On next Friday evening, Dec. 70, the
stage of the Crawford Grand will be oc
cupied by one of the grandest spectacular
productions this season of around the
World" under the direction of the
Kiralfy Bros, who are acknowledged by
the press throughout the country to be the
kings of spectacular productions. This pro-
duction is said to far surpass anything
the kiralfy Bros. have done for great
many years and will surely be one of the
theatrical events of the season.
Mr.. Kiralfy desires to inform the public
that they carry two sets of scenery, one
large and the other a small set. This
enables him to meet the requirements of
any stage in the country, and the same
amount of scenery, costumes, armors,
mechanical effects will be used here as was
in the production at Niblos garden and
the Haymarket theatre Chicago a few
weeks ago
The sinking of the steamship, the Hen
rietta, and the Union Pacific railroad train
is said to be one of the most realistic
pieces of work ever put on any stage.
The live trick elephant "Mazouk" is
also one of the features of this production.

gard the mounds as built for their own
special protection and benefit, and the
young trees were girdled and the in-
tended orchard destroyed. Compact,
smoothly-beaten mounds would have
saved the trees.
The same treatment may be applied
to nursery trees received from dis
tauce and heeled-in for spring setting.
AS the work is often done, the heeling-
in places the trees in great
danger, and we have sonnet times
seen them girdled by the dozen and
upwards, by not filing in the
earth compactly in all the crevices, and
in not encircling the place which re-
ceived them with smooth sloping earth,
up which the mice refuse to ascend.
Fig . represents such trees properly
taken care of and free from the danger
of mice; the mound of earth which sur
rounds the trees should be smooth and
compact on all sides.
Young orchards several years old and
firmly rooted and stiffened are some
times in danger of being girdled by mice
if standing near grass boundaries, or if
grass or weeds have been allowed par
ti.l possession. A neighbor has set out
u thousand pear trees, and they had
already begun vigorous growth. A
three-inch snow in March enabled the
mice to girdle the whole of them, which
he assured us he ould have prevented
by earth mounds. He saved them all,
however, by bridging the girdled por-
tions with connecting twigs.

HORTICULTURAL HINTS,


DON'T like fruit culture, some may
say, because it is too ''puttering," as
one writer puts it. Look here, friend,
some of the brainiest men in the world
find that there is enough dignity in the
business to engage their attention.
CAN boiling water be used as a rem
edy for the currant worm? asks corre-
spondent. We have seen it stated that
jarring the bushes, thus dislodging the
worms, and pouring hot water on them
on the ground is u good remedy. We
again recommend white hellebore.
n has not been long since some
OF our now most common fruits were
regarded as luxury. The demand for
them now is as for a necessity. This
is hopeful sign. 1t indicates some
thing of prosperity for the fruit-grower
and good deal better health for the
consumer.
EVERY farmer who is the father of
children should consider it u neighborly
act TO grow fruit for these children, for
you may be sure, that If the father does
not do that, and his neighbor grows
fruit the children will satisfy their
cravings at the expense of their neigh
bor.

rhis Is Good Advice for Any Season, But
Should lie Especially Needed Now.
The prospective shortage of feed rem
ders 1t extremely desirable that no
product of the field he this fall allowed
to go to waste. In some sections of the
farther West where corn and corn-fod
der have Of late years been so plentiful
as Co engender the most extravagant
systems of management there will
doubtless be required the exercise OF
the highest wisdom and economy to
enable the stock-grower to carry his an
imals properly through the winter
months The advisability of construct
ing silos for the better preservation of
all the nutritive matter of the drouth-
stricken corn Is being seriously consid-
cred in some sections where an appeal
to such methods has heretofore not been
deemed within the range of possible
necessity; and while there will perhaps
be much difference of opinion as to the
real value of some of these more mod
ern innovations in Western farm man
agement, there can be no doubt that tho
stern school of adversely through which
many farmers are now passing is bound
to enforce some lessons Of economy in
relation to the outstanding of all food
products which would be brought home
in no other way.
1t may almost be said of our West
ern forage crops we have each year
either a feast or famine. When the
fields yield up their riches with
prodigality scarcely known to any other
land, and granaries groan beneath their
overflowing loads, there is enough nu-
tritive substance lost through sheer
Indifference TO tide us through these
oft-recurring seasons of partial or total
failure. But people are not apt to profit
by such experiences. Now that the
shoe has begun to pinch severely many
bewail the lack of foresight which led
them to rely too implicitly upon what
Dame Nature might have in store for
1890, but the extremes of climate to
which we are at all times subject
should by this time be we'll enough un-
derstood to induce more conservative
practices. Those who have not studied
how to save when they were blessed
with an embarrassment of grain and
feed are not in very good position to
manage most judiciously in times of
need. 1t is to be hoped, however, that
heavy rains may yet result in so gen.
erous a growth of autumn vegetation
as to provide in every locality an abun-
dance of that which for want of bet
ter term we call ''roughness." This
secured, the conceded shortage of corn
and oats will not entail that degree OF
suffering and loss which must inevit-
ably follow, in some localities, if there
is a continuance of dry weather.

purposes already mentioned. If the
trees were small or like whips, these
mounds, If beaten smooth and compact
ly, would render useful assistance,
which would be still better il solid
round piece of turf capped the mound,
as represented in Fig. 1. Their height
should be about ten inches, and they
could be leveled down in spring.
But the mounds may be carelessly or
imperfectly made, and do more harm
than good. An acquaintance set out a
large, young orch ard. There being
some grass in the field, he attempted
to save the trees from the mice by
means of earth mounds about the base
of the stems. The earth was thrown
around them with the spade in sods
and chunks, between WHICH there were
crevices large enough for the mice to
enter, or, if not large enough they
gnawed their way through the pieces of
turf. These animals appeared to re-

ENEMIES OF THE POTATO.
They Are Many and One of the Worst Il
Man Himself

haH
One could almost say that man is one
of the worst enemies of the potato il
we may Judge from the manner in which
he sometimes neglects one of his best
of vegetable friends. While it requires
warm, rich soil, he gives it u water
soaked clay bed, aud when the feeble
plants come to the surface no encour-
agemenJ is given them to struggle
against the weeds that threaten to
choke cut the last spark of life.
Many insects prey upon the narcotic
herbage of the potato, the most de-
structive of which is the Colorado beetle.
But with this we'll under subjec tion by
a fully understood plan of applying
London purple or Paris green, there re-
mains now only to develop the methods
of overcoming the blights and rots, tho
worst of which is the so-called wet rot.
This is due to the growth of low form
of vegetation closely related to the mil
dew of the grape. 1t first appears on
the leaves as frosty patches, and from
there it grows down the stems, and
finally its slender threads reach the
tubers, causing them to rot.
From the fact that the leaves are first
attacked, and the rot works down the
stems to the potatoes. it is evident that
when the leaves and stems are dying
preu.aturely the tubers should be dug
nj once. Let the potatoes dry thorough
ly in the field after digging, and store
only the sound ones in a dry place with
good circulat tion of air. Avoid damp,
poorly ventilated room. The vines and
all decayed tubers left in the field should
be burned.
AS preventive measures at planting
time it may be suggested that u second
crop should not be grown where the pre-
vious crop failed from the rot. The seed
should be free from the trouble, and
therefore only sound potatoes are suita,
BILE for planting. Early varieties,
planted early, are most apt to escape,
for the rot does not get started usually
until midsummer. Experience has dem
onstrated that it is best to hill the po-
tatoes somewhat at the last plowing, as
many germs of the disease fall from the
leaves and are washed down to the tu-
bers with the rains.-American Agri-
culturist

The danger may be greatly obviated by
following the plan herewith illustrated.
1t consists simply in setting stout pos. {.
from two to four feet from tho entrance
to the bridge, on 5he upstream side.
All driftwood and flotsam, instead Of
floating down against the walls OF the
bridge, lodge against the post in mid
stream. Even should the space be-
tween the post and abutments on both
sides be filled with rubbish the mouth
of tho bridge will remain unobstructed,
and the water will flow through, under
and over the obstruction with perfect
freedom.
