MISCEL! ANEOIS
Agricultural.
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.

—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,
