UTrLKMRNTAUT FKnTILIKRttg FOR WfTRAT
It is not possible, except while the
ground it frozen or covered with snow,
to draw loads of manure nnd spread
them on wheat fields after the plant is
up. But we have known farmers who
had drilled wheat without fertilizer, to
go oyer the field again, running the
drill tubes between the rows, and depos
iting a dressing of 150 pounds of fertil
izer per acre. This doubly pays. The
drill tubes will only go deep enough to
hoe the wheat without uprooting it, and
the fertilizer deposited in freshly stirred
soil is doubly effective. Botton Culti

There are two varieties of the peach
that bear good and more uniform crops
than nearly any others, even in seasons
when there is generally a scant product.
These are tho Karly Iiivers among the
early varieties, and the Smock among
the late ones. Tho Early Rivers has
borne with us every year when there was
any peach crop at all, whilo its excellent
flavor and quality add to its value. It
ripens about two weeks after the Amsden
and Waterloo and others of the early
group in the first of August, and imme
diately precedes the Hale. After the
throng of fine varieties has passed dur
ing the middle season, and tho ripening
of late ones is approaching an end, we
are sure to have a good supply of the
Smock if there are any peaches at nil. A
fruit of moderate quality, it is much im
proved if properly thiuned ou the
branches aud with good cultivation.
The Ktvcrs originated in England, but
succeeds well with our soil and climate;
the Smock (nnmed after the originator)
was raised in New Jcfsey. Country Gtn
tkmen. GERMINATING NUTS.
The only reason why many person?
fail to mako such nuts as pecaus, hick
ory,English walnuts and chestnuts germi
nate when planted is that they allow
them to get thoroughly dried before
they are placed in the ground. For pe
cans, slicllbnrk-liickory nuts, filberts
and other hard-shell kinds there is no
belter place to store them during winter
than in heaps of sand piled up on some
shady spot in the open ground. First
place a layer of the nuts, then a layer of
saud, then a layer of nuts, and proceed
in this wny until your stock of nuts is
exhausted, and cover the heap with six
inches of good soil or sods, and leave all
undisturbed until spring, then take out
the nuts and plaut iu drill?. If there is
dungct of mice and squirrels carrying
away the mils, place them in well drained
boxes, covering with wire netting.
Chestnuts may bo stored in tho same
way, but the sand should be clean and
the boxes set where the water from melt
ing snows will quickly drain off. Fresh
imported English walnuts buried in the
fall or nny time in the early winter will
usually germinate quite freely. Imported
filberts are sometimes gathered before
quite mature, and for this reason fail to
grow, but if the kernels are plump when
obtaiued there is no (lunger of failute if
kept cool and inoUt duriug the winter.

FEED AKD BREED.
There is no disputing the fact that
cveryibing is in the feed. The best lay
era in the country are utterly worthless
if not properly fed. No one would ex
pect the Brahma fowl to be classed
among tho heavy layers, yet we know of
a contest in which a flock of these big
bodied birds beat the record of a flock of
Leghorns. It is not a common thing
fcr them to do so, but as an experiment
they were feed for that purpose and
won. If we feed fat producing food to
our layers can we reasonably expect them
to lay many eggs? Would not common
sense teach us that such a thing would be
next to impossible? Likewise, how can
wu fatten fowls for market with food
that has no fat forming qualities in it?
We feed broilers for quick growth; we
feed hens for egts; we feed fowls for
the table. Our birds become just what
we make them. As an experiment, we
penned twelve hens and a cockerel in a
yard aud fed them on oats, bran, and
cornmeal. They were regularly supplied
with green food and grit. From that
yard we are getting an average of live
and six ecrgs a days. In another yard an
equal amount of hens are receiving corn,
cornmeal, and boiled potatoes, and the
eggs are few and far between. Again,
we place two ducklings in a broider
(without heat) and feed them ou corn
meal and bran, and we killed them at
two mouths of age perfect models of
what market ducklings should be.
While, on the other hand, a neighbor
gave two ducklings the run of the fnr.n
with plenty of feed, and they are uot fit
to kill ; yet ours have been devoured over
a month ago. Verily, there is more in
the feed than in tho breed. 'Jcnnan-

HCST IN W II EAT.
It is calculated that Australia loses
nearly $10,000,000 annually through
the rustiug of its wheat crop. To find a
remedy the Hark Laue Expre says a
prize of $50,000 has been oflereJ, aud
ruBt conferences have been held in Syd
ney. The opimou prevuiled generally
that "certain sorts of wheat uro much
better able to resist rust than others, aud
tbut by judicious cultivation andbybrid
izatiou still better varieties may be
grown. They teem to be almost unan
imous that early maturing sorts can be
made to escape the dangerous 8cu.;ou,aud
that rust is due to climatic conditions
that cau only be combatted, but Lever
entirely overcome."
Evidence has been gathered by direct
experiments, and by intonnatiou received
from farmers iu response to questions
put to them, which cou firms the sound
ness of previous rccoruniendutitms iu re
gard to early sowing, and the less liabil
ity to disease of crops growuin rotation,
and it lias also been shown that a a
rule thiuly-growing crops suffer less from
rust thttu do thickly-growing crops. Iu
regard to curutivc measures it has been
found that a solutiou compose 1 of one
part of sulphate of copper and 400 parts
of water destroyed the vitality of tho
. rust spores, and that a solution of one
ounce of sulphate of iron to the gallon
t of water, when sprayed over a growing
crop at a time when rust was a'luut to
break out, prevented its appearaiue un
til a fortnight or three weeks later; and
even if applied nhen the rust had at
tacked the plant, destroyed all outward
, appiaraiicu of the fungus and prevented
its ic.ipptiiiaiii c till fourteen days after-
' ward.
Mr. Smith Kllis, who has claimed the
$50,000 for his discoveries iu the tuatlttr
of rust prevention, says in a recent rpr '
that "the wheat growers themselves ars I
the sole propagators of rust by the abase
of their seed wheat. When they cease to j
abuse their seed wheat and treat it in a
rational manner like all other seed that is
gixcvn, saved and stored by practical
seed growers, they will no longer be
troubled with rust in their crops. Tho
cost ot doing so is nothing; care is all
that is required to secure that object."

HATtVESTINO CLOVER SKBD.
A heavy crop of clover seed can be cut
with an ordinary mowing machine and
raked up with a steel rake. The wind
rows will need to be repcatodly turned
and sometimes, if the crop is green,
shaken out. When dry run the steel
rake along the windrows and put tho
clover into carefully-made, good-sized
cocks that willshed rain. Let the clover
sweat in the cocks, if it will, and when
dry draw into the barn. He fore we had
such good threshing machines aud clover
hullers it was deemed desirable to ex
pose the crop as much as possible to the
weather, letting it get wet and dry sev
eral times until it was nearly half-rottod.
After such exposure, when dry and kept
until cold weather, it threshed easier.
This is not now necessary.
A light crop of clover seed, one that is
short and thin on tho ground, must be
cut with a platform reaper. If cut with
a mowing machine the strol rako will
leave much of it on the ground, and it
will hardly pay to rake it up with woodcu
hand-rakes. There aro several reaping
machines that do the work to perfection.
A movable cutter bar can be set so that
tho knives will shave tho ground. The
clover falls on the platform and can be
carried, if the crop is light, quite a long
distance and then discharged into a fair
sized cock. If the clover is dead-ripe
then cocks or bundles may not need
turning, but can be pitched on the
wagon with a barley fork and mowed
away in the barn, or threshed at once.
If it is difficult to get the crop dry put it
on a scaffold, where it will dry out be
fore 11 is ueueseitry iu turesil 11.
In regard to threshing and cleaning
clover seed, if one has hud no experience,
probably a good plan to got the desired
information will be to write to the man
ufacturers of the threshing machine ho
uses. In sections whore much olover
seed is grown the threshers go from
farm to farm during the winter mouths
aud thresh nnd clean tho seed for so
much per bushel. It is highly dosirablo
on account of insect depredators that the
area in which clover seed is grown
should be extended. A good average
crop is five bushels per acre, and as or
dinary medium red clover is a second
crop the first crop being cut for hay ia
May or June the money for the clover
seed is obtaiued at little trouble or ex
pense. "But will it not exhaust the
land?'' In proKrtion to the money
value, clover seed impoverishes the land
lees than almost any other crop we grow.
We retain all the leaves, stems, chaff
and roots on the farm and sell only the
seed. A bushel of clover seed contains
no more fertilizing constituents or plant
food than a bushel of pea?. It is good
policy to grow and sow more clover
seed. If one fears it impoverishes the
soil he should take n part of the money
nnd buy cottcn-seed cake or fertilizers.
The exchange can be made at a big
profit. American Agriculturitt.

A herd of cattle at Dundee, Illinois,

Give the fowls that are confined a
chauce to find all that they would were
they on the range. This will keep them
busy, healthy aud bringing you in money.
What else do you keep them for? Fun.
Well, it is fun to sea them enjoy them
selves. It is not always the best and most
elaborate poultry lious-js that shelter tho
choicest stock. Success, however, de
pends on warm, dry coops, with proper
care and raauagemeut and freedom from
overcrowdiug. This latter trouble ii
often the caue of ill success. If you
wish a healthy flock, keep few in a pen.

"Well, I suppose you have heard a

this farm they obtained 50,000 bushels
of flax, au average of a little over fifteen

UTTLIZINO TIIB ENTIItK PUMPKIN.
When a pumpkin is purchased for
family use it is seldom that more than
half of it is required. This will make
four or five pics, all that an average fam
ily is likely to use for some time. In
order to utilize the other half of tho
pumpkin, it may be cither canned or
uried for wiuter use. Canned pumpkin
docs not retain its flavor and makes an
unsatisfactory pie, and drying seems to
bo a better way to preserve it. In order
to do this peel the pumpkin and cut it
iu wafer-like strips, put it in tho heat
ing closet under the oven, laid out on
paus and plates, or set it on a tin roof in
the broiling hot sunshine. It will soon
be'eomo crisp and dry. When it is
thoroughly so put it in a loose bag and
hang it in a dry store-closet. In the
spring when all materials for making pies
are scarce, and apples are tasteless, very
excellent pics may be made of this dry
pumpkin. Soak a cup of it in water,
cook it up for an hour in tho wator in
which it was soaked, then drain it and
use it like ficihty cooked pumpkin. It
doos not make so good a pio as freshly
cooked pumpkin, but it is far better than
winter squash for this purpose. aYsit

TO ITAVE A BIUQUT LAMP.
In these days when lamps are used so
much the care of thum is quite an imp.ir
taut matter, writes Maria Parloa in her
department in the Ladiet' Home Journal.
If tho lamps be good and have proper at
tention, one cannot wish for a more satis
factory light; but if badly cared for they
will be a source of much discomfort.
The great secret of haviug lamps in good
working order is to keep them cleau and
to use good oil. Have a regular place
and tune for trimming tho lamps. Put a
loided newspnper on tho table, so that
any bits of burned wick and drops of oil
may fall upon it. Wash and wipe the
chimneys and shades. Now take oS all
loose parts of the burner, washing them
iu hot soap suds and wiping with a cleau
soft cloth. Trim tho wicks and turn
them quite low. With a soft, wet cloth,
wellsoaped. wipe the burner thoroughly,
working the cloth as much as possible in
side the burner, to get off every psrticlo
of the charred wick. Now fill the lampi
within about one inch of the top, and
wipe with a damp towc'. and then a dry
one. Adjust all tho paits nnd return
them to their proper places. Whenever
a new wick is required in a lamp, wash
and scald the burner before putting in
tho wick. With a student lamp, the re
ceptacle for waste oil, which is screwed
on the bottom of the burner, should be
taken oil at least once week and
washed. Sometimes a wick will get
very dark and dirty before it is half con
sumed. It is not economy to try to burn
it; replace it with a fresh one. The trou
ble and expense are slight, and the in
crease in clearness and brilliancy will re
pay tho extra care. When the lamp is
lighted it should not at once be
turned up to tho full height, wait until
the chimnsy is heated. Beautiful shados
are oflen cracked or broken by having
the hot chimneys rest against them. Now,
when lighting a lamp be careful that the
chimney is set perfectly straight aud does
not touch the shade at any point. The
shade should be placed on the lamp as
soon as it is lighted, that it may heat
gradually.

atmosphere is indicated. It has been
believed that the moon has no atmosphere-,
and therefore is uninhabitable;
but if it should be demonstrated that
snow falls upon tho surface of the satel
lite the accepted theory would be upset,
and astronomers would bogin to study
tho moon with new and greater interest.
Objects upon the moon are detected
by their shadows, and a projection or
eminence fifty feet high casts a shadow
large euough to bo seen through the
Lick telescope If Professor lloldeu,
studying his series of photographs,
should discover somo day a new shadow
where none had been cast beforo when
tho n.oon wns in tbe si.iue position and
under the same light, he would know
that something had been erected upon
tho surface, either a part of the crust up
heaved by some iutemal movement, or a
building put up by liviug creatures. The
moon appears to be a dead, desolate
waste of played-out volcanoes and coolod
off lava beds, without atmosphcro, and,
like Arizona, rather short of water and

The Telephone I'orcasU Weather.
The telephone is about to have a now
application, namely, that of fortelling
storms. A new discovery has beon niado
as to ono of the properties of this means
of transmitting sound. By placing two
iron bars nt seven or eight meters dis
tance from each other, aud then putting
them in communication on tho tide by
a copper wire covered with rtibbor, aud
on the other sido with a telephone, a
storm can, it is said, be predicted at least
twelve hours ahead throuirh a dead sound
heard in tha receiver. According as the
storm advances tho sound resembles tho
beating of hailstones niainst tho win
dows. Every flash of lightning, and, of
course, every clap of thunder that ac
compauics the storm produces a shock
similar to that of a stotio beiug cast be

A Fox Story.
An island off the Irish coast was In
habited by large numbers of rabblta, '
and could bo reached at low tide by
wading, the water there bolnir only a few
incline deep. One morning some fisher- !
men went in their boat quito early, it be- I
ing high tide, and on landing saw a dead
lox lying on the boach. The animal
seemed to have been drowned. One of
tho mon, remarking that his akin was
worth something, pitched him into the
boat. Procuring their bait they roturnod
to the main land, and the man who had
possessed himself of the fox seized him
by the tail and flung him on shoro.
As toon as the animal struck tho beach
he picked himself up with considerable
agility for a dead fox, nnd shot off like
a flash up among tho cliffs. The men
concluded that ho had crossed over to
tho island duriug tho night when the
tide was low, in search of rabbits, and
finding in tho morning that he was cut
oil from the mainland, counterfeited
death, with the expectation of thereby
procuring a passage to tho shoro in a
boat, an expectation which was fully
realized. National Labor Tribune.
