A reasonable deduc¬ tion of known’ principles might sug geet an application of superphosphate of lime with potash salts to neutralize the stimulating effect of too much nitrogen, or rather to balance it and enable the crop to fill out the grain which calls for these elements, The experience of this year is a valuable lesson for future guidance under similar conditions, It is also an in tercsting instance of how many condi¬ tions conspire to affect the results of farm practice.— [American Agricul¬ turist. FOOD FOR GROWING PIGS. The stomach of a hog is not large enough to adapt it to bulky, innutri¬ tions food. As it docs uot chew the cud it can not make use of grass or hay in such large amounts as do cattle and sheep. Pigs will eat a little clover, but if left without other food will not grow much, if at all. Know¬ ing this, as most farmers do, it must seem a waste of effort, so say the au thorities that be, the New York Ex¬ perimental Station, to make a trial of ensilage and comfrey as food for growing pigs. The result there, under the conditions suggested, was what might have been expected. The pigs merely rooted over the ensilage enough to secure what hits of corn were scattered through it. Then they, when driven by hunger, chewed as much of the ensilage as they could. Prickly comfrey was eaten in very similar manner. The pigs fed on bran and corn meal, with a small amount of ensilage, did better; but neither they nor those fed on corn alone produced pork at a profit. The experiment, in short, decided nothing not already well known by farmers. The cost of the ensilage and of the prickly comfrey was estimated at $1 per ton, while rather curiously the manure from this same ton is esti¬ mated at $1.48. According to this the ensilage-fed pigs, though gaining nothing themselves, were really a source of profit as machines for mak¬ ing manure. It is even suggested in the bulletin recording this experiment, that breed¬ ing animals, both boars and sows, may he kept on ensilage, as no in¬ crease in their weight is expected. But how is the sow to nourish the young she is bearing, or the boar to be kept in proper vigor for breeding on such lood as tins? The experi¬ ment was made with improved breeds, the Cheshire and Duroc-Jerse.v. A wild, long-nosed pig would have been better adapted to this style of feeding and with such specimens this unfortu¬ nate experiment might have succeeded better.—[Courier-Journal. FARM and garden notes. Select the seed corn. Feed the hens some of the skim milk. It saves time to do everything on time; a regular routine of work is a great time saver. It won’t pay you to do without a thermometer if you are going to make butter this winter. Xo tile of a less size than three inches should be laid, nor at a less depth than 36 inches. Dig potatoes as soon as ripe. Noth¬ ing gained bv leaving them in the ground after they arc fit to dig. If you are fond of ease you had better not try winter dairying as a means of getting ou in the world. The less potatoes are handled the better they will keep—they are belter in a cool cellar than exposed to the sun. You will find it often saves time to “wait a little” until the temperature of cream is right, before beginning to churn. By thorough tile drainage the good ness of tho water is screened and strained oul into the land, leaving the richness. Some feed higher than the profits in milk warrant, but too many dairymen feed too low for the best profit. Y iiicli are you doing? The Maid Knew Him.

The so-called science of medicine is a humbug and has been from the time of Hippocrates to the present. Why {be biggest crank in tho In¬ dian tribes is the medicine man.” ‘'Very when frafik wastthe admission, especially so it came from one of the biggest young practice physicians of the city, one whose is among the thousands, though he has bein graduate;! but a fow years," says the Buffalo Courier. “‘Very cozy was his of¬ fice too, with its cheerful grate fire, its Queen Anne chairs. furniture, He and its Ynany lounges aud easy stirred tho fire lazily, lighted a fresh cigar, and went on,” “Take the prescriptions laid down in the books and what do you find? Poisons mainly, and nauseating stuffs that would make a healthy man an invalid. Why in the world science should go to poisons for its remedies I cannot tell, nor can I find any one who can.” "How does a doctor know the effect of his medicine?” he asked. “He calls, prescribes, and goes away. The only way to judge would be to stajj^j over the bed aud watch the pa¬ tient. Tins canuot be done. So really I don’t know how he is to tell what good or hurt he does. Sometime ago, you remem¬ ber, the Boston Globe sent out a reporter with a stated set of symptoms. He went to eleven prominent physicians and brought back eleven different" prescriptions.
