Two years ago I sowed and hnr
veste d some t acres of oats, cut for
hay in the milk, wlic-li yield* 1 12
large wagon loads of splendid hay. |
but not having the means of w ( igb.
ing, cannot say how many tons they
were but we estimated as near as we
could after the mow settled at 20
tons. This hay was fed to milk cows ,
and to horses. It was eaten with ;
avidity and tin- cows yielded largely I
of good rich milk, and that with only
2 quarts of corn chop daily to each.
Last year I plowed up a heavy
run-out sod, manured it with f. lrge
wagon loads of rich manure (made
from fattening eattle |>er acre, har
rowed and cross-harrowed it. and
made it very nice and mellow. I
then sowed 1J bushels of Canada
field jieas per aere, shoveled it in
and then harrowed it level. I then
drilled t bushels of oats and using
1100 pounds of blood and bone per
acre. The ground was then rolled.
The crop was put in the last week in
April and the piece was not quite
acres.
The yield was very heavy and it
was a source of amazement to every
one who saw it. It was fed green to
cows, to hogs, and in the greatest
abundance, before the oats were out
of the tnilk it was cut and cured as
bay, and this winter by having it, 1
was enabled to sell some ten tons of
hay mor# than I could have spared
without it.
My oats and peas are now up ami
growing finely, but it is not too late
to sow. If you want an abundance
of good feed, cither green or dry, try
an acre or two. Put the ground in
good order, make it rich ai\d put on
plenty of teed and you will Ins de
lighted with the yield. Your stock
1 will thrive upon it wondorfully and
the milk will be rich and produce
first quality of butter.
I grow and use large quantities of
corn fodder, but oats ami peas will
compare favorably with any forage
crop I ever grew Don't forget tin
old farm crops : only give them a
fair trial and the result will be satis

In some localities one or more of
Ihe ( abbage Worms is still trouble
some. The most common of tires'*
are the caterpillars of medium-sized
butterllics, tin- wings of which are
white, with a few black spots ; there
are three distinct species, but all are
similar in their habits. Wherever
these butterflies are seen Hitting
about over the cabbage and cauli
flower plants, trouble from "worms"

worms eat into the forming head, and
when they have thu hidden nothing

I he teinj'ting prices obtainable for i
really choice -arly lambs Ims yearly
I proved a greater temptation than i
many owners could rcsi-t. and the
lesult has bet n that quite a number
of ewe lambs arc sacrificed at the
shambles, to the serious detriment of
I flock improvement ; a# wdl as ulti
mate loss to owners of the country.
As in a majority of instances the
• ires of these latnbs are letter bred
animals than arc the dams, their
preservation would prove a long
stride in the direction of flock im
provement, and if the owner feels
compelled to restrict the number of
animals handled, a rigid culling Irom
the older ewes and filling their places
from the choicest ewe iambs, sbculd
be a policy from which no temporary
demand for "lamb and spring peas"
tempts him to deviate. So long as
the ewe lamb is a superior bred ani
mal to its mother (and the breeder
who <loes not have it so has mistaken
his calling), it will prove the more
profitable to retain in the flock. Not
only does such retention insure the
commingling of fresh and better
blood, but it reduces thecx|>ense and
! dangers of management by the omis
sion of animals which have passed
their prime, and filling their places
with those that in the nature of
things will grow belter instead of
worse, for at lea-t several succeeding
years. Those who have not care
fully compared results fail to appre
ciate how materially the loas from
"natural cauaea"' may be reduced by
a careful observance of tlie policy of
retaining either for increase in num
bers or rnaintainig any desired num
ber—young and growing animals,
and rigidly excluding such as have
passed the meridian of life and vig
orous improvement. The advantage
in this respect alone is sufficient to
offset any temporary top price for
ewe lambs, and when to it is added
the tide of improved blood that
< ornes on through young animals,
every prudent flock-manager will find
warrant for steeling his face against
the most tempting offers for young
females.

I\ exterminating the cut-worm
Professor C V. Hi Icy suggests that
three or four holes be made in the
soil from four to six inches deep
with a dibble or planting stick. If
the sides of these holes are made
smooth and the worm, whose move
ments arc very sluggish, falls into
them, he cannot get out and will
perish. If a bundle of clover and
an inch or so thick is placed
near the young plants it well be oc
cupied by the worm as a harbor with
out going under ground. This should
be visited every morning and tha
culprit taken into safe quarters.
