cmnso oats.
Oats should be out for fodder at
•bout the same stage of growth that
other grasses are out, which is when
in bloom or very soon after, writes a
correspondent. If eut too early the
fodder will be hard to cure, and if cut
after the kernels have attained muoh
size the fodder will be poorer, beside
being liable to mnoh injury from rats
and mice in the mow in winter. This
rule holds good millet'and for time of cutting
oats, barley, wheat for fod¬
der. Bye should be cat before it
blooms, as it becomes tough and un¬
palatable very rapidly after i it xeaohes
the blooming stage. Wh en the weather
is favorable I have found it well to
let these coarsW, heavf fodders lie a
day or so to wilt after catting

HAKINO AN ASPARAGUS BSD.
Of aQ the erops for the market gar¬
den, especially if conveniently situat¬
ed to a large city, asparagus is one of
the most satisfactory, because it is
easy to cultivate, easy to gather and
easy to sell. The land should be heav¬
ily manursd and\ worked up to a
depth of at least tea inohea. Trenches
are then opened up to a depth of nine
inches with a plow. The plants should
be set about three feet opart in these
trenches, and enough earth packed
about the roots to oover them well,
and the harrow will complete the job,
throwing to a little additional earth
upon them as it to drawn lengthwise
over the rows. This work may be done
to the fall or spring. At the end of
ihe season the trenches will be
partiaHy covered in and during level the
next four may be cultivated
leaving the roots eight or nine inches
below tityg surfaoe of the ground. should
Every spring the whole surfaoe
receive thorough cultivation with the
plow amd harrow, and be well ma¬
nured. Mr. Garfield, of Michigan,

RAISING CHICKENS IN SCMMBB.
Does it pay to hatch chicks after
the weather turns warm and the answered prices
go down? This can only be
by looking over the prices offered
during previous years and estimating

food should cost almost nothing. If
grace, seeds and insects are abundant,
and the chicks can have access to a run
or field where they can assist them¬
selves after they’toe abandoned by the
hen that hqtobed them, the cost will
at least be at a minimum. Experi¬
ments have demonstrated that the
food required to produce a pound
of poultry meat should not ex
ceed five cents. * In the summer sea¬
son three cents will cover the cost of
the inorease<of each pound fn weight.
If the chick reaches two Sand a half
pounds weight the cost for food
should not exceed eight cents. 1 Will
it not paylhen to cents? expend Granting eight cents that
to procure fifty
the chick may sell for only ten profit cents
a pound, there is still a large
in proportion to food consumed.
Many farmers are frightened at the
low ptioes without considering the low
cost of food and the small amount of
labor required, and they oease
ing chicks after warm weather sets in,
which is the very time they are in the
best condition for meeting suooesa. It
will be worthy of an experiment this
summer to hatch a large Humber for
the market.
