ABOUT FRUIT GROWING.
Success Requires Continued Diligence

Success Requires Continued Diligence,
Intelligence and Skill.
In riding through any part of the
country where fruit can be successfully
grown, the contrast between fine crops
and partial or entire failure may be
frequently observed. One shows the
effect of skill, the other the result of
neglect On one hand, orchards are
loaded with fine crops of excellent
fruit; on the other partly dead trees
have nothing but small and scrubby
apples. In small-fruit plantations
weeds have had the ascendance; straw
berry patches are noted for their sickly
and winter killed appearance. The
owners admit general disappointment
and failure. But there are other own
ers who give a very different report.
Their small fruits and Strawberries
have escaped winter killing by care
fully applied winter protection. Their
rule has been to kill weeds "at what
ever cost" by never allowing them to
grow. They have found the labor very
small to destroy them with a steel rake
or fine harrow passing every week be-
fore they come up, compared with the
hard work to root out the rank mass
when foot high. In a neighborhood
where both kinds of management pre-
vailed, lived the owner of hundred
acre farm, a portion of which was de-
voted to Embarrassing generally. His
trees had generous cultivation; large
part of the manure made on the place
was carefIilJ applied broadcast to the
fruit trees and to the small fruits. The
result of this, long continued, was that
the annual sales from all the different
kinds amounted literally to thousands
of dollars annually. But this success
required continued diligence, inteLi.

CARE OE GRAPEVINES.
What to Do to Prevent the Appearance
of Rot Next Year.

What to Do to Prevent the Appearance
of Rot Next Year.
That the ravages of grape rot have
not been as severe as formerly in some
sections is confirmed by the statements
of many prominent growers of grapes,
but the reasons assigned vary, the ma
jority of growers being inclined to the
belief that the years 1891 and 1892 were
unfavorable to the disease. Other
growers affirm that the use Of the
Bordeaux mixture has aided in pre-
venting the ravages of the rot by de-
stroying the spores to a great extent.
In some sections of New Jersey, how
ever, there have been but few cases of
were before attacked, although the
vines had not been sprayed with fungi
cides at any time.
1t is now considered a fact that the
rot may be prevented by the use of the
proper remedies, and the fact has been
demonstrated by treating selected vines
in vineyards that were affected. In all
cases where the fungicides were used
the disease was either eradicated or its
effects mitigated, and it is also OBJ
served that by a vigorous treatment
the disease NAV be so controlled as to
do but little damage the succeeding
season, which gives promise of its be-
ing entirely eradicated in few years,
The results of next years experiments
will throw much additional light on
the matter, as the dryness or dampness
of the season controls the effects of the
rot to some extent. There are also
varieties of grapes that are more ex-
empt than others, such thick-skinned
variety as the Ives Seeding escaping
attack, although growing in rows adj
joining varieties that were rotting rap
idly.
Prominent growers recommend that
the work of preventing rot next year
should begin during the winter or even
in the fall. The ground should be care.
fully raked over and the debris burned
in order to destroy as many of the
spores as possible, and lime should then
be applied to the soil on the surface,
the lime to remain until spring. 1t is
suggested that the lime be slaked with
boiling water until fine, and every
square inch of the soil given busting
Of the lime. Early in the spring, be.
fore the buds appear and after the vines
have been trimmed, the Bordeaux mix
ture should be applied to the vines; and
it is claimed that the best results have
been obtained by this early treatment,
especially if the Bordeaux mixture is
applied in thick condition (of the con-
dition of ordinary whitewash) to the
vines. The mixture should then be
applied at frequent times during the
season.
To prevent rot the spores must be
destroyed or prevented from securing
a Judgment on the vines or fruit, and
the work of keeping down the disease
next year should begin now. There
should b no Accommodations under the
vines, as the grapes that have fallen
have already carried with them the
spores (seeds) for next years rot. 1t
is true that the spores cannot be COM
pletely destroyed, but vigorous and
timely work, especially by a whole
neighborhood, may result in securing
at least fair crop the next season
with prospects of improvement there
after.-Troy On. W Times.

THE CHOLERA.

1t has now been demonstrated that the
ileum or lower small intestine is the main
seat of the pathological changes caused by
cholera. What is true of the cholera bacil-
lus is true of the most contagious diseases.
Many Of these parasites can be taken into
the stomach without doing any injury. 1t
is only when they find in the lower in
teStneS material upon which they can
feed and in which they can breed that
they do the damage which ultimately ex-
tends all over the system. The remedy is
plain. 1t is to remove from the system all
waste material thus preventing not only
cholera but fevers and contagious maladies
of every sort. The Laxative Gum Drops

Beds Are Unknown and the People Sleep
In Hammocks-
Beds as we understand them, are I'M
known, but hammocks are hung every
where, in parlors and halls and dining
rooms, and along the whole length of
the veranda, to catch every breeze that
Is blowing, so that any number of un-
expected guests can be "slung up" in a
single house without inconvenience.
Except in the most expensive residences
che front rooms only are ceiled, and
latticed windows are much more COM
mon than glass. Another thing that
strikes the stranger is the peculiar APP
pearance of the people as compared
with those he has seen in other parts
of the country. The regularly de-
scended Portuguese and Africans of
course do not differ greatly from their
brethren and sisters in other parts; but
they are few here, while the Indian
race predominates In Para, as in no
other city, the aboriginals of Brazil
may be seen both in pure blood and in
every possible degree of mixture with
whites and blacks in every strata OF
society. They occupy the highest gov
ernment positions, own the grandest
mansions and finest estates, and figure
as capitalists and servants, priests and
politicians, soldiers, sailors, profess
sional men, street peddlers, bellies and
beaux. The most beautiful woman in

Hogs In the Feed Lot.

A writer for the Ohio Farmer says:
when hogs 60 into the feed lot, where
their roofing will do no injury, all
rings should be removed We know
men that fail in their efforts to fatten
hogs, because men are ignorant of the
cause of the unhealthy condition OF
their hogs. In the shipping lots at our
railroad station we once noticed a lot
of hogs that were out of condition. In
looking for cause, we found that all
had sore noses, on account of rings set
too deep with the joint of the rings in
the flesh. Doubtless the owner thought
the greater punishment he could infiict
the better protection he would have for
bis pasture, and probably never
thought a sore nose would prevent
thrift"
