Big Pumpkin Farming.

The pumpkins shown in the cut are
mammoth affairs, grown on the Pelham
farm, in Ulster county. n. Y. From an
acre TO an acre and half Of pumpkins
are grown each year. These are planted
IN sod with plenty Of stable manure
and also some fertilizer in the hill. The
hills are twenty feet apart. They are
cultivated by horse and hand as long
As the vines will permit In time OF
drought water is brought in barrels and
poured around each hill. The flowers
are pinched Off, so that each vine will
produce but one big fellow. The largest
pumpkins yet grown there weighed 23s.
33l and 3i7 pounds, respectively.
Mr. House, the manager of the Pei
ham farm, is not satisfied with these
weights and proposes to reach 400
pounds next year. The raising and

A Device Which Can BE Made at Home
illustrated and Described.
The device here illustrated can be
made entirely at home, excepting the
weight and hook. A block of iron
weighing forty or fifty pounds is re-
quired. This you can have cast Its es-
sential features are ring TO hoist it by
and grooves in the sides in which to
slide the tongues attached to the up
rights To have the dump self acting
the hook must be made of the precise
pattern shown. Any blacksmith can re-
produce it. The hook is pulled down to
the weight resting on top of the post
and slipped into its ring.
As the weight is hoisted the hook ring
will be seen to remain at the left hand
end of the slot, as shown. When it has
reached the height at which it is desired
to drop the weight, the long tongue of
the hook trips against a rod or slat ex-
tended across the frame for the purpose
and is pulled down This act lets the
weight slide to the left and the hook
