FOB FARM AND GARDEN
ASHES AS A FERTILIZER.
Ashes are too much wasted by many
farmers who do not appreciate their im¬
portance as manure. They are among
the best fertilizers that can be applied
either directly to tho land or mixed
with the compost. They are beneficial
to all crops, and this has been found to
apply evon to coal ashos, which in
themselves havo but liltlo material
value; but the reason thnt even these
are so useful is that they absorb and re¬
tain moisture. Independent of the
potash that wood ashes contain nnd
which makes it such a valuable manure,
an application of it renders tho ground
porous and keeps it cool and moist.
Farmers enunot lx> too careful to save
aud spread it over their lunds. Upon
sandy lands wo consider it equally as
valuable, pound for pound, ns guano.
About one hundred huihels of wood
ashes per acre is a fair proportion to
apply on light soils. —A. Y. Herald..
l ARE OF HOUSES’ LEGS.
he open winter has made necessary
more frequent cleaning of the foot and
legs of hors#? much used on muddy
roads. Iu doing this tlm use will be
found of tho long hair which grows on
the fetlocks and further up on the legs.
This protects the skin from injury, the
mud adhering to tho hair and leaving a
free space between, through which the
natural perspiration can escape. To
cut off this hair, as is sometimes tin-
wisely done is to leave the legs unpro¬
tected. The mud comes in contact with
the skin, the pores of which it clogs,
isnti 1 the skin is made tender and, peels
off when the mud crust is removed.
Those sores are called 1 ‘scratches.’’
Thorough bathing of these sores to re¬
move all dirt and then covering them
with some ointment to exclude air, is
the remedy. But prevention is better
than cure. If horses’ legs are thorough¬
ly cleaned aftor the mud has dried, and
the natural protection of the leg is left,
there need be no fear that they will be¬
come diseased .—American Cultivator.
TO KING A BULL.
Borne one writing to a correspondent
wants to know how to "ring a bull,”
and is advised 1% got a "canular und
trochar,” one to pinch tho hole nnd the
other to hold the ring. Now in our es-
limatiou the man, who cannot ring a
young hull or an old one, for the matter
of that, with a simple pen-knife, has no
busiuess on tho cattle farm. Ho ought
to seek somo other occupation. The
young hull should be securely tied or
thrown, and it makes no difference
which, so that the operator can work
with him. Lay his head fiat on the
earth, or securely against a post, thou
run the knife through tho cartilage that
separates tho two nostrils, pass tho ring
through the hole; close it and insert
the screw and the job is dono. ■ If you
cannot do this then hire somo man who
can, hut if you cannot you should have
a herdsman who cun. A man without
nerve is out of place on a breeding
farm .-.American Dairyman.
HE CELLAR AND THE 'WINDOW.
It seems almost impossible to havo a
successful window garden, unless one
has a good cellar ns an adjunct. When
we say a "good collar” it should by all
means he dry; light enough to allow
one to work comfortably und should
vary little from 40 degrees, The first
and chief uso of tho collar is as a store '
room for storing through tho winter
p ants used for decorating tho garden,
veranda, etc., in summer. Agaves and
other sub-tropicals: such plants are to
he kept in a stato of suspended anima.
tion. The chief danger is from over-
watering. Do not let. tho sod get
"dust-dry,” hut ho careful not to make
it too wet. Besidos plants, store, in
the cellar roots, soil, sand, gravel, moss,
aud whatever else is likely to he needed
during the wiutor. Gladiolus, bulbs
dahlias, cannas and other roots kotp in
excellent condition in a cool, dry col-
lar. Tigridias havo to he kept in Q
warm, dry place, and carefully guarded
against mice and rats, which will make
short work of them if within their
reach. Boxes aro more convenient for
storing than barrels, aud there should
be a bench that will stand rough work,
though uo rough work is to bo doue.
Clean up^vhen through, and keep the
cellar neat and ordqrly. —American Ay-
riculturiit.
GIVE THEM PLENTY 0, OOM.
Borne gardcus have u look much
worse than that of neglect—they arc
“dowdy.” One cause for this is over-
crowding. The plants have neither
room, light nor air sufficient to enable
them to develop iheir forms or flowers.
Not long since we saw a bed of bal-
sains of full fifty plants in a tpr.ee one
and one-half feet square’; the o^vner
complained bitterly because’ his floweis
were not so fine as ours, yet our plauis
had six square feet each, and they com-
pletcly covered the space. Plants should
be thinned soon after they are started to
get a strong, healthy growth.
Another cause of “dowdy gardens”
is a desire to have a little of everything
in a space only sufficient to grow a few
things-well. Form and color are so
intermixed that the effect is destroyed—
no harmony, no distinctness, simply a
jumble of color. And still we are
asked to admire flnfei? under such con-
dilions. A.s well might we call an ar-
list s palette a picture.
In the window garden the snmo thing
is aoticeable. Ten times as manv
plant* ai look well or do well are
crowded into a given apace lor fear they
will be killed in the garden. Better
have them killed by Jack Frost than to
starve them in the hoqpor let them eke
out a miserable existence.
A plant is never so beautiful as when
grown to perfection. This cannot bo
done if it is crowded or in tho shade of
trees of walls.
It is belter to have a single specimen
in the vigor of lieu 1th and bloom than a
floral hospital. A single plant of good
zinnia will adorn a garden for three
months; whatever its color may bo
there will bo none other to destroy its
harmony, and there is no color but what
is pleasing if It does not suffer by com¬
parison. Plant a few things and give
them a living chance.— America* Gar¬
den.
CULTIVATING THE OltClIAKD.
The orchard is generally supposed to
be n placj to be utilized for several pur¬
poses. If farmers were satisfied to
grow a single crop in the orchard, as they
are in respect to cereals, there would be
fewer complaints about the unprofita¬
bleness of fruit; but they always seem
desirous of procuring a crop of fruit
and a crop of grain or grass from the
land )ds0 . NoW) the , Hnf , is „ 0
more capable of produ(dng two good
cr0|)g wben uv)d nil orc])ard , h an
when occupied by othftr Cr0] „ lhcre is
no reaaon why au orch ard which in-
chido , the land )n one lcnse sbould be
!l( n icted with mor8 than it should pro-
duce> B ut as the space between the
tines seems to be unoccupied, though
really not so, the lamer is tempted to
put in a crop of grass, grain or vegeta¬
bles, and wonders why the orchard is
so unproductive.
The production of a large crop of
fruit deprives the soil of a largo quan¬
tity of mineral matter, especially pot¬
ash, aud although the trees themselves
seem to occupy but a limited space,
with their branches iu the air, never¬
theless the roots occupy every portion
of the ground, and are at work upon every
atom of available nutritious matter that
cau be taken from the soil. To add a
crop of grass is but subjecting the land
already heavily taxed by the trees to
the production of two crops, The
reason why some orchards flourish while
standing in grass is because the de¬
mands of the trees aud of that particu¬
lar kind of grass arc dissimilar, yet
in the course of time one exhausts
the soil of that which the other requires.
Instead of glowing two crops the
orchard ■should be cultivated and kept
clean. Trees do not require stable
manure unless it is well rotted, but an
application of lime or wood ashes in
(lie spring nnd fall, witli the surface
kept clean with a cultivator, will
greatly improve tho trees, and nlso the
quality of the fruit. Tho plow should
not be used by running too deeply,
since it tears up and destroys the roots.
Ail the orchard wants is occasional
cultivation nnd n close pruning once a
year. Another point to he observed is
that of thinning the fruit from young
t ,. ces wben thoy nro too heavy laduD .
] f this is done, that remaining will be
of a hotter quality and finer in appear¬
ance. In nearly all cases where or-
chnrds fail, tho cause may be traced to
mismanagement .—American Cultivator,

for flic purpose of advertise meut. Tito

Norwegian Folklore,
Thoro is perhaps no country in Europo
richer in legend iry lore than Norway.
Until very recent years the communication
of the dwellers in the more remote coun¬
try districts with the outside world was
small indeed, and old-time superstitions
have lingered long and died hard among
those simple and credulous peoplo. To
listen to their talcs of goblins and sprites,
of trolls, gnomes, and other uncanny
creatures, childhood’s brings back memories of
days and the nursery stories
with which our youthful minds were both
dolighted and scared. There is u belief
among the peasantry that the mters or
upland in farmhouses, ’summer which arc inhabited
ished the that by those who are ban¬
at season to the high and
distant pastures to look after the cattle,
are in the winter taken possession of by
a race of little people, sviio are resentful
of any interference with their privileges,
t and are offended if I he cattle are brought
up earlier or kept later than usual. The
following tale was told us in the Aardul
Knut Valley: One fine autunm u man named
Kvigne had kept his cows and
horses at the mater a week later than
usual, rienced and he foqnd that he expe¬
a great deal of trouble in collect¬
ing them together iu the morning. One
insist with he wooden was sitting cut eating by himself his oatmeal from
a spoon
a birch tree, when he heard a knock at
his door. Startled by such an unusual
occurrence as the advent of a visitor in so
remote a place he called out somewhat
timidly, “Come in;” but, there was no re¬
sponse to his invitation. Thrice was tin-
knock repealed and thrice was Die stran-
geroidden to enter, and then there ap¬
peared doorway through the partly opened
a hideous head with two long
ears like those of a pig. Knut was a
daring by fellow, and he seized the creature
its ears and compelled it to enter.
On being questioned the visitor con¬
fessed that he was a burja tradtl, and
said lie occupied the eider hut in the
given winter, and demanded that it should bo
up to him. High words
were followed by blows, and
in the struggle that ensued,
although iu danger he was a strong man, Knot was
of being overcome. lie swore
at tho creature, and each time he did so
he found that his adversary grew .strong¬
er, and then he called to God for help.
When the sacred name fell from his lips
Knut began to prevail, and ultimately lie
triumphed. He secured (he creature,and
would not release him until he hacl ex¬
tracted from him a promise never again
to interfere with the people in the « eter,
and always to drive the cows and horses
close to the hut in the morning, and he
ever afterward kept his word.
Alien Landholders in Ameri a.
Who owns the lands in the United
States? Why, the citizens do, or should,
would be the natural reply. But, unfor¬
tunately, it is not altogether so. Some of
the best lands in this country are owned
by alien landlords. Nearly 33,000,000
acres of laud are owned by people who
owe he allegiance to other governments. To
exact there are 31,341,000 acres of
land under the direct control and man¬
agement of thirty forty individuals t
or or
companies. land There are 3,720,383 acres of
in Massachusetts, so that the men
giance living in other countries and owing alle¬
to other powers own land enough
to make about ten states like Massachu¬
setts, more than tho whole of New Eng¬
land, more land than somo governments
own to support owned a king. The largest
amount of laud by any one man or
corporation is owned by a corporation
called the Holland Land Company. Talk
about alien landholders in Ireland!
There is twice as much land owned by
aliens in the United States as there is
owned by Englishmen in Ireland. Think
of it! More than 32,000,000 acres of land
owned by men in Europe .-;—American
Citium.
The Virtue of Hot Milk.
It is worthy of reiteration that milk
heated to as high a temperature as it can
be drunk or sipped above 100 degrees
but not to the boiling point, is of great
value as a refreshing stimulant in cases of
over exertion, bodily or rnqptal. To most
people who like milk, it does not taste so
good, with but that is benefit a small be matter from com¬ it.

plies real strength as well ns exhilaration,
something which alcohol never does.

varies The quantity of nicotine in tobacco
from two to ns much as six and
containing even eight per the cent.; taking the tobaeco
smallest quantity of nico¬
tine for every 100 grains—say quarter ot
an ounce—there would be contained in it
two grains of nicotine. An ordinary pipe¬
ful of tobacco would hold about one-
twelfth of an ounce, and an ordinary eight
would contain about a quarter of an
ounco, and therefore they would contain
nicotine to the extent of 0(1, or nearly
two thirds of a grain in the case of the
pipeful, cigar. and about two grains in the case
of a If the tobacco containing
most nicotine were used, the quantities
would be increased four-fold. Nicotint
is a very powerful poison, one grain be¬
ing sufficient to kill and the twentv-flftb
part of a grain sufficient to cause intense
suffering. The proportion of this sub¬
stance inhaled by tho smoker not only
varies with the various kinds
of tobacco, but also with the rapidity
of the burning; and in the case of a
pipe, with its form and leugth, and the.
