the spade in regular rows, and then the
plants are lifted, with a mass Of earth
on them and placed in position in the
new bed. This work may be done any
time in the year, when the ground is
not frozen. We have had ripe berries
in this way six weeks after early spring
planting. Caution is necessary in
adopting this mode on adhesive or
heavy soils, not to press it with the
spade with such frmness as to make it
compact, solid or adhesive.
These different methods have various
advantages, but it should be borne in
mind that the plants exhaust the soil
more or less, and require the annual
application of manure or fertilizers.
But the most perfect growth, and es-
pecially required for marketing, and
berries of the finest quality are to be
obtained only by making new beds by
trans planting into rich, fresh, weu-pre-
pared soil. If done as soon as the crop
has been gathered, say about the mid
! die of summer, when the soil is suf-
ficiently moist, they will come forward
and make good growth through AL
tumn, and be nearly as forward as if
set out the previous spring. They may
be set month later, cutting off all the
old and large leaves, and preserving
the freshly-applied moisture in the soil
with a fine mulch of paanure.-Country

First Notica NJ Coal.

So far as / have ever read, the frat
notice Of coal in Pennsylvania was
msde public by Gabriel Thomas In his
Historical and Geographical Account"
published in 1898 He say that he be-
lieved there was coal in the province
because he had observed that the runs
of water have. the same color as that
which proceeds from the coal mines in
Wales" The map published by Scull
in ITO bore the word ''coal" at point
near the site of Pottsville. The first
actual discovery of coal, however,
which led to its being mined and mark
eted was made by Philip Ginter, a
hunter, on Sharp mountain, nine miles
northwest of Mauch Chunk, in 179L In
the town just mentioned, the grandson
of the discoverer of this vast wealth

shallow one. Also there is less sur
face exposed at the top,
3. The ensilage should be fed from
the top, as this exposes less to the air
than when taken from the side.
a. That for the same reason large
silos should be divided into compart.
ments and one compartment fed out at
time.4 ... .,...... |..
8. That unless feeding is begun soon
after the silo is filed, . close cover
should be provided. Such protection
may consist of coarse hay, chaff, straw,
earth, boards, etc, the necessary con.
dition being that the air be excluded.
G. That the bottom of the silo should
be SO constructed as to exclude rats, by
a layer of small stones or grout laid be-
fore the cement is applied.
In constructing silo only sound and
well-seasoned timber should be used.
Unsound or sappy wood will rot out in
a short time. If any difference exists,
the best lumb Der should be reserved for
the inside lining and should be placed
at the bottom. Perfect ventilation on
both sides of the lining, beams, stills,
etc., should be provided to prevent
rotting. The best Innings consist of
two layers of narrow boardswith tarred
paper between them. 1t is not essen
tial that the Innings should be matched
but the boards should be of uniform
width. The Innings may be made more
effective by painting the sides next the
paper with hot coal tar. The sills
should likewise be tarred and should
rest on good stone wall.

FARM AND GARDEN.

WHERE ono has small plat and pre-
fers to grow lowers, the soapsuds will
be found excellent if thrown alound
the shrubs and bushes, but the surface
of the ground should not be allowed to
bake or become hard.
WHEN plant produces seed it will
not afterward make an attempt to
flower. Pansies, which bear flowers
profusely, should be kept clean by
picking the flowers off daily. If this
is not done the supply of flowers will
soon fall off.
THE familiar green cabbage worm
(Pieris rap@) is bred by whitish but
terfy. There are two broods, one in
April, one in the fall The worm
works down into the head, cutting
through leaf after leaf in its search for
the tenderest parts.
THE rules that apply to beef cattle
apply, to some extent, to poultry raised
for their flesh. A fowl to be profitable
for this purpose must be "near the
grognd," that is, the legs should be
short and thick. Long-legged fowls
are not desirable.
MANY small fruit growers have been
dissatisfied with the dewberry on ae-
count of its troublesome habit of
growth. A Pennsylvania cultivator has
trained his bushes upon light wire
trellis. and thus overcome all diff
culties of cultivation.
If you are going to buy COW for
your dairy test her first. We know of
q dairyman that, when about to buy a
COW, rides through the country gather
ing samples of milk from the cows
offered for sale. He tests the milk at
his home, and buys accordingly. He
makes money out of his dairy.
In making the well-known kerosene
emulsion it is an easy matter to make
mistake, so that the kerosene sep
arates from the water. Kerosene will
mix with milk or soapsuds, but in maxi
ing the emulsion plenty of soap should
be used, as il will be difficult to mix
the substances unless such is the case.

CUTTING CORN FODDER.
4 Feed That Keeps Live stock Ia decd

4 Feed That Keeps Live stock Ia Decd
Condition In the Winter.
Good corn fodder 10 one OF the cheap
est and best rough feeds on the farm.
In making the necessary grain the fod'
der is grown so that the only item OF
expense is the cutting, shocking up and
hauling out Yet when there is con-
siderable acreage this is quite task, Sc
much so that in many cases sufficient
quantity cannot be gathered at the
right stage to be of the best quality
without hiring extra help. To a con-
siderable extent the quality or value OF
feed is largely determined by the age
at which it is cut and the manner OF
curing and storing away.
chinery will not only lessen the labor,
but afford a much better opportunity
of getting the work done in good sea-
son. With a corn harvester, two men
and one horse will put from six to
eight acres of corn in the shock, aud in
this way q considerable quantity Of
good feed can be secured in . short
time and at comparatively small
cost. Too much fodder is allowed to
get too ripe before cutting. So far as
is possible it will be best to begin cut
ting when the grain begins to harden
well.
The size of the shocks should be de-
termined largely by the management
to be given. If, as is often done, the
fodder is to stand in the field until it is
hauled out and fed to the stock, it will
be best to put up in large shocks, while
if it is to be hauled in and stored under
shelter as soon as it is sufficiently
cured, small shocks are much the best;
where fodder is left standing out there
is always more or less damaged fodder
on the outside of the shocks. The rain,
snow, wind and sun bleach and evapo-
rate good portion of the nutriment in
the stalks SO that it is quite an item to
lessen the amount that is exposed to
these elements as much as possible,
and this is the advantage in putting up
in large shocks. Sixteen hills square
is not too large. But when it is to be
hauled in under shelter as soon as pos
sible eight or ten hills square is large
enough.
With good shelter cattle, sheep and
horses can be kept in good thrifty con.
dition all winter with very little grain
and consequently at low cost if the
fodder is of good quality, or if the fod-
der is cut up fine and small quantity
of oil, meal and bran added this class
of stock can be kept thrifty during the
winter, and much feed that is allowed
to go to waste can. be used in this way
and thus much grain be saved to feed
to fattenin G stock.-St. Louis Republic.
