A writer in Rurul New Yorker says My
nextdoor neighbor had several plum trees
bearing fine fruit and all died covered with
knots, but before dying had secured a
few sprouts and had some fine young trees
of each, when they were about six feet high
knots began to break out on the trunks
some inches long. Having filled small
sewing machine oil can with coal oil, |
gave the old tree a dose; they stopped
growing, but in about month few more
made their appearance and some old ones
began to swell again. Then another dose
finished them. The next year (last sum
mer) a few spots apl cared they were
treated before they broke out and all the
trees are now thrifty, only scared where
large knots were, as the knots died and
fell off like loose bark, leaving dead spots
over which the new bark is growing. It
the trees are very badly affected it is bet
ter to cut them down they are so insight
ly The oil does not seem to have any
bad effect on the sound part of the tree
but, like other medicine, too much might
be injurious, but Id rather kill it trying to
save it than let the disease have its way.

When catarrh attacks person of scofulous

chronic. The only efiicacious cure, therefore
is Ayers sarsaparilla, which expels scrofula
from the system and the catarrh soon follows
suit. Local treatment is only waste OF time.

To cover Furniture

With a screw-dryer remove carefully
all the old tacks, and take OFT the old
cover for Il pattern. If the cover is to be
put on smooth, it is a very simple matter,
If is put on with buttons, II IS little
harder but is still possible. Take some
pieces of Irvine about 10 inches long.
Thread a piece into a long darning needle
and draw the Irvine through the eye OF the
button. Then draw one end of the Irvine
through the back or seat, in the old place
draw the other end through at very
short distance from the first, and tie them
tightly in a very hard knot (you will see
how this is done by removing the cover
of the back. Some care is necessary to
keep the goods straight and in place,
Gimp is needed to cover the taCks along
the edge, and there are now small brass
headed tacks to put it on with. There Is
great variety of goods useful for cover
ing from cretonne to plush, II light goods
are used, it is much better to turn under
the edge a little. though the furniture men
do not, and the result is that the cover
pulls away from the edge, sometimes be-
fore it is half worn out. II springs are
broken a strong hand is needed to replace
them. but it can be done.
