IIOITSK, FARM AND OAKDEIV.

A. M. RAMSDELL, of Vermont, it is said, raised 2,785 grains of oats from a single grain, ana from 2,-AOU of these lie raised three bushels and ono quart.

IT has been estimated that the actual money lost to England by the cattle plague has been £3,573,000. Of the cattle attacked by the plague, 210,000 are dead.

Soap suds should never be wasted on washing day, but should be poured on the manure heap that is designed for the garden.

FBUIT

A Maine farmer recommends shock corn, cut green, and well cured, as the best food for milk cows. He says he gets the most milk and the best butter by using this kind of food.

sowing

The consequence was that the land re-mained-idle during the entire season. Indecision is a ^ery common disease, affecting people in all class|&?of society*, but nowhere is it more manilest than among the cultivators of the soil.

:=To-day

the}' think they will do this

thing and to-morrow that, and so on' imtil it is too late to do anything. Now, every farmer knows very nearly Svhat kind ."of land and how many acres he is going to cultivate next summer. There are certain kinds of crops of which he will plant more or less of each, and it is just as easy to decide now as to quantit}r and wftere each snail be grown as when planting time comes. Write out this plan and look it over carefully see that the requisite amount of seed is on hand, and if not, where it can be obtained. In fact, have all the plans for next season's work carefully drawn np and placed the^T can be referred to at sTmdmerit's iiotice, just as the architect does before the -foundation is laid for a building. Even the names and quantity of each kind of vegetables required for family use may be decided upon now as well as two or three months hencer The boys or .hired men may be consulted in drawing up these plans, and the work to be done first in spring should be placed first on the catalogue, so that a regular system can be maintained during the .entire season. We believe that if every farmer would lay down a plan in advance, not only as a guide for himself but for those in his employ, he would not only have his work done better, but would avoid much needless confusion.—N~ew

Potatoes can be iissorted, and the best laid aside for planting.: Seed corn can be looked over, and all imperfect specimens thrown oiit: for we cannot expect to produce the best of crops without having the best ol seeds. Flans can be laid for next season's operations, rind we may just as well decide now where each crop shall be grown as to wait until planting time. We have known farmers to be all the spring trying to make up their minds what kind of crop to grow hi a certain field, and then failing to decide.
