In making fence do not forgot that the zigzag fence leaves many corners tor har boring weeds. (irowing pigs may he fed buttermilk and whey, but the principal food at this season j should lie grass. A row of raspberries 100 feet loug will give an abundant supply for an ordinary family. Plant a few red raspberries this fall. The summer is (he time to put the barn in coudition for winter. I'ainting should be done now, and the roof should be made tight and close. When -'scours" occur with animals feed nothing but cut hay and add a little salt to it. Diet is better than medicine. The breed is an important factor in stock raising. The breed adapted to the object sought will give better results aud at a lower cost proportionately. All hams should be so constructed as to allow the family eat to go anywhere under or iu it, as a precaution against rats and mice, which destroy more than may be supposed. Lettuce for late use may be sown every month. The plants will not be as thrifty as the earlier crops, hut will give a contin uous supply with but little cost. Sow the seed in rows or broadcast. The early turnips may now be cleared off and auother crop grown on the same ground for family use. T'se plenty of ma nure, pull up the grass und weeds if the plot is small, aud have the soil made deep and fine. liaising mules pays for the reason that it costs less to raise mules than horses, and, being hardier, there is less risk of loss. Where there is plenty of pasturage a young uiulo will secure nearly all the food he may require. The fodder lrom the early sweet corn is one of the best foods that eould be used for milch cows. The fodder is improved if cut and stored in the barn, so as to be kept clean and bright. If cut up with a cutter cattle will eat every portion of the stalk. Sheep arc not prolitable if kept as a "side business." A flock that is given the same attention as other stock, and kept as a business venture, will pay a larger profit for capital invested than any other class of stock, hut sheep pay best when bred for mutton rather than for wool. To secure flowers successively the bushes aud vines must be kept in flowering condi tion by not allowing the flowers to go to seed. When a plant produces seed it has accomplished its object, and every seed pod formed lessens the number of flowers. All flowers should be cut off before they begin to fade or change color. To secure young black-cap raspberry plants the canes are bent over aud tipped iuto the ground, with a clod resting there on to hold each cane iu position. These tips take root and the old vine is then cut off. The red raspberry reproduces itself by sending out shoots around the parent vine. They eau he taken up in the full and translated, or it muy be done very early iu the spring. . Old pastures thut are overrun with weeds can be best utilized for sheep, as they will eat off the young weeds and keep them down. Muuy weeds are valuable, so far as their use for food is concerned, but are undesirable iu place of regular salable crops. They can be utilized when young by pasturing sheep upon theui.and if weeds are not allowed to seed the grass will again take possession of the field. T'TOCK UAISINIi ANK IMPROVEMENT OF TUK FARM. " Whether the keeping of stock is for the purpose of conducting a dairy or for the sale of meat the farm itself is made more valuable, and for this reasou it is doubtful if n loss occurs in stock raisiug when the receipts und expenses are nearly equal. The farmer views only the amount he has received from sales, and compares it with the sum expended. If there is no profit the venture is considered a loss. I.ut it is a truth that all materials brought on a farm remain until removed, and though they may change in form yet they possess value for some purpose. The farmer who buys large amounts of bran, middlings and other refuse ol the mills brings on his farm that which remains as an investment until it can be conducted into some other sa'able product. Every ounce of food procured for the use of stock is converted into beef, mutton, pork, milk or manure. In the shape of meat aud milk the farmer disposes of it al an increased price, but the expenses are to be deducted. All thut remains on the farm unsold, after the cost of the whole has been secured iu the sales, is just as much a matter of profit as that whicli has been marketed, aud this surplus is the ma nure, which can be converted iuto food the next year. The farm is therefore increased in fertility and at the same time increased iu value, the profits being expended ou the farm as manure. If the value of the ma nure annually made iu this country could be estimated on some basis the figures would he startling, and they would show that the farmers create more wealth thau thi; estimates given in the crops only. It is an old proverb, "More slock more manure; uiore manure more crops; more cropt, more stock." There is, of course, a limit to be reached somewhere iu the in crease, but the farmer who engages in stock raising is sure to reach a point where his stock cannot dispose of the productions of the soil by producing meat and milk,anil his expenses are then reduced by reason of bis abundance and independence of the necessity of buying elsewhere, which in creases the profits from sales and gives the farm a greater value, due to its capacity of production, and iu that respect lie may be storing up the profit of each year to reap it at a future time i-i the shape of the surplus crops sold over and above the amount re quired for stock. The farmer whose farm is abundantly stocked with all the animals he can accommodate, and who sells his hay, is not as unwise as is sometimes charged, as the hay is simply a portion of the surplus which liu.i been added to the farm in the manure, aud which now be comes profit. —Do not be induced to take any other preparation if you have decided to buy Hood's Sursaparilia. —They have a wild cat iu a saloon at Tcxarkaua, aud they want some one to briug iu his dog aud have a little fun. The cat has killed every fighting dog for thirty miles arouud, aud is so louesuuiu for the want, of something to do that she is losing flesh. —A story is told of a good little girl who, for two or three nights, refused to say her prayers. One night lirr papa covered his face with his hands and said: "It makes papa feel sick to think Margaret won't say her prayers." "Papa feel sick?" "Yes, dear." "Papa better take casscr oil." The ! subject of prayers was uo longer discussed that night. —s.">oo reward for an incurable case of chronic Nasal Catarrh offered by the man ufacturers of Ilr.
