Plants IN Cold Frames.

Those who undertake the management of
cold frames FIR the first time are apt to keep
the plants too warm. Cabbage, caulifowers
and lettuce plants are the kinds generally kept
in the frames and they are quite hardy The
whole treatment should be directed toward
keeping the plants perfectly dormant and it
is more necessary to do this at the beginning
of winter than near the end. The sashes
should not be placed over the plants until
freezing weather. There are notmany days dur
ing the winter on which the frames are to be
kept entirely closed. The ventilation, or Civ
ing air" as the gardeners say is done by
sliding down the sashes from the back, or, if
the frames have no cross pieces, by fitting and
placing wedge shaped blocks between them
and the edge of the frame. Whenever the
thermometer stands at ten degrees in the shade
open the sashes for an inch or two. AS the
temperature increases open wider, and at
thirty degrees remove them altogether. If the
plants within the frames are frozen when there
is fall of snow they may remain in that con-
dition for several weeks without injury; but
if there is storm and the plants are at the
time unfrozen it will be necessary TO remove
the snow from the sashes, as the plants would
branch and become weak. Caulifower plants
are rather more tender than the others, and in
zero weather it may be well to cover the sashes
with straw mat or other covering. -Ameracdn

FERTILIzERs.-Mr. Hersy says: Moisture
and air must be let into the soil to make it
give up its plant food. Experience teaches
us that the soil must he loose and light and
be filled with fertilizing materials. and some
of it, not being thoroughly decomposed. is
Tightening it up continually and supplying
the plants food as they need it. Phosphates
and sand will not yield good crop; there is
no carbonic acid there Nitrate OF ammonia
is not the only important ingredient of nutri-
ton of plants. The soil should be pulyerized
and the lertilizing materials so applied that it
will be most available for plant food. The
manure needs stirring as much as the soil,
encouraging change and fastening decompo-
stion, which is beneficial to plant growth. II
is better to manufacture your materialin the
soil than in the manure heap. The ground
work OF the crop should be in the land, where
the plant food can be used readily and rap
idly"

A Row of Pearls

Glistening through coral lips is certainly a
pleasing object; but row of discolored, be-
specked teeth in any mouth at all is grievous
drawback; add to this that such set of teeth
is usually accompanied by imr IRE breath and
one can scarcely imagine anything more obiec-
tionable. SOZODONT, the great purifier OF
the breath and whitener of the teeth obviates
this state of the mouth completely, rescuing its
dental occupants from destruction, and coun

Our County Fair.

The time for the annual fair of the
Blue Earth County Agricultural Society
having been fixed for September l2th,
18th and Nth, it now becomes the duty
Of the farmers and business men through
out the county To use their influence
and strength until that time towards
making the exhibition Il success. The
result Of last years fair was so crafty
ing that those who now have the matter
in charge are encouraged to work with
the determination of making the fair of
1888 superior to any that have preceded
it. As the public mind is now largely
turned to stock raising, which rs it be
comes developed will result in great
increase in the wealth of the county, it
Is urged that those who have good stock
of any kind shall place it on exhibition.
by this means more lively interest
will he awakened, and more general
attention will be paid to tins department
of the farm. Let every one place up
on exhibition some article of farm pro-
duct, dairy work or mechanism, and
make the Fair Of 1883 one of the best
in the State. THIS can be done if but
the proper interest Is shown, and We
have no doubt but tins will be done.
