FLY EN THE WHEAT.
It is a very common thing for farmers
to regard fly in the Wheat as an unavoid
able misfortune; and having once accept
ed this !ilea as a flied fact, take no fur
ther thought to prevent its ravages. In
this view, however, I do- not concur, but
um disposed to believe there is a cause
that may be avoided.
The fly, in my opinion, springs - with
out a doubt from the maggot generated
in the manure heap, or after having
been hauled out upon the field. To
prove this,
,perniit a thin layer of manure
to lie in an.old stable for sonic time 4u
ring summer; and upon turning it over
you will discover Myriads of maggots
beneath. These maggots are in due sea
son metamorphosed into the fly that af
fects the wheat. If the manure had, not
been 'disturbed, in a short time a swami
of very small white flies, or gnats, would
have Sleen seen swarming over the spot
where the manure lay.
These flies resort to the wheat-fields
iu ;attain'', and having deposited their
eggs lu the tender sprouts,• or the grain
of seed wheat, by June following, , the
summer heats have again developed a
nest of maggots that eat their way out of
the stalks, generally within a few inches
of the ground, and having undergone
another metamorphosis, Ikeomes
from -whence the maggot in the manure
originated, thus re-producing itself from
'year to year.
tin order to prevent fly in ,the 'wheat, I
would recommend that the 111.1111/10 be
hauled out upon the grodnd for spring
crops before any eggs have beer' depos
ited in it, or in rase there have been,
iwhieh is not probable,) by ploughing it
under deep, heat and air will have no
effect in developing their maturity. In
no cage •wotild I recommend manure to
be spread upon the surface of ground
that has been ploughed fur wheat, as is
very common among some farmers. My
investigations g'o to prove - that in wheat
thus seeded the fly is always worse.
}tally or late seeding will notyield any
protection, as I have frequently seen
both equally - affected the same year, and
us the maggot is generally developed
while the manure lies exposed upon the
fields, there is no reason to expect any
difference; and the only protection
against fly in the Wheat, in my opinion,
lies in ploughing the manure under in
the spring of the year.
QIN AIMS FOB °USES.
Many think thathormes that are kept
in a stable all summer should nut be al
lowed to eat grass. They think that It
will make the %horse soft and wishy
washy, and that it will throw him out
of condition for hard work. This is
partleulary the case with some of the
trainers of trotting and running horses.
.And horses that are kept for farm and
other work are refused grass he
dense Alma drivers think they will not
eat hay so well. This was formerly the
case, more than It Ia now. But these
are all erroneous opinions and practices,
and are giving way, gradually, to a more
reasonahle and natural system of feeding.
Grass is 4 the natural fcod of the horse.
It :is cooling and healthful food. It
keeps the bowels open and shapens the
appetites It promotes digestion and re
moves fever from the system. Therefore,
by all theans, let the horses nip grass

er training for trottin,, , r or running, it
will be attended - with the highest
benefit. 'The horse Will lose none of his
speed by and a course of treatment.—
Horses that are kept up the year round.
for fermi work Should certainly be al
lowed a nice nibble at grass every day.
They work hard, and all they get for it
is something to eat. Let them have,
then, what they all like so well.— Valley

"Morning and night, sir."

"Yes indeed I do," replied Erin.
"And a shnrp pain through the tem

You see the old man was trying to

that tore up the young corn, and such
things, so that I could be of some use
about the farm, becau s e I wasn't big
enough to do much. My gun was a lit
tle single-barrel, shot gun, and the old
man tarried an old Queen Anne's mus
ket that weighed a ton, and made a re
port like a thunder-clap, and kicked
like a uncle. The old man wanted me
to shoot the old musket some times, but
I was afraid. One day, though, I got
her down and so I took her to the hired
