peaceful as it is this morning there

this morning that the Governor of Ken

"POlSONED" APPLES.
The silly Cutlery Against American Fruit
by English Papers.

by English Papers.
The recent excitement in England
against American apples, about which
inquiry has been made by some of our
readers, was originated by the Horti-
,ultural Times of London, and copied
by many of the prominent daily and
other journals. 1t was apparently
based on the common practice in this
country of spraying young fruit with
arsenites for the destruction of insects,
by which the fruit, which before was
distorted and deformed by them, was
made smooth and fair. The London
papers referred to appear to take it
for granted that the sprayed fruit has
absorbed the poison, and SO much of it
that it is unsafe to buy any more Amer
lean apples, and that those who eat
them devour dangerous quantities of
arsenic. The absurdity of this posi-.
ton is distinctly shown when it is
stated that the largest quantity of
Paris green (which is only part
arsenic) used in spraying. is only one
pound in 200 gallons of water, or over
three hogsheads, making only one
part of arsenic in about 1000 parts of
water. In spraying, not one part of
the water in ten ever reaches the fruit,
but covers the leaves or drops TO the
ground, and not more than n single
drop enters the calyx. and OF this
single drop only one-seven- thousand 9TH
part is arsenic-enough to kill young
insect which weighs only two-hsn-
dred-thousandth part the weight OF q
man. 1t is therefore necessary for q
man, to receive any injury from this
arsenic. to eat at least six bushels OF
apples ut q single sittingl
But the Paris green Is insoluble, and
does not enter the fruit at ALL and this
minute portion is all washed off by the
first shower, as DR.. Kedzie showed
with apples heavily sprayed on pur-
pose, where not the slightest vestige Of
the poison could be detected by the
most rigid test II our English friends
had been in the way of receiving pota-
toes from America some years ago,
which had been treated with Paris
green, they might with more propriety
have raised an excitement against
them. for larger quantities of the poison
were used for the striped beetle, al
though it could never penetrate the
soil to reach the tubers, and could
never enter them when it got there.
from it's insoluble nature. The truth
is that millions of persons eat such po-
tatoes every year without any harm,
and tens of thousands eat sprayed ap-
Piles annually without injury. The
whole matter, as presented in the
English journals, naturally recalls the
account Of the philosopher who wro te
an elaborate treatise to prove that q
man could write better on any subject
by knowing some thing about it-Coun-

FARM AND GARDEN.
A POLE CORN CRIB.

The Most Economical in Sections Where
Timber Is Not Scarce.
In such pen, if properly made, corn
will keep as well as in any crib or
house that can be devised The pen
should not be more than eight feet
wide. and two feet less width is yet
better. The length is determined by
the desired capacity, or the length Of
the poles to be had. The poles should
not be large, and notched only
deep enough to prevent their rolling,
and to bring them near enough togeth-
er to prevent the corn rolling out; for
II the poles are large, or brought close
together, the circulation of air will not
be free enough. Cribs are commonly
made too close; although the cracks be-
tween the poles be two inches wide.
not enough rain to do any appreciable
damage will beat in, because the poles
will project out over the cracks. A
foundation may be made by laying
large logs on the ground; but this is
objectionable, as the rats will burrow
under the logs. A better foundation is
made by setting blocks in the ground,
below the line of frost, and high
enough to bring the floor of the crib at
least eighteen inches above the ground.

30 that the corn may not absorb
moisture from beneath, and that the
cats and terrier may have a chance at
the rats and mice. However. the rats
will not infest a crib under which there
is plenty of light Make the crib on
high ground with enough slope to drain
well, taking care that the foundation
is level The floor may be made of
puncheons. Trim off the slivers from
the upper side; otherwise it will be
difficult matter to shovel out the corn.
A doorway is made by cutting through
three or four of the lower poles, mailing
a board against their ends to hold them
In place. A door is hinged to the out
side of the crib, and as the corn is
thrown in boards are placed inside the
crib across the opening. If they pass
beyond the opening only an inch at
each end. they can be removed easily
when it is desired to take out the corn.
The roof is made of clapboards or of
they should be just long enough tc
reach across the crib. and the weights
placed on them should be put on their
ends If the boards project, they will
split in from the end to the point
where they rest on the crib. 1t is bet
ter to weight than to nail the boards
down. since they must be turned each
year to avoid warping.
A pole pen can be made with . drive
way in the middle, which can be used
for a wagon or machinery shed most of
the year. The cribs run up to the roof,
and the driveway is rooted over into a
loft for the storage of hoes, forks
rakes and other light tools. The win
ter months furnish opportune time for
cutting and hauling the necessary tim

A LESSON IN MANNERS.
Uncle Theodore Has an Encounter wit
Farmer Tumbledown.

Uncle Theodore Has an Encounter with
Farmer Tumbledown.
At one of the farmers institutes,
Theodore Louis, the veteran teacher
of hogology. had been relating to an
interested audience of farmers how he
bred, fed and marketed his hogs, Civ
ing minute details of the work, tending
brood sows, cooking squashes, clean
ing out the pens, supplying bedding
and everything pertaining TO the bust
ness. AS he came down from the plat
form farmer with unkempt hair and
beard, slouched hat, greasy frock and
overalls, the latter tucked into pair
of dirty, coarse boots. me: him and
said:
"Mr. Louis, do you pretend to say
you feed your own hogs?"
''Oh, yes! When am at home"
"And clean out the manure?"
Certainly" said M. Louis, with
smile
"Well," said Farmer Tum bledown,
with a sneer, when a man with stiff
hat, a black suit of clothes, gold
chain and shiny shoes tells me he
feeds hogs and cleans out the pen, /
don't believe him"
This rather nettled the good-natured
champion of improved Swine hus-
bandry." and he said:
my friend, did you learn anything
new of me, to-day?'
"Oh. yes" said Tumbledown, "all
you said about breeding and feeding
was good, but don't believe a man
who dresses like you ever feeds hogs "
There was an interested group of lis
tensrs gathered by this time. and. with
q twinkle in his eyes, Uncle Theodore
said:
Now, my friend, let me teach you
something else. II you want men to
respect you and your calling, you must
show some respect for it yourself. You
ought to have enough ambition and
self-respect so that when you go to
town or to attend an institute you
would black your boots, put on de-
cent suit of clothes and clean your.
self up"
The crowd seemed to appreciate the
situation, and Tum bledown had BUSH
ness som ewhere else.
Il is not the farming but it is farmers
like Tum bledown that cause some
people to speak lightly of farmers.

farming that needs to make boor Of a

Manure should Not B, Exposed.

Manure of all kinds does better
service when not exposed. 1t should
be properly sheltered until used For
an experiment two acres were ma
nured with dressing from barn yard
which had been exposed to the wealth
er, and another two acres alongside
with dressing which had been sheltered
from the weather. The same quantity
of manure was applied to each piece Of
of land and the whole planted in pota-
toes. The yield on the part dressed
with sheltered manure was nearly
twice as large as that on the part
dressed with the manure which had
been exposed in the yard This differ
ence did not cease with the crops the
first year. The following year the
whole was sown to wheat and the
land which had been dressed with
sheltered manure produced a much
larger yield than the other part-Farm
