Evergreens-When to Plant.

One of our readers asks US when is the best
time for planting Evergreens, and why so many
die after plantingl Our answer is that ever.
greens can be safely transplanted during any of
the spring months. They are as certain to live
as an apple tree if planted properly. We plant
them by the thousand every spring and rarely
ever loose one. The reason why so many die
is, that the roots are allowed to become dry be-
fore being planted. 1.-THE roots are kept moist
they are as certain to live as any other tree.
But if the roots are allowed to get dry, you need
not plant them expecting them to live.-VeHey
Farmer.

Oil Anecdotes.

There are numerous oil stories going the
rounds. and among them none are better than
the following:
A darkey was experimenting the boring of a
well one night, the proprietor being anxious to
complete the work, and tn erefore laborins night
and day. The weather was cold, and fire
was burning near the mouth of the we'll. About
midnight vein of gas was struck, and igniting
from the fire, shot up brilliant fame in the
air, illuminating the whole scene. The darkey,
who almost turned white with fear, broke for
his masters house, yelling: "Get up, Massa
Thompson, get up. We've broke trough into
hcll!''
Oil diggers are often annoyed by visitors who
come along and make thousand inquiries.
Have you got oil7" SLOW far down do you
go?" ETC., are repeated till the oil digger loses
his patience. One of them recently painted
sign, which he pointed to when asked how far
down he intended to 60. 1t read: It'll l
strike oil, He'll, or China

How to Kill Gophers.

Take potato che size of a hens egg, divide
it into four parts; take each part and split it
with thin blade, so a. to insert small guam.
tity of strychnine; press it together, and insert
this piece of potato into the hole of the gopher.
If 700 can find them at work and the hole open,
close the hole after placing the potato in it;
but if you shonld not find them at work, seek
for the most recently thrown up hillocks; take
a spade and dig until you find the hole beneath,
in which place the piece of potato charged
with strychnine, and leave the hole open. It
is the habit Of the gopher, to open his hole if
you close it, and to close it if you leave it
open.
] have tried the above experiment with the
greatest success; the remedy is cheap and sim
pie, the smallest quantity of strychnine will be
sufficient in each piece Of potato.
1t is hardly necessary to say that as stryeh-
nine is most deadly of all poisons, it should
not be placed in the hands of any, except the
most cautious. T.B.H.

Carving the WhiD.

in consequence of the driver tagging along, or,
a. is often the practice going ahead of the
team, and from time to time stepping back and
whipping them. A driver Of an OK team should
walk directly opposite the yoke, walk straight,
and carry his whip as upright as a soldier wonld

and touch the cattle only with the lash, and
never strike them On the nose or over the eyes.

Testing Seed Corn.

A correspondent of the Nebraska Farmer, If.
ter describing his method Of selecting seed corn
in the field in autumn, and keeping it in mod
erately warm dry place in winter. says that in
the spring he tests it as follows:-"He rolls or
wraps each ear in paper; twists the little end,
and shears of the paper at the big end down
even with the ear. He then draws out the
ear carefully and shells it. If the shelled corn
of any ear does not gil the paper it is vgested
In this way he sorts out the heavy kerneled and
small cob grades, and is improving his crop"

to the Royal Dublin Society, on cement which
he obtains BY melting together in an iron yes
sci, two parts weight Of common pitch with one
part Of gutta percha. IL forms q homogeneous

purposes than gutta percha, alone and which
after being poured into cold water may be cast
Iy wiped dry and kept for nse. The cement ad
heres with the greatest tenacity to wood, stone,
porcelain, ivory, leather, parchment paper, hair,
feathers, silk woollen cotton, linen fabrics, etc.
