FARM AND GARDEN. ' HAY-MAKING. A Discussion of the Subject Containing ! Suggestions for Next Year’s \Work. While it is a little late; says a writer in the Ohio Farmer, to give advice for making hay, a discussion of the subject may result in benefit, from the fact that it is' fresh in the minds of farmers. Making hay does not consume the time -or take the hard labor it did some years ago, yet in a ride of some ten miles through my county, during the haying season, I was forcibly reminded that some of the more recent time and labor saving conveniences are not generally used. : : } Of the more recent improved implements, the hay loader and hay fork take precedence. For using the hay fork in stacking some kind of a derrick is necessary, on which o run the fork. The cheapest amd most convenient is a tripod of poles six or eight inches thick at the butt, three or four inches at top, and thirty feet long. Have a bolt twelve inches long made of three-fourth Norway iron, 8o as not, to break. . Bolt the poles together like an oldfashioned beef rack.. Bore the hole ‘'with a seven-eighth or one-inch auger so the bolt will go through easily. Also bore a two-inch auger hole three or four feet from the butt of each pole, so as to run a fork handle or something else through, to turn and lift the poles by. Lay two outside poles across the rick bottom, the butts on the side you wish to stack from; the butts about twenty feet apart, and about eight feet from side of rick. Dig a slanting hole just Q - L - c 7 (z\)\ : - b ; & ! o - 7 O S: / | ’ﬂ‘*— = FilG. 1. sufficiently deep for the butts of the poles to catzh when you raise them. Lift up the poles when bolted together as high as a man’s head, and place a board or piece of rail under to hold them up. Fasten your fork rope to butt of middle pole, taking the rope across the rick bottom between the other two poles. Hitch your horses to the rope, a man standing with the butt of each of the two poles to keep them .from slipping, and your team will raise the derrick easily. When the butt of the middle pole comes within eight or ten feet of the rick bottom, unhitch your horses, and two men can take hold of the poles and put them any place desired. FKor the heavier of the two poles dig a hole about a foot deep; for the other poles a mere notch in the ground to keep them from slipping will suffice. The butts of the two poles should be about twenty inches from the rick; the butt of middle pole at such a distance as to bring your fork over the center of therick. Attach a pulley to the top of the middle pole, and one to the bottom of the largest pole; attach the fork and horse, and you are ready for work. Some may think the hay would all fall in the middle, but the ricker can take his fork while the hay is suspended in the air and shove the hay any place desired. We build ricks 36 feet long, Forests are rapidly disappearing and every farmer has not poles on hand. For a mast take a 4x4-inch tough piece 18 feet long (e, d, in Fig. 1); eight scantling 2x4, and 12 feet long; four scantling 2x4, and 8 feet long; a piece of 2-

' Fig. 2 shows one side of the derrick. K K (up and down) are 2x4 pieces, 12 feet long; H G, 2x4 and 8 feet long, the lower one enough longer-to make M N 2 feet long. H G and M N are placed between K K and secured with halfinch bolts. The other side of the derrick is made the same. Fasten the two sides together with the cross-piece, as shown in Fig 1. Have the blacksmith, to make the collar for the masts to turn in at O, the rings to fasten ropes at C, and the iron pin for the bottom of mast at D. The parts should all be bolted together, so as to be taken apart and put under cover from season to season. The blacksmithing and bolts will cost, here, one dollar, and a handy man will put the derrick together in two hours .and a half. To raise the derrick let the end (D) of maBt rest on the ground and drive stakes at bottom of derrick; raise with ropes, and when raised fasten ropes and bottom of derrick with stake; lift up the mast apd place an iron pin in the hole in 2-inch plank at D.. The pulley at bottom of derrick ischanged from side to side as you wish to change the turn of your mast. ; : Demand for Sheep, There is a lively demand for good rams of the mutton breeds, and those who have rams wonld be in luck if they knew how to advertise them. We are constantly having inquiries for rams, A correspondent recently said inquiring for a ram of a certain breed: “‘lf you can tell me where I can get one conveniently, I will pay you twenty-five . per cent. more for him than the ordinary price asked by the breeders.” There is a rage for L"a.ms. and this rage is among the common farmers, who read the wltmlv?:rm But the sheep u«m reeders seem to.think, as a rule, that amwmosmtm “&L‘"&'ﬁ;“‘ﬁ in those Journals that circulate principally ~among professional breeders.

POINTS OF A DAIRY COW.

How the Practical Dairysman Views a Dairy Animal, )

The praetical dairyman has small concern for fancy markings. The points of a dairy cow in which he is interested are those characteristics which usually accompany excellence at the pail. It is a. mistake to suppose a ‘‘cow is a cow,” whatever her form or characteristies. Many are fit only for the butcher’s block.. While it sometimes happens that a cow having all the marks that indicate excellence fails to fulfill expectations, yet the exception proves the rule. This non-fulfillment of promise may be due to organic or functional derangement or to undevelopment of the .lacteal organs during growth, owing to insufficient nutrition—a. matter tvhat should be bobrne in mind by those who are raising heifers. In buying a cow for dairy purposes, and depending largely on external appearances in making a selection, it is wise to place the greatest stress on the udder, the paunch, and the appetite of the animal. There should be a well-developed udder if a large quantity of milk is to be secreted. The teats should be set well apart and generous in size. . If a cow is to give large quantities of milk or butter she must be a hearty feeder. She can not convert small quantities of food into large quantities of dairy products: The dainty feeder will give very dainty returns indeed. A large body is a fitting accompaniment to a vigorous appetite. 'This is the factory where grass, hay and grain are turned to butter, and the accommodations must be ample if large returns are expected. The dairy cow should, in general terms, have a refined, feminine look, the skin should be mellow and pliable when rolled up by the hand. A wedge-shaped form, thin neck and small head are the natural characteristics of animals that are valuable, since in their case superfluous bone, muscle and tissue are placed where they will do the most good—farther back where the feed is being converted into milk and butter. Size of the ‘‘milk veins,” a golden’ color in the skin, and waxy horns are points well worth noting, but of more importance is the disposition, which should be gentle and not easily becoming irritable. These are traits that should belong to the dairyman himself -as well as to his cows, but when they are common to both, with other conditions favoring, it is certainly not unreasonable to look for success.—American ‘Agriculturist, -

CORN-FODDER CUTTER. A Handy Home-l\ludé Farm Convenience . —Try It Once. ; J. A. Sanborn, Franklin,- Neb., writes the Orange Judd Farmer: The contrivance here shown for cutting cornfodder is made as follows: Construct a sled of 2xB inch planks ‘7 feet long for runners, with three cross pieces 84 feet long framed in, the front crosspiece being 2x6 inches and the others 2 x 4. The sled is floored with inch boards, the front ends of which are cut to fit the back of a scythe-blade, which is placed at a. The heel of the blade rests on the front cross-piece for about a foot while the point is"inserted in the hole in,runner at a, or about 6 inches in front of cross piece, giving a square iy - Cely. el — P ~ %\\\\\\% ) CORN-FODDER CUTTER. cut at the place where the blade strikes the hill of corn. B and c¢ are seats, and the machine is operated as follows: Hitch a horse to each runner and drive astride the row. The driver sits ate, the /assistant at b, and, as the blade strikes the hill of corn, the latter catches it and lays it in a pile on the sled. When it is large enough it is laid off in windrows, and ean lie and cure or be set up in shocks as you choose. From five to ten acres in a day can be cut with this'machine. : : How Fertility Is Wasted. : When I see, says a writer in Farm and Home, the water in ravines discolored from the drainage from the corrals which border them T believe somebody is paying dearly for hisimprovidence and laziness. There may have.been some excuse for first settlers locating their feeding yards in sheltered places along the streams, but this practice ought to have been abandoned by farmers long ago. Of course such yards are .cleared of manure free of expense to the owners, but this incurs a great loss which many do not count. The corrals should be removed from the ravines and placed on high ground. In this way all drainage from them will be of direct benefit to the land. [ such places are necessarily bleak shelter should be erected. If unable to build barns and substantial stables put up wails and temporary shelters. Keep your stock confined to the yards and stables as much as possible, and bed them well with straw or refuse from the haystacks. Permit no prairie hay to remain in the field because useless for feeding. Haul it into the yard to increase the size and value of the manure heap. My experience as a farmer tells me that manure made and kept under shelter is worth double that made in the open yard, exposed to drenching rains, which take away its mos? valuable elements,

Feeding Horses. An English " veterinary surgeon recommends that those who have charga of horses should be taught that the stomach of a horse is not like the rumen of a cow, a mere receptacle for food, but an essential organ of digestion for a limited capacity, which does not need to be crammed in order to perform its proper functions, and that it ¢an not be so treated without danger to the animal; and that the teeth of the horse are provided for the purpose of masticating the food, and that the food which does mot require masticating should be sparingly, if ever, used. He further recommends that no horse should be put to work immediately after a full meal, and when a horse has done a heavy day’s work, it should be allowed to stand .in the stable until it is cool and comfortable before being fed. A little water may be given, and it a little good hay be put into the rack it will occupy zis attention. and besides requiring proper mastication, will further have the effeet 10 slightly stimulate the stomach to secretion, and prepare it for the rejection of the feed which is to follow. Should a horse require more food than usual Lo supply the extra waste of tissues caused by hard work, give it by all means, but leit be in excess in its albuminoids, and let the horse be fed oftener and not ins creased quantities av & time.— Horse aad Bighley .

THE TWO BROTHERS.

Old-Time Rocks That Recall Valiant Winthrop and Dudley.

On the east bank of the Concord river, within the limits of the ancient town of Bedford, may be seen two bowlders, which for historic significance far exceed many monuments of New England unadorned by art. - : They were doubtless deposited here during the glacial period, and centuries later were selected by John Winthrop, the eminent first Governor of Massachusetts, and Deputy Governor Dudley a 3 the boundaries to their farms.

In 1637 the General Court, then so liberal with the unexplored lands, granted to the Governor 1,200 acres and to the deputy 1,000 acres. These eminent men came up to view the lands and locate their farms in the following spring. _ L ‘

- After a short conversation they landed from their birch canoe and took possession of their lands. :

By the incorporation of Bedford, 1729, the Winthrop farm came wholly within the town and by an addition of territory, in 1766, a part of the Dudley farm fell to Bedford.

‘Thus the “Two Brethers” belong to Bedford. They remain unchanged by the hand of time or man, though eight renerations have moored their boats at the base when paddling up and down the Concord.

Thoreau was a frequent visitor to this spot in his studies of the historic river, and hundreds of Bedford’s sons have stood in peaceful mission on the surface of the bowlders as did Winthrop and Dudley 252 years ago. . The tired city boys often pitch, their tent on Winthrop farm, and revel in the luxury of quiet at the Two Brothers, with an occasional meal of bass or pickeral from the Concord. The founder of Boston did not settle upon his farm, and it is probable that his early death in 1649 prevented a second visit. :

It was purchased by Job Lane of Fitz John Winthrop in 1664 for £230, and paid for by buitding a heme at New London, Conn. i o

The purchaser located upon it with other members of his family and built a garrison for their protection from the Indians during King Phillip’s war, in which he bore a prominent part. At his decease (1697), the farm, found by survey, to contain 1,500 acres, was divided between a son, John Lane, and two grandsons, Samucl Fitch and Matthew Whipple. , / Fiteh became the founder of the numerous family of that name in Bedford and through the country. In the pleasant village of Bedford may be seen a valuable collevtion of antiquities and relics of thes Lane family, gathered by a descendant of Job Lane, who purchased the Winthrop farm and firet subdued its acres. .

There is also the deed of ounveyance of the farm from Fitz John Wiathrop to Job Lane. It is on vellum, woll preserved and legible.—Boston tilsbe.

. MISTAKES OF A DAY. A Sensible Lecture for Young Women De= livered by Edith Ashmorg. When you laid your head down on vour pillow at night you knew that it had been a day of blunders. The tears came into your eyes and you wondered what you had done that made “every thing go wrong. My dear girl, you had made little mistakes by thoughtiessness; you had made the music of life less sweet and done your best to make thatlittle rift within the lute that,after awhile, would make all the beautiful music of life quiet. You began the day by disputing at the breakfast table with your brother about nothing; and you ended it by saying very disagreeable things, making him feel uncomfortable and causing him to leave the table muttering; while your mother wondered why he should speak so to his sister. It was his sister’s fault,’'for she expected everybody to give in to her ideas and felt wronged when they didn’t. .

Next, when you went to practice and were in the midst of a beautiful sonata, you were reminded that the dusting of the parlor was your duty; and you grumbled and did it ungraciously, and even now you can remember how hurt your mother looked as you banged things around the room and wondered why you couldn’t have the same time to practice that other girls had. Then when one of your girl friends came in, you made her unhappy by telling her some disagreeable things that had been said about her, and which you thought she ought to know. There is no reason in the world why people should tell each other disagreeable things. You sent your friend away hurt, and with a curious feeling in her heart that you couldn't really be so fond of her as she thought, or else you wouldn’t have made’ her so unhappy. At the dinner table you contradicted your father, you complained of your food, and you were as unpleasant as only a bad-mannered girl can be at the table. When somebody started to tell a little story you stopped it in the middle by saying that it had been told so often before you couldn’t stand it again. After this, you dressed to go out, were ill-tempered, broke strings, sent buttons flying and complained of all your belongings. Then you went to see a girl you knew your mother didn’t like you to visit. You stayed there and héard two or three scandalous stories, and came out feeling as if you had eaten something that had left a bad taste in your mouth. You forgot a book you had been told to get; you didn’t care to go into agrocery shop and leave an order that would save everybody at home a great deal of trouble, and you carried your temper back with you, although God Almighty’s sunshine rested on you and ought to have driven it out of your heart. You sulked all evening; you played the piano or read and managed to make things disagreeable for everybody. Now, when your head is resting on the pillow, you are thinking of this and wondering why it all went wrong. - ‘ My dear girl, you may have a hundred admirers; you may count your lovers by the tens, and your friends by the thousands, but you will never have but one mother; and when you deliberately go outof your way to hurt or neglect her, you are committing an absolute sin, one thatin years to come will rise up before you and make you suffer agonies. When your own little children are’ about your knees you will wonder apd fear if justice is shown if they will not tread on your heart as you did on hers. Try to do better to-marrow. The mistakes of to-day, it is possible, resulted from your getting out the wrong side of the bed; but be wise and see that it don’t happen again.—Ladies’ Home Journal. S

- RAILROADS IN CHILIL Operated so as to Produce a Maximum Degree of Discomfort. The New York Tribune. correspondent, who is exploring South America, writes as follows of railway traveling in Chili: ‘““The Chilian capital is approached from either Valparaiso or Los Andes by the Quillota Valley opening betwegn the Andes and the maritime range. There is a railway owned by the Chilian Government and operated on the English plan. The cars are square compartment boxes, into which passengers are crowded until no seats are reserved for the late-comers, who are compelled to sprawl over the baggage littering the floor. There is an extra tariff of a dollar for the transportation of a small trunk in the baggage-car, and consequently every native travels with his effects in portable form to avoid payment of these charges. I have counted as many as a dozen' pieces of small baggage belonging to one travaler, and the ayerage certainly is not less than sevens All this baggage is heaped up in the compartment-car, so that it is impracticable to change one’s seat or even to gain one’s footing when the last belated passenger, with his bundles, sachels and band-boxes, is in: and the tickets have been examined by the guard. At the railway junction of Llaillai, three trains are emptied into a large refreshment room, where a breakfast is served with something of the bustle and confusion of an American railway station. On returning to the compartment-car, every passenger has to clamber over the baggage mounds and to regain, by gesticulation and argument, the seat which some other traveler, possibly one of | the previous latecomers, has seen fit to occupy in his temporary absence. This is the English railway service adapted to this southern latitude, and it is operated so as to produce a maximum degree of personal annoyance and discomfort. At the end of the :journey a passenger whose baggage has been carried behind the engine, where it has not been in anybody’s way, is compelled to employ and fee a railway porter to hunt it up, and possibly another one to'put it on a coach.
