Deora Yate Bellefonte, Pa., March, 10, 1893. Farm Notes. am— Green manurial crops make the cheapest foods for poor soils that re- quire a year or two for their restora tion to fertility, but as the land that is to be given over to the green manurial treatment should be virtually aban- doned for at least a year, so far as growing a crop for market 18 concern- ed, the sooner the land is seeded down the greater the opportunities for plow- ing under two or more crops. If rye was seeded down last (all, as was ad- vised in this column, it will give the farmer ap advantage in having a crop ready tobe plowed under as soon as plowing can be doae, for rye gets a start and makes considerable growth betore other crops appear. If the rye is turned under, the land should te immediately seeded down to something else, which in turn is to be plowed under later on. EARLY GREEN CROPS, The best manurial crop, early in the ear, is to sow oats and peas together, arrowed in, and the ground rolled. This is turned under as soon as the seed pods begin to form on the peas, a chain being used on the plow to throw down the vines to be covered with the furrow. The seed may be more expensive than for some other crops, but as the pea is a legume and a “nitrogen:collector,” it is the best of all quick-growing crops. Rapid growth is very desirable in green maourial crops. The point is to get a green crop in early, before the ground is warm, in order to save time, and oats and peas cannot be excelled for that purpose, the oats being used more to assist in hold- ing’up:the peavines than for their real value as green manure. LATER CROP2. Once the early cropis secured the later crops are easy. to select and grow. Anything may be said to answer, such as corn, sorghum, millet, Hungarian grass, buckwheat, and late 1n the sea- son rye may be seeded for the next spring’s plowing. Probably the best of all the summer crops is Hungarian grass, which grows so rapidly as to completely crush out the weeds, and the cost of seeding is but little. If the farmer can plow under three crops in one vear, such as peas, Hungarian grass and rye, he will add a large amount of food to the soil, clear the land ot weeds, and haye it in condition for clover. It means a loss of one year’s use of the land, but the increas- ed fertility of the soil will recompense for the expense and time. USE LIME ALSO. After plowing under each crop ap- ply lime, broad casted over the surface it only but five bushels per acre, but more will be better. It not only aids in quickly decomposing the green mat- ter turned under but assists in making the crops better while they are grow ing, by providing plant food. Ashes are better than lime, but as lime 18” 80 cheap and easily procured, its use is suggested in preference. No land is so poor but that it can be restored by lime and green manurial crops. A new fodder plant, known as “Ser- vadella,”’ is boing introduced from Ger- many. Itthrives well on poor, sandy soils, makes good pasture and hay, and is highly relished by cattle. It pro- duces two tons of hay in Germany, and is excellent as a green manurial crop. The plant grows to the height of three feet, and has numerous side shoots. It is sown in the spring, like clover, about 10 quarts of seed per acre being used. It can be mowed twice, and yet pro- vide late pasture. For sandy soils it is said to be excellent. The seed is sold by seedsmen, and should be tested on a small plot at first. Wheat 1s fed to swine in Europe, and it may pay to use wheat as food for swire in this country. Experiments made with the use of wheat by Pro fessor Robinson demonstrated that frozen wheat, which had been soaked 12 hours, gave an increase of 14 pounds live weight for each bushel of the wheat allowed. A pound ot the wheat was considered equal to over seven pounds of sk'm milk, and the quantity of ‘the pork ‘made from the wheat was pronounced excellent, Professor Plumb «ays th<t the cows in Indiana do not average 90 pounds of butter each in one year, and this also, no doubt, applies to other States. When it is considered that a few su- perior cows have produced over 1000 pounds of butter in one year, the loss to farme.s from keeping poor cows must be enormous. A resident of New Jersey, who bas only one acre of ground, buys 400 pounds’ of fertil’zer every year, at a cost of about $10. He uses wheel hoes does the work during extra times, and raises all kinds of vegetables and fruits for his family, the value of which, if he had to purchase them, being $200. A shovelfu! of fine tobacco powder, placed around each plant, and around the hills, has been found to be the best preventive of the attacks of the striped beetle on cucumber, melon and squash vines, Sow the seeds of tomatoes in hot- beds ‘or boxes. Early Ruby, Acme, Ignatum and Perfection are excellent varieties. Quite a large number of plants can be grown in a soap box. One of the best materials for protect. ing the tronks of trees against borers and other insects is ordinary wire mos- quito netting, which can easily be wrapped around the trunk. ‘Use plenty of seed for grass. One peck ot timothy seed per acre will give better results than to economize in that respect. | Methodist Church.

Never NecLecT A CoLp.—Dr. Aus- tin Flintsavs in the Forum: “It is probable that a person with an inherited tendency to c¢ nsumption would never develop the disease if he could be pro- tected against infection with the tubercle bacillus. In the light of modern dis- coveries consumption can no longer be regarded as an incurable disease.” It is no exaggeration to say that Kemp's Balsam, when taken in time, has saved many from consumption.
