HOUSE. FAKIH A3 GARDEX,
Tin New i'jiigland Fanner says The amount of'hay made in New England this Summer will probably amount to live millions of tons.
Tin: a on says that in summer-pruning or disbudding, it is also worth while to watch for shoots pushing stronger than others, and always to take them out. This is the only way by whieh shoots of equal strength can be encouraged in every part of the tree. This is particularly true of grapevines. If a shoot once gets the start of the others, in strength and vigor, the others will zradnallv u-t. weaker.
A couuEsroxDENT of the New England Farmer says that for the purpose of trapping the rose bug he has planted among his four or five hundred grapevines, some twentv rosebushes. On these roses the buns cluster, and both roses and bugs can be readily picked, early in the morning. into a pail of water. In this way the grapes are protected with little labor, and in a few years nearly all! A

crescence and the trees put out healthy
branches below it. He burns ail .branches of diseased trees removed in pruning.
A COUKESI'ONDENT writing to the Canada Farmer, says he keeps a dairy of 20 cows, the milk being disposed of at a cheese factory that last June he sowed an acre of corn in drills, and began cutting and feeding to the cows daily the lirst of .Inly. When September rains came, he omitted the corn-feeding four days, and the result was a diminution of 52 lbs. of milk a day. The corn-feeding was again resumed, and in four days the cows gave their customary quantity of milk. The increased flow of milk doubly paid, the cost of the feed given.
Tiii:' it is A is says: "The best plan to adopt, to prevent, horses from kicking in the stable, and one successfully pursued in racing and hunting stables, is to nail or tie up securely to the travist post, or other parts against wdiich the horse kicks, a thick, firm coating of whin! or furze. The decided inconvenience occasioned by coming into sharp contact with tue sharp prickles will speedily quiet the most vicious stable-: kicker. But the furze must be kept up
for
a considerable time, as when:
removed a determined kicker is apt to return to his bad habits. "Many horses rub and even kick in the stable from itching as much as from vice. This, of course, is particularly the case whilst the diet is dry and stimulating, i*. icj apt to be the case with hard-worked horses during winter. J.f such itching is sus-1 pected, give the animal a small dose of aloes, allow an ounce of niter every week or ten days in a mash, supply daily a few roots or some bran, and in cold, frosty weather avoid wetting the horse's limbs, which can be kept perfectly clean with the use of the wisp and dandy brush."
The "whin1'or "turze" we have not in America, but have many prickly plants which might be used. The! thorns shoul¬ be too large or stiff' so as to do ttfie horse injury. J,
THE advantages of pruning fruit trees'to have low tops are thus set forth in the Missouri a A riculture, by "C. H. M." "I believe there are ten reasons to one why

.discussing. Let
us call then everything under three feet, from the limbs to the ground, of the peach, plum and cherry, alow-top tree and everything under four feet of the pear and apple. "The following are some of the chief reasons for training trees with low heads. They resist storms better. This is especially important on the prairies across which the wind sweeps with such violence. If a tree is trained with a low head, its shade will keep the ground around its roots moister, and protect itsj trunk from the burning heat of the .sun. They cau be trimmed more readily and to better advantage. The frait can be gathered more easily. The amount of material required to make an additional foot of trunk is thrown into the body of the tree, making the limbs of more service to bear fruit."
