horticultural Hints.
From the Ohio Farmer.


We pick up our knowledge as the
fow1 picks up the coma grain at a
time.
One pound of potatoes carefully cut
will make one hundred sets. These
will plant hundred hills that should
raise from two to three bushels.
Soak beet and carrot seed from
twelve to twenty-four hours before SOW
ing. This forwards termination and
helps them to come up as quickly as
weeds.
Thin plants and vegetables sufficient
ly; they must have room according to
size.
Peas and corn may be forwarded by
soaking the seed. Keep damp and
warm. Do not plant peas twice on the
same ground the same or following
season.
Weeds should be collected and re-
moved from the ground after being
pulled or hoed up, they often root and
grow. The best way Is to burn them,
ROOT and branch.
Tomato plants when set if over threl
inches tail should be laid down and
covered except few inches of top
they will give better results. Keep the
ground rich.
Topdress the ground which pumpkins
and squash run over.
Spinach should be topdressed with
guano or composted dropplngs of fowls
But above the crown, it will produce
successive crops.
Rhubarb needs rich soil and plenty OF
manure about it's roots; removed to a
dark cellar in autumn, covered with
good moist soil, produces good stalks
of nice flavor.
Squash, cucumber, melon and pump
kin seed put in hills and covered will
be forwarded by carefully pouring on
boiling water and turning over them a
box or vessel to keep the heat in. 1t is
especially good In late planting
Eternal vigilance IS the price of veg
etables.
The thumb and finger is the best
'!squash bug" trap yet known. Dust
often with sulphur, alr-sleaked lime or
plaster; use on cabbage and turnip to
protect from f1eas.
Begin In season to make your garden

eighteen inches apart and thin will pro

early purple top strop leaf turnip be
tween the rows.
Plants do not eat manure, they drink
the essence of it.
Drop few tomato seed with peas,
when the peas are removed thin to four
feet apart they will come on rapidly
and make excellent late tomatoes
Plant beets rather thickly those
taken out wheI thinning make excellent
green's.
In cultivating with fork or rake work
backward to avoid showing footprints.
One large, strong eye left on potato
sets throws up one strong stalk and
gives large potatoes. Several stalks
give many small ones.
Four to six hills of cucumbers will
supply family. Plant for pickles in

A PHYSICIAN WHO HEALED HIMSELF

A PHYSICIAN WHO HEALED HIMSELF.
If a railroad director were dashed to every
locomotive, there would be fewer railroad
accidents, and if doctors had to take their
own physic before administering it to their
patients, fewer people would be poisoned.
DR.. Joseph Walker, of California, took this
course when he first compounded the famous
Vinegar Bitters which now rank as an ines
Unable household remedy in all parts of the
United States. He healed himself with this
specific before he offered it to the world. He
introduced it with a simple statement of the
manner in which he had discovered it's vege-
table ingredients and been cured, Will" wan
dering sick and poor among the California
tribes. He stated what the prepar alton h&d
done for himself and a few sufferers from
dyspepsia, biliousness, rheumatism, lung dis
eases, and many other prevalent disorders,
believed him, tried the new restorative and
were more than satisfied with the results. In
this way the sale of the Vinegar Bitters began.
and we mention the fact as an evidence that
in this age of intelligence and inquiry, nothing
that is really valuable to mankind can prove q
pecuniary failure even though it may lack
the help of capital, and have to fight its way
against powerful opposing interests. Within
two or three months after its introduction
the article became self-supporting, and it now
yields magnificent annual revenue.-Com.
