Some Model tanning '
Things 4eto and Old About the Hospital
'firm at Northampto7j.
In these days, when there is so much
real and !alleged extravagance in state
expenses it is a pleasure to , look over
_ the far connected with the insane
• hospital at Northampton, Massachus-
etts, a st te affair that, in the words of
Asa Wri ht, who has inanaged it for 20
years, " oes not have to block at the
door of t e state treasury eyery winter
for a fe thousands more." It contains
at prosei t 330 acres of land, a good part
of whith borders on Mill river, and is
divided 'uto 150 acres of !cultivated
land, 10t of pasturage, and 75 of woods.
The ori al farm in 1858 I contained
about 19 acres, and. additions have been
made te this territory from time to
lime, 90 acres having been added from
the Eno Clark estate, and 12 from the
Fowleroperty within two years.
r
More ou -door improvements ' have been
il
made' o the estate this season than
during a, y two years since the _ state
put-, up the building and fenced it.
very -thing produced on the , iamb. is
weighed or naeasured, anal its value
most accurately estimated and recorded.
When Mi.. Wright began his reign the
grass land had produced_ 40 tons annual-
ly, as noir as could be estirnated. Now
the weight of hay from the Elaine land
• is 130 tens. A single meadow of 40
acres which is as fair to look upon as
any in Western Massachusetts. There
are between three and, four acres in
that meadow, lately seed d : down,
which formerly could barel produce
half a ton to the acre. The first crop
this year 'for the -whole piece was seven
tons, and the rowan weighed, three
more. The land had, however, been
dosed with some 25 loads of barn -yard
manure to the acre,. The whole hay
product of the farm was 179 tens, or 25
more thasa..In 1877. Mie Wright was
forced to buy 52 tons during the year to
feed his stock, but in ayear or two he
expects t1se able to raise all the hay he
needs. The stock now on the farm
many oxe , 18 hogs, 21 ewes and. an
consists citfl 83 cows, eight horses, as
average amount of poultry. There
have been killed during the year 38
.hogs whose dressed weight was 14,451
pounds, ie over seven tons of pork. Mr.
Wright bilVs 100 sheep and a car load
of steers every year about this time,
and he kills off a steer, four Sheep mil
two hogs each week, so that the hospi-
tal familyof 430 patients and 70 em-
ployes is easily kept in fresh meat dur-
ing the, `winter. A great saving is
effected by doing all the butchering on
the premises. 1
,
The other products of the , farm for
this season, aside from hay, are in de-
tail: FiftCen tons of green and 40 -tons
of dry corn fodder, 4 tons of oat straw
and half 4 on of wheat, 600 bushels of
corn, 250 of oats, 15 of wheat and. 75 of
broom -corn seed. There were 2,002
bushels of potatoes, although a crop of
3,500 bushels was expected, considering
the anaountaslanted, 550 of carrots, 537
of beets, 250 of onions, 575 of' turnips,
and 35 of parsnips. There , were 114
bushels of Lima beans in the phell and
the same quantity of common beans,
as well as 89 bushel S of green peas and
162 of green -sweet corn on the ear. Of
tomatoes there were 152 bushels, with
108 of lettuce, 122 of cucumbers and 31
of summer squashes. The 'asparagtks
filled, 33 bushel -measures, the , pie -plant
t
21 and th beet greens 80. The winter
squashes veighed 2,710 pounds and.the
melons ,150 pounds. There were
4,000 heaL of cabbages, 24 bushels of
currants, six of pears and two of
quinces. The apples of the farm fill
1,100 barrels, beside those which were
taken out for 100 barrels of cider. The
veal kille 'within a year dressed. 873
pounds, a id there were 117 small pigs
sold besi •e what were raised. There
were 485 •urkeys who made their home
on the f rin and 87 chickens. The
"heads a d plucks" of 37 cattle were
used up, beside 10 roast pigs. The
amount o• wood cut on the ptrm was
185 cords, and. the broom-bru h grown
575 pounds. Enough bre° -corn is
raised for the needs of the concern, and
so econo iota is the ma,nage ent that

Praetie 1 vs. Sentimentl Farm
Life.
Poets have sung the deligbts of: the
p
farmer's ife in strains so e - chanting
that one might wonder why, all the
world ha not forsaken every other pur-
suit and etaken itself to the t tilling of
the soil. But the farmer himself, in
the unshaded hay field, or plodding in
the clayek furrow at the tail of. his plow,
with a free -holder's right sticking to
each boot, or bending with aching back,
between the coin rows, or breasting the
winter storms iu the performance of im-
perative duties, looks at his life from a -
different point of view. To him, this
life appears as full of toil and. care and
evil ehanees as that of any o91&r er toiler.
And true it is, the, life of an ordinary
farmer is hard, with too little to soften
it—too much of work, too littl of play..
But as true is what the poe sang- so

bandmen if they could but see their

A True Sto f a Horse.
A few years ageofficer of our
army was station da in Boston. He
soon found that hi fine horse Charlie,
o which he was v ry fond, would be of
n use to him in t 6 city.
So he sent him to the country.. In
t e pasture there «ere several horges,
a d among them ne poor, forlorn old
h rse, called Padd. ,'who was constant -
1 teased and worn d by the other more
in sky horses.
When -Charlie, w i o was a superb ani-
mal, arrived, what o you suppose he
did?'Did he joint e others in torment-
ing poor, harmless ld Paddy? No, very
far• from that.
As soon as he sa how the old horse
was treated, Char e lost no time in
aking himself his erotector. Heguard-
e4 the trough, and would not la the
o er horses have a drop to drink un -

Turnips for Cows
r. Nathan Hart at a recent agricul-
tu al meeting in Connecticut, in advo-
ca ing the use of untips for feeding
m ch cows, says: "A few winters
since -I was feedin common turnips,
and when the suppl was exhausted I
had the curioSity to estimate the value
of turnips per bush:1 for feeding pur-
poses from the ret • s that I actually
received from the 'silk, We were then
getting six cents pe l quart for our milk.
The diminished,flo of milk resulting
frorn its discontinu nce shows that tur-
n' s were worth 25 cents a bushel to
feed cows. I refer o the common 'fiat
or field turnip. Bi t as to their saving
hay, I do not think they do.. I think
th4 act as an a terative, and their
usewill cause the c w to more perfect-
-1y digest her food It seems to be
adapted to the wan s of the cow, and
preduces a good dig stion. I feed just
before milking." r. Hart practised
feeling the turnips ust before milking
at night. Immedi tely thereafter the
las feed of the day s given. He could
not find that they i duced any bad odor
in the milk, but 'MI ught it important
to begin feeding the gradually and. to
sl wly increase the iianount to the,efull
fe d, and also impo 'twit to feed them
ju-t before milking. 1
