Get Rid of the Males.

From the last of July to the mid
die of January a flock of hens do
much better without males among
them, and will continue to lay. They
are generally quieter, and ramble
over .he fields less, while they also
have more room and are better con-
tented. Some people make prac-
tice of saving all the eggs laid dur
ing September and October to put
down in brine or some other preserv-
alive to keep for use when the snow
flies. If they are carefully handled,
stood on the small end, and kept in
cool place, they will keep several
weeks without any pickle or pre-
servjno.-Farm and Fireside.

feet above the surface. The arm is
of wood two by eight inches by four
feet. It is fastened to the pole by
six-inch piece of pipe passing tight
ly through hole in the middle of the
arm and fitting into the top of the
large pipe. The vines are cut back
to two main branches each winter.
The shoots which bear the fruit
start each spring and are allowed to
swing free, according to the principle
of the Kniffin system, as in the illus
tration. The vines are cut back to
the two arms each winter, new
growth being substituted for the old
arms at the same time. Vines so
treated give good crop, easily gath
cred and of very fine quality and ap-
pearance. and the training is less
work than by almost any other meth
cd. Another advantage is that the
vines may be cultivated in both di-
rections with no wires to interfere.

THE CUTTING OF CORN.
Method Here Described Appears to
Save Lots of Labor and Prevent
Useless Waste.

We cut our corn with horse and
think it is easier and faster than by
hand. Our method is this: Take the
boat that you pick up potatoes with;
if you have not got one make one at
once. 1t should be about feet wide;
the runners can be made of 2X4 inch
stuff. with the front ends hewed off so
as to run over obstacles. A pinch
plank should be bolted on the front end
with notch cut in to hitch to, the rest
of the top may be made of inch boards
nailed across the boat. To cut corn
wing should be hinged on each side
slanting out and backward. We use an
old saw for these wings or knives, cut
ting it in the middle and filing the back
to an edge and boiling to the wings,
and using a small box for a seat. 1t
takes two persons, one for each row,
cutting two rows at once. We start
the shock by hand, cutting two rows
that the shocks are on, leaving four
hills for each shock. and allow ten
hills wide by five long. We tie with
rope with ring fastened to one end
of the rope; one draws the top of the
shock up while the other ties with
stalks. putting two bands around
each shock. In heavy corn five hills
makes an armful which makes two
armfuls for each side of shock. If the
corn is light one should G,.rry ten hills
which makes one armful or each side.
Not one of our shocks blew over that
we put up this way last year. The
fodder keeps better in large shocks
than in small ones. We pull the shock
over and husk in crates.-B. Single
