ItuuHlNQ the horse morning and noon with a handful of smartweed will prevent the flies from troubling him during the day. THREE Cotswold ewes belonging to Sam Byars, living on the Dutch llidge pike, gave birth to ten lambs* Two of them gave birth to three each and one to four. Who can beat this in the sheep business ?— Augusta {Kg ) Bulletin. IN Spain it is the custom of every one who eats a fruit to dig a little hole and plant the seed, and the roads in that country are lined with trees, the fruits of which are free to all. Some one says : "The man has not lived in vain who plants a good tree in the right place." A RICH lumberman in northern Michigan has salted a small lake and planted it with oysters. Salt costs very little at Saginaw, and as the lake has no outlet it is easy to keep the water salt. He expects to raise as fine oysters as can be found on any of the bays of the coa9t. THOSE who place high value on improved stock should keep in view the fact that the use of inferior stock of anj' breed will not give satisfac tion. In order to improve the animal must be vigorous, of good form, and up to the standard of purity. Breed ers wrong their customers and injure their reputation in allowing any but good stock to go from their stock farms. SINCE it is claimed that an acre of fish-pond will produce more food than five acres ot ground, why should not farmers raise their own fish as systematically as they do hogs or cattle? And why should they not turn their attention to fish culture as a regular industry and to reeof prof it, especially thos: who have the ad vantage of good markets ? There, are few farms that, with a little labor and expense, could not get water to supply a fish pond. Overworked Farmors At this season of the year when the cultivation and harvesting of (arm crops claim the constant atten tion of farmers, and when excessive heat makes hard work so depressing, there is danger from overwork with the ambitions farmer, who has his entire mind on the safety of his crops. Probably one-half of tlic farm ers of our country work too bard for the good of their health, and very often it is entirely unnecessary. Farmers who have a number of work men tinder their supervision can usually accomplish as much by their minds as by their hands, and with less fatigue. There is much in the management of farm laborers, and to direct one's hands so as to accomplish the greatest amount of work in the least time is one of the secrets of suc cessful farming. The farmer who toils incessantly through the day in the hot sun, or perhaps in the rain, besides doing chores morning and night, finds little pleasure in life. And he Tealizes less, too, from his labor than he expects. A more suc cessful farmer will hire his bard work done, and keep himself fresh and vigorous, and bis hands encouraged by performing less work himself and directing and showing others. In every large business where laborers are hired, a person is needed whose chief business it is to plan, lay out and direct work, and it holds true as much on a farm as in s machine shop, carriage manufactory or store. A great fault with farmers is, that they have too little system about their business. More thought and less hard labor will do wonders on Borne farms, and the owners would reap the reward in greater froodom and more happiness. Tar the Noses of Sheep. Practical Farmer. The mouths of July and August are the ones when sheep in many lo calities are subject to a most aggra vating annoyance from fly (oestrus bovis) which seems bound to deposit its larvie in the nostrils. It infects wooded distiicts and shady places where the sheep resort for shelter, and by its ceaseless attempts to enter the nose makes the poor creature almost frantic. If but one fly is in a flock they all become agitated and alarmed. They will assemble in groups, holding their heads close to gether and their noses to the ground. As they hear the buzzing of the lit tle pest going from one to another, they will crowd their muzzles into the loose dirt, made by their stamp ing, to protect themselves, and as the pest succeeds in entering the nose oi a victim, it will start on a run, fola lowed by the whole flock, to find a retreat from its enemy, throwing its head from side to side, as if in the greatest agony, while the oestrus, having gained his lodging- place, as siduously deposits his larvie in the inner margin of the nose. Here, aided by warmth and moisture, the eggs quickly hatch into a small mag got, which carrying out its instincts, begins to crawl up into the nose through a crooked opening in the bone. The annoyance is fearful, and maddening, as it works its way up into the head and cavities. The best known remedy is tar, in which is mixed a small amount of crude carbolic acid. If the scent of the acid does not keep the fly away he gets entangled in the tar, which is kept soft by the heat of the animal. Any kind of tar or turpentive is use ful for this purpose, and greatly pro motes the comfort of the sheep and prevents the ravages of the bot in the head. Canning Tomatoeß. Donahoe'* Magazine. Many people who are quite suc cessful in canning fruits generally, are apt to fail with the tomato. A lady says: "We have ten acres of fruit of all kinds and I take a great deal of pride in canning fruit. I get nearly all the prizes at the fairs. I wish you could just peep into my cellar to see my tomatoes and peach es, some canned last fall, and some a year ago, not mentioning my other fruit. I will tell you how 1 canned my tomatoes —both red and yellow the tomatoes—the smoothest best shaped—and scald them and skin very carefully; take the stem out with a pen knife, taking care not to cut the tomato so as to let the juice or seed run out; then I place them in the cans, some of them with the stem end next to the can, and some with the blossom ends ; then I fake the juice that has run out of some that I have peeled to cook, hav ing no seed nor pulp, and add a little salt and pour on my whole tomatoes until nearly full; then place them in a kettle of cold water, and let them cook till I think they are heated through ; then I seal thein. I use nothing but glass jars—two quart jars—and after the cover has been on about five minutes, I take it otf, so they will settle, letting the gas out; then I fill up with juice and seal again, and my cans are always full to the cover. A great many have not learned this. You have no idea how nice they look through glass; they show every vein and rib, and look as if they were put up raw, and when used they are just as if they had just been taken from the vines—and if you don't believe me, try it this sum mer. I always keep my fruit in the dark, and it don't fade through the glass. 1. THE best soil for wheat is rich clay loam. 2. Wheat likes a good, deep bed. 3. Clover turned under makes just such a bed. 4. The best seed is oily, heavy, plum and clean. 5. About two inches is the best depth for sowing the seed. 6. The drill puts in the seed better and cheaper than broadcasting. t. From the middle of September to the last of October is the best time for sowing. 8. Drilled, one bushel of seed per acre; if sown broadcast, two bushels per acre. 9. One heavy rolling after sowing does much good, 10. For flour, cut when the grain begins to harden; for seed, not until it nas hardened. Save the Hay. Corn will be scarce and high next Winter. That will send up the price of pork and beef to high figures. The only way to take the proper ad vantage of that condition of things is to save all the hay possible, to help make up the deficiency. Scarcity of corn will make high prices lor all kinds of feeding stuffs, including hay. Therefore, whether or not one has a home demand for hay, for feeding, he should cut all the grass that Nature gives him this year. It is too often the case with Western farmers that they save only the cream of the grass crop, leaving that which is more scant, to fall down and go to waste. Every farmer this year should cut clean the thick and thin grass alike* cure it as well as the season will al low and store in stack or barn for Winter use or sale. Saving the pro ducts usually wasted, means the dif ference between large and small prof its. The Value of Clover. Prof. Voelcker is one of the strongest advocates for clover in a farm rotation, and gives these as his conclusions upon its value and gen eral character: 1. A good crop of clover removes from the soil more potash, phosphoric acid, lime, and other mineral matters, which enter into the composition of the ashes of our cultivated crops, than any other crop usually grown in this country. 2. There is fully three times as much nitrogen in a crop of clover as in the average product of the grain and straw of wheat per acre. 2. Clover is an excellent prepara tory crop for wheat. 4. During the growth of clover, a large amount of nitrogenous matter accumulates in the soil. 5. This accumulation, which is greatest in the surface soil, is due to decaying leaves dropped during the growth of clover, and to an abund ance of roots containing, when dry I from 13 to 2 per cent, of nitrogen. 6. The clover roots are stronger j and more numerous, and more leaves fall on the ground, when clover is ; grown for seed, than when it is | mown for hay ; in consequence more nitrogen is left after clover seed than ; after hay. 7. This crop causes a large accu- I mulalion of nitrogenous matters which are gradually changed in the j soil to nitrates. 8. (.'lover not only provides abund ance of nitrogenous food, but deliv ers this food in a readily available form, as nitrates, more gradually and continuously, and with more certainty of good result, than such foot! can be ; applied to the land in the shape of j nitrogenous spring top dressings. IT goes without saying that oats is grown as feed for stock. Has it been demonstrated that the usual adopted mode produces the best results ? If not, is it not worth inquiring into, by means of some carefully conducted experiment? Wc incline to think, judging from a limited experience in the matter upon our own farm, that oats cut before ripening, say when the grain is "in the milk," and treated and fed on hay, will furnish more and better feed than when allowed to ripen, threshed, and fed in the usual way. If this be true, the gain would be considerable, if the saving in labor should be added to the increase of the feed. Is not the experiment worth trying ? Where "cut feed'' is used for the teams, as is often the case on farms —and always should be a profitable modification of this plan may be made by cutting the oats while at the same stage of ripening binding it in sheaves, as dsual, and using it in place of the time-honored rye-straw. Very much less than the customary amount of "chop feed" will answer, and the very unpleasant labor of threshing the oats will have been saved. BAKED eggs are sometimes relished by those wt > find fried ones greasy and indigestible. Butter a deep earthen pie-plate then put in the eggs, taking care not to, break the yolks of any; put a little lump of butter on each egg, and a little pepper and salt ( too.. If the oven is hot, the eggs will be cooked sufficiently in four minutes. As Boon as the whites are firmly set they are done.
