The Fence Club at a recent meet ing jiroposed, and it w is nureed to by the members, and nil renders of the Piik-js who own property on which they ivo, to occupy their spare time this winter in getting material ready to build what each one wt.nld call a model road to suit the lay of tho land, along the front age of their buildings or more if possible. A few days in spring will grade it properly and if this is car ried out all will be benefitted. Ciesar was equally unfortunate with Humbler in not finding his stocVincs full. We hope some Piikss readers fared better. The need of the country is to have well trained anil educated help in all departments of hibor. Milford has rooms where young men can go and improve their minds and mor als, ami girls too should have sume place where they might bo educated along lines which would fit them for good positions, such ns competent cooks or housekeepers. There is a dearth of such help and young la dies who are proficient could com mand excellent salaries. This is worth a trial and we hopo to see some effort made in that direction. We read of the success of cream erios but do we hear of (hose that are failures Some people down here were quite hilarious over tho remarks of Mr. Sell war, at the institute, that next lo clover, turnips made the best green manure but after examining the remnants of theerops eame to the conclusion that the lecturer was right.' There are tw. varieties of cow horn turnips and the species that runs down in the ground is the kind to plant for manure purposes. John Keid, of Brooklyn, was bore recently looking nfter a farm, but did not purchase because of the price asked. Send your name or a postal card to II. P.

The last bulle tin No. 54 gives the manurial value of the excreta of milch cows. Charles Martin has brought the E. Vandermark farm. It looks as if Met 7.
