HORTICULTURAL HINTS.

NEVER make hills or beds in the gar
den. Level cultivation is the thing for
the garden.
THE springtime is best for planting
trees. Trees planted in the spring do
better, as a rule, than those that are
planted in the fall
COVER the garden plat with barn
yard manure, plow it under and top
dress it with rotten manure. That
treatment will make profitable veg
etable crop.
THE garden should have plenty of
manure. Do not attempt to raise veg
etables, which usually are great drain
upon the soil, without giving them
plenty of nourishment.
If within reasonable distance of a
market, a half acre fruit and vegetable
garden ought to bring to the farmer
from 500 to $500. Is there any other
half acre that will do as well?
THERE are comparatively few farm
ers who do not live near enough to n
town or city, or who do not have suffi
cient railroad communication with the
market, to make vegetable and fruit
growing pay.
IN selecting variety of small fruit
select the best producer and seller,
however tender it may be. If tender,
give it winter protection Fruit is
what is wanted and not something that
will live with neglect and produce lit
tic fruit. Farmers Voice

HOME GOWNS,

vet the Best Trimming.

ChevIot is the Popular Material and Vel
vet the Best Trimming.
A single but pretty indoor gown is of
diagonal cloth. 1t must be of light
weight, fine cheviot being the most
desirable goods
The skirt has n seam in the middle of
the front breadth and is perfectly
plain, with deep hem showing. The
bodice is unique, 1t has round yoke,
buttoning on the left shoulder. From
this point the full lower portion of the
waist is cascaded to depth of thirty
inches below the belt in the back. The
edge of the cascade is outlined with
narrow velvet ribbon, also the yoke
and collar and cuffs. A velvet belt con-
fines the fulness except in the front,
where the cascade hangs straight from
the yoke.
The prevalence of gowns with i'm
mense sleeves, velvet bretelles and
Spanish jackets trimmed with fur, has
created demand for loose cloaks which
can be put on without an entire loss of
ones temper and the utter destruction
of ones gown.
The long coat fills these requirements
and is, in addition, graceful and ele-
CANT wrap. 1t is of mode colored cloth,
with straps and cuffs of rich gold en-
broidery and yoke and side panel of
brown velvet. The front is straight
and slightly full, fastening on the hip
under an embroidered strap. The col
lar is of Russian sable, and band of
the fur extends across the foot of the
front.
Nothing is so full of possibilities as
the soft, shapeless felts, which are
shown by the milliuers this season. In
the hands of an artist they become tri-
umphs of skill, but otherwise they are
simply scarecrows, as can be seen in q
Twenty-third street crowd any day. A
French importation recently seen, how
ever, was real beauty In was in
vieux rose felt trimmed with a great
black velvet bow placed against the up
turned brim at one side. Black velvet
and tips were on the crown, and a
bunch of shaded pink heather nestled
under curve of the brim in the back.

TUBERCULOUS MILK.
A Serious Menace Against the Health OF
All Consumers.

A Serious Menace Against the Health of
All Consumers.
The important meeting held at Perth
to consider the question of tuberculosis
shows that the agriculturists of the
country are now waking up to a due
sense of the mischief done by this
dreaded scourge. With the resolution
unanimously adopted at that meeting
every fair-minded man will cordially
agree. If butcher buys an apparent
ly healthy animal at a full price, then
if it be found on the animal being
slaughtered that it is desirable in the
interests of the public health that the
carcass should be destroyed it is sim
ply matter of justice that the butcher
whose property the carcass is should be
duly compensated therefor. Still, as
Mr.. Fraser said it was to be regretted
that the action was not taken on broad
er lines. 1t is admitted on all hands
that much more serious menace
against the public health is involved in
the consumption of milk from tubercu-
lous COWS than there is in the con-
sumption of the flesh of tuberculous
animals, and that because the milk is
whereas the meat is mostly cooked and
the bacilli are destroyed by the process
of cooking. Now, in the dairy herds
there are often lots of cows which are
well known to be tuberculous. These
are the "wasters" or 'piners," in
which the Gaseous matter of the tuber-
cles instead of being localized in the
lungs, has broken up and been diffused
throughout the whole system. The
owners know that there is no use at
tempting to sell these cows in the fat
or dead-meat markets, and therefore
they are kept on giving milk as long as
possible, and in that way they are
spreading the disease all around them,
while no one can estimate the mischief
that may be done through the milk of
these tuberculous brutes being con-
sumed by young children. An immense
amount of good might be done if the
veterinary inspectors were empowered
TO put down" all such animals which
are known to be affected with this
most insidious disease, the owner re.
ceiving fair rate of compensation for
the animals so destroyed. Now that
pleuro and foot-and-mouth disease are
sc well out of the way, the board of
agriculture should boldly tackle this
dire disease, which is not only q most
serious menace against the health of
our stocks, but n serious menace
against the health of all consumers of
milk as well.-North British Agricul-
turist.

BROAD WAGON TIRES.
Their Use Improves Country Roads -
Preventing Ruts.

Nothing has copduced TO perma.

as the broad tires on our heavy wag.
ons. After the first broad tires were
introduced legislation helped the mat
ter along. A rebate on road tax was
given those who hauled heavy loads on
tires three and "a half inches wide.
An Improvement was Immediately
noticeable in the condition of the
track. Previous to shis, for many
years, the roads were full Of ruts dur.
ing the wet seasons. Even at times
when the surface was dry and hard q
rut would start under the continued
tread of the narrow tire. Every mar
row tire following, If under - heavy
load, acted as wedge and aided in
deepening the rut. Under these con
ditions the ruts were sometimes hor'
rible to contemplate, and they were
even worse to ride over. Several times

trot. Even when the road was familiar,
during the full light of day, one needed
to keep his eyes wide open and hi,
hand on the throttle (reins) to avoid 6
catastrophe.
About the time wide tires came into
use we had an old wagon that was in
fair condition. 1t was taken to oul
| blacksmith, who had q wheelwright in
business with him. They cut off the
spolles flush with inside of felloes ant
made new lemons. This made the
wheels a trifle smaller, but l like il
better on this account. The new fel
loes were made three and half inches
wide, and the tires three e-siHteenths o
an inch thick IL made the wheels
stronger and as good as new. This wa
about fourteen years ago The tire
have never been set since. We have
given 'the felloes good coat of linseet
oil two or three times, in order to pre-
serve them. AS to whether this causes
the wood to SWELL l am unable to say
nevertheless, the tires have made III
vantage, for the narrow-tired wagol
gave us trouble nearly every dry sea
son.
1T is not only on the road that wild
tires are an advantage. They are
"blessing" on the farm. For hauling
wood and manure in the spring, before
the ground is well settled; picking VI
stones on plowed fields, and hauling
hay and wheat bundles, nothing elst
can equal them. The lane leading t.
the back end of the farm used to b,
full of ruts every season; now it is GOV
cred with nice, thick, green sward
and the wide tires never rut it up.
The expense of changing a narrow
tired wagon to broad tires is very mod
crate We paid about sixteen dollar
to change ours over. Our dealers sci
nothing but wide-tired wagons now; il
fact, very few farmers would take
narrow tire at half price,. II. Brown
