Liberal Manuring Pars-
A couple of years ago I undertook to
make a small field, which was in rather
poor condition, sufficiently rich to pay
for cultivating. Consequently, I hauled
upon it barnyard manure, chip dirt from
the wood-yard, slaughter-house offal and
refuse, until the ground was covered so
deeply that the stuff could hardly be
plowed under. A neighbor came along
and my methods. field
would b the rest of the farm
kept The yield of potatoes from
the manured ground was at the rate, this
season, of bushels -per acre;. not an
exceptional yield, but a good one for this
locality ; sufficient to convince me, at
least, that I received n batter profit from
fertilizers than if they had been
thinly spread over a larger area. A lit-
ground, made rich and well worked,
will pay better every time than a large
area of poor ground imperfectly worked.
Which Is only way of
that the last load of manure, and the
last turn of the cultivator on an acre,
pays better than the first one. And,
until the capacity of the first acre is
measured, it is folly to apply either to
second. R.

A Lady's Reasons for not

Dairy salt stored in the vicinity of
codfish or kerosene, or turpentine, is apt
to contract flavors that injure the butter
in which it is used.
Put white butter and yellow butter
fide by and tell the consumer that
one is colored, and ho will
take the colored article 900.090 times in
Let nobody worry about the
consumer deceived. Ho is after
the Rural.
Tho Vermont Chronicle speaks of a
dairyman who makes 30-cont butler for
less trouble and expense than are be-
stowed on their product by those who
make 16-cent butter. It is less work and
costs less to make butter in the right way
than it does to do everything out of time
and order and thus turn out a poor
article.
It is neither electricity nor thunder,
nor yet heat that sours milk. But tho
conditions during a time of thunder
storms arc favorable to the development
of bacteria, and these change the milk
sugar to lactic acid, which causes tho
milk to sour. This is according to tho
latest light thrown on the subject,
New Hampshire Mirror.
How did it over come to pass that all
men must sit on tho right side of the cow-
to milk It has been suggested tho
hind sections of the udder contain nearly
as much milk again as the front sections,
and as tho man is much stronger in his
right hand than his left, he should sit at
the cow with his right hand next to
large sections. Tin. looks like sense, and
if were just starting into tho milking
question there might be some heed given
to this argument; but as it is, the
of locating the milker on the star,

and it would take something much
stronger than a logical argument to
lodge the milkers of the country and
learn cows that have ac-
to be milked from side.

informed that it could not be pub-

to it and was told that it was

it purported the ball to be was not

hen Shakespeare wrote these
words perhaps he little thought
one class to whom they would very
forcibly imply was those
who think an editor has so lit-
as to make positive
assertions in his paper without
sufficient proof to
what he says. So much by
way of introduction. Now to the
object for which we started out to
write this article.
On the night of the 5th of Feb-
1800, what they term a fan-
dress and masquerade ball was
given in Greenville under the
of the Club.
Those persons intimately ac-
with the editor of the
Reflector know he never attends
anything of the kind, but on this
has been done before,
we sent a reporter. Next day the
reporter came to us and said he
took no notes, as a member of the
Club had approached him in the
ball room and said they had
a man who was going to
write u, the ball fine
The reporter added that if the
party named failed to get in his
report in time both knew what
a would get
us the names of the persons in at-
etc. We thanked him
for his willingness to serve
expressed as glad he had
taken no notes, for if the character
of the ball was such as to cause
the comments then going around
we wanted no report of it in the
, Reflector.
Sure enough, the week
rolled around and the person
to write up the ball fine
made no appearance with
his report, and we congratulated
ourself upon being spared the
trouble of refusing the article, as
our mind was to do were
it brought in.
The Reflector of the 12th
week after the
contained only an eight line com-
upon the ball, which we will
reproduce verbatim before finish-
this article. Matters went on and
nothing was said that the
editor was personally

evening of the 14th, when R. W.

to our office and asked in a very

year giving lots of news from its sec
of the State and from New York,

The has completed
its second year under the present
management. It started as a little
sheet but in short
time has enlarged to seven columns,
and seven columns show a lib-

DIETARY HINTS.
Eat slowly, and ma your food
thoroughly. Mr. Gladstone, it is said,
gives thirty-two biles to . piece of
meat that he put. his mouth.
Do not wash down each morsel of
food with a swallow of water; drink
what yon want at the conclusion of the
meal, not while it is in progress.
Remember that meat broths contain
little or no nutritive properties; they
are simply mild stimulants. With the
addition of bread, or boiled
rice, however, they become valuable
foods.
Milk should not drunk in copious
but in sips, so that it will co-
in small lump; or and
thus be more easily I. It is best
eaten with a spoon, in the form of bread
and milk.
Do not overload the stomach; it is best
always Io leave the table with the feeling
that yon could eat a little more. The
proper quantity of food eaten at each
meal will strengthen the stomach; by
eating too much you distend and
weaken it.
Never eat when very tired, or when
worried or excited, and never work
mediately after Rest for twenty
or thirty minutes after meals.
By swallowing your food without
chewing it you cheat your palate at well
as your body. fail to prepare the
meat for the action of the gastric juice,
and yon do not permit the salivary
to mix with the starch foods, to
prepare them for further elaboration
and assimilation.

A meadow needs to
pared for a year, or at least some
months ahead, and, as it is a valuable
possession, it deserves careful nod
preparation. It is often remarked
that our meadows are not as good as
those made by English farmers. No
doubt this is true. But the reason
via,, that it is owing to climatic
differences is wholly wrong. It is not
our climate, but our methods which are
defective. In the noteworthy blue-grass
regions cf Kentucky, Tennessee
parts of Missouri, one may see the most
verdant and luxuriant meadows, that
have existed as they now are for forty,
fifty or even one hundred years. It
may be said that these meadows are
fitted for grass, and the grass is
naturally fitted for the soil That is it
precisely. The fitness of the two
each other is perfect. But what
Lilt not something with, i
power of man to control i at
are not changed by human agency, but
they are turned to our uses by skillful
appliance of the right means. A wheat
crop of forty bushels per. acre is a
product on a well-cultivated farm,
just as much as a five-bushel crop is
when the land is permitted to become
barren by neglect of proper cultivation.
And so a permanent luxuriant meadow
is a natural product developed by art
and skill from natural resources. The
English meadows, which are viewed
with pleasure by every traveler, are
made in this way. Let us follow
tho work as it is done. The land is
lowed for a summer, plowed deeply, and
and harrowed until the soil U
completely broken up and made as fine
and clean as a garden ; stones are re-
moved ; drains are made if needed, and
every facility for nature to work is
forded by removing every obstacle. The
land is enriched with manure and lime.
When everything has been done the seed
b one kind only, but several,
and in the most liberal measure. The
varieties of e are chosen to suit the
soil, and when sown evenly over the
surface, the seed is covered with a
row, so that the young and tender plants
may have a root-hold and not suffer
if a few hours of hot sunshine
or a few dry days, come upon them.
The growth is not checked by untimely
pasturing and poaching of the soil by tho
hoofs of cattle. Not until roots
spread malted in the soil and can
support the weight and tread stock
turned in; and at first only small
calves or sheep, are permitted to
graze the meadow. But even when the
growth is full and the meadow will fat-
ten one steer to the acre, the work is not
thought to be finished. New seed, top-
dressing of compost, liberal dressing of
bone dust, gypsum, or
nitrate of soda are given when needed ;
and, in time, as the meadow becomes
old, it becomes a dense mass of turf, so
thick that grass cannot be parted so
as to expose soil to view, and is val-
at a thousand dollars, per acre and
pays interest on this great value. If
American farmer would have a
meadow, he must go and do like-
wise, and he can hare it In spits of
