FERTiLIZATION.
Maw llritwn Farmer* Can Mukc UoiN
Wlthoa TMrh Expense.
Asa rule khti Luniers ol Illinois, and
probably of the entire West, have paid
but little attention to either making,
laving or using manure. Heretofore
the rich, black soij has not seemed
to require manuring, but the time has
rvideotly now come when this must be
attended to. I have just met a friend
from my old home in Western New
York, who says that the farmers there
now use a prepared fertilizer made of
bones (ground to a powder) and blood.
w"hich is drilled into the wheat land
hi the spring, at a cost of one dollar
and twenty-live cents per acre. West
ern farmers would hardly think they
could alTord to spend - one dollar and
twenty-five cents per acre in manuring
their crops: The price of crops would
not justify the outlay, aven if enough
could bo obtained to go over even a
portion of the land. We must therefore
try and make and sane all the manure
we "can to use on our lands. If we could
‘put a good portion ,of,our tillable land
in wheat ami oats, we. eouM use the
Waw for bedding in the horse stables
and rhon cover the barn-yards, so as to
make a large amount of manure,. I'iua
is done at the East, where all stpyk is
kent either in barn or close yards pro
tected by shexla. and the straw if spread
over the whole suriace so as to make it
dry and comfortable at the same tipie
fneki- a large amount of manure. But
nlilfois Can - not raise'wlieat. and
our only supply is the oat straw. In
about four caso< out of six our farmers
thrash their oats in the field where
they grow; the straw is stacked there,
and soiiie little part is drawn to the
barn and used for bedding horses, bull
have never seen a case where any *t
tempt was made to cover the barn
ykrd. I know of one small farm wlicre
five straw stacks are standing on thirty
ahves, and yet these stacks ara
within sixty rods of the barn-yard.
They are left, to settle and decay
by time; and a tpng takes* to©.'.
It is iU*erquite donirhoti to stack the’
hay hi the meadow at some distance
from the barn, and almost always quite
an amount is left at the stacks, and
some of the stacks are frequently left to
not down by time and the elements. ,
Now this is all wrong. All the hay,
oats and wheat, when raised, should be
brought to th barn; the oats to
stacked as to stack the straw in a part
of the barn-yard, and the hay close by,
if not put in the barn. Then, as the
winter advances, the straw can, if not
fed and used in the barn, be spread in
the barn-yard, and by spring a larger
body of manure will have been made.
This can be done even if the stock are
V
allowed to run at large over the pasture
and stalk-fields when the ground is so
frozen ae to admit of it, and there if
generally a large portion of the winter
season when tfiey milst be kept off the
Holds. Then the straw and hay can be
used. It is my opinion thßt the time is
not far distant when stock in the West
will be confined to barn-yards and win
tered, as in the East and in colder
northern countries. Then all the
manure made by the farmers’ stock can
be saved and used where needed most.
Eastern farmers buy steers to winter,
stabled in barns, for the purpose of
making manure. There every thing
raised on the farm is brought to the
barn —wheat, oats, clover, hay (for
seed) and beans —and when thrashed
is all saved and fed oat to stock, besides
the cofp-stalks and hay.' When spring
comes the barn-yard is covered two
feet deep. It may be said the Western
farmer can ? t do thii; perhaps not fully,
but he can certainly make U9e of all he
has. If this be followed up for a few
years, ther farmer will be surprised in
two ways: first, by the amount of
manure he has made, and second, by
the incf*ease in his crops—both corn
and hay.—-Cor. Uhicnsjo 3\mcs.

FEEDING stock.
An Affrtaultaral Science of No Mean IS*
DorUmee.
There is much to learn in the proper
fattening of animals. The most im
portant truth is that he who keeps hh
stock growing and fattening from
weaniug ‘ time until ready for the
butcher, or, in the case of horses des
tined for labor, who so feeds as to best
develop the muscular powers, is he who
makes the most profit; and he rnuat
feed to develop for the labor to be per
formed or other special quality re
quired.
The cow destined for breeding and
for milk, the mare which is to produce
superior foals—any animal, in fact, in
tended for breeding—may not be un
duly pushed. Nature must have time
to fill up and round out every part of
the frame to produce the perfect ani
mal of its kind The animal destined
for slaughter may be pushed from birth
until ready for the butcher’s block to
the full limit of its digestion, and with
profit; but it would be quite unprofit
able to follow this course with an ani
mal intended for breeding. How many
follow this discriminating plan? How
many exercise the common judgment
to bring about each separate result in
the best manner? Yet either ultimate
end is brought about by common-sense
feeding, though carried out differently.
The yCung and growing animal must
have a variety of food natural to its
wants, but the animal destined to be
worn out in hauling, loads, driving on
the road or for a fast pace on the
racing-course must be developed more
slowly as to bone, sinew and muscle
than that intended for the butcher, for,
as fiesh to be eaten, the more equally
the lean is interspersed with fat the
more valuable the meat. This is best
attained’ by giving more fat-forming
food than would be necessary to the
animal intended for milk or labor. In
the one case the most profit is gotten
by a course of feeding that will bring
the animal to the block in the shortest
possible'tftat*, iu connection with such
exercise as shall keep the body in per
fect health, so that the digestion may
be perfect. In the other case exercise
enough must be given not only to con
serve health, but the muscles must have
Bxercise enough to strengthen the sys
tem in every part. The tendency to
fat must be kept down by strong exer
cise, for only in this way can perfect
development be accomplished. Chi

CGNCfeRNiNG STRAW.
ft* CiiniH*ai Value as an Almost ludi.
peusalile Fertilizer,
Although straw is looked upon as al
most valueless except as bedding, Jet
it requires a great amount of food from
the soil to produce it. True, the car
bon D taken from the air, and also re
turned to it when eliminated from the
constituent elements of straw, but
that which comes from the sou
must he again returned to it,
or it will suffer loss to that
extent. If we burn one hundred pounds
of straw we derive from four to lUe
pounds, or nearly one hundred pounds
of ash from a ton of straw. This ash
contains soda, lime, potash, phosphor
ic acid, magnesia, sulphur, iron, silica
and chlorine. The nitrogen is dri\en
off by combustion, while but ver\ lit
tle carbon remains, which is in a state
of combination. Considering the differ
ent kinds of straw, we find of potash
about 0.40 per cent, in the straw of
wheat, and il.oO per cent, in the straw
of the bean. At a glance the supposi
tion would be that as the proportion of
potash in wheat straw is much less than
in bean straw, the latter was more val
uable, but the value of a substance does
not depend upon a single material, for
wheat straw contains seven times as
much silica, which, though not so valu
able, is returned to the soil in the ash
in a more available form for a succeed
ing crop. While barley straw contains
a larger proportion of potash than oat
straw, the latter has more soda. Corn
fodder contains a larger proportion of
potash than pea straw, while bean
straw contains twice as much as either,
yet the rule has been that beans and
peas should be fertilized alike, whiish
is a mistake, the peas preferring a larg
er quantity of lime than the beans.
All kinds of straw, therefore, differ
from each other in their chemical com
position, yet the average farmer does
not consider one more valuable than
the other kinds. As straw possesses
value according to its mineral matter,
it is evident that, whenever it is sold,
or removed from the farm, it carries
off the elements derived from the soil,
and the farm can be rendered as sterile
by the removal of such material as it
can by the sale of more valuable crops.
Straw should be utilized for feeding, as
it is excellent when balanced by grain,
or when used as bedding it should be
cut fine. There is too much silica iu
some kinds of straw to permit of its
rapid decomposition, but this difficulty
is overcome when the straw is so man
aged as to mingle it intimately with
, the manure. If several kinds of straw
be finely cut and used together, the
variations of their ingredients will
sometimes form almost a complete
fertilizer, as the nitrogen is not lost in
the manure heap as is the case when
the straw is reduced to ashes when
burned.— Farm, Field and Stochnath.
LIVE-STOCK.
If* Improveuu-nf and Hearing the Ruud
to Prosperity.
English agricultural journals, while
praising the great average yields per
acre of the grain crops of that country,
are constantly urging the extension of
live-stock breeding. The great average
yields of grain in Great Britain are only
possible by the liberal use not only of
barn-yard manure, but of commercial
fertilizers in connection with the most
precise cultivation. The English have
also brought the breeding of animals
to the highest perfection—a perfection
nowhere else reached except in the
United States and Canada.
The reason why the English press so
urgently advise the extension of live
stock is, that In the cultivation of
ceroal grain, even with the obstacles
thrown about the importation of for
eign products, the profits are growing
less and less year by year. Iu this the
English landlords are in the same cate
gory as are those of countries where
the price of land is too high for the
cultivation of the coarser grains. The
soil must be used for special crops else
rente must full. It is well known that
this has been the case of late years, and
during the last year concessions have
been made to the extent of from eight
een to thirty per cent, on rents, not
only in Ireland but in England.
Live-stock is the basis of successful
agriculture in all countries, since with
out manure there can be no crops utir
less on virgin soil; and the higher the
cultivation the better the manure pays.
It would seem that England had al
ready carried the breeding and feeding
of live-stock to the full capacity of the
country. England buys largely also of
our coarse grains and oil-cake to feed
to animals. If the live-stock industry
is still further increased England must
call upon us still further for feeding
stuff*. To this our farmers will not ob-
ject, of course. If England and the
Continental countries see lit to throw
obstacles in the way of our sending
live-stock and meats to their countries,
well and good. We can not help our
selves, except that by common consent
we can refuse to buy gewgaws of them.
In the meantime there can be no good
reason who not only England but every
other country should push its live-stock
interests to the utmost. That is what
Western farmers certainly should do.
It is cheaper to send the manufactured
product to market than the raw ma
terial, and the manure is worth as
much to Western farms as to any other
land. No fanner ever got rich raising
the coarse grains for market, aud only
in a very limited degree can they so be
used. Feed the grain on the farm and
sell stock. —Chicago Tribune.

southern Forests*
Tins Great Timber Reserve of America
amt Its Commercial Valae.
Not among the least of the great un
developed resources of the Southern
States is its forest wealth. These for
ests in large stretches of country are
in a primeval condition. The Southern
maritime pine belt extends from the
thirty-sixth degree of north latitude in
a narrow belt along the coast varying
from one to two hundred miles in
width as far south as Tampa bay. It
stretches across the State of Horida
and along the coast of the Gulf of Mex
ico to the Mississippi bottoms. Beyond
these alluvial bottoms on the wist it
occupies both sides of Red river and
gradually mingles with the deciduous
forests of Arkansas and Texas. These
forests are without any underbrush and
are composed for the most part of the
long-leaved pine, which furnishes a
class of lumber that is growing in de
mand in every part of the United
Stat s. Throughout the alluvial and
coast regions of this belt are found
the live oak, the palmetto, the gum,
water-oaks, hickories and ash. All
these trees attain lordly dimensions,
and the live-oak forests are considered
the finest in the world and form a
grand reserve for the ship-building in
terests of the country. The deciduous
for sts of the Atlantic plain and the
Mississippi basin are noted for their
richness and variety. Upon the slopes
of the Alleghany mountains, Northern
and Southern species occur, only sep
arated by altitude. The balsam fir
(abies Fraseri), found so abundantly
upon the crests of these mountains, oc
cur nowhere else in the South, while
lower down the white pine commingles
with the tulip tree, or poplar, the hem
lock, the wild cherry ami the chestnut.
Many of these trees here attain a size
nowhere else found on the continent.
The forests of the alluvial plains of the
Mississippi and Red rivers are not less
varied. Almost every tree of commer
cial value may be found, and among
them the red gum, which for beauty of
finish is hardly surpassed by any wood
found in the United States.
Not the least important in commer
mercial value are the red cedar forests
of Middle Tennessee. In many places
in the central basin of the State cedar
trees form almost the only growth.
Wilson, Rutherford and MarshaH Coun
ties in Tennessee are particularly noted
for their profusion of cedar forests.
These forests are now supplying amine
of wealth to their owners. Ash, poplar,
beech and walnut are also abundant in
the central basin. All along the slopes
of the Cumberland mountains, and es
pecially on the western slope, poplar
and walnut attain a prodigious size.
One walnut tree was cut in Crow Creek
valley that measured eight feet in di
ameter and seventy-five feet to the first
limb. Wild cherry is also found iu
abundance. The western valley of the
Tennessee river is very heavily tim
bered with white oak and poplar,
while back from the river eastward, in
the uplands, are the finest forests of
chestnut oak to be found iu the State
In the counties of Humphreys, Hick
man, Perry, Wayne and Hardin these
forests cover many hundred square
miles, and have scarcely been touched.
On the western side of the river many
large swamps occur, where the cypress
tree flourishes in princely magnitic.enco.
Perhaps the heaviest forests in Tennes
see are found in the counties of Übiorv
Dyer, Lauderdale, Tipton and Shelby,
and especially those parts of these
counties’ above the flood-plane of the
Mississippi river where the bluff-loam
or loess formations occur. Upon this
soil the largest poplars and white oaks
of the South are to be found, trees
having the largest girth with the long
est bodies. When Captain Eads was
constructing the grand railroad bridge
across the Mississippi river at St. Louis,
he had occasion to use some pieces of
timber over one hundred feet long of
large size and strength. His requisi
tion could be supplied from only one
place in the United States, and that
was from Obion County, Tenn. We
have barely indicated in this article
the character and extent of Southern
forests. They constitute the groat tim
ber reserve of America, and a very few
years will form an clement of wealth
which the present generation can not
appreciate. —Nashville American.
THE JERSEY.
The Shape* and Color* of This Inevitable
t'emsle Garment.
Jerseys will continue to be worn, tk
new shapes fitting so perfectly that the
modistes will put their veto more than
ever upon them. A ruby-colored silk
jersey has a deep passementerie of gar
net and gold beads forming a tied
fringe that falls about an inch below
the edge. The Sleeves are loose at the
wrist, lined with surah, edged with tho
passementerie and filled in with a puff
ing of gold net, which also finishes tho
neck, that is tied with streamers of
rnby-colored satin ribbon woven with
gold threads. The jersey is buttoned
with small garnets set in gold.
A white silk one is embroidered la
small bunches of wheat, and fjpjshed
with a heavy gold lace in guipifre pat
tern. A n olive silk one has thfc white
silk vest embroidered with rosebuds.
A crystal bead forms the center of each
bud. and they glisten like, dewdrops on
the leaves. Natty jerseys in wool are
made with a loose coat front, trimmed
with gold buttons and worn over a Fe
dora front of bright rod, with a low
bodice of velvet matching the shade of
the coat, which in this ease should be
dark blue or black. Red ones are
shown with black buttons and black
velvet vest, collar and cuffs. A skirt
of camel’s hair, with long drapery lined
and turned over at one side with the
color that forms the trimming of the
jersey, makes a useful morning cos
tume. —Chicago Inter Ocean.
