Diminish Your Fencing.
We commend to farmers the sug
gestion whether in place of buying
material for a new fence, it would
not be better to remove a fence that
is doing no good. Perhaps you have
none ; perhaps each one of your in
terior fences is needed. If not needed
it is doing you harm. It is protect
ing weeds, it is perhaps giving home
to woodchucks and mice; it is occu
pying land that might be growing
grass. We have in mind a farm
where all interior and roadside fences
are removed, except pasture fences.
The grass fields do not extend only
so far as where the roadside fence
ordinarily is, but to the wheel tracks,
thus giving the owners a strip of
land more than twenty feet wide,
and making the roadway smooth and
beautiful. The mowing machine,
leaves the field at any point, the load

the land is plowed the furrow is

have in mind does not lie along a

How Prize Butter is Made.
The dairy consists of three hun
dred cows, mostly of native stock.
The average distance of milk brought
not to exceed two miles; received
once a day, at a temperature of from
sixty to sixty-five degrees. The
principal feed is blue grass, red top
and timothy. In the fall, quantities
of green sowed corn are fed at night.
The milk is set in uncovered vats,
with four inches of water space on
sides and bottom, through which
spring water constantly flows to hold
the temperature of the milk at sixty
degrees. Tlte milk stood forty-eight
hours, kept sweet and made a good
quality of skim cheese. The cream
was kept forty-eight hours, when it
was slightly sour ; churned in a re
volving dash churn, and required
about one hour’s churning, and the
butter gathered iu lumps the size of
peas. The buttermilk was li awn off,
and cold water poured iu to rinse
thoroughly. The butter was then
taken out aud salted, 1 hree-fourths
of an ounce to the pound, the salt be
ing worked in so thoroughly as tore-
quire very little working the second
time. The batter worker used is tho

Leprosy.
New York, July 26.—Two cr.se*
of genuine leprosy are reported in
the Blackwell’s Island Hospital, One
of them is tco sore to move, sa\y.
when it is positively neces-arv. The
other, although much further ad
vanced in tie disoas*, and almost
sure to waste away within another
year, is at present as lively as *
cricket, but being loathed even by
the worst syphilitic patients in the
same ward, keeps to his corner, and
sees no more of the outside worU
than he can get by looking from tj»e
window, which commands a view otf
the east channel of the river, wirtt
the ding; bsick walls and black
chimney-stacks of Hunter’s Point and
a few Astoria villas in the distance.
Sould it be desired to drain a de
pression in a field where the subsoil
is of a clayey or hard pan nature,
thus preventing the sinking of the
water, and the lay of the land is
unfavorable for ordinary draining,
first dig a hole aa if for a well,
through the impervious stratum at
the bottom, fill it up with refuse
stone, remove the excavated earth so
as to allow a sort of basin and a free
accc 's of water to the pit, and stand
ing water will never injure the grass
crop in that part of the field. In
this manner many comparatively
useless pieces of land may he utilized
and made to produce a good crop,
besides there are on nearly every
farm immense lots of stone, useless
for building purposes, that can he
made to answer a good purpor e in
this way.
If the dirt is infested with insects
and the plants dying, remove the
plant from the pot, shake the dirt
carefully from the roots, get good,
rich, fresh earth and repot the plant.
If all the wagon scales that tlie
Fairbanks Scale Company have built,
were placed in one continuous line
the result would he a plank road
from Boston to Philadalpliia. This
fact carries considerable weight, with
it.
These are the first lepers ever ad*,
milted to this hospital, and they have
been there only a short time. One
of them, Abraham Brown, is a Mew
Yorker by birth, and is fifty-four
years ol 1. The other, Emilio Treu-
al, is a native of Santiago de Cuba,
and only nineteen years old. Trerail
