Notes ON the Elementary Principles o
Lawn Planting.

Notes on the Elementary Principles of
Lawn Planting.
The more natural and simple lawn,
large or small, the more attractive to
refined taste. The grading should not
be regular and formal, unless the area
is very contracted. An undulating
! surface pleases the eye, recalling the
natural scenery of fields and woods.
In addition, it imparts an air of greater
! extent to the Enclosure than if the sur
face be dead level, Or uniform even
slope. Permit portion of the lawn
to remain open; nothing can be pref
tier than an eXpanse of rich-green,
close-shaven turf. The grouping sys-
tenn is always more pleasing than the
haphazzard manner of dotting trees
and shrubs all over the place Around
the outer boundary, and especially
fronting north, is generally q good
position for forming belts of mixed
trees, but should these obstruct
cherished view, an opening may
be left for a glimpse of the
desired object. These belts Or
clumps should present an easy-fowing
outline. similar to many outer edges of
our woods, and all pretense of formal
ity in arrangement must be scrupu-
lousy avoided. Even the few trees
placed for shade in reasonable distance
of the dwelling may be so disposed as
to assume a natural aspect. A little
group of two or three specimens will
frequently break up the monotony of
an unartistic disposition of the trees.
Have few walks, the fewer the better;
they are expensive to construct prop
erly, are not handsome at best, and
require constant attention to keep in
condition.
Above all, avoid the vases ana
statues that some people place over
their grounds. The idea of mixing
such artificial appliances with purely
natural objects like beautiful trees
and shrubs must be repugnant to any
person of discernment in home sur
roundings. When this mania for
pottery of low degree shall die out,
and the unadorned, attractive garden
spots, as of old, regain their popular
ity, great point will have been
reached in American gardening; not
until then will our work prove credit
able. The face of the lawn is of para
mount Importance. No matter how
handsome our trees and walks, neglect
of the turf spoils the general effect.
To reach perfection, and emulate the
proverbial green turf OF England and
Ireland, it is necessary for us to con-
stantly apply topdressing of some rich
fertilizer that will stimulate growth,
and replace in manner the constant
drain upon its vitality caused by long
continued course of cutting. Frequent
use of lawn-mower encourages growth
for greater or less period, but a re-
action will take place should the soil
be neglected. We can not, if we would,
remove every particle of cut grass from
the lawn, and so there is always a small
portion remaining which acts as pro-
lection to the roots. 1t is slovenly
practice to permit all the clippings to
Law on the surface, and it proves in
furious to the turf, so that the work of
the improved lawn-rake is both useful
and ornamental.-N Y. Tribune

HOME AND FARM.

Corn should be ground in the ear;
it is better than to shell it and feed
the COW separately.-N. Y. Independ.
emit.
Beans or potatoes are the best
crops for an orchard. Among sowed
crops, peas and buckwheat are best.
Fertilize the orchard well if you seed
it down.-Farm Journal.
1t is well to read and study over
what professors and chemists say about
stock food. But you had better have a
little practical sense yourself and feed
prudently what you can raise on the
farm.-Iowa State Register.
Scotch Pudaing:, Two cupfuls of
sugar, one cupful of sour cream, three
cupfuls of flour, three eggs, one cupful
of seeded raisins, one teaspoonful of
soda. Bake in a loaf.-Good House
keeping.
"A hawk usually alights before at :
tempting to catch a chick in order to
make observation. Fasten steel trap
ON a tall pole, and the chances are that
the hawk will alight thereon and be
caught
Stock should not, except in case OF
a good growth of blue grass, be turned
on to the new grass too early in spring.
They should be kept on a part ration
of grain for some time after the graz
ing begins. Some good hay is in place
at all times.-Orange Judd Farmer.
Fruit growers should learn the
popular names of insects, study their
habits and know how to cope with
them. Among the best insecticides are
Paris green, London purple, hellebore,
kerosene, tobacco, coal tar, carbonic
acid.
Every farmer should experiment
for himself. Because farmer Brown
raises 125 bushels of shelled corn per
acre, it is not wise for farmer Green
to assume that he can do the same by
the same methods. Different soils,
seed, climate, and manure are to be
considered.-RuralN New Yorker.
-Parsnip Stew: Three slices of salt
pork boiled one hour and q half;
scrape five large parsnips, cut in
quarters lengthwise, add to the pork,
and let boil one-half hour. then add a
few potatoes, and let all boil together
until the potatoes are soft. The fluid
in the kettle should be about a cupful
when ready to take off.
"A boy plowed up jar containing
$44 dollars in gold and silver coin near

this boy let the point run down a little

An Illinois fruit-grower is said to
have forwarded the apple production
of young orchard very much by
planting only l6 feet apart, requiring
four times the usual number of
trees. The redundant ones are girdled
when large enough to bear; this both
checks their growth and hastens fruit
fulness, and they give a good return
of extra fine specimens before it be-
comes necessary to remove them out
of the way of the large permanent
trees, then only beginning their yield.

AMONG AGRlcuLTuRlsTs.

AN ardent pig fancier contends that the
filslng OF pork, if properly conducted upon
Inc farm, will lift the mortgage or raise the
nank account more rapidly than any other
farm stock
iEERE will be no danger of a variety of
potatoes running OUT if the best tubers
are saved for seed every year. Every one
VINO plants potatoes can improve the variety
by carefully selecting the seed and giving g
good cultivation.
FRESH stable manure contains in every
ton about 1870 pounds of organic matter
and water. The remaining SO pounds are
plant food-virtually potash, nitrogen and
phospnorlc acid. These are just what you
get in chemical fertilizers
Use onion sets rather than the seed in THU
climate for garden supply. A quart of sets
should produce about a bushel of onions
The smaller sets are preferable to these of
larger size. They can go in the ground just
as soon as the frost leaves.
WHAT is commonly called farm-yard
manure is excellent for general purpos es !:
especially is it beneficial in the early stages
OF cultlvating the treeiess prairie, where
this manure from it's nature counteracts the
excessive alkaline properties of that soil
IT is estimated that every bushel of hard
wood ashes is worth at least TWENTY-FIVE
cents and they therefore partially rer1uner-
ate for the cost of the wood The ashes
should be stored in dry place and covered,
as they draw moisture from the atmosphere.
AN exchange condemns the practice Of
taking leaves and leaf-mold for the ma
nure pile from forests designed for perma-
nent woodlots. The lateral roots of trees, it
says, are near the surface, and the removal
of their natural mulch and nutriment ex-
poses them to the vicissitudes of the
weather and decay ensues.
EVEN in the garden and small fruits it is
easily possible to undertake to Go too much,
and, as with other farm work, it is better
to undertake only what can be done thor
oughly, rather than to spread out too much
and make more or less of failure all
around. Especially in these two places is
thorough work demanded.

No Chemicals.

In THESE DAYS when food adulteration is
so common, it IS a comfort to find an article
for the table that is thoroughly reliable.
Walter Baker & Co.'S breakfast cocoa is
eminent IN this limited class No chemicals
are used In it's manufacture and it is abso-
lutely pure. 1t forms moreover a delicious
and healthful drink, as refreshing, and more
nutritious, than tea or coffee, and free from
the injurious effects that those beverages
sometimes produce. And 1t is very cheap
withal. The house of Walter Baker & Co.
has maintained for more ttan 100 years a
great and honored repute by the excellence
aud purity of its manufactures.

THE DEADLY OVERCOAT.
A Justification of the Sensible Man Whs
Don't Wear One.

a Justification OF the SenSfDle MAN VINO
Don't Wear One.
We protest against the indiscrimi-
nate use of the thick and heavy over
coat We would rather see men in
fairly robust condition, especially if
young, clad warmly next the skin, and
wearing either a light top coat or none
at all. There can be no doubt that the
habitual use of great coats is indirectly
accountable for the chills which they
are intended to prevent. Were the
overcoat worn continuously it might
attain its object. Its intermittent use,
even when ample underclothing is
worn, affords no solid guarantee safety.
but rather the reverse.
The man of sedentary habits has es-
pecial need to remember this. He
energies daily from a warm breakfast
room clothed in his ordinary winter
garments. with probably wooden under
wear. and over all the heavy ulster or
top coat. After walk he finds that
the sense of warmth he began with is
more than maintained. He arrives at
his Office or place of business. and off
goes the overcoat, though the air of
the newly-opened room is as cold as
that without. and draughty in addi-
ton. During the day perhaps he
travels to and from adjacent business
houses wearing only his house cloth
ing. The ovcrcoat is Laid aside till
closing time reminds him of the jour-
new home. The frequent result is that
somehow, between the hours of his de-
parture and return, he is chilled. No
doubt, he would run as great a risk If,
lightly clad, he were to face the rigor
of a winter day. In this case, how
ever, exercise and habit might do
much to develop the power of endur-
ance, and there would, at all events,
be less danger of sudden cold acting
upon a freely-persriring surface.
Wooden underclothing represents a
state of healthy comfort intermediate
bet~ cen these extremes, and more re-
sistant to chill than either.-Lancet.
