Rural New Yorker Tna lirt requirements to secure ft good eatch of grass teed, il sown iu tne spring, f s to hare the gronnd in good heart and tilth. It may ba abundantly fertile and yet fail ol a Rood csica, because not prop erly piocghed, harrowed and pulmlzj.i', ready to receive the seed. So also it may be rery well prepared and jet lacks fertllity to cause a good growth. First, if the axibeoil is not a sU ft clay, plough deeply t d uniformly. After ploughing apply at least ten (twenty would be better) twohow loads of manure, and then harrow Until ail is as fine and mellow as "an ash heb?," then, if grain ia to be sown wi h a dxill, be aare to nse ooe with a grass seed attachment behind. Bow cot less than tea qcaris ct tinothy and foarqusjtao c.jver mixed, to the acre, and after so vin , rol With a common land roller. If grain is to be sown broadcast, so must the srraw saed Great caation should ba used in sowiog broadcast that there should be no wind and a little experience will show o ie about the quantity 'o throw eich time. Where stable manure cannot be hsri, enper-phoephate asbea or bones may be used to great berußt. If I wera to saw teed on vinter-wbeat 'ound I know of to steer way to et a good catch than by sowing when the ground a frozen sufficiently if render the surface open, ao that when it thaws the parts will clcs e, coverln; the seed. Saveral years ago I desired to sow seed upon three acres of winter wheat. I set the teeth of a farm drill a3 nearly urright aa possible, fi.lsd the fertilizer attachment with finely slaked um, aud my jrras8-8eed attachment with eeeJ, then drore so that the tetth ran between the rows of wheat. !",. t'-iits acres I put ,'ortv-iive bushels of Blake 1 line, and three pecks each of clover and timothy seed, aad I hare never regretted the expeinsnt or expense. I then applied tha roller and that left it perfect. The wheat waS an uncommon yield for this section, and tie catch of grass seed was perfection itself. I am of the opinion that wh'ra a good catch of timothy is des red, especially upon wheat ground, there ia no better time to tow than about Sept. 1. This exa to ba nature's own tim, and one seld im fails if the ground ia wen prepared. I prefer sowing grass seed with a drill If the attachment is btbind and then rolling after sowirf. Tta cause of so much failure is too deep sowing. Nature gives ns one of the rery best examples of teeming. Watch the itray head of timothy sheddirg its ripe seed and tee the revolt, a perfect mat of Bod unequalled by any sown by man. I find barley one of the best eprirg grain to aed afur. yet if ail things are in perfect condiiiou i;lnrs are very rare. HOW TO PRKSKK7I5 TOES. Some rrac ical Hint Concerting tha D iteases cf Frnit Trees. The Practicsl Farmer. , Kvf ry tree and vine planted ia subjected to, jf äse and the attacks cf insects. If all tea ri-ifcties of fruit trees were disad alike ime remedy for prevention could be devieJrt that wsuld be safe and serviceable but the climate and s ... i l sometimes affects the conditions and reader the methods practiced by fruit-growers In one aenicn HLUjccesstul in another, thus calling for different mancgement in dlfiVrent licaliti". The peach, which formerly flourished as well in Pennsylvania and Ne Jersey as in Delaware, has proved uaproü. able of late years, owirt to the yellows. The borer has done great damage, but the borer can bo prevented if the trees are carefully watched. It has been demonstrated that the yallows is the result lol fitanMcn of the soil not that tha ton utciiutAj becomes aterite. bat the elmena essential to that Wealthy growth of the tree and production of aiuit have cot been tnpplied. As a pcoof of this feet it may be mentioned that In come sections of New Jersey the fruit growers are again g'virg their attention to peach growing, as time has enabled the roil to accumulate and store up the elements best adatted for that purpose. The euceees of the Delaware peach growers ?S dee to their adoption of all the ad vantages ne?e93ary to success. . and the avoidance of the mistakes committed elsewhere. Artificial fertilizers have done much to prevent diieases ol fruit trees, a3 by their use the growers can supply the needed requirements in any form and quantity desired of the essential elements, which is DC I tne case when reliance la placed exclusively upon barn-yard manure, which, by Its decomposition in the soil, somaiimes Induces the d seaee which it is sought to prevent. The yeilpws attacks peach trees in any climate, but'aing'.es out those that are impoverished and of feeble growth, though it ia contagious when brought in contact with healthy trees. The blight is the great enemy cf the pear tree. It haa been foond that the dis ease attacks these trees that have been forced too rapidly in growth, and that It will not do to heavily manure and cultivations trees before they begtn to bear, thtJttst conditions beinz a lieht grass crop in the orchard, assisted by artificial fertilizer ompose J largely of poaab. Potash is also beneficial to the peach, and In fact to all fruits, lEcreislcg the amount of Saccharin e matter, although but little potash really enters Into the composition of the frnit. Imrine the period of fruiting ground bone or isperphof phale bas proved bene ficial, the strawberry being an example. iVhila it ia essential that the trees be kept ia a strong, healthy, vigorous growth. more damage has been done by forcing them than in any other manner. Exposlog. the surface soil to the heat of the rui's rays in summer is detrimental, and hence the xalue cf a grass crop in the pear orchard, vmich shades the trees, but such crop must be supplied with plant food to prevent robb"? of the orchard. A cheap lud excellent fertilizer ia made by compck'Ung mart, lime and old sod, allowing the oaaa to reach a fine condition before applying to the orchard, while stable rain are, though combining all the elements of plant food, should never be used until thoroughly decomposed, the fresh material beinz too beating, as well as containia j bacterial life detrimental to ice Csa. The peach orchard is cultivated differfnüy from toe pear trees. It is now claimed that the aame culture given corn answers for thi peach, but nothing will avail to win success unless the trees are carefully pruned and the borer prevented. There ia no reason why the peach should not flooriah outside or Delaware, aa its rnlti ration recently Jn New Jersey demon strafes that many of the obstacles hereto foi enoounterea are one ratner to 1m1 proper management than to other ia r uences.

figure ia undoubtedly extravagant, exsept in a few exceptional cases. They are ex K

etile nt food for cattle, sheep or homs.and in the production of milk, when fed to cowa, are claimed to be equal in value to bran. They are sometimes eaten raw or civied, and are often used as pickles. Tteir chief value is as food for ho?, who will do their own fcaivestlng. By many they are claimed to be the cheapest and healthiest hog food raised, and that when fed to brood tows, or where thy a-e permitted access to them, bo h they and the!r pigs wilt tb rive. It is also claimed that hogs fd all the artichokes thev want, will not injure meadows and pa tu -es. Thy ran be used both in the spring and fall. Pref iId.k end thawing several times will not spoil tbem, so it is not neoe.strv to dig for spring use, as they can be left in tfce ground all thmnga thi winter. To feed in the fall pat a fence around th? artichoke, or that portion to be used, aad turn in the begs about two weofcs after the plants sre through! bliominc:, which in tbis latitude will usually be ab jut lbs 1st of October. The boa,s can dig them out whenever the ground is nor frozen, and ba allowed acccess to the field uatil the &iticr.cke3 commence to grow ia the spring. Culture They reed planting bat once, and little or no culture arter the first year, though to get the best returns they should arcaslonally be changed to a different Held. They should be cnt like potatoes, only smaller, and planted in rows from three to four fee t apar',the wid- r distance being best. Drop about eighteen inches aput In rows. Flocgh the ground and prepare thoroughly, the same aa for corn or potatoes, like which they should be cultivated, it will be time wasted to plant on wet, undrained soil, or very poor, high soil, and the ground cmnot be made too rich for them. In fertile fields they will grow from eight to fourteen feet in height. The second yew bresk up the ground the same as for corn When the plants begin to come up, rnn through them with a cultivator both ways, putting them in hills like corn, and do not be afraid to thin out, as they will not diuridb if growing too thickly. CAIIHAQE PLiKTS.

Iiupostaliü of U!eai-i ilo&s. ? The president last week transmittel to the two houses of congress a ieport frocu Minister Tendletoa at Berlin, dated Jan. 0, 13S8, from which it appears that trlchirxsis prevailed In certain parts of Germany, and that e number of persons have a'ready died from the eflects of ev.ins tne nseat of diseased bojrs gron in that country. He also transmits a report from trie comül at Marseilles, dated l eb. t representing that or a number of moitu3a biahlv contagious and fatal di'eaaa has prevailed among the swine of a large section of France, which disease is thought by the commission of agriculture to be very similar to hog cholera. The president E8J8 it Is extremely doubtful that the law rasse d April 2 1S78, entitled an act to rrevent the introduction of concessions or infectious diseas s into the United S'ates, meets cases of this description. In view cf the danger to the health and lives of our people and of contagion that easy be spread to the live stock uf the country by the importation of swine or hoc prod nets from either of the countries named. he recommends the passage of a law pro hibiting anch importations with proper regulations as to the continuance of such prohibition and permitting such farther prohibitions in other future cases of a like character as safety and prudence msy require. Consul Frank H. Mason at Marseilles says that more than ten thousand swine (Tel in that department during the last four months. Hoots Itetler than Silos: Mr. Collins of the E'mira Farmers' club. es reported in tbe Husbandman, has sought information concerning the value of silage, and with this' object visited many places to exsmine silos and to observe the result of feeding silos freely. He has reached the conclusion that roots are better, and that they could be produced as cheaply, considering the cost with reference to the results. He found no difficulty In obtain ing 1,C0j bushels of beets from an acre of ground much larger crops have been raised. Pi of. Roberts having obtained 2 400 bushel. He has fed roots with some grain and ol Jy five pout ds of hay as the daily al lowance lor each cow. As a matter of be lief, be declared it as his opinion that al rymen ho, used silage successfully fed more train than he with Lit root?. A month ago he gave his cows each a bushel of beets tut in pieces, but tha milx supply was getting soon, so ne oegan iseaing more beets, and kept increasing until the daily allowance was two bushels to a cow. The milk yield ran up twenty quarts under this feeding, and held up, a result that proved tbe value of his be its, which he said he conld produce at a cost of 4 cents a bushel. Care of Milch Cows. lOhlo State Journal. When cows are first turned to grass in the spring, if feed is abundant, they ought to be allowed in the pasture hut a few hours each day for several days in a word, the change of food shduld be gradual. Carelessness on this really Im portant point has resulted often in serious conEequercea. To tie oft repeated question, "snail grain be fed to cows in summer?' the general answer is, "No, not it the animals have an abundance of good grass." The most natural, and at the same time healthful, food for milch cows in summer is the green grass of a good pasture. When shorts and bran are obtainable at cheap rates and grass begins to fail, these may be used to excellent effect in supplementing the grass. Mingled with hay and fed to cows, the milk gives a larger percentage of cream, while the quantity of milk is also increased. It often happens that, when cows aro alving an extra quantity of milk, they In cline to become thin and weak. This condition should be prevented by the ju' dieions use of concentrated food. The strength and condition of the animal must be kept up at au times tor oest results. The Best of the Floweilng Annuals. a L. Burr In Sprlngfleld (Mais.)

Of the hundreds of varieties grown ia ray garden, if I were to choose sir. T should Delect panslea, pinks, petun tea. asters, phlox drumondli and zinnias. Tbe old double slnnia baa been improved

by the addition of bright orange and crimson flowers until a bed of it fairly dazales the eye. Perhaps in no Mower is tlis improvement more marked than in the pansy, the favorite Jiower of all. The size of the flower bas Deen increased, while the most beautiful colorings and shadings nave beea produced. The greatest improvements in tbis flower have been made by .Itagenot and Caster of France, and Wrieds of Germany, who offers fifty-four distinct varieties. Ia asters, Germany excels all other catioca. Tf;e German catalogues contain' thirty varieties, each variety showing from fonr to twenty cobra. Two of the beat are thefaiony. perfection and rose aster; the first contains twenty colors and toe last twelve. They have been brought to such perfection that the best quality of seed will not produce a single or sem.-ioable Uower. of pnlox diumondii, pinks and petunias we fcave a large variety to select from, giving a continuance of b?oom until frost. Tne annual flowers most noted for their frsgrar.ee are sweet peas, j ickey c'ub, ru'gcr.ette, nicotians afhuis alys&um.

The Jersey cow comes in earlier than aoy other, but it is not beBt to allow tbem to breed too early. They should have time to fully mature. Bowel disease must be guarded against among cattle at this season, as the youn? and early grass that may spriog up is too much of a change from dry food. Erorze turkeys are now made to attain the weight of fifty pounds when two years old, which is a largs increase compared with the average weight of the past ten years. Old pear trees that have apparently bsen worthless have been revived by the application of a peck of aalt and ashes scattered around the base. ow is the time to try the method. Make the melon hills now. I'ss pleaty of manure over the surface of five feet in diameter and alter making the hill let It stand until time to plant, then rework the hill and put in the seed. In pruning roses cutting back closely producer, as a rule, ft wer blostoms of finer quality, while from those not so clotety pruned will be obtained a larger quantity of smaller flowers. Furnish the bees on bright, warm days In early spring rye-meal as a substitute for pollen. Any grain ground tolerably fine will answer the purpose. Place it in shallow vessels near the apiary. When dusting the fowls with Insect powder put a newspaper under them. One can in this way gather np some of the powaer for use again, and will be able to see also its destructive effect upon the Insects. It requires more labor to engage in gardening aa compared with farming, but less land ia required. The moat profitable crops are cot those that give the largest yields, but which bring the highest prices, compared with the costThe great advantage from wintering beea in cellars ia that they can be kept at uniform temperature much easier than on the surface. The disadvantages are mice and moisture, and tinder soma circumstances, it two warm, too great con sumption of honey. Beea, if protected from the sum by being sheltered, rarely suffer from cold weather, if the sun shines on the opening to their hives the beea fly out, are lost, andthu&jdepletel the warm baa not warmth enough to protect itself from lntiVDg.Ame uai Cullunioi: The old peachblow potato ia nearly ex tioct AI I lata crop It is one of the beat YaiiaUes ever introduced. It should be

revived by growing the seed in a new Ioca'iiy. It ia well known as a variety that hrs a luxuriant vine, producing its tubers only after the vice growth has been fully completed. The early rose is aJto departing, yet there ara but faw new varieties of early potatoes that excel it In quality, end many others of ths old, tried varieties bate been unequalled. By carefully selecting the seed they may yet be retained. A Missouri farmer bought eight acres of lar d with wheat sown on it. He sowed clover on the wheat. The whe?t yielded three bushsls and a peck to the acre, and there was a tolerab'y fair stand of clover 01 the most of it. lie following year eighteen tons of clovir were cut from the eight acres. The clover was allowed to stand for two years, then it was turned under, and the land sown to wheat. The yteM was twenty bushels per er, and the land has beoa producing well ever since. Thrashing corn Is now much la favor, sajs President Chamberlain in the Mh nnj Vi'',i:,:t,: Item'zed figures have bean given in institutes to show that the thrashing coals no more than the h inking. Also that if the corn and its stalks be well dried boih will keep after thrashing, and that the stalks may be handled with barleyforks much more easily than when whola, and will be eaten better by the stock, while tbe part not eaten will make better bedding and absorbent, and obstruct the hand lirg of the manure far less. Bat tha tbrethii g is hard on men and on the machine, and if the corn be damp both it atdthe fodder will hurt in the storage. A number of experiments made at tie Missouri agrlcultnral college farm showed that cn a moist dirt read it reuqired a force rqua to l7 pounds to move a load of 3 O'o pounds, or 57 per cent, more force than was needed to move the same load over a gravel road havirg a grade of one foot in twenty tight; and that on a gravel or rracadtni'zed road the force needed wss only one fourth as much as that needed on the dirt road. On a plank floor tbe force needed was one seventh as much as that required on the dirt road. This made no allowance for the energy washed by the torse in pulling its feet from the mud or llftirg them over tbe little elevations which are always to be found in muddy reads. It is apparent that many farmers are preraiinz to go into the business of evapciating sweet corn this eerson. Many very plausib.'e statements as to the great preri's of this industry have been published of late, chiefly by thois who have seed or evaporators to sell. Last year the .'" il investigated this matter carefully We are satisfied that there is not enouia cf a demand for the evapora'ed corn to warrant much, if any, increaed in f e supply. Hn any event, it will not pay fa in. er s to go into the "business unless they have eveiy couven'enio for tau Hin g the product and can make it their chief emtloyment during the seasoi. Tie farmer with tne variety of crops usually found on the farm has all he can do at the season when the corn mu6t be eveporated without studying evaoorators. I'm 11I Xi? Y'iil.ir. Tomato plants should be set out about the 1st of June. The k round should have made been very re?, and if it b? free from weei's no further attention will be required. Just before frost the vine may be taien up, with all the earth ttat can be kept adhering to the root, and transferred to tbe cellar, where ail the fnll-g-own tomatoes not already picked will ripen. The ee:8jist has seen perfect ripe tomatoes of most e xcelleat quality on the table at Thanksgiving wtiich had beea ripened in this way. There are so many good varieties of this ve2ptib'e that it is bard to make a se?ection. Ttwr rsr foir 'czen plants may be required in order to furnish a good in pp!y a!l summer.

I.. ha9 enjoyed the sensation of being coltinel and prepared for burial, ssys the Doaioa tilofte. But for an accident he would have been embalmed. lie lives on Smith's hill. and is a carpenter by trads. Soni9 yearj ago he was at work on the roof of a threostory house and had a sunstroke. Falling at his work, he rolled down ths sloping roof and fell, an inert mass, to the 6 tree t below. He waa picked up and conveyed to the cilice of tue nearest medical man. who pronounced him daad. An undertaker was sent for. and soon his assistants were measuiing the corpse and making preparat ons lor tne embalming process, which was considered necessa-y for preserving tbe body for the funeral. That evening a casket arrived with the name of the deceased, age and manner of death engraved on a silver plate. After the body had been comned and the re cm cleared Mrs. Corwin, the mother, arrived, and while laying her head upon his breast she fancied sue detected a motion of the heart. Another doctor was sent for, who, after making a stethoBCODic examination, confirmed the opinion of the other physician, and declared lire to ba extinct. The weeping mother was led from the apartment, and the watchers awaited tha coming of tbe embalmer. The man was celaved co long that when he arrived the family requested him to postpone making tbe incision until the following morning. The morning found the loving and dis consolate mother at her son's bier again, and again did the maternal instinct within her tell her that her boy was not dead, but sleeping. Tbe embalmer came aud dis played his instruments for opening the veins and for eviscerating the deceased. Then the mother refused to allow tbe operation. Iu vain they urged her to accept the verdict of medical science, but she refused to budge, and, throwing her body across that of ber son, Bhe declared she would not leave his presence until all doubt was ended. I he weather was fear fully hot. and it was expected that the con dition of the corpse would oe unenauraoie by the next night, but It was not, nor the next night, and then some weight wa) at tached to tbe old lady a oeuei. More aoctors came, other examinations were made, and at the end of the sixth day a alight pu'sation was felt. The msn was alive beyond all doubt. The heuse swarmed with physicians after that. They came from New York, from Boston, and from Philadelphia, and all agreed that the vital epark had not left the body, although how to fan it into a lifesustaining Hame was a question not so easily eettled. Various expedients were reeorted to, and on the ntteentn aay tne corpse' opened an eye. After that the man's recovery was but a question of time. To-day be is at wore, a netter and stronger man than he ever was, and the silver plate on his coffin, framed in crimson plusb, adorns his parlor.
