THE ROYAL WEDDING.

London went Wild yesterday over the
s'royal marriage" which united pretty
and accomplished Princess May OF Teck
TO the young Duke who is to succeed his
father, the Prince OF Wales, upon the
English throne. The wedding was grand
and imposing, but the splendors hardly
made the Princess forget that she was to
have married the amiable and interesting
Duke OF Clarence, who was snatched away
by death from a brilliant career.
She could not have been persuaded, a
year ago that yesterday she would be
standing with the Duke Of York at the
altar. Her case is almost as romantic as
that OF the Empress OF Russia, who
married the present Emperor after he had
accidently inflicted fatal injuries, it is
said, upon his elder brother, to whom she
was betrothed.
The wedding is an event on the result OF
which hang most momentous consequen-
ces. Only one life stands between the
throne and a commoner and should 1t be
the will OF Fate that such should
come to pass no one could fortell what
would be the results or into what consti-
tutional England might turn.
We wish the young couple well as we
wish all others starting out on life's sea
together. We only hope that should the
duke and the duchess ever ascend the
throne they may WELD the scepter with
moderator and wisdom, to the good OF the
people and their happiness, In every part
of that vast kingdom over which the
present queen has ruled for so many years.

Nitrate of Soda For Tomatoes.

There is an oldestablished idea that
manure is injurious rather than bene-
fetal to tomatoes. "Manure makes
them run too much to vine," as an old
gardener would say. AS a matter of
fact there is some truth in this idea.
Ordinary farm-Ya1d manure is found to
keep the plants growing vigorously until
late in the season, at the expense of the
production of early fruit. This is largely
due to the fac that the nitrogen in the
manure is net available until it h been
conyerted into nitric acid. Thus the to-
mato plants have little nitrogen to grow
ON eaIly in tie season. so that their
growth is rt tarded until the supply Of
nitric acid is increased, when it is too
llte to produce crop, and the plants
run to vines"
1t has been found by experiments
made at the New Jersey EXperim, Mt
Station for three years, that nitrate of
SOFA, applied when the p'auts are set
orl greatly increased rheir growth early
in tie season and produced much
larger crop OF early ripe fruit than either
barn-yard manure, "phosphates, " or no
manure at all.
In the experiments conducted by the
New Jersey Experiment Station, on the
farm of Mr.. j. M. Gill, Gloucester
County, New Jersey, in 1891, the follow
ing results were obtained

soda to produce full crop. In writing
of these experiments Prof. Voorhees,,
who conducted them, says.
The yield of early tomatoes was very
decidedly increased by the use of nitrate
of soda, both alone and together with
phosphoric acid md potash.
We have had good success with toma-
toes fertiized in the following manner:
Before the plants are set out work into
the soil where they are to be planted a
handful of mixture of equal parts Of
nitrate of soda and superphosphate.
Then when the plants have started to
grow, scatter about q small tablespoon
full of aitrate around each plant.--Jos-
eph Harris.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-06-21

1t will be noticed that 100 pounds of
nitrate of soda, costing $4,OO, made an
increase in the value of the crop of
$92.O3 per acre over the unfertilzed
land. and $8237 over the land Where 20
tons of barn-yard manure, costing $4,000,
was used. 1t will also be noticed that
the addition of phosphate (bone black
and potash had little or no effect. This
does not indicate that tomatoes do not
require phosphoric acid and potash, but
that enough of these elements Of plant
food was already in the soil. Other ex-
periments made on poorer land showed
that the phosphoric acid and potash
were necessary in addition to nitrate of

Celery and Rice.

celery ana RICE.
Celery culture in Florida is an indus
try that has attracted more than pass
ing attention during the past year, and
the resultsof the ecXpcrimentsSO so far made
are SO encouraging that the industry is
liable to be considerably developed in the
near future.
We extract the following from the
proceedings of the last meeting of the
State Horticultural Society. After read
ing his paper on vegetables, Mr.. Hast
ings of st. Johns county, said:
| am quito extensively engaged in
raising celery. Last year | had very
good success, and this year have about
anacre planted. | made my first ship
ment just before left home. Last year

mass and no light can get below Where
y hill it up and put the earth to it it
produces five times as much us the other
way and it will not rust. The best plan
i to earth it up and plant it two feet
apart in the row and six inches in the
furrOW, and rs it keeps growing keep
hilling it up and keep it up until you
have ridge as high as for sweet pota-
toes The principal point is to have
plenty Of water. Where earth it up

have never met with the rust in the
hilling up system, in my garden or any
other garden. | think that plenty of
water will prevent rusting
PAINTER.-I might add that celery has
been raised at our place this year very
successfully. Where it was banked up
with sand and where they used boards or
other means it has not. They irrigated.
In reference to the plan of which Mr..
Hastings speaks | have tried it and |
think probably the main cause of the
failure is due to the lack of fertilizer and
the lack of water. This plant requires
a great deal of both, and when we put
one plant to every six or seven inches
we must put lots of fertilizer. The soil
must bevery rich.
HAsTINGs.-In these trenches | just
took some plain boards and put them
just as close to the rows of celery as |
could, and fastened them at the end
That is what Ibid last year and this year

Hints to Grape Pickers and Packers

l. Pick only when the grapes are dry,
and then they will not be injured if they
stand in the trays for twenty-fOur or thir-
ty-six hours before trimming and pack
ing. If, however, there are any bad ber-
ries to be culled out, the quicker this is
done after picking, and a short time for
willing, the better.
2. AS the clusters are clipped from
the viz es, with sharp knife or keen
pair of scissors used for that purpose,
Law tht m down in the trays, with the
stem ends standing upward, and one
tier Of lunches after another, until the
tray is even full. 1t should never be
heaped, as the lower tier may, if we'll
ripened, be irjuled by too much weight.
3. II it becomes necessary to empty
the crates, before the grapes are handled
by the clippers and packers, let the cus-
ters b } laid on a smooth table, bunch
by bunch, carefully and in tiers, not TO
exceed three or four clusters high, the
same as they were in the picking tray
with the stem standing upward, and
then they can be handled with the least
possible injury, by being taken up in
regular order, by their stems.
4. When qac ed in paskets, for mar
ket, the s. ems of the last course of clus-
ters should be placed to slant downward,
so that all will be covered, and fine
grapes only appear on top of the pack
age. There is great art in doing this
work deftly, nicely and yet rapid y; and
there is no part of grape manipulation
connected with the vintage season more
important than this, the object being to
make the packages as near as possible
OF uniform weight. and th-ir surfaces
smooth and even, just high enough for
slight pressure of the lid, and so attract
lively even that they will all be the
closest inspection, and show no trace of
carelessness or lack of tasteful arrange
ment on the part of the packer. Girls
are usually better adapted to this work
than boys or men.
2. In loading packages of market
grapes into wagons or on steamboats,
and in unloading them they should be
handled almost as if they contained
eggs, and the same care should be OBJ
served in loading cars. Any employe
who will not conform to reasonable reg
ulations requiring such service in hand
ling has "missed his calling" and
should be summarily dismissed as q
"bungler." -Yineyardist,
