Any remonstrance against exclu sire cotton planting would now come too late, and it is useless to remonstrate at any time. "Cotton on the Brain" is not a curable dis ease. All that one can do is to wait till those who have contracted it shall have died off,giving place to more sensible men and a more rational agriculture. We presume as much cotton will be planted as the labor and means at command will permit. Well, whatever you do let it be well done, so as to se c.ure if possible, a perfect stand without replanting. Mellow beds and even rows are essential to good cultivation. A fine toothed harrow is an excellent thing to run over the tops of beds. It may have a cross-bar behind the middle with a triangular piece of wood attached, point down, to make a clean even trench for the seed. This facili tates the first working very greatly. Never tolerate zigz-ig rows ia your fields, whether of corn, cotton, or potatoes. ROOT-PRUNING FOR CORN1 AND cOT TON. It seems jo be the opinion of many farmers that root-pruning is a good thing for their annual crops. It is true they do not put it in exactly this form,but they plough deeply and closely, and cut off a large proportion of the roots of their cotton and corn, especially the lat ter, every time. When the soil is moist, these roots are quickly re produced, but there must be in the mean time a loss of vigor in the plant. In dry weather the ef fect is often disastrous, the plants immediately "firing," and all hope of a good crop being cut off. In the first working of corn, however, run close to the row, and if the land requires it you may run deep, and if the corn be as young as it should be, there will be no danger of breaking the roots. All after workings should be shallow. In some cases, a cultivator with the front tooth out, and the frame so contracted as to bring the first two side teeth close to~ the coru, may be used with advantage for the first working, double team straddling the row and working both sides at once. SHALL WE "BAR OFF" OUR COTTON? When cotton is well up it must be worked. We must "run around" it, as the term is. Some do this with a turning plough, running the bareclose to the cotton, while others use a scooter or sweep. Is the deep, close siding, as done by the turning plough. necessary or de sirable ? This depends -upon the nature and condition of the soil. Where the land is heavy and the beds have compacted by be.ating rains, we think the barring off a useful and very imupor tant process'; but on light, loose soils and where the beds were freshly made at the time of planting, close, deep siding with any implement, is worse than useless. THE VALUE OF A QUART OF CREAM.-"A Farmer's Wife" de sires to know what the value of a quart of cream is when compared with the price of butter per pound. In former times she has measured and weighed, and proved that a quart of cream would make a pound of butter, and she had bought it and always paid the price that but ter was worth at the time. The following is the result of a few ex periments :-The first week, from fourteen quarts of cream there were madeftifteen and three-fourths pounds of~ butter ; tile second week, fromi fifteen quarts, seventeen pounds; third week,fourteen quarts, -- RED CLOVER AS A RENOVATO OF THE SOIL.-Hion. Frederic Watts, Commissioner of Agricu ture, writes in the "Monthly R< port" for February and March: "Many ex.mples are given of th renovation of worn and apparentl worthless soils, and the increas of fertility in fresh but unpromisin lands. Fields that have been cu tivated exhaustively for twent and eveni forty years, have bee restored to origial productivenes; not by guanos and superphosphate at $60 to $80 per ton, but by ine. nensive local resources, the cheape. 11w(t mostreliable of which is foun in clvering. In one case in Bu ler countV PInnsYlv.1aU, a sectio of thin, gravelly Lind, ot which was thought no one could secure decent living, came into the poi session of German immigrants nominal rates. They cleared o the brush, ploughed, cultivate( furned under green crops; save every fertilizing material availablb never duplicated a crop in five c six years' rotation and that tract : now a garden, and from worthlies: ness has advanced to the value < $100 per acre and is yearly bt coming more productive. Thes owners, in some cases, have raise and educated families, live coir fortably, ride in carriages and hav money at interest. In other ir stances in which the use of clove has been invoked, swine-feeding i the clover fields has been made valuable means of soil improvemeni In the South, a region which man northern writers on agriculture ac sume most erroneously to be unsuii ed to grass culture and whic Southern farmers have strangel, neglected as a meat-producing se tion for obvious reasons, a new er is dawning, and clover and orchar, grass are in many places found t be sources of immediate and heav profit and of greatly increased fez tility. HELPING TO HATcH.-Can yo render the chick advantageous assis1 ance during its hatching ? Yes, mot assuredly. The eggs of some varietie: particularly the Asiatic, are sometime exceedingly thick shelled, the she "pips," and here the little bird breathe its last, if help is not given. Tb~ fine membrane becomes glued to hir and contracts, and it, with his down covering becomnes, as it were, a coatc mail to crush out its life. Notic< and if the hatching is slow, have a eye to your nest until the businmess through with; for sometimes it appeai as if epidemic. Many chicks go b the board in this way. Hclp shoul be rendered ; so take a small sized bot kin, and carefully thrusting its poii a short distance under the nmembrau and shell, gently tear the first and crae the latter as you proceed around t1 circumference of the egg. If the she is very dry, drop a few drops of tepi water at the point of pressure. Haa ing taken off the top of the shell, dro about ten -drops of warm water aroun the body of the chiek,and put the egg,z it now stands, under the hen, the ope side uppermost. Behind or under th fluff is the best situation. This dont the chick is, nine times out of ter safe, and will hatch vigorously. [Poultry Bulletin. FARMERS, KEEP AccoUNTs.-Fa: mers who never keep accounts and< ourse are nearly always in debt, yea: ly have enormous store bills to su: prise them. They doubt the honest pf merchants, and families, are b rated for extravagance. Receipts an expeuditures are never noted; the pr! fits and losses in any brauch< farming are unknown. Unconscious] debts multiply, for it requires mue less time and ability to dispose of mnoi ey than to acquire it. Accounts proi erly kept would admonish them whe to sp'end and when to check up. Car lessness in one particular is apt to fo ter and beget carelessness in others consequently such farmers have litt: system in the building of residence barns, or out-houses. Fences are poo y kept up, and a systematic rotatic of crops is seldom practiced." [N. Y. Fanner. MARTINS.-"I had a martin bo near my orchard this season, I observe the tents of these caterpillars, formin on several different apple trees, whic were neglected through the hurry farm work. but to my surprise th< all had disappeared without my hel: Having a wild cherry tree near m orchard, which had been much troi bled with tent wormis, I noticed tI martins in great numbers flying aboi this tree. In watching their motioi I soon discovered that they were d vouring the tent worms. Hence could easily infer what had becon of those on my apple trees. If at one would free himself from this pes it can be donec, I think, by keeping a number of martin boxes ini or ne his orchard." [Cor. ('incinnati (hizette. .?Pisellaneons.

At the a earnest solicitations of some of my .friends, in an unguarded moment t I allowed myself to be announced as candidate for the office of Jus e tice of the Peace. Previous to Sthis fool move I had been consid s ered a decent kind of a man, but e the next day when the Bugle u came out it was filled with ac ycounts of my~ previous history f that would have curdled the blood of a Digger Indian.

I had starved my l deaf old grandmother to death It and ther sold the remains to a e soap factory.
