A correspondent of the New York Herald writes from Lambertville, N. J., describing remarkable celestial sight which he witnessed at Bordentown on last Thursday evening. It would seem from his abser- vations that it was undoubtedly a meteor, possibly of the stone producing order, but at least quite a large bolide or ‘‘fireball.” The correspondent compares it to the great meteor which visited this part of the country ‘some twenty years ago.” We presume he refers to the celebrated fireball of the even-

Agricultural Notes.

Turpentine has so strong an odor that it will prevent depredations of must insects, and on a small scale is one of the best ap- plications that can be made. A_ corn-cob dipped in turpentine will keep cucumber and squash bugs from the bill to which it is applied. If hung in pium trees it will prevent attacks of the curculio,

One cause of the deterioration of swine is that sows are allowed to breed to early. If a sow has her first pigs at fifteen months it is early enongh. Then if a good mother and good milker, she should be kept as a breeder till four, five, or even six years old. Her pigs will steadily increase in value, and the litters will also be larger than the first one.

Until tress get to the bearing age hoed crops should be the only ones grown among them. It is ruicous to young trees to have wheat or Spring grain growing on the ground. Seeding to clover is equally bad. If the clover is plowed in, the alternate stunting and stimulation produces an un- healthy growth, and the trees are more liable to disease.

Sows about to farrow should be allowed some exercise aud be fed mainly with green food. This will make parturition easier, increase the tendency to give milk and prevent the feverish condition which fren- zies sews so that they often destroy their pigs» A sow that has done this is not apt afterwards to make a good mother, had should be fattened as quickly as pos- 81Dle.

The neglect of privies around farmhouses is the more inexcusable because when they are cared for properly they will furnish a very valuable fertilizer. The contents of the privy should fall into a tight box, whence it can be removed as often as necessary. By keeping dry earth or coal ashes near by to apply as an absorbent and deodorizer, all unpleasant odors may be avoided.

Some spears of Canada thistles will be found in oats and barlé, even where the land the previous season was well culti- vated. It is much less labor than any one supposes to cut these out with asharp hoe at any time before the grain begins to heal out. The sprouts that come up after will be too much shaded by the grain to make serious injury to the crop, and will be too late anyway to ripen seed.

A good set of carpenter tools should be owned by every farmer, while as much of 4 blacksmith’s kit as he can find use for. A farmer with some taste for mechanics can do much building and repairing at times

{when other work is not pressing. Often the

time lost in sending an implement to the shop for repairs is more than it would take to repair it, if the farmer had requisite bits, bolts and screws within reach,

If potatoes have been planted three to four inches deep, considerable cultivation can be done with the -harrow before the spronts are above ground. So soon as the rows can be seen the cuitivator should be run, throwing a little dirt mto the bills so as to cover smal] weeds. If the potato tops are covered at the saine time no harm will be done. Aftera day or two the plants will emerge with renewed vigor, This pro- cess nearly supercedes the necessity for hand hoeing.

The dew which condenses on the leaves of plants is from the vapor of the lower atmosphere and is highly charged with am- monia. It is this which makes it so in- vigorating to plants. As the water dries of much of the ammonia passes away, but what drops on the soil is saved. The moral of this observation is that in plowing grass land the team should be got in the field early in the morning to plow under as much dew as possible. This science con- firms the conclusion of practical farmers.

Bees love high temperature, but in mid- suinmer the combined heat of the sun and their own warmth is too much for them, as is shown by their gathering on the outside of the hives. But it is only at midday that this heat is too great. Mornings and most nights it is just right. Hence dense shade al] the day long does more harm than good, A projecting board to protect from the midday sun, leaving the hive ex- posed mornings and afternoons, is the best kind of shade.

That tools to cut grain or grass should be kept well sharpened is pretty generally un- derstood. But there is equal advantage in keeping a good edge on hoes, cultivators and other aman working the soil itself. ‘As dull as a hoe,” has passed into a by-word indicating obtuseness, but with good farmers the hoe is not dull. Do not put last year’s cultivator into the corn or potatoes without examining the teeth. If much worn either get new ones or send the old to the blacksmith to be made as good as new,

Ata meeting of the New York State Agricultural Society the following conelu- sions were adopted on tke application of manures: 1. Manure which consists chiefly of the droppings of animals should be ap- plied as soon as practicable to the soil 2. Manure consisting largely of straw, cornsta!ks or other fibrous matter, should be first rotted to become fine. 3. Manure should be applied at or near the surface of the soil or should be slightly buried. 4. For hoed crops, and especially for corn crops it may buried deeper than for straw crops:
