Secret of Won NIoltke's Success.

The basis of Moltke's success was prepa-
ration, precision. For years the quiet man
had bent every energy to detail. He had
devoted no time to show work: he cared
naught for the outward parade of efficiency.
He had made sure that what the army
was on paper it was in effect; that every
man and officer was ready, and knew his
place and duty; that mobilization should
mean actual assembly. Every uncertain
element was eliminated. So far as lay
within human poweo the war had been re-
duced to q mathematical ca!culation.-Col.

Facts Worth Remem berin-.

The following notes in regard to spray
ing with poisonous substances for the
destruction of insects and combating
fungoid growthS, are condensed from a
paper read by Professor Maynard before
the Massachusetts Horticultural society:
Of all the arsenites paris green gives
the best results as an insecticide.
The longer the mixture containing ar
serites stands the greater the injury from
soluble arsenic.
The foliage of the peach, plum and
cherry is more susceptible TO injury than
that of the apple or pear.
The injury varies with the varieties,
some being more susceptible than others.
Young leaves are less injured than
those fully developed, and are more in
Jured on weak trees than on those that
are vigorous and healthy.
Paris green cannot be used alone with
safety stronger than one pound to 800
gallons of water, but with the lime mix
ture it may be safely used at one pound
to rom fifty to two hundred gallons.
The foliage is most injured when kept
constantly Wet by light rains or foggy
weather, but heavy rains lessen the injury.
The least injury is done when the
liquor dries off most rapidly.
The time of day when the application
is made is uuimportant.

Doing Up Lawn Dresses.

The best way is to obtain suds by dissolv-
ing shavtngs of soap in basin of hot
water, then adding the solution to the
wash water. This is especially to be done
with black lawn, which should be quickly
washed out in hot suds and Immediately
rinsed in water made quite dark with blue
ing. 1t should be dried in the shade and
ironed while damp enough not to need
sprinkling II starch is used it should be
made very blue and diluted till quite thin

then starched, and while still damp ironed
on the wrong side. 1t is often advisable to
set the colors in other lawns by soaking in
a pail of salt and water, or in a pail of
water in which little sugar of lead has
been dissolved; this latter especially to
prevent blues from fading

This Is what ..ProtectjoIS;, Does.

During the campaign of 1888, when
the Republican party promised a pro-
tective tariff in the interest of home la
Dor, the Arcade File Works company, of
Sing Sing, Republican in policy, assured
their men better times and higher wages,
and the men supported the ticket The
higher wages have never come, nor, ap-
parently, the better times, for the com
pany has now ordered reduction in the
wages of their employees of from 10 to 40
per cent.
These employees do not see the benefit
Of this sort of protection, and held a

After discussing the unpleasant subject
for some time they decided to adjourn
and make inquiry as to the prices paid

Points in Corn Culture.

We find the following in a bulletin
from the South Dakota station: Thorough
preparation of the soil before planting
and early cultivation before and immedi-
ately after the corn is up are the surest
and most economic methods of clearing
the field of weeds. Frequent shallow cul-
tivltion throughout the first half of the
season gives the most favorable conditions
for full growth ard maturity, and fosters
the moisture III the soil for the use of the
plant. The varieties of corn that have
proved best in the station tests are as
follows: Flints-Landreth Extra Early,
King Philip, Early Canada, Yellow Smut
Nose, Chadwick, Blue Blade, Self Husl1-
ing, Pride of Dakota. Dents-Loveland's
Hughson's, Gold Coin, Davis White and
Dakota King. All the above varieties,
planted at different intervals in MAY,
have matured with US by the 18th day
of September.

The cities of Rock Island and Moline
now stand in those relations to each
other which they should have held a
quarter of a century ago. Had the
friendly feeling which is the outgrowth
of Tuesday nights conference at the
Harper, been cultivated years ago both
cities would have been more prosperous
and larger than they row sTe. if, indeed,
the sectional line would not have entirely
disappeared. Rock Island and Moline
are practically one, geographically speak
ing, and can never be otherwise, and
both have stood in their own light as
well as in the light OF each other by pur>
suing an unfriendly and sntsgonistc
course. Let US hope that the Columbian
celebration PROJECT upon which both have
entered so heartily will lead not only to
the success Of the endeaVer far surprising
the expectious of the present, but that
henceforth the two cities may work to-
gether, in everything that looks To the
promotion of both, or of either.

how to Provide Safe Storage for Winter
Vegetables and Roots
When large quantities of roots are
grown on the farm, roothouse for the
safe storage of winter vegetables and
roots becomes decided convenience
and in some cases an absolute necessity.
With view to assisting faSmers who
may contemplate the building of a
special storage room, we here give an
Illustrated description of a roothouse
from Country Gentleman.
The roothouse may be built on level
OF sloping ground. If level, it may be
mostly above ground, or partly sunk if
ample drainage can be secured. On
sloping ground the same care is required
for drainage. The walls, whether of
wood, brick or stone, should be double,
with an air space to exclude frost. The
door should also be double. as well as the
roof. Ample provision must be made
for ventilation to prevent Deating or
