Gate ways are 12 feet wide, the gates of black asa lumver, 3 by 3 incMes, and put togecher w ith 3-8 by 31-2 inch carriage bolts, nulls nov being used. The crosspicces on ences and centre are double and boited through and through.

Whers ditches are to be crossed with teams THE FARM HIS DANK and loads, the ground is rraded with 12-inch vitrified sewer pi which 1s much better than plank-fo- bridging. -- My chief and best paying crop is nay, a mixture of alsike clover and tlmotsy preferred. The land drains well, bur is flat, black loam and clay svbsoll, about 12 inches of Joam. My gr atest trouble in farming is' too _much wet; with $-inch drain good results, as the land is dry the first of any land on the farm in spring. ly cure onthe land. and three tons per acre;.corn yield 100 bushels per acre a fair crop. I no longer make summer fallows for fall wheat. Clear the land by ralsing buckwheat, corn and millet, ploughing early in June for buckwheat and mil- let and keep the soll well stirred to about July 4 and then sow. My most profitable and best -- 8 or 10 inches apart drills 40 inches apart; cultivate and hoe as for ordinary corn and cut seven days sooner than for corn to be husk- ed, then tle In large stocks in the field, let it cure before hauling to darn and feed to cows without husking. When pastures become poor and October, cut and cows. The results In milk and butter are surprising; at least 10 tons per acre can be raised of this feed. Is the chief crop and is cut, pitched on and off the wagon by ms- chinery. Ail the grain is stacked out of doors and ali straw carried by ma- chinery into the barn and by a second carrier. to the middle of the barn. I never bed more straw than enough to keep the stock clean and all surplus si sold at about $4 per 1400-Ib, load in Canada or $6 for a _ little more Buffalo. Firewood is cut by circular saw or two horse drag saw, the latter being farm ts all cleared, my wood is bought from neighbors at a rate per acre standing. My apple orchard has been a finascial failure, only paying crops having been harvested any .variety, belng the bes: apple yet known in this section for productiveness, In my barns I have six tracks for a car to carry away hay from the horse fork. Openings to receive hay are all 8 feet wide and all openings are made by onhookiny boards. Hay is pitched .in the barn from outside » off the wagon. Ors» horse is used'to work the single har- poon fork. I raise yellow globe man- gel wurzels for cattle when the season is favorable, but never work the land when it Is wet. Never apply manure on land when wet, but pile it In the field and when the land is dry spread manure fromm wagon and let it He until the land becomes wet enough ro plough. Am of the opinion the sun has no power to extract more than water from manure spread in the fleld.-- James M. Cline, Welland Co., Ont., in Farm and Home. Spring Work. I had occasion to stop at a farm uw few days ago, where nothing was be- ing done to get ready for spring work. Three full-grown, able-bodieG men were idle. Ploughs, harrows, harness, machinery and tools scattered around promiscuously, and none of them in shape to use. The horses af the straw rick on fodder feed, are too thin and weak for the heavy breaking soon at hand, and long siege of hard work that will last ally summer. The wood-pile equal only to precent neces- sities, and the fences as left by the November winds. This farmer and ghis sons Are sober, intelligent fellows, 'up-to-date," on local, state, national and international affairs, take fairly good care of their are well thought of in: thelr and, I scarcely need add, lack financial thrift. ine as well as they know. not brain nor brawn, but lack the will to use the brawn. I wish it could be said that these farmers are rare and exceptional ses, I ope. they are. The visit to this farm suggested tha it might be seasonable, and orantabte, too, to call attention to things oucht now be doing on the farm, to be fully ready for spring work. I say, ther fore, see to getting the horses, harness, implements, tools, ete., order ut once.--Farmer, in Farm News. we Stick to Good Horses, All farmers will not completely aban- don horse raising, but if there Is to be any profit in the business it will come from the production of horses with good action and compact build.

Interesting Facts Compiled by the Britis} Board of Trade, The British Board of Trade has issnea@ a statement showing zhe. production and consumption of ooal-a nhun- ber of persons ae = the coal production in the principal countries of the world in each year from 1883 to 1894. For the first time statistics of coal production in the British cojonfes and in British East Indies are given, and of the consumption of British coal in other countries. Although the fig- ures are sometimes.only estimated, they ean be taken as substantially accurate, In 184 the United' Kingdom produced 188,277,000 ; Germany, 76,741,009; France, 534,000; »Austria, 9,573, 000; Japan (1893), 3, 371,000, and the United States, 152,448,000 tons, Of the "vitish possessions, Canada produces ween 3,000,000 and 4,000,000 tons, and iu addition Imports half her total consumption, principally from the United States.

Natal's output rose from 26,000 tons in 1889 to 141,000 in 1894, Similarly in Brit- ish Indla the production has steadily tisen from 1,216,000 tons in 1883 to 2,- $21,000 tons jn 1894. The countries which import coal in excess of the amuunt they export are Russia, Sweden, France, and Austria-Hungary, and of British posssessions, Canada, Victoria, Queens- land, Tasmania, New Zealand the Cape and British India, together with all the minor colonies, with the sole ex- ception of Labuan (Borneo).

The number of persons employed in coal production in various countries in 894 was as follows: United Kingdom, €65,747; Germany, 299,627; Belgium, 117,- 103; France, 131,587; J&pan (1893), 30,345; the United States (1893), 363,309; Brit- ish India, 43,197; Canada, 9,654; New South Wales, 9,131; New Zealand, 1,899, and the Cape, 1,001, Vegetarinniam. to realize that a larce etmnetsss of the inhabitants of ts country are practically vegetarians «( the present moment. It is true that they are compulsorily so, but the fut remains. How much meat can an agri- cultural laborer's family nave out of a wage of lis a week? I small quantity cf salt pork be occasionally eaten, it ts of value chiefly as respira- tory food. Yet our laborers, who have subsisted on this diet generations, are strong. In other European coun- tries the peasantry'are still more evi- dently vegetarian for all practical pur- poses. Even in Russia, according to Prince Krapotkin, the peasant gets only corn, and not enough of that some- times. Yet the Russian peasant is not wanting in vigor. The evidence is the same if we glance at non-European races. The hardy Arab or Soudanese Is sat- isfled with the dates, the Zulu with = the Hindu with grains and Japanese have a similar varied occasionally fi Waganda: "With is happy, fat and he is a famished, diet, Stanley says of the the banana plant he thiving.

Attention is called to this mat:- t iw because it is the most sultadee tige to to get a few logs out of the woods have them manufactured into sultable lumber for a shed. In such case all the cash a shed would cost would be the price of a few nalls and the sawing bill. Ordinary dairymen have a dread of contractinz any un- necessary expense.

It is hoped thts will get some such manure-wasters to thinking. Persons who have not been on tours of observation through dairy sections can have but a faint Idea of how ex- tensive the waste is in this respect. It amounts to many millions of do?- lars annually in the state of New York alone. Probably one-half of the dairymen would plead guilty to this indictment. But there are many honor- able exceptions. Some keep their manure under co shed cover, and the More able have thefr cow barns so constructed that they can drive a team through behind two rows of cows. A vehicle {Is kept standing In the stable, and when a load is obtained {t Is driven to the fie'2 and spread. This fs the most sensible way. When the country was new the soll filled with sweet native grasses and the butter made had a delicious flavor. By the lax system of dairving the soft gradually became' depleted of fertility. the tame grasses slowly went out and weeds and coarse grasses came tin. The butter made now is not of as good quality as formerly. A few of the best dairymen, observing whence they were drifting by this system of 'depletion, changed their methods, fed more grain, especially cottonseed mea:, tagerally husbanded and- applied all the solid manure made, and now the tame sses are driving out the weeds and other wild growth.
