may be plowed under ln season to plant
potatoes again or some other later crop.
We do not Ike the Idea of growing two
crops of fiotntoes on tho same land for
two years In succession, but there are
many other crops which would follow
well after the rye was plowed In, nnd
nearly all crops can be taken off In time
to sow rye after them, which will be
largo enough to plow under In the
spring. Hut do not trust to the ryo
nlono aa a fertilizer, but use It as an
addition to the other fertilizer applied.
(Irliiu Hue to the J'nrni".
While the census shows that the cities
have Increased In population more rap
Idly than the smaller towns between
1BU0 and 1000, this Increase Is not gen
erally so great a percentage above that
of the towns as was shown by tho cen
sus ot 1800 for the ten years previous
to that date. This Is more particularly
true In what are known as the agricul
tural States than In those where large
manufacturing Industries havo been
established In or near the cities. And
even In the latter case there seems to
be a tendency for many of the employes
to seek a residence In the suburbs or
some small town near by, where they
are retired from the noise and bustle of
the city, and where they can have room
to have fruit trees, garden and poultry
yard to occupy leisure hours, or such
days as they are not employed. And
perhaps some credit may be given to
the character of the Immigrants who
have come to us. They are more largely
from agricultural sections, and prefer
to go to the country where they will be
classed as skilled laborers, than to Join
the unskilled laborers of the city' en
gaged In the hardest kinds of manual
labor.

When the posts nnd the stone arc being

To Make the Hen. Lay.
If the hens don't lay, turn them out
nnd let them dig and hunt ln the ground
for food, la tho advice of T. P. Mc
Grow, in tho Country Gentleman. Bury
small grain where they will And it
when they dig. This will Induce them
to hunt, nnd whllo thus employed they
will llnd bugs and worms that will
quicken the production of eggs. It Is
well to follow this plan as soon as the
spado will turn the ground, for It adds
vigor and strength to the hens nnd In
sures' strong, healthy chicks. The lazy,
Idle hen Is of no use, but to sit about,
nut. nnd crow fat If sho will not work,
sho will not lay. If she will not lay,.
her life sliouiu cnu, ana ner iai enrcuss
grnco tho tnble. You can always rest
naanrnl that tho Indolent hen Is a non-
producer; soon she becomes too fat to
lay and too tough to bo eaten.
Potatoes and Rye.
Potntoes do excellently well upon
land where a crop of green ryo has
been plowed Iu, being usually very free
from scab, fair and smooth, says the
American Cultivator. Early potatoes
enn bo tnken off In time to sow rye,
which will mako growth enough to
furnish a good fall pasture or a spring
pasturo for cattlo or sheep, and then It
Ileet Snsar nnd Itounty.
It has lately been decided that a State
has not a constitutional right to pay a
bounty to beet sugar growers or to the
factories for manufacturing the sugar.
Yet this Is the way It Is done In Euro
pean countries, either by paying boun
ties or by taxing tbe use of sugar at
home, and remitting the tax on that
exported, so that their own citizens can
not obtain It nt home ns cheaply as tbe
citizens of other countries. By this
policy Austria-Hungary produced In the
year ending July, 1809, 1,041,700 tons of
raw sugar from beets, and ln the year
ending July, 1000, 1,100,000 tons, the
largest product they have ever known.
Germany also Increased her product for
the nine months from August, 1803. to
April. 1890, Inclusive, from 1.40r,804
metric tons to 1,554,402 metric tons for
the same months In 1899 and 1000.
Adapt the Crop to the Soil.
Alva Ager writes to the National
Stockman that last year he regretted
not having plowed up one acre of wheat
and planted It to potntoes. Tbe soli
wns too rich for the wheat, which
lodged before beads filled, and de
stroyed the clover seeded with It His
reason for not doing so was that be did
want to cut off one acre for a different
crop from the rest of the Held. Result,
no returns for tbe labor done or seed
sown. Last fall he sowed It to rye, and
last spring planted It to potatoes,
adding $3 "worth of acid phosphate, and
this fall he harvested over 200 bushels
of merchantable potatoes or $S0 worth
as they sell there, besides the unmer
chantable ones. He thinks rock and
rye a good combination for bis soil,
meaning tbe South Carolina phosphate
rock.
Weed. In the Pasture.
A weed Is as much "'a plant out of Its
proper place" In the pasture as else
where, and where tho pasture Is de
voted to dairy stock It may be doing
more damage there than It would In
mowing or cultivated Held. It takes up
food and moisture that are needed for
the useful plants, and It sometimes Is
of such a character as to be poisonous
to the animal, and often weeds Impart
unpleasant odors and flavors to the
milk nnd Its products. If the pastures
could be cleared of weeds and bushes
and their place given to better grass,
not ouly would they produce enough for
many more animals, but the milk prod
ucts would be of more uniform good
qunllty. If tho wholo pasture caunot
be cleaned In one season, clear a little
each year.
Filled Checae.
Here Is what filled cheese has dono
for this country since 18S0: In that
year tho United States exported 127,-
000,000 pounds. It was that year that
our chief customer, Great Britain,
"smelled tho rodent." Tho next year
tho exports fell to 05,000,000 pounds
and has gradually decreased until In
1890 wo exported but 88,000,000, of
which Great Britain took only 24,000,-
000 pounds. Honesty Is the best policy
In cheese making. Canada and Den
mark aro now supplying tho trade that
onco was ours.
When SollhiC Pays.
Nearly every dairyman has experi
enced the shrinkage that comes ln mid
summer, when the pastures dry up and
grnss Is scarce. It Is at this time that
soiling will pay and pay liberally. In
what better wny enn a person renllzo
from $23 to $25 per acre for his green
corn or green nlfalfa? When the cows
look over tho fence with longing eyes
nt the corn, tho efforts usually spent
In keeping tho cows out of the corn
lind better be spent? In throwing tho
corn over to the cows, says a Kansas
farmer,
