give me a few important points to be
looked after in order t • secure a comfort
able and convenient barn.
Answer.— Tiie location of your barn
is of the first importance. It is easy to
make additions and add conveniences,
but if the situation is bad the defect
can never be remedied. , Build on a hill
sine and you ran so arrange as .to have
second story cm a level with the wagon
Way, which is a great convenience in
driving in and out, and in unloading
and storing file crops. May also bear
ranged to have a l n vel drive way, which
adds greatly to the expedition and ease

add JO) pounds of acid phosphate and

W ur cotton fires no doubt for want of
humus iu the soil, and the humus must

thc rilies “humus supplies nitrogen to
tlie plant,” “it irpbibes and absorbs and
holds water, and the vapor of water.”
•*it improves the texture of many soils.”
‘‘And it absorbs and holds ammonia and
the salts of ammonia, as well as various
otlier substances.” “iljreover, by its
slow decay humus supplies carbonic
acid-for the dissolving of plant food.”
To rephve the humus in your soil you
mast plant rye this fall, to be turned
under iu the spring; follow that with a
crop of peas, fertilizing at the same time
with 100 pounds of acid phosphate and
50 pounds of kaiuit to the acre. Gather
tne peas and ...... let the vines remain upon
the laud. The following spring pat in
cotton if you wish, and using the above
fertilizer, I am sure you would make a
good cotton crop. After that rotate
your crops iu such a manner that you
will not have cotton on the same laud
oftener than once in three years. Plant
more small grain, more field peas, etc.,
and iu this way yon can keepnp thefer-*
tility of your soil, and make crops that
will be a pleasure and a profit.
Cura For “LampaO
Question. —Mv horse has a swelling
of the bars ou the l-oof of the mouth,
called, I believe “lampas.” Can I cure
** without burning with a hot iron,
which seems to me a needlessly cruel
operation.
Answer. —Never permit the cruel and
brutal practice of burning the roof of
mouth for "lampas.” This method is
still pursued in some sections, but it is
an evidence of ignorance and cruelty.
This conditiou is frequently due to
teething in young horses, sometimes in
old horses to indigestion, aud it fre¬
quently occurs when a young horse is
taken from grass aud fed on grain.
Generally this swelling will get well
without any treatment, but should the
infl .mation be_great enough to interfere
with mastication, thou lance where the
most swelling appears. Afterwards,
wash the mouth two or three times a
day with a solution of alum aud water.
Keep this up for three or four days,
feeding on grass or ground corn or oats,
aud your animal will get well.—State
Agricultural Department.
GrafUng at»d lSuthlin^.
Question.—P lease tell me, in grafting
or budding, does the new growth take
the (fetnro of the stock on which it is
grafted, or of taken? the tree from which the
scions were
Answer. —A grafted tree is an in¬
stance of blended growth. As the emi¬
nent authority Storer says: “The leaves
and stems of the graft arc nourished by
food taken iu from the soil through the
roots of the stock, while the roots and
other tissues of the stock are supported
in their turn by food taken in from the
air through the leaves of the graft.”
The graft, however, retains the nature
of the tree from which it was taken, the
stock being only tho medium for fnrn
ishiug it with nourishment from tho
earth.—State Agricultural Department.
Irish Potatoes.
Question. —Living in the latitude of
Macon could X nlant Irish potatoes in
the s pring, follow with peas, cut the
vines off, nd then sow turnips in time
to mature? Will pomegranates grow
from the seed, or how are they best
propagated?
Answer.—I t would not be impossible
for you to make a crop of potatoes, peas
and turnips the same season, with a very
early spring and a very late fall to help
you out. Under ordinary conditions
yon could not do it, and would have to
content yourself with potatoes or peas,
followed by turnips. The pomegranate
is easily propagated by cuttings, layers,
suckers or seeds. The seed should bo
planted soon after the fruit is ripe, or
but few of them will vegetate.—State
Agricultural Department.
Diversified Farmln*.
C^UTFTTOX.—Are there any statistics
to prove that diversified 'farming is the
safest aud most profitable?
Answer.—T he United Btafces census
for 1890 shows that 98 per cent of the
farms sold under mortgage were de-‘
were grown only 2 per cent wore thus
disposed of. This fact should be a
strong argument in favor of diversified
(arming. — State Agricultural Depart¬
ment.
To Ascertain Net Weight of Hogs.
Question.—P lease give me a simple
plan to ascertain the net weight of
hogs.
Answer.—U nder usual conditions,
that is. . lien the hogs are iu moder
ate’.y good order, four-fifths of the gross
weight is about equ.l to tho not weight; .
that is subtract one-fifth from the whole
weight of the hog.—State Agricultural I

It was doubtful if the United

war on Mexico in 1843, B"
this as it may, Mexico was van

hie portion of her domain ab¬
sorbed by this country. Since
that time. Mexico beheld her
conquerors waging fierce war¬
fare ’among themselves and
sowing dragons’ teeth for future
misery. At present Mexico
takes a lively interest i;i the
success of McKinley because
that would mean maintain?;::.;?

way that nobody need fail to
comprehend. It says:
