A PEST OF PLANTS.

One Of the greatest pests Of plants
in the greenhouse or in rooms is the
red spider, very little fellow, but
full Of mischief. Whenever the leaves
begin to look unhealthy or to have
a kind of grayish appearance, the
presence of this tiny insect is indi-
Gated Water is his great enemy, and
plentiful Swinging conquers him. But
care must be taken to apply the water
not only to the upper side OF the
leaves, but to the under side as well.
When the plants are not, large, it is
a good plan to place one or both
hands on top of the pot in such way
that the soil will not fall out when it
is inverted, and then immense the
plant in water for a minute or two.

THE RIGHT FOOD.

To feed variety of food does not
require the farmer to make COM
plete change from certain kinds TO
Others, but to avoid combining the
stock to one or two kinds only. Corn
and hay are excellent foods and need
not be discontinued, but cut roots,
silage, cooked potatoes or turnips, or
evena mess of scalded cut clover, Will
be readily accepted, while bran or
ground oats may be given regularly.
The rule should be to observe the ami
NAL, and when it refuses any pa-ticu-
lar food tempt it to eat with some
other kind.

No one who produces a superior ar

The market always seeks the pest'
ana invites it, but inferior goods must
search for market, and frequently
such effort is fruitless. Quality nxes
the price, and even when the market
is well supplied, there is always more
room for the best.

FEEpINe AFTER FoALING.

Both mother and young must be
housed at night in a roomy stall. and
food must be given which stimulates
the flow of milk, such as boiled roots
and bran mashes; these, of course,
being dropped off as the grass comes.
The usual allowance of oats should be
continued, for the mares system re-
quires as much feeding to produce
milk as to produce work. A mare
and foal do best when they have a
little field to themselves. A mare
with foal should, of course, do no
work at all; if such is tried there is
great danger that the eXertion and
sweating of the mother will react on
the milk and make it deleterious to
the foal In addition to this. if the
foal is shut up while the mother is
at work it goes hungry TOO long, and
may suffer in another way. Many
farmers, of course, manage to work
the mare part of the time-sometimes
even allowing the foal to run along
side when the mother is at work.
but it is unquestionably best to let
them run wholly at grass, at least at
first-P. Mcconnell In the Massactu-
sets P1oughman.
There has been all sorts of results
with wheat following potatoes, and
such results have largely followed
closely in accordance with the fertil-
izers used. Naturally. as wheat does
best on a soil which has been we'll
worked and prepared, following the
potato crop with wheat offers every
chance for good crop OF the cereal
but always provided the proper fertil
izers are applied and in considerable
quantity, for it must be remembered
that the potato crop has not left much
OF the applied fertilizer for any fol
lowing crop, and second, that the &C
tion of the fertilizer will necessarily
be slower during the season in which
the wheat gets its start.
In following potatoes with wheat try
this. plan. Rake off the potato tops
and with the harrow level the soil and
loosen 1t to the depth of two OF
three inches; then roll the ground
and drill in the seed with 200 pounds

izer rich in phosphoric acid. The pc
