FOWLS WITH SCARRY LEGS.
The thick scabs, or scales, on fowls’
legs are caused by a small mite which
burrows under the skin. To get rid
of these small pests the legs may be
washed in warm water and then well
greased with a mixture of Jard and
kerosene oil, rubbing the grease well
into the scales with a stiff brush. If
the roosts are kept greased in this way
the fowls vjll be free from all kinds

\ SALSIFY.
Salsify, better known by its more
common name of vegetable oyster,
although to be found in the catalogues
of all seedsmen, is not very generally
met with in farmers’ gardens,

3oam, well enriched and thoroughly
worked before the seed is sown.
method of culture is almost
the same as for carrots or parsnips.
The seed should be sown as early

Winter’s supply should be dug and

desired, be left in the ground like

LARGE AND DOFBLE-YEI.KED EGGS.
It is seldom that a double-yelked
egg will hatch, though instances have
been known in which such eggs have
produced chicks. When double-yelked
eggs arc found, it is to be regretted,
as they invariably indicate that the
hens are out of condition—too fat. A
lien in good laying condition will
never produce an egg other than of
the normal size peculiar to her brood,
and if fat, she is entirely unfitted for
laying. If a fat hen is killed she will
be found full of eggs, so to speak, but
they will be noticed to ho of all sizes,
and the poultryman will be amazed
over the fact that she did not lay ; but
examination will show that obstruc¬
tions of fat were the cause, and the
lien is then more profitable dead than
when alive.—[Farm and Fireside.

t t • EXPERIENCE WITH TOMATOES.
■
It lias been demonstrated emphati¬
cally that the tomato is very suscepti¬
ble to careful culture, and hereditary
influence predominates over the plant
ns a whole rather than over tho fruit.
Heavy manuring does not lessen pro¬
ductiveness, and nitrate of soda and
muriate of potash alone are not profit¬
able manures for tomatoes on poor
soil. Early setting brings curliness
of crop and fruitfulness. Cuttings are
not as good as seedlings. It is well to
trim the plants lightly in late summer.
Doubled flowered varieties bear ir¬
regular fruit, but a monstrous blossom
upon a young plant may not mean that
the plant will produce irregular fruit
generally. Dark, cool weather in
early autumn, and frosts are the worst
checks to largo tomato harvests. Start
the plants, therefore, as early as possi¬
ble; attend to the following essentials:
Careful selection and breeding, early
sowing, frequent transplanting to
bring stocky plants, and a rich, well
tilled soil. Varieties seem to run out.
The best sorts arc Jgnotum, Favorite,
Day State, Atlantic, among the reds;
Beauty, Mikado, among pinks, and
Golden Queen among the yellow va¬
rieties. The Ruby and Chemin arc
the most promising among the newer
sorts. The “Ithaca” is figured, as
also two views of fields with different
fertilizers.— [American Agriculturist.

GRASSES FOR HAY.
Of grasses there are five that arc
usually grown for hay, counting
clover. The latter is not strictly a
grass, but on account of its value for
pasturage and for hay it is considered
with them. The live are clover, tim¬
othy, orchard grass, red top and Hun¬
garian or millet. For feeding out on
the farm witii all classes of stock, red
clover stands at the head. It can be
sown in the spring on wheat or with
oats or by itself. It grows rapidly
and gives a good yield if the season is
at all favorable. In addition to mak¬
ing a good feed, whether pastured or
harvested and made into hay, clover
is one of flic best crops to aid in build¬
ing up the fertility.
Timothy is one of (lie best grasses
for hay for horses,and if hay is grown
for market timothy will return tho
best profit, as it sells at a higher price
than any other kind. As with all
grasses for hay the quality is largely
determined by the stage in which it is
cut and the manner of curing and
storing away. It stands next to clover
in feeding value. It can be sown iu
the fall either with wheat or alone, or
it can be sown in the spring. If the
seeding is done in the spring it will be
quite an item to sow clover and timo¬
thy as early as the season and the con¬
dition of die soil will permit.
lied top makes a good hay; it ripens
after clover and timothy and is hotter
adapted to growing on thin land than
either of the others. It can be sown in
tho usual way. Orchard grass on
reasonably good land makes a good
growth and yield, the only objection
being its inclination to grow in stools,
but this can be avoided by using plenty
of seed and securing a good even stand
all over the surface. It is rather
coarser than cither timothy or red top
and ripens earlier, being ready to cut
at almost the same time as clover. It
is not grown as extensively as the
other varieties, maybe because its value
has not been thoroughly tried.
Hungarian or millet makes a good
hay, especially for cattle or sheep, and
on good, rich soil, well prepared and
iu a favorable season, will give a largo
yield of hay. It is an annual and
must be sown each year, and is not a
profitable grass to grow on thin land.
It can bo sown the latter part of May
or tl e first of dune, and care must be
taken to prepare the soil in a good
tilth before planting. It is always
good economy with all grass, whether
sown for pasturage or hay, to use
plenty of seed, so that a good even
stand inay be secured, and the more
thoroughly this is done, with care in tho
preparation of the soil and the sowing
of the seed, the better the results.—
[Farm, Field and Stockman.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Broken rice can often be bought
cheap, and makes a good feed for
young poultry. It should be soaked
until soft.
Always plan to have a tight roof to
the chicken coops. In many cases it
will save considerable loss in sudden
showers.
It should not be forgotten that if tlie
most profitable returns are realized
from poultry at this time they must
have good care.
With nearly or quite all breeds of
poultry those of the same rolor slsould
be used so that (he progeny will be
uniform in size and color. As a rule
there is but little gain in attempting to
help chickens out of the shells; the
better plan is to let them alone.
A Comforting Reflection.
Tat wanted a position under the
government, and on being told that
he must be prepared to pass a civil
service examination, applied himself
faithfully to the necessary prepara¬
tion. Some time later his ambition
for public preferment seemed to have
deserted him.
“What is the matter, Pat?” asked
Ids former employer. “Couldn’t you
pass the examination?”
“I could that,” he replied. “I
answered every question on the paper.
But,” he added, his native wit coming
to the rescue, “I guess they thought I

Holes Made by Liglitnin CK •
“Did you ever see the diameter of a
lightning flash measured?” asked a ge¬
ologist of a writer for the Star.
“Well, here is the case which once
j inclosed a flash of liglitnin <r fitting it
exactly, so that you can sec just how
j big it was. This is called a ‘fulgurite’
or ‘lightning hole’, and the material it
is made of is glass. I will tell you
liow it was manufactured, though it
took only a fraction of a second to
turn it out.
“When a bolt of lightning strikes a
bed of sand it plunges downward into
the sand for a distance less or greater,
transforming simultaneously into
glass the silica in the material through
which it passes. Thus, by its great
heat, it forms at once a glass tube of
precisely its own size. Mow and then
such a tube, known as a ‘fulgurite,’ is
'ound and dug up. Fulgurites have
been followed into (lie sand by exca
vation for nearly thirty feet; they
vary iu interior diameter from tlie
size of a quill to three inches or more,
according to the bore of the flash.
"But fulgurites are not alone pro¬
duced in sand; they are found also in
solid rock, though very naturally of
slight depth and frequently existing
merely as a thin glassy coating on the
surface. Such fulgurites occur in
astonishing abundance on the summit
of Little Ararat iu Armenia. Tlie
rock is soft and so porous that bloc! vS

66 August Flower 99
For two years I suffered terribly
with stomach trouble, and was for
all that time under treatment by a
physician. He finally, after trying
everything, said stomach was about
worn out, and that I would have to
cease eating solid food for a time at
least. I was so weak that I could
not work. Finally on the recom¬
mendation of a friend who had used
your preparations
A worn-out with beneficial re¬
sults, I procured a
Stomach. bottle of August
Flower, and com¬
menced using it. It seemed to do
me good at once. I gained in
strength and flesh rapidly; my ap¬
petite became good, and I suffered
no bad effects from what I ate. I
feel now like a new man, and con¬
sider that August Flower has en¬
tirely cured me of Dyspepsia in its
worst form. James E. Dederick,
Saugerties, New York.
