A writer says: “ Let any one who
lias the carp of a liorse the cold frost
motnings, deliberately grasp in his
liaiid a piece of iron; indeed let him
touch it,to the tip of his tongue, and
tliep let him thrust the bit into the
mouth of .the horse, if he has the
heai t to do it. The horse is an ani
mal of nervous organization. His
mouth is formed of delicate glands
and tissues.
The temperature of the blood is the
same as in thp human being, and, as
in man, the mouth is the warmest
part of the body. Imagine, we re-
peatfthe irritation that would bp
caused the human being, and consider
that, if not to the same degree, still
the suffering to the animal is very
great; and it is not a momentary
pain. Food is eaten with difficulty,
and the irritation repeated day after
day causes loss of appetite and loss
of strength. Many a horse has be
come worthless from no other cause
than this. Before India rubber bits
were to be had, I myself used a hit

i JHsft&soc Beal says heibafc never
seen or heard of any orchard injured
by too frequent culture, but Admits
that in some of the States it may be
necessary after the trees have be
come well grown aijd. established
When to cultivate or not, he remarks,
depends. on~ severaf conditions. If
the color of the leaves is good, and
the trees bear well of fine fruit, they
arc doing well enough even if in grass.
Bht if the leaves arc pale, the growth
of the annual twigs much less than a
loo| in length on trees set twelve
years, and the fruit small and poor,
something is the matter, and they arc
suffering for the want of the plow,
harrow or cultivator, or heavy mulch
or coat of manure} f \/
Winter Plowing.
Winter ploughing is a good thing.
It upsets the insects, turns them up o Y !i!!r.'^ n j^K r
lrom v their warm quarters j beneath
cold quarters above. It throws up
the clay to he pulverizing it finely for
any crop. For oats and clover,
timothy, red-top, blue grass, orchard
grass, etc., by all means do winter
ploughing. Then in early spring you
can sow the seed at once, and not
wait till the ground is in condition to
plough, and then spend several days
what could better be done in any
open weather in winter. “ A word to
the wise is sufficient.”—Rural World.

Chufas.—The cultivation of chufas
is so simple it can be told in a few
words. Prepare the land as lor beets
or carrots, in two feet rows, ridging
very slightly. Open the drills two
inches apart. Keep them free from
weeds by shallow level culture. As
soon as the shoots appear they will
commence throwing out fibrous roots
the tubes are formed. These in time
send up new shoots, and thus the
plant continues to grow and spread
until the crop matures. About one
bushel of seed^fc required'to plant-an
»cre, and^a faip ^ield i^ fconv^ 150 to
200 bushelsT The tbps make excel
lent sheep pasture, and should be fed
off before the frost kills them. As a
food tor swine it is fully equal to corn,
and has the advantage of not requir
ing harvesting, other than what is
