FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Do not crowd the plants in window
boxes.
Breeding birds should be kept in good
condition.
The longer Moore's early grape re-
mains on the vine the better for it.
Hoeing a bed of strawberries once or
twice week, will pay enormously.
Rotation is advised in the flower gar
den as well as in the vegetable garden.
Prune in June to promote fruitfulness;
to promote tree growth, prune in winter.
During the winter months, radishes
may be successfully grown in a shallow
box of rich earth placed indoors.
If you are in any doubt as to the best
place to put the manure, put the bulk OF
it on the grass and clover. 1t will al.
ways pay its way there.
Mlllet and Hungarian grass make good
winter food for the COWS, if cut early.
If allowed to ripen their seeds, the hay
becomes of little value.
All that is required of soil for the cul.
tivation of strawberries, is, that it shall
be of good fertility aud of sufficient cul-
ture to keep it from weeds.
When trausplantng plants from hot
beds to seed beds, a good scheme is to
thoroughly wet the soil two or three
hours before taking up the plants.
One good point about dairy farming is
that it gives a continuous income through
! ho 10 Nhan g.
large sum once or twice during the
twelve months.
A little grain fed after the cows are
turned upon grass, will more than repay
the cost. A sudden aud complete change
Of food is almost always detrimental to
the milk flow.
Potatoes furnish cash crop, aud
rarely sell below price that affords
fair profit, aud If you give extra cultiva-
tion aud raise an extra crop you are re-
warded accordingly.
Farmers seem to neglect the growing
Of pumpkins more than they used to.
A crop can be easily and cheaply grown
among the corn, and can be made use
full in number of ways.
Cabbages thrive better when they are
set low in the ground, so as to make
room for a cavity about each plant, in
which water may be poured each evening
when the ground is dry.
Tobacco powder, the dross of cigar
factories, can be successfully used to rid
cucumbers, squashes, ETC., of the pesky,
striped bug. This powder at the same
time acts as a fertilizer.
Skim-mil6 and young calves and pigs
make a combination that grows into
money rapidly. If the dairy does not
pay, 1t may be because portion of this
combination is lacking.
The soil Of pear orchard cannot be
too rich for success for if the trees are
planted forty feet apart and strawberries
are planted in the intervening spaces, all
attended with regular aud careful cul-
ture the owner will have little cause to
mourn. Two good crops can be grown
on the same land under the right eondi-
tions.

THE ALCOHOLIC APPETITE,

Philadelphia medical journai the
Times and Register, recently devoted almost
an entire number to the discussion of the
alcoholic question, including the Kelley
Cure, and other methods of dealing with
inebriety. The contributors to this medical
symposium are well known physicians.
Among the suggestive and valuable articles
is one by DR.. +, Chenery, o; Boston, entitled
Thought on the Alconal Disease" from
which we quote the following:
This magazine of appetite in the human
breast will not explode unless struck by the
lightning of alcohol, and then it is as sure to
go off as keg OF powder with live coal
thrown into it.
Therefore the whole nature of the thing,
whether in incipiency or in actual develop
ment, makes for the exclusion OF liquor.
There is no such thing as the two being
brought together without the effect; they
must be separated. And which is the most
reasonable TO do, which is most consistent
with ethical and Christian consideration, TO
jug the man or to jug the rum? We can tax
the people and build asylums and put the
iuebriates in and keep them there, or we can
do what is infinitely better, we can put their
bane far from them and let them go about
as good and useful citizens to be blessing
to their home and friends, ami not a per-
petual curse. Moreover, this latter course
has the advantage over all others; it will
cure and permanently cure three-thirdS OF
such cases, and in generations TO come, will
weed out the chief inherited proclivities to
this, as almost to every other Graz. Whas

dark-colored beetles, less than quarter
of an inch long, having on the back spots
and stripes of white aud red.
These beetles fly out of the windows
in spring, and, as have lately noticed,
flock in great numbers to the early cro-
cuses and tulips of the gardens. They
prefer, especially, the light-colored va
rieties, being found in a tulip bed under
observation almost exclusively on the
white and yellow flowers. From this
small bed, containing less than four
dozen tulips, we gathered in a week more

WORK OF A Rt,M.cuRsEp MAN,

A man living at Gardiner, Maine, shot
his wife recently AMI then committed sui
eide. A week previous to the shooting the
man came home drunk and drove his wife
and two children from their home. She
went TO her sisters house, and her husband
came here to see her on the night of the
tragedy. He told his wife that he was going
away and he wanted to give her something
and ask her question.
She replied 'If you have question to
ask go ahead but whatever you have to give
me you can keep; / do not want it,"
He said. II am going away and you go
with me-" He Immediately fired at her,
hitting her in the left side just below the
heart. She ran into the front room. Her
sister came to the door, and tue murderer
told her to get out OF his way as he did not
want to hurt her. She started to close the
door, when he fired one shot into the room;
nearly hitting his little daughter. Then he
turned tho revolver toward his body and
shot himself.

TEMPERANCE.


The agitation caused by DR.. Rainstord's
advocacy of the church establishing saloons
Tor the sale Of intoxicating liquor, calls TO
mind an incident related Of DR.. John Pier

ago. In the basement was stored large
number OF barrels of liquor, and some wag,
passing by the church, wrote the following
lines upon the door;

There is a spirit of love and a spirit Of woe
The spirit above is the spirit divine

The activity in gold mining in and about

The 7-30 three-year notes, whose circulation as
currency Is most secuted, were outstanding on the
every dollar of which legal tender for its face
value under the terms of the law ITO the same ex-
tent as United States notes."
Secretary Fessenden's report of Deem
Der 6, 1864, says he caused to be paid out
to the soldiers in the field over $4,000, 900
of these 7-30 notes at one time.
"And," says the report, "the Secretary
has great satisfaction in stating his belief
that the disposal thus made was not only
relief to the Treasury, but proved benefit
to the recipients, in affording them safe
and valuable investment and an easy
mode of transmitting funds to their fam
ilies."
Mr.. Hotchkiss, of New York, July %,
1866, in debate in the House, said:
We have now in circulation about 81 000, 900, 900
Of paper currency, exclusive of the SOo,OooOOo Of
1905, which pass from hand to hand as circulate
ing medium to great extent
Mr.. Morrill,, of Maine, stated in a speech
in the House, March 16, 1866
That the banks held immense Of interest
bearing notes during the maturity of interest, and
were disposed to flood the country with them after
interest had been realized.
Hon. W. Loughridge, of Iowa, April 8,
1874, in the House, said:
During the war the volume of currency was
largely increased from time to time, until at its
close the amount in circulation, including the
1905 and all the different issues which served the
use of currency, was about Sl,7O00O00O and this
amount had been up to the close OF the war con-
fined to the States not in rebellion.
Hon. VIM. d. Kelly, Republican mem
Der of Congress from Philadelphia, in the
House of Representatives, February 10,
1879, said:
The 10000 compound interest notes we're
outstanding December, 1865 and were legal ten

In June, 1890, Senator Plumb continued
the discussion of this subject, as follows:

the discussion of this subject, as follows:
Let us see, therefore, how much money
Is available for actual use among the
people. From the total of 1850 600, 900,
arrived at as above, must be deducted an
average of $3.50, 100000, which the Treas
ury always keeps on hand, and about
which something has heretofore been said
in the debate on this bill, and that leaves,
as the maximum which can by any pos
sibility be used, $1,30O,0OO,OOO. There
ought, in fairness, to be deducted from
this $150,O00,000, error in estimate of
gold in the country, which would reduce
the money outside the treasury to $1,15O,-
100000. From this is to be subtracted
the $600,O00,000 kept as reserve, as before
computed, leaving balance of $3.50 OOO,-
600, which is available for delivery or use
in the transaction of the business of all
the people, or trife over So per capita.
But the force of my argument is not ma
terially weakened by conceding the gold
coin to be as estimated by the Treasury
Department, which would leave in actual
circulation $7OO,OOO,OO0. In order to
make up this amount all doubt must be
resolved in favor of the Treasury and
against the people, both the doubt as to
the amount of lost and destroyed notes
and that as to the gold supply. If l were
deciding this case upon what I consider
the best evidence, would be bound to
say that l believed the money in actual
circulation did not much, if at all, exceed
$500,000,O00. Upon this narrow founda-
ton has been built the enormous struc-
ture of credit of which have spoken. 1t
is the greatest of the kind that was ever
built, because it was built by the best
people that ever built anything. Over
twenty thousand millions of debts, the
enormous and widely extended business
of sixty-fve millions of people, all rest
upon and must be served by volume of
currency which must seem to the most
veteran financier as absolutely and dan
gerously small
