What a Deed Conveys.
Judge Benuett, of Massachusetts, gives thd
following on this point: "A deed conveys
the fence standing on the farm, the fencing .-?
stuff, posts, rails, etc., which had been once <
used In the fence, but had been taken down
nlled up for future use again In the same
place. Bui new fence material, Just bought , '
and never attached to the soil, will not pasi;
Standing trees pussasa part ol the land; so do
trees blow or cut down and still left in tbo ^ y\'A
woods where tbfty fall but not if cut and cordcd
up for sale; the wood has then become per- 'a
sonal property. Manure in .the barn jbra or .
in a compact heap ready for Immediate tiset
the buyer, ordinarily takes as belonging to
the farm; thoush it might not be so If the
owner had previously sold It to some other
party and had collected It In a heap by itself. ' ^
Growing crops pass by the deed of farm, un^
less they are expressly reserved, and when It ' ,'"1
Is Intended to reserve those it should be so v. jj
stated In the deed itself; a mere oral agreement
would not be valid In law. Any other
mode is to stipulate that possession is not to
be given untlf some luture day, in which case
the crops or manure may be removed before ;
that time. As to the buildings on the farm, v >1
though generally mentioned in the deed, It 13 , '/
not absolutely necessary they should be. A
deed of land ordinarily carries all the build- ings
on it belonging to the grantor, whether ^
mentioned or not; and this rule includes the ' K,"
lumber and timber of any old building which
has been taken or blown down and been
packed away for future use on the farm. But -A
if there be any buildings on the farm built by
some third persons, with the farmer's leave, -,Pig
the deed would not convey these, Bince the . "V if.
buildings are personal property and do not
belong to the laud owner to convey. The
real owners thereof might move them off, although
the purchaser of the farm supposed --^3
he was buying and paying for all the bulljtv "'
ings on it. His only remedy in such A cas^.
would be against the party selling the pre- , 'fi
rnlscs. As a part of the buildings conveyed,
the window blinds are included, even If they.
be at the time taken oft and carried to th<?'
pointer's shop to be painted. It wduld bo
otherwise if they had been neWly purchased ;
and brought into the house, but not yet >
attached or fitted to It.
Good Points of Shorthorn Cattle*
Northern Tier Gazctla.
What constitutes the superiority of the wS
shorthorn? It is the best general purpose ..-'si
breed; the best combined machine with
which to convert grass hay and grain, as well ./'*
as all the coarse products of the farm, into
beef and millc. its line, compact iorm ana
mild, quiet disposition enable It to take on 1
growth and flesh and produce milk with but
little waste. With its long, well-l-ounded *
body, its broad, level loins, its full-fleshed,
heavy hind quarters and its fine, small head
and neck, it will give to the butcher a much
larger portion of valuable meat than the light- ,'rquartered,
narrow-backed, heavy-necked, flat* ';
ribbed, coarse-boned and big-bellied native.
It Is poor encouragement In this section of
hl^h-prlced land for the stock-grower fo feed ">.q
his fine hay and grain to an animal that, from J
its nervous, restless temperament, will waste
much of it In useless action instead Of quietly . . > 4*
converting it into valuable beet or milkk
And it is equally discouraging to feed fof
tho worth of a beef that, when dressed, will
only produce about fifty pounds to the hundred
live weight ot meat that is chiefly coarse {]
and unsalable. These are some of the reasons ' '3
why the butcher pays one cent or two cents : . ^3
per pound, live weight, more for a model
shorthorn than for the native or other un? % 'V.*
shapely breeds.
Some persons except that b'ood alone, with- . \l
out regard to food and surroundings, will in- '
sure success. The chief advantage in improved
blood is to enable the stockman to reap
more profitable rewards for his labor and capital
invested, where a reasonable amount of ,<*
are with liberal feeding is to be given. It is % ^
the surplus feed over and above what Is re- quired
to sustain life that gives the profit. ^
And the more the surplus the more profit,
where beef or milk production Is sough for,
until the extent of the assimilative powers is
nearly reached. Plenty of wholesome food is
absolutely necessary to profitable results,
wliPf.hpr for milk or beef, with any stock ot
any breed, and a reasonable amount of exercise
for all breeding animals.

Importance of Bee-Cnllure.
Prof. A. J. Cook, of Michigan, says plants
pour out their nectar as a sort of free eotlce or .
lunch to attract bees and other insects the
most Important work in vegetable economy,
the work of fertilization, which largely depends
upon insects, and without which full
fruitage is Impossible. The simple work of
gathering nectar then is indirectly of great
economic Importance. This neclur, which
the bees convert into honey, would bo wholly
lost without them. Only the honey-bees are
abundnut early in the season, and th*y alone
save this valuable food element for man's
good. The activity of bees is wonderful. By
actual observation single flowers are some*
limes visited by bcrs fifty times a day, and
bees have been seen to visit over twenty flow- .
era a minutes. L. 0. Hoot, of Mohawk, N. V.,
extracted pounds of honey on July 2-*, L
collected from bass wood, which had all been
.r.ittmroil hi.' furl v pnlnntrts of hops In Ilistsev^n ''i
days. This is over 100 pounds per colony, and
Hie daily stores of each colony exccedeu four- *7
teen pounds. During the same time there
was secured at Michigan College nearly half
as much beautiful comb-honey from single
colonies. An excellent Michigan farmer.
who has kept bees six or seven years, anu 1
who for the last three years has had from sixty
to eighty colonies, reports the cash receipts
from these bees during esich of the last three
years to exceed those of the entire balance of
his farm.
More Fruit,
Petersburg Index-Appeal.
In the line of fruits of all kinds the Southern
States present peculiar and great advantages
for successful and profitable production.
We could grow fifty times the fruit that we do.
Not one family in a hundred consume a tithe
of the fruit that they should. In some form
it should be upon the tables of All our people
in towaaml country daily. Dried fruit, chu?
ncd fruit and green fruit should be a unlver*
sal diet, in one or more of these forms at least,
everywhere and at all times.
' Hut is it so? How many farmers even havo
put away a supply of apples for the winter;
and how many housewives have dried and *
canned peaches and apples enough to serva
- ?- - ? ftlA
rvcn uir i mi min inifxmo ui...i,e ...v
winter? As a rule, fruit, especially green
fruit, is (lie exception in the country from
now on til! summer again. This ought not to
be so. There is health in fruit, health and
good living to the family that consumes it
regularly and often. There is pleasure and
respectability in fruit, contentment for tho
little folks and joy to the old. And there is
money in fruit. It will pay. As a crop it
pays better than any other on the farm. We
need more fruit, and the far-seeing are going
to have it.
The times are hard. There is no doubt
about tuat, but the man thai is out of debt
should not complain. The soil will respond
to intelligent, timely labor and give food for
both man and beast. The purchasing power
of adollar is much greater than it was a few
years ago. The times demand economy and
constant attention to your business. B<'gin
your next year's work the first day of Jannary
and do not slack up for cold, heat, rain,
fun. or anything else. Pluck and economy
will pull you through even these times.
