TREE PLANTING.

Mr.. n. Dinner, the we'll known hor-
ticulturist of Dayton, Ohio, recently
made the following statement with re-
gard to tree planting before the stu
dents of the School of Agriculture of
the Ohio State University:
81 give special attention to plant
ing. | consider this matter Of plant
ing a very important one. 1t is really
very much neglected. I set my trees q
little deeper in the orchard than they
stand in the nursery. l dig holes for
setting twelve or fifteen inches deep,
and when come to the cultivation of
my trees l throw the earth toward
them. In preparing the trees for
planting, I cut off all bruised or mutt
lated roots. In the peach tree, l cut
the top also, in order to give the tree
proper shape, otherwise you will have
long branches ttat will break beneath
the weight of the fruit. If your tree
has good roots, you need have no fear
that the cutting of the top will injure
it,
"Have you plan for keeping your
trees in line in planting?"
81 have always exercised great care
in setting my trees to have them well
arranged. use very simple device
of my own. Under proper arrange
ment the orchards look better, and I
think do better, when arranged in
regular order.

POULTRY FOR RUNDOWN FARMS.

New England has always used the
raw material of other States and man
ufactured goods of all kinds in which
her people have excelled. With fewer
advantages as an agricultural country,
yet she excels in yield, in proportion
to area cultivated, in many crops that
are grown extensively elsewhere.
Massachusetts produces more corn per
acre than any other State, but it pays
her people better to grow articles that
bring the highest prices in market.
SO far as pure breeds of poultry are
concerned, New England leads all other
sections, and she derives an enormous
sum from that source alone, while her
farmers also get the best prices for
dressed carcasses and eggs.
OF late years it has been largely adj
vertised that many farms in some sec
tions of New England no longer pay,
and that their owners have ceased to
take an interest in them, even going
SO far as to abandon them in cases
that have been noticed. The cause
assigned is that farm products are
grown so cheaply in the West that our
farmers cannot compete with the West
ern farmers. But our farmers can use
the cheap foods, however, and change
them into more salable products. It
may be mentioned that SO far as the
quality of the soil is concerned, poul-
try can be made speciality on the
poorest or the best, and the frozen
stock of the West has never interfered
with prices in the East. Strictly fresh,
nearby eggs and choice carcasses can
not be brought East, while consumers
will not discard the good for the in
ferior. Mirror and Farmer.

Patriot to His Grave.
Louis Kossuth was buried at Budapest
one week after his death at Turin. Enor-
NOUS crowds had gathered from ell parts OF
Hungary to attend the funeral and mourn
with the people Of the capital. The streets
were flied almost from wall to wall until
sunset.
J The streets leading to the National Muse
UNI, where Kossuth's body lay In state, were
packed with people before O'Clock. Inc
Protestant Bishop and fory-two priests at
10 o'clock entered the temporary chapel,
where ex-Premier Tfsza, the Hungarian DEL
egates and Deputies, and Twenty-Five mag
mates awaited the opening OF the service
The religious ceremony was short.
There was a pause, and then Maurice
Jokai, the author, rose to deliver the funeral
Grafton In behalf of the Hungarian Deputies
While the coffin was being removed to the
funeral car, the throng outside sang the
revolutionary air, "Szozat." More than
800 900 persons from all parts ofthe Kingdom
had gathered In the neighborhood OF the
Museum. and the song was echoed and re-
ecnoed down the streets TO points half mile
from the spot where the procession was form
ing.
The head of the procession left the Mu-
scum at IL o'clock. The Honveds OF 1649
led the line, carrying with them their old
standards and flags. Behind them walked
1000 women, clothed in black. Then came
twenty canopied cars, the clergy, Kossuth's
sons on foot. two carriages with women
related to thu family, deputies, delegates,
committees, societies, peasants and peas
ants wives and hundreds of little children
in mourning. The procession was almost
as broad as the roadways, and was five
miles long. Between Il, 600 and 49, 600 vol
unteers guarded the route of the procession,
and prevented the crowds from packing the
streets through which the body was borne to
the cemetery.
Kossuth was buried between Deak and
Batthyanyi, two Hungarian patriots OF his
time and political tendency.

THE FARMERS GARDEN.

It is probably true that farm gar
dens, vegetable and fruit gardens, will
be more generally cultivated this year
than ever before, for the reason that
we are daily learning more of the re-
quirements of life and discover them
only in well supplied table, and that
the latter is found only where the
kitchen garden affords the necessary
material. Man is not altogether a meat
eater; indeed we have learned that
with fresh vegetables and fruits from a
properly conducted garden with cream
and butter and eggs he is much bet
ter of and likely to enjoy better
health than with more meat. Less
meat and pastry, less high living and
nearer approach to natures own
health giving products will nour-
ish and sustain the animal economy
with less irritation of the mental and
physical systems, less indigestion and
constipation and heartier, happier
tone generally.
A good sized two acres near to the
house should be laid off, thoroughly
plowed, we'll MANFRED and put in the
finest possible filth. Then determine
what vegetables you want for spring,
summer, autumn and winter use. Take
piece of blank paper, make q map
showing where the roads through it
are to be, then where this that and the
other thing is to be planted. Goose
berry, currant and raspberry bushes
may be planted in straight rows only
from end to end, SO as not to interfere
with the plow; but they should be, if
possible, near the road and pathways
or along under the fences.
Deep cultivation, perfect tillage and
thorough manuring with stable or
barn yard manure are the main requi-
sites to success. Take, then, one of the
great seed catalogues and select what
seed you want for the first year. If
you are short of help select fewer va
rieties, but have them SO as to supply
a continuous variety from the earliest
spring till frost comes, and even then
have store of such as will keep
through the winter, The American
farmer should be the best fed man in
the world, princes and kings not ex-
cepted; and he will be if he only lays
himself out to produce for his own
table fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh
milk, butter, eggs and poultry, and
fresh meat when it may be convenient
ly had. The beautifully gotten up
seed catalogues published by our ad-
vertisers for gratuitous distribution
should be in every farmhouse in the
country and be freely and fully con-
suited. They not only remind one of
the varieties needed, but, as a rule,
tell how they are to be cultivated so
as to insure the best results. The
making of the garden and the planting
thereof may come just when all hands
and horses are wanted for other work,
but better employ extra help to make
it than not have a garden at ali. It
should be SO planted as to admit of
horse cultivation, Colmans Rural

CHRYsANTHEMUMS.

Who doesn't love chrysanthemums
Yet comparatively few raise them, the
reason usually given being that they
are too much trouble. Many others,
not knowing that they can be raised
from seed, thinking the plants must
be purchased from a florist, do not
raise them on account of the expense.
One nice way to manage them is to
fit lot of egg-shells into box, fill
the shells with sandy soil, and in each
one plant seed, covering them to a
depth equal to about twice the thick
ness of the seed. Care for them as
for any other seed. If planted about
the last of February they will be ready
to transplant by the time all danger of
frost is gone. Transplant each plant
into five or six inch plot. Sink the
pot in the earth in the garden where
they will get the morning sun, but
will be partially shaded in the after
noon. Water if necessary, but they
will require little else. In August
they should be trimmed back to twelve
or fourteen inches in height so that
they will branch out and thus bear
many flowers.
In September 1t is we'll to begin
giving them manure water two or
three times week. Not absolutely
necessary, of course, but it will pay
any one to go to the trouble, for the
blooms will be not only more abundant
but larger and more brilliant. They
should be removed to the house early
enough in the fall to insure against
frost, but should be put in room
without fire at first. Indeed, the
cooler the plants are kept after they
once begin to blossom the longer the
bloom will last, and by little manage
ment may be kept for Christmas
blooming.
To do this they should be more
shaded than the other plants and not
cut back so early in the season. Then
when brought into the house they
should be kept as cool as possible not
to freeze.
Some persons do not SOW the seed
until the season is so far advanced
that they may be sown in open ground.
They grow all summer where sown,
but are potted early in the fall, being
trimmed back at that time. They do
not bloom quite so early as where the
seed is sown earlier, and the plants
not disturbed by fall potting, but some
as fine blossoms as 1 ever saw have
been grown on plants SO treated. -

Battle Between Insurgents and Ma
Hetoa'S Forces
The steamer Alameda brings news of dis
turbances in Samoa, which threaten serious
consequences unless soon checked.
The trouble, which has assumed the pro-
portions of o war, grow out of the action of
the new Supreme Judge, Ide, of Vermont,
in imposing fines upon some of the minor
chiefs for disorderly conduct, and imprison-
ing and compelling them to work on the pub
lie roads In default of the payment of the
fines.
The followers of the chiefs arose in armed
rebellion against these indignities to their
leaders and demanded their immediate re-
lease. An attempt was made to disarm the
rebellious natives, but they stoutly denied
the right CT European or other foreigners to
interfere In their affairs and refused to lay
down their arms.
The chiefs who lad been obliged to do de-
grading work eagerly led their willing fol-
lowers toward the achievement of revenge
for their degradation and King Malietoa
finally sent body of troops to attack the
rebels.
The Government troops had several en-
counters with the rebellious bands, in which
thirty of the rebels were killed, about fifty
wounded and a number made prisoners.
Tho Government troops also suffered to the
extent of dozen or more Killed and many
eminent won.
The Kings troops celebrated their victory
by multilating one of their prisoners in a
most horrible manner. The next day they
treated another poor wretch In the same
way and finally they made an unprovoked
attack of one of the defenseless villages of
their late adversaries.
With nothing to oppose them they INDUCED
in most frightful atrocities. Houses were
burned, woman were outraged and then
killed, and the dead bodies beheaded an
finally cut into small pieces and the mad
dened soldiers of the King desisted only
when there was nothing left to destroy and
nobody lefE to kill.
Meanwhile the other chiefs rebelled against
the action of Judge Ide, and the support
given to him by King Malietoa and the cry
of Death to foreigners" spread throughout
the islands.
The United States, British and German
Consuls are making every effort to quell the
disturbances and restore the normal condi-
ton of things, but the hopelessness of their
task unaided is apparent and the arrival Of

MARKING SHEEP.

The best ear marks for sheep are the
metal nickel plated loops, upon which
are stamped the owners name and the
numbers of the sheep. To distinguish
the ewes from the other sheep they
may be marked in the right ear, the
others in the left. An easy way to
further distinguish any special sheep
is to put the marks in perpendicularly
in the ears, the others being put in
horizontally. The numbers are used
in the record book of those sheep that
are so desired to be distinguished. -
