FARM AND GARDEN.

THIN out your early beets by using
the large ones for the table, or, if
necessary, thin them out and throw
the surplus beets and leaves to the
pigs.
FERTILIZER at the stem of plant is
not as valuable as if mingled in the
soil around it, a foot away or more,
according to the size of the growing
plant above ground. For trees it should
extend even further than the largest
branches.
ALL stimulants should be applied
with care. Bcgonias are particularly
sensitive to them, and they should be
used but seldom on geraniums, but to
roses, fuchsias, carnations, heliotropcs
and others they may be given with
more safety.
If the droppings from the cows in
small pasture become very noticeable
it will pay to have the heaps scattered
over the ground. If left, major part
of the fertility sinks directly into the
soil and gets down below the roots of
the grass.
The cost Of keeping a COW has been
shown to be about 10 cents per day,
or $50 per year. Any variation from
this is probably offset by the differ
ence in value of products. If a COW
will not pay this per year she is worse
than no COW.
IN order to lessen the number of in.
sects next season make il a point to
rake up all the fallen fruits, as they
will make excellent food for the pigs if
cooked. 1t Is in the fallen apples,
peaches and pears that many of the
insects are bred.
A FARMER should first find out
whether or not his COW is capable of
producing profit before beginning to
feed her on scientific principles. There
are thousands of cows that could not
produce Il cents worth of profit on the
best feed on earth.

The Youthful Queen wnhelmlna of Hol
land.

The Youthful Queen wilhelmina OF Hol-
land.
Wilhelmina, queen of the Netherlands,
was born at The Hague on August 81,
$780, and received the full name of VIII
helmina Helena Pauline Marie. The
monarchies of the Netherlands includes
not only Holland, but its colonial de-
tendencies in South America and the
East and West Indies. These colonies
are both rich and extensive, covering
an area of eight hundred thousand
square miles, and containing popula-
ton of more than twenty-seven million,
six times that of Holland itself
The youthful Dutch queen is the
daughter of William Ill, who died on
November 2S. 1890, and of Emma AIDE
laide Wilhclmina, princess of Waldeek-
Pyrmont Her father was the last de-
scendant in the direct line of one of the
most famous families in Europe, the
house of Orange Nassau, which has
given to history three splendid figures:
William the Silent, the first Stakeholder
of the Dutch republic, his son Maurice,
and William Ill, who became also king
of England.
From her early childhood Princess
Wilhelmina has been trained TO prepare
her for her royal duties She has been
carefully educated under an English
governess, having been required to
master the English and French Ian
guages as well as the Dutch, and great
attention has been given to her diet,
oil t1,af nn,,1I ,s-fl. n
to her health. She has also received
the constant supervision of her mother,
a woman of amiable character and ex-
cellent Judgment, who is greatly and
deservedly beloved in Holland, and who
acts as queen regent during her daugh-
ter's minority. As princess, Wilhelmina
is dressed plainly, wearing simple white
gowns, and having as her only orna-
ment turquoise or pearl necklace.
She will not take up the full duties
of queen for six or seven years to come,
and probably there will be no great
change in her habits and privileges in
the interval
The people of Holland have welcomed
her to the throne with feelings of ten
der pride and interest akin to those
with which more than half a century

though not regular fete, was usually
celebrated with public rejoicings by the
people.-St Nicholas.
