PLANT FOR A HEDGE.

The Usage orange will not do we'll

deeply In the winter. 1t will winter

be attacked by the mice which hide
for shelter iu the bottom of the hedge
under the snow and eat the bark OF
the stems, of which they arc extreme
ly fond. This, of course, kills the
plants. A good plant for hedge IN
the North is the white spruce. which
is most hardy and quite ornamental.
1t also bears up the weight of the
snow without breaking down as o
weaker plant will do. Where the
snow is not SO heavy, the arbor vitae
or white cedar makes beautiful hedge
when it is properly grown and pruned.
No hedsS will be satisfactory unless
the land is made rich aud thoroughly
well pIowed as if for crop and is
kept free from weeds and cultivated
as garden is until the plants arc
well established. And then the hedge
is to be pruned and MANFRED and

A West Australian, writing in the
Mark Lane Express, says: al know
a farmer who kept his corn stacks
clear of mice by hanging sardino tins
on them containing portion of water
in which he had put small quantity
of arsenic aud boiled for CONSIDER
able time. That gave the water q
slightly sweet taste, aud the mice
drank il freely, and might be seen in
tho morning hanging or lying on the
ends of the straw. l should think,
by judicious management, it might be
used in the fields with great effect.

quantity of arsenic, but | assume any

ports in It's experiments on insects
that twelve rose bushes of different
varieties wero placed in the insectary
greenhouse last April, and as they
were infested with plant lice and rcd
spiders those insects were allowed TO
multiply until the lice literally covered
every green twig and more or less of
the surface Of the leaves. The red
spiders also had become exceedingly
numerous on the leaves.
A pailful of kerosene emulsion was
prepared, and each rose bush was in
verted aud dipped into it and held
there about quarter Of a minute, or
long enough to allow the emulsion to
reach every insect on the bush. In
immersing it in this wa, the pot was
hold in the left hand with the right
hand over the top, to prevent the
earth from falling out. An examine
ton of the bushes two days later
failed TO reveal single plant louise or
red spider, and none appeared on
them during the remainder of the sea-
son, thus proving that the work was
thorough and cfleciual. When rose
bushes are too large TO be treated In
this way they may be showercd.
The Hatch station prepares kerosene
emulsion in the following manner:
One quarter of pound of common
bar soap is dissolved in two quarts of
boiling water, and while still hot four
quarts of kerosene oil are added, the
whole mixture being then churncd
through small hand force pump,
with small nozzle turned into the
pail. This churning must be coniin-
ned about five minutes, until tho whole
forms a creamy white mass, which
becomes jellylike when cool. Care
must be taken to have the solution of
soap hot when the kerosene ia added
to it, and the churning done. but it
must not be near fire.
Before applying the Kerosene emul-
sion to plants it must be diluted with
water in the proportion of one quart
of the emulsion to nine quarts of
water, which must be thoroughly
mixed. The above will make sixty
quarts of the insecticide ready for
use. The emulsion will keep for
long time without injury, and may be
diluted when needed for use. This
insecticide is ono of the best substances
for the destruction of vernin on do
nestle animals aud henhouscs. -

ADVICE TO FARM EANDs.

When you have secured a good
place learn the condition of The farm
and household regulations. says the
National Stockman and Farmer.
Know your place and always be in it.
Do not be inquisitive about the private
affairs of the family, and be careful
how you talk of them 10 outsiders.
Some things may not exactly suit you !;
therefore you win do best not to be
forward in making complaints. Think
of the time when you will have charge
of farm and be at the head of a
family. You may discover much now
that you should then initiate, much
that you should avoid, aud much that
will suggest new ideas. 1t will be
best not to have much debate with
your employer about the best way
of doing any work. While you may
think you have a better method than
this, you will give better satisfaction
by yielding to him. Treat all the fam
lily with respect, and for the time feel
as if you were one of them as far as
your position allows. Politeness con-
sists In attention to trifles, and by this
attention you viii gain respect and
earn for yourself reputation that
will be invaluable.

THE FERMENrATIoNs OF MILK.

The above is the title of pamphlet
prepared by Professor II. W. Coun
and published by authority of the Sec
rotary of Agriculture, in which the
changes undergone in milk are dis
cussed, and the causes indicated, with
special reference to the practical APP
plication of information to the dairy
interest From this treatise of seventy
five pages only such items will be here
given as it is thought will be of inter-
est to persons handling milk.
Primarily, it is said that all The fer
mentations of milk, even the common
souring, are due to the contaminated n
of the milk with something from the
exterior, after it is dra wn from the
COW. The souring of ik is a fer
mentative pro cess produced by organ
isms getting In to the milk after milk
ing. The Tactic organisms of various
kinds are SO numerous and so com
mon everywhere that no practical
method can be devised for keeping
them out of the milk. The person
who handles milk must, therefore,
recognize their presence in it as in
evitable, and tarn his attention 10
me ans Of reducing them to the small
est number and keeping their growth
within the smallest possible compass.
This is best accomplished by abso
tute cleanliness and low temperature.
The great source of these organisms is
in the unclean vessels into which the
milk is drawn, and the filth which
surrounds the cow. Equally import
ant with cleanliness is the necessity of
cooling the milk to low temperature
as soon as 1t is drawn from the COW.
When thus treated the bacteria growth
Is checked at once and will not begin
again with much rapidity until the
milk has become warmed once more.
When drawn from the COW, milk is
Of high temperature, and, indeed, at
just the temperature at which most
bacteria will grow the most rapidly.
Hence the Importance of early cooling
TO as low temperature as is practl-
cable.-[New York World.
