Preparations for the Oponiai ot Spring Campaign , Stock lYnril , Gnrdoii and Flolt PLANT TUBES , franklin ( Scb ) Otiiuil. The plcns.tnt winter is very fnvon bio to orchards and small fruits. 1 is in this respect much like that t 77-8 , tollowing which wiwi the n mnrknblo fruit crop of 1878 , who thousands of buaholfl of fruit wci raised in Nebraska , and nucli n fin poach crop in the middle countries r IB usual after mild winters. Tli spring was very favorable to plant ing. Orchards and vineyards startc that year did remarkably well. Th leisure days of winter should Ivo in proved by planning for the busy day of spring and summer. The hii ; price of corn emphasizes the imporl anco of hnvint ; Lir o pastures forliogi These who planted hodijoa years ag find at the ago of iivo'to six yean osagc hedge can readily bo inado b plashing , to turn pigs as well n cattle , and that by non-ing rye an clover , and planting artichokes i suitable lots , one-half the corn ustinll fed can bo saved. The oxponno an difficulty of growing oaago ludgo hf boon greatly over-estimated. Acre of forest trees should bo planted cue year by every farmer for pratectin and fuel. Five acres judicious ! planted and eared for will , in to years , supply all the fuel needei Unless plans are laid and these in provemonts determined upon , fartnoi nro apt , in the hurry of spring , t overlook such work until too Into f < ; the bust results. Early planting i always moro successful than lato. The Cure of Horses. Uunlap ( Ift ) t ci'Otter. Horses should bo provided wit warm stainbliiiR. No other farm ar imal is so sens.ttvo to cold. The con of the hog is no warmer than th horse's , but it has a greater comparn tivo amount of fat and iti organ nro moro closely aggregated ; whil the kino are provided with a muc thicker hide and heavier coat Urn the horacs. Much of the blindness c horses is duo to exposure to exccpsiv cold. In the eastern states much be tcr stabling is provided than in tli west , and in this connection it is a si : nilicant fact that the proportion < blind horses is considerably less in tli east than in the west. Blooded Stock In Nanco County. Cenoa Lender. J. N. Reynolds , who has been ea : in the states of Illinois and Indian ; returned last Saturday availing. Whil east , Mr. Itoynolds purchased a c.i load of Pine brood marcs , and ono fu blood stallion , of Normnn stock. Th brood mares , Mr. K. informs us , or all line grade. Ho proposes to ae them to Nanco county , and desires t get some good , careful horseman t take a half interest with him in th stallion , with a view to improvin Nanco county horses. This is indooi enterprise in the right direction , an Mr. Reynolds should bo justly com mended for the active interest h takes in this direction. On last Tuei day , Mr. Reynolds purchased 1,50 acres of Nance county land , south the Loup ; will fence the whole wit barb wire this spring , and stock t with five nr six hundred head < young cattle Experlenco in Foedlng Hog's. l > unhp ( lena ) Reporter. An Iowa' farmer put up thirty , oni year-old hogs for fattening , and fc the first twenty days fed them o shelled corn , of which they at eighty-three bushels. During th ; period < hey gained 82" pounds , < ; upwards of ten pounds to the buslu of corn. Ho then fed the same hog for fourteen daj's on dry corn mea during which time they consume forty-seven buaholw and gained < i3 pounds , or 11 pounds to the bushe ! The same hogs next fed 14 days o corn meal and water mixed , consume 00 ? , bushels of corn , and gained 7- ! pounds , or 131 pounds of pork to th bushel. Ifo then fed them M da ; on corn meal cooked , and after coi ; suming 45 bushels of the cooked mei the heirs gained 709 pounds , or vor nearly 15 pounds of pork to a buslu of meal. Patronize Homo Nursorlos. A rorrcspomlmt of the Johnson county ( N'eb Journal wr.tei. "This is no fruit country. I'v tried it , and can't got trees and vine to live , HO I have just quit , disgusted. No doubt wo have , as farmers , hoar the above words quoted frequently , c something -similar. I believe tw words will bo a sutliciont text to u ) plain why wo have such failures. Th words are "trco peddlers. " 1 has been a custom among farn ors in this county to give the orders to these peddlers , and in du time receive1 their trees with very fo1 roots , and these few badly dried ou Consequently their trees and vine would not grow , and the fault was in mediately charged to tlio country Now wo have plenty of mon in ou own county that are known to I honorable and honest , who will fui mah us with anything in the nursor stock line that wo may want , true t name und with good roots , that wi grow and do well with reasonable can Why not order through thoint Exporlmonta with OH Cako. 1'anncu City Kritcrpi | * v , In conversation with County Con missioner Scott , a few days ago , w gathered some very interesting facl as to stock fpcding and particularly rte to feeding oil cako. Mr. S. is prob ; bly the heaviest feeder of stock of a kinds , in the county. He in no feeding for the market 400 sheep- wethors - a carload of cattle and aboi SJiO head of hogs. In addition t these , which are being fattened , li has a number of other sheen and ca tlo and 55 head of horses , Mr. Scol was the first feeder of oil cake , to an extent , in the county. Ho bought car load early in the winter and has about all used. Ho is pleased with ! and is of the opinion thut his stoc never did hotter , or wore fattonu moro cheaply than this winter II method of feeding is to mukoono-thii the feed oil cako. To hm fattonin cattle ho feeds two quarts to a food ( about five or six pounds a day , an they fatten with remarkable rupidit ; His horses got six oars of corn at feed and about a pound of oil caki and are in line condition. Ho finds i a splendid nppoti/.er , and it alto otlie neil pleased with it. Ho feeds -tV ( pounds a day to his largo lot of stock Prolltablo Stock Omt onX bllft.oUr. That shoqt-nxising in Nebraska i highly profitable 1ms been proven often that a repetition of the state ment soenn nlmcst ridiculous. Nov ortholos * it in n thought that shonli bo impressed moro forcibly upon th minds of the farmora in this state and anything that will turn the ! thoughts to an investigation of th subject is a blesiing to them. Ever ; producer should have a few bond t > sheep on his farm , for they : vro o invaluable assislnnco in dostroyiiij obnoxious weeds , and turning yoo land into good tillable soil , bcsidci the yearly revenue to ho doiivod fron them , whioh in proportion to othc investments , is very large. Tin ready demand for wool keeps tin price at such a figure as to mulio tin clippings alone pay a handsome return turn upon the money invested , am when wo add to this the incroaio ii the flock and the increasing vnluo o the sheep each year , the figures presented sonted show so largo a profit that it i : a matter of surprino that the farmer do not invest a spare dollar in theii purchase. It is true , sheep-raisin ) M sometimes unprofitable. They bo c'imo discnod and die at a rapid rate Hut in nearly every instance sucl losses are traceable to the grosses carelessness , and shameful ignoranci of the wants of thu Hock , NVi I proper attention given them , there i : little danger of the sheep becominj diseased , and in such cases they return turn to the owner a big per cent. 01 the investment. The Profits of Onions. Aln ( Neb.lUr M. * John Everson , of Alma precinct last spring purchased ono pound o onion seed , paying $4.50 for the same Ho sowed the seed , gave the cro ] careful cultivation , and gatheret forty-live bushels of onions , which hi sold at $2 00 pur bushel , amountiiij to $00. Bi-aiiU'3 this ho has threi pecks of sots which ho proposes ti plant early the coinintr season fo early onions , which at live cents po bunch , will jield him § 20.00 more Ho will uleo sow three pounds o onion seed the coming spring. Cultivating Tobncco. I'lcmont lluruhl. The amount of tobacco used in thi county every-year for sheep dip make it advisable for some one acquitinte < with tobacco culture to undertake to lucco raising to supply this demand Tobacco has been successfully raiscc hern almost every year since 1873 and wo are convinced that iu , wouli pay to raise it in larger quantities. Nebraska Fruit. The Alma Herald has been showi samples of gr.ipes , cherries , raspber ries , gooseberries and other frui grown during the past season by Hat Ian county farmuis , which demon stratcs that the climate and soil of th section is admirably adapted to frui growing. The first shown wore oxcollcn ppecimons of gooseberries , chorrie and raspberries grown by P. W. Fun nessey , of Alb'any precinct. Mr. Fen nesscy had nn abundance of smal fruit grown on trees and buthe plnntcd in the spring of 1880 , no quite two years ago. Louis Cramer , near Orleans , had : fine largo orchard of growing trees and 1,600 grape vines some of tin latter bearing a few bunches of full flavored fruit , although it was then first season. Mr. C. has 200 more trees 'heeled in" to plant in tin spring. Mr. J. W. Carrothers , also near Or leans , has a finu orchard growing nice ly and surrounded by 'a fine osagi hedge fence. B. F. Thrasher , of Spring Creel precinct , planted a largo number o. . apple trees last season , and all bul two are growing line ; alsoCapt. Baker of the same precinct , has a line lot o fruit trees growing. Theodore Schrack , of Lowisbur ; precinct , is growing u iico lot of frui1 trees and shrubs. Many other farmers nre successfully growing fruit trc < > s in the county which will como into bearing nex season. Oonoral Notes. Some of the Kaunas fanners raisi sunflowers for fuel. When ripe am thoroughly dry these woods make ex collpnt fuel , and in localities whuri prairie land is plentiful and limbo : scarce it pays to raise sunflowers. Bare pastures and poor cattle are i euro consequence of overstocking land The grass should gain on the animal during the growing Reason. Cattle that are obliged to eat night and du ; to Hatisfy their appetites cannot ma tnro properly. Give both the gras and the cows n chances and do no crowd your pastures.Dunlap ( la. Reporter.
