Parsnips should be thinned to about &en inchea apart; Swede turnips six to 'night inches,Cerrets may be thinned to one inch apart tied, when large enough to uee, alternate rots pulled, leaving the re- mainder about two inches apart. Garden beets may be aimilarly handl- 'ed, but the anal distance in this UM skoulti be about four inches. As beet tops make a very delicious early green vegetable, thinning should be done so that these tops may grow -to a useable size. The soil should• be kept cultivated and never allowed to bake or harden. This is particularly true with peas and beans if a tenaer, succulent crop is desired, • Beans, however, should not he cultivated: when moist with either ram or dew, as the plants; if injured tinder these conditions, are particularly subject to bean rust (the spores cif this die - =so developing in the injured tis- sues). Corn that has been sown in hills should be thinned to three or four plants to a hill, if the hills are two to two and a half feet apart. Cab - bap and cauliflower plants require eighteen to twenty inches .of space t each plant in the row, and the row should be two and a half feet apart The soil should be kept well hoed t Conserve the moisture and encourag rapid growth. Where space is limit ed tomatoes may be grown in rows th.xee feet apart and the plants eighteen„ inches apart in the rows and tied up to stakes. Corn; t't3matoes, =cumbers, squash, pumpkins and melons all grow best on a lights warin soil. Five or six cucumber plants ntay be grown in a hill, the hills spaced about three feet apart; squash and munplcit three or four plants in• a hill and the hills six to eight feet apart. Where the soil is ,•ansi warni c space Iirnited, hills of cucumbers, squash and pump- kin may be planted between alternate, rows of corn. Potatoes should lie - thoroughly cultivated to conserve all possiblo moisture; "ridging up" also supplies the tubers with loose soil in which to develop. However, in areas where there is a light summer rainfall, level cultivation will conserve the limited '1 nboistura more sa is actotily.

Paris green andahrsenate of lead have been found very satisfac- tory poisons for the beetle and can be applied at the rate of- one ounce of Paris green to four gallons of water, adding one ounce of lime to neutralize any free areenic present. Arsenate of lead adheres better to the foliage than Paris-geeen and may be applied at the rate of one ounce to a gallon of water, if the paste form•, ,is used, or one ' ounce to two gallons if the powdered form is employed. Bordeaux mixture may be made up in small quantities in the folteiving manner, employing wooden pails for mixing the spray. In each gallon of water .dissolve two ounces of copper sulphate (bluestone), slake one pound and a half of quick lime (unalaked lime) in one gallon water, stir thor- oughly and then add one pint of the lime water for each gallon containing the two minces of dissolved bluestone.

The Hens of light breeds may be pro- fitably kept for three seasons; those of the heavy breeds for two seasons. Milk is mo substitute for meat, for it is not sufficiently concentrated. It is impossible for fowls to drink enough of it to take the place of meat. When fed with animal food, milk performs excellent service. Turkey eggs are ,nearly as good as hens' eggs, and gee.se eggs are pre- ferable to either for till culinary pur- poses. Duck eggs have a rich flavor, but are not so desirable to eet eine. Hotvev,er, they are excellent for all purpose's of cookery. Killing poultry. by stabbing in ,the mouth ie the most humane method, notwithstanding that there are folks who believe the method an act of cruelty. When a f owl is stabbed in the' ineeth the brain is penetrated and the bird at once beeomes insen- Fidel° to pain. This conclusion has been reached by authorities ftom the fact that there is teem struggling than when the head is cut off. Hens that are laying are not likely to accernalate fat; it is when they are not laying that they do at, Keep - hog hens in good condition does not mean that they must be heavy. Fat- tiness alcme is desirable wheel they are being made _ready for market, Good layers are bred up and not fed up.

Each yard of gravel to make a 5 to 1 mixture of, concrete will require four sacks -of cement. To figure the numbet of loads of gravel (each load assumed to be a cubic yard) necesshvy to put in a foundation, multiply the entire clis- tance around .the wall, plus the length of the cross walls -if there happen to be cross walls -in feet, by the height in feea by the thickness of the wall in feet, and divide by 27. To the retult it is always advisable to add about 10 per cent, for waete and good measure.

Practically a gains are to be obtained it beccimes load of sand will be needed for the necessary to feed some grain feeds same. in addition to the pasture crops, At present prices of grain feeds it will probably pay to feed from one to ofie and cine -half pounds of grain daily to each spring pig that has the run of seitable • grass and forage crops. If the pasture crops fail to make satisfactory growth more grain must be supplied, for there is no economy in allowing the pigs to become unthrifty before the corn crop is ready. Still farther economies., in feeding may be made by turning the pigs on the field as soon as the corn is fit for "hogging clown." This will save a number of days' time and more feed- ing value will be. obtained from the field than by huslcing the cor» and feeding it to the pigs later in the season. advantage: Each fowl can pick out the grain most needed. This was called to the attention of the writer by seeing a hen that was out of con- dition. She would not eat corn read- ily, but would pick out the grain she was in need of, Corn seems to be the grain most desired by poultry, but too -much has a tendency to put on fat rather than produce • eggs. Therefore,' if the hens are given a mixed -grain ration, after consuming the core in the mixture they will select from the other grains those -best suited to their needs, • If this year's colt is to the develop- ed into a good horse, now is the time to begin; If the weather per- mit, tho young colt and its mother should be kept on Pastime as much of the timo as possible, Life on pasture increases the milk flow of the mother and permits tho yoling colt to get the efiereise necessary for its de- velopment.

That is the law of its life without which there would be no hope, for that is the seedtime of the 'acorn. New the harvest will come, for seedtinie and harvest is the order that God has made. • How long it is in coming! A lit- tle eboot appears through the ground, to be eure, but•no one would call that an oak tree. You could snip it off with two' fingers. Another year passes, and you Molt at it again. It is a little larger than before, but still not an oak tree. An oak tree should be, two or three feet in diam- eter and strong, like a pillar of marble. This is no larger than a man's thumb. A generation has passed away. The small boy who saw the acorn fall and who watched it grow year after year is an old, white-haired man now, sitting on the porch of his home. Out in the yard children are playing. They are his gmandchildren. They have -a swing hung front the limb of a great oak tree, and in the shade of its wide -stretching foliage they have their playground. How happy they are! How many jolly times they have had under that tree! About it have, gathered all the joys of childhood. The oak tree has a place in their lives with father and mother ancl home. It has al- ways been there, to them; but the old man, in his reverie on the porch, remeinbers the fall of the acorn and the years of a long life that have pas- sed while the harvest of that seecl- time was coming to perfection. •There, is seedtime and there is„ harvest in every life. There is home training. There are school days. There are hardships and disappoint- ments. There are joys and sorrows. There are successes and failures. There are \temptations met and over- come.

Timothy and red clover are th standard hay plants which universe ly are grown together. The clover contributieg the bulk of the hay aro the year after seeding, aria the the othy is furnishingt the bulk of th hay the following year or years. Sup posing that a fanner hat a field, o mixed clover and timothy, wha would be the best time for him t cut it for hay? The clover develop =lily and is ready to cut some On before the timothy has reached it best stage, Shall the farmer cut th h,ay when the red cloverals in it ;Mille, or shall he wait until th timothy is at its best? The 'tame is: Cut when the clover is at it best, notwithstanding that the tim othy mixed with it may not be as wel developed as might bo desired, fo the reason that the clover is the MOT valuable part of the mixture. 33 cutting early, the clover is given thanee to recuperate and to prod= O remunerative second crop, which i might fail to do if the cutting fo hay is delayed too long for the sake of the timothy. In case tiniothy forms the prineipa part of the .hay crop, which it gen erally does two years or more aftei seeding to hay, it is important to handle it for hay in' a proper Man ner. Timothy like most other grasses has a period of its e'wn when it has the kreatest feeding' value and when he bay made from it is apt to ermath the maximum feeding value er acre, This period is the time taf blossoming. At that time, timothy is tidiest in flesh and milk producing onstituents and, if cut for hay when ti bloom, the best quality 'bay may onsequently he realized. It is a wits- ake to believe that better crops may e secured -If cutting is somewhat cleared. Some slight increase in the ield may be obtained but what is ained quantity is lost in quality had feeding value pound fc& pound. 'Under the circumstances, early utting of timothy for hay must of eceseity be recommended as the ost economical method of securing a hay of the highest possible value, Old barbed -wire makes splendid re- inforcing for concrete. .A Handy 'Tool for Farmers. One of the tools that always i thought of as a•mechanicts tool is a c hack saw. Now I find that such a t saw is about the handiest tool I have around the fartn. si They cost front 50 cents to $1. for y •,a good frame and some blades, and g save that in time and bother in a little • while. I like the adjustable frame, as it will take most any length of a blade. It is also handy to buy longer a blades matt then, if they break, bore m O hole through the end and use the shoot piece. For my own work, how- ever, I like to bey the short blades - eight inches Or less -as they do not break so gutckly. The breakage is a more of the expense than the wear- ing out. • . a There is a blade on the market P which does not break easily. It is called flexible. It will bend a good deal beiore breaking, and will be serviceable until worn 'out. I find that the number of points or P _teeth to the inch makes a difference ca in the cutting. Vatil lately I have Iv had .14 points to the inch. Now I get g 24 points, and lake it better for every kind of work. Any bolt that turns in the wood that it holds together, or a piece of iron, --can be quickly cut Off with a hack saw, / have cut small pipe§ off in a burrY, or cut a hole in the side a a -pipe With a hack saw, If you want to put a cut -mat On your ma- chine, this saw will save the price of the garage inan's Work, and you - can do the job in a hurry by sawing o V-shaped hole in the tide of the exhatisl pipe. -t -.E.
