\ \ . Jifc. vV ^ phZL: fefeSc^:^ k I Quality T?.*t For Potators. ^ We must learn to gruJie potatoes ac Pr eordiug to quality. There is just as much diii'erence between a mealy and soggy potato as there is between teu-! tlerloin and rum}) steak. The diffi-! bulty is to sort out the good ones. Here is the potato test: Wash them and theu put them in a tub of water. They will all sink. Add salt and the poorer, lighter ones will rise. Add more salt and others will rise. Those which finally remain at the bottom you ca.warrant every time to be prime bakers. Not over ten to twenty per cent, of potatoes v. iil stand the test. For these, your customers will gladly pay extra prices. i Old Oat* Best For Horses. The amount of moisture in new oats makes them much dearer than old when used to feed hortys. The dinerence in price is almost always oT'.et by the loss in weight when tue oats are kept till freezing weather dries them out. J3ut a stui more serious loss froui the feeding of new oats is their laxative effect ou horses hard at work. They also often cause colio in horses not used to them. It is best always to buy some old oats to mix with them, and thus gra loally accustom the animal to their use. If no oats can be had, mix some wheat bran with them, feeding dry, of course, and give at first very few oats, gradually increasing th9 quantity as it is found that the horse is not injured. If this ration is too laxative give some wheat fine middlings with the oafs. These canse a costive condition of bowels, and should not be kept up after the diarrhoea is once checked.?

The same plan may be used to advantage in the regular poultry house. New England Homestead. tuiuvmc1 rcwcr avio*. I am surprised at the small crops of grain, grass, potatoes, etc., that are grown on manv farms. The lack of sufficient good stable manure is largely responsible for this. A few years ago a company was formed and a large straw board factory built at the county seat of my county. Since then every farmer within a radius of ten miles of this establishment fortunate enough to have any straw has sold it at the very low figures of from $1 to $2 per ton. With the money received for the straw, some cheap grade commercial fertilizer is purchased. As a consequence the soils of the farms are H becoming thinner each year from a s lack of sufficient humus to make it V lively and friable. It is a very poor \ practice to sell straw from the farm. J Keep enough stock to work over all ^Traw and rough feed into manure nnd then judiciously apply it to the fieldp. The labor will be more than doubly paid for by increased crops. Another trouble with a great many farmers is their greed for too many acres. How common it is to hear a man boasting of the number of acres of corn or wheat he is putting out, but when the harvest comes he usually has about one-third less acres than at seeding time. It is an old adage that "tillage ' is manure." We have this proven by seeing a held that has had an extra amount of work put upon it before sowing it to wheat. The crop will be much larger than on a held only half prepared. If we expect to keep our farms in a state of fertility that will enable us to grow paying crops, we must concentrate our work upon fewer acres and have them well fertilized. It pays much better to r*ise a given number of bushels of wheat from ten acres than to raise the same number from twenty. By doubling the producing capacity of an acre, half of the land can be in grass, vuus giving it a chance to recuperate.?M. C. Thomas, Ohio, in American Agriculturist. C For Feeding Poultry. ... w Fowls are always and Jorevcr sodding their food when it is "dished out" to them in the ordinarily haphazard way. This is especially true if the birds are confined, and as a large percentage of life-sustaining material thus goes to waste, not to mention the rendering of as much more revoltingly unfit for the stomach of even an ostrich, little matter who the poulterer is, he can ill-afford to do without some aort of a feeding device, of which the ESIBCTPSBEHBSri li | | &mm. l rr:jrfz.Trrr~r--r--jrr-.-.J1.. -. . .-.-. -r.-:-.-r?..-- - \Y one pictured herewith is most excellent p iu every respect. Cheapness and simplicity combined with practicability make it indeed a T] joy to both the keeper and the fowls. j. As can be seeu, it consist? of an or- H dinary wooden trough having an oval top made of pieces of tough, thin boards bent into and held in position by being firmly nailed to the uppers A' of the end pieces, which in turn are y] hinged to the lower parts on one side and hooked on the other. By tlii-* arrangement the poulterer is enabled to "open" the affair like a trunk, clean \\ out the trough aud then fill it again with food. By having the trough divided into compartments, as represented, a whole T1 poultry ration, such as grain, corn, meal, grit, water (in cans or drinking fouutaius), broken oyster shells and st so on, can be very nicely stored there, aud thus it is that the fowls can enjoy A HANDY TROUGn FOR CIIICKEXS. W Tt the luxuries of a lovely table constantly, for not one of them, try as it may, can get on top w ith its feet to pollute the contents. The fact is, the birds can only insert their heads at d, the sides and ends, and simply eat not peck one another, remember, as is the case of an open dish, since the space is too limited tor them to move Li their heads about so as to execute any Tl pugilistic maneuvres. Hence all may come and eat in peace, and that to jl their heart's content, there being never once a "table jar." New York Al Trihnns Dairy Farming. Many Eastern farmers in1 seeking some line of agricultural pursuit that may prove remunerative to some de- i grce are turning their attention to id dairy farming. There are advantages H\ that come from this line of effort, one of the chief of which is an acknowl- J)r edged improvement of the farm. This gr is an important consideration, but not the sole one to be thought of. While *j[ it is best to pursue such course as will W| secure the improved condition of the Tt farm, there should always be a desire as which is laudable to get a fair income u_ as a result of labor performed and of ucapital invested. All who engage in dairy farming do l)li not make it a sucec s, but some do. ni Upon this point Professor Patterson, wl of the Maryland Experiment Station, in a bulletin upon this subject, says: Is "Success in dairy farming depends in really upon three facts the man, the nc cow and the feed." Regarding the ?." man, he should have a good rauge of j knowledge and be possessed of sound be judgment. He should give regular aud proper attention to the business; he should be a keen observer and have a proper sensibility of neatness and Jo' cleanliness; he should also have a ?o mild and even temper. th Regarding the cow, no dairyman should be satisfied with any animals j,, but those of the best; they may cost dc some more, but it muit be rememberea Ibat the cost of feed for a good cow is no inoi? than for a poor one, Ur while the returns are very many times el greater; neither is the care and atten- 01 tion any more for a good one than a ^ poor one. It is a fact that the feed, is labor or care and attention are dispro- ai T>nrtionfite in a poor animal when com pared -with a good one. "c It is not necessary that cows should f<> be thoroughbreds to secure good resuits; excellent animals are found among natives and grades, and it is these that should be sought after at all times. The great object should be to secure those that have descended from well known milk and butter w strains. jjj Dairymen can hardly expect to get d( satisfactory cows on the market, for m one who sells will hardly sell his best N' cows, and as any section of the country advances in dairying and the records of animals become known, the will if fn nnrp.hftfift ^ U1U'J' u"liv""" *v "v "" r ~ CI good cows. tt Regarding feed, it is hardly neces- c( sary to mention so plain a fact as that one cannot expect to secure something t)( from nothing. With good cows but b< poor and insufficient feed not satisfae- m tory results need be looked for. Cows should be supplied with a good quantity of coarse feed of tirst quality supplemented by grain rations. In this e' age of general discussion of proper ra- ^ tions for animals it is not necessary to ti even suggest articles of food, but it is ti important to urge that one be satisfied Jj only with those tjat are recoguized to ;i: be the best for the specific purpose of a milk or butter production. Observing these consideration, the iL farmer who desires to lauuch into the field of dairying may look for a reasonable degree of success; without t( them he may expect disappointment. \ Farm, Field ami Fireside.

A. Farmers' Opportunity. Tbe announcement that farmers can make money in our new colonies and dependencies reminds one that while the professional man makes a living out of the community, the farmer makes it out of mother earth, observes the New York Commercial Advertiser. The farmer is thus the aristocrat of all trad'S. Ills is tbe tirst and most ancient. It is also the most independent. Even if there is no market for his wheat, he has it for his own supper. At the present moment adventitious circumstances all combine to make the farmer's position more commanding. In Hawaii there is opportunity for farmers to beconje sugar planters, and it is about the only opportunity the island affords to white men.
