Once properly formed, the fig tree requires
little further training. it being only neces-
sary from time to time to remove over
crowded branches and such dead wood as
may appear.
1t was the committees opinion that the
fig tree is not liable to any serious diseases
or ailments; nor has it any active enemy.

classified varieties to recommend for gem

short paper in which was stated that last
season he planted eight or nine varieties of
the fig, some of which would fruit next
year. He had several varieties bearing this
season. With him the Poulette was ia

productive. The quality of the fruit Is ex-

Such frequent occurrence as to render the
wheat cgop the most uncertain perhaps of
any that we attempt In this latitude. The
small farmer. il imbued with the Intensive
spirit, cannot afford to grow tel bushels OF
wheat to the acre. If be can avoid even
partially the obstacles mentioned, he can
do better than this. Is il possible for the
intensive farmers to make sixty bushels
t5,600 lbs Of wheat on one acre! If 50,
can IL be done after n manner to recon-
mend itself to the practical farmer for
adoption as practicel Both these ques-
lions we can answer affirmatively. There
IS only one way that wheat may be grown
with satisfaction by the small farmer in
this section, aud that way is to prepare the
soil by two good piowings, thoroughly
manure it, and drill the seed and cultivate
the crop with tho same care with which corn
IS cultivated. IL will pay the small farmer
70 adopt the plan. One acre cultivated
after the following plan will produce more
than four or five acres after the old plan of
broadcasting: In October, OF early in No
vemher, flush the land with a tSrn pillow,
then with a scooter lay of rows % to "a
inches apart and list closely on this furrOw.
Just before time for sowing apply broad
cast or sprinkle over the listed rows 500
pounds of compound of cotton seed meal,
bone meal and acid phosphate in the fol-
lowing proportions: 200 pounds bone meal,
100 pounds cotton seed meal and 200 pounds
acid phosphate. (The 500 pounds should
not cost the farmer over 81 50) On the
10th of November, or thereabouts, open
the lists with a scooter, and sow per acre
three pecks of choice seed wheat-Dallas or
blue stem-that has been soaked in blue
stone water and then well rolled in quick
lime. Cover with harrow or board.
Shortly after the wheat comes up run a
harrow or sweep through the middles. No
further cultivation will be needed, and i'll
fact the sweeping before Christmas can be
postponed until February, when the middles
should be we'll broken while the soil is moist,
and afterward in February and March
sweep the burrows, or harrow one furrow
to tho middle. Using land that is fairly
good, that will work say 20 bushels of corn
or 200 pounds of lint cotton per acre, a
crop of 90 bushels of wheat is not difficult
of attainment under this plan, and it will
ray small farmer to grow his flour when
ne can secure such results. If he got only
80 bushels he would be we'll paid for his
trouble Sweet potatoes, or peas, can fol-
low as a second crop in May or June, or the
land may be allowed to grow up in weeds to
recuperate for another fall sowing of
wheat SAMUEL {. A. COOK.

An Electric Clock.

A great deal Of interest has been
created in France by the novel form
and operation Of an electric clock, re-
Gently introduced, the popularity in
the construction Of which consists in
the presence Of two kinds Of batteries,
one q wet zinc-iron element and the
other dry xinc.iron element. The
former consists Of an iron bottle Ave
and one-half inches high by three and
one-half diameter, which forms one
electrode; the other electrode is zinc
rod passing through an India rubber
stopper into the center Of the bottle,
this being filled with caustic potash
and oxide Of mercury. There is no
diaphragm, and the zinc is gradually
consumed, while the oxide Of mercury
is reduced; the Q. m. I. is Is volts, and
tho internal resistance only Q Of All
ohm. These clocks receive an impulse
forty times q minute, and exhibit no
weakening Of the power either in the
dry or the wet cell. An easy calcula-
ton will show the interesting fact that
the total number Of electrical impulses
exceeds $1,000, 900 per annum-cer-
tainly most severe duty for any bat
