September is usually a pleasant season on the farm, as the hot and humid weather of summer has given place to a more agrecublo temperature, and the labors and duties to be periormed are neither very pressing nor arauous. Still while tho month is one of comparative leisure with ruralists, there are vavious essentinl matters requiring attention— such as harvesting Indian corn and other fall crops, and sowing of winter graing that cannot be long deforred. These operations are. of course, greatly facili- tated by favorable weather, but even severe storms and early frosts should not materially affect those who forecast their work and provide for contingencies. But most farmers can take things more or less easy this month,and many might find time to make some permanent im- provement on their premises in addition to attending at least one rural exhibi tion "nose who took no ation after the lubors of huarvest, and are therefo o in some recreation, should certainly utilize the opportunity to visit one o* moie rural fairs, not merely spectators but also as exhibit ors, to the end that they may 1mpart as well as receive somo of thut 'knowledge which is the source of success in puesu- ing their avocation. Cons severe need o Sowlng Winter Gralns. Preparing the ground for and sowing full graios is the most important wor now demanding attention. Land that is to be sown to wheat should be well tilled, as the crop requires a deep, mel- low, well pulverized soil. To sceure a good seed bed it is not only necessary to use the hurrow, but also the roller, esnecially if the ground is lumpy. Care should be taken to use only puré seed ot w superior variety. It is not advisable to change the kind of wheatsown unles: assured thut it will be advantageou but if a highly lauded variety is naapted o your region und promises better than that now grown give ita trial by sow- ing u smail quantity, but do not depend upon it as a general erop until after verimenting. Wheat should not be sown broadeast if a drill is cbtainable; and the farmer who cannot afford to buy a drill can usually hire onefroma neigh- bor, in which case he will save enough in seed to pay the rent of the machine. One great udvantago of the drill is that with 1t one can estimate the quantity of seed used, and another is thut it puts the seed at a uniform depth below the surfuce. Still another is that the best grain drills have attachments for sow- ing both fertilizers and grass seed. Winter rye, though not so valuable a crop as wheat, is found more profitable by wany farmers who grow it for straw. While it can be grown on comparatively poor soil, it will, of course,do best when, the ground is well prepared, and manur- ing will incrense the profits, Those who intend 1o sow winter oats, which succced better in the south than here, should prepare the ground thoroughiy at once. Securing the Corn Crop, Indian corn is lute in most sections this year, but will soon be ready for garner- ing. The cropis varely cut as soon as it ought to be. Asa rule corn harvest- ing shou'd begin as soon as the grain is lized, especially if the ground is to be | sown with wheat; und in all cases the crop ought to be cut up and stocked or houscd before severe frosts occur, as the latter greatly damage the fodder. 1| Asuipping frosts areliable to take y in most corngrowing regions, any infe after the midd'e of September, there should be no procrastination in harvest ing. If cut up and secured early the stalks will be far more valuabls for fodder thyn if left exposed, »ad hence ufter the crop is sulliciently matured the quicker it is guthered in the better, Cutting corn clue to the ground is pra | ticed by most good cultivators, and 1t is especiilly peeferable where farmers vilue the addition made by the corn- stalks to the manuce heap. Fodder corn Pourriy=0id fow s und spring chlokens, ©i roostors, Ui keesv und duc ow. The muy be ullowed to stand until there is danger of frost, but it should then be cut and sscured, Selecting Seed Corn, Selecting sced corn and saving itin proper condition is a matter of import- ance at this senson. It is a good rule to choose ears for seed before cutting Breaking down the tops of stalks, the ears of which they wish to save, and lenving them to mature after the others have been cut, is a system pursued by some farmers, but this plan is hardly practicable where the crop is late like the presentone. Probably the bost way is to grow seed corn by itself, and commence early in the season to remove all of the inforior stalks, thus making sure that the seed wiil come from vigor ous plants, free from disease or imper fections; then the selection of the seed should begin in the field as soon as it commences ripening. This systems if practiced for a few years, will be fol lowed by a great improvement in the corn; it will be more even and also more productive. Every farmer should ascer- tain what particular variety is best adapted to his farm and then stick to it. By so doing he will be able to muintain a variety distinct from all others, and €0 year after year improveitin the dircetion best suited to his wants. Many farmers are doing this and have already made considerable progress. The object should be to secure n variety of corn that will produce the lurgest amount possible with tho expenditure of agiven amount of labor and muterial. Potatoes - Root Crops. The potato crop is becoming more im- portant and profitable in many sections, and it scems strange that it is not even more universully grown, inasmuch as Large quantities of potatoesare imported inlo this country every year at a profit With our fertile soil,” machine.y for planting and harvesting, and facilities for transportation, we should certainly provide enougl of the most popular of tubers to supply the demand. If potato growers, and those who can easily be- come such, will give their attention to this matter there will soon be an in- creased production. Meantime let the present erop be dug as soon as ripe, ana ufter drying bo properly stored in a dry, cool and comparntively durk place. Root crops need attention av this sea- son. They grow rupidly during the vm days and cool nights of early fall, but the weeds wili keep ap with them 1f not checked; so it is best to keep the cultivator at work as long as the leaves will ullos. The harvesting of beets and marigolds is in order this moath,as they become hollow and dry if left in the ground after maturing. The Fa Live Stock. The live stock of the farm should not be neglected this month, they will begin to improve in flesh with the ad- nce of cool weuth It is a good time to push fattening stock, as they gain much faster now than when the wenther becomes colder. Horses,who are likely to have become run down by the severe labors attending ficld operations during the hot nonths of July and August, now require good care to get them in condition for the heavy worl of fall piowing. Cows should not be allowed to fall off in theiv flow of milk stures supplemented with fode wd ra- tious of corn meal, or ground oats or bran, will enable you to muke as good butter during this and next month as inJune; but to do this good care and feed are essential requisites. Bear in mind that cows to culf in winter should be dried off about two months bufore theie time, and when dry be so well fed that they will keep gaining flesh. Sheep will pow thrive well on good pasture. To bring early lumbs ewes should run with the vamin September, as their period of gestation is about 150 days. A Southdewn ram with common or grade ewes 1s n good cross for those who wish to produce mutton and lamb of extra quality. The fattening of swine and other ani- mals should be begun for the reason already stated. Pen up the store pigs, good grades, and care for them prop- erly. Those who are in possession of broods of young chicks at this season must proiect them well in stormy weather. Young roosters running with hens are intolerable nuisances that ought to bo abated. They persecute the hens and greatiy damage the keep- ing quality of the dggs. They are far too abundant in many yasds st this time, and should be kept separats or disposed of in some manner. Points tor Those who raise fruit for market will have much picking, as<orting and paci ing to do this month; and they ean enhance thew profits materially by tuk ing exira pains in performing all these manipulations, No matter what kind of frait is handled see that it is made attractive to the purchaser, and not boought to market in the hapha condition so often witnessed. rower who always sends market in neat picka condition soon acquires a reputation which insures him extea prices. All who desire to extend their orchards or fruit gardens next spring should muko preparations this fall by manuring, plow- ing, ete. Budding is in order this matured buds may be cuit Growers, The his feuit to and superior month, whereve had and the stock isin proper condition. Pench trees aro largely budded in Sop- tember, and it is an interesting and pleasant operation, eusily learnad by most persons. Young trees should now be judiciously pruned and all superfluous beanches removed. Early September a good time to plunt new strawberry beds; if the ground ean be put in propor condition it is better todo the work now than to defer it until spring. Now for the Agricultural Fairs, The agricultural fairs call for the spe- ciul attention of soil-tillers, ns Septem- ber is the great month for such exhibi tions, und this is, therefore, the lust call for those who inteud to exhibit and com- pete thoveut to make preparation, Though we referred to this mattor lnst month, we are constrained to allude to it again, and urge all of our readers en- gaged in any branch of agriculture to uttend and contribute to the display of at least one fuir, and preferably “the nearest exhibition, Well conducted rural faivs—such as prohibit from their grounds gambling, liquor selling and demoralizing side shows-—are useful and instructive institutions, and worthy of encouragement by all who favor pro- gress and improvewent. Not ouly farm- ers, but suburban residents and vil- lage: s—men, women and young people— should attend thelocal fuir,and us many of them as expedient ought to con- tribute to one or more departments, It is n notable place to acquire useful knowledge, as there are plenty of object lessons at a rural fair, and muny of them ure interesting and instructive to both old and young. But aside from the ben- efit derivable from even a cursory exam- inution of the varied display, there is vleasure in meoting and enjoying a socil reunion with long-time friends, who i1ve too far away to be ofton vis. ited. Therefore it is pleasant and profit- BOND WANTED COUNTIE! HOOL' DISTRICT! ATER COMPANIES, 8T, Correspondence solicited. R.R.COMPANIES,cic.

It puts him ahead with his spring labors, teams work easier and have more endurance in cool weathor. and besides the work will be done bet- ter, because there is more timo to do it in, Farm improvements should bo made wherever necessary during the autumn, In many casos it will pay to build new roads: the low land can be ditched out that it may bo thoroughly drained, old stumps puiled out and the land leveled and sceded down to grass, Every farmer who has much low land that is covered with woo should clear a small piece every year, and thus extend his mowing lands, An old swamp well drained, cleared up and seeded to grass a very desirable addition toany farm. The compost heap should receive at tention now from farmers and also from villagers who have gardens. There are many things about the farm and a vil- lage lot that are frequently wisted, which if gathered in a heap and allowed to rot might be mnde into a useful fertilizer. Where muck can be obtained it witl prove a valuable addition to the compost heap. Kill thistles, bushes, ete., during the hot days of early September. Canadu thistles and other brinrs that ought to have been cut out or dug out in August should now bo destroyed, root and branch, wherever thoy cumbor the ground. Cut them during hot, sun- shiny days, and they will either die o te greatiy checkod. Clean out the fence corners and rondsid Cutting up and burning the rubbish is the best way to et rid of the nuisances. Toole and implements which will not be needed again soon should bo care fully looked over, and if any are worn out or weakened, a mewmorandum made that they may be repaired at somo con- venient time before another season. All ron should be cleaned aud oiled to pro- vent rusting, and the woodwork cleaned in order that it may receive a coat of paint if it necds it. THE FARM GIRL, Mrs A, G Th mpson in Short Storics. 1 just wish my name wusn't Rachel and that I didn’t have to pick up pota- toss!” The wail came from a mite of a giri away up in New Hampshire, on a farm 50 hard and rough, and so covered with stones that it has been said of its pas- tures, ‘the sheep had to have thoir noses sharpened before they could got at the grass! The scene wasn’tan inviting one, tho y was chill and gray, and the dead leaves lying upon the ground were of a dingy brown. The little barefooted, poorly clad child moaned and shivered afresh eve time she deposited o handful of tubers in the big baske 3 *‘Come, hurry up, Rache; I'm a long way ahead cf you,” calied out a boy in blue checked shirt and overalls, *‘Let’s malks haste and get this job done and zo down to the brook. 1 know where there’s lots of minnows, and pap said 1 might go fishing tomorrow if the pota- toes were all in.” “Oh, Jack, do you s’pose they’d let mo g0 with you?” The little face so woebegone and for- lorn a minute before was full enough of life now, and all aglow with anticipated pleasure, while the little red fingers fell to work with feverish rapiaity. The task was soon completed and two light hearts gave freshuess to the feet that turned toward a tiny brook that ran rurgling through the meadow atthe end of the field But sharp eyes weve looking from the low-roofed farmhouse a few rods away and a shrill ery of “Rachel, Rachel!” brought the girl to a sudden standstill. Once more it was repeated and this time in a tone not to be disregarded. “It’s too darned bad,” sympathetic- ally exclaimed Juck, hurrying on. t’s always the way.,” muttered the poor girl, slowly moving back over the rough ground in answer to the summons, “unothing but nasty work, work, work! | most wish't I was dend—so there!” *Come, come, spring to,” were the words that met her ut the kitchen door. “There’s all them dinner disnes piled up in the s 1d ['m most tired out. quick you can wash um ; it’s most time to set the supper table. Ideclare to Moses I don’t see where the time goes to,” and Mrs, Mar- tin turned into the “sctting room” and flopped down in a creaking rocking chair. Rachel was alittle “bound givl,” aged 12, Two years she had lived on the Martin farm, und had six more to serve. The people who had pledzed them- solves to give her a home and clothe her in rewurn for such service as she could render were not intentionally cruel. They meant to be kind to her, and were in the main, as they under stood kindness. She had enough to cut and drink, and her clothing, though conrse and seanty, wus as comfortable us that of other poor children. They had no understanding of naked, starved souls. Their own existence was cold and hard like the soil they tilled; tunewr lives had always been full of toil, barren of recreation, and Juck was their only indulgence! H) came to them when they had forgotten their youth nd all that was soft or tender in their natures was lavished on him. So he had holi- days now und then in excess of what falls to the lot of the ordinary boy. On ore of the rhre occasions when Mr. and Mrs Martin'had been called away fora day, Rachel had hurried through with the housework, and ignoring the “stint’’ of knitting-left for her to do had wondered of trout fishing with Nature should be assisted to throw off impurl- ties of the blood.

Now, Jack had gone to plead for a repetition of the pleasure, while she, in breathless longing, sat upon the sill of the kitehen door and waited The woary head rested heavily on thu little red arms that were erossed on the sharp knees drawn up for their support; and all the disappointments of her life scemed to roll together in an immense \li to erush her when Jack announced the fuilurd of his coaxing.

Then Jack, in_ the t of a boy, addec D says you're getting big enough to help with the milking now, and he moeans you to learn soon’s vou get through huskin’ tha corn and shellin’ the ary beans,” “*Oh, Jack!” and with this pitiful cry she fled to her litule garret room. ©The one terror Rachel had never been able to overcome was of cows Going to the pasture to drive them home was torture, even though Jack constntly laughed at her and assuved her that she was safe. BBut the idea of gotting near enough to ono to touch 1t was a nightmare. I'or hours after everything was still the little figure under the rafters tossed from side to side of her cot, thinking only of the hardnessof her young life. Every bone in her slight frame was aching with the tiredness thut comes from overwork, and her brain wasjon fire with the rebellious struggle agninst fate xain and again came the old re- I wish’t was dond; oh I wish't I was dead!” when suddenly fol lowed the thought: “*Why shouid I not be?” She remembored a spotin the broof where the water was very deep. I there wis never to bo any pleasure in h;l;lifu why not end the misery once for all?

Ruchel reached the brink of the pool, when some little wild thing, startled by her step, sprang with o frightened cry out of the bushes beside he Suddenly all was changed. The natural terror of a timid child” swept over the half insane creature, and turning she flew buck to the forsaken house and buried her head in the bed clotnes sho had but a few moments before thrown so hastily one . “Rache Rachel!

The old doetor eame and pronounced it a “serious case of brain fever,” ard talked of “some sudden shock,” **ov work, maybe.” Questions were asked thit were hard to answer, and remarks were made that set the hearers a-thin ing. Asaresult, when Ruachel finally crept downstairs again, thin and white, she noted n great change. A strong woman came two or three v in the week to do the heavy work. “There was 10 more going outside to help aboat men’s tasks, and the ordinary housework was divided between Mrs. Martin and Rachel in a way that left them many comfortable hours for sew- ing and reading. Six years have grown into a plump, prety, just left the room, when threw her head back and g What's the matter, mother?” asked a tall, manly fellow of 23, who entered at this moment. “Why, Jack, T have just remembered that tomorrow Rachel’s time is up, and she’ll be free to leave us and go where she pleases. What I'm to do without her beats me; I declare *twould be like choppin’ off & hand to lose her.” that all? Then don’t worry, mother. TRachel won’t leave the farm, even though her time is up.” Well, I'm glad to hear it—though it beats me how you eame to know s much about it,” rejoined Mrs. Martio. “Well,” Stammered Jack, growing red, *Ldon’v know as it’s a sceret now.” “Oh, that’s what it’s come to?” Murs.
