this direction is an increased vain :\

is to furnish, as far us possible, a full

commonly in demand.
In sowing the seeds of beets, car
rots and parsnips the coveting should
not l>c over three-quarters of an inch
in depth, and soon as the young
plants are from three lo four inches
high they should be thinned out to a
distance of eight inches npnit, in
order to admit a light hoc !>etwoon
them. In addition to the benefits 1
from good manuring, clean, thor
ough cultivation is essential for full
crops.
Clippings and Comments.
Those w ho have a patch of corn to
piece out the pastures in July and
August are lucky, especially if there
)>c a drouth. Ho not sow, but drill
in rows four feet apart, the grains 2 ' 1
to 4 inches apart in the rows. 8e- •
lect sugar corn—Stow ell's Kvergreon. ;,
Cultivate as for a crop of corn, and j
do not cut until ears arc well matur
ed. From such a patch an abundant '
supply of boiling ears for the 1
can be obtained, as well as green fod- f
dcr for the milkers. Plant a new (
patch every two week* from May Ist
to July 4th. Try tho wheat drill for 1
planting with al! hut two of the 1
spouts closes! up.—farm Journal. s
And in addition you have the very
best of material for giving the pork
ers ' n early start.
The farming public are sufllciently
exacting to d< mand full value re
ceived for outlays hi fertilizers.—
Ami ri' iti (,'nltii ulnr,
I nfortunatoly this just and right
eous demand is seldom, if ever met.
This is the "sticking point" in the
whole fertilizer business.
The great leak in our farm man
agement is poor seed. ( }jr. of
I'iiriner.
The many farmers of our acquaint
ance who have Is'en compelled to re
plant their corn this spring, and
have been unable to get reliable seed
to do it with, will agree with this.
Wonder if their memorh - will hold
the fact long enough to cause the in
to take special pains hi caring for
their seed next fall.
It has been noticed by a shrewd
writer on A mcrican manners that a
mechanic in search of work is ' out
of a job," a clerk in the -ame ;>r. I,<
anient "disengaged,' and a ; io
f< ssional man is "at leisure.'' The
mechanic "get- work," the clerk
"connects" himself with some estab
lishment. and the profes-ional man
"resumes prac' ice."- I. < nm.
The farm< r is the only man we
know w ho in •■ d • no such < xprcssions.

It is a question wiih some western
farmers whether they are real I v prof- '
iled by robbing their land of fer- j
tility and selling enormous crops at
present low rates. When this fer

expensive process to replace it, as
eastern farmers arc learning to their
coat.

The Profits.
r Ultf . W. ,
It has long lx-eri an accepted rule
with farmers that pigs in the Eastern
States repn *i nt, as dressed pork, the
value of the food given them, and
that the profit in keeping them is
rcpr< srnted by the manure. Apply- ]
ng the same method of reasoning to
well-cared-for poultry, shows such a
dei ;dt 1 balance in its favor as ought
to open the cy < s of the most bigoted.
Many, or in fact the majority, of the
bo! men who make farming a c icn
til. purv.it, keep pure blooded poul
'.r\, as well as blooded live stock of
( ' 'tin r description*, and find ' that
"foiks in bathers'' are as profitable
as anything they raise.
W hen the comparatively small cost
lof -tarting with a fair nurniier of
iir*t-clas fowls, and the rapidity with
wl.'.ch they reproduce themselves and
become ready for --ale i considered,
tin v must . rnpar'" very favorably
even with ? cow*, or any single
ol <a t of *p< eial worth.

manure diluted with three times its

ii.l v. A bandy way to secure a little
li juid manure for a small garden is
to put up a barn 1 filled with manure
and pour in a bucket of water once
n a while, letting it soak through
the manure. If the contents of the
barril are rich, -trong manures, it
must Is- diluted w.th three or four
times its bulk of water to produce
the hc-t results. Try the plan and
you will never give it up if you
faithfully follow it the fir" l -! season,
for your plants treated in this man
ner will almost double their
and it is not much trouble to fill the
cans i very evening or morning.—Cl<i

The Mark I.ane Hrjirr** says two
methods of administering the salt
present themselves. One of these is
to give it with chart of cut hay and
straw, or other meal in a trough.
The other is to drench them wilb
brine of a proper strength. iMost
men will lie disposed to give prefer
ence to the former mode of effecting
the cure.
