TREE-PLANTlNG.
Whether Fall or Spring is the Better Time
for 1t,

Whether Fall or Spring is the Better Time
for 1t.
The question is often asked: Which
is the better time to set ont trees, the
spring or the fall?
The answer to this must depend upon
the nature of the tree or the shrub the
part of country, condition of soil and
climate where the planting is to be
done.
For example, in the extreme north or
open prairie country where the ther-
mometer may go extremely low, and,
what is worse, where harsh, drying
winds may prevail most Of the winter,
all but the hardest of trees and ever
greens are decidedly safer planted in
the spring than in the fall.
If, however, plenty of roots are
taken, and, what is even perhaps of
more Importance, a goodly lot of soil is
taken with the roots, allowing no un-
due exposure of them to the air, tree
well planted in the fall is perfectly
safe.
Aids to success will consist in evenly
distributing the roots in the new earth,
in compressing soil well about the
roots, and if trees are large enough to
be acted upon by the wind, in placing
stay wires to keep them snug and in
place.
Another famous aid is to mulch with
old hay or long, ittery manure or
leaves, which prevent a lifting of the
soil and the penetration of the frost too
deep therein.
In warm countries, where the frosts
amount to nothing, the fall is the time
to plant, or just as soon as the plants
have come to state of rest.
Here root action at once sets in to re.
pair the damages of removal, and by
the time springtime comes the newly
planted trees are fully equipped for a
new start.
Nurserymen of the north usually re.
serve the planting of their young stuff
until spring-a pretty good evidence OF
where success lies.
AS stuff has to be dug or is received
from outside sources in the fall, in
stead of being replanted at once they
are Laid in by the heels;' that is, they
are placed in rows in the ground, near
ly horizontal instead of upright, where
they are easily protected, if necessary,
by few boughs to keep off the drying
winds of winter

HERE AND THERE.

I'm fruit growing, loss often comes
through having to rush everything to
market at once.
An important department of dairy
farming is raising cows to keep up the
herd. This should not be neglected.
"A diversity of fruits will enable
you to spread the harvest and market
ing over long season, and that will
give the best profit.
Selection must be the leading fac
tor in the improvement of all our farm
stock, and fortunately it is method
which can be employed without great
expense.
1t is claimed that over 700, 900 sheep
are annually killed by dogs, the value
of the mutton and wool thus destroyed
being estimated at S3,00O,000.
If you are starting a fruit farm
plant something of every fruit that is
adapted to your location. Some years
one will give you a crop when the
others fail.
People who know too much are not
good material out of which td@nake
successful dairymen. They never learn
anything; their great knowledge was
inherited from some remote ancestor.
One great advantage of dairying
is that it brings in money every day
during the year, and the dairyman al
ways having cash can buy cheaper
than those who have to buy on credit
1t is a cash-in-hand business and as
such is satisfactory, even if net profits
are small.
-Over-cropping farm means disaster,
and ver-stockingafarm with worthless
animals. is to court bankruptcy. Plant
judiciously of good seeds, and cultivate
well. Stock the farm with animals
worthy of the best care, and give it to
them, and you are on the road to sue
cess. Turn neither to the right nor
left. and you will get there.

NO PLACE FOR HIS NERVES,
Why Man Who Wanted Quiet Home

Broke His Lease.
There's an empty house with a card

was after, but disgusted and disap-
pointed, his household goods are in
storage now, and he vows he will never
rent another domicile without first
fully Investigating it's surroundings
and the nocturnal peculiarities of the
inhabitants.

cutter, and bake in a quick oven. If
milk is not at hand, use a little more
butter and substitute water Farm
and Fireside
Hot Molasses Cake.-This is good
winter or summer. 1t makes a splen-
did lunch or supper dish accompanied
with hot chocolate. Put one cup of
molasses over the fire and when hot
melt in it cup of half lard and half
butter: turn into the mixing bowl, add

heaping teaspoonful of soda. Sift the
soda through the -four twice, rub the
butter through it, add the milk to

full of salt. Beat thoroughly. The milk
must be very sour to neutralize the
amount of soda given. If the milk is
not very sour use less soda. Another
way is to soak the flour in the milk

melted in the morning and the soda
dissolved in cold water.-Farm. Field

cream of tartar Make icing quite thin,
so as to spread easy, roll out dough,
spread icing over it and cut in small
strips about one and one-half inch by
three inches; the cakes will spread and
icing will break on top like macaroons.
Oven must be moderate. Should icing
not break we'll, add more cream of
tartar. A little experimenting will
make the prettiest cookies ever made.

REFLECTIONS
On the Various Kinds of Farmers that Go
to Make Up the Sum Total.

O
to Make Up the Sum Total
The crops of 1898 are about all har-
vested. The next thing to which every
farmer should turn his attention to is
the crop for 1894. The earliest date
fixed for the opening of the millen-
MUM is about six years off yet, and it
may be that after the millennium be-
gins there will be necessity for food
and clothing, and that the farmers
services will be required all during
that term and up to the period fixed
for the final consummation of all
things. Therefore prudent farmers
will commence right away to pre-
pare for another crop. In order that
the best success may be attained it is
important to begin right and continue
right through all the operations of the
year. II this can not be absolutely at

'It requires no effort to emphatically
show that already many, many millions
of dollars have been gained to agricul-
ture through the disinterested efforts
of scientists. Scientific investigation
will continue in the future as it has in
the past, and it is fair to assume that
each year will see much good work
done. Certainly no other class of la
Dor is receiving greater benefits from
science than is agriculture at the pres
ent day.
