Early x Garden Stun.

The true gardener-the man with a
genuine love for his work-always likes
to be ahead of his neighbors with his
early vegetables and fruits.
If Adam had had little competition,
or q smart neighbor on either side
bound to get the first mess of pease and
the earliest potatoes, we think it a
chance if he had "fallen.'' There's
nothing like occupation to keep a man
up, and nothing like friendly rivalry to
give q zest to labor. As near as we can
make out, the first gardener had moth
ing to do but fool around and watch
things grow and ripen. There were no
weeds, nor frosts, nor backward springs
no swindling seedsmen, vagrant
COWS, marauding chickens or robber
birds-no "pusley." as Dudly Warner
would add. If Eve had come around
with her soft talk when he was fighting
potato bugs, or wedding an onion bed.
or hunting for slugs at the roots of his
lima bean stalks, she would have met
with different reception. Temptation
doesn't tempt, if man is busy and q
little cross. The question of the verac-
ity of the serpent could only have in
terested an idle man.
But we didn't intend to drop into
moralizing when we began to write
about "garden sass" The point we
had in mind was to nudge our garden
ing friends on one side, and hold them
back on the other. The very small
minority who have lighthouses or cold
frames can take care of themselves-if
they know how. But the average gar
den-planter, who relies on unassisted
Nature, 10 often puzzled as to the best
means to advance his early crops. He

Clothes Moths.

THIS name includes several distinct
but similar species of the minute moths
belonging to the family 1ineiap, which
in their larval state, are very destruc-
tive to wooden goods, fur, hair and SINH
lar substances. Among them may be
mentioned the clothes moth (7inea Ucs-
tianella), the carpet moth Tinea tapct-
zella), the fur moth e. pellionella), and
the hair moth (7Inea crinclla). These
tineans have slender bodies and lanceo-
late, freely fringed wings that expand
six-tenths or eight-tenths of an inch
The antennW and palpi are short and
thread-like, and there is a thick or
angc or brown tuft on the forehead.
The colors range from buff to drab and
dark gray. The eggs are laid in May
and June (the moth dying immediate
ly aftcrward), and hatch out in fifteen
days. The young worms at once pro-
coed to work, gnawing the substances
within their reach and covering them
selves with the fragments, which they
shape into hollow rolls and line with
silk. These rolls are by some carried
OH their backs as they move along, and by
others fastened to the substance they
are feeding upon; and they are en-
larged from time to time by additions
to the open extremities and by pOr-
tions let into the sides, which was split
open for this purpose. In such am
bush the worms carry on their work of
destruction through the summer; rest,
in seeming torpor, during the winter;
and change to chrysalids early in the
spring. They transform again in
twenty days, and issue from their shell
ter as winged moths, to fly about in the
evening till they have paired and are
ready to lay eggs. Then follows an in
vasion of dark closets, chests and draw
ers, edges of carpets, folds of cur
tains, and hanging garments, and the
foundation of a new colony is swiftly
laid.
The early days of June should herald
vigorous and DISCRIMINATING warfare
against these subtle pests. Closets,
ward-robes, all receptacles for clothing.
should be emptied and laid open, their
contents thoroughly exposed to light
and air, and well brushed and shaken
before being replaced. In old houses
much infested with moths, all cracks
in floors, wainscots, shelves or furni-
ture should be brushed over with spir-
its of turpentine. Camphor or tobacco
should be placed among all garments,
furs, plumes, ETC., when laid aside for
the summer. To secure cloth-linings
of carriages from the attacks of moths,
sponge them on both sides with solu-
ton of corrosive sublimate of mercury
in alcohol, made just strong enough not
to leave a white mark on a black feath-
er. Moths may be killed by fumigat-
ing the article containing them with
tobacco or sulphur, or by putting it,
if practicable, into an oven heated to
about $50 degrees Fahrenheit.-Pof.

loses time by attempting to crowd the

loses time by attempting to crowd the
season one year, and gains by appar-
emily untimely planting another. One
thing, however, is pretty plainly taught
by experience and that is, that no
matter how fair the sky nor unseasona-
bly, warm the air, nothing is gained by
working the ground until it is dry and
warm, or planting seeds until Nature
shows a disposition to grow things al
ready planted. A good start is one of
the necessary conditions of rapid and
healthful growth in very many garden
crops; and this is too often prevented
by hurrying seeds or plants premature
ly into g the cold, cold ground" Ma
ture knows; remember that, and study
her.
A radish, for example, in order to be
perfect in tenderness, juiciness, and
flavor, needs to grow without pause
from the hour the seed is put in the
ground until it comes to the table; and
there shouldn't be many days between
the periods, under proper conditions.
Pease, on the contrary, will push ahead
rapidly, when the weather becomes
warm, although they had cold and
tedious time in starting The potato is
an obstinate vegetable, and won't sprout
till its time comes. We have, however,
thanked its disposition, and gained two
weeks in the maturing, by this treat
ment: Cut the tubers into single eyes,
and put them in layers between coat
ings of sand or earth, in a shallow box
in a warm room, two or three weeks be-
fore the earliest reasonable planting
time. They will sprout and root finely,
and when the earth is warm transplant
them carefully into rows, eight inches
apart, fertilizing with wood ashes or
super phosphate, A very little pains
will secure an uninterrupted growth,
and eatable potatoes the latter part of
June.
Lettuce will pay for starting and
transplanting in the same way, and also
early beets and other hardy vegetables.
The tender sorts can't be hurried so
well, though we always put out few
tomato plants, on a venture, a couple of
weeks before we think it safe; for if you
lose it doesn't cost much, and if you
win-why, "there you are!''
1t is too early for much of the real
work of gardening; but not too soon to
resolve to have one this year, if you are
blessed with plat of ground, and to
begin to take Time by the fore-lock.-

What Shade. Trees to Plant.

THERE is great satisfaction in know
ing what selection of shade-trees those
who are competent to Judge would
make for road or lawn planting. Just
such information is now before the pub
lie, and it will prove Of very great value
to those who intend to beautify their
road-sides or private grounds. The
Park Commission of Washington, D.
g.. composed of three men of high
standing in horticultural circles, have
planted miles of street-trees, number
ing about 10000. The bulk of these
are made up of twelve varieties, and
are named herewith in the order in
which the commission valued them for
the purpose: White maple (Acer dasy-
cGrpu1s), American linden (Tilia Anscr-
icana), American elm (Ulmms Anseri-
cana). scarlet maple (Acer rmbrmna),
box elder (Negudo aceroides), sugar
maple (Acer saccharisans), American
white ash (Frarinus Anaericana), En-
glish sycamore (Acer psesdorlatanus), ,
button-ball (Psatanus oyientalis), tulip
tree (Liriode:sdron tulipifera), honey
locust (Gled;tschisa tri0cankhos), Nor
way maple deer platanoides).
This is an excellent assortment to
select from for roadside planting.
Each variety here named when full
grown assumes handsome proportions,
and most of them have brilliant and at
tractive foliage in the fall. In planting
shade-trees along the roadside, espe-
cially in a clay country, they should be
set at least fifty feet apart, for if closer
there will be too much shade, and bad,
wet roads in the spring are sure to fol-
low. This close planting should also
be strenuously avoided in decorating
private grounds. Any system that ex-
cludes the free access of sun and air
from the dwelling house is pernicious.
10 wherever. one may he will find this
faulty system of close planting in vogue,
and in eight cases out of ten there are
two trees or shrubs on space where
enc would have been enough. The
plea for this is desire for immediate
effect. The remedy is to cut down in
time every other tree. This last is sell
dom. If ever, carried out.-P. 7. O., in
Scvibner for April.

Baby's Business.

ONE of the common errors of mex
perienced young mothers is in relation
to the clothing of their babies. They
are SO afraid that it shall not he suffi-
Gent, that they err on the other side,
and make it absurdly abundant, and the
poor little subjects of their solicitude
are found at a red heat that fevers and
weakens the feeble frame, and renders
it much more liable to any illness than
it otherwise might be. Certainly the
child should be kept warm, and should
never be allowed to know a chilly sem
sation, but it should not be kept too
warm; yet, in our own experience, we
we have heard many a young mother
complain of her baby's restlessness and
wakefulness at night, when nothing in
the world was the matter but undue
warmth, and the perspiration on the
little wet pillow might have told the
whole story. Another very frequent
cause OF restlessness is too tight band
age about the body. Many a child
writhcs in perpetual uneasiness, if
not in a black-faced collie, because the
good, efficient nurse, in her determine
ton to secure fine figure and an east
ly-handled bundle, has pinned the lit
tie flannel band so tightly as in the one
case to be very uncomfortable, and in
the other to obstruct the digestive proc
esses.
We, of the present day, dress chill
dren, in this respect, much more wise
ly than our ancestors did few genera
tons since. Then the wilderness of
swaddling-bands was something fearful
to think of; heart and lungs and stom-
ach were confined, at the option of any
ignorant woman who had the charge Of
the child at the time, till results Of the
worst description frequently ensued.

The articles of q baby's clothing, it is
thus understood, should all be comfort

should be of flannel. Many mothers,
in their love of the beautiful, prefer the

underwear; but although this may be
very pleasing to the eye, they should
remember that their babies are not
