FARM AXD GARDEN NOTES.

Currants and gooseberries need one
good trimming out annually, cutting out
old wood and thinning the new.
Keep your fence boards and posts un-
der shelter until you are ready to use
them. Then draw them out and use
them at once.
A "bustle" over a chickens eye may
lead to roup. 4 little camphorated oil,
rubbed on the swelling will tend to re-
duce it and prevent the dread disease.
As rule the smaller seeds are en-
dowed with shorter vitality than the
large ones, and it is not safe to keep
them any longer than necessary. In these
DAYS of wholesale seed farming there is
no reason why farmers should keep seeds
over more than one winter.
Be sure to take from the udder every
drop of milk that the COW gives. Nature
responds to demand. If you do not de-
mand all the milk she will shrink the
mess accordingly. She will not work
for nothing. Call on her for every drop
and she will keep up the flow. She is
generous to our needs when nationally
manifested but quick to take advantage
of our neglect. Milk clean.
It has been learned that potatoes re-
quire due proportion Of nitrogenous
and mineral food, as has long been held
] by good farmers. and that mineral man
ures alone produce little result. The
/ liberal use of barn-yard manure seems to
be justified by the large yield, which is
thought to offset the disadvantage OF
greater liability of disease. Continuous
growth of potatoes in the same land APP
pears to render the crop less liable to dis
ease instead of more so.
While the artificial method of chicken
growing, matching in incubators and rear
ing with artificial mothers, is necessary
to growing broilers for market, 1t will
not supercede the old-fashioned method
for growing breeding stock. NAe l"ti'
fetal chickens are less able to look =
for themselves, and are generally sInsASi
and less vigorous than the same breeui
grown naturally. Some Of the instinct;
of self-defence are lost, or at least ar,
blunted, by dependence on methods II
which they are not necessary.
The conditions for growing the bes
sorghum are different from those TO
grain crops. Mineral and nitrogeneou
manures should not be used, except tina

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
ASHES AS A FERTILIZER.

Ashes are too much wasted by many
farmers who do not seem to appreciate
their importance as manure. They are
among the best fertilizers that can be APP
piled either directly to the land or mixed
with the compost. They are beneficial
to all crops, and this has been found to
apply even to coal ashes, which, in them
selves, have but little manurial value {;
but the reason that even these are so
useful is that they absorb and retain
moisture. Independent of the postash
that wood ashes retain and which makes
it such a valuable manure, an application
of it renders the ground porous and
keeps it cool and moist. Farmers cannot
be too careful to save it and spread it
over their lands. Upon sandy lands we
consider it equally as valuable, pound
for pound, as guano.
About one hundred bushels of wood
ashes per acre is a fair proportion to ap-
ply on light soil. - Connecticut Farmer.

THIN PLANTING EoR ENsmAeE.

Corn grown for fodder, either as en-
silage or dried for winter use, should
always be planted or drilled thinly
enough to permit the formation of some
ears. What distance apart this will be
must depend largely on condition of the
soil, that very rich tending to produce
some ears when drilled quite closely in
rows far enough apart TO run cultivstor
through while the plants are small. 1t
is not necessary nor advisable that the
ears be large for fodder, as they will be
harder to cure if dried, and more diff
cult to cut up with the ensilage cutter.
Cattle eat this richer food much more
thoroughly than they do corn fodder
grown so closely as not to form ears
The grains of corn also in this ensilage
are perfectly digested, and do not come
out while on the manure heap, as they
DO when corn is fed dry. An addition Of
bran, wheat mlddlings or barley sprouts
improves the ration for cows giving milk,
but is less necessary than with the
poorer, thickly grown corn fodder

REQUISITES For PEACHES.

Our best cultivators agree very nearly
as to methods of treating peach
orchard; are equally alive to danger of
yellows, and no nearer than ever to Sc
curing regular annual crop. Most of
them favor light, loose soil for this fruit,
and if not naturally fertile, then apply
stimulants. A rich compost will prove
useful, but as a rule mineral fertilizers
are preferred in most soils. Potash IN
some form is decidedly the best, most
economical and certain Of all plant-foods
for the peach. In many instances trees
that showed incipient indications of the
disease were brought back to vigorous
health by applying this alkai to the soil.
Although highly advantageous to all
kinds of fruit, potash is even more valu-
able in peach-culture than in any other.
Thorough cultivation in a young orchard
is indispensable to success; formation Of
rootlets in the peach requires very
loose, open soil, 50 the frequent use Of
cultivator always makes itself visible in
accelerated growth and richer foliage.
Many orchardists believe that Il free
rrowth will in a measure ward Off dis
ease; that fungal disorders more fre-
quently affect slow-growing trees than
those in vigorous health. Frequent cul-
tivation may be omitted when the
orchard reaches bearing age, on the prin'
ciple that fruit is more plentiful when
growth is slightly checked, but so long
as crops are gathered some equivalent
ought to be returned TO the soil.
think we may all agree that young tre'
growing energetically needs an annua
heading back of the leading shoots a
least; and whenever it becomes to-
bushy, condition such treatment
liable to induce, the superhuous branche
must be thinned out. Another requisit
is thinning the fruit; large, finely colore
specimens are so much in demand an'
command such a good price that tn
comparatively little expense of thinnin
is more than oyerbalanced by the re
ceipts. Each spring, if not twice in tn

COcoanut Day in India.

"Cocoanut day" is celebrated in most
parts of India during the full moon in
August. On that day numbers of nuts
are thrown into the sea as an Offering to
the Hindoo god. Occasionally one
meets with deformed nuts, consisting Of
the husks with small nuts having no ker-
mel inside. The natives attribute this
blighting to the tree-frog, which, by
smelling the flower, can prevent the fruit
from coming to maturity.-Poputdr

THE TRUE MEDICINE FOR
SPRING.
What Different Doctors Consider the Best
Spring Medicine.

"hat different DOCTORS Consider the Best
Spring Med cine.
The rapid manner of living which has
become characteristic of our American
people has brought about nerve exhaustion,
and spring medicine means an entirely
different thing to the advanced practitioner
of the present time than it did to the doctor
of fifty years ago, whose main dependence
was calomel and blood-letting. In view of
this fact the following interviews with
prominent physicians make interesting and
valuable reading
DIR. A. W. K. Newton, 52S fremont
street. Boston, is a strong believer in the
unequaled value of Paine's Celery Com
pound. His first acquaintance with this
remedy dates from its use by himself in a
case of blood poisoning brought on by "a sur
gical operation. lie found that it produced
results obtanable from no other medicine
and since then has prescribed it freely, es-
pecially in the spring. The sallow or PIN
pied skin, headache, sour stomach, languor
and tired feeling back ache, and loss OF APP
petite, which are common at this season
of the year, are promptly and permanently
cured by the use of this medicine. II
strengthens the nerves, thus regulating the
circulation of the blood, and in a short
time after its use is commenced, the pure
blood joyously pulsates through the veins,
carrying new life and vitality to every part.
The eminent DR.. J. w. Small CORE
spending secretary of the New York County
Medical association, 122 Park avenue. New
York city, is another of the many doctors
who endorse Panc's Celery Compound.
Thousands of physicians find that this rem
cdy Is just what is needed at this season of
the year Dr. Small says that he has found
it to give particularly good results in ncr-
vous dependency, neuralgia, general debil-
ity, sleeplessness, and other nervous dis
orders. When this medicine is used, the
cheeks once more become rosy, the step
grows brisk, the eyes regain their accus-
TONED brightness, the muscles become firm,
melancholy and low spirits are replaced by
happiness and buoyancy, while the memory
is stronger and the mind more vigorous and
capable of directing most momentous affairs
of business.
Space does not permit printing other
opinions that we gave gathered from those
who have used Pane's Celery Compound, or
prescribed it to their patients, but enough
has been said to show the superiority of this
scientific medicine. 1t was the providen-
tial discovery of the well known Professor
Phelps of Dartmouth college, and has done
more than all other medicines combined in
bringing health and happiness TO those who
have hitherto been bowed down with sick
ness and suffering
