a moro liberal production of nutritious fod-
der crops, aside from Indian corn, to be raised
on the farm and fed in connection with pur-
chased commercial feed-stuffs, 10 urged by
Director Goessman, Of the Massachusetts, Sta
ton, as an efficient means to increase the gen.
eral productiyeness of Eastern farm-lands, and
also to cheaper the cost of feed for all kinds Of
farm livestock. The introduction of greater
variety Of fodder plants will enable farmers to
meet better the differences in local conditions
of climate and soil, as well as the special wants
of different branches of farm industry.
Taking this view of the question, the great
and valuable family of leguminous plants-as
clovers, vetches, lucerne, serradela peas, beans,
lupines, etc.-s in a particular degree well
qualified for that purpose These plants also
deserve decided recommendation In the in
terest of wider range for the introduction of
economical systems of rotation of crops under
various conditions of soil and different require
ments of markets.
Most Of these fodder plants have an extensive
root system, and for this reason largely draw
their plant food from the lower portion Of the
soil. The amount of stubble and roots they
leave behind after the crop has been harvested
Is exceptionally large, and decidedly improves
both the physical and chemical condition of
the soil. The lands are thus subsequently bet
ter fitted for the production of shallow growing
crops, as grains etc. Large production of fod-
der crops assist in the economical raising of
general farm crops; although the area devoted
to cultivation is reduced the total yield of
the land is usually more satisfactory.
The codlng- moth Is perhaps the worst insect
that infests the orchards of our country. He
comes out about June 1, and being night flyer
is very seldom seen. The female may be some-
times seen at early evening fitting around
and laying her eggs on the cslyx ends of the
little apples from the time they are just form
ing until half grown. The eggs soon hatch
and the young moths eat their way to the core.
After three or four weeks it reaches its cater
pillar growth, leaves the tree, seeks come little
crevice where it spins q slight cocoon, then
changes to the pupe or chrysalis state. and
little later it emerges full fedged moth. ready
to repeat the operation for second brood. For
Kidding the tree of these pests Paris green has
been found to be the best, in the proportion of
one pound to 200 or $50 gallons of water, with
the addition of few pounds of lime to pre-
vent burning. Spray Immediately after bios
somipg and repeat at intervals of 10 days.
Should heavy rains occur repeat the spraying.
A good spraying pump can be obtained for
| $1.25, and will possibly save as many dollars
for the cents expended in purchasing. For
bark louse, aphis, apple-scab and other fungus
diseases use the Bordeaux mixture.

within easy walking distance from the Strand

were up and away in gleeful bands to gather
the hawthorn boughs and May-blossoms. Re-

merry-makers proceeded to deck windows,
doors, and posts with the fragrant and bloom

streets were transformed into highways of par

Like some fair swan that skins the silver

Her silken cyguets strewed on every side.
So floatest thou, thy Polvnesian brood.

While every surge that doth thy bosom

Salutes theo Empress Of the Southern

THE REV. GEORGE W. SWAN, NORWICH.
Mass. Mr.. Swan learned of the exist
ence of the den from a prisoner dis
charged from the Norwich jail and
resolved to institute personal investi-
cation. Disgusting himself as a
"knight of the turnpike" in company
with the man, he journeyed into the
Bay State and spent several hours at
the unique haunt. He found several
gangs of tramps, but all under one
head.
1.-THE den was located in an over
hanging Cliff" said Mr.. Swan, in tell
ing of the incident. "rhe entrance
was just large enough to allow q man
to crawl through. The interior was a
natural cave, 10x12 feet, barely high
enough for man to stand upright.
mo tramps that work, or are look
ing for or expecting work, can get any
sympathy or assistance here. The
Cliff is the rendezvous for the un-
washed tramp. All the slang of the
day Is rehearsed and the tricks of the
tramp profession discussed The beg
ging dodge is practiced untn perfected.
Zone tramp said the 'splintered arm
racket was paying the best. All one
had to do was ito get doctor, or some
hospital patient that understood it, to
put plaster of paris cast on one arm
and then work the begging racket in
as many towns as possible."
The city missionary gathered in a
stock of valuable information from the
congregated wanderers, several of
whom he has met in this city since.
One young man he detected playing
the begging game and had him ar
rested. During Mr.. Swans stay in the
den the talk turned on the attitude of
various cities toward the tramps, and
he heard several,of the gentry advise
their companions to give Norwich q
cold shoulder, as its charity system
was severe on theHlndeserving.
