Hot wafer for Plants

II is fortunate circumstance that a
plant will endure a scalding heat that is
fatal to most Of its minute enemies.
Water heated to the boiling point.
poured copiously over the stem of an
enfeebled peach tree, and allowed to
stand about its collar, will often have
the happiest restorative effects. Trees
showing every symptom Of the yelows
have often been rendered luxuriantly
green and thrifty by this simple means.
The heat is presumably too much for the
fungus which had infested the vital
layers of the tree, immediately under
the outer bark.
The London florists recommend hot
water, up to 145 degrees Fahrenheit, as
a remedy, when plants are sickly owing
to the soil souring-the acid, absorbed
by the roots, acting as a poison. The
usual resort is to the troublesome lob of
repotting. When this is not necessary
for any other reason, it is much simpler
to pour hot water freely through the
stirred soil; it will presently come
through tinged with brown. After this
thorough washing if the plants are kept
warm, new root points and new growth
will soon follow.
A lady friend had fine calla in a
three gallon pot which showed signs of
Ill health. On examination the outer
portion of the filing was found mouldy,
1t being in large part horse manure. As
repotting was inconvenient, the plant
being in flower, hot water was freely
used. 1t killed the mould, and the
plant began to revive and was soon all
right Vik's Ma0azine.

A Big Price for a Tree

Curly Walnut is highly valued by
veneer makers, if it contain the right
kind of figure. A curious story comes
from West Virginia about curly log.
A woodsman found tree somewhere in
the region about Kanawha Falls that he
concluded was very valuable. He Sc
cured sample and forwarded it to a
handler of such wood in Baltimore
The result was that the discover received
an offer for the tree, probably amount.
ing to $4,000. subsequently the Balti-
more man sold a share of the chance to
an Indianapolis dealer, who opened negoa
tiations with the woodsman for posses
sion of the prize, at length going to
West Virginia to prosecute the enter
prise. When the affair had reached this
stage the woodsman concluded that the
tree was worth $4,000, and demanded
that sum for it, or he would not yield
up his knowledge. Seeing that the In
dianapolis man was bound to find the
tree, if possible, the discoverer cut it
down and buried it in the earth A
thorough search has as yet, failed to re-
veal the hiding place of the log, and the
man who holds the secret declares that
nothing but $1,000 will bring it to the
surface, --Detr0H Frte Press.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Possibilities OF Corn Podan,

Perhaps no crop the farmer grows can
be the subject of moro imaginative spec
ulation than corn fodder. It's possibili-
ties are immense. Thirty tons per acre
are easily grown on rich land, and with
the large varieties planted closely more
has been produced. Thirty tons is an
immense amount Of feed. Preserved
green it will give sixty pounds day to
ten cows for 100 days. Divide this by
half or by three for moderate Weld. and
II still gives far ahead of the capacity for
keeping stock by an acre of ordinary hay.
1t must be remembered, however, that
corn fodder at its best is not a perfect
ration. 1t is always deficient in the ele
ments for making muscle and bone.
When grown in excessively large crops
corn fodder is beside watery and innu.
tritious. Considering the amount of
laborrequired to handle these large Yields
it is better to plant so as to allow cult.
walton and at least some nubbins of ears.
Ten or twelve tons of fodder may be
grown on an acre in this way, and with,
in most cases, more profit to the feeder
than the larger and more expensive crop.

Nasal Voices, Catarrh and False
Toeth.w

A prominent English woman says the
American women all have high, shrill, nasal
voices and false teeth.
Americans don't like the constant twitting
they get about this nasal twang, and yet IL Is
a fact caused by our dry stimulating atmos-
phere, and the universal presence of catar-
rhal diffultics.
But why should 50 many Of our women

That Is moro OF a poser 10 the English It
is quite impossible to account for IL except
on the theory Of deranged stomach action

Both conditions are unnatural
Catarrhal troubles everywhere prevail
and end In cough and consumption, which
are promoted by mal-nutrition induced by
deranged stomach action. The condition is

ana whose milk is excellent for this pur-
pose, devote their herds to the production
OF milk for sale, finding a good demand
fer the calves, which sell al prices which
repay the cost of rearing them. Some

stems, or Ayrshires The first being the
best cattle for beef, fattening very easily
and rapidly when the yield of milk is
falling below profitable point, which is
from eight to ten quarts a day. the
second making fair beef, especially If
they have cross of Shorthorn in their
breeding and the third being fairly good
beef cattle for local consumption. Each
kind is a good milking COW and pro-
duces heavy, well-favored and dense
milk which goes a long way in coloring
tea and coffee, and suits the necessities
OF consumers in every way.
In the summer the cows are pastured,
but get their usual ration of corn meal,
and, when the grass begins to fail, are
fed green crops cut and carried to the
yard, or into feeding lots where they are
kept. The principal crop fed is corn
fodder, grown in drills and cultivated as
well as if planted for grain. The main
crop on these farms is grass for pasture
and hay, and Western corn is purchased
for feeding. The reason for this is, that
corn is thus produced more cheaply and
easily than it can begrown here, and can
be purchased, while hay is not easily
transported and cannot be bought profit
ably. Coarse feed should always be
grown in preference to grain food, and
this can be procured outside of the farm,
while the other cannot.
Partial soiling is indispensable for
feeding the cows on milk farm, for a
regular supply of milk must be had
every day, aud this can only be kept up
after the grass fails by liberal feeding Of
succulent green fodder. Ensilage is also
most useful resource, as it provides
succulent food in winter. Where a salts
factory supply of brewers grains, glu-
cose meal and malt sprouts can be pro-
cured cheaply, these will take the place
of ensilage and can be preserved in the
same way. With these foods, hay must
be fed as Complementary fodder, and
the two kinds will be sufficient for all
purposes without ensilage.

Tomato Culture.

AT a meeting of New England mar
ket gardeners association one of the
members read an interesting essay on
tomato culture. He said he had tried
various dates, from January to June, for
starting tomato seed, but he considered
about March 20 the best time for the
earliest plants, and few weeks later for
the late crops 1t is not we'll to start the
seeds too early. The plants, if held
back and checked in their growth, as
they must be when started early, are apt
to suffer from blight.
10 start tomato seed requires a good
heat so that the seed will como up in
four or five days, and in two weeks will
be ready to plant out, 200 to a sash, in
another bed also prepared with a good,
fresh heat, so as to keep the plants grow
ing. AT the second transplanting, when
they are set about seven or eight inches
apart, they need some heat, though far
less than before, and it is usual to set
them at this time on an old heat, after
lettuce or raddish crops, raising the
planks of the frame so as to give a foot
OF space between the bed and the glass
for the plants to grow. The bed must e
well aired, taking the glass entirely off
In fine weather for week or two before
setting lout, which is done May 10 to
June ]. Well grown plants are stocky
with branches and not over foot high.
Before planting, the bed must be well
wet day beforehand so as to have the
loan stick to the roots.
Tomatoes will grow on very poor land
In wet. season, but to insure good
crop they should have rich land a side
hill with blue gravel subsoil, will give
excellent crops; land that has been
heavily manured the year before will
grow better tomatoes than land freshly
manured with coarse manure. He liked
to set them seven or eight feet by three or
four, the wide spaces giving room for
picking. Cultivate often and keep clean
TIL the vines run so as to prevent work
ing.
The few scattering tomatoes that are
borne on the ends of the plant do not
amount to much, although they often
sell for s. or more bushel The part
of the crop that usually brings the most
money is the first and second setting9of
fruit upon the branches The late pick
ings, though often very heavy, are usu-
ally not very profitable on account of the
low price.
Rough, gnarly fruit showed want of
thrift in the plant, often caused by rough
land or rough manure. To grow pro-
iitable crop skill in handling the plants
is required, and more depends on this
than on the seed, although some varie.
ties are earlier than Others and after all
chance or luck has a good deal TO dc
with growing an early crop. The tomato
is used all the year round in all civil
lied countries, and its use. has become a
necessity.

Milk Dairyine.

Henry Stewart says in the American
-Aqricutturist: The production of milk
for sale is business of very large extent.
The quantity of milk sold and used for
domestic purposes by Others than farmers
is unquestionably equal to ne-tenth as
much as that used in butter and cheese
making. With six million farmers who
produce milk in our whole population.
and whose families comprise thirty mill
ion persons, there are as many more in
the United States who consume milk,
and estimating one quart as the daily
consumption of each family of FIVE
persons, there must be at least million
cows kept for the production of milk for
sale This business is always increasing
with the growth of cities aud towns,
which require systematic supply.
