I hat s right gentlemen Keep the screws tightened down 01 the farmer at every possible point. SPKAKIMI of the present dullness and uncertainty in the tobacco leaf j trade, on account of the tardy action ot Congress regarding the turiir, the I'onnrrticut Fnrmtr gives a line or twoof excellent advice : "Ion't pise-- J your w hole dependence upon a single s|>eculativc crop. It is an excellent time to figure out what eh- you can raise to the Lest advantage." SKNA T OK 11 A vis, of West \ irginin, is one of the few men in the National Legislative body who take an active interest in furthering the agricultural interests of the country. A couple of wrecks ago he tnadc a sjicecb in the Senate in advocacy of the bill to en large the powers and duties of the (b'pnrtmcnt of agriculture which bristled with interesting statistics, ami tables. Among others was one showing that in the total farm products of the country amounted to ulsiiit $.1,500,000,00(1. a sum greater, as everyone knows, than our entire national indebtedness. Another show ed thnt the value of the three leading crops, corn, cotton and ha\,for the tame year was over $ 1,100,00(1,000. Still others show that over So | K - r c> nt. of the value of the total ) *• ports is furnished hi the agriculture of the country, and that the average duty paid upon articles used most largely by the farmer is near to cent. In addition to these tabh <• Mr. limit gave the following figures which c,m not fail to bo of inter. *t to even farmer: "Russia is our great rival in agri cultural products, ami she cx|n<ls more money, as I hare before said, in a single year than the I'nited Slates docs in ten. Let me state some of the amounts expend.d by European governments in aid of ng ricultnre. Russia spends annually $5,012,350; Prussia, $ 1,054,*75 ; A us" tna. $5,006.7H7 ; France, $7,271,375; Italy, $1,589,900 ; and the l*nilcd States for the last ten ycurs has ex ponder! $2,717,49 i', and lor the past year, ISB2, s3fiO,2'<o. Tlic-se figures show clearly that any one of the leading powers of Europe expends more annually for the carc of agri culture than we have in the last ten years. I have seen tt stated and I think it true, thnt out of the three hundred and sixty-nine member* of the two Houses of Congress there are but sixteen farmers to two hundred and fifty-two lawyers—fifteen or sixteen to one. In the Hrilish Parliament there arc one hundred and eight lnw ycrs and three hundred at.d sixty three farmers. This shows that we have sixteen farmers in the two Houses of Congress to represent 2fi,- 000,000 agriculturists and (heat Britain has, if my table is true, as I tbink it is, three hundred and sixty three farmers to represent 12,000,000 agriculturists." EVF.RV crop that the farmer from bis land is so much rived from ths joint expenditure of his labor and capital. To keep bis capital from continually decreasing, he must return to it as much ss he has token away, and to do this he must apply manure to his farm.— John M. Stahl. StoumlnK Fodder. I'wi'tilnr Hr)riii Mi.nlhl/. Taking the word "fodder" in the broadest sense, as any kind of food lor graminivorous animals, we may say that it will always pay to steam or cook feed for swine, and often for cows in stables containing twenty live head or more, while for sheep and horses it will be of doubtful ex pediency, and usually not advisable under any circumstances. The cook ing oT feed for fattening swine is so important as a matter of economy that it will pay, even though done with little regard to the saving of labor and fuel. On the other hand, to cook the Iced for meat cattle with profit, not only should there be ani mulh enough to make it pay but the ration- should be so carefully plan* ned that by mingling of palatable with less relished and coarse fodder a saving may IK* effected in that way. Besides, the object for which the cat tle are kept is an important factor to •H- considered in the feeding. The llowr of milk is increased by steaming the fodder; the color of the butter is, however, injured. The same ra • ion will prove more fattening, while, it the same time, there will be little n no waste if the steaming is well managed. It is best to have the steamed ration composed of a variety of feed, such as cornfodder, roots, nay or oats straw, with bran and corn meal, or cotton seed, or linseed oil cake or meal. The substitution of or.r kind of fodder or local for an. other gives variety and relish. 'I be coarse fodder is cooked soft, and the llsvor of the roots and of the meal pervades the mass.

I.ltf ftiotk Juhrail, The tempering of cream in one of the most important operations in butter making. This is especially true in cobJ weather. The different parts of cream are affected different* ly by heat. A can of cream may be placed in a kettle of hot water and heated till the thermometer indicates C>2 to r.r, degrees without having heated the butter globules in the cream at all. This w ill not ordinari ly be the case, it is true, but it is liable to be, and it is approximately so in all cases where the heating is rapid. ( ream should he kept warm for several hours before churning that it rimy become warmed through, "r, i 1 it is necessary to temper it hastily, it should be raised consider ably above the churning temperature and suffered to fall back, which it will do in a short time.
