Give these, a com plete cleansing; clean out all the nests, white wash the inside as well as the out side of them, and when dry, put in fresh hay that done, white wash the planks both inside and outside; break up some old mortar for the hens to pick if you have not any old mortar, provide them with lime where they can have free ac cess to it, besides this, supply them with ashes and sand to dust themselves in, feed them alternately with oats, corn, and buckwheat, and you may reasonable cal culate upon an early supply of eggs and spring chickens. Sowing Clover Serd. Sow over every acre of your land in wheat 12 pounds of clover seed. If the land which you have in wheat has been long in cul ture without having been limed or marl ed, you may rationally concludo that it : needs a dressing of one of these minerals, J so make your arrangements to give it a dressing this tall, as clover does not tnnve well in lands where lime is not present. If you use lime, give to your field 50 bushels per acre, if marl, 100 bushels. Sowing Plaster. As soon as tho clover begins to form their leaves in spring is the time to sow plaster over it; so, therefore, make your ariangements to give your clover field a bushel per acre . that quantity will increase the product f fifty per cent. j Implements and Tools of Husband- ry.
