of the latter, too, perhaps, though

ASED USE OF OELEY
The liking for celery is always, we
think, an acquired taste. It is within
the memory of most middle-aged peo
ple when it was very rarely put upon
the table,and even then eaten by com
paratively few. It is probably the
value of celery as a nervine that has
stimulated much of the increased use
of it. The crisp pieces of celery do
not differ from other vegetables in
being hard to digest, but unless di
gestion is very bad that also may
need such stimulus as a hard job like
this may prove. Most people find
that they can better digest a very
hearty meal when they have eaten
celory with it.
PLANTING ONIONS FOB SEED.
Onions :i endure freezing without
being injured, provided they remain
undisturbed in contact with the soil
until thawed. Taking advantage of
this, seedsmen plant onion sets for
seed late in the fall, ridging the soil
over them. In the spring, when th6
soil thaws, these ridges are leveled
down, when the onion shoots burst
through, send up their seed stalks and
bear their crop with very little work
to be done by hand. The seed is
much surer and better crop than can
be had by -spring planting of the
onions, which are always later than
those fall planted.
CITY HORSES WINTEBED ON FARMS.
It is quite a common practice of
come city horsemen to put their horse
out to board on the farm during the
times when they do not have use for
him. This is generally done by send
ing him to some near-by place,so as to
have the horse handy if wanted for
use. But near a city, with ready mar
ket for all it grows, the farmer cannot
afford to keep a horse much if any
cheaper than it can be kept in the
city. The horse owner must go fifteen
or twenty miles from the city, wbere
farmers have much coarse- feed that is
not easily marketed. Here their horses
can be kept after a fashion as cheap as
$1 to $1.25 per week. He will get a run
at the straw stack, some corn stalks
and a little hay once a day. If the
hay is clover, which it is quite apt fo
be, as that is less salable than timothy,
an idle horse wilt do very well on this
feed. But if grain be added to the
ration the price will go up rapialy,
especially if some care and grooming
go with it. Two dollars and fifty cents
per week will usually got better feed
and care for a horse on tho farm than
a dollar more wJI secure for it in city
boarding stablesL-Boston Cultivator,
vaccIN~ATING LAND.
Research has demonstrated thatthe
soil of our fields is literally teeming
.ith bacteria, which, according to
soe-.ent eg,erime'nts may be
present to lG~extent of 45,000,000
per gramme (the teaety-sixth
part of an ounce) of soil;ai~'ht
these bacteria are largely instrument
al in conducing to the -successful
growth of vegetation by preparing,
in forms suitable- for assimila
tioi by the plant, the different food
substances it derives from the soil,
says the Quarterly Review. The lat
est application, in the domain of agri
culture, of the great principle of in
oulation, is in many respects of a
more striking nature than anything
yet accomplished by this linsl of re
search, and consists of the inocula
tion of the soil with pure cultures of
bacteria for the purpose of promoting
pant growth.
Inoculation of a soil with these cul
tures, on a practical scale, may be af
fected in either of two ways. First,
the seed of the crop it is desired to
inocnlate may be inoenlai:ed before it
is sown. This is effected by making a
watery r.olution of the pare cultiva
tion, immersirig the eced in it, and
subsequently drying it; or, secondly,
t may be effected by inoculating a
quantity of fir c sand or earth in the
same way, and then spreading it
over the field and subsequently
working it into the soil to a depth of
about three inches: Naturally, a
point of considerable interest is the
economic question of the cost of such
treatment. It is interesting to learn
that this is extremely moderate, as the
expense of inoculating a field in this
way amounts to the very moderate
sm of five shillings per acre. This
cannot be regarded as expensive, and
contrasts favorably with the expense
of nitrogenous fertilizers.
POULTET ENEMIES.
On broiler farms rats are generally
the worst enemies,,and in order to get
the lead on these pests a half inch

many while living in Virg
bought and trained a collie dog to
keep all iarge birds from alighting on
the prcmises,and from that time on w&
never lost a chick by them.
The three enemies most common 1
in the country are wenseis, minks and
sknk. It is said that if a place
abounds with mice the weaselarareiy
catches chickens, but after they once
get a taste they will go at the work
wholesale. They simply suck the
blood and pass on to the next. It is
seldom that they visit the same yard
two nights in succe ssion.
The mink is the most dreaded. He
generally carries off a portion of his
prey and tries to secrete it. A peculiar
ity of the animal is that he has hidden
his prey, and if he misses it is apt to
hunt eroand for it. He is then easily
caught.
Then comes the skunk, a visitor
that generally chooses a dark and
rainy night. It will eat all the refuse
meat and scraps that can be found,
and when the supply runs out will
feast on the chicks, not even forget
ting the old fowls. They eat the
chickens in the coop, and never carry
any away with them. As they invari
ably return, thoy can be very easily
trapped.
It is a bad practice to set poison .for
any of these enemies. No matter how
carefully it is placed, there is danger.
We once knew a lot of grown fowls
poisoned by eating a rat thathad been
poisoned. If properly concealed, a
trap will do better and safer work. It 1
is always well to carefully look over
the coops every now and then, and
never allow the smallest hole to go
uupatehed. --Farm Poultry.

I find that .yerseys are best adapted
to this purpose on my farm to get
best returns, writes C. B. Lyman.
Roomy stables are necessary, well I
lighted, with good ventilation, kept
clean and free from odors. Give the
cows plenty of dry bedding, keep
them quiet, comfortable, and content
ed, and make them familiar with your
presence. Feed regularly with good
rations. My practice in winter is. to
milk the first thing in the morning,
then give a ration of good hay. Af
ter breakfagt, the cows are turned out
for watering, and the mangers and
stables thoroughly cleaned from the
night's litter. Then a ration is given
of about two quarts per cow of a
mixiture of equal parts of corn meal,
wheat middiings and cottonseed meal,
following with a feeding of hay and
then corn st-over. The cows are then
left to themselves until 3 p. mn., whea
they are turned-ont again- forifatse
and exercise, followed by the same
course of feeding as in the morning.
When at pasture, the cows get grain
at night only.
Great care must be taken in milk
ing to have everything neat, the bags
clean and free from dirt and dust.
Milk quickly and to the last drop.
Carry immediately to the dairy room
.d thoroughly strain. If set in shal
low pans; tie-talk niirt~:id twenty~
four to thirty-six hours in a tempera
ture of about seventy degrees. by the
submerged process forty degrees,
or it is separated at once. Either
plan makes equaliy as good butter.
After the cream is properly ripened,
it is churned, the buttermilk drawn
and the granular butter is washed in
biny water and again in clear water,
then weighed, worked in a butter
worker with three-quarters of an
once of salt to each pound of butter
for pnrt of the lot, while the rest is
-salted to snit the taste of customers.
It is then put in one-pound prints,
wrapped in paper and set in a cool
place for market.
Now comes the most difficult part of
the business--getting your customers.
Notwithstanding the fas-. ion is
largely for crenmery butt there
are still many pe'ople who pi .r pri
vate dairy butter and are ' ling to
pay a better price, because they get
butter that is firmer, less watery and
will go farther and last longer than
the butter made at the public cream
cries. To secure those customers re
quires patient, hard work. If you arc
near a village, large town or city,sell
direct to the consumer and save all the
profit for yourself. When you have
secured your customers, serve them
Ifait.hfully ad well,give them a good ar
ticle every time, strive to please and
they will stand by you. Serve them
regularly so that you can be depended
upon at a certain day, at nearly the
same hour in the day in summer heat
or winter cold, storm or sunshine,
and your efforts to please will be
rewarded by better prices and a con
stantly increasing demand for your
product, It is thirty years ago that
th writer started on a ;.eekly drive of
fifteen miles to raarhet his product,
taking up the busines' started by his
(father about twenty-live years before,
suppyizg many of the same families,
year. He has rarely missed a trip
and no week hae passed but that the
customers have been supplied, and it
is very rare that .any one finds fault
with the product or the price.-Amer
