pecially designed for this:Work. To
those who
.cannot afford (or thilik
they cannot) such an implement, the
common harrow 'and log roller will
'be sufficient, if used • thoroughly; to
prepare the soil as a proper bed for
the seed, The old method of broad
cast,- sowing the Iwheat iatast being
superseded by the superior one of
drilling the grain. The drill.secures
uniformity of depth, and by putting
all the grains in a proper place for'
growth, there is a saving in. the
amount of seed be' used — six pecks
of good plump grain, and no other
should be used is, sufficient per
acre, if sowed with a drill. Much
depends upon the variety of seed;
sown, and the farmer should 'Make a
study - of this matter, to determine
which is the best kind of wheat for
his soil: and locality'. Early sowing
is the best, except when there is dan
ger from the Hessian' Fly.
sowed wheat makes such a poor,
growth before' the frost comes that
it is not in• good shape' fot winter
and is not sure of giving even a fair
crop. .The. preparation :44-- the soil
fOr rye is the same as for wheat,
though it will do well on 'a 'poorer
Soil than wheat. 'A soil that is rich
enough for a gocid . crop:of . rye, can
be made in many cases to produce a
'More paying crop by. adding ,a dress•
ing of:300 pounds of any good. ferti-.
_ lizer, and sowing it to wheat. The
value of rye straw in some localities
may \ 'make the rye crop, - grain and
straw together, more profitable:than
even a good crop.of wheat. This on
ly is the case near cities where the
straw brings a high price. A num
ber of crops may be grown for fall
fodder. White turnips may be sown
this mooth, and on good soil, vith
prOper care, COO to 800 bushels of
this excellent feed may be obtained
per Acre. These roots need to be
fed out 'rapidly; but if carefully stor
ed will last till Jinhary. Millet if
soma early. in this month, on rich
soil -will•inake an excellent feed for
late fall; and rye, sowed new,
if not needed -for pasture, produce a
fine growth for the spring solieg of
the farm stock:.
The root crops, mangels and beets,
and field cabbages; need frequent
cultivation during this - month, and
until the leaves cove' the ground. If
weeds are allowed to . grovi and the
soil is left unstirred, the crop will be
small. Sugar beets:are hest if earth
ed up at the hoeings,. so that the
roots arc entirely below ground.
Mangels do not require this "billing
up." Potatoes shoal& be ha !vested so
soon as they are ripe; otherwise the
tubers may;start into a new growth.
They are ranch More - apt to, be affect
ed by the "rot" if , left ILig in the
soil. If this "disease," which 'is a
fungus growth, makes its. appearance,
the vines - Should be all , burned so soon.
-as the potatoes are dug, as the spores
are thus destroyed in vast quantities.
When other work.is out .of the way
much' may be • done to make the
spring work lighter by plowing in
the fall. When this is done early, it'
is much like- a fallow in its effect
upon the soil—it kills the. weeds,
loosens the-soil, and allows of chem
ical changes that make -plant. food
available. HeaVy clay soil is ,much
improved by early. -Call

NOTES ON FARM STOCK
A rim at night will be beneficial for
a working team, but other feed is nec
esSary to keep the flesh lard and in
(rood - working order.- A net that
costs - but a.small sum will keep most
of the flies otr, and prevent one of the
most serious annoyances to the work
ing horse at . this season of the year..
The dry hot ground may induce feet
troubles, making the hoofs dry and
brittle. Shoes should be changed fre
quently, or be off entirely. See Col.
Weld's article on "barefooted Hors
ea" on. page 319.' The pasture is fre-,
quently short and dry at this time,
and other feed will be needed to keep
the cows up to a full. flow. -of milk.
Fodder corn' is excellent for this.
An abundance rof fresh cool. water
should be in reach, and shade from
the hot mid-day sun. Give them the
most favorable .opportunity fir feed
ing in the cool of the day, that they:
may be quiet "-herr it is too hot to
eat. Coupling season for sheep will
soon be here, and a 'good ram only
should be used. A "pure blood" of
the breeit desired should be procured
if withii reach. For lambs desired
forlhi7early spring market, a South
down 'cross is to be preferred; -the
Cotswolds give a : larger but less
prized animal. The' lambs should
by this time should be separated from
the. dams and given a good pasture
by themsClVes. The flocks . should
be watch6d carefully that no diseases,
tts dysentary, etc., Make much head
way amOno them. , Pies are fond of
green food, and profit - by a run in
clover. Pigs that Come durin g this
month will be ready ' as sninlipork
for the hollidaya. The pens should

will .cleanse and sweefilngre interior.
Let there be . no mud-holes into which
the pigs can go..

to the fair their best prodnete, and
haves personal interest in the. sue.
CeSS of the exhibition. There is no
better way of gaining...and impart.
Eng— information. The knowledge
to be acquired in the competition is
far above the . money value of any
prize,that is awarded. . Go to the
fair and
-take something with you.
The excellent condition of the soil
and other work not being so pressing,
the fall is the mostadvantegous time
for setting : the plants fora fruit gar
den.. We have often that every
-farmer should have a fruit garden—
one large enough to furnish the
fruit necessary fora continuous sup
ply for the table, from tire coming of
the earliest strawberries until , the
latest grapes are gone. Now is the
time for all who lack this supply to
stop and count their loss, and take
steps to make that loss good in corn
ing years by : planting a
,fruit garden
this autumn. Those who already
haVe such a garden will need to
give it some attention' this month..
Pinch the ends of the blackberry and
raspberry shoots, that have been left
for the bearing of fruit the coming .
year Six feet--is high enough for
blackberries and four feet for rasp
berries. The lateral shoots that
put out will need to be pinched later;
this will afford good stocky canes
that will bear abundantly the next
`year. The old canes that have borne
thiif - year .should -- have been cleaked
out as soon as done bearing ' and all
new shoots not desired_ for fruiting
should be treated as Weeds and de
stroyed. Strawberry plants that
have been rooted in pots, if planted
in the. fall, will bear .a fair crop nest -
year:- Runners that have rooted' in
the usual way; will need a • year's
nowth before fruit in quantities may
be expected. Plants set this fall will
have some advantage 'Over those set
next spring, in a more vigorous
growth, and as it is a less busy time
it is best to - set them in the fall.
Growers of plants largely advise
spring planting, because the plants
that are sent out in the fall would; if
kept in the propagating bed, put out
runners and produce other good
plants, to- be used for the spring
sales.
