FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

The cheapest food may not be the most
healthy to feed.
Systematic selling is as necessary as
good production.
Good to nail to the barn door: "Who
enters here leaves pipe behind"
Have your hogs good dry bed or
mud hole to sleep in these days4
Did you ever see hog that did not
relish good, sweet slop2 Why then feed
sour swill2
Don't keep matches lying round the
barn loose, better have them in an iron
or tin box.
Next week is when you want to take
care of the brood mare that is soon to
foal. Don't overwork her.
1t does not pay to have colts come be-
fore the rough weather of spring is over,
and then not take care of them.
Some people think farm animal is
like postage-stamp good until
licked. They are sadly mistaken.
The wood with which your silo is built
can be preserved with gas tar and gaso-
line paint; this is cheap and efficient.
The hog is probably the most conven-
lent and profitable adjunct to the dairy.
But he should not be too close an adjunct.
Set out the fruit trees and plant as ear
ly in the spring as the soil can be worked
into good condition and your other
work on the farm will permit.
When a number of calves are kept in
the same pen it will be conducive to the
comfort and profit of all concerned if
stanchions are provided, and pail for
each calf
A bit of fine hay placed in sight Of the
calf will tempt it to eat that rather than
the bedding. After drinking its milk a
little meal or Il few oats put in the pail
will soon teach it to eat.
Usually cherries and plums should be
grated first in the spring; the scions
should be cut at the first opportunity, if
it is not already done. Set the root
CRAFTS out as soon as possible.
Beets, onions and other root crops are
improved by carefully selecting such roots
for seed as we wish to grow, and doing
this for several consecutive years will fix
the type so that the roots will come true.
Cutting of currants and gooseberries
should be made and set out as soon as
possible. With little care in selecting
good, vigorous shoots, this is one of the
quickest and easiest ways of propogat-
ing.
A very good plan for setting out
small plants of any kind is to run out
straight burrows the proper distance
apart, running twice in each furrow if
necessary to secure the proper depth and
width.
Ice is by no means necessary in making
gilt-edge butter. At least three-fourths
of the best butter in the United States is
made without ice. Pure cold water only
is used. Yet ice is very desirable, when
it can be obtained at moderate cost.
Old nurserymen do not plant blocks of
apple trees after crop of such trees has
recently been taken from the field. They
give the land a rest. Do not plant straw
berries on old strawberry ground, nor
raspberries after raspberries, etc. A
change is desirable.

WISE WORDS.

A woman never blames a man when
she can possibly blame a woman.
Our thoughts are our friends or our
enemies, according as they are good or
evil.
The knowledge beyond all other
knowledge is the knowledge how to ex-
cuse.
Happiness, not unlike the snail, is sell
dom found from home, or without a
home.
True friendship consists not in winning
and receiving all but surrendering and
giving all.
He who gives all his time and thoughts
to ambition has none left for friendship
an happiness.
Most people would succeed in small
things, if they were not troubled with
grea. ambitions.
The best characters have a mixture of
infrmities, and the worst have sometimes
redeeming virtues.
There is some value in being abused,
for thoroughly worthless people do not
receive even that much notice.
Sometimes it is those who have seemed
the hardest to gain as friends who after
ward prove the most faithful ones.
Boast of your wife's good cooking to a
guest, and you will have the poorest din
ner you ever had when you get home.
Nothing is easier than fault finding.
No talent, no self-denial, no character, is
required to set up in the grumblng bust
ness.
If a man abuses one woman in the
presence of another, she distrusts him,
and if he compliments some other woman,
it makes her mad.
The mouse that gets caught in a trap
can never be so young that its friends
will not say that it was old enough to
have known better.
Before marriage she sends little notes
to the Office inquiring after his health ;
after marriage she sends little notes in
quiring after his pocketbook.
To love our friends we must serve
them; love promotes knowledge; knowl-
edge promotes sympathy, and apprecia-
tive sympathy wins love in return.
Self-distrust is the cause of most of
our failure. In the assurance strength
there is strength, and they are the weak
est, how ever strong, who have no faith
in themselves or their powers.

HOW TO MAKE CONCRETE WALLS.

These directions for making concrete
walls, given by an expert, will answer
the inquiry Of correspondent and per-
haps prove of benefit to other readers,
says the New York Witness: Erect
scafitlings as guide for the boards form
ing the mold for the walls. Select ce-
ment fresh from the kiln, and sharp and
perfectly clean and free from loan. To
one part of the cement add two parts of
sand, and thoroughly mix them dry.
Just before use add water enough to
make a thin mortar. Add gravel and
broken stones, and stir them until the
surfaces are thoroughly coated with NOR
tar. Then Immediately place the masses
in boxes or molds on the wall. Or pour
the mortar thickened with gravel into
the molds, and bed the broken stone in
1t, being careful not to have them touch
the sides of the box. Do not mix up
more than can be handled at once. The
concrete in the walls will set or harden
in few hours, when the boards can be
raised and another layer put on The
proportions between the sand and con-
crete should vary with the quality of the
former, from two to five parts of sand to
one of the best of cement. 1t is better
for the stone to be of various sizes. No
permanent framework is needed for the
walls. For wall twelve feet high,
twelve inches is thick enough.

A Dwarf Queen Who Charmed Stanley

The Independence Beige has secured
from Stanley a most interesting series of
letters, the latest of which deals largely
with the dwarf tribe of the forest. He
says they are the Oldest aristocrats in the
world, with institutions dating back fifty
centuries. They are ruled by a queen, a
beautiful, charming little woman, who
was exceptionally kind to Stanley and
his comrades. He intended to bring her
to Europe along with other dwarfs, but
she was so i'll on the road that she had to
be sent back and the others died when
they emerged from the forest to the
plains. There are numerous photographs
of them, however, and Stanley makes the
Queen a conspicuous figure in his book.
The dwarfs are of olive complexion, re-
narkably intelligent, ingenious artincers
in iron and ivory, and probably the only
homogeneous race in Africa,

THE CULTURE OF CELERY.

Make level bed on rich, mellow
soil, fined down by thorough raking.
Have the rows eight or nine inches
apart. Sow the seed rather thinly. After
sowing, pat the bed down with spade
or shovel. This will be eIough to
cover the seed. Just as soon as the seed
has sprouted enough to reveal the rows,
commence to hoe lightly between the
rows, and begin to pull out the weeds as
soon as they can be seen. As the plants
advance in growth, shear off the tops.
This ought to be done at least twice be-
fore the time for setting out. This in
duces stocky growth. The time for
setting out in the Northern States may
run from the middle of June to the end
of July, and in the Southern from the
middle of August TO the close of Septem-
Der. In the latitude of Chicago, July is
good month in which to do the trans
planting. Celery requires cool, moist
atmosphere to do its best. Unless it is
made special crop it is always grown as
second crop after peas, early beets or
onions. Where the land is in the
condition it should be for these
crops, no manure need be added.
After the ground has been nicely
prepared, stake out lines on the level
surface three feet apart and set the
plants six inches apart in the rows. If
the weather is dry at the time special
pains must be taken that the roots are
properly firmed. After the plants are
set out nothing else need be done for six
or eight weeks except to run the cutIva-
tor down the rows often enough to keep
down weeds, and to use the hoe often
enough between the plants to produce
the same effect. That is, set out your
plants and keep them clean for six OF
| eight weeks. About this time it will dc
TO earth up the plants that they may be
bleached or whitened. In doing this
care must be used not to get the dirt
among the leaves, gather the tops to,
gether and hold them so, while the dirt
is drawn to them by the other hand.
The dirt may be got near the plants by
the hoe before beginning the operation.
Many growers now bleach celery by
| using small tile placed over the plants.
When wished Tor winter use celery may
be left out of doors till quite severe
freezing weather, as moderate freezing
does not injure it. 1t may be stored fol
winter use in dry earth in boxes or in
cellars il raised in large quantities.
To ship to market, trim off the roots
then tie in punches about four inches il
diameter and pack in light boxes. Farm

wGRE-woRMs AND CUT. WORMS.

The common species of the cut-worm
sewers the stalks of the young corn either
above or just underneath the surface Of
the ground; consequently, anything ap-
piled to the seed or put in the hill at the
time of planting would not in any way
interfere with the ravages of this pest.
In England these worms are called "sur-
face.worms," because they work on or
near the surface, and always at night /;
hiding during the day near the plants
they have been feeding upon. If hunted
early in the morning they may be readily
found and killed. The different species
of the wire-worm work on the young
sprouting corn and roots, and if the
seed is well tarred before planting, the
worms are not likely to trouble it. A
half pint of warm pine-tar stirred into a
bushel of corn until every kernel is
lightly coated with it, will not only pre-
vent the crows from pulling it up but
also check the work of the wire-worms.
Wire-worms may be trapped with pieces
of raw potatoes placed near the hills and
lightly covered with earth.

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
EcoNoN1z1Ne rrAMs IN srMMrn.

No farmer likes to be overstocked with
horoes at any season, but the great amount
of farm work now done by horse labor
makes it more important to keep the
teams in use as much as possible. Horses
at work on the farm are better unshod,
and by doing all the road work with one
team II considerable blacksmiths bill for
horse shoeing may be saved. Have the
collars fit the shoulders perfectly. Poorly
fitting collars early in the season cause
CALLED places, and these keep many a
horse idle when with little timely care
he would be better every way for hard
seasons Boston Cultirator.

Peculiar Views on the Subject Enter
tanned by y Humanitarian.
1t may now be asked what form Of
punishment should be substituted for
the death penalty. 1t is not necessary
to my purpose in writing this article
that should touch that subject at all.
This article is written mainly for the
purpose of protesting against the crime
OF capital punishment, and not for the
purpose Of explaining what can or
should be substituted for it. 1t will not,
however, be out of place to say that the
most natural substitute for the death
penalty, under our form of government,
would be imprisonment for term suffi-
GENTLY long to demonstrate that the
offender might be safely allowed to go
| free. 1t is just as vicious, of course, to
imprison man for revenge as to
hang him for revenge. There is there
fore no sound reason why murder
er should be punished at all. It is
right that he should be apprehended
and confined until it is determined
whether he is of such a nature or dispo-
sition as to be likely to commit more
murders. But if this view of the case is
too nearly in accordance with. humane
considerations to suit this cruel and
b1oodthirsty age, then the obvious mode
of punishment to substitute for judicial
killing is imprisonment at hard labor
for life. This is far too cruel punish
ment to visit upon any one for any
crime done under the impulse of pas
sion, but among people who SO FREE
quently say, Hanging is too good for
him." and who are so given to lynch.
ings, it is as much Of modification of
our present practice as we would expect
to get.
1t has been observed that most of the
murders occur among the poor people,
and upon the top floors of tenement
houses; that is to say, among the
poorest of the poor. The connection
between poverty and the crime
of murder, like the connection between
poverty and all other crime, is demon.
strably close. If 1--WE could cure tho
social disease of poverty the seeds of
crime would be destroyed. The people
rarely think of this. They think it is
our business to punish crime, but it is
our best business to prevent it. Our
present organization Of society manu-
features criminals faster than we can
possibly take care of them. Poverty
derrades men; it robs them of leisure
which is absolutely necessary for the
development of mind and the domino
ton of passions; it keeps the people
hungry and fierce; it imbrutes them; it
makes Ishmaels of them--their hand is
against society as the hand of society
is against them. Plant generation OF
paupers and you will reap crop OF
criminals.
