IT is a good time to top-dress the pastures. Good feed is just what a lot of cows want, and grass is all the better for something to live on. Bone meal, ground bone, or good superphosphate will make

things grow, and I guess it pays to

raw. buy and use them. Set out trees and

A plenty of small fruits ought to
be grown on every farm, and a
good garden is just the place for
them. We must learn to take
things as they come. It will not
rain nor shine a bit more or less for

anything we can do or say, and to
fret only wears out the soul and

body too. If there were to be no
rain till every man wanted it, the
ground would go dry. It does me
good to see my old friend Blithe.
He rises with the lark, and has a

heart as full of praise. His rule is
to make the best of everything,
and so all things seem to work for
good with him. In the house, on
the road, at the store, or in the
field, he always has a cheery word
and a sweet smile, as if he thought
no ill of any one; or if he does, he
knows how to keep it to himself.
He brings sunshine with him when
he comes, and that gives warmth

Farmer's Calendar.

THE early grasses will be in bloom in a few days, and you may be sure they will not grow any Wind better to make into hay. The best hay is just dried grass, cut when it is full of juice. It is sweet then, and you will see that the cows will take hold of it, and look and act as if they wanted to say that it went just to the right place. Don't try to dry it all to a crisp, but cook it, as you would a steak, so as to leave all the juices in it. Then it is at its best. A great many fruit trees try to bear too

of chickens under the plum trees is the best way to reach the curculio, but it is easy to jar him off with the sharp blow of an axe or a club.
