fOR FARM AND GARDEN,
COST OF KEEPING A HEN.
According to the poultry editor of
the farm Journal, the feed necessary
for 100 hens for a year is as follows:—
1000 pounds clover hay chopped, 1000
pounds potatoes, 2000 pounds corn
meal, 1000 pounds oats, 100 pounds
cotton seed meal, 800 pounds barley
meal. Supposing these amounts to be
nearly correct, as we presume they are,
the cost of the article will be about 70
per cent., or 70 cents per hen. Any
respectable hen ought to lay eggs enough
in the course of a year to bring $1.50,
or more than double the cost of her
keeping. If this figuring is correct the
poultry business ought to pay better
than most branches of farm ng.
MIXING OF MELONS AND CUCUMBERS.
When cucumbers are planted near
melons and both are in bloom at the
same time, the different plants are apt
to become mixed to some extent by the
visits of bees, which carry pollen from
one to the other. To some extent the
effect of the mixture is apparent the
same year in the fruit, but the next
year it is much more so when the cross¬
bred plants are produced from the
seed. This first year’s mixturo is*
however, rare, and has only occurred
with the writer once in several
years’ experience. It is safest
to procure fresh seed every year
for small gardens in which related
plants are necessarily grown close to
«ach other.— N. T. Times.
PLANTING AND CULTIVATING CORN.
As soon ai the weather has become
settled and the ground is warm and
dry, corn should be planted. Early
planting, generally speaking, gives the
best results. When the weather and
soil will permit farmers ought to be
ready to drop their seed.
The ground must be rich and friable
to produce paying yields of corn.
Where ploughing is to be done the
ploughs should be started as scon as the
soil is dry enough to admit of it.
Planting corn in drills is now the
common practice. Flat culture is in
order except on low lands, where culti¬
vation in hills is still practised. For
targe growing varieties of corn rhe rule
is drills from lour to five feet apart,
while for small corn a distance of three
feet is suffic.cnt. The plants are thinned
to from three feet to 18 inches in the
drill according as the variety may sug-
sest. The seed should not be covered
too deep; two inches are quite sufficient
and more than enough in mellow
ground. The use of the roller utter the
seed has been drilled in is very gener¬
ally practised by progressive farmers.
HIVING BEES AUTOMATICALLY.
The hiving of bees automatically has
been tried for years with not very grat-
ifying results; and many claim to make
them cluster just where they want
them to; but let me charm ever so
wisely, says a writer it the Prairie Farm¬
er ; I always fail to get them to do it.
They told me plainly that they would
cluster just where they pleased. This
new fad is made by placing a drone and
queen-trap in front of the hive in such
a way lhat the worker bees can pass in
and out of the hive, but the drone and
queen cannot. 8o that when the queen
comes out, she cannot follow but re¬
mains in the cage, and as soon
as the bees miss her, will return.
The automatic hiving is done in this
way: To this drone and queen-trap is
attached a passage- way of perforated
zinc, which lends to another trap at¬
tached to an empty hive alongside of
it. When the queen comes out she
cannot get through, and goes along the
passage-way into the empty hive, and
as soon as the swarm miss her, return,
and hunting her, find her in the other
hive. As soon as a bee finds her it
communicates with the rest of the
swarm and they soon follow.
GRUB IN THE NOSE OF SHEEP.
A subscriber from Ohio asks: “What
is the matter with our sheep? A num¬
ber of the flock huddle together with
their heads turned inward and close to
the ground. They are restless, fre¬
quently sneeze, and paw the ground up,
into which they thrust their noses re¬
peatedly, as though annoyed by flies.”
This trouble is caused by the sheep
gad-fly (Eitris ovis, which is persever-
ingly attempting to deposit its eggs in
the nose of the sheep, where the warmth
and moisture of the mucous membrane
soon hatches them, and where they as-
cend the nasal sinuses to remain till the
warm days of the following spring,
when they drop upon the ground, in
which their larval life is soon changed
to the chrysalis and perfect insect.
In thi3 state their sole and immediate
occupation is reproduction, and per-
petuation of their species, without
feeding; this atcomplished, they die.
In the whole course of their parasitic
life they annoy the ?*icep; but, prob¬
ably more about the tims of their
descent from the nose. Their presence
aggravates colds, which affect sheep
more or less during the inclement
weather of the fall, winter and spring.
Whatever the annoyance of sheep,
their fleeces suffer in proportion to its
extent; like the disturbance of milch
cows by flics, when the yield of milk
is proportionately decreased, The
simplest remedy against the grub is a
trough of pulverized salt and dust
placed in the sheep pasture. Several
places spaded up, with a full supply of
salt, answer equally well, Coal tar
daubed upon the noses is a preventive.
It may be freely poured over the dug-
up earth and salt, and the sheep will
besmear their own noses. If required,
by the severity of the annoyance, an
injection of an ounce of salt and an
equal quantity of coal tar dissolved in
a quart of water and thrown up the
sheep’s nose every night for a few days,
will complete the remedy, Tobacco-
smoke, tobacco-decoction, snuff, or
other narcotics are too dangerous.
Sheep are very susceptible to nar¬
cotics, which renders their use hazard¬
ous. —American Agriculturist.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Prune trees early for growth and late
for fruit.
All foods for plants must be soluble
to be available.
Dig no trenches around your trees, if
you do not want to shorten the roots.
The shelter that shuts out both pure
and cold air is not & profitable struc¬
ture.
Do your shortening back among your
young trees before the buds begin to
start.
There should always be plenty of
clean drinking water in the poultry
yard.
Prune a little at a time aud avoid
the necessity for heavy pruning in the
future.
Bone meal mixed with other food is a
valuable preventive of leg weakness ia
young fowls.
Kind but firm treatment is impera¬
tively demanded in the training of all
young animals.
Farmers’ clubs can be made profitable
m the practical experience each of the
members can give.
Remember that with the warm
weather come lice, and give good care
to prevent them on the sitting hens.
The Pekin is probably the most
popular duck for the farm, being
hardy, easy to raise aud of a nice size
and appearance for marketing.
The question of cleanliness and good
ventilation of horse and cow stables is
all-important to owners of stock. Pure
air is the cheapest medicine anyone can
take, or furnish for his animals.
A farmer’s daughter advises women
about to begin turkey raising to start
with good stock, and names the pure
bronze as landsome, salable, thrifty
and easier to manage than the common
turkey.
Food for horses and cattle should be
of the best quality and kept free from
dust, moistuie and vermin. A very
common error in stable management is
not properly preventing mice and rats
from gaining access to the granary, as
well-bred animals will often refuse a
meal of grain that has been run over
and soiled by the pests.
All stone fruits are difficult to graft.
As the cherry buds swell very early, the
scions should be cut semi time before.
It is a slow process, forming a junction
of the new scion with the old wood,
and if the bud is swollen almost into
leaf before the graft is inserted, there
will be too much evaporation before sap
can be supplied from thn new stock.
Some Excuse.
Blinks—The paper says the Czir is

The Necessity of a (iracefiii Bearing.
»
How few women know how to stand up
erect and yet to preserve the slenderness
of their figures and the graceful cent ours.
This is one of the most important of so¬
cial arts. By standing well is meant the
throwing upward and forward of the
chest, flattening the back, and keeping
the shoulder-blades in their proper places.
Women should be “set up,” just as cadets
are at West Point or Annapolis. No wo¬
men in the world carry themselves so well
as the English women and girls of high
birth. This “setting up” drill is gone
through by them from their earliest child¬
hood, and much of their stately beauty is
due to the care their mothers take in this
respect. A great deal of our English
girls' beauty lies in their proud car¬ fig¬
riage, the delicate erectness of their
ures, and the dainty poise of the head.
This aristocratic bearing and carriage is
within reach of any girl, if she will but
believe it, ami take the pains to have it.
It is but the question of constant watch¬
fulness on the part of the mother and the
girl herself. Whether sitting or standing
she must alw ays preserve the graceful
erect positiou. This system of training
is also of great good. It preserves the
perfection of the figure, because the mus¬
cles arc always firm aud well strung, and
prevents the flesh from*sinking down the
waist and hips, which is so common
among women who permit a slouchy
manner, and which is so easily avoided.
Another habit women should avoid. In
going up stairs they bend forward and
contract the chest. This induces round
shoulders, besides spoiling the figure and
doing great injury to the heart and lungs.
There are so many little things, which, if
women would but consider, will preserve
their beauty a decade longer than it now'
lasts.
A poet asks: “What is warmer than a
woman’s love?” We infer that he never
picked up a newly-coined horse-shoe
fresh from the forge.
I rate Student —“Don’t you ever sweep
under the bed, I’d like to know?” Calm
chambermaid—“I always do. I perfer
it to a dustpan.”
What it Costs
Must be carefully considered by the great majority
of people before baying even what may seem abso¬
lutely necessary. Hood's Sarsaparilla commends
itself with special force to the great middle classes,
because it combines positive economy with great
medicinal power. It is the only medicine of which
can truly be said •
IOO Doses One Dollar
And a bottle of Hood’s Sarsaparilla taken according
to directions will average to last a month, while
other medicines last but half or quarter as long.
This is practical and conclusive evidence as to its
strength and economy. Try Hood’s Sarsaparilla and
see for yourself.
