In general there is no practice that is iu common use without some advantage, and this applies to the deadening of the timber in tliu first eleariutf. VVIiere timber is scarce to deaden it is uu economy, for otherwise ilie tinnier is Durncit ami destroyed. 1 have several ohl Holds 0.1 which tnerc is a largo quantity <?f standing timber, once of no value, but now worth more than the cost of clear in:* for the lumber ami firewood in it. Timber will keep sound many years, and where there is no market for it and a possibility of a future value, it is advisable to kill and leave it for future use. The common method in tho South is to leave the largo timber which is not in the way of growing crops, and after a few years to seed the land to grass, and gradually clear it ml at leisure. There is 110 damage or beue'it to the land in any way by leaving the timber to staud.? New York Times. W'AKM WAT Kit FOIt COWS.

Tbo perfect bronze turkeys should have black and glossy plumage, and tlm*o from sereo to eighteco months of age should weigh between fourteen and sixteen | pound*. The eoelf? ?' ? ;; zz~z ?^u suoulU turn the scales from twenty to twenly-fleo pounds. Tbe marks of ago are generally unmistakable on bronze turkeys as well as upon other poultry. The legs especially grow scaly its the birds grow old, aud when five or six years of age they turn to a light pink hue. They are als3 less lively to actions, and act moody and tamer v The color of thoir plumage is also a pretty good guide to tbeir age and purity of atrain. Tbo plumage of n young turXcy will sparkle witb golden bronze nud purple hues, which cannot be mistaken. It shines nnd glitters in the win us if it cuuie out of the glossy black color of ithcir feathers. The downy feathers lie .close to their bodies, and the whole bird Is trim and pretty looking. There is an appearance of general quickness ami 'activity about them, which is not noticeable in poor breeds or in old turkeys. When the cocks anil hens have been RClectcil for breeding purposes it should lie remembered that the quality of the thick is to bo kept up year after year. To do this the cocks are more essential than the liens. Young liens always partako more of the male parent than the female, and a full-bred cock will often transmit all of its good qualities to the young of a half-bred turkey hen. Part of the lloek should he kept over every year for future breeding |*prposes, and only the best hens should be selected for this pur|>ose. The color of the plumage, sizeaud goueral activity of the hens should influence one iu this choice. Then it may often be necessary to purchase one full bred cock, for this is the best way to keep up the strain of the family and prevent deterioration. (.Jsite a number of (locks of bronze turkeys have lost nearly all tbeir characteristics by lack of this precaution. They need new blood and outside strains to give more vitality and strength to tliein. When this is neglected the turkeys gradually become common ordinary turkeys of the barnyard.?American Cultivator. KAHM AN1? OAUDKN NOTKS. Pcrkin ducks do best where there is no water. cannot be produce 1 without limo for the shells. The earlier the pullets are hatched tho sooner they will begin laying. The beginning of the year is a good time to begin keeping accounts. In small yards two cocks aro worse than noue on account of lighting. Iu-breediug is the father of a good deal of swine trouble. Change boars. Extra care is needed with the chickens that arc hatched early, but it will pay. Success with young chicks demands warmth,dryness, liberal feeding and pure air. A few days in the sprir.g will make a considerable dilTereaco in the price; fryto be early. Never leave a horse after driving in (he mud until his feet and logs arc rubbed dry. When tho fowls arc confined, as they must be largely at this time, scabby legs will be more prevalent. The best market usually for large turkeys is duriug the holidays; after that medium fowls sell the best. Tho colt needs salt and the host way to give it is to let him have free access to a manger or box which contains salt. Teach the boys in a practical way that the farm is the foundation of their success in life and they will not flee to the city. With comfortable stables the horses will not sutler. Hut the more comfortable the stable the more the horso needs a blauket when left standing out-doors. Why not work the stallion? You want the colts to work, and if the sire spun-is his life in the stall doing nothing won't he bo likely to breed laziness into liis colts? What is the use in paying twelve to twenty dollars' service fee for a colt fro 11 a good horse aud thou making a scrub of it by roughing it through the first winter? Oats must be very high in your locality if you cannot atfor 1 to fee l the colt and calves some. In fact, if you have young animals that are worth raising at all, you cannot afford to go without feeding oats.
