Farm Notes.
There are about 200,000 pure bred
cattle In tho United States, against 40.800.-
000, "scrubs."
Now places for cooping tho hens should
bo selected cyery y sar. Tho stock alwajs
do better on new ground, being less liable
to diseases.
The reason that thcro aro so many
mortgages on farms Is becauso so many
farmers sell corn, oats and hay early, nnd
then havo to buy the same class of articles
before tbe next crop Is raised.
A s stem of farming which does not
provide In an economical way for a return,
in an availablo form, of the soil constituents
carried off by the crop raised, can not othei-
wise but prove ultimately a financial fail
ure.
Corn endures drouth as well as any
crop grown, but only when the field Is kept
clean. A thorough cultivation of tho field
after a shower Is better than a coating of
manure, Is at protects the roots and affords
a great supply of moisture. Tho work Is
easily done under the check-row sjstcm..
In transplanting trees all the roots
which may haye become bruised or broken
In tho process of lifting should be cut clean
away behind tho broken part, as thoy then
more readily strike out new roots from the
cut parts. In all such cases the cut should
bo a clean, sloping one, and made In an
upward direction.
A very large part of tho crops grown
upon the farm In the shape of grain should
be turned Into meats and butter and
cheese before It Is sold. In this way the
land Is kept In fertility and the product Is
very much more valuable and concentrated.
The farmer who raises crops through the
summer and feeds them through tho win
ter has double profits.
Ono who claims to know whereof he
affirms, states that when skim milk and
butter milk are fed to pigs they aro worth
one-fourth as much as corn meal. Fed to
calves they are worth on an average twenty
Qyo cents per 100. For feeding, warm to
03 dcg., feed three times a day, and feed
sweet. As tho calf grows add oatmeal
gruel, and finally clear oatmeal. Tho skim
milk of one good cow and two dollars'
worth of oatmeal will raise two calves
through tho season spring to fall.
Tho cxperlcnco of tho closest students
In dairying Is that Jess corn meal and more
comfort In In the way of clean, warm
stables, to promote animal heat, and more
bran, oats, etc., aro the cheapest and best
cow rations. If wo expect the cow to play
the doublo part of cow and steer stuff' the
corn-meal Into her, the more the better,
and cet her to the block as quick as possible,
In older to sell tho butter and beef at the
same time; but If sho Is expected to be a
dairy cow treat her like tho cow and
mother; feed llko a mother, and on tbe
foods that mothers require, not a bullock's
ration, and wo may In time become dairy
men and get dairymen's profits.
A lack of pasturage must be supplied
In the form of some other kind of food,
If tho number of cattle bo - few and the
pasture field large, with abundant growth,
but little grain will be required for growing
stock, though milch cows should be fed all
they will eat. IHiero tho cattle aro com
pelled to forago over tho pasture a mess of
grain will bo required at night in order to
keep them in proper condition and Increase
their growth.
Tho practice of giving a final cnltlva
tlon to corn and then allowng the crops to
remain until matured, whether the field be
covered with grass or not, has Injured
many promising crops. A field of corn
should be cultivated as often as may be
necessary without regard to Its stage of
crowth. It should bo kept clean and the
soil always In a looses condition, and the
crop will thereby be larger and the plants
better enabled to endure drought
The experiment of Dr. Voelcker, of
the Itoyal Society ot England, prove- that
manure gradually depreciates by keeping,
even under tbe very best management. It
gains In water and loses invaluable organic
matter which Is spent in the fermantatlon.
It stands to reason, If this be true, that
the old fashioned method of turning and
working oyer manure for six months be;
fore using Is wasteful and to be avoided.
A great many more men can succeed
on small than on large farms. In this
lattci case It may bn almost said there Is
no real success, the money apparently
made being generally less than fair Inter
est on the capital Invested, This Is proved
by tho fact that those who try to farm on a
large scale on borrowed capital are nearly
sure to fail. Meq who try to farm moder
ately are equally sure of a moderato though
substantial success.
This li the season for hatching out
bantams, as late hatchlnc assists In dwarf
ing them. The most valuable bantams
are those that aro very small. They are
profitable, as they lay large eggs In propor
tion to tbctr size, occupy but little space,
and give as good results In comparison with
cost as the larger kinds.
Tbe cell.it windows should be large,
so as to permit of ventilation. There
should be two windows, if possible. The
cellar for the storage of root crops should
bo cool and dry, avoiding dampness.
