The Care of Orchards.


The orchards should not be neglected
this month. Pruning tends to throw the
strength of the tree into making fruit
buds for next years crop, and to improv-
ing the size of next years fruit. Wounds
made now heal readilv and soundly. Young
trees should be carefully watched to pre-
vent over-bearing, and it would be well if
all trees which give prospect of larger
crop could have two-thirds of the fruit
plucked off this month, thus saving the
strength of the tree, and producing a
larger, fairer fruit, which will sell for the
highest market rates. The nests of the
tent caterpillars and their inmates should
be destroyed as soon as seen. If canker
worms or codling moths appear to be
plenty, shower the tree with solution Of
Paris green or London purple, mixing at
the rate OF teaspoonful to gallon of
water, and applying freely by means of a
force pump with spray nozzle. The
pumps for this purpose are so cheap now
that every farmer should have one. They
are convenient, not only for this use, but
Tor many other purposes about the farm.
Many other insect pests can be destroyed
or driven away by the showering process,
even when only cold water is used. Bet
ter still, if it is desired, to mix poison,
kerosene or other substance which is
offensive to the insects, with the water.

A Remedy for ..Black Teeth" in Hogs.

Mr.. George G. Meade of Hampton, Va,
says: "When pigs are young they are
liable to have what are called black teeth
They often droop around like a sick
chicken, and unless immediate attention
is given them they will die. Separate
them from the pen. For those that are
not doing well take a round stick and put
it into their mouths; then take pair of
nippers and take out the black teeth. Put
little sulphur and soft soap in their milk
for a few days, and bleed them a little
when they are diseased. The writer has
taken pigs from five to six months old and
so near gone they were unable to stand
upon their feet. By going through the
process they recovered in very short
time. Give your brood sows a long range,
and keep them in a clean condition.
While breeding be sure and give them
little warm food. AS the young grow
older you can add to their food"

THE GOLDEN CROSS WHEAT.

1t has been sixteen

duction OF the Fultz
Wheat in PennSylva-

and proved a great
boon TO wheat grow

to disguise the fact
that al the present
day il does not give
as satisfactory re-
suits as firmerly,
and there Is a great
inquiry among farm
ers for a wheat more

satisfactory in lel-
eral results than the

that millions mix

What has hereto

hcially, nature steps

a single variety. 1t
is a very strong

ceedingly hardy and

A DERRICk'S DESTRUCTION.
Fatal Accident on the Elevated Road
in BROOKLYN.

New York, Feb IA frightful accident
occurred in Brooklyn this morning which
caused the death OF three persons and the
injury Of dozen other. Along Broadway a
section of the Union Elevated road is now in
course of construction. A huge steam der
rick, which was used in building it, was
pulled along the girders as each section was
completed. This morning tho derrick was
started and had been pulled but short dis
tance when the glrders began to spread
outward. Just at that moment
street car was approaching the section, but
the driver did not notice what was going on
overhead. The derrick pressed through the
girders and fell to the ground, striking the
horse car and cutting it in two. The fire de-
partment was called out and an ambulance
sent for, but owing to the escaping steam
and heat it was some time before anything
could be done. Finally the debris was
cleared away and the dead and wounded re-
leased The killed were: Frederick Thomp-
son, street car driver, Charles Kirchner and
Patrick Clark. Two of the injured will
probably die. The others are resting com
fortably.

little effect. The body was taken to Coroner

until his wife arrives. Mr.. Strong was at one
time n prominent and wealthy business man

Mt S5o0,0o0. He became unfortunate in his
business ventures, however and little by lit
tie, owing to this and Il constant drain upon
his resources by appeals to his charitable dis
position, his wealth slipped from his fingers
and finally he lost all. He then embarked in

CHICAGO LIVE STOCK,

CHICAGO, Feb l4.-[Specal Telegram to
the BEE. E.l--CATTLE-Under the light run it
is only reasonable to suppose that values
would rule higher Yet there was little or
no advance on the ordinary run of fat cattle.
Buyers remembered that on last Tuesday we
had light run, that on Wednesday the
number went close up to the largest on
record, hence they reasoned that il the run
did not pan out light tomorrow they might
as well wait and pay the advance tomorrow
as to go in heavy to-day. More than mod
crate receipts are anticipated on account of
the alleged reduction in rates from points
west and northwest of Chicago, rs q reduc-
tion in rates has always been answered by
rush to market of such stock as
the shipper fancies he can dispose
of. About all the cattle were sold before tho
usual hour for the closing Of business, tho

waterway connection between the great lakes
and the Mississippi river to the Gulf by way OF
