Farm Notes.
Manure the grape vine. Do it in
the fall. It will serve as a mulch in
addition to acting as a fertilizer.
Do you grow pumpkins? Didgyon
ever feed them to the young sheep?
Try it. The seeds will not hurt them.
A well-trained shepherd dog is a
good piece of property. An untrained
one is of no value about sheep or cat-
tle.
The frosts injure the value of grass,
and if you keep your sheep upon it,
without otler feed, down goes their
condition.
Have you got the shelter ready for
the flock? Do notneglectit. A sheep
with a fleece wet through by a winter's
storm is a monument to the flockmas-
tes’s neglect.
Liet there be no set-back in the
growth of any of the young animals.
But there will be if you are not careful
along about now. A standstill in
growth is just so much lost.
Preserve the straw. To say the very
least of it it makes a very desirable
change of diet. Mr. Wade, the noted
Dakota Holstein breeder, feeds straw
and bran almost wholly.
Small farmers and villagers may pro
duce one-half of their meat supply in
the poultry-yard if they will give the
subject proper attention. It is worth
while to make the attempt.
If a few guinea fowls can be induced
to roost in or near the poultry-house
they will afford protection against
chicken thieves. They are light sleep-
ers, and make a tremendous racket
when disturbed at night.
The Jersey Bulletin concludes that a
Jersey cow which does not make a
pound of butter from fess than twenty
pounds of milk is not a fair representa
tive of the breed, provided she is pro-
perly fed and cared for.
“Breed to get the most out of your
feed" says Farm Stock and Home, “and
feed to get the most out of vour breed.”
This is a good rule for the dairyman
to be governed by. and he cannot
achieve much of a success without fol-
lowing it.
Professor Atkinson, of South Caroli-
na, finds that the only trustworthy
remedy for the peach-tree borer seems
to be to hunt for the larvie late in au-
tumn and in eaxly spring, and kill with
a knife. Many other methods give
only temporary relief.
New corn that is quite immature is
wholesome and excellent for fatiening
poultry. The notion that it produces
bowel diseas s or cholera is only a no-
tion ; moldy, green corn is no doubt
unwholesome ; we were speaking of
sound, new corn.
A correspondent of the New York
Tribune says: ‘Each added year's ex-
perience convinces us further of the
superiority of horizontal training for
vines; and we are gradually substitu-
ting flat trelises for erect ones, and pre-
fer them of good height, 7 feet or
over.”
In drying off a cow be sure that she
does dry off, and that milk does not
condense into a hard mass 1n the ud-
der to obstruct and inflame it and play
the mischief when the cow next comes
in milk. More trouble with the udder
comes from neglect in drying oft the
cow than from any other source.
The American Sheep Breeder states
that “if a few dry cows or heifers are
kept in the field with sheep the dogs
will seldom molest them. We have
found sheep in the morning huddled so
close around and under a friendly old
cow that she could not get away from
them. She hadsaved their lives.”
The time is approaching when the
festive rabbit will be after the tender
trees. To head him off, smear the
trees with a wash made as follows:
Quarter bushel of lime, one-half pound
of copperas and one-half pound of glue;
add the glue and copperas dissolved to
the lime after slaking, and apply now
with a brush.
As turkeys will be in demand from
now until January they should be fed
well, so as to make them as fat as pos-
sible. An extra pound will pay freight
and expenses of selling, as well as add
to the price. Only choice turkeys bring
the highest prices in market.
Waldo F. Brown says: There are
thousands of acres sown in wheat each
fall that would require but a glance
of an intelligent man to know that on
them a crop of wheat could not be
grown that would pay expenses—old
washel clay hillsides, flat wet land, or
it may be land that has been plowed
late and the seed put in with a badly
prepared seed bed.
A reader of Home and Farm has
cured cows suffering with apple ir the
throat in the following simple way,
and any one can do it: Simply press
the fists below the obstruction. They
must be pressed together persistently
to overcome the muscles which the
animal exerts in swallowing. When
the apple is starred work it upward in-
to the month.
The “why” for not disturbing milk
while the cream is rising is a very
simple one. The cooling of the milk
causes currents in the fluid, the end
of which is to deposit fats at the sur
face. When these are disturbed, by dip-
ing or otherwise, these currents are
0 and the particles of fat go
+ floating aimlessly about, and some of
* them never reach the top.
Is it well to fet cows have all the wa-
: ter they will drink under all circum:
stances ? Professor Sanborn foun that
by reducing the amount of water drank
by the cow standing in the stable here:
- duced the flow of milk but improved
its quality. Is it not likely that cows
that have had water only once or twice
a day get very thirsty at times aud
- drink to excess when they get at the
HY
out traveling far, in all probability
they would drink less and do better.
General Longsteet’s Affliction.

us that yesterday he passed Gen. Long-
street and bowed, ard that Robert E.
Lee's “old war horse’ returned the sa-

“War Papers,” the Lincoln History and George
Kennan’s series on “Siberia and the exile Sys-
tem”) will publish the long looked for Autobio-
graphy of Joseph Jefferson, whose “Rip van
Winkle” has made his name a
word. No more interesting record of a life
Mr Jefferson is the fourth in a generation of
actors, and, with his children and grandehil-
dren, there are six generations of actors
among the Jeffersons,
traveling in his father’s company, they would
settle down for a season in a Western town,
playing in their own extemporized theatre,—
the particulars of the creation of his famous
“Rip van Winkle,” how he acted “Ticket-of-
Leave Man” before an audience of that class in
Australia, ete.,—all this, enriched with illustra-
tions and portraits of contemporary actors and
actresses, and with anecdotes, will form one of
the most delightful serials The Century has
ever printed.
Amelia E. Barr, Frank R. Stockton, Mark
Twain, H. H. Boyesen, and many other well-
known writers will furnish the fiction for the
new volume, which is to be unusually strong,
including several novels, iliustrated nevelet-
tes, short stories. “The Women of the French
Salons” are to be described in a brilliant series
of illustrated papers. The important discover-
ies made with the great Lick Telescope at
San Francisco (the largest telescope in the
world) and the iatest explorations relating to
prehistoric America (including the famous Ser-
pent Mound, of Ohio) are to be chronicled in
The Cenlury.
Prof. George P. Fisher of Yale University is
to write a series on “The Nature and Method
of Revelation,” which will attract every Bible
stuaent. Bishop Potter of New York will be
one of several prominent writers who are to
contribute a series of “Present day-Papers” on
living topics. There will be art papers, timely
articles, ete, and the choicest pictures that

NEW BOOK FOR BOYS,
EXCITING AS MUNCHAUSEN.
HAIRBREADTH ESCAPES
OF MAJOR MENDAX.
“When he was within twenty yards I stooped
down, and grasping Gumbo by the ankles from
behind, lifteu his legs from under him, making
him fall forward on Fo hands. Iran him right
at the lion, wheel barrow fashion, the bewild-
erec nigger instinctively putting one hand be-
fore the other before he knew what he was
about. This brought us within a spring of the
lion. I hurled his legs forward over his head
with such force that when they struck the
ground his body rose and he described a con-
vulsive somersault. This carried him two
lengths ahead of me—into the very jaws of the
lion, if the latter had stayed.”

ters, startling adventures and daring exploits
