HOUSE, FARM AND GARDEN.
We Invito cnmmunimtlnim frntti nil person" who are.
Interested In mattim properly beloioriiiK t thlsdu
partmeiit. Use of Forest Loaves.
Every yenr we find freiin'iit exhorta
tions to fiuim-rn to wive anil utilize the
fallen loaves In the woods and In by
places around the farm. Ho fur an my
experience goes, this practice scarcely
pays the labor It reqnlreH. Wood leaven
of theinHelves nre of comparltlvely little
value us manure. They are good absorb
ents for urine and other nitrogenous
manure, but on all grain farms there is
usually more than enough straw and
other refuse for this purpose. Btraw Is
a better absorbent than leaves, and l
richer In the elements of plant food.
Even If leaves were ever ho valuable, It
would be cheaper to get them In their
decomposed form as leaf mould. A man
might work all day gathering leaveB
which when rotted would not make as
much mould as he could dig in the woods
In twenty minutes. Themunurial value
of this mould is less than the average of
good soil in well manured fields. There
Is a difference In leaves, those from some
varieties being more vuluable than
others, but generally they contain little
phosphoric acid, little nitrogenous mat
ter, and depend for their value chiefly on
the carbonaceous matter which they con
tain. Exceptingon light sandy or gravel
ly Bolls, carbon Is seldom lacking. Farm
ers often speak of the advantage of clo
ver as furnishing vegetable mutter; but
if clovcrdld nothing but this it would
bo in fur lower repute than it is.
As an ubsorbent, leuf-mould from the
woods Is more valuable than the un rot
ted leaves. Hut It Is not worth more
than muck, which Is only another form
of mould. Its mechanical effects on the
soil are excellent ; but unless from local
ity land is very valuable, it will not pay
to haul vegetable mould in quantity
sufficient to change the mechanical
character of the soil. It requires a heavy
dressing of the strongest nitrogenous
manures to make poor soil rich. Much
more will it need larger application of
less fertile material. A man may work
for six months gathering leaves, and
not have enough to fertilize an acre.
The only practical mode of increasing
vegetable mutter in the soil Is to grow it
there and thus make nature help in the
work. Whatever leaves fall upon the
soil or are brought there by the winds
will help the bind, but more as a mulch
than for its manurial value. I have no
doubt that where soil is deficient in vege
table matter it will pay to leave long
stubble to favor catching and holding
whatever Is blown over the surface. In
any other way there Is rarely much
advantage In directly adding to the veg
etable matter in the soil.
Sensible Advice
Professor Hilliman, of New Haven,
recently closed a .Smithsonian lecture by
giving the following sensible advice to
young men : "If, therefore, you wish
for a clear mind and strong muscles,
and quiet nerves, and long life, and
power prolonged in old age, permit me
to say, although I am not giving a tem
perance lecture, avoid all drinks above
water and mild infusions of that fluid ;
shun tobacco, opium, and everything
else that disturbs the normal state of the
system ; rely upon nutritious food, and
mild, diluted drinks, of which water is
the base; and you will need nothing
beyond these things, except rest, and
due moral regulations of all your powers,
to give you long,happy,and useful lives,
and a serene evening at the i.ioae."
(ST It is a matter of little consequence
as to the acerage which is put in, in tub
or that grain, in this or that crop; it
matters very little how much a farmer
raises on his farm the important ques
tion is how much he raises per acre.
The farmer who raises one hundred
bushels of wheat on four acres will be
come a well-to-do, independent farmer,
if not a rich man, if he does not meet
with extraordinary misfortune ; but the
farmer who raises one hundred bushels
of wheat on twelve acres is on the di
rect road to poverty, and undoubtedly
will become poor if he lives long enough
-and raittes wheat enough.
0Corn-meal as everybody knows, is
the best and cheapest feed for fattening
all kinds of poultry. The meal should
be raw one day, and made a stiff dough
and cooked the next. Feed every four
hours through the day, beginning early
and ending late, and give as much at a
time as will be eaten immediately, and
no more. Reason as plentifully with
salt as persons do their food, and add a
slight sprinkle of cayenne occasionally.
Thesie' condiment serve a double pur
posethat of improving the appetite
and digestion and the quality of the
flesh for the table.
