Stocking Email streams With Fish.
If you havoacool running stream on your
farm you can easily stock it with trout nnd In
onoortwo yean you will bonbloto tako a
mess for years when trout nro in season. If
the M'atcr bo too warm for trout put in perch
and they will thrive readily. Lastly, if the
stream it full of mud-holct put In eels. In n
Mord mako that stream pay you four or flvo
times what tho ground it occupies would. An
agricultural engineer makes the following
cstimato of tho valuo of a pond for fish and
how to conduct Itt Tho bottom of a fish pond
should bo uneven) deep holes hero nnd there
nro etbtirabloi and to make those tho earth for
the dam should bo taken from tho bottom of
the pond and should bo dug out unevenly,
leaving pits hero and thero in which tho flth
may hide and rctiro for warmth in the Winter
and coolno-s in tho Summer. A few larco
stones should nlso bo gathered from tho farm
and scattered over tho ground to bo overflowed,
or heaps of small stone's may bo made hero
and there. A few stout stakes with largo
spikei or hooks In them, to prevent unbidden
netting, should bo driven in the lottom.
Those proWdo nibbing places for tho fish,
lalso shelter for small fryi and n good supply
ot old stumps scattered about will encourage
aipiatio insects to gather and breed, and these
will furnish food. An cstimato of the valuo
of half au aero of pond surfaco may bo made
as follows! Ten pounds weight of fish may
1k kept lu 210 cubic feet of water, if tho sup
ply ot food it nilcmtato! henco half nn acre of
an nverago depth of three foot will nlTord
nearly (19,000 cubic feet of Mater, sufficient In
capacity for more than 2,500 pounds of llsh.
Assuming that a third of the fish will arrive
at eatable tlzo each year, this will givo
a supply of 800 pounds of llsh annually,
or aliout fifteen Doundt weekly. Surh
fish as may lo grown in a pond aro worth
twetitydivo cents a pound, making an annual
supply worth $200, Tho coat of catching
may le counted as nothing, and doubtless tho
contract could bo let to tho lioyt at that r rico!
in addition to the Unit tho ico may be esti
mated at worth 3'0 yearly, amounting as it
would to ovir 600 tons at ouo foot thick. If
only 200 tons wcro produced nt twcnty-livo
cents n ton, 830 would bo realized.
New Beaper and Binder.
A correspondent of the Country Gentleman
sayti
I taw tried to-day a new kind of binder at
tached to a reaper. Tho novelty consists in
tho the-af Wing liound M'ith n ttraw Und
That part of tho work it done wellt and tho
whole machlno may be cotiiidered n tiicccst,
though a few unimportant changes in somo
other respects wero suggested by tho llrst
trial, A dcicrfption that would lo intelligi
ble to the general leader is impofsildo, even if
given by tlio Inventor himself; aud I will only
aay that the straw is raked into a slieaf nt the
end of tho board next to tho machine, where
it is seized in iron anus, and held whilo a
straw land is passed around it until the two
ends of the baud pass each (ithcr and are twitt
ed, TlioJtwisted ends nro then tucked un
der, and the sheaf is dropped out of the ma
chine on the opposito tide from whero it en
terod, leokiug precisely, like a hand bound
sheaf,
Thottrawbaiidit not picked out'oftho
slieaf, as in hard work, but from a supply
thst is deposited iu a suitable receptacle,
which hits the advautago of always allowing a
tv lection ef straw that is long enough and
tough enough to meet the reiiuireinenU of the
cose. Of course no band is double length, nor
is there any necessity for it when straw of
sttKcieut length can always be selected.
