Making Live Wires Dead.

A Bostonian has invented q device to
insure the safety of people and animals
travelling along streets and roads from the
''live" electric wire when it breaks and
falls, putting life in jeopardy. 1t is an
attachment to be connected with the
wires at intervals of about $50 feet, and
consists of piece of rubber about eight
inches in length, in the centre of W aich
is spiral spring, TO one end of which il
attached an Insulated wire connected
with piston in the centre. At the
other end OF the mechanical device is a
copper wire. The idea is to connect it
with the electric wires attached to the
trolley poles. When attached to the
wire the spiral spring is pulled back to
its full extent, and in case a wire should
break the end upon which is the piston
portion of the device recoils instantly to
the other end and shuts off all the cur
rent on the wire, thus making the wire
which las fallen a dead" one. 1t is
also claimed that if a broken electric
wire falls upon a rcalarm wire with the
new construction attached it will not in
terfere with the working of the fire

SCIENCE IN THE GARDEN.

In an essay read before the Massachus-
etts Horticultural Society by o. L. Allen,
of Floral Park, n. Y, it was said that
to the gardener the scotsman is in
debted for the novelties" which he
sends forth. The keen discrimination of
the gardener has detected some little var
iation in form, color or marking of a
flower, either a sprout, chance seed
ling, or perchance the result of syste-
matte fertilization. He may have dis
covered plant remarkable for it's vigor
and with flowers larger, OF more sub
stance snd of a deeper color than the
type. He selects the seeds from these
and by careful, systematic selection after
years of patient industry establishes a
type of superior merit.
The same is true of scientific knowl-
edge in its relation to plant-culture,
growth or development. We are in
debted to the gardener for all the facts
pertaining to these subjects which the
principal scientists are teaching. Practi,
cal knowledge can be gained from no other
source. If man wants the real knowl-
edge of plants he must go to the garden
er and learn of the plant. He must be a
gardener. It matters not whether he is
to teach the art or practice it, the gar
den is the school and nature the head
teacher. However much the science
may be disseminated afterwards, it is
born in the garden and graded by the
gardener. Men are apt to think there is
a conflict between science and practice,
but this is a great mistake; they are
simply cause and effect. A simple detin-
ition of the word science would be, ex-
act fact-NeU York World.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Sow lime broadcast over the onion bed
as protection against worms.
Chop the manure we'll into the soil of
the garden. Use only the fine and we'll
rotted material. Coarse manure, con-
tanning cornstalks, straw, or other litter
not decomposed, will only be in the way
of the young and tender plants. The
finer the manure the better.
The hog pen is nuisance that ought
to be abolished. 4 small pasture of
green food, containing comfortable shell
ter and conveniences for feeding and
watering, should be provided; then hogs
will be healthy, have good appetites and
good digestion, and that is all they
want.
The more wrinklcd the peas the better
the quality of the variety. The early
peas are usually smooth. The dwarf va
1ieties can be grown with the least labor,
as they need no supports; but later on
the taller kinds should be planted, as
they are not only of better quality, but
afford greater number of pickings.
The manure of the different kinds of
farm stock varies in quality or richness,
because they receive different kinds of
rations, and because they assimilate
their food differently. The manure
from the stalls of fattening animals is
richer; that is to say, is worth more per
ton than that from stock fed on grain or
mill feed.
A hand seeder will distribute the
seeds in the row much better than can
be done with the fingers. Some seed
drills open the rows. plant and cover the
seeds, and mark of the next rows. IT
the proper implements were used for the
garden there would be less complaint of
the labor required in growing vegetables
for family use.
Professor J. w. Sanborn says: cup to
800 pounds weight the calf consumes
3.3 per cent. OF its live weight daily;
from 800 to 700 pounds weight in the
steer requires three per cent. of live
weight daily; from 700 to 1000 pounds
2.9 per cent, and thereafter some 20
per cent. of live weight daily. More at
first and less at the finish. 1t requires
about ope-third of this food in grain"

VALUE OF HORSE HIRE.

Few farmers who feed their stock
home grown products, hay or grain,
appreciate the cost of keeping a horse
through the year. The city liveryman
does, and reckoning on days when horses
must be idle, he charges what seems a
very high price when in use. 1t needs
a constant run of custom to keep up a
good livery, even at these high prices
for horse hire, as there are always liza
bilities to accidents, and allowance must
be made for these. A careful teamster
informed us that his team of horses,
worth at least $500, cost for keeping,
horse-shoeing. interest, depreciation in
value and insurance, an average of 81 for
each working day in the year. And he
had to contend in this climate with
some days when for man or team to work
out of doors cost more than he could
afford. The more we study this ques-
ton the less excessive the estimate
seems. The teamster gave nearly an
hour of each day in simply caring for his
team, and this carefully done, as he did
it, was worth pay whether he charged
for it or not.-B0ston CultiUGtor.

PREPARING THE SOIL.

With the majority of crops it is not
necessary to prepare the surface of the
soil deep. If the surface is thoroughly
fixed to the depth of three or four inches,
that is really all that is necessary and the
implements that will do this best and
most economically are the ones that
should be used.
Many follow the plan of blowing the
land in the fall or early winter and then
working it into proper depth in the
spring with the cultivator and harrow.
This is very considerable saving over
the old plan of blowing in the spring be-
fore seeding or planting. With all crops
it pays to take time to work the
soil into good depth before planting
the seed and the more thoroughly this is
done the better the termination and
growth of the plants. It is quite an
item with spring work to get everything
done in good season, and as a rule every
thing that will save time or lessen work
in the spring should be taken advantage
of.
Whether the common diamond shaped
cultivator or the disc or spring tooth
harrow are used, care should be taken to
work into good depth. Their princi-
pie advantage is in the saving of time.
Oats can be sown broadcast either by
hand or with the seeder and worked into
the soil with one of these implements
and the work be done very rapidly.
With corn one or two workings with one
of these implements is all that is usually
necessary to fit for the planter. By pre-
parir g in a good depth before planting,
the cultivation can be commenced earlier
than would otherwise be possible.
In many cases it will be necessary to
use the spike tooth harrow to finish up
before seeding. The character of the
soil should determine the kind of nipple
ment to use. No one implement will do
best under all cultivation and little care
in the selection will make a considerable
difference in the result. The best i'm
plements to use are those that do the

Pelted the General With Bread.

Privates of the garrison at Avignon,
France, amused themselves one recent
afternoon by throwing hard army bread
from the barrick windows at passing
civilians In the midst of the sport q
tall, elegantly dressed man in high hat
came in sight. A chunk of bread knocked
off his hat. He saw the soldiers at the
windows and without waiting to pick up
his hat walked into the barracks Tive
minutes later the soldiers learned that he
was General Quenot, commander of the
thirtieth division of the French army,
and five minutes later all were in the
guard house.-Bost0n Transcript.

ENDURING FENCE POSTS.

Charring the ends of posts that are to
be set in the ground is often recon-
mended, but when the time and trouble
required in doing it are considered it is
doubtful if it will pay. AS a general
thing heartwood and the wood from
mature trees, neither very young or very
old, will last longer than wood from
trees of either extreme. In heavy clay
soils always wet or moist posts will en-
dure longer than in gravelly and lighter
ones that are alternately wet and dry.
Usually trees grown on dry uplands, if
of the proper age, are worth more as
fuel or timber than such as are grown in
a dense forest, or low, rich land.-Neao

Editor LIGHT:
Your notes on West End yesterday,
while entirely correct, might permit an
envious person TO charge that "relief for
want of water is sought here" Such ]
presume was not your informant'S inten-
tion, for the people Of West End get their
healthy artesian water much cheaper
than any existing two or three million
dollar water works plant furnishes it
elsewhere. The West End Town compa-
ny until completion of its own water
works, furnish customers residents at
West Ends barrels of water for Is cents,
and 1t requires an actual waste of 1t to
run the charge as high as 81 per month
for the largest family. No other compa-
ny dealing in suburban resident property
treat their customers as liberal as does
the West End Town company, and if
any dissatisfaction ever existed here it
can safely be traced beyond the confines
OF West End into the very city council
itself, 1T might be mentioned for instance
that since the West End secured a few
electric lights, street after street has been
filling up with occupied dwellings, but no
additional light appears.
Some neighbors of mine recently count
ed the children of scholastic age near the
lake and between 20 and so was the result.
Some OF these have to pay for private tut
ton, others must go to the city, while
some few may be deprived of attending
school at all, simply because the West
End is too for off to meet the gaze of an
alderman at large and because it has no
ward alderman in its midst to mention us
to a school board.
| understood that Superintendent
Smith, a year ago recommended
school for us, but that school
sleeps in some pigeon hole, never to be
resurrected, until sense of justice over
takes the present city administration or
until by the aid of the Australian ball OF
a new one is created
The rains yesterday helped to fill up the
West End lakes somewhat, of late they
were decreasing slightly, not so much
through absorption from heath as oy the
watering of thousands and thousands of
stock of all kinds.
There's one thing we can do at West
End, defy the city'S heat AMI keep cool
even if the city council is &c Us no friend,
and gives US neither streets, nor school,
