FOODS FOR A SCORING COLT. A young colt should be taught to eat food wheu a month old. file mare should, of course, receive extra food to enable her to nurse the colt well, and bran and linseed pi ash once a day will largely increase the milk. The best place for a mare with a colt is in a loose box stall, and as soon as the confidence of the colt is gained and it may be han¬ dled, a little bran and crushed oats, with a pinch of salt added, may be given to it in the hand. After two or three days it will look for it and follow its owner for it. Then a small shallow box is nailed to the side of the stall aud the food is placed in it for the colt, A few ounces a day is sufficient at first, but at three mouths old the colt should b& eating two pounds a day. After this it wall eat whole oats, but some bran should still be given, as it contains all the elements of growth for a young animal .—New York Times. ■ CLOSE MOWING. - There is nothing gained by upland grass too close. Some farrilers 'mow their meadows as close as possible, and maue the tm! look as if it had been shaved wiflF a razor. Of all grasses timothy probably suffers the most from too close moving? it should not be cut below the first joint, and better still above the second. VV hen cut the bulb, or too near it, the plant often killed. The meadow will much quicker if the grass is cut about two or three inches high than when be- low that height, and the pasturage which will be gained will much more ?han bal¬ ance for the extra amount of hay of doubtful quality that is obtained by close mowing. Finer grass cau be cut than coarse ones, and lowland suffer but very little from being close, and possibly benefited, as the sun roots are un- POSTHOLE PUNCH. A very useful, cheap, durable, indispensable tool on every farm in parts of the country, writes J. E. gett in regard to a posthole puqch. The body of it should be of cast iron, teen inches iong, rouiad, four- and one- half inches diameter J at upper end tapering to a point at the other. A hole for the handle should be iu the end, two and one-qalf inches at its ing. two incfe'S at its lower end and inches deep. - Any man can make a pat¬ tern aud get the casting at any foundry. hard The handle cau be made of any wood, driven in and made of size to be easy to handle. Such a tool cau be used Nvith success in all kinds of soil, even in quite afcny land, With an outfit con- sistingof a’punch, a heavy maul, and a short-legged stool to stand ou to drive the posts, two men cau set more fence- posts iu a dav than in ten days’ hard work in the old way of digging the holes, and equally well for all practical purposes. The posts need be only half sharpened, just the corners shaped off a little with the axe—a rainy-day job at making kindlingwood.

The crop is removed, a young queen given in place of one whose best powers are used, the remaining bees are allowed honey enough for winter and raise enough young to keep up their strength until spring. This is followed year after year, whether the season be good or poor, so when the harvests come a good crop is insured. Improvement in yield in some sections is due to the planting of basswood trees iu private grounds and along roadsides for shade. Nothing in this country equals basswood bloom for honey produc¬ tion. Alsike clover, now more generally planted on heavy soil, in connection with or in place of red clover, is also grad¬ ually increasing our bee pasturage, as well as the farmer's crop of cattie fodder. may obtain the nectar from alsike bloom, while they are unable to reach tiiat in the blossoms of the first crop of red clover. Buckwheat, usually a profit- table crop aside from honey, may be planted to still increase the supply of bee food, though it does not always yield honey. Mr. Cushman emphasizes the import¬ ance of starting with a good hive and sticking to it, so as to have one kind only in an apiary, thus making possible doubling, dividing, changing combs of brood or honey, tiering up, etc .—New York World. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Wage war on weeds now. Clean out the fence corners now. Crowd corn cultivatiou continually. Reduce the number of fences on youi farm. Fences ou a farm like corners in a house are what cost. Raise your own dairy stock; there are many advantages in it. The fertilizer applied to any crop i9 never all taken up by it. Better have grass than weeds along the roads through your farm. Always cut away all dead wood. It may be done at any time. When you feed, do you know the weight of a forkful of hay? Drag the potatoes before high enough to cultivate with cultivator. Planting on poverty-stricken soil is like fishing in barren waters. No cow' that is kept all the while in¬ doors can be perfectly happy. The farmer can grow vegetables cheaper than he can buy them. Clover, corn and skimmed milk will grow pigs and make nice pork. The clematis provides a handsome climber for arbors and verandas. Try on your own farm to make home production overbalance home consump¬ tion. The surest way to improvement of stock is by the introduction of improved blood. Remember that in ordinary good soil, the best crop of potatoes is gained with fiat culture. If you do not get all the manure out, pile it up where it will not leech or fire- fang any this summer. To save radishes from the attacks of the fly sprinkle the Leaves with soot or wood ashes just as soon as they are above ground. To know what to feed saves the pocket- book; how to feed saves the man; when to feed saves the pig; the combination makes a feeder. American Garden calls attention to the Merkel, a new red raspberry, wholly dis¬ tinct from all other varieties aud possess¬ ing several valuable qualities. Farmers do not use the harrow enough. Keep it in the corn field from the time the corn is planted till you can use the cultivator to advantage. Ducks need looking after frequently during the day as they are apt to get on their backs, and in this position they are entirely helpless and will die unless turned on their feet. The crab apples are both ornamental and useful, aud may justly claim a place in ornamental gardening. The single and double flowering varieties from China and Japan are splendid in flower. I a many cases it will be a good plan to let the turkey hens hatch out the second laying of eggs, The weather beinv warmer and more settled there is less 2 an o£ l033 thau with the earlier In sen( jj D£ T poultry to market remem- aa( j con( jition count for more than color or shade in skin.
