Most growers agree that keeping to-
matoes off the ground is a great adj
vantage. Stakes d trellises are now
used to agreat extent to train them
to. A common way is to train to single
stakes of about four feet in height tying
the plant to the stakes as it grows.
This is little or no Improvement over
the old way Of letting them lie on the
ground. A much better plan is to set
the plants in rows Of three or four feet
apart, and the plants three feet IN the
row. Before setting the plants, dig out
a couple Of spits of earth, and set in
three branches of trees-twiggy ones
are best-in triangular form, with the
tops spreading outwards. Set the
plant in the centre of this, and as it
grows keep the shoots inside Of the
stakes by passing a string around them.
Tifere is no better va sss seea
clean fruit tomatoess As everything
generally has some disadvantage with it,
SO this way of growing tomatoes is not
perfect. When the plants are allowed
to run over the ground they keep the
soil cool and moist. 1t follows that
tying up to stakes produces the oppo-
site effect, and the plants suffer the
sooner from summer droughts. This
can be easily remedied by mulching
around the plants with something to
break the suns rays. If nothing else is
at hand cornstalks answer admirably.
Tomatoes produce such a mass Of foliage
that they require Inuch moisture, and it
is surprising how they thrive when by
mulching or other means the ground
is never allowed to become too dry.

Danger on the Atlantic.

A gentleman writes to the London
Times: II have recently twice crossed
the Atlantic, in both instances in steam
ers Of great tonnage and the highest
speed, and ! have gone down to my cab
in at night to turn in with a feeling that
nothing but the Providence which ats
up aloft, and, in looking after poor
Jack, has to perform the same duty
for passengers, could avert a fatal acct
dent il any vessel approached ours at
the same speed. Through dark, thick
nights, amid binding storms Of hail
still we drove ahead at fifteen or six
teen knots seventeen or eighteen miles
an hour roughly, with the most reck-
less disregard of what We might chance
to meet. 1t is true that every known
~precaution was taksn,S lookout men on
both sides forward, and the officers
most vigilant, but still 1 contend That
with vessels Of such immense length it
would have been absolutely impossible
to sheer out Of tho way Of a vessel "
ing to under close rSafs or . steamax
coming end on"

A generation or two back q man like
Charles Francis Adams, IT,, would nat
urally have gone into politics, as indeed
his grandfather and his father did. as
we'll as his grandfather before him.
Our modefn party systems, however.
offer no inducements and few opportun-
tiles for such men to devote themselves
to public affairs and Mr. Adams has Civ
en- his life to the pursuit which is Of
next importance to politics in this coun-
try, railroading. His occasional APP
pearances in Massachusetts politics have
been only an amateur, his revolution in
the public schools being something ont
side Of politics. There is probably no
man in America who has studied the
whole railroad business, IN its Largest
relation as we'll as in its minute details
SO thoroughly as he. He has been i
railroad commissioner and q director
and has written much and well on rail
road management and finance, and now
that he has become president of the
Union Pacific he will have opportunity
to give some of his well-formed ideas q
practical exemplification.

they are four weeks old. Having d

be fed three times q Gay, and suppileu
with fresh clean water morning, noon,
and evening. and coarse ccrn-meal, not
the cracked meal, but the ground meal,
scalded with sufficient water to swell it,
but not to make it mushy, is the best
food. Wheat screenings for a change
and a feed of crushed or pounded fresh
bone will be found healthful and salts
flying. Then a run ia a grassy or weedy
field, where they can find insects and
some green food, will keep them in
health and growing. AT s weeks old
they are large enough for broilers, and

Recent frosts have injured the grow
ing crops to, some extent throughout the
country, but not so much as was at first
supposed.
Wisconsin's dairy products, the lar
gest Of any State in the Union, amount
ed last year to $19, 800, 900. There are
in the State one thousand creameries
and cheese factories and 800, 900 cows.
A Maryland poultry raiser thinks
that a pint of epson salts to a half peck
Of meal, fed to chicks, is the best rene
dy for gapes.
MI. George Fl. Lee, Greece, N. Y,
has averaged thirty five bushels of wheat
per acre on a 100-acre field, and some-
times on smaller surfaces harvested as
high as forty eight bushels per acre.
Mention is made in The Poultry World
of a farm where Leghorn fowls are kept,
only hens which lay large eggs are bred
from, "and as a natural result all eggs are
of good size"
Cucumbers intended for picking pur.
poses need not be planted till July.
The land for them should be such as
has been well cultivated the year preyi-
Gus, and the manure should be fine and
well rotted. In order to guard against
the attacks of birds and insects an ex-
cess of seed should be used, thinning
out the extra plants after they are up.
Dr.. N. H. Paaren, State Veterinarian
of Illinois, well says that the periodical
epidemic alarms do great injury to
cattle interests, and he reminds those
who start such reports that sthe pluro-
pneumonia scare of a few years ago was
the cause of England placing an embar-
go upon our beef
There is q strong feeling in various
portions of the United States in favor
of the total abolition of fences. 1t is
stated that the cost of the maintenance
of fences annually in this country is not
far short of $50, 600 900, a pretty snug
sum if it might be saved to the farmers.
1t is estimated that there are 5000 900
miles of fencing in all in this nation.

Helpful Hints.

Cracked earthenware should never
be used for cooking purposes.
If you wish to retain the color III
strawberries do not allow them to come
IN contact with pewter or tin.
A tea made of lettuce leaves has been
recommended for wakefulness.
Equal parts Of chloroform and alco-
hol will remove paint spots from cot
ton goods.
To test jelly drop a little in q glass
Of ice water; if it falls to the bottom
Immediately the jelly is done.
When roasting a large and fat loin Of
mutton cover it with a paper during the
EARLIER stages ofits roasting, to obYiate
scorching.
When fruit must be scalded to arrest
fermentation it should be boiled for sew
eral minutes.
A little powdered resin sPr;nklea on to
a cut is preventive of inflammation;
wrap a thin cloth around the finger and
wet it with water frequently.
Borax should be used with ~glycerine
to prevent its darkening the skin and
making it over sensitive.
DR.. Rasori recommends the use of a
tuning fork in the treatment of neural
gic pains, the instrument to be applied
while vibrating, oyer the course Of the
painful nerve.
One small red pepper or a few pieces
of charcoal placed in the kettle where
ham, cabbage, etc, are boiling, will
tend to diminish the odors proceeding
therefrom.
To remove tan and sunburn, cold
cream, mutton tallow and lemon juice
may be used; for freckles, apply the
latter with a camels hair brush.
Samples of material used to color
coffee were recently tested in Brooklyn,
N. Y, and found to contain s~ilesia,
chrome orange, yellow ochre, Venetian
red, charcoal, French chalk and gum
arabic. The board of health found
enough arsenic in each cup of coffee to
make a full medicinal dose.
Blotting paper, satuated with a solu-
tion of oxalic acid and dried, viii absorb
the ink of a blot and also the blot itself
if the ink, is unmixed with indigo or
aniline color. Writing can be made
legible again by adding f~errocyanide of
potassium or gallic acid.
DR.. Hall, in his Journal Of Health,
says: "The essential, the fundamen-
tai, the all controlling agency in the
arrest of any case of consumptiye dis
ease, and return to reasonable health
for any considerable time, is an active,
courageous and hopeful outdoor life,
In all weathers and in any latitude, with
some rousing motive, Other than regain
ing the health, reckoning them on, to
do and to dare.

mar missionary in the Namaqua coun-
try: aIn April, 1883, there arrived d
vessel, the lilly, in Angra Pequena Bay,
the only port of Great Namaqua. She
belonged to the Bremen house Of Lued-
eritz. The acquisition of the territory
was accomplished in the following Sim
pie manner Some OF the gentlemen on
board landed, asked to whom the coun-
try belonged, and on learning that the
King Of Bethany was the owner, they
went to him and bought the harbor and
the whole coast range for eco old mus
kets and 1, 300 marks in gold-a ridicu-
lous price for o territory almost twice
as large as the Grand Duchy Of Hesse.
Since that time the western portion of
this country is German property, and
the other day q German man-of-war,
the Garcia, was here in order to chase
away an English man-of-war that had
come to keep . sharp lookout for mer-
chant men. The English we're rather
astonished at being told that in the
waters Of . German coast no foreign
man-of-war had anything 10 do, Since
then Mr.. Luederitz arrived here In q
steamer for the purpose Of taking q look

are TO arrive for mining purposes, the

We hear a great deal about the diff
Guilty Of making poultry pay when kept
in large numbers, and numerous fall
ures to do so serve as warnings to
novices thinking Of undertaking the
really difficult, though apparently easy
enterprise. That with the right sort
Of knowledge and a fair amount Of
gumption it can be done is, however,
shown by the example Of ID. ". An
drews, of Essex County, Mass. who,
In a note to us, thus epiton1izes his ex-
perience: II started poultry keeping
in 1868. and it took me a few years to
get the hang Of the business; but now
/ am master of it, and can make ii al
ways profitable. In 1872 / had 500
hens, and my total receipts from them
were 50. 900. 40, while their feed cost
me 81, COS. rs, leaving a clear profit Of
~, 1862 over the outlay for feed. In
1881 ! had 1900 hens; my total res
ceipts were $4,425; the feed consumed
cost $1,656, leaving a clear profit of
~, 1892 for my labor. The profit de-
ponds on the grain market, the egg
market, and the skill Of the poultry
