Itoads and Ho ul Making.
l'.ihaps there is no one thing '
in which farming communities ne
glect their public colha tiv. dlltasßt ,
so great cost to tin ir private, in i - •
i.dual inter sts j, in the matter of I
roads and road-making. Tin-districts j
in which the great value and impor
tance ol ■ . road* is fully appo . ,
at- I arc few and far between ; ai d 1
tho-e in which intelligent, concert '..
and sustained efforts : r- ua.,.c to se
cure thcadv.v '... • o Le derived from
I'r.t cijs* highways, are fewer still. (
' Kvcrywkcrc churches and school ,
houses are appreciated an 1 demanded,
built and pai 1 for, and that is as it
should I- Hut wc do not put liie |
; eao nny too strongly when we say (
that these christianizing and en- ,
lightening agencies arc largely shorn ,
of Un ir power and curtailed in their
inlluenic all over our land, by the (
failure lo make them ru/i/i, accessible, ,
by the construction of noon roads
"Fair-weather Christians" are every
where hooted at. We do not mean
to encourage them in thc-ir dewlic
tions when wo suggest that they ,
, muy Lnd their excuse in " fair
v.cathcr highways." We will not
undertake to jxirtray the ordinary
"township road." It is fearfully and
wonderfully made, often consisting
of little more than the right of way
fenced in—or fenced out—and is
fitly characterized by the reply made
by the boy to the traveler who asked ,
of him which of two roads leading '
toward tho placo of his destination
lie had better take "The distance is
the same," said the hoy, "and no
matter which one you take, before
you have gono a mile you will wish
you had taken the other." That
very much of this expensive nnd dis. i
agreeable condition of our highways
is due to the antiquated and faulty
system of road laws which prevail,
we are ready th ndmit. Hut this
should not be so. This is a matter
in which the laws may be disregard- j
ed with impunity,and to the manifest
advantage of all concerned. There i
is nothing on the statute books to
prevent people from making and '
maintaining just as good and perma
nent roads as they may desire, and i
it is a reflection upon the enterprise
and intelligence of average farming |
communities to Hay that they will not
keep up a decent means of com in u- j
nidation except they are compelled I
to by et of osseuiply.
Our College.
I'reside nt Atherton, of the State
College, has made his first annual re
port, und we are glad to note that it
indicates a decided improvement in
the general condition of affairs. It
seems to he generally conceded that
at last the right man lias been
luund for the light place, and that
tin.- practical attainnn nls and fine
executive ability of ti,.- n- iv presi
dent will speedily result in n toring
this much maligned institution to the
confidence of the people of the State,
and placing it in its proper position,
at the head of the agricultural col- i
h-gi-s of the land. One ol tho most i
.■ratifying an-1 promising features of j
the new administration is the pcrh -t ,
accord and community of feeling al
ready established hclwc ti the pr -• ,
i-leiil and the very excellent faeultt
by which he is surrounded and sup- ,
ported. I pon this point i'rcsidciil | |
Atherton says : i.
"I ih siac lo express my apprc< ia- ,
lion of the cordial support and a
si-'ance I hav. rcicivcd from every
number of the faculty, without < \ '
crption I know of no eijual numb, r 1 i
< f gentlemen anvwhere who are giv- j
ing more faithful and devoted service
to their duli. s, and I look forward
with undoiiht) f eon! d.-nee to t fie day '
when the people of the State wiil i
recognize nnd acknowledge the fact.
In our o| mi a long step forward ,
was taken in Uic inarch of the- college j
towards substantial and permanent? |
succe-s, when the t ard ol trustees
at their annual me- ting, unanimously
adopted a resolution declaring their ,
full and cord d approval of the- views
cxpre --, i by I *r< sideiit Atherton:
"Ail diflii ulti< s in our way will be
oveteonie, if thosi charged with the
administration of this great trust
pursue a course- <>f earr t*; and sin. 1

A Garden in a Cornfield.
e Cute. \ \ Tolsiu#
'I ~e (.id-fashioned k.Uliiii garden,
fincc i in, surrounded witli currant
f.usfies and lurry plants which often
spread far out toward the centre,
with a few ' inches of peonies and
here and there a rosebush and a ,
r. .nip of hollybo. k". where possibly
the plough might b. used with a good
d. al of turning and tugging, but
more l.k. ly the spade with stii| hard
er work. It-longs to a by-gone age,
and savors more of penance than of
profit. Nowadays, with tl.o perfect
implement* for planting and culti
vating, gardening may IK- made easy.
If there is no Wtter spot, one corner
of the cornfield may IK- taken, and
all of the needs b planted in rows,
thickly or thinly according their
habit ol growing. Let the rows ex
tend across the field, and if too long
make part of theni corn or potatoes, i
The ground need only Ire well pre
pared as for com, and made fine with
the harrow and marked with a corn
markcr. For the fine seeds like let- ;
luce, onions, etc., the garden rake
may be used to smooth the surface
along the rows.

Tho quicker most vegetables grow
the better the quality.
Plenty of vegetables arc a blessing
to a housewife, and help wondcrSuriy
to surround tha farmer a xable with

A lithe wood ashes and hen manure,
mixed together and worked into the
soil, will give vegetables a rapid
start.
Ari OM Oorn Orowcr'fl Method of
Oultivution.
A farmer who ha* tin'l thirty yeard
experi. nee in growing corn iri several
, of the Western States, holds to tho
following views touching the host
methods of cultivating. We quota

tern, and considers it a waste of tino
and land with a certainty of smaller
crops. As soon us he Ircgins plant
ing he > tar 1 , a team and harrow after
the planter, doing a thorough job of
pulverizing the surface, and here ho
•my# 'this is the main secret of suc

until the i rn appears above the
ground. When the plants have be
oine thr' ■ or four inches high bo

inside next to the corn : set these to
move the dirt away from the plants,
put on the clod guards, raising them
• Bough to allow some of the line
soil to work in among the growing
corn ; take oil your outside shovels
and then go ahead. It you have
iiir< i men oiler a prize of a pair of
boots or a hat to the man who does
tin- most and best work at the first
' ultivation, that is, plow the closest
to the row and yet leave the plants
without lacing disturbed or covered
up. When he has finished plowing
he takes an A harrow, reverse this
and goes through the field. 'This
is the I>OSL and most essential culti
vation your crop ever gets.' It fills
the- rows completely, destroys all the
w> eds or gran, that may apjiear and
leaves the ground as level as when
planted. The last or second plowing
is done with the cultivator, using the
-arne twistc-1 shovels, only reverse
them and | lace on the outside beam,
*el to throw toward# the row, and he
claims the work of cultivation will
Ire complete. 15y this method the
'• am is relieved of dragging the two
. xtra sho\(|s, which lie claims arc
useless in the making of a crop of
corn.
Good Things Well Said.
The man who cultivates his land
to the extent beneficial to crops will
no" be troubled with foul weeds of
.any kind. It is the slipshod or half
way tillage that enables weeds,
drouth and other causes to rob the
'arm "f profitable returns.— lion. F.

TIM. world is last learning that
the financial value of the farm pro
duct i xeeeds that of the factory and
transportation combined, although
ail are e-*cntial to general prosjrerity.
Kngland has made a seri. us mistake
in sacrificing the farm to the factory
and to foreign commerce. The great
agricultural nations, such as A merics,

faster than has the United Kingdom.
The United States has astonished
tin world by its gigantic progress,
at the foundation of which is its
agricultural wealth and development.

Thk difference lielwecn putting the
