LORILLARD TOMATOES IN FORCING HOUSE.
Pinching off a portion of the side
branches and stopping others Just beyond
where the fruit is formed l,;lstens the
ripening. The main point, however, to
keep in mind where early fruit is desired,
is the fact that the tomato plant requires
at all times certain high temperature to
ripen it's fruit There are always some
one or more varieties said to be earlier
than others, but as high authority as
Peter Henderson, affirms in his Garden
ing for Profit THE extreme point of
earliness in tomatoes was reached years
ago, and now all further improvements
must be in point of size, smoothness and
soGdity"
Numbered with new varieties, for
which extra claims are made, is the
Lorillard. This tomato, according to
report of the committee of the Society of
American Florists, possesses extra good
forcing qualities, uniformity of ripening
over the entire surface, fine flavor, very
solid and beautiful, smooth appearance
In thecut here given, for which thanks
are due to Orchard and Garden, is shown
a crop of Lorillard tomatoes in forcing
house, as arranged for exhibition at Ran
cocas. N. j. The Lorillard is the result
of cross between the Acme and Perfec-
ton. The originator. Mr.. S. G. Gardner,
of New Jersey, has found it not only
superior for forcing, but equally desir-
able for outdoor culture. Mr. Gardner,
according to Orchard and Garden, ad-
heres to the European style of cult
waiting under glass, using ten inch pots
and tubes, placed on benches, and allow
ing sixteen inches to plant. Each
plant is trimmed to one stem The
lateral shoots are cut off as soon as large
enough. The stems are supported by
string or wire from the benches to the
roof
The dwarf Champion is indorsed as a
soluble novelty by Wick; and Henderson

that have been well tested are Acme,

are indispensable for well developed
fruit. and superf1uous branch is a need
less drain upon the resources of a tree.
A good pruning knife and au iron mai
let and thin bladed chisel are excellent
tools for pruning. When trees are
properly attended to no large branches
Should need removal, but when that Is
the case a good saw is required.
The Florida agriculturist., 1889-05-08

P. NJ. Augur, Connecticut's State Po-
mologist, sums up the points of good
pruning as follows, in Popular Garden
ing: To have an ideal tree, begin at the
outset to prune annually at least. A
young tree ought to have only three or
four leading branches; prune all others
out, SO as to keep a very open tree dur
ing the early years.
Varieties vary as to needed pruning,
thus the R. |. Greening needs different
plan from the Baldwin or the Ben Davis.
The Northern Spy needs spreading, the
Greening needs throwing up, and all
need keeping in evenly balanced heads.
With pears, those varieties like the
Buffun and Sheldon need spreading,
and the Seckel always much thinning
out. but neither the apple nor the pear
usually need shortening in unless one

The Lima Bush Bean.

Peter B. Mead says of the bush lima
that it grows exactly like the ordinary
bush bean, and that it will find place
in thousands of gardens where the old
climbing bean is unknown, as few will
go to the expense and trouble of provid-
ing and sticking poles The beans are
the size Of the sieva or small lima. The
bushes grow IL inches high and produce
q continuous crop from time of first
bearing until frost. . / 53U.o 20

The Berry Patch.

One annual pruning is the usual rule
for blackberries. and this is generally
done in the spring Comparatively little
pruning is necessary with the raspberry,
except to go over the patch after fruiting
and cut out close to the ground all of the
old canes Some defer this operation
until the following spring The bearing
canes ought to be pruned in the spring
by herding back the leading shoots and
shortening the lateral ones
The Florida agriculturist., 1889-05-08

We hear q great deal about summer
pruning or pinching the canes, but seldom
see it in practice. If the new canes Of
the blackberry and raspberry are pinched
when they attain sufficient height dur
ing the growing season and the laterals
also pinched back, they will become
very erect and stocky and will require
little, if any pruning in the following
spring
When this has not been done Orchard
and Garden advises cutting back fully
one-third and reducing the laterals to
about twelve or eighteen inches While
tnis will somewhat retard their season
of ripening it will greatly increase the
quantity of the yield and the size of the
fruit Finish the operation by tying the
canes snugly to the stake, or whatever
other support may be provided, and
spread a generous shovelful of well
rotted manure or compost around each
hill of raspberries; the black berries, if
in good soil will not need any; in their
case too great fertility means rank,
luxuriant growth Of wood that will not

weather. and SO will winterkill
Few people realize this. and it often
happens that variety is uniustly con
demned for lack of hardness when the
fault really lies in its improper treat
ment In the cut-taken from Orchard
and Garden-we show the appearance in
early spring of two blackberry plants,
the young canes of which were pinched
back last summer, and also of one as it
should appear after it's final pruning in
spring
Every spring place good coating of
stable manure around the currant bushes,
for they are gross feeders and will well
repay liberal nourishment. Cut out old,
useless wood, let light and air freely into
the center of the bush, and also cut back
the last years growth. causing the lower
buds to start well.

NOT A MODEL MOTHER.

Kate Carpenters Four Small Children
VIII Probably DO Better Without Her.
Kate Carpenter, a snappy little woman
of thirty-two years, with no amount Of
good looks to brag Of was before Justice
Stilsing this morning. She was described
by the policeman who arrested her as
''holy terror. Her husband alleged that
she gets drunk all the time, and last
night when he demonstrated with her she
threw lighted lamp at him.
The policeman says he found her very
drunk, sleeping on stoop, and that the
neighbors complain of her as general
nuisance. She was remanded by the JUS
tice. Soon afterward her husband came
and begged the Justice to let her go, say
ing that they had four small children at
home who needed mothers care.
Justice Stilsing had the woman brought
before him and told her of her husbands
magnanimity,, thinking she would be
touched thereby and moved to repent
ance. Instead, however, she began to
abuse the poor man numerically, and
her voice could be heard reviling him tor
getting her locked up all the way down
the court room steps.

CENsURING THE CENTRAL
The Want of Gates at Jersey Avenue
Caused Mortimer's Death.

George Mortimer, of No. 611S Mercer
street, while crossing the Central Rail
road tracks at Jersey avenue, was run
over and killed October 10 by train. He
was sixty-eight years old and man OF
sober habits. The inquest was held by
Coroner Brackner last night at the Court
House and considerable testimony taken.
William Applegatc, of Elizabeth, an
engineer employed by the Central Rail-
asserted that he did not know that man
had been killed until told Of it.
Robert Smith, of No. 30S Communipaw
avenue, conductor of the train, testified
that he did not know that man was
killed till he got signal at Jersey av-
enue to stop. When he saw Mortimer he
was dying; Peter Shaeffer, brakeman,
told him that he was taken from under
his train. Peter Schaeffer testified that
just as the train started at the Jersey av-
enue crossing he heard man holler
"ouchi" and he saw a man lying across
the track, but he did not know how he
got there; when picked up he was not
able to speak, He had q basket which
contained eels with him.
Flagman William Gordon, of No. 332
Johnston avenue, said he was tagging
when Mortimer came across the track
while two trains were passing; ne let the
Newark train pass and then went to the
main track and saw Mortimer get up on
the cars, and that was the last he saw of
him until the train passed. He heard him
shout The cars were standing still when
he saw Mortimer climb on the freight
car. The street is q public thoroughfare

Pellet Is a Bad PHI.

Lucie n Pellet. a bullet-headed, sullen
10 ooking individual of twenty-four years,
was charged before Justice Stilsing this
morning with assault and battery upon
two persons and malicious mischief. It
appears from the testimony that Pellet is
a boarder in Dogalo's hotel at No: II
Grand street. Last evening he came into
the bar room and invited all hands up to
drink.
After seeing that his invitation was ac-
cepted he went upstairs and began to
quarrel with the landlord. He struck
Mr., Dogalo in the face and bombarded
him with eggs and dinner plates. When
Mr.. Dogaloss sister attempted to defend
her brother, Pellet threw a knife at her
which struck her in the face. He had
nothing to say and was committed for
trial on all the charges.

FATHER GABRlEL'S BURIAL.
Solemn Ceremonies at st. Michael's Mon
astory.

Solemn Ceremonies at st. Michael's Mon
astery.
The remains of the Rev. Father Ga,
briel, c. p. were placed in the vault of
st. Michael's Monastery, West Hoboken,
yesterday morning. The funeral services
were austere and impressive.
On a bare pine board, clothed in the
coarse black habit of his order, and with
his head resting upon two bricks, lay the
body of the dead priest. His feet were
unsandalled and ashes were sprinkled
over his face. A crucifix was clasped in
his lifeless hands, his rosary was at his
side, and small purple stole around his
neck denoted his priestly dignity.
The so emn high mass of requiem was
sung by the Rev. Father Birk. c. p. The
Rev. Fathers Lawrence and Joseph led
the chanters. The melancholy strains of
''Dies Irae" walled through the great
church, and after the solemn absolution
had been pronounced, four brothers
raised the body on their shoulders and
bore it to the basement where the
vault is.
Here the benediction was sung, and the
body was placed in rough board coffin
and laid to rest in the crypt. The en-
closure was then walled up and the words
Gabriel C. p" were scratched in the
cement.
Father Gabriel was young man, and
his death at such an early age was caused
by his earnest work on the mission. He
was a classmate of the Rev. Father
Robert C. p, the great pulpit orator. He
died at St. Joseph's Retreat. Baltimore
The rules of the Passionist Order provide
for the burial of the members under one
of their cellars.
Though the order has seven houses in
the United States, but two of them, St.
Paul's, Pittsburg, and ST. Michael's, West
Hoboken, are provided with vaults; so
when a priest dies his body is brought to
the nearer of the two houses for inter-
ment.
There are six Passionists buried in the
vault of the West Hoboken Monastery.
The Revs. Father Dominick, Basil and the
two Gabriels, Brother Stephen and the
sanity Father Albino
The body of the latter occupies the
crypt next to Father Gabriels.
Among the clergymen in the sanctuary
were the Rev. Fathers Thomas Stefenine,
p. G., and Sebastian. C. p, consultors to
the provincial of the province, the Rev.
Father Williams, C. p, rector of the
Monastery, and Fathers Lawrence, JOS
eph, Matthias. and John Philip OF the or
