CABBAGE WITHOUT TRANSATLANTIC.
Ofall the crops raised on the farm none
depends so much on naturally rich land
as cabbage The best soil is a deep,
black, loose loan, we'll drained, such as
is found in the valleys of the smaller
streams. 1t is plowed in the fail, eight
OF ten inches deep, in narrow lands.
The first ten days of April is our time
for sewing the seed. The ground IS har-
rowed only to level it, as the action of
frost during winter has reduced it to the
hneness Of ashes. It is then marked off
three feet each way with a corn marker.
With hoe enough soil is drawn up at
each crossmark to make a small, fiat bill,
little above the general level. A dozen
seeds are dropped on each and pressed
down by the foot to bring the seed in
close contact with the soil, no covering
being necessary. A day or two before
the plants appear above ground we press
twice through the rows with a small
tooth cultivator as close as possible with
out throwing any soil on the hills. This
car be easily done as the tracks of the
marker serve as a guide.
The second cultivation is given when
tne plants are an inch high, and should

arrow. The field should be thoroughly
cleaned of weeds by the time the plants
are two inches high. Discretion must

Nampa Leader,
The following letter was received
by one of our citizens, through the

caused the recipient considerable

guage is Inadequate to express the

would pursue such a course as is
advocated by the writer, and that

be fact that Peters does not get

yet we have it from good authority,
that he is willing and does a reas-
enable amount. He has never to
our knowledge called o" our citi-
zens for assistance, although his
table is not supplied with all the
delicacies of the season, yet we
understand that the family have
sutliciency. AS regards the boy, it
is the universal opinion that he is
fit subject for reform school, as
he has been caught in one or two
transactions, that if pushed would
send him to place of that kind.
But we do not believe that the old
man should be blamed for the
short coming of the boy, or that
measures such as are threatened
in the letter be used.

While the soil should be rich, il il
easily possible To have it too rich, and
the plants make too heavy a growth Of =
wood at the expense OF fruit. Potash
fertilizers are especially valuable. Old
vines, pieces of leather aud wood ashes
can nearly always be applied with bene-
fit. With a young vine care must be
taken at first not TO allow it TO mature
too much fruit. Nearly all young, thrifty
vines will set more fruit than it should
be allowed 90 mature. The remedy il To
thin out some after the fruit has set. A.
good Sprinkling of air-slacked lime or

SOUTHERN PROGRESS.

Record of Industries Established
During the Past Three Months.
The Manufacturers Record, Of Baltimore,
says that during July. August and Saptem-
Der there have been organized in the South
564 new industrial enterprises. During the
corresponding portion of last year the nnn-
Der of new enterprises was rs, or 164 more
than this year. The total for the first nine
months of this year is 20S6 new establish.
ments, compared with 2472 for the same
period of last year. The smaller number of
new enterprises established in the South
during the past three months does not, &C.
cording to the above authority, indicate an
unsatisfactory condition of Industrial affairs
in that section, but, on the contrary, it
shows an exceedingly healthy state of af-
fairs. inasmuch as the people of the South
are gauging their work by their means.
During the past summer Southern manUfHc-
turers, merchants and planters have been
reducing their expenditures rather than in
curing obligations beyond their ability to
settle promptly.

KEEP CLOSE WATCH on THE SHEEP.

1t is a provetb among shepherds,
'Count your sheep every time you see
them" This is the only safeguard
against trouble, and when one is missing
it should be hunted up without a
minutes delay. When the weather is
hot the sheep are subject to diarrhea,
which quickly becomes dysentery, and
this is infectious and hardly durable.
A sheep thus suffering is apt to be fly
blown, and there is no more miserable
sight than such sheep. Any amount
of trouble is repaid by an escape from
such calamity. Medicine alone will
not stop an attack of diarrhel; absti-
nence from food, until it can be digested
by the restored stomach is as necessary
as medicine, and no astringents should be
used for this trouble. A mild laxative
and mucilaginous food ere the best
remedies. --American Agriculturist.

BRoADcAsTISG AND DRILLING SEED.

BROADCAsTISG AND DRILLING SEED.
A year ago an experiment was tried at
the Rhode Island Agricultural Station
comparing broadcast and drill seeding.
The same was repeated this year, divid-
ing every plot, sowing the north half
broadcast aud the south half with an
Empire grain drill, using the same
amount of seed in each case. The
broadcast oats came up irst aud gave q
little better appearance all through the
growing season, but the harvest showed
an increase over the drilled oats OF thirty
seven pounds per acre.-New York

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.


While oil cake is Injurious to mares in
foal corn is not.
A poultice of fresh Stacked lime and
lard is said TO be sure cure Tor lumpy
jaw.
Knec-sprung horses should be shod
with shoe the heel of which is thicker
than the toes.
1t is poor policy to turn the horses out
in the pasture at nights and let them Sc
cure their own food.
The rule of express companies in feed
ing horses is ten pounds of hay aud four
quarts of oats per meal.
Prepare suitable sheds and constant
supply of pure water, before you ar
range to go very extensively into the
sheep business for the winter.
Labor-saving machinery is a drawback
instead of an aid to the farmer, unless
the labor thus released is turned again
into other productive CHAN uels.
A road tax may be burdensome, but
in fact it is not near SO much so as the
tax daily imposed and paid by every
farmer who hauls produce to market over
poor roads.
When buying trees for your orchard
this fall, be sure to learn how they have
been propagatcd. If not grated on
whole roots of seedlings, have nothing
to do with them.
Exercise more care this season in GULL
ing out the ewes. Retain only the best
for breeding purposes, use the best sira
you can obtain, and make the flock pay
even better the coming year than you
did this.
The smaller industries Of the farm
often pay better ratio Of profit than
the large ones. Give attention to the
fowls, the bees and the garden, and the
aggregate profit from the three viii be a,
snug little sum.
In order to distribute manure evenly,
so that all portions Of the field will DO

1t is not economy, although it may save
a little labor TO throw the manure out In

ests of agriculture should Lot be under

learned farmer. But practice, in COM
bination with science. furnishes the best
means for the end desired.
Those who have poultry to sell this
year will be sure to get a good price TOR
them, for there is none in store. And
those who know how to raise the best
poultry will get almost any price their
consciences will allow them to ask.
The best way to save the valuable
droppings OF the hen house is to gather
them up daily aud cover them with dry
earth or gypsum TO prevent the escape OF

not be used, as they set the ammonia

The author of Common Sense in the,

CHURNING By MACHINERY.

Where the churning of the cream is
done by hand it entails a most arduous
task upon some member OF the farm
household, and in many cases it falls to
the lot of the housewife. During the
summer, where from three to five cows
are kept, there is half an hour of this
heavy work every day. There Is often
a large dog watching the operation of
churning that he may obtain his usual
fill of buttermilk. A treadmill can be
obtained for few dollars, and the dog
made to do the work, aud you may
watch the operation or devote your time
to other household duties. With the
improved, or even the common powers,
a dog, weighing fifty pounds, can do the
churning or the cream from five cows,
and not injure himself. Such work in
hot weather should be done early in the
morning while it is cool. The butter
churned then will be tirmer. If the dog
is treated kindly, and petted, he will
gladly do the work and be ready at the
cali, or appear as soon as preparations
are observed for the operation. Calves,
sheep and goats arc often used in tread
mills, but the dog is the most clearly and
is best adapted to the work. Human life
is too short to spend much of it manip-
ulating the churn dasher, especially
when other power is so plentiful. An
attachment can be placed on the wind
mill, but Gains NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

PROGRESS IN DEALING WITH FRUIT INSECTS

PROGRESS IN DEALING WITH FRUIT INSECTS
DR.. G. Y. Riley read at the late meet
ing of the American Pathological Society
an instructive paper on "Recent Ad-
vances in Dealing with Insects and Affect
ing Fruits" In this he discusses the
methods of combating the plum cur
culio, codling moth, red scale, fluted
scale, and other injurious insects, giving
the result Of recent experiments on those
insects. Contrary to the expressed opin-
iors of many horticulturists, DR.. Riley
questions whether more injury is zone
to. day to our fruits than was done fifty
or orc hundred years ago. In fact, it is
patent that with the advance made Of
late years in our methods Of warfare
against these fruit insects, less injury re-
iatively is done; but az the area Of fruit
culture increases, SO does the aggregate
of in jury and also the number of species
that we have 20 contend with. He
warned pomologists to be on their guard
ageinst two foreign insects, likely soon
to appear in this Countrywide peach
coratitis, a sub-tropical insect, rescm-
bling the apple maggot, which is eS-
tremely destructive to the pcacl crop IF
Bermuda, and likely to be troublesome
if it once becomes established il Florida
and Georgia, and the japanese peach
fruit worm, which is allied to our cod
ling moth, and in some seasons damages
ninety per cent. of the peach crop Of
Japan. He suggested that provision be
made for the inspection, at ports of entry,
of fruits and plants received from any
part of the world from which we know
danger threatens Farmer.
