How They Caught Him.

New Haven police recently detected
a saloon keeper who was selling liquor
on Sunday in a curious way. An
officer assembled East Rock. having
irst secured a good spy-glass. He
took position where he could see the
saloon and watch it. Presently he
saw some men enter and he thereupon
gave signal by waving a handker-
chief to a squad OF officers stationed
ia a house near the saloon. They also
had a glass, and when the signal was
given descended upon the saloon. The
proprietor was arrested and fined $50
and costs the next day.

it for gapes and diarrhoea; for when chickens
are small they often droop and die. To a

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
A HEATED HAY NOW.

When the NOW is found to be heating
some recommend making deep holes near
together in the NOW by thrustinga sharp
ened pole from the top downward and
putting few handfuls Of salt into each
cavity The safest method, however,
is to remove the hay to some scaffold,
which will bring it to the air, and the
sooner it is done the better. If there is
not barn room to put it on scaffold
pitch it into the rack and stack it out of
doors a few days if the weather is dry.
If the stacs, is well made and the top is
covered with hay caps it will stand heavy
lain storms with but little injury. After
remaining in the stack few days 1t can
be returned to the NOW again when the
sun is shining, and will give no further
trouble -,StockmUn.

A complete fertilizer is one that con-
tains in proper proportions nitrogen,
phOsphoric acid and potash. When in
tended for special crops manufacturers
vary the proportions somewhat to cor
respond in some degree with what anal
ysis has shown the different plants re-
quire. Thus there is a great difference
in the amount of potash required by diff
ferent plants. AS stated by the Ken
lucky Experiment Station, an acre of
wheat yielding twenty bushels requires
about twenty-eight pounds of potash,
while an average crop of potatoes re
quires 100 pounds potash per acre, and
an acre of tobacco yielding $500 pounds
of leaves and stalks require over 200
pounds. Generally a worn out soil re-
quires all three of these elements to be
combined in a fertilizer in order that it
may be useful; hence it is far safer to
buy such than to presume upon any one
of them being sufficient. Owing to the
wide differences in soils no rule can be
given by which to tell what fertilizer is
the best for any particular crop, and this
question must be decided by actual
trial.
In regard to the manner of applying
fertilizers, it is generally best to SOW
broadcast or drill and work we'll into the
soil before planning. When a small
quantity is applied to each hill or row at
planting time it acts mainly as a stimu-
liant to produce an early and vigorous
growth, which is considered necessary
for the tobacco crop, but oftener renders
it more sensitive to drought Care
should be taken to mix the fertilizer with
the soil SO that it will not come in i'm
mediate contact with the seed or tender
plants.-JNeto York World

AUTUMN WEEDS.

Many an otherwise good cultivator,
says A. B. Allen, in the New York
Iribune, is very careless as to destruction
of autumn weeds, thinking his crops are
so well grown that letting them alone
can do no particular harm. But if we
consider that the heads are rapidly
ripenIng seeds by the million, to be
blown over the land in every direction,
to germinate the following spring, we
would undoubtedly be more careful in
not permitting them to stand. One need
not necessarily take time to root the
weeds out during this busy season; he
has only to resort to the much quicker
and lighter task of clipping the seed
heads from their stalks. This should be
done before or just as they begin to bios
som, for if cut in full flower many seeds
will form and ripcn from the nutriment
they derive from the cut stalks.
One man will easily pass over several
acres a day with sickle or scythe, cutting
close up to the blOssOm-heads on the
stalk, all OF which will rot well during
winter and act as beneficial mulch to the
soil and as fertilizer to the crops the fol
lowing spring and summer All annual
weeds may be thus treated, but the pc
rennial must be extirpated by pulling or
blowing out their roots. In doing this
care should be taken to secure even the
smallest tibres, as these enlarge rapidly,
some even during winter, and make
fiourishing plants not easily extirpated
the coming spring. Sheep may be bene-
ficially turned on various parts of the
land, especially among corn, when the
ears grow so high they cannot reach
them, and will be content by nibbling
the weeds so close to the ground as to
effectuaIly destroy them.

flower, by its leaves bending over the
flower part, performs the same duty,
which, however, the grower will often
aid by bending back and half-breaking
the leaf, which is for the same purpose.
The sea kale and CARTOONS are also use
less for the table without this process of
bleaching; but as neither are cultivated
to any extent in this country, they are Of
no moment to this inquiry.
This process Of bleaching renders the
plant more susceptible of injury-more
tender than when growing in its natural
state; hence the bleaching is done just
before the plant is to be used for the table
or market. In the hot summer months,
when growth is rapid, bleaching is very
quickly performed if the plant is deprived
Of light, whereas, toward fall. it takes
double the time. In the depth of winter,
with soil little above freezing, the pro-
cess is slower, yet takes all the winter,
sometimes, to thoroughly bleach At
this time Of the year, couple of weeks
will be sufficient; in the fall the same re-
suit will take a month. Once bleached,
it is best marketed or used, if possible,
as the danger of rust is considerable, by
that thoroughly beached. This is the
reason why gardeners do not earth up be-
yond sufficient to keep the stalks from
spreading, until two or three weeks be
fore wanted.
AS celery is now grown mostly in a few
places, and shipped all over the country,
every means is used to cheaper the cost
Of production, and the pillow and horse
does, to a considerable extent, what used
to be done by the spade and hand. Ten
to twenty cents dozen is now the COM
mon price of celery, where formerly it
was twenty to forty cents. -Prairie FAR

PROTECTION FOR YOUNG PLANTS.

A very cheap and effective protector for
young plants may be made of the collar
for pipe tiles, which can be bought at
nearly all factories Of drain tiles. The
collars are in sections, about the same in
length as ordinary pipe tile, with grooves
partly separating the individual collars.
When broken apart the collars are each
about four inches long and two or three
inches in diameter. One of these is set
around each plant and pressed slightly
into the ground, SO as to exclude cold
winds, cutworms, bugs and other enc
mics. The collars are practically indie
stluctible, and with reasonable care
supply will last for years. Where they
cannot be obtained a very good substitute
is made by melting the bottoms from the
tin can in which vegetables and fruit are
sold, and using the can in the manner as

FALL PIGS.

Many find it profitable to let the sows
have two litter of pigs, one in the spring,
reasonably early, so that by pushing along
they can be ready for market early in the
fall, and those narrowed in the fall can be
kept growing during the winter and fat
tened after clover gets high enough to
furnish good feed, says a writer in the
Republic. After the weather gets cool
in the fall, and after settled weather be-
gins in the spring, and when grass has
made good start to grow are the best
times for fattening hogs, and so far as
possible the breeding should be timed so
that the soWs will farrow in the right
season. Pigs in the fall should come
early enough to give them time to make
good start to grow before cold, freez-
ing weather sets in. Your pigs are easily
stunted, and little exposure to severe
cold will often stop their growing. In
order to be profitable hogs must make
good growth from birth to maturity.
At the start one of the most important
items with fall pigs is to provide them
with dry, warm, comfortable shelter.
To attempt to keep them warm by feed
ing corn will increase the cost so as to
leave little if any margin of profit. With
stock Of all kinds animal heat can be
maintained much more economically by
providing shelter than by feeding corn.
Some corn will be necessary, unless the
shelter provided is considerably above
the average. Corn is one of the very
best materials that can be used to good
advantage all winter. At the same time
/ it should not be depended upon entirely.
The pigs will make a better growth at
a less cost and keep in better health if
good v?ricty of food is furnished. Wheat
bran, ground oats, and barley will add
to the value Of the ration and are much
better for the development Of bone, and
muscle than corn, and this is often quite
an item. 1t is possible to feed too much
corn, keeping even the growing pigs SO
fat they Will not make as good Il growth
as they should. The development of
bone and muscle is fully as important as
fat. Glover hay should be relished by
the growing pigs as well by the breeding
stock. ArtichOkes and small, unmarked
able potatoes will add to the variety.
A sufficient quantity should be sup
piled to keep them in a good, thrifty con-
dition. No reliable rules as to quantity
can be given. The best plan is to be
guided by the condition of the hogs
After cool weather sets in corn car be
made the principal food, using the other
materials to make up good variety.
Let them run out whenever the cOndi-
ton of the weather will admit, but they
should have access to shelter all the time
Growing pigs need plenty of opportuni-
ty to exercise, and will thrive better if
confined in close pen. Keep their
quarters clean, use plenty of bedding,
and change it every few days to prevent
it becoming foul Filth breeds disease,
and it is very important with hogs, as
with other stock, to keep them in go~'
health.
