T ' Agricultural Notes . ; Millet is specially recommended as a profitable and valuable feed for fowls and pigeons. v . Saturate corncobs with kerosene and bang them on the plum trees in order to get rid of the "curculio." , :' , A thorough dressing of the bushes with finely-ground plaster of paris it said to be the most efficacious remedy for the currant worm. Patent tube eow milkers are pronounced a humbug by English dairymen. They not only lessen the yield of milk, but in some cases have actually spoiled the cows. The pea la the most nutritive of the leguminous crop, and its wbolesomenets a an article of food is attested by its great use in Scotland the country of great men and able-bodied laborers. Keep a barrel of gypsum in the stables where cows are kept, and sprinkle the floor with it after the stills are cleaned. It is a valuable absorbent of liquid man are and an excellent deodorizer. - A correspondent says: "At present prices of milk, butter and yonng stock, there is no margin ior profit in farming, save in the manure pile." There's ) ust where it la and yet farmers don't fail. Manure your orchards heavily and cultivate annually. Corn, potatoes, buckwheat and all root crops may occupy the wellmanured orchard, but on no consideration allow the growing of oats. Oats are almost a sure death to fruit trees of any kind. Few things mark a well kept garden better than an abundance of all kinds of herbs. Now is the time to make the beds. Sage, thyme and lavender grow from slips, which may be set in now, precisely as if an edging of box were to be made of them. They grow very easily. Basil and sweet marjoram must

be sown in a rich, warm border. ' Salsify and scorzonera like a damp, rich son. t , . ;

It is well for the dairyman to remember these proportions: A quart of average milk which has a specific gravity of 10.20 at 60 degrees Fahrenheit, weigha 2.15 pounds. One hundred' quarts ot mux are equal to mus pounds of butter, or il'A pounds of cbeese. For every nundred heads ot cabbage I take a quarter of a pound of black pepper, and put it in a box largs enough to sift out well. Go into the patch before the dew is off, and pepper the cabbage well, two or three times will be sufficient. The worms .go through the leaves and die. , Ouletude for Cow Labor fo Taurus. -. . - I Wilkinson, MoHenry county, 111., In New , lore iriDune.. My experience of over oo years has con vinced me that cows kept in the stable the year round proper stable, of course and thoroughly ana regaiariy staoiea inrougaoui the green-fooa season, ana judiciously lea and handled, may be male fully 60 percent, more profitable than the same cows would be if required to grazein summer, and ex posed to the inclemencies ot a jvortnern climate, as dairies are usually kept. I would grant onlv oonasstonaliv a tew mmtea tree dom in a suitable dry yard, and onlywhen the temperature m temperate, ine vara should be small, -and only a few animals turned out at a time, or they will exercise too violently, or Injure the feeble and timid bv crowding and goring, lhe unaerungs should be separated from the herd when put out for exercise. - If an v of the herd are prone to run too violently, as some will, such should be lib erated more frequently, but should in no case be allowed to become specially wearied or heated, and, as a rule, 30 to 40 minutes is all the time required by the cow for exercise for a week. Tney should always be watered in : le stall, and. if practicable, should have a toustant supply of running water, and that wr:.:u is absolutely pure. I find that the average cow will drink from five to eight times in 24 hours, if the water is accessible, in hot weather. 1 kept a cow in the stall 27 months as an experiment, and milked her 25 months, and after she ceased to milk I continued to feed liberally for eight weeks, when she went to the shambles and "died well." Of a herd of 23, this one was the most profitable. Fe wcowa,or butasma'l proportion ot them, will continue te millk so long aa did the heroine of the 27 months' experiment. If fed liberally, the average cow will generally cease to milk profitably after 12 to 18 months, and the nourishment will secrete flesh and fat. The capacity of the stomach of the cow is of course limited, and as she can only eat so much, if a portion of that is required to supply the physical waste occasioned by muscular exercise, it must detract Eroportionately from the lacteal secretions; ence all unnecessary exertion for the cow should be avoided, and it is conceded by the most intelligent dairymen of the world that very little, if any, is necessary for most cows, though I have no doubt there are exceptions, but I have not seen an instance in which a cow did not maintain a normal condition under the system of quietude recommended. Taurus, on the contrary, is the better for daily exercise, and he is, if well fed, capable of performing a large amount of valuable labor. A three-year-old bull properly harnessed and with a proper vehicle, is capable of hauling all the soiling erops to the stable, and all the manure to the fields, and cutting or ch&ming all the cut fodder for a herd ot 50 cows. The stamina of his get will be greatly enhanced, his labor will bs worth as much as the ordinary farm horse, which costs much more to keep, and if properly worked he will never be vicious. In no animal, except in man, is the adage, "idleness is the parent of vice, "more thoroughly verified than in the bull. I have worked bulls for 20 years, and I never knew one of any breed to be cross if he was propsrly worked. - Is the Breed in the Feeding Trough? , - Rural New Yorker. I Replying to this query, we are inclined to make the paradoxical answer that it is foolish to think it is, and yet dangerous not to know it is. No profitable breed was ever made without liberal feeding. But feeding alone, however liberal, will not make a profitable breed. Feeding, care and intelligent selections are all required for the improvement of farm stock. After a valuable breed is thus produced, its 'excellence can only be continued by a continuance of 'i these.' Nothing is more wretched and worthless than a degraded thoroughbred of any kind. This is one reason why thoroughbreds are not more popular with the "old-fashioned farmers. " They are creatures of high art, and in farming high art and old fashions are strangers to each other. To take a fine Jersey cow, a choice Essex pig, an OxfoidDown sheep, and subject them to the methods that have developed the scrub cattle, the "elm-peelers" and the "fence-sealers" of cow pens and pastures is not the way to show them off to a good advantage. . , The old breeds are tough, for the same reason which the Dutch farmer gave for his wife's resignation to die. "Mine Gott," said he. 4'8be bat to be?'' Now ths very methodii taken to develop the profitable qualities of improved stock, the liberal and varied feed- ! log, the rich pasturage, the warm stables, all have a tendency to lessen . their power of resistance to extreme hardship. It is simply a question whether it is better to have "tough" cows that will make 100 pounds of batter a year, or such as must have more care and better feed, bat will return 300 pounds in the same time. Probably nine-tentha of ths farmers, even of New England, New York and Pennsylvania, have as yet little or no blood of for eign breeds in their stock. Yet they possess many beasts that are good and profitable. Our "native" animals are aj easily improved by proper care, feeding and breeding as those of any part of the world. The judicious in trod action of foreign blood will often hasten the development of desired qualities. but never, never, never will .it ao so unless along with it we take the methods that made It what it is. And with those methods it is simply a question of greater or leas time to make as good or better thoroughbreds npon the basis of . oar "native" animals. . This is moet important to be known, it is not yet by any means ao well known as it ought to be.r ' ' . " '. - Seasonable Hints. The vitality of seeds may be tested by placing a sample of almost any of th "arger kind of seeds or grains upon a hot pi a or griddle. Wben the seeds are good t.rd the Vitality is perfect the specimen will crack or pop open with more or less noise; on tne other hand, it the seed is . not good or the vitality is defective, it will remain still and bank This la a much quicker and surer plan of testing seed than to plant in earth or warm water. To test them in this war It is not necessary that the seeds be perfectly dry, although they should not be too moist. Seeds should not be kept too dry:- an airy bat moderately dry quarter garret is the beat place to keep them. Great Merit. . . All the fairs give the first premium and BDectal awards of great merit to HOD Bitters as the purest and best family medicine, and we most heartily approve of the awards, tor we know they deserve it. They are now on exhibition at the State Fairs, and we advise all to test them. See another column. To Play With a Rattlesnake Is not more dangerous than to disregard a cough. The cure Is simple, agreeable, obtain able every where. A few doses of "Hale's Honey of Horehonnd and Tar" removes the Irritation that produces the paroxysms. Nothing can be more certain or more harmless. No cough or cold can resist its healing, soothing, strengthening operation. Pike's Toothache Drops cure toothache In one minute.

; SAN FORD'S : t RADICAL CURE

For CATARRH This may oertify that I have been a subject . of that terrible disease. Catarrh of the Head and Throat, for some 52 years, canned by taking cold In the month of June, 1825. The attack at that time was so severe that the doctor and my friends thonght I must die. For years and years I have been so sick that life has been a burden to myself and friends. It la r useless for me to say how many doctors I have triad, bow -much medicine I have taken, during all these years of endless suffering, but those who suffer as I have suffered will know thatl never ceased to look for relief, and ta try every remedy that promised it. . . In September, 1876, 1 began the use of SxKroRD's Radical. Cubs roa Catarkh. . No sooner did I begin to use it than my symptoms changed. It cleared my throat. It cleared my heat, it cleared my mind. It operated on my system in a way that nothing ever before given me by doctors had done. How rarudlv I Im proved under the influence of this wonderful medicine those who have known me for years can testify. And now, sirs, to make a long story short. I will Bay I would not exchange tne gooa it nas done me lor the whole woria and all It contains. My memory, which waa . nearly all gone, has returned again, and I could tell of afflictions I have endured too great for some people to credit. I can with a ' clear conscience and the strongest faith ttest to this on the Holy Bible. Gcd bless the man that found out this remedy. SAMUEL SPINNET. Meadow Vale, Annapolis Co., Nova Scotia.
