" ?'" - - ?THE FABBE AND JrAEDEN. THE COLOR OF SOTTED CORN. j - In passing any piece of sowed corn late jb the growing season, it is easy to see what -will and what will not make gool feed. That which has been thickly town, especially on poor soil, is a light yellow color, tasteless, and nearly void of nutritive value. That sown in drills and cultivated once or twice, is large, thickstemmed and dark green in color. Taste It and you find the sweetness that with a little more room and time would be transformed into the starch of the per fected grain. ; ... . ; TURNIPS ASTX) POTATOES FOB POULTRY. According to P. H. Jacobs, poultry authority, young chicks are partial to potatoes, and adult fowls also eat them readily. Save all the small and unmarketable potatoes and boil them for the hsus. It is not necessary to mash them, as the hens know how to eat them withnrrf oac??f?nrp Turn ins nlso make ohear> , food for poultry, especially ducks, and will pay as a crop for feeding in that manner. The mo6t successful breeders of ducks use turnips, cooked and thickened with bran, for ducklings, and serve ss a very satisfactory diet for geese in winter. But little grain is necessary if poultry are well supplied with cooked oats. IUIX AND STRAW TOGETHER. . Those who feed oats to cattle can .save xpense of threshing by giving neat cat. tie their ration of oats and straw coaether. For this reason it is well to ^? leave unthreshed such stacks as have best ind shortest straw. One year we put the unthreshed oats in the barn, but mice played mischief with them, so that this plan is not to be recommended unless one knows hovr to circumvent the rodents. Since then we have either carried fwvm cf<?/ >].- +<-> cfaWn ??c Tvantpf? or trr>n?. ferred a stack or more into the barn by way of the cutting-box. Mice or rats cannot burrow in the chopped stuff. So far as we can discover the grain is as thoroughly digested by cows when eaten from the bundle as when the whole is chopped. The advantage of chopping comes from having less waste than when daily carried from the stack, having the _ fodder under cover and consequent convenience in feeding. The economy lies f in saving the expense ?f threshing and Grinding, for when eaten in the straw there is no bolting?so to speak?of the grain, but nearly all is remasticated and assimilated.?Farm, Stock and Home.

It may take a little more time to tie it first and bank it later, than to have one man handle while two others clo the banking, but it has the advantage of keeping the earth out of the centre of the bunch more thoroughly, and there - are less stalks broken off in the digging and putting in the pit. It also will pack much closer in the pit. More of the earth can be put up against it with a plow, leaving less to be moved with the shovel. It should not be handled when ^ wet, as this causes rust.

The pit should be so covered as to effectually keep out the rain, and have a drainage which will take off auy water which may soak in. It should also be ventilated by openings under the peak of . the roof, which should be kept open whenever it can be done without danger of freezing, unless it is desired to blanch (t out for an early market. Heat and dampness hasten the blanching, but also cause rotting. As the weather grows colder the pit ?hould be banked up until the sides and on/So Vio-co ? wall nearlv four feet thick. and the roof should have not less than one foot of salt hayr or two feet of ;traw, to protect it from freezing. As the demand for celery is greatest, and the prices better, after the middle of December, those who can keep their celery antil that time without danger of freezing or rotting will do well not to hurry the blanching process. It seems that the demand for celery has increased with the increaged^supply, until the amount sold in ojir Targe markets is ten-fold toat j^ndled a few years.

There is rarely sufficient room near any tree for all the seeds it produces tc germinate or for the seedlings to develop into fully grown individuals. Nature is lavish in sowing seeds that the succession of the plant may be insured. Most trees are gregarious, therefore, in extreme youth, from habit transmitted through many "generations. They love company, and really thrive only when closely surrounded. Close planting is essential, therefore, to insure the best results. As the trees grow, the weaker are pushed aside and finally .destroyed by the more vigorous, and the plantation is gradually thinned. This is the operation which is r -always going on in The forest when man does not intervene. It is a slow and expensive operation, however, and the result is attained by a vast expenditure of energy and of g.">od material. The strongest trees come out victorious m the end, but they bear the scars of the contest through life. The long, bare tiuak and the small and misshappen head?the only form of a mature tree found in the virgin forest ?tell of years or of centuries of struggle, in which hundreds of weaker individuals may have perished that one giant may survive. But man can intervene, and Injudicious and systematic thinning help the strong to destroy the weak more quickly and with less expenditure of vital force. Thick planting is but following the rule ot nature, and thinning is only helping nature do what she does herself too slowly, and therefore too expensively. This is why trees in a plantation intended for ornament, like"" those in a park or pleasure ground, sbould be planted tmckiy at first, and why they should then be systematically thinned from time to time; and It is because this systematic thinning is altogether neglected, or put off until the trees are ruined for any purpose of ornament, that it is so rare to find a .really fine tree in any public place or private grounds. Of the implements required to produce a fine tree the a^ is ^certainly the first and most important.? ) Garden and Forest. STRAW, AVr.KPS AND STtUELK. "What use shall we make of these waste products of t^e farm, and how snail we manage th":". f? get t'y most good at least cost from the:n? The profits of the farm are not larce and we cannot afford to let JP anything go to less. 3: we ran by a oare: ful saving of all vegetable matter increase the manure pile so as to transfer ;t few ; acres from the unprofitable to the profitable side of the ledger, it is our privilege and duty to do so. The worst possible -!>e a farmer can make of straw is not to .se it at .ill, and strange as it may "here are thousand of farmers who do this very thing. They thresh in some remote corner and leave the straw on the ground. I have often counted from five to eight of these straw stacks on a single farm, says a writer in the Philadelphia Presi, each containing one year's crop of straw. Good, bright wheat or oat straw has considerably more than half the feeding value of an average hav, and either horses or cattle may be -wintered in good condition with no other rough feed, with a moderate increase o: the ^rain ration. It is best that this increase shall be of bran, oats and oil meal rather than corn. I have neighbors who bore auger holes in the floor of their horse stall to allow the urine to run through, and yet leave stacks of old straw in the fields. I do not only bed liberally in the stable, but cover my barnyard so that it is never muddy and no liquid runs from it. Weeds, corn stalks, potato vines, clover straw, etc., are 3ll packed into the barnyard. We have just cut and raked up all our wheat stubble for this purpose. From a part of the field we got a full two horse load to the acre. Eight acres of our wheat that bad been sown to timothy had made quite a growth, and as the spring was very dry the clover was poor. Consequently foxtail and ragweed made a vigorous start, but we mowed it early and there will not be a foul seed on the field, while the weeds and stubbles will help to keep the barnyard clean and save the urine. The last week in August I visited a neighbor who is a successful wheat grower and found him spreading straw on a field which was plowed and harrowed ready for the drill. He burns this straw and tells me that many years' experience shows him that it pays as well as to manure an equal area. Ilis land is strong and rich in humus, and while this with oat doubt is good practice for him oil thin land it will probably pay better to plow under straw than to burn it. I would always, however, if possible, burn stubble on fields where there has been chinch bugs. It is well on such fields to set the machine to cut high so as to leave enough stubble to burn readily. I have seen excellent effects l'roni burning stubble on land to be plowed for wheat, the wheat in a few weeks after it came up showing to a foot where the stubble had been burned by its strong growth and healthy color. It is a fact, perhaps not known to all, that one pound of the urine of a horse has a fertilizing power equal to six nounds of the dronnincs. and the onlv way we are likely to save this is by free use of absorbents. With goo<l management every farm will furnish enough- of j these, and it is wise to make tight stable j floors and bed freely. Even cornstalks make an excellent absorbent and will decay more quickly than straw. If cut to lengths of from six inches to a foot they make excellent bedding for horses. They crush easily, and the pith of the stalk takes up the liquid better than straw. I scatter the waste of twenty acres of corn fodder over n.y small barnyard each winter to be tramped and mixed with the straw and manure. . By April 1st the manure is in good shape for speading, ana only very close inspection would discover a cornstalk iu it. ^ FAKM AND GARDEN Never allow, the fo.vJs t^^^nhsdy.

Supply the proper conditions ot warmth and variety of food, and fowls will lay in winter as well as summer. It matters not whether certain weeds ire ten or ninety per cent, bad; they all succumb to good culture; all perish by the same process. The first thing to be done to secure a Sarge flow of winter milk is to make the ;ows comfortable; the next to feed judiciously and liberally. There is a never-failing market for poultry and eggs on the farmer's own table, and no farmer can do better than to keep this well supplied. In churning, stop the churn when the butter is in small granules, wash with brine or clear water, and salt with brine or dry salt as you may prefer. Cracked corn is good food when newly rround.

Soak tobacco stems in water to make a strong liquid, then evaporate it on the <team or hot water pipes for keeping off rreen fly in the greenhouse. Stems cut tine, dampened, and la :d about the plants will be preferable for the house, its the vapor and smell is somewhat offensive if evaporated on the stove or register. A practical test will convince the dairynan that his cows are capable of consuming and digesting a much larger amount of iood than the usual allowance. Experiments of this kind will soon denote which of the cows pay the best by noting whether the excess of food is converted into increased quantity of milk or flesh. Cooking cornmc-al does increase its digestibility for fattening hogs, but the increase in food vahfb is not sufficient, with only a few hogs, to pay the expense. Yet, in feeding on a large scale, the cost of cooking the corn meal, with a proper i apparatus and mixing in a little cut clover hay. will be amply paid for in the result. The most convenient and the easiest way to feed fall pigs is to give them whole new corn. While this is true, it is a mosi nazaruuus w;iy iu sum, uitm, I for they arc liable to come to winter . quarters burned out,, lacking in vigor ; and digestive powers, which makes it exceedingly probable that they will go through the winter without a paving gain.

Five little red-cheeked children 3tood upon the dock at Castle Garden and looked across the waters of the harbor anxiously. Their eyes were red from crying. The attaches of the place, from Superintendent Simpson down, all treated the little ones with marked attention, and saw that everything possible was done to make them comfortable.

Alexander King, aged fifteen years, but a boy quite small for his years, was the only acquaintance the orphans had near their home, j and boy though he was, he came bravely to their assistance in their hour of need. He wrote a letter to Mr. Young immediately on rcceipt of his letter summoning his family to America, and informed him that as all ?ve could travel at a less rate than Mrs. Young and the four girls could have done, he proposed, through the aid of the steamship company at Glasgow, to bring the motherless children to America, find their father, and deliver them to him, and then look about for something to do for himself, since It*, also, had lost his parents.

In those limes it was inscribed with the namo f a heathen deity. A vessel bound for Xyra use had uii it the inscription, "Castor and Pollux.'' Theships were provided with authors; Anchors were of two kinds?those hat wore dropped into the sea. and those that were thrown tin on totiio rocks to hold the vessel last. Tin's last kind was what Paul Uluded to when he said: "Which hope we liave as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, atsd w hieh entereth into that within the vail."' That was what the sailors - all a "hook anchor." The rocks and sand bars, shoals and headlands not being mapped' out, vessels carried a plumb line. They would lrop it and find the water fifty fathoms, and lrop it again and find it forty fathoms, and ilrop it again and find it thirty fathoms, thus discovering thiiruear approach to the shore.

Paul is about to leave the congregation to whom lie had preached, and they are come down to see him off. It is a solemn thing to part. There are so many traps that wait for a man's feet.

A How your appetites and passions only an under deck passage. Do no!; allow ttiem ever to come up on the promenade deck. Mortify your members which are upon the w.->r r-1'oTv vonr lower nature anv tliiMg better than a steerage passage. Let wapifuJiieSs walk the deftteas anarmed scn4 % i ff i i i ? utiiw n ri in?irTf!?n tinel, and-shoot down with great promptness anything like a mutiny of riotous appetites. Be sure to look out of the forecastle for icebergs. These are cold Christians floating about in the church. The frigid 2one professors will sink you. Steer clear of icebergs.' Keep a log-book during all the voyage?an account of how many furlongs you make a day. The merchant keeps a day book as well as a ledger. You ought to know every night as well as every year, how things are i eroin?. When the ernress train stops at the j dopot you hear a hammer sounding on all the wheels, thus testing the safety of the rail train. Bound, as we are, with more than express speed toward a great eternity, ought we not often to try the work of selfexamination? iBe suro to keep your colors up! You know the ships of England, Russia, France and Rpain by the ensigns they carry. Sometimes it is a lion, sometimes an eagle, sometimes a star, sometimes a crown. Let it ever be known who you are, and for what port you are bound. Let "Christian" be written" on the very front, with a figure of a cross, a crown anrl a dove: a;i<l from the masthead let float the streamers of Iinmanuel. Tliea tin? pirate vessels of temptation will pass you unharmed as they say: "Thero goes a Christian, bound for the port of heaven. We will not disturb her, for she has too many guns aboard." Run up yoirr flag on this pulley: 'I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God and the wisdom of God unto salvation." "When driven back, or laboring under great stress of weather?now changing from starboard tack to larboard, and then from larboard to starboard?look above the topgallants, and your heart shall beat like a war drum as the streamers float i ?.i *! ? wind f 1>a cirrn of t.hfl cross will lll.lkrt ! you patient, and the crown will make you j tflad. I Before you gain port you will smell tho land breezes of heaven: and Christ, the Pilot, will meet you as you come into the Narrows of Death, and fasten to you, and say: "When thou pas.se.st through the waters, I will be with thee: and through tho rivers, they shall not overflow thee." Are you ready for such a voyage? Make up your minds. The gangplanks are lifting*. The bell rings. All aboard for heaven! The world is not your rc\>t. The chaffinch is tho silliest bird in all thu uartli for trying to make its nest on the rooking billow. Oh, how I wish that as I embark for tho Holy Land in the East, all to whom I preach by tongue or type would em j bark for heaven. What you all most need is Cod, and you need Him now. Some of you I leave in trouble. Things are going very rough with you. You have had a hard struggle with i)Overtv, or sickness or persecution or bereavement. Light after light has gone out and it is so dark that you can hardly see any blessing left. May that Jesus, who comforted the widow of Nain, and raised thedeeeased to life, with His gentle hand of sympathy wipe away your tears. All is well. " When David was lleeing through the wilJernoss, pursued by his son. he was being propnivd to bccome the s;veet singer of Israel.

After a while, they prayed for meat, and the sky darkened with a large flock of quails, and these quails fell in great multitudes all about them; and the Israelites ate :"*d ate, and stuffed themselves until they died. Oh! my friends, it is not hardship,'or trial, or starvation that injures the soul, but abundant supply.- ,J?tHs not the vulture of trouble that eai sup'the Christian's lii'e; it is the quails! it is the quails!

And now give us (for I go not alone), your benediction. "When you send letters to a friend in a distant land, you say via such a city, or via such a steamer. When you send you good wishes to us, send them via the throne of God. We shall not travel out of the reach of your prayers.

The retail liquor traffic is now prohibited in seventy-nine municipalities of the province of Manitoba. Cardinal Manning declares that upon the work of total abstinence depends the greatj ness of the Nation. Fortune knocks once at every man's door, I but she doesn't go hunting through beer ealoons for him if he happens to be out. A liquor officer, in searching a house in Boston, found behind a large lecture an opening in the wall which concealed fifty bottles of lager beer.

A Chicago paper says the danger line is passed as regards the corn crop. Not at all. The danger line will only be reached when the corn is manufactured into whisky. It is reported that in Louisville, Ky., it i? impossible to keep dippers on the public wells because the saloon men have them taken off or destroyed so as to force the thirsty public into their dives. "If you wish for a clear mind, strong muscles, quiet nerves and long life, avoid all drinks but water,"' says a wise physician. We might add that money can be kept in the pocket, and comfort brought to the home A Mississippi town of 7500 inhabitants provides a large number of saloons for the men to get drunk in, but lias repeatedly failed to sustain tbe existence of even one ice cream parlor for the Afreshmeut of wives and children. Tlio same stream of money could not flow in two opposite directions. The International Royal Templar relates an incident concerning a London driyrnan that illustrates the real value of a beer-drinker's health. This man was in the halbit of showing his great strength by taking a full barrel of beer, raising it and depositing it gently on the dray. One day. while performing this feat, he received a shght scratch on his hand. So thoroughly poisoned by beer was his system that iu spite of every effort to save his life he died in three days.

How many boys there are who have not even got the spunk of the fly who refused to walk into the spider's parlor! It does not take any talent to say 'no/' it does not take any education.

You may think that you just do that which does not seem to you to be right to oblige a friend, but let me tell you. you-oblige the devil a great ileal more. Jf somebody else tells you that it is all right to do something that you consider wrong, show a little manly independence and tell hint that though it may be all right for him, if his conscience approves, still yours does not approve, and it would ba wrong for you.
