TO SUBDUE WEEDS.
How to Keep the Farm Clear of Obnoz
iOus Plant GrOwths.

How to Keep the Farm Clear of Obnox
fOus Plant GrOwths.
One important point in keeping a
farm clear from weeds is to see that
these germs are not imported in pur
chased seeds. Weeds are often intro
auced by the farmers own animals.
Horses that have been fed at the town
stables, and cattle that have been al
lowed to forage on the highways, may
each be the means of bringing obnox-
ious weeds onto the farm. For the
hoed crops clean cultivation is the an
tidote. Cut the weeds off at the sur
face of the ground at time when they
are at their BEST that is at the time of
Towering, and before the seed has
grown sufficient to terminate. This is
the best method of dealing with seeds
where they have become a pest in
meadows and pastures. In the latter
sheep are very efficient weed Destroy
ers, as they will browse closely many
varieties that cattle will not touch.
In some countries it is said there are
! fields entirely free from weeds, owing
to very high cultivation and careful Sc
lection of seeds and manures. Such re-
suits are not to be expected in this
country, and we shall continue to have
weeds as heretofore, but they can be
kept in such subsection as to reduce
their injurious effects to minimum.
Where they serve no better use, they at
least give evidence of the soils fertil-
ity. Unless rich ground is closely COW
cred with useful plants it is quite GER
tain to produce weeds. Nothing sur
passes clover for smothering weeds. If
sown thickly, and stock is kept off
from it after the moving, SO that some
of the seed from the second crop will
be scattered, it will gain complete po-
tession of the field, to the exclusion Of
| the weeds.-N. Y. World.

QUEER MILK BOYS OF NATAL.

They Serve Their Customers from Bottles
Carried in a Big Cartridge Belt.
No tradesman, except the butcher,
who rides round every afternoon to as
certain what is required for the next
day, calls for orders. Our milkmen, or
rather milk boys. are unique, their sole
garment consisting of an old piece of
sacking, with pockets of like material
sometimes as many as sixteen in two
tiers-sewn on back and front, some
what like an enlarged cartridge belt,
writes correspondent from Natal In
each pocket is an old wine or beer
bottle containing the milk, which the
boy empties at the house, eventually
| returning to the farm whence he set
out with the same number of empties
| as he started with full.
The wages of kaffir servants range
from ten to twenty-five shillings a
month, plus clothing, house and food,
which runs each up from twenty-five
to forty shillings month, in addition
to which it is customary to give each OF
them sixpence every Saturday to buy
meat or tobacco.
The most aggravating feature con.
nected with them is that after they
have been in service for few months
and are just getting into your ways
they want to return to their kraal and
live for some weeks life of com plete
idleness on their earnings.-N. Y

Origin Of the sids-ssddle.


The Mortified opposers of the move
ment for women's riding en- cavalier
may be interested in learning that had
it not been for an accident Of fashion
the gentler sex would be striding their
horses still, and that the side-saddle is
not an invention due to the advanced
modesty of civilization. It appears
that one Anna of Bohemia, eldest
daughter of German emperor and wife
Of an English king, introduced the Gus
tom, not from delicate repulsion to the
old method, but simply because she was
afflicted with some sort of deformity
that rendered it impossible for her to
ride upon the saddles in common use.
In those days it was imperative that a
woman should ride; accordingly the
first side-saddle was invented. Royalty
had then, as now, snobbish followers
ever on the alert to adopt fashions
honored by its patronage, and in few
months every woman of place inEngland
was ablished.-Chicago News.
"A Little Money!
The president of one of the great

need little money the latter part o

roader, calmly. Just telegraph tn

Boys.
How many boys long to catch the
rabbits whose tracks they see In the
light snow as they 60 to school or when
going across lots to feed at the stack or
chop in the woods. All through the
winter months these rabbits-or more
properly, hares-make delicious dishes.
They increase in number rapidly and
should be on the farmers table or sent
to market at least once each week. A
quickly-made trap is the cask pitfall
illustrated. A barrel or half barrel will
make two if sawn in halves. Each head
must of course be securely fastened in
place. Then for the open end make
another head and cleat it firmly so it
will not split apart. This head must
be a quarter of an inch smaller, all
around, than the barrel, and must be
hung on two heavy wire nails put
through gimlet holes in the sides of the
barrel 1t must not balance, but must
be centered so it will rest on the third
nail at one side. To set the trap, sink
it to the top in a snow-bank, or in de-
preston in the earth, and fill around it

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

BE prepared to plant onions at the
first opportunity.
If there is any doubt about the quail
ity of the seed, test them.%F& 2
EVEN the smallest seed will germin-
ate better if covered lightly.
RASPBERRY plants should be put out
as early as the soil will admit.
In pruning all large wounds should
be covered with white lead and oil.
BUCKwHEAT is good crop to grow in
the orchard to help build up fertility.
A LITTLE work now in providing good
drainage will help in getting the seed
in early:
So FAR as possible all the manure ap-
piled in the garden should be thorough
ly rotted and fine.
ONIONS, lettuce, pease, beets, radish
and spinach can be sown as soon as the
soil can be worked.
MIX the radish seed. using an early,
medium and late variety, in order to
keep up succession.
BY using the garden seed drill seed is
distributed more evenly in the row and
is covered more evenly.
IT is important in the garden and
orchard to get the work all done in sea-
son; planning ahead will aid in this.

Bleached Fruit Unhealthful.

Director Hilgard of the California
station believes that the public should
be taught to prefer healthy, broom,
high-favored fruit to the sickly-tinted,
chemically-tainted product of the sui
phur-box." When freshly-sliced fruit
is treated with sulphurous acid for a
short time, the effects are slight, yet
such as to protect the fruit from in
sects. When thoroughly sulphured
after drying, however, the fruit is in.
jured in flavor, and, worse still, sui
phuric acid is formed in sufficient
amount to be injurious to health. BY
analysis, sulphured apricots have been
found to contain .232 per cent of sui
phuric acid, or Is grains oil of vitrio!
per pound, and prunes .s4e per cent. Of
sulphuric acid (s5 grains per poand.) Ir
most countries of Europe the sale Of
sulphured fruit is torbidden.-Unitet
