DUBLIN, Dec. 81. The financial

to-day by an explosion. The dis

by dynamite, and the Fenian party,

about the explosion. AS a matter

as to the real cause of the wreck

though the widest rumors are
ahoat. No one was injured,
so far as ascertained, by the
explosion. The police are hard at
work trying to find out the cause of
the explosion. At first it was
thought that it was caused by leak
age of gas. This, however, ha:
been found not to be the cause. AL
the gas connections have been fount
to be in good order. A number 0
workmen were employed about tn
castle at the time of the explosion
which shattered a number of win

Raising Tomatoes In. Winter.

The tomato is fast becoming an i'm.
portant winter crop, being forced tc
bearing in greenhouses by close and
constant attention. L. II. Bailey, OF
the New York Cornell Station, states
that tomato house should have all
the sunlight possible. Boxes, eight
teen inches square, placed about a foot
apart may contain four plants, which
may be trained and pruned. The
roots should be at least five feet from
the root, and when affected by the
nematode root-gall, the plants should
be destroyed, the soil removed for
sailing and freezing, and the beds or
boxes washed with I've. The young
plants require most water and the soil
should be thoroughly wet each time.
A brisk bottom heat is best, and the
air should be from 60 degrees to IS
degrees f at night, and from 70 de-
grees to 80 degrees in the day, and
even higher in full sunshine. In
about four months the plants will
flower aud must be artifically pollin-
ated to prevent small, one-sided fruit.
At this time the air must be kept dry,
especially aboutnoon. A second crop
is obtained by trailing out shoots
from the base of old plants. The
winter blight sometimes seriously in
jures the plants. No remedy is
known, but the disease is being stud
led by the station. Removal of the
diseased plants, and thorough renoya-
ton of the greenhouse are recommend

DO not get ready TO run a winter
dairy and expect to make 1t pay
wholly on dry feed. Ensilagc and
the winter dairy are the complement
of each other.
The reason why gooseberry bushes
mildew in this country is because the
summer temperature of the soil is too
high. Protect the soil by mulching
and the mildew will be less injurious,
though even then spraying with sui
phur mixtures will be needed TO
insure entire exemption. Mulch the
gooseberry bushes at the beginning of
winter. That will keep the soil from
freezing deeply, besides holding the
moisture in it next season.
Peaches might be grown in many
places they are not if they were shell
tered upon the north and east from
the cold winds by an evergreen hedge
or by buildings or even high fence.
But when this is done it is equally
necessary to mulch well around each
tree as far as the roots extend, to pre-
vent warmth of the sun in the early
spring from starting them too early,
and subjecting the bud to chance of
being killed by later rosts.

HE BOUGHT HALF A cow.
A Bargain That Ended In Con
siderable Complications.

Bill Barnes came over to his son-in-
laws house last week and said
"John, do you want to buy half OF
cow"
GLOW much do you want for half?"
asked John.
"Ten dollars" answered Bill.
All right. Here's your money.
Guess you better write me out re-
ceipt.
Eyes; here you are. Now, l want
you to sign an agreement that you
will feed your half of the COW, will
you ?"
Certainly"
John signed the agreement and
Bill went off humming maggie Muir
phys Comrades"
Next day John went over to Bills
house.
"Hello, john" said Bill. "What do
you want over here ?"
"Come to get half the milk"
HALT the milk ?"
Yes; 1 own half of that cow, you
know"
Yes, I know but you don't get any
milk" ......
"Why?"
"iCause it was the front half of the
COW 1 sold YOU"
WHAT"
eyes, that's what. You don't get
any milk. 1 sold it all, any way.
There!"
"Well, I'll see all about that" and
John went home making the atmos-
phere feel blue.
About four hours later Bill came
over to Johns house and yelled:
"You, John Smith"
-"Wellw yelled back John.
"Do you want that cow to starve ?"
what do you mean?"
"You own the front half of that
COW and you've got to feed it, that's
all. I've got your agreement that you
would and"-
THE COW and You, too. You'll
find some food for her in the barn,
you blamed pirate. You darned-"
"WelI, you've got cheek"
II have? Think you have. What
do YOU mean?"
do you think I'm going to pack
fodder for your half Of that cow?"
ooh"
"And you just bring some water or
that COW will die of thirst"
Then Bill walked away.
Bill came limping over to Johns
house the next day.
"NWhat's the matter now" asked
John.
Matter enough" said Bill. "You
own the front half Of"
Hang it, yes so you say"
"Well, thai COW hooked me-"
"Oh, she did,"
YES"
"Well?"
"I'm thinking about suing you for
damages"
"Oh, are you?"
Yes, but I'm willing to compro-
mise"
"Ahw
"YeS. You give me $50 and your
half of the COW and 1 won't say any
thing about it."
After six hours of talk John paid
the money and the old man went
away happy.
