The bronze turkey is tho original bird from which all tho knowD varieties have descended. It inhabits the greater part of this continent, and when well cared for and fed, it reaches a weight of from twenty-fivo to forty pounds at full growth. It has been much improved by careful and skilful breeding; its prin cipal feature is its handsome plumage, which is of a dark brown color and has brilliant golden bronze reflections in the sunlight. Breeders of theso birds are to be found in almost every locality if only sought for. iVeie York Timet. HOW TO CATCH A FOWL. Few persous know how to secure a fowl to advantage. Never seize a fowl by the tail, if a fine bird, nor touch tho back, but grasp both legs at once, with a firm, tight, quick hold, and then raise free from the ground or perch and hang the body down clear of any obstacle. This method docs not radio the plumage or turn a feather, which in a line bird inu-t be avoided. When tho web of tho feathers is once broken it can never be united again, and where much bandied this often occurs, giving to tho bird n ragged appearance. It is tho source of much annoyance to a nice, clean, smooth bird to have the plumage rallied. Their bodily coveriug is regardod with tho ut most care, and the lustre and beauty of it indicate tho health and strength of tho fowl. Kantai Farmer. such as phosphoric, acid, potash and lime, are derived solely and entirely from the toil. Nitrogon, on the other hand, may bo taken into the plant from the air or from the soil, and nitrogen la the most valuable constituent of manures, and by far the costliest ingredient of commercial fertilisers. It now seem! certain, from experiments and analyses made both in Europe and this country, that many of the so called legumes, es pecially the clovers and peas, have the power of gathering a part of their nitro irerj in the form of protein. The protein compounds form blood, muscle, tendon, bones and other nitro genous tissues. This makes plants of this class especially valuable as loaders in supplying the protein in which many of our most common fodder plauts are lacking. When they are plowed under, or aro fed to stock and the manure is returned to tho ground, they nlso supply the nitrogen which other crops such as wheat, rye, oats, grapes and root crops aro uuable to acquire for themselves, except through tho medium of tho soil. It has thus become quite generally under stood among farmers that, whether cul tivation for the sake of their own prod ucts may be profitable or not, there aro but few soils where they can bo ignored in the rotation of crops without leading eventually to improvement. Vi York KEEPIKO COWS IXDOOltS. E. W. Stewart answers an inquiry in tho Country Gentleman as to tho advisa bility of feeding cows continuously in stable, as follows: "The dairy cow re quires less exercise, perhaps, than any other farm animal. Exercise is opposed to the secretion of milk, and the dairy cow, if in a light, well ventilated stable, enn keep healthy with only an occasional airing in the open yard. Wo have known herds perfectly healthy without being turned out of tho stable during the win ter season. Dairy cows will do better, nnd give more milk on the samo food, vdicu never turned out except for nn Lour or so on a pleasant day. They should be watered when they stand in atnblo. When fed constantly in stable, great care should be taken to give food in the most digestible form, and special attention should be given to its being palatable." ', insects isjcmous to cloveiu The Ohio Station describes three in sects which do considerable dainairo to clover: 1. The clover root borer is small brownish-black, minutely spotted beetle which deposits its eggs during spring in the crown of the clover plant, These hatch, and the larvae burrow downward through tho larger roots of the plants, doing serious injury, luo remedy is frequent rotation of crops, thus not allowing tho clover fields to stand until they become breeding places lor the insects. I 2. The clover-seed midge is a small orange colored maggot that develops in the clover head at tho expense of the seed. Fields infected by this insect are at once distinguished by tho unnatural condition of tho heads at the time of blossoming. The best preventive is mowing tho field as soon as the presence of the insect is obstrved and before tho seed has reached maturity. 3. Clover hay that has been standing in the mow or stack for some time is liablo to become infested by small brown worms which web the dried stems and leaves together and feed upon them. This is most likely to occur when old hay is left over from season to season for them to breed in, consequently the mows should be thoroughly cleaned out each summer and new stacks should not be put on old foundations until all the leavings of the previous season are removed. Hay -which it iuiested with the worms should be burned. Sews and notes for women. CCRINQ HAT. I Clover not thoroughly dried may be safely put in barm with tight siding, so that air caunot come in at tue sides. But if very green it must be entirely freo from water, either of dows or rain, which carries bacteria to the hay, and creates more violent fermentation than is pos sible with the juices of the clover alone The heat of fermentation dries up these juices so that they make a sweet, gummy substance that U reuliy preservative. If no air can get in, then such hay would keep, us preserves are kept in closed jars, But the mixture of old hay or straw with new prevents all danger of loss. A farmer remarked thnt some yean ago he had a stock of hay so poor that cattle ate only a little of it, and he purchased grain and fed straw with it instead. Next having time he made a stuck of new hay, drawing clover almost as soon as cut, and putting on first a layer of old hay, then of grass, until tno stacK was completed. The mixture made excelleut hay. The old and the new were euten witt equal greediness, lie believed that tho same result would have followed alternating green hay with straw, excepting that the straw has a lower nutritive value. Part, however, of the defective nutritiou of straw is due to its lack of attractive flavor. In so far us it can be given the aroma of new clover hay, iU digestibility is increased. Whatever is eaten with a relish does more good than when forced down. Straw can thus be improved as feed, besides helpiug to secure buy in better condition tbau would otherwise bo possible. This plan is best suited to out door stacks. Few farmers have enough barn room to stuck much btraw. Uotton C'ulticutur. FA71M AND GARDE! NOTES. Tho cauna is a popular foliage plant. Oxalis needs littlo water after it has finished flowering. Heliotropes should be kept shapely by frequent cutting back. Bv supplying a good variety of food the necessity for feeding condiments is largely avoided. Young poultry should not be allowed to go on the roosts too early ; it causes deformed breasts. Old fushia plants for next winter's blooming should be cut back and re potted iu fresh soil. Ducks aro so much clumsier than chickens that it is not a good plan to keep them together in the same yard. Hens should never be fed so well that whon they are given a good range they will not forage a good portion of the time. Oneadvantage with stone-drinking ves sels is that they will keep the water cool much longer, while they ore cosily kept clean. Summer pruning of the vine, when done at all, is usually overdone, and it is but little practiced by successful grape growers. If the poultry aro conSned now a good plan is to feed soft food in the morniug, a green food at noon, and whole graiu at night. In selecting out the roosters to keep for next season's breeding, take those that aro compact, of medium size and very active. A good nest egg can lie made by mak ing a hole in the large end, letting the yolk Tun out and filling the shell with plaster of paris. To hatch out late chickens, the best place to make the nests is upon the ground. A more even heat and moisture will be secured. In nearly all coses chickens should bo separated from the old hens whenever they are full-feathered. Separate them and let the hens go to laying. One of the easiest and best ways of curing a setting hen is to put her in a box or cage with nothing to sit on or amuse herself with but boards. Store away the sorghum seed, some millet and sunflower seed, a good bunch of clover hny, as well as corn, oats and wheat, to feed the poultry during tho winter. If the poultry are to be fed economi cally during the winter care must be taken during the summer to secure and store away a sufficient amount of food for them. Sheep do not like tall grass, but pre fer that which is short. They will pick up quite a large share of their food on fields that are but scantily covered, and in wheat stubble they will eat down all young weeds as fast as they appear. Sheep are excellent scavengers. Dairymen should remember that les sening the cost in producing milk is quite as short a cut to the profits, and equally as certain, as an advance In price per gallon. Improvement in tho cow, the feed and the management wm insure the first condition, and will most likely be followed by the second. Those who are obliged to keep their poultry confined all the time may, by giving an hour's liberty just at night, provide a dally grass ration and quite a supply of animal food without expense. The amount of scratching a hen can do In one hour in the morning is surprising, but at night this may be avoided. A successful plan in making lawns is said to be to sow down in August, add ing ubout two pounds of turnip seod to the aero. The gradual growth of the turnip foliage forms a congenial damp shade for the vegetation and spread of the young grass plauts. The large leaves of the vegetable also protect the grass from early frosts. Their gradual decay and removal are effected before tho grasses are so far advanced as to be hurt by continuous shade, and a thick sward is secured belore winter. Shirt-fronts are multiplying. Unfiles are again to tho fore. Yellow is the sunshlno color. Basket trald hats are popular. Photographs como on buttons. Foplin petticoats are a novelty. Dogskin gloves aro having a run.

It appoars that recently soma German students, desirous of commemorating Connt Von Moltke, under the leadership of a pastor of a local cburcb who was master of cere monies, drank a solemn "Trauer-Salauian-der" in his memory. Any American min ister who should lend himself to such a beer drinking ceremony iu the name of mourning, in this country, would give rise to a great scandal. It Is n striking illustration of the backwardness of the temperauoe reform in Germany, that such a ceremony could take place and be nothing thought ot as peculiar or exceptional in that country. The agita tion for total abstinence on this side of the Atlantic, though it has not prevented a still enormous consumption of intoxicants, bos, especially in religious circles, deprived social drinking usages of much of their old-time respectability.

A gen eral view and description of this curious and artistio piece of mechanism is given as follows by the Uorological Review: The very charming case is composed of three branches in rustic work. It stands upon a square stono block, sur rounded on its four sides by beautiful leaf plants, ivy and grasses. Tho stone foot stands within a water basin. The upper part of tho enso contains a dial covered with glass on each of its four sides. Upon the cupola stands n stall which carries th two bells for tho full hour ann quar ters. At its upper end Is a small vane in tho shape of a battle nx.

It loads down our crim inal calendar. We are living in a fortunate period of time; the country isnt peace with foreign nations: there is no civil strife within its borders; no agrarian war; no con flict of classes has occurrei. Yet our jails and work-houses are crowded , our criminal courts are never void of culprits; our police forces, though lnrge, are too small for the work allotted to them. What is the cause? 1 answer: Alcohol. Intemperance is not the sole crime of the day, nor is it the sole cause of other crimes which men commit. Butas Chief Justice Noah Chase, of New York, says: "Amoug all the causes of crime in temperauee stand out the unapproachable chief." In addition to specific rum crimes, alcohol begets numberless others, inasmuch as it awakens the lower appetites, and hreaks down nil moral barriers. It is the fruitful feederof immorality, theft, rapine, tutir.ler. It suggests to the mind the thought ot crime; it gives the animal excitement needel for deeds of violeuco, it silences consciences v. hen the deed has been done.
