Farm Notes.
Three essentials for successful wheat
growing are good drainage, good till-
age and good seed.
Turkeys will thrive better and make
a better growth if they can be given a
free range, at least till coid weather.
An open fire-place in the cellar, with
an occasional fire started therein, will
ventilate the cellar better than by any
other process.
One noted wheat grower says that for
wheat be wants the ground fine and
firm and that there is little or no dan-
‘ger of having the ground too firm.
Pears seldom ripen thoroughly on
the trees, Pick the pears off and place
them on a shelfin a dark location, and
they will be greatly improved in quali-
ty.
If the grass has taken possession of
the strawberry beds, hand work will be
necessary to clean therows. The work
will be laborious, but it must be done
if a crop is desired next season.
Field mice will never overrun a field
where owls exist in large numbers. The
principal food of owls is mice, and they
diligently hunt for them in the most fa-
vorable localities for procuring them.
Old strawberry beds are especially
subject to blight and all the other fruit
diseases. It pays to renew the beds of-
ten. But to lessen the danger from
blight, burn the beds over in the fall.
It is not necessary to use wet land in
order to have a pasture. It is true
that some grasses will thrive best on a
damp soil, but the most desirable grass-
es are grown onrich land that has been
well underdrained.
Corn is a grass—the most gigantic
and useful of the entire family. The
name Zea, from the Greek Zeia, grain,
is indicative of its nutritive quality,
while the specific name mays or mahiz,
a Haytian term, means bread or staft
of life.
- The selection of seed largely influen-
ces the yield of the crop for next season.
Corn may be made to produce four or
five ears on a stalk if the most prolific
stalks are used from which to secure
seed, as such an experiment has bzen
made with success.
Make an experiment in drainage by
tile, draining thoroughly the wettest
and heaviest acre ou the farm. Then
grow a crop of clover, follow it with
wheat, and cee if the increased yield
does not pay back a large interest on
the cost of drainage.
Changing the cows from one pasture
to another not only promotes the appe-
tite, and permits of a greater variety of
food, but also allows the grass on the
pastures to better withstand dry sea-
sons. It is a mistake to allow cattle to
graze a pasture too closely.
Twenty-two acres of land are needed
to sustain a man on fresh meat, while
the same amount of land under wheat
feeds 42 people, under oats 88 people,
under potatoes, Indian corn and rice
176 people, and under the plantain or
bread-fruit tree 6000 people.
It is an advantage to carry the stock
into the winter in a fat condition. An
animal will gain twice as much in
weight now ag in the winter, as it costs
more to support the body during cold
weather, a large proportion of the food
being converted into heat instead of in-
to fat.
There is still men that will stand ap
in convention and say that it makes no
difference how little butter-fat there is
in the milk from which cheese is made.
Yet that very cheese is gradually losing
its place in the market and “has be-
gun with shame to take the lowest
place”
A correspondent eay she never had
such nice celery as last year, when the
bleaching was done by wrapping the
plants loosely in paper, adding more as
they grew out of the top, and transferr-
ing them to the cellar late in the fall,
with the protection still on.— Practical
Farmer. ; ;
Browa rot or gray rot of the grape,
also sometimes known as downy mil
dew, is due to a fungus which thrives
in warm, wet weather. Spraying with
Bordeaux mixture or ammonia carbon-
ate is a sure cure. The vines should
be sprayed every fifteen days from the
1st of July till the fruit begins to turn
blue.
Cows are sometimes very dainty, and
will select only the best varieties of
grass in the pasture, which results in
the weeds and inferior kinds of grass
taking possession of the field, while
the best kinds will be destroyed by the
constant STOpping. It may be of ad-
vantage to change the cows to a new
pasture and turn in sheep to eat the
poorer grass and weeds for a while,
Those who contemplate raising early
lambs should lose no time in procur-
ing a pure bred ram of one of the mut-
ton breeds, It will not pay to attempt
to secure a profit on lambs unless the
male is of a breed that will improve
the flock.. There is such a great di’
ference in the growth of a grade lamb
and one that is a scrub as to be notice-
able at once. The well-bred lamb will
reach market atleast a month before
the other.
Is the grape rot disappearing? is a
question now being discussed. It is
possible that owing to the use of the
sprayer, the ravages of the rot are be-
ing lessened, but in some sections,
where spraying has not been practiced,
the rot was not severe lael year, and its
ravages not very great this season.
Many vineyards that havefailed in pre-
vious years have given gcod crops this
season, although their owners did not
use any precaution to avoid the disease,

It niay seem a little odd to imagine
America as exporting coal to England.
yet the probabilities are, as lately indi-
cated by President McLeod, of the Rea-
ding system in a statement. that there
is likely to be an early advent of a great
period of coal exportation. He points
out the magnitude of American resources
and the ability of science to indicate the
approximate duration of their working,
and calls special attention to the fact
that there is now no question ‘more
seriously considered by English states-
men than the effect upon the empire of
the ultimate exhaustion of the coal sup-
plies of the United Kingdom.”
The upper veins in England are being
exhausted and deep mining is becoming
more dangerous every year and attended
with rapidly-increasing expences. Eng-
land will not long be abie to keep up
her annual output of 30,000,000 tons,
and when she begins to restrict. the
American coal must take its place. As
bearing on this subject the Black Dia.
mond gives some interesting facts. So
far as anthricite is concerned, the condi-
tions existent even now are peculiarly
adapted to the importation of that arti-
cle. The great majority of British resi-
dences of the better class are surrounded

phurous smoke belched from chimneys
owing to the consumption of soft coal.
In London especially the prevalence of
fogs is attributed the major portion of
the time to the existence of this factor
in the heavy, humid atmosphere, Now
it may be fairly argued, and argued in
England with considerable success, that
the use of anthricite would not only
mitigate, but almost obviate this great
feature of metropolitan life. The ques-
tion of paying a dollar or two more a
ton for the attainment of this purpose
would play no figure with these whose
interest rendered the consumption of
this fuel both necessary and advisable.
American soft coal and coke has as great
an interest and equally bright a future
in the building up of an export trade.
British soft coal is of a grade far inferior
to that of the home product and would
experience little trouble in supplanting
the British commodity in markets where
it now has undisturbed monopoly. This
is already transpiring in certain parts of
the West Indies where the Alabama
product is makirg rapid headway. With
the increased difficulties and attendant
expenses of British mining will come
a decrease in the ability of the British
product to hold its own in the compe- | #
tition, and with the loss in profits will
come the loss of incentive for export and
the consequent control ty American
merchants of markets where a vast
quantity of coal is now consumed.—

A Notable Invention.
A problem which has been puzzling
mechinical engineers all over the world
ever since steam as a motive power came
into general use has at last been solved,
it appears, British papers state that an
engineer living in Glasgow has lately
completed, after nineteen years’ experi-
menting, a device for steam engines by
which all steam is returned back to the
boiler after doing its work in the cylin-
ders, In several cases, it is said, he has
installed his engine and itis at work
with extraordinary results, In one case,
in a textile factory, the engine with his
device is doing as much work with one
ton of coal as it formerly did with ten
tons. The problem of how to wake use
of the vast amount of steam every where
blown off into the air after doing certain
work has long occupied engineers, and’
its thorough solution would be worth
many willions of dollars in many ways.
