(2) He seta in rows so a- to cultivate them both ways, and runs til® cultivator close to the plantB. (3) Never allows weeds-to get a start and be over half an inch high. (4) He mulches old plants With cheap hay and does nothing to the plants until after fruiting, letting them grow up through the mulch. By following this simple plan of cultivation he has no trouble, and grows sttawberries as cheaply to the bushel as corn or potatoes. Of coMse they are more profitable. Straw be beds shotfld be set three feet apart in the roW aud plowed tioth ways , an.l kept in the beat possible order. The crop is early and furnishes means at a season wbeu farmers need money and would else have to borrow it. It there are young people in the family to pick them and pack them it will furnish them pleasant occupation and it will also pay them well for the time in vested. Where a pasture is overrun with weeds turn in the sheep, and they will keep down the young weeds. Sheep eat «lose to the ground and diligently search for all the young and tender heroage. Every blossom left on the young strawberry plant will enfeeble it to a certain extent. If the plants be ex pected.Jo. throw out rdnnera and thicken in the row they must under no circumstances be allowed to blos- tom and fruit. frequently The lawns that are mowed will soon die out unie«« some kind of fertilizer be applied. Every time the lawn-mower is used a certain proportion of the elements bi the soil are removed, as it is really cropping the ground. No delay should occur in going to work in the apple trees to destroy the caterpillars, as they will quickly fes- 10011 the tree« with, their webs. The be " sooner ‘ they, shall “ * removed tbe easier the work, aa the young worms can now be caught in the webs. ’ The ordinary liitle hand-weeder is | 1 tbe best implement to use for eradicat ing weeds among thickly growing plants, especially where the hoe may be detrimental. Ou heavy, hard soil ' its use is not profitable, but on light soils it permits of effeqtive work, and at a lpw cost. j The persimmon tree does not de prive thq s°ii a large amount of fertilizing elements, aud for that rea son makes the best of Bhade trees for stock. In the South, even on ab«n- dpued.fieldti,. the persimmon is allowed to grow. Its growth is alow« however, but its fruit is highly valued by some, White clover ia the best pasture grass that caii be grown for sheep. As white clover is a short grass, it is more desirable than -red clover for grazing, as sheep detest long grass, preferring to crop close to the ground . Ou a mixture ef grasses in a pasture, Cattle and sheep may be grazed to gether, as the grasses that may be objectionable to the cattle will b* ap propriated by the sheep. It fruits ef say kind are to be set out, see that the supply be purchased and the ground picked out and pre pared, the slakes set, so that when the lime shall come for transplanting there need be no delay. With many spring is considered the beat tupe for setting out fruit, and if this plan be intended, so far as possible, the work should be done early, so that the trees or plants will be able te make a good start to grow betore hot, dry weather shall sot in. Many people suppose that artificial incubatiou1 is a modern invention. Such is not the case. The Copts oi Egypt have been engaged tn artificial egg hatching for centuries. _ Tnere are 700 establishments for that' industry within a short distance ot Cairo, and the production of chickens from the ovens reaches 12,000,000 annually. The season -for incub >ting lasts through three months in the early summer. The country p ople take fresh eggs to the owners of the ovens and give two for each newly hatched chick. In olden times sowing land with salt was a symbol of its desolation. In large enough quantities it will destroy every trace of végétas ion. Even those plants which, like aspara gus, are natural lovers of salt, san have too much of a dose, but after a time heavily salted land recovers its fertility, and may even be the better for this treatment. We have heard of farmers who, by mistake, applied too mqch salt to wheat ; but they seeded the following spring, and for several years thereafter the field that had been over-salted produced enormous crops of hay. The tendency of salt is to make the soil moist and oooL It is, therefore, excellent for crops that require these conditions.
