The illustrations show ground plb
and iile elevation for a ling barn that
mg'it to meet ordinary needs. I buve
drawn the plan to make 12 pens. It
will require only a little more money
than putting in biz, and it will 1
funnd, I think, very advantageous.
The pens are eight by ten feet, whh
a Kix-foot passage between. A floor
opens from i;uU pen into the lot. The
pen juljaeent to tlie boiler can be con
nected with the boiler, and will give
titVujnt lient to wash hogs in the
cohU-st weather. I have also rhown
place for feed bins and t-tairwn.v (up
per left hand corner), and the farmer
can u.-e the f-piu-e fi r tv. horc tails,

daughter and she with him. The mas

himself, nnd his present fortune and
social position did not warrant expec

young printer had been confident and
serene until, na mg itecic.cii mat mere

Then he had a ainfii! surprise. The

Nocroprespi.nils more readily tnood
soil and cultivatiou than beans. The
soil best adapted to it in a light, rich,
well drained loam, which was mil ml red
for the previous crop. If too rank
manure is used it is apt to make the
plant run too much to vino, llcans aie
extremely sensitive to both cold nnd
wet, and it is useless to plant them
before the ground has become dry and
warm. The largest return will result
from planting in drills from two to
three feet apart, and leaving the plants
two to sAk inches apart in the row. I'p
to the time of blossoming they should
have frequent shallow cult ivation, but
any cutting of the roots after the
plants come into' bloom is likely to
cause the bhissoms to blast and so cut
oil' the crop, Keiueniher that the cul
tivation of beans should always be
very shallow, atul that it is useless to
expect a crop from n field so poorly
prepared as lo need deep st irringaft er
planting. Varieties should he selected
so as to give a succession both of st ring
and green shelled beans. The wax
podded varieties will degenerate inlo
u mixture of green and wax podded
plants unless (here is constant at
tention given to the removing- of any
green podded plants which may ap
pear in the seed crop, and the con
stant selection of plants of the highest
type for stock seed. Hence, it is espe
cially important to use seed from re
liable sources only. Midland Fanner.

The most marked variation in the
rharacter of the cow pea is to be
found in the color of the seed, which
may be of tiny of the shades of black,
ivhite, red, brown, yellow, gray, green
and purple, or they may be speckled
with two or more of these colors. In
shape they may be round, flat or
broad kidney shaped or flattened at
the ends. The period of ripening re
quired by different varieties varies
from CO to more than ?00 days, and
the same variety will ripen seed in
less time from late than from early

EFFECTS 0? CROSSING.
Wkm Paaltrr Ratarra Practice
LarsHr, the Kraalt la Nearly Al
wri Failure.
Crossing the breeds has never given
good results, although a great many
try it, and will continue to do so. In
nearly all cases when the attempt is
made to blend the best qualities of two
iifferent breeds the offspring is not
equal to either parent, hence in the
course of a few years there will be no
uniformity, nnd the stock reverts to
the scrub. Too much mixing is no bet
ter than keeping scrubs. It ia right
and proper to grade up a common flock
with pure breeds, but to cross two pure
breeds is a mistake. Where crossing is
practiced largely, as with poultry, the
result is nearly always a failure, there
being no niKformity of color, size or
Inying qualities. I'nre breeds are real
ly the results of judicious crossings
and selections, nnd cannot be improved
upon except after years of care and se
lection of the best individuals. The
best possible security, short of the
ictual test, that any bird or animal
will produce its characteristics in its
iffspring is that these charaeterist ics
ire known to have belonged ton long
'ine of ancestor. Individual merit
ind ndaptat ion to our needs should be
'.he first nnd most important points of
selection. The character of the ances
tors should be considered. It is not
icces sary to endeavor to determine the
diaraeter of any one of the ancestors
for when pure breeds nre used one gets
it once the. results of selection for
-ears by those who worked in the past
'rossitif destroys the work that others
lave done before. Farm and Fireside
