How to Plant Onions.

A correspondent inquiries in the Country
Gentleman 81 wish 10 put out about two
acres In white onion sets, and would like tc
know the best manner of planting that is
how far apart rows should be, what distance
between sets, the best fertilizer to use and
about what quantity per acre" The writef
Is .tbus answered. No crop needs higher
manurDg. 1t needs the richest ground, ard
then also the highest of feeding. II the
ground were very rich TO start with. fertil-
izer with large per cent of nitrate OF soda In
1t would be likely to give success. Several
years ago, when we depended on commercial
fertilizers only our success In raising them
was only moderate, but then the land was but
moderately rich and we did not use nitrate of
soda. Rows twelve to fifteen inches apart In
the row. From six to eight bushels per acre,
as they differ In s,ze Plant very early"

The New School Law.

| Principal Edward Conant In the Opinion.
The basis of our new school law Is the to WI
system of schools, which is not new. 1t Il
nearly 80 years since Horace Mann found thu
town system In use In Massachusetts, and de
clared that the schools In these towns were
better than In those using the district system
Since that period the town system has be-
come universal in Massachusetts,; for severa
years 1t has been used In nearly all the towns
OF New Hampshire; for nearly 40 years II
has been the only system used In Penpsylva.
MIA; 2Otowns in Vermont now have the
town system ana have had 1t for periods OF
from five to 20 years.
Now, after long discussion that system has
been adopted for Vermont by the representa-
tives of the people; It Is the only system by
which outside the incorporated districts, free
schools can be matntalned. A system ar
proved 30 widely and so long Is worthy of a
fair trial. 1t is worthy OF a fair trial too for
what 1t promises, more equal distribution
OF the cost of schools, mora reariy equal
school privileges and better schools for all
This promise ~ not based on theory, bu'
on experience. Randolph In our o WI county
has had the tewn system for 10 years. It.
adoption wss followed by these results,
school taxes are equal for all parts of tn
town. the number OF weeks of school is equal
for all neighbOrhoods. school houses are kept
In better repair and sre better furnished and
good telchers are kept longer than formerly
Opposition to the system which was strong al
first has died away.
The new law Il worthy of fair trial be-
cause of the importance of the interests In
voved. The success of our children and the
prosperity of our towns depend in great
measure on the efficiency of our schools.

paint your house with Chiffon
Paint than any other kind. You
will use fewer gallons Of it than
any paint ever made, for every
shade is mixed and ground in pure
linseed oil seven times, and there
fore will cover more surface than
a paint made in an ordinary way.
Not only will it cover more, but it
will last for years if it is applied to
a dry surface. Never allow your
painter to work over wet wood.
You are sure to be disappointed.
If the pores OF the wood are filled
with water, the oil cannot enter.
Better not have your house painted
at all than to have it done badly.

FARM AND HOME.
Caring for Fruit Trees.

1t is not the economical and intelligent fruil
grower who props the limbs of his trees when
the trees are overloaded with fruit. The
proper plan is to thin out the fruit, and II
should be done while the fruit is small. When
tree bends with the crest weight of extra
fruit 1t IS compelled to do extra duty in sup
plying food while the fruit will not be as good
as when but a partial crop ia borne on the
tree. Thinning the fruit gives more attrac'
tive fruit and better prices.
