    TIIRMI’S-riBI’M; TOPS.
From tho flrstof July to the first of Au
fust, turnips may be put in. I prefer the
'urple Tops. They may'succeed other
early crops,'-as onions, peas, green corn,
early potatoes, &c?. Superphosphate of
lime will be found an excellent substi
tute for barn manure in the cultivation
of most turpips, 'riot excepting even the
rutabaga. Inputting in this crop, the
sowing should immediately succeed the
harrowing, and be ■ completed while the
soil is moist and'jresft, to insure the ger
mination of ; the, seed. Drilling is prefer
able to broadcasting, as' it enables tho
operator to adopt a more thorough system
of after culture, and to keep tho soil In a
condition the most favorable to the rap
id and healthy development of the plants.
Any light, land will prove congenial.—
Bone dust is an excellent stimulant, and
posesses the advantage of being cheap as
well as efficient. These turnips consti
tute a moat excellent feed for cows and
young cattle, and when rasped and mixed
with chaffed hay,' halum, cornstalks dr
straw, enable, the feeder to effect a very
important saving in the expense of keep
ing them .through tho winter. Boiled
and mixed with corn or cob meal, they
also furnish a moat healthy and invigor
ating aliment forstore hogs. Sheep, like
wise, are very fond of them. When fed
to these animals they should be cut fine,
and fed with a little salt.
I have known excellent crops, of turn
ips raised among India corn, the seed be
ing sown after or just before the last dres
sing. The hoe will cover the seed
sufficiently deep, and as evenness of dis
semination.ls not of essential importance,
its action will supersede the necessity of
using the rake. Soaking the seed for
twenty-four hours before committing it to
the soil, in houselye or urin from the sta
bles, and rolling it in a mixture com
posed of equal parts of flour of brimstone,
plaster of Paris and pulverised charcoal,
will be found not only greatly to faciliate
the process of germination, but tend
powerfully,to protect the same from the
ravages of the fly, and other alligorous
depredators 1 which too often prey upon,
the plants. -An occasional dressing of the
pHmts after they are fully developed, with
the same mixture, Will be found highly
salutary, and secure a rapid and healthy
development. ‘Poudretteand guano have
also been used with excellent success in
the cultivation of the turnip, but on old
pasture land, recently broken up, no man
ure is necessary except a slight dressing
of gypsum or wood ashes. w. i>. n.
Plan For n Host Pen.
, 1 propose to give my plan for a house
to raise pigs in. I wished a place large
enough to raise twelve litters of pigs at
one time ; at least to have twelve sepa
rate pens. I wished to have an entry be
tween the pens so that 1 could feed both
sides. I therefore built my pen forty
eight feet long and twenty feet wide, con
structing it in the following manner,
(which of oourse could be varied accord
ing to the amount of money to be expen
ded.) I took a plow and scraper and
raised the ground in the middle so as to
slope off from the middle or entry part
where the proposed building was to bo
until ten- feet outside the pen. I then set
in a row ot posts ten feet high, and two
feet from, tue middle, the whole length
of the pen and the same number two feet
from the middle on the other side and
eight feet apart lengthwise of the build
ing. This left the entry way four feet
wide. I then set the two outside rows of
post eight-feet apart and five feet high.
I then spiked scantling on the top of each
row of posts, then taking common, sound
twelve foot boards, (the broader the bet
ter,) I nailed them ,on these scantling
leaving lower or outside end to extend
three inches outside the outside posts,
the upper or inside end extended over
two feet, above the high middle posts, the
ends almost touching, then by taking
and nailing a board on the top of the ends
of these, boards, lengthwise of the pen,
one on each side, they formed the comb
of the roof, then by taking half inch sid
ing, ripping it and using this for batting
the cracks, you have a pretty good roof
er if you have plenty of money, you can
leave off the patting, and cover with
shingles. I used the former. I then
boarded up each side the entry way three
feet high, making a trough and apron
between each post; the partitions be
tween each pen need not be over three
feet high. I then boarded up the outside
posts leaving a trap door for each pen. I
then put up a board fence eight feet out
side the pen and put in movable parti
tions across from the pen to this fence,
thus making a yard eight feet square for
each pen of the same size. I then boarcl
°d up the ends making a door at each end
of the entry and a window over the door.
By having a trap door in the fence
opening into the corner of the hay lot 1
can put in my sows before they pig with
out trouble and by removing this mova
ble partition between the yards can turn
out or in any one I wish.— Cor. Country
Gentleman.
Advice to Wool Growers. —lt may
not be out of place to give a word of ad
vice to farmers, now that the clip is so
near approaching, about the manner of
washing their sheep and doing up their
wool. They must understand„that there
is now in the eastern market a much
closer inspection of the wool that has
been for some time past; that half wash
ed and un tagged wool, with heavy strings,
will not sell for the same price as well
washed wool, but will be subject to a
discount in proportion to the amount
of dirt which they contain, and they
must bear in mind that dirty wool will
not command as ready a sale as clean
wool; and those localities which be
come notorious for heavy wool will
be avoided, and as this class of wool
is sold' in the eastern market so it
must be bought of the farmer. Some
are of the opinion that if the wool is not
washed at.all, the difficulty might be ob
viated; but they must bear in mind that
there are different degrees of cleanliness
m unwashed wool as well as washed
wool; some farmers would take care to
keep their wool clean, some would allow
it to accumulate all the dirt it could. The
best way for all is to put their wool upon
the market in the best manner possible:
then they will have a better market ana
comm,aud the best price. The tinergrades
of fleeces are in much better demand than
a few weeks ago; pulled wool is more
sought after, and good superior sells read
ily.— United States Economist.
Stock Raising.— Unusual attention is
being given to stock-growing in all the
States. Every consideration makes us
thankful for the fact. It is natural that
such should be the case, since the war
took from our flocks and herds of every
kind, excepting sheep, as though a mur
rain were, among , them. The former
stock was kept with profit. As there is
a large demand now us there was then
the same proportion could be profitably
preserved. And until the old supplies
are made good in all the States, the prof
its to’ breeders must be great.
In Cheshire, England, a great dairy
county, where the land has been under
drained and top dressed with, bones, one
acre of land will furnish grass enough
for a cow. Where It has not been drain
ed and top-dressed, two acres are needed
for gachcow. Once in seven years from
120Ctt0,1500 weight of bones is applied to
an aeve. To furnish a cow the year round
with fpodin the United States it will pro
bably require two and a half acres. This
statement did not say that the acre gives
the winter food.
Senator Fessenden is said to have
lost‘nearly all his property by the Port
land fire.

type-founder died in New York on Thurs
