SN FARM NOTES, FALL PLOWING, — Except the lighest sandy soils, all level land will be bene- fited by fall plowing, When well plowed, and to a proper depth, the plowed ground will not wash even by the heavy southern winter rains, That the land will leach ana lose its fertility is a mistake, Nothing will be lost in any case except the nitrogen, which ex- ists in the form of nitric acid or the most soluble nitric salts, and, as a rule, there is no danger of this because of the almost entire absence of this form of nitrogen in the land, On the con- tary, it is for the purpose of developing this scarce plant-food mn the soil that fall plowing is desirable, The turning over of the soil alas in the change of the abundant inert nitrogen, which is mostly combined with the carbonaceous organie matter in the soil, nto soluble nitrates, and this process goes on slow- ly during the fall and early spring, and where the ground is not frozen even during the winter. Consequently the land 18 brought into a more fertile con- dition by the fall plowing, and besides this gain, there is another of much importance, viz.: the spring work 18 forwarded so much, and ihe crops may be put in so much earlier, TREATMENT OF CELERY,—Celery, whether self-blanching or otherwise, can be grown with much or little labor, but like other vegetables, the more sare that is given, the better will be the result, There is a certain crispness and delicacy of flavor which can only be imparted by banking generously with earth, Previous to banking some attention is necessary. Buy a few pounds of straw paper, cut the sheets into ten-inch strips, and wrap each: plant in a paper jacket, then hill up almost to the top of the papers. After a little practice, this c«n be done as expeditiously as ibe ordinary tying up. This wrapiing should be done when the plants are perhaps a foot high, keeping the loose end of the paper m place with a handful of earth, thrown on with a garden trowel, until the row is finished. Care should always be taken in hilling up to give a broad base to the hill, as the soil will need to be drawn up higher, later on, if the plants have grown far enough above the paper to make it necessary. Per. go ns raising celery on a large scale, for ordinary market purposes, would hard- ly care to take this trouble, but if only a few hundred for family use are grown this plan cannot be too highly recom- mended, There are two advantages gained by this process: 1 There are no crooked stalks, as is often the case when the plants are tied up. 2. It prevents earth-worms from nibbling the stalks, which they are sure to do in season. a club grain IROWS, picked up the hens. slaughtered a dozen at all.

THE Fecolch creepers are a legged breed of fowls, compact, in breast meat, cannotfly high, lay well and mature early. There are two varieties, the white and the barred, They are nearly as large as the Ply- mouth Rock, FARMERS AND FAILURES. —Pin up two facts to be considered when vou are discouraged: There are fewer business failures among farmers than among any other class; more men begin without capital and become owners of good business in farming than in any other vocation, Tie Dorset sheep are very prolific. They were shown at several fall fairs last year, the ewes having lambs at their feet, and nearly all had twins, They aiso produce lambs in the spring. DiaGinG post-holes, repairs and haul- ing gravel should be done before the ground freezes, It entails twice the labor to defer such work until ater. Now is the time to make all re- pairs, A HousTEIN heifer was exhibited at the Bangor (Me.) Fair that yielded about fifteen quarts of milk daily, Con- sidering that she was only 2 years old the yield was extraordinary, Pires of brush or stubble afford harboring places for the insects, and they can be better destroyed by burn- ing such marerial early than to declay it unt'1 the ground is frozen, sn Wnexs a limbis cut from a tree it should be as close to the body as possi ble.
