Crows and Corn.

My experience is that one cannot
keep crows from cornfeIds any easier
or more surely than by stringing up
Irvine about the fields, occasionally
adding a crossline. From my earliest
recollection this was our practice, and
we suffered very little from crows;
while our neighbors, who depended on
scarecrows, guns, tinware or corn
soaked in tar, came out much worse.
We always saved the Irvine from year
to year, as it has to come down with
the first cultivation. and it is still
strong. AS to watching field with a
shotgun, it sometimes needs grit that
would go through South African war,
especially if a colony of crows get it
lin" for a field. A neighbor two years
ago opened such campaign, and had to
shoot eighteen crows, fairly finishing
the entire flock, before what was left
of the field was saved. 1t is safe to say
that the crop was good many bushels
cut down by what was taken, even
then. | believe in crows, as they live
on insects and mice from preference;
but they must live or die, and if pre-
ferred food is not plentiful, they will
do crops harm. Better. then, adopt a
harmless way of driving them from
cornfields.- Correspondence Country

Advantages of Lime.

Lime Is not fertilizer in the sense
that the term a generally understood
Its best use is to sweeten the soil al
though it possesses great value because
of its action ON the plant foods in the
soil, loosening them and making them
available. 1t is this action that gives
some people the impression that the
lime in itself is a fertilizer. Realizing
the action of lime on the plant foods
in the soil it should rarely or never be
applied to sandy soil, for in such soil
the fertilizers are lost quickly enough
and the plant food is easily released by
nature. On clay soils an application of
say ten bushels of air-slaked lime per
acre would doubtless be very beneficial
and one application in this quantity
should be enough for four or five years,
longer on soils that were well culti-
waited and fertilized

Principles of Pruni,s.


While the proper pruning of trees
viii not by any means, insure their
fruitfulness. it viii have more to do
with it than even experienced orchard
lists think. 1t is lamentable fact that
not one man In ten knows how to
properly prune a fruiting tree; it is
also to be regretted that more fruit
growers do not better understand that
proper pruning largely means yearly
pruning and net a general slaughter of
the limbs and twigs every three or
four years. This general practice sim
ply means urging the tree to make a
heavy growth of wood which is not
needed. In pruning. the experienced
orchardist cuts but slightly the strong
limbs, but Yields his knife and shears
vigorously on the light branches and
twigs growing on the inside and on
the underside of the tree. This is the
general rule and most growers of ex-
perience practice it with all fruit
trees, although In recent years expert
fruit growers seem inclined to take
out the stronger wood on peach trees,
although this plan is mainly to get the
tree headed low; still the peach often
requires different treatment from 9TH
er orchard trees which may best be
determined by experiments with diff
ferent plans, for while general prin-
ciples may be laid down it is not pos
sible to cover in such directions local
conditions.

Good Farm Gate,

a heavy gate that is opened a num-
Der of times daily is apt to sag in short
time if not well Graced. An excellent
way of overcoming this fault is shown
In the illustration The posts are
longer than those ordinarily used, and
are set foot deeper In the ground than
fence posts generally. Heavy fat
stones are placed about the bottom Of
the post, to which the gate is hung, and
these stones are braced on either side
by stout oak stakes. These stakes are
driven so that the tops are just below
the surface Of the ground. Three
strong hinges are used to hang the gate
and a sire 1g rod of iron is fastened to
the upright of the gate and to the top
bar. This helps greatly in keeping the
gate from warping or "racking' out at
the joints The latch fastening, though
simple, is effective. A slot is cut
through the front upright of the gate

Keeping Butter.

Good butter will keep sweet for many
weeks when it is placed in crock
after being made into rol wrapped.
in strong cheesecioth or old muslin
and then covered with brine strong
enough to hear up an egg. Saltpeter
and sugar may he added to advantage
while the brine is still hot in the pro-
portion Of a teaspoonful Of the former
and tablespoonful of the latte- to ev-
ery four quarts The brine must. how
ever. not be poured upon the butter I'M
I'll it is entirely cold.

Gr..w Alfnlfn.

Considerable has been said in this de-
partnlent in favor of alfalfa and the
prediction is now made that in less
than five years the farm where more or
less alfalfa is not grown will be an ex-
ception to The general rule. The only
possible objectlan that can be urged
against alfalfa is that it cannot be cut
Tor hay the first season after sowing
the seed. This is silly objection, for
certainly one can afford to miss this cut
ting if thereby they establish per-
maaent meadow that may be cut. after
the first year. several times during the
season. 1t has been demonstrated thar
the feeding value Of alfalfa is very
great. one authority claiming that Il j
feeding tcst 96 pounds Of alfalfa gave
the same returns as loo pounds Of

and the tongue of the latch run through
1t. a slot is mortised in the post, as
shown in the Illustration, and the
tongue run in, which gives secure
fastening. The latch or tongue is hung
from the bar of the gate by means OF
two pieces OF hard. smooth wood, bolted
together. with the tongue between the
lower ends. The bolt which runs
through the bar of the gate is loose
enough to permit the tongue to be
pushed backward and forward when
the gate is to be opened and closed.

for cabbage. and especially using pot
ash. Muriate Of potash is the best to
use and the least expensive. OF course
other fertilizers should also be used. A
good plan is to use the stable product,
experimenting it with muriate of pot
ash, and also to use heavy applications
of lime which releases the plant food
in the soil.
