A correspondent objects to the policy of having men work on the farm 13 or 14 hours daily- He thinks 10 or 11 hours long enough, and that if a man does not do a day's work in that time, he will not in a longer time. Farmers who do not cultivate or manure their orchard?, or prune their tree?, are very often heard com plaining of the failure of the apple crop, and attributing the cause to the drought, or the to everything but gencc. u If poultry become infested with lice, damp the skin under the feath ers with water, then sprinkle a little sulphur on the skin.
