it food unlutions. The fine threads maybe THE FARMER'S CQRHER. Tb oughts of a Practical Character for the Honest Farmer. As man has improved the quality of new difficulties attend their cultivation. Tbe squash has more persistent enemies than the pumpkin.

The Colorado beetle has abandoned his old practice of feeding on wild weeds and now devotes himself to the succulent potato top. The squash has been so improved as to be not only a delicious edible but a most prolific and profitable field crop. It is a prize worth contending for, and though the squash tiend has smothered his millions of promising plants and struck out many of a zealous gardener, yet the war goes on. Now comes on the scientist and tells vis he has a drug that will suffocate the stink bug and simulate squash growth. Sulphide of carbon disagrees with cabbage maggots and squash bores.

Professor J. A. Cook has found London purple of value too in this tight. Crude carbolic acid, one part in fifty parts water, applied every weeks, will keep the borer at bay. A writer in the Indiana Farmer has used Paris green with satisfaction.

As soon as the borer begins his work the farmer put a half teaspoonful of the poison in two gallons of water, which he poured about the roots, and where the borer had cut the vines be made a incision in the vine and dropped some of the mixture into it. The vines soon revived and the corpus triKtis drooped. SQUASH SKED. It is an old notion among gardeners that squash seeds are more likely to germinate if caxrit in the pocket at least three days prior to planting. Tbe testimony of Professor Ileal and Tracy, at the Science Association at Cincinnati, shows that the sprouting of squash seed is very unreliable, and varies with trilling change of temperature and moisture.

A correspondent of the Home Farm, well up on squash cultivation, tells us tbrouirh the Js'ew York Tribune how to select and save good seed. He selects the mo-t promising specimens while the quahes are growing, and marks the word "seed" on the rind with a pointed stick, which cuts through the skin, lie thus can preserve these on the vine as long aw possible, without injury by fro-t. A seed squ ih has a clear, rich orange color, and freedom from green around the calyx-end; has a depression around tbe stem, which has at an early stage a yellowish color, and stands at an angie with the squash: the UesLi is thick. giinggreat weight for its size. A green color at the calyx-end denotes impuritv.

The depression where the stem Joins indicates rapid growth and early ripening. As seed continues to ripen after the squash is removed from the vine, it is vvcil to leave them uncut for two or three months after put in store. After removing the seed, there is no need of washing, but dry promptly avoiding beat above When dry tie up in stout paper sacks, in a cool place, where the temperature is never below freczingpoint. We are satisfied squash seed are more easily injured bycold than is our seed corn. Ciood seed wiil retain vitality five year.

Seed three year old is decidedly better tor late planting than fresh oaes, as they run less to vine and fruit sooner: but for the main crop two-year-old seed is the best. SAVE YOUR. CI.OVKR SEKI). The advancing price of clover seed suggests that there is much seed yet standing in the pods in the clover fields." The clover is dried up and no longer tit for picture. The new shoots are starting since the late rain, and the old dry clover stalks and pods can be taken oft without loss to the pastures, 1 very littie in fertilizing or shading of the srround.

We have seen many clover pistures in which there was from one to two tmhM of clover seed that might well and eiily be saved at a cost of not more than 2 to the bushel. It is not yet too I to cut and iv teed on such pastures. The tock will need to be removed while the clover is drving, is tramping and hooking it about will w.ite much of it. The best way to cut it, a we have fetatcd in these column-, i to cut with a self-raking machine, and a rood fork-full to accumulate on the platform of the machine lefre dropping. The trouble and waste from raking it is thus avoided.

The chief reaon, however, for saving one's own clover seed is, we thus avoid the introduction of vile and foreign grasses and weeds into our land. We have not adequately estimated the loscs and damages coming to us from impure and infe looked upon as the roots of the fungus, the ouly ones it has, and they collect its food. This food goes to form a vast number of small orange-colored spores upon the ruptured surfaces of the stems and leaves. The matter whieh the wheat plant had gathered from earth and air, and would have used in making good plump grain, goes into the fungus spores, and the rust-struck plant produces only shriveled grain and a poor quality of fctraw." Farm Notes. Prof.

Riley says that kerosene oil is sure death to insects in all stages, and the only substance with which we may hope to destroy their eggs. A Denver paper says that enough alfalfa ha been sold in that State this year to seed JO.Ooo acres, which next year A'ill give an increase of t.0,000 tons of hay worth $1,250,000, estimating the yield at six tons to an acre. Cm some farni9 near Denver it has produced eight and nine tons. Let every farmer who is not able to fence a large pasture get a few board, build a few-rods of portable fence and make a small enclosure for his hogs and move it around as circumstances require. It will make pork raising more profitable than to keep hos confined in pens all the time.

In cultivating sweet potatoes it is a mistake to cut the vines short, as this will check the growth of the tuber but they should be prevented from rooting outside the hill. To prevent this, pull them up several times at the joints during the season. This plan will give potatoes, if the land Is of the. right quality and Well cultivated. In Algiers a deep, steam cultivation is considered by the French agriculturists as the eqxiivalent of half an irrigation.

The ground is a sort of sponge, and absorbs the heavy dews to such an extent that it withstands the parching sun, and each night renews the moisture, while the shallow plowed soil is effectually dried early in the season. The kind of grass suited for permanent pasture depends upon me Kind or son, indeed, it is hardly worth while to try to seed down permanently any but moist soils. For these the following kinds of grass are bet suited: Ued-top, 5 pounds per acre; creeping bent, 5 pounds meadow spear-grass, 4 pounds; fowl meadow-grass, 4 pound; red fescue, 5 pounds; meadow fescue, pound; tall fescue, 5 pound; meadow oat-grass, 4 pounds; crested dog's tail, 3 pound; timothy, pounds. The average results of experiment and theory, so to speak, make fifty-seven pounds of Indian corn equal to loo pounds of hay, or 1,140 pounds of corn to the ton of hay. it it must be remembered that the nutritive effects of food upon an animal are varied bv many causes, and that the comparison of foods is affected by the object sought, as it, growth, labor, milk, etc.

The above is the relative amount of nutritive matter in coro and hay, as determined by experiment and theory. The following is a well-tested receipt for chicken cholera: At the first symptoms dissolve in one gallon of the drinking water half a teaspoonful of alum and the same of copperas; at the same time give daily in the sort feed a little sharp sand at the rate of one te i-spoonful to a fowl. In severe cases give at once by hand a piece of alum and a piece of copperas, each the size of a pea, mixed in dough, with one teaspoonful of sand an. I a little meal and water. Continue the medicated water and sanded feed till all signs of disease disappear.

The best rule for salting butter is to salt to suit the taste of the consumer. There is no use in applying any particular amount of salt for the purpose of "preserving it, because the very lightest salting is always more than sufficient for all the effect salt, can have as a preservative of butter, (ienerally one ounce of salt to sixteen ounce of butter, so as to obscure in a measure the faulty taste, the tlavor of salt being les objectionable than a wrong or faulty taste butter. Hut if the ll ivor i verv fine and full it will not be desirable to hide it, but, on th contrary, to give it more prominence, ileacc, 1' salt, av one ounce to twenty of butter, will give a betttr effect.

While he was gToaning away at a hard rate, he happened to see a wild goose that had recently been killed, and out of curiosity picked it up and found that its craw was as full of corn as it could be, and that mixed with the corn was a number of fine pebbles. He was at once impressed with the idea that pebbles are good to assist indigestion, and going to a small creek scooped up a couple of handfuls of muddy, graveled water, which he swallowed. He says that it was only a few minutes until be was relieved of his pain, and felt as well as if be had not strained a point to swallow his eighteenth egg.

Henry, of the Supreme Court, from which it appears that he said: "Why, Judge Laughlin's statement that the Supreme Court has substn-tially declared that the idea of mental excitement at the time of committing the killing is inconsistent with the deliberation which makes the crime murder in the first degree is a perversion of language so cross that nothing worse can be imagined. The Supreme Court has never announced such a doctrine. In fact the opposite has been often stated by that bench." This I saw for the first time yesterday and heard of first on Saturday last.

Independent of the fact that a question of some interest to the people of the whole State is involved, I may. for the vigorous language employed, be paadoned for answering back. But my personal respect for Judge Henry forbids that I should do so harshly, or otherwise than as deserves a usually courteous gentleman and fearless Judge. He may-he rude towards me I have no desire to be so towards him. But has the Supreme Court so held? I said it had, and notwithstanding his emphatic denial the case before me compels me to reiterate the assertion.

For the good of society, the peace and good order so much and so uaiversally desired I regret that this is so. But unless my stupidity is so gross" that I cannot understand comparatively plain English, it certainly is so. If he will taKe up the 70th volume of the Supreme Court lieports and read the opinion of the court ia Curtis' case, he wilPind, beginning ab ut the middle of page of the aforesaid volume, this language: "In State vs. Wieners it was said premeditation and deliberation are not synonyms, and a homicide may be premeditated without being deliberately committed. It was further held in that case that murder in the second degree is such a homicide as would have been murder in tbe first degree if committed deliberately.

If these views be correct it must necessarily follow that all intentional homicides committed with premeditation and malice, but without deliberation, must be murder in the second degree. The word deliberation as Used in the statute implies a cool state of the blood, and is intended to characterize what are ordinarily termed colu-blooded such as proceed from deep malignity of heart, or are prompted by motives of rivengo or gain. These are classed as murders in the first degree. On the other hand, premeditation may exist in an excited state of the mind, and if the passion or excitement of the mind be not provoked by what the law accepts as an adequate cause, so as to rebut the imputation of malice, an intentional killing under the Influence of such a passion will be murder in the second degree. If the party act upon sudden passion, engendered by reasonable provocation, the existence of malice will be negatived and the killing, though intentional, will be manslaughter in the fourth decree.

This may not be perfectly simple to every one, but to a lawyer its meaning is clear enough. I maintain that it means what it says, that without malice there can be no murder, but ouly manslaughter; that passion engendered by reasonable provocation, i. adequate cause, rebuts the imputation of malice; that there is a substantial difference between prt meditation and deliberation in murder; that premeditation may exist in an excited state of the mind, but not deliberation and that, "if the passion or excitement of the mind be not provoked by what the law acct pis as an adequate ca ise. an intentional killing unuer the influence of such a passion will be murder in the sccoad dc grte." Can Henry, or any one else in the State of Missouri or out of it, make of this i.nvthing else? I ask in all candor, and am willing to confess myself a blockhead to auy one v. ho wili.

In conclusion, permit me tosav, sir, that I write this solely to defend myself against a charge of gross injustice towards my judicial superiors. 1 am not aruiltv of it. I have simply bowed to a "doctrine" which at the time of it deliverance struck with alarm the mind of more than one trial judge in this state, and which I do most solemnly believe to Le full of danger.

Nobbe, of the experiment station at Tharandt, Saxonv, in April, Is was asked by a farmer to test four or live samples of gras seed which he had bought. The test showed less than tuirty per cent of lure set true to name. The other seventy per cent was worthless, vile seed of grasses and weeds. The result of this tirt an ilysis was so astounding that Prof. undertook un ana vsis tf the stock of prominent seed-houses in (ierm.iny.

Hi results, published, made a volume, which ha opened the eyes of students and farmers. In each of the forty-live experiment stations of Europe the testing of seeds is a most prominent feature. Ir. A'-bert K. Letleux, late director of the Nort'i Carolina agricultural experimeiitsia'ion, i a most valuable paper published in tue first volume of the Journal of the Vineric.tn Agricultural Association.

We give enough of it to show that it is no longer safe to buy seeds when one can by reasonable me ins produce his own. It is cheapest and safest to rais; our own grass seeds, which every irmer cm do after once making a start. Dr. Nobbe found that in commercial samples per cent of pure seed wa found: but of this onlv 1 percent was capable of germinating. seeds were renovated by boiling, dying and roasting.

Weed seeds were stained and used to adulterate lots of expensive seed. Kuglisti seedsmen sold in 1 over ten ton of poor turnip seed disguised so a to represent a more valuable article. In Bohemia and elsewhere large factories for the manufacture of eeds from quartz were running, with large warehouses at Hamburg and other trade centers. These grain of ouartz, colored to order, were sold at per tor, and were largely ued to adulterate lover. P.y iiing our o.vn seed, we do not have to pay the fifteen cents per pou nd fur quart, clover seed.

It i said the ordinary o'-serer will not detect the i.iri. fraud even with twenty-five per cent of it in a s.impl- of clover seed. Itut the quaitz adulteration is pi rhap the least objectionable.
