A ring of salt at a little distance
from choice plant forms a barrier

Plants and beds of vegetables
should always DE watered in the even
ing, after sunset, in preference to any
other time of the day; but especially
should watering plants in the heat Of

Successful strawberry culture de-
mands thorough cleaning of the beds

i, "A statement in the Ontario Forestry
report shows that the right way to
transplant fine trees is to take them IN
early in the spring and keep the roots
encased in frozen ball of earth, to be
removed with the tree. Out of seven
hundred and fifty young pines moved in
this manner some years ago all but five
lived.
When frosty nights approach we
often have one or two cold nights and
then week or two of warm pleasant
weather; if squash vines bearing
squasheS that are almost matured, can
be protected through the first frosts,
they will mature their fruit in the sunny
days that follow. Indianapolis Sen

Gardens have generally an excess
OF coarse barn-yard manure and de-
ticiency of potash and phosphates.
Many garden plants, especially turnips
and cabbages, will be greatly helped
in such gardens by substituting an APP
plication of phosphate for the usual
spring dressing of stable manure. -

With we'll cared for ounce tree
there is no ''off year" It's golden fruit
is as certain to ripen as its season is to
return. But well cared for tree is
notsa mass of bushes, and it's roots have
been protected from the extremes of
heat and cold by mulching. Owing to
the tenderness of its roots, there is only
limited area in which ounces can be
profitably grown. In places where ex-
treme cold prevails in winter, with lit
tie snow, it does not pay to plant the
ounce. Y Times.
Veal chops prepared in this way
are excellent: Cut the chops from the
leg in pieces about four inches long,
half an inch thick and three inches
wide. Dip them into beaten egg; roll
in zwieback crumbs (bread dried in the
oven and finely grated or beaten in a
mortar) and fry a delicate brown in
water or nice drippings. When done,
sprinkle few drops Of lemon Juice and
place a few capers on each; garnish
with slices of lemon and sprigs of pars-
ley and serve hot.-Boston Globe.
