Make a plnoe out doora an rich and mellow a pomible, bow the aeed in drills rather thinly, and cover nights to keep in the heat. It is very im portant to make a rapid bnt ntocky growth. This may be done by putting nitrate of aoda in the drill row and transplanting eaoh plant oneo if not more times Wfore finally setting it out where it is to make a head, rinnts thus treated are worth donblo those grown closely crowded in tho matted bed. Boston Cultivator. OBOWINO POTATOE8. To grow potatoes, select the best soil yon can get, avoiding ground that is liable to overflow, clear off all the trash, and if the ground is not very rich apply a good dressing of well rotted manure and then plow as deep as yon can. Then harrow until the soil is in good condition. Then as soon as dancer of frost is past plant for early crop. First of Jnne plant peach blows. When ready to plant take a plow and rnn deep furrows three and cno-half feet apart. Cut your potatoes in pieces, one or two eyes to the piece, drop eighteen inches apart iu these furrows, one piece in a place. Then take a hoe and cover, putting an inch of soil over each piece. Cultivate ns soon as the plants are well Tip and keep filling in the furrows, and you will not be troubled with weeds in the rows and will not need to do any hand weeding. Cultivate once a week till they bloom. New York Observer. THE COW'S CCD. Tho cow's cud is a quantity of the food that is brought np from the first stomach after the food hus been swal lowed and the animal is resting and has time to rcmosticate it more com pletely. Between the first and second stomachs there is a receptacle, about five inches long and the size of the gullet. A portion of the food is pressed into this part of the gullet and is brought np into the throat ond month, where it is chewed slowly. This food may bo seen ascending tho gullet when the cow is ruminating. The cud is not any distinct thing, as some Euppose, that may be lost, but is simply a por tion of tho food which comes from the stomach in the way described. When a cow is said to lose her end, nothing is lost or dropped, but by reason of indigestion the action of the stomach is suspended, and it is restored as soon as the trouble is removed by any simple medicine. The most effective is a dose of a pint of raw linseed oil or mcltod lard. New York Times, FEBTTUZKB8 AJfD OOW-PEAS. The manner of properly treating and applying fertilizers is yearly receiving more consideration among farmers. On this subject the Georgia Experi ment Station tells Honthcrn farmers that tho best results can only be ob tained from concentrated fertilizers by UBing them on the best lauds, and not by scattering them at the rate of 100 or 200 pounds to the acre over a large, worn-out plantation. Nor should the mistake lie made of applying large amounts of concentrated fertilizers on worn-out land. The larger tho appli cation the nioro important it becomes that tho land should be in the best pos sible condition, such as it would have .been left in by a good crop of small grain, with thorough and deep plow ing and harrowing. The practice of sowing cow-peas is strongly urged for renovating the Boil and for hay. Nitrogen is the most im portant element of plant food because it is indispensable to the plant and is deficient in all worn or partially ex hausted soils. It is the most uniformly effective element of a fertilizer for all grains, grasses and cotton. While the most expensive, if bought in the mar ket, it may be drawn from the air by cultivating such plants as clover, pea nuts, vetches, burrclover, lucerne and especially the cow-pea, w hich, if prop erly utilized, will le more valuable to the Southern furnier than rod clover has been to the farmers of the North and West. New York World. BMrEDDJO SOWS. A sow that is a good breeder should bo kept for several years, or until she forms some bad habit, of which unruli ness and eating her young are the two that give most trouble. When the sow gets her full growth her litters will be larger healthier and more uniform, often without a single titman. In tho first litter, eHpecially, if tho sow be a young one, there will be two and sometimes as many as three pigs that are either dead at birth or are so un dersized that they are not worth rais ing. A three or four-year-old sow, farrowin;T two litters of pigs a year. will oftrtii give more profit than an average cow, and not cost so much to kaep nor so much labor to care for, The chief cure with a breeding sow after sh-j gt ts her gTowth is not to let her get too fut. She will have an enor mous appetite, Tor.t it should bo satis- lied, except when she is suckling her young, with the coursebt feed. Skiin- milk is goo:i, Lut not too much of it.

Attention has recently been directed to Jjie upplioution of electricity to farm iug operations, und the de-signing and introduction of suitublo dyuumo-clec-tric machinery for this purpose would no doubt be profitable both to the manufacturers and the funnci-a. Early in lHUJ, ttu electric power system was iur-tulh-d at '-he farm of the Agricultural Ea pci iuK-iit bUtivu, Auburn, Alu., the current being brought from the college laboratory by a lino three-quarters of a milo in length, conducted by the stu dents themselves. A ten horse power motor was nsed for ginning and press ing cotton, t hrashing grain, cutting up feed stuff, etc., and gave entire satis faction. In every community whete there is water power, electricity could be economically generated and used not only for the above mentioned purposes, bnt also to run saws, pinning machines, pumps, lathes, grindstones, older presses, sorghum mills, churns, sewing machiues in short, for everything re quiring power. What farmer would not welcome the exchange of smoky lamps for electrio lights? The arc light may also prove useful in market gar dening, some recent experiments made in France having shown that it has a marked effect in stimulating plant growth when sunlight is not to be hail. Where sufficient water power is not available, windmills might be nsed in connection with a system of storage batteries. Such a utilization of the wasted energies of nature would put off tho coining of tho coal famine that threatens future generations. Inven tive Age. CULTIVATION OF WILLOWS. Inqniries are received concerning the culture and marketing of willows for baskets and other goods. Notwith standing the basket willow does well in this country, five-sixths of the quan tity consumed is imported from for eign countries. The prevailing opinion that only low land is suitablo for willow cultivation may be the cause of so little attention being given to it. Low land is best, but high land is good. It is certainly far better than land where there are stagnant pools or too much water. For tho growth of willows the land must be treated similar to that in tended for tho planting of corn. It must be plowed in the fall and loosened np in tho spring. Iho field must be kept free of grass and weeds. Tho willow cuttings are planted in rows twelve inches apart. The rows should be three feet apart and a culti oator and hand hoe used to keep down tho weeds. Tho plnnts are enttings from two to three year old willows which are cut one foot long, measuring three-eighths to one-half inch in thickness. With a stick or iron rod holes aro made in the ground and a cutting introduced so that one or two buds remain above the ground. The first year only a few sprouts will spring from each cutting. Every year in March the switches are cnt close to the stem before the sap shoots into the plants. The switches are tied in bundles about .ten inches in diameter and placed in two or three inches of water, remaining there until tne latter part of -April until the sap has risen and small leaves and sprouts have appeared. This sap looBens the bark which can be removed very easily by being drawn through a wooden fork similar to a clothes pin. Willows must be dried in the open air. They are then bundled to weigh about fifty pounds per bundle. About 30,000 willow cuttings are necessary to plant an acre. The willow reaches the greatest production m the third year, and with proper care and good fertiliz ing it will continue to yield good re sults for many years. Dry peeled willows are worth five to eight cents a pound, and green willows with tho bark on them are worth S14 to 818 per ton. Farm, Field and Fire side. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES, Figs should suckle till ten weeks old. The flock enjoy summer as well as winter comforts. Have a syringe handy when the foal puts in an appearance. Are there wast places in the pasture? Give them a coat of manure. There are family traits and like nesses in sheep as much as "humans." No, no ! "Everybody can't be a good shepherd ; they ain't made that way." Bait and wood ashes in reach of hogs are beneficial. Good for horsos also. Never refuse a good cash offer when you have anything of the horse kind to sell. Many a man is a success as s wool grower and can't tell why to save his life. Feed oil and cotton-seed cake. It is best for sheep, for the furm and fot you. One thing can bo relied upon about sheep manure there are no weed Beed in it. A few short, sharp brushes develop speed much faster than miles of slow work. Havo somo pasture held in cose you need it further on when dry weather cornea The neglect given the chicks now cannot be overcome with good care by end by. Make yonr flock what your wife is the best, prettiest, and the envy of everybody. . Health, comfort, neatness are the things to be sought when building a ponhry house. Is your experience that cooked or soaked corn is better thun dry, hard corn for hogs? Little chicks enjoy fresh water to drink. Give them some, even though you provide milk for them. Soft coal cinders and charcoal from wood or cobs should be among the "ap petizers" kept on tho hog's bill of fare duily. The aluminum sulky, weighing from eighteen to twenty-five pounds, is said to be coming along with the two-miuuto trotter.

How insidiously it grows upon men. It steals in upon men as slyly as the fox, and when It gets a man In Its dill power it tosses him about like a strong lion. We once read ot a young rabbit that slipped into a garden ot cabbages. Tho garden was Inclosed with a wire fence. The young rabbit had a good and Jolly time In that garden as he feasted dally on the luscious onblmge. lie had heard of the danger of traps and wire fences, but he did not -seem to see any Im mediate danger around him, so he concluded to. remain all summer in that delightful place. The more he ate ef the cabbage the largor be grew. He never dreamed that he might grew too large to get out through the hole he came in at. lint that was 4ust precisely the danger that was soon to overtake him. He fattened dally uiKin the delicious food. He soon be came as large as a grown rabbit, but the only hole of escape didn't grow a Ut larger. One day he heard tho footfall of a uTan coming into bis garden, and be concluded he would slip out and disappear In the bushy swamp. So he ran to the nolo be came In at, and to ! and behold, his body had grown entirely too large to squeeze out through It. Now what? Ab, ho Is so surrounded by the wire net as to mil an easy prey to the owner ol tne garden, He was caught and killed. The application to the dram drinker Is easy. Every dram he drinks is putting up the wire fence ot the eontirmea habit or urunkQimess. His appetite is growing insensibly. Like the rabbit, he has a Jolly time for awhile and sees no sign of dnngcr. After a while some thing occurs which alarniB htm about his safely. He resolves to get out of his wire fence of dram drinking, but lo I he finds Uiat his liquor appetite has grown from a bahe to a giant, holding mm nrmly in tne grasp, This simple parable tells the story ot thou- snndswhoare to-day passive slaves to the wine cup.

The college "halls thut had been desertod at the llrt call of the bu gle were to be peopled again. The town's llfo was to be taken up again where it had been left off, and the people had turned face expectantly to the future, says a correspond ent oi the commercial liar.ette. Quick to see that the growth of the collego meant business opportunity to tho town, at this very time a man t'stsbllrfhed a saloon in the place. The news spread through the village, "a grog-shop hns been opened." You may Imagine tho sensation that it stirred grog-shop in Moore's Hill uud the worthy old president of the college in his catalogue referring to the community as a moral one, where "such a thins as a saloon would not bo tolerated for an Instant." The problems ot the dark days of the war, tho struggles with poverty at the hcarthside, equalled only by those other si ruggles where cannon roared, bad sharpened the wits and quickened the wills ot the women ol Moore's Hill. In 't!5 with them to hear was to think, to think was to act ;and the tlrst customer had scarcely entered Moore's Hill's new ouloon before the door was darkened by a woman's hgure. She was the Bpokesmau for her neighbors come to buy out the shop, and iu her hand she held the purchase money. "But I ain t hero to sell out. I've got to make a living, and I'm golngto make it. I've got as much right in Moore s Hill as you have, nnd money won't make me get out." Thus spoke the keeper. If the potency of money had failed to oust him, oue would oonclude thut the attempt was over, l'.y no means ! A private meeting was held, where was" evolved the raost'novel method .of war fare ever waged by womun against man. Next morning, before the astonished bar keeper could interpose, a Ala of solemn faced, determined women passed through the door of the saloon, and having arranged themselves deliberately about the room, drew out their work bag.i, and adjusted their sewing caps. A customer now an then strag gled in al the door. He glanced sheepishly along the walls at the awful sight thut stored him in the face, fumbled out a few remarks about the weather, the crops, and darted out into the fresh air. The village doctor peered through the door, and fled over the hills so fast that, tradition says, the lioys might havo played nine-pins upon his coat tails. Thus It went rather, oue should say, thus went the customers. At noon not a dram ol liquor hod leen sold. Tho women had determined to knit the saloou out of town ! Twelve brought a lresh relay of kulttihg womeu, but the saloon keeper, poor mat), bad no relief -force, audi be stood at his pobt all day long, unassisted. At six In the even ing the throng of the morning appeared again ; and the next morning the keeper savr onee more his friends of the afternoon. Twine be tried to smoke his unwelcome visitors away, thriee be tried to lock them in ; but he always failed. For days theuuoquul eonlll""t raged.

T&e knitting needle is mightier thun the demi john, or words to that effect ! Now to make this narrative ol a local legend romantic, oue need only add that the despised and persecu ted, the outwitted und outknitted vendor of liquors became oue of the best known vud most liked citizens of tuo community j bud such is the fact.

I used to think, when 1 read ot those charming aresset rci parasols and hats at Lord & Taylor's, that theirs must be one of those stores where a timid, nervous woman like myself, having but a few dollars to spare for a season's outfit, vStmld be of so little account that she would receive little attention : but when you said, in one of your letters a few months ago, that roods of the same quality were really cheaper there than elsewhere, because they sold more goods In their two stores than any other firm in New York, and that because they sold more they bought more, and consequently bought cheaper, I determined, it l ever went to new York. I would co to Lord & Taylor's. " That loncr-waitrd-for time came in the early autumn, and 1 found myself standing before that great entrance, with those won derful windows nt either side. I summoned my courage and entered, as 1 suppose tens of thousands of just such timid women as I have done before. M y fears were gone in an instant. The agreeable attention put me at my ease at once, and 1 felt as much at home ns thouch I were in the little country store where my people have traded lor nearly ouartcr of a centurv.
