Superstition lit lliejeliiif. A cycling paper recently told of a man who selected a whool but after ward, without any apparent reason, refused to take it. Ho wanted another one, and was satisfied with a machine that was an exact duplicate of tho ono he had rejected. Tho agent puzzled hiB mind to discover what the objec tion was to tho first wheel. Tho two were alike in every particular except the number. This gave tho clew. Tho number of the first wheel was 340.051, and tho total of theso individual fig ures was thirteen. That was tho ex planation, as the customer admitted. There is a sequel, however, and now tho superstitious man asserts that ho lias been fully vindicated.

FEriUXO SOFT FOOD TO URN'S. To keep a hen in good condition for laying, she should never have a full crop during tho day. It is not wrong to give a ligut meal of mixed food, warm in tho morning, in tho trough, but such meal should bo onlv one- fourth tho quantity tho hens require. They should go away from tho trough unsatisfied, and should then seek their food, deriving it grain by grain, en gaging in healthy exeroiso in order to obtain it, and in such circumstances the food will bo passed into tho giz zard slowly and bo better digested. (irndiially tho hen will accumulate stif- licient food to provide for tho night, going on tho roost with a full crop, where suo can leisurely forward it from the crop to the gizzard. Feeding soft food leads to manr errors on tho part of tho beginner, causing him to overfeed and pamper his hens, and by it they will reach a condition that is entirely antagonistic to laying. It is much better to feed hard "grains only than to feed from a trough, unless the soft food is carefully measured. A quart of mixed, ground grain, moist ened and in a crumbly condition. should be sufficient for forty hens as a "starter lor tho morning, but two quarts of wholo grain should then bo scattered in litter for them to seek and secure for themselves. Farm and Fireside, CEi.Enr. Celery is one of tho neglected vege tables that should find aplacoin every garden great or small. It comes so late that it may be grewn as an nftar crop where early potatoes or sweet corn has been grown. The seeds should be sown in seed bed, that has been mado perfectly fine aud tho seeds must be very lightly covered. Tho best way to sow them is to make very shallow furrows in the bed and cover tho seeds after they havo been drilled in tho furrow, by sifting fino soil over them. 'When tho plants havo giown to bo on inch high it is a pretty good plan to clip the tops off as this makes the plants stocky and vigorous. Celery delights in a moist soil and to do well it must be watered if the wenther is at nil dry. Tho common custom is to set the plants in trenches six or eight inches deep. These trenches should be deeply dug nd thoroughly tined in the bottom and mado very rich with fertilizers of somo kind, aa it is a rank feeder and must bo furnished abundant plaut food within a short distance as tho roots are short. Set the plants dur ing damp weather if possible, and as they grow draw the earth into tha trenches, gradually filling them as the pjants grow utguer, taking care to keep the soil lrom getting into the centre of tho buucU. This can be prevented by holding the tops with one hand and drawing the soil around mein wnu a noe, or preferably, with the other hand. When the trenches Bre filled the banking nn becins and at every working the soil should be uankeu a mtie Higher until the plants stand in a ridge reaching as high as tha stem of tho plants. This makes them white andcrisi). At tha last workinr tho ridges should be patted into firm ness with a spade so they will retain their shade. A new ulan that has been tried with tome success is to Bet the plants only a toot apart eacli way aud let them grow iu this shape; they will be so thick that thev will half blanch them selves, aud wheu they are fully grown iney can tie taken up and put iu a dark cellar iu boxes with a little soil around t,ho roots to fiuiah tho blanch ing process, or reset iu trenches and left there to blanch. Tho old plan we think is best for beginners, uud we should havo a lot of them iu this couutry, for thero is nothing thut is better for nervousness than to tat liberally of celery.

If possible, hay should be housed ou the day of euttin,.", but this will only answer if tho mow is largo and tho amount to be stored hunted. Those who grow the crop ou a laige scale adopt the plan of cutting it lute iu the afternoon. There is no mois ture on the pruss at this time, nnd it is so late thut it does not wilt at all that night, and therefore is not iu jured by the dew. The uext day after the dew is oil it should be tossed twice by the tedder, and, afUr it is thor oughly wilted, it should be raked up aud put into good sie l shocks, cov ered with waterproof hay caps to pro tect it from dew or rain, and lift to cure. Kxposure to the sun for u few hour just li f-Te 'drawing tj the baru Mill CJiuj'ItU' tLe I'rocias. The common mistake ia making bay is usually allowing it to lie in tho hot sun too long. The best hay is made by air curing rather than by tho sun drying. As for as possiblo hay should be etirod in tho bunch. It may be cooked tip much greener than form erly believed, providod it is fairly wilted nnd contains no extraneous moisture. If allowed to swoat before drawing it will rarely heat in the mow. Whon hay is first cut it should bo long enough in tho sunlight to dry it sufficiently tn allow it to be readily raked togethor into windrows. Tha hay todder is of great assistance in curing the hay by tossing it in tho air, thus exposing it so that, all moisture is rapidly dried out. When cured by tho wind rather than tho sun hay pro serves not only its green color, but tho aroma which renders it so palatable to stock. As tho nutritive properties of grass are all solublo in rain or dew, care mnst bo taken to protect tho hay from all moisture. If exposed to a long rain it becomes almost as worth less as straw, so greatly ia its foediug valuo impaired. In no direction have farmers pro gressed more than in their methods ot enring hay. If is no longer consid ered necessary to got every particle of moisture ont of tho grass. Excessive dryness is avoided. They have learned the difference between curing and over curing, and that whilo hay when twisted shculd not show moisture, neither should it be so dried as to show brittlenoss. Now York World. PinECTIONS FOB HOME CHEESE MAKING. Strain the milk into a vat and add halt a pint of rennot to 100 gallons oj milk, which should bring tho curd in ono hour when tho temperature is at about eighty dogroc s. Stir tho ren net and milk thoroughly. Manv of tho unknown troubles of the amateur cheese maker arise from tho use of ill conditioned rennet; if doubts as to its pnrity exist, it should be filtered through a flannel or cotton fibre. As tho condition of rennet, quantity of milk and temperature vary at nearly every cheeso making, the prepared rennet tablets sold ly dairy supply houses are undoubtedly mora certain in results, lo the beginner, a ther mometer accurately graduated is es sential to success. Tha curd is cut into one inch sqbares immediately aiier 11 uas lormeu, to iiaston the sep aration of whey and curd. Tho'cut ting is repeated two or three times at half hour intervals, and then dipped caroiuuy into a iiasket in which a strainer Las been placed. Arrange the basket on a ladder over the whey re ceiver and cut the curd occasionally to hasten draining, w lien compact and fairly free from whey, tie the strainer ends by opposite corners and hang in a cool place until the morning run is made. I roceod with tho morning's milk precisely in the same way nutil ready to hnug. This curd requires a little more draining that it may be firm and decidedly free from whey. cut tne night and morning curds in slices, place in a bowl and chop into pieces a nail inch in diameter. Pour over the curds a gallon of hot whey or water and stir until a squeaking sound is made. Drain off tho scalding water. add salt to taste, aud thoroughly mix in the curd. Place a dry strainer in the hoop, carefully introduce the curd, lold the strainer neatly over the top. put the follower on and consign to the press, unly enough weight shonld be used to nicely consolidate tho cheese and press out the small remaining por tions of whey. If placed in the press in the morniug, at night turn tho cheese. substitute a fresh strainer, the next day remove from the press, butter the sides, top and bottom, and plaee on an odorles board in a cool, airy place to cure. Fonr weeks for caring is neces sary, and during this time the cheese should be turned daily and buttered if inclined to oJhere to the board. As cheese is liable to expand, a band of strong cloth should be drawn and sewed tightly around it to obviate cracking. American Agriculturist. FARM AN'D GARDEN NOTRS. Every piece of ground put into ear ly vegetables should produce at least two crops a year. In France, chickens are not raised for the market; eggs andyonng fatted fowls aro the ends kept in view. See that tha hens have plenty ol sand or gravel. They have no teeth, aud must have gravel to grind the food in the gizzard. As the peas, radishes aud early po tatoes aro taken off, do not let the land lie idle and grow a crop of weeds. Set out cabbages, celery, or sow tur nips. In the precise meaning of the term. there is no poultry farming in Franoe. But there is "poultry keeping," and very generally followed by peasanti and small farmers. As hay is mado when the the snn shines, so is money increased to that dairyman who manages so that hii cows yield milk abundantly when dairy prices are high. Space, air, sun aud pure water ar essentials to success tin poultry rais ing.
