FARM. worms __To Get Kid of Weeds. Sreen manuring may be the means of cleansing the field from weeds, for wticli purpose, of course, only the crops of th© most rapid growth are heeial. It increases the store of or¬ ganic matter in the soil, and so fuvn isiics the conditions favorable for the these, multiplication of earth worms, and as Darwin has pointed out, by their activities improve the soil in which many ways, most important among are better aeration, bringing of the finer materials in the top, pulver¬ ization and increased solubility of its constituents. —Professor William P. Brooks, of Massachusetts. The Ox-Eye Daisy. There are many who admire the daisy as a flower, and even the large the oxeye, larger and more showy than common varieties, is not without those who think it beautiful. But it hardly needs to be added that these are have mostly city people, or those who not become acquainted with the daisy’s peculiarities. It is a most abundant seeder, and once in the land it is almost impossible to get rid of it Yet there was a time when this vile pest was sent out to be cultivated in gardens as a beautiful flower. Dur¬ ing one of the last years we were on the farm, a handsome carriage with team, showing a family taking a drive through the country, called at the house, and the lady of the party asked us in the most polite tones possible if we would be kind enough to allow them to pluck a * ‘few of the beautiful flowers” which she saw growing amid the grass and clover. Of course con¬ could sent was readily given, though we hardly repress a smile. Yet it cut early, before its seed is formed, the daisy makes a hay which stoek will eat if forced to it. It has then rather tnote than half as much nutrition as good hay.—Boston Cultivator. Cost «i Growing; a Cow. The lecturer of the New Hampshire Grange has been making an estimate of how cheaply a heifer calf can be raised until it is sixteen months old, by whieh time the heifer may begin to pay her way. Assuming the calf tc be dropped the first of October, he estimates the cost of feeding it on fikiminilk thickened with ground flax¬ seed and Borne hay for the first five months or twenty-one weeks, at $9.57. The next three months bringing it tc the pasturing season cost nearly six¬ ty-four cents per week, or $8.28. Pas¬ ture will vary with locality and is reckoned extremely low, calces being often pastured for $1.50 to $2.50 for the season. The last three months cost $9.48, making a total for sixteen months of $28.81. The lecturer adds that if there be much increase of ex¬ pensive foods, like flaxseed, thejeosi of growing the calf will be considera¬ bly increased. These figures are strongly confirmatory of the belief of many old farmers that it does not pay to grow a heifer into a cow, and that it is cheaper to buy the cow after all these costs and the risk of loss have been borne by somebody else. It is a fact, however, that a cow grown on the farm and always used to it w'ill be generally a better cow than she will if Bold to be sent to some other place. The cow has a great love for the home where she was brought up, and in etances have been known where they have been sold to a distance, of their escaping in the night and making their way to the familiar barnyard where were reared. Popcorn as a Crop. It hardly pays to grow popcorn as a field crop, under ordinary circum¬ stances. The consumption of pop¬ corn is a considerable item, and a farmer may be so situated that he could grow it profitably, but we should not care to attempt it. It is not s certain crop, and it seems, for some unaccountable reason, to fail more easily in a large field than in a small patch. It is capable of yielding fifty bushes to the acre, but it does not often do it. It mixes so easily with other corn—which, of course, destroys its market value—that unless planted far away from other corn, we get a variegated nothing. But if we succeed iu getting a crop, we meet with serious difficulties in keeping it, and to get the best prices it must be kept a year, and under the very best conditions. It must be kept dry, absolutely dry, and, with the ordinary farmer’s facilities for large storage, that is not au easy thing. If there should be some place on the farm that will insure dryness, rats ahd mice will be the next trouble, and these pests not only destroy a great deal of the* corn, but will taint even more than they eat. The only practical way of keeping it from rats and mice is to cover the crib, which ought to be in some building, with fine wire netting, and that is too ex¬ pensive. It is the practice of some who do not grow it upon too largo a scale, to throw it upon the bare floor, shovel over every day for a week, and then barrel. Two or three inch holes are bored in each end of the barrel for tlie admission of air. But this does not always save the corn from mice.— The Epitomist. Th« JajtaaMr and Thrlr Hair. The most striking difference be¬ tT^een the knpearanoe of the male and female Japanese lies in the hair. The men shave nearly the whole of the head, while the women allow it to grow, and even add to it by art when required. It is then twisted and coiled iato elaborate and fantastic- patterns, which fen Eastern hairdressers could imitate or equal. The hairpins used are not so much for confining the hair as for actual adornment, and are very fashionable. They are of enormous size, seven or eight inches in length, and half an inch wide, and are made of various sub¬ stances—tortoiseshell, carved wood and ivory—many el them being composed of carved figures adroitly pivoted so as to appear to dance at every breath drawn by the wearer. Others are made of glass and are hollow, and nearly filled with bright colored liquid, so that at movement of the head an air bubble runs from one end of the pin to the other, producing a most curious ef¬ fect in a strong light. Sometimes an extra fashionable wo¬ man will wear a dozen or more of these pins in her hair, so that at a little distance her head looks as if a -bundle of firewood had been closely stuck in¬ to it.
