be Sto
wells Evergreen. The latter variety
makes . very large crop Of fodder.

The sman sized farm Is the sort Of
farm have siways had faith in. belisv-
ing that q good living and pleasant
home can be had thereon with less
worry and contention than on the
large farm and the tendency seems TO
be to decrease the size of the farms
from what they have been nearly. all
over the land. As time goes on and the
population Of our country becomes
more dense this will probably be the
case in a larger degree than it is at
present. l believe in more thorough
working of the soil-intensive farm
ing, if you please. That is the kind that
is the most profitable without doubt.

Keeping Boys on the Farm.

The boys on the farms crowd to the
cities as soon as they are old enough to
do so, but this condition of affairs is due
to the fact that the boy is not taught to
take an interest in farming. He must
work before he goes to school, and also
on his return home. Give him pony
