If the land is poor the rye mviy be turned under in May and buckwheat sown ; this may be turned under early in July and another crop ;ovu, clover being sown with it and the buckwheat harvested. This will pay all the expenses and leave the clover, which may be left for hay and the aftermath remain to be plowed under in the spring for corn. Ar-c York Times. IMPROVING THE FLOCK. OLie of the surest ways to "run out'' a lock of good sheep is to follow the too 2011K110M custom of selling all the best iambs. No matter how good the ewes may be now, they will be past their prime in a few years, and their value for breed ing purpose, us well as for the produc :iiu of wool, will be greatly decreased, iii order to maintain, aud if possible im prove, the condition of a rlock, a few !)f the best lambs should be raised each year, and enough of the older or poorer sheep should be sold to keep the flock down to the desire J. number. America Dairy hiui. HOW TO SET A HEN. Very few people know "now to set a he:i properly. In the iirst place, re member that you can't make her sit if she don't want. to. Cut a barrel in two in the middle, then cut out one or two staves, so that when it is stood on its end there will b.i pleuty of room for the hen to pass in and out. Place the bar rel on the ground with the headed end tip, and then scoop out the earth to a concave shape and put in a very little tine hay, and the nest is ready for the eggs. If it is not convenient to put the barrel on the ground, a grass sod placed underneath the nest will answer. It is best to place the hen on a few glass or worthless eggs at first, as she may not take kindly to the nest you have pre pared lor her. Place her on the nest after dark and she will get accost omed to it through the night. If she seems in clined to sit after this she may be given the eggs which are intended to be hatched. If the hen is allowed to leave her nest every day a small coop may be placed in front of the barrel, and then she will be sure to return to nest. She should always have near her a cup of water and aplenty of food. If the above directions are followed and the esrgs are well fertilize;! a good brood of chickens may be expected. Ayr kail oral Journal. COWS FOIl 11 UTTER AND CHEESE. The fact that cows differ as much in individual characteristics as any other animals goes to show, writes a Pennsyl vania dairyman, the futility of the nu merous experiments made and making by experiment stations, intended to prove the lilne?s ,?f this or that breed or this or that kind of feeding for certain de sired results. There are well known differences between breeds of cows, re sulting from long habit and training, and these very much affect their value for certain uses, especially for the making of cheese and butter. There is no doubt of the greater value of the Jersey or Guernsey for the butter dairy, of the Ayrshire or Dutch cow for milk or cheese, and of the native for either as she may be made available. Few dairy men can afford to keep pure bred cows, nor has experience proved it to be de sirable. The large product of some pure breds (of which history records less than 100 out of more than 10,000, or about one in 100) would be a most fal lacious evidence in favor of furnishing a dairy with such cows. But the nat ural habit of the Jersey and Guernsey to give exceedingly rich milk gives them a. high value for crossing on the native stock which should be taken advantage of by all butter or cheese makers. It is too often supposed that rich milk makes most cheese, and that of a higher value, the cheese maker will find most profit in the best cows he can procure. New York Tribai e. SCIENCE IN AGRICULTURE. Iii an addres? on the subject of agri culture in public schools, J. E. Hryaut, of Ontario, Canada, has said some things that will be of general interest elsewhere. Thus a knowledge of the nature and composition of the soil is the foundation ou which all else is built, and the farmer who has been taught to discern the difference in soils scientifically, is the one best equipped for his business. Plants should be studied with their various methods of feeding aud sources of food. How soils become exhausted, and haw this exhaustion may be made good again, are vital questions, and bring up the whole subject of measures, both natural aud artilicial. It is declared the sheerest nonsense to say that a farmer can best obtain a suffi cient knowledge of these matters from practical experience. Agriculture re mained at a standstill for a thousand years until it began to be studied scientifically. The whole doctrine of scientific manuring is scarcely a half century old yet, and it is safe to say that the practice of agriculture has been more than revolutionized within that time. Equally important with the treatment of manures is the subject of tillage, which naturally includes drainage. Although the value of drainage in removing water from wet and boggy lands is freely ad mitted by most farmers, but few under stand its value in improving the pro ductiveness of all soils in almost all situations independently of the removal of the water. To be fully understood this requires a scientific presentation of the subject, which practice alone cannot give. New York WorJJ. GALLED SIiOULDEli. Unless care is taken in the spriug in beginning the spring work with' the teams there is danger of getting the shoulders galled or sore. Like man other things, this will be found easier to prevent than to cure. When it can be done it will be a good plan to oeni. working lightly at "hist and then gradu ally increase as the team become accus tomed to it. It is important that the collars and bames be well fitted. Iu very many cases it is more because the collars aud hames do not fit the shoulders properly than the work that causes the sores. Every horst that is to be worked during the spring should have at least a collar properlv fitted. It would be -till better to have a set of harness fitted to each horse, but a collar that is used on the one animal alone will be a great improement. Keep the collars clean by scraping or even washing, if necessary, to keep clean. In commencing work it will also be an iteot to keep the shoulders clem. It will be a good plan to wash the aouhiers- regu larly at noon and at night with cold salt water; this aids materially to harden them and at the same time reduces an inclination to fever. The collars should be pulled away from the shoulders when the horses are standing at rest aud should be entirely removed at noon and at night. With ood-fittiug collars aud hames and care at the start, the horses' shoul ders can be kept well. If theyget gaile.l they must be protected ; pads must bt arranged so as to take the pre-sure oil the sore place. Veterinary vasaline one of the best remedies to use for rd)s. washing the sore in tepid water and then putting on a good application of the vasa line. The animal should rest if possible, as it requires more than ordinary care to heal up a sore on the shoulder while the animal is at work every day. St. Louis It'ejjuilic. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Feed cottonseed meal cautiously. Re sure to get good seed to plant. A promising new early grape is the Winchell. Feeds have two values feeding and fertilizing. Hens in their natural condition seek a variety of food to supply their wants. Ashes with bone meal or acid phos phates are acceptable fertilizers for vines. When the poultry have a free range they pick up a great variety of food that they need. The faults of registers are that they register pedigiee only,and not the merit3 of the animal. The man who makes good cheese for home consumption will liud a market for it near home. Don't let your hogs sleep on a ferment ing manure pile, unless you want them to be sick and rheumatic. No farmer can succeed unless he prop erly cares for his stock. And we may add, he never ought to succeed. Cows kept in the stable in summer need frequent washing. Nature washes them when they are in the pasture. Care must always be taken in putting any kind of oil or grease ou young chick ens; too much will often prove fatal. T. T. Lyon reports the yellow trans parent apple as hardy, productive and more free from sap than any other early apple. A good rule'is to sow the smooth peas for the earliest crops, as these are hardy, and reserve the wrinkled kinds for later plantings. At a meeting of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society was urged the ad vantages of instruction iu horticulture in public schools. Tame hens sit better aud will fatten better and easier than when they are frightened every time something ap proaches them. One advantage with ducks is that they grow rapidly aud can be turned into money in a short time m less time than almost any other fowl. The largest geese for market are se cured by mating a Toulouse gander and an Embden goosa; with good feeding the cross will grow to a large size. Whenever it can be done, eggs from late hatched turkeys should never be used for hatching; they ought to be se lected from well-matured hens. One of the advantages with geese is that if they can be given a good pasture range they will need little extra feeding, at least during the growing season. Droopiness among the young chickens is almost a sure indication of lice. A little grease or coal oil over the top of their heads and under their wins will usually remedy the trouble. Whenever the hens lay thia-shellel cS3 ifc s almost a sure indication that they need lime. Generally fowls that iuu at large do not need to be supplied. but those that are confined must have a regular supply. For impoverished lawns in which the grass shows thin aud poor, apply a good top dressing of compost if you have it; if not, apply wood ashes and boue flour, or any complete fertilizer, at the rite of about COO pounds per acre. The influence of the human voice on all animals should ever be leapt in mind, especially in managing horses. Not loud and boisterous, but quiet, confident and masterful. It should also be youi rule invariably to speak to a horse before approaching. Cutting off and burning black-knot of plum trees both spring and fall, carrying the knife below the affected surface, was recommended at the recent meeting of the Western New York Horticultural So ciety, and dressing the wound with lin seed oil or kerosene was suggested as an additional benefit. Fowls require a great deal of water, drinking only a small quantity at a time; so it should be supplied abundantly, and kept clean and fresh. Fowls require and must have, carbonate and phosphate of lime for their shells, and it must be given them in unstinted quantities and in the most convenient manner for them to pick and swallow into the crops. Since the one per cent, reduction in the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railway dividend, the market value of the stock has shrunk more than $9,000. 0U0, or an amount sufficient to pay th extra one per cent for twelve year. OPENING THE CAMPAIGN. m,Q Ai ianr-fi Announces lis nana . Tl Tl - llV and Calls for Funds. A National "Propaganda Committee'" M it Ana an &.rmy oi "Ketiujcn Are Ready for the Fray. Winrv.Tox. D. C. rSpecial.l The Farmers' Alliance is beginning early its campaign. A "campaign of education" it is calted, and th National Campaign Committee goes by the name oi Prouaanda Fund I oinmittee. ine first appeal for campaign funds has just been issued aud the work is to be prose cuted vigorously all aloug the line. The plan of campaign has been careluliy anu systematically laid out, and with the organization machinery at command it will undoubtedly make itself leit nei ever the Alliance has members. Thai portion of the plan which is made public provides for the utilization of the great lecture system of the Alliance throughout the country, under control of the Nation al Committee at Washington. The Alliance has regularly appointed National, State, District aud .County lecturers, whose duty it is to preach Alliance doctrines to the members. More of these lecturers are to be appointed, anu they will talk persistently from one cud of the country to the other. They will talk to outsiders as well as members, and such missionary tours as that which Jerry Simpson is making will be made by other prominent leaders. The Alliance plan of political salvation will be preached in the cities as well as in the country, and every effort will be made to popularize the Alliance doctrines. To make sure that only the pure doctrine is taught skeleton lectures will be sent out periodically from Washington to all authorized speaker, and a register will be kept there of Ihe army of talkers and the work they are doing. Thus the national organ of the Alliance, the Kronomiit. says of it: "Jay Gould, Mr. Rrice, Mr. Quay, or any other capitalist or politician, wil" find the Propaganda Fund Committee ready to accept donations from them and use the money where it will do the most good iu the cause of reform, ami should Mr. Stanford desire to contribute some railroad money to assist the farmers h will have a splendid chance to do so. Some of the extremely wealthy may need a depository for conscience money and they will find this a good place. "The propaganda fund is not estab lished to collect money to be used for corrupt campaign methods. The money will be used to educate the masses in tin; principles of the Farmers' Alliance ami to bring about a better understanding between the good, the true, and the hon est citizens of this nation, to the end that all such may lay aside sectionalism aud unite in a determined effort to abolish corruption and discrimination from the laws and usages of the country, and in augurate a reign of justice that shall guarantee equal rights and equal c hances to all worthy citizens. Political parties accept secretly large donations from men who expect to control the patronage of the party when in-power. The propa ganda fund collection is entirely different. Those who donate to it may well be proud to have the matter known, because is shows not necessarily liberality on their part, but it is substantial evidence of their devotion to the cause of humanity. " J. F. Tillman, the Secretary' of the National Executive Board of the Alliance, is to have charge of the propaganda movement, and sympathizers are invited to send their c hecks to Secretary J. II. Turner of the Alliance. It is said that in accordance with the desire to devote a few months to the shaping of public sentiment before com mittiug the farmers lo an open third party movement, the Alliance leaders are striving strenuously to offset the plans for the Cincinnati conference in May. The Economist declares that the Knights of Labor, the Farmers' Alliance, jf the Northwest, the Colored Farmers' Al liance, and the national branch of the Citizens' Alliance will not be represented at Cincinnati. Discussing the call it adds : "What organizations are behind it? What element of reform movement does it represent, and why is it demanded? Let every member of the K. of L., Farm ers' Alliance white or colored. Citizens' Alliance, or any other true reformer, ask aud answer for himself those questions before he goes into spasms over this proposed meeting. The time for hurrah conferences is at an end. They have cursed the people long enough. It is not agitation the people want, it . edu cation ou i orrect lin?s. What will be the result of this meeting? Of what will the substauce consist when the froth and enthusiasm have blown off? Who will be there that represents organized labor?" Mississippi is the only State in tha South where the election this fall will be based on distinct Alliance issues. Th struggle of the Alliance will be to elect a Legislatuie which will retire Senator George, who is outspoken in his opposi tion to the Sub-Treasury scheme. . The best men the Alliance can muster will be sent to Mississippi to take part in the campaign. Some recent Alliance propositions for legislative enactment aie uniquely inter esting. Thus the district union of the Ninth Kentucky Congress district recently resolved that all notes, mortgages or other written evidences of indebtedness should be presented to the Assessor for assess ment and be annually stamped by him, and if not so presented and stamped to bocome invalid; that the last certified reports of banks to be taken by the Assessor as a basis of assessment; that the rolling stock of lailroads be made personal property subject to execution for all stock killed or injured, and no appeal be granted beyond the circuit courts for sums of 200 or Jess. Col. Polk, at Criston, Iowa, last week said there arc too many lawyers sent to Congress. That the only way to succeed is to send farmers there. The Alliance, he said, intended to go into politic, but not into partyism. Some bv-stande,-usked him how alwut North Carolina, ami Senator Vance's remarks that on :i cloudy day he could not tell the diffei ence between an Alliance-man and a Democrat. Col. Folk dodyed by sug gesting that the farmers would have 'a new pr ty in the next presidential enm paiirn. North State. The speech made by Ben Terrell here last Saturday wn, the l-?t speech on living issue that we have listened : ,i Ion time No one, no matter of wlnn uofesslinor political be.ief coulcl cJ eet to the doctrine- he advocates for ! u principle are the principle of eternal justice His speech wa common-sense ,n every way, ami fleaU with facts not sentiment, and principle?, not men. As as such men as Ben Terrell shape public opinion we need not fear any ierious harm being done, and for tin reason we wMi we had a thousand J c r-n.m-.T.e Charlotte, N. C, June. Farmers do not realize what an ad vantageous field that lies before them in ;he elirection of rearing horses that will nrttch or if not situated for this through. not having brood mares looking exactly dike and bred alike, then by exchanging what the tailors call a "misfit" for an animal or animals from other farms, thus -vltim.- together a double team which all buversviH want on sight. There are, in ibis direction, great opportunities lost to armers and great gains made by dealers. ::: Dp The February report of the Agricul tural Bureau shows that the average value of milch rows is largest in New York, or 5:51 each. This high average is probably due to two causes.- First, the early establishment of cheese factories in this State, and second, the improvement in Miie-k through the introduction of many tine herds by enterprising breeders. SCIENTIFIC ANP INDUSTRIAL. Berlin will not permit an electric road. Denver, Col., will have a mineral palace. Cork covering for steam pipes has proved very successful in England. Many of the explosions in flour mills have been traced to electricity generated by belts. In Denmark the life-saving stations are all supplied with oil for stilling the waves in storms. A new bag machine both cuts and sews the bag, an I thus saves the labor of fourteen operators. It takes about three seconds for a mes sage to go from one end of the Atlantic cable to the other; this is about 700 miles a second. In welding pipes by electricity, it has been the usual practice to employ inter nal mandrels t prevent collapse or change of circumferential ontline. A large body of antimony ha3 been found in Inyo County, California. The owner says he has in sight bowlders of the metal weighing from two hundred to three hundred pounds. It U a val uable find. Miss Frye, a school teacher, has dis covered a method by which better tiles can be made than have ever been made before. She has a patent and is likely soon to turn from school teaching to financiering. The exhaustive experiments at Salford, near Manchester, England, with a view of ascertaining the most efficient method of purifying sewage, has resulted in the recommendation of an electrical system as the most satisfactory. Small articles made of malleable iron are now finished and polished bright by being placed in revolving drums with curriers' shavings, from which they emerge with all of the rough edges smoothed and the surface highly pol ished. A secret chemical powder introduced abroad, when sprinkled over the top of the coal iu a newly made fire cements the upper part of the fuel together and causes the coal to burn at the bottom and throw the heat into the room in stead of allowing a large part of it to go up the chimney. A process ha3 been recently invented by which iron may be copper, the sur face of the iron being protected by a layer of melted cryolite and pho3phoric acid. It has been found that if the ar ticle, when immersed, is connected with the negative pole of a battery, the cop pering is done more rapidly. By a new process waste leather scraps are steeped in a solution and subjected to a hydraulic pressure to mould them into railway brake shoes. The leather shoe weighs 4 pounds against 21$ pounds for iron, and it will wear three times as long. Such, at least, is the claim of the compressed leather men. A permanent and durable joint can be made between rough cast-iron surfaces by the use of lead to make a very stiff putty. This will resist any amount of heat, and is unaffected by steam or wa ter. It has been employed for mending or closing cracks in cast iron retorts used in the distillation of oil and gas from cannel coal. High funnels seem to be growing more and more popular among the buifd ers at the yards of the British navy. The Merseo has had hers doubled in height, while those of the Blake are not less than fifty or sixty feet, reaching as far up as the tops, n is said that the result, as far as appearances are concerned, is any thing but pleasing. The Value of Sleep. General Lord Wolaeley, England's leading soldier, is a man of simple and absteminous habits, and is an emphatic advocate of sleep. When he is his own master he goes to rest between 10 and 11 and is up before 6. He is a sound sleeper and can sleep at almost any time and under any circumstances, which is, no doubt, one great secret of success' lor m war, as in politics, the man who cannot sleep might a? well retire from the running. "You cannot put in your time more profitably than in sleeping " Lord Wolselcy says, and the sayin is one that may well be taken to heartby all hard workers. As long as you can Meep you can always renew your strength. It is when sleep fails that your balance at the bank of life is cut off ffcj Things fllfpi: Paid 3 1 Dollars Doctors, paid 31 dollars doctor's , In one year, and rmQ v-. vUf-. v all the medicine she had t0?e E-1 r-emaie rteeuiator riiri . cr o. treated by the best phys ,UCrJl lief-Bradfield's Female olV-? more good than all the ohll attJr - Mrs. ELIZA DAY?S Have used Bradf.etd's Fema,' can recommend it to all my f ' R!-'; wuaiEYEjV BnADMELnRpr.rt.T 1 Sold by all Druggists. . .
