Thinning Fruit.

Mr.. Edward W. Lincoln. in his report
to the Worcester County fIass) Horti-
cultural Society, states that from prac-
teal experience there is no alternate
bearing fruits. The reason why trees
do not bear liz successive years is chief
ly from the fact that they have been
allowed to overbear the previous year.
He experimental chiefly on pears.
From single tree of the Belle Lucra-
tive he pulled Off 1000 young fruit. hot
only does this practice tend to give reg
ular crops every year but the size and
quality of the fruit is much enhanced
by this practice. He thinks there is no
more reason why fruit growers should
not Systematically thin out the too
abundant crops. than there is for not
hOeing out superabundant corn and po-
tatoes.-Mcehan's Monthly.

Gelatin contains much protein matter
but it does not digest readily in this

things it is of little value.
A soup stock before clarifying will
consist of three layers, the fat on top,
the clear gelatinous part and the coagu-

This lower strata contains about all the

Honey ard It's Market.

It has been suggested that. unless a
good price be asked, it Will not be Sc
cured. And there is more truth than
poetry in that hint, though, if the price
asked be too high there will also be
fewer sales and consequently less
money obtained but more honey left
on the producers hands. 1t seems to
me that comb honey, in most home
markets, should bring not less than 20
cents per single section, or six sections
for 81. Extracted honey should retail,
per single pound, at ID cents, or eight
pounds for 81 These prices certainly
are not high, and yet probably large
enough to sufficiently reward any rea-
sonable producer in a fair honey sea-
son.
There is much education in this mat
ter of the price Of honey, as well as to
its constant use in the family. BY start
ing out rightly better price can be Sc
cured and maintained, and also more
sales be made; while If there is wrong
beginning it will be we'll nigh impossi-
bic to correct 1t later On. By all means
study the consumers ability to pay
supply pure honey, put up in an
attractive form, and there will be little
trouble about future orders after the
first purchase is made and used

Are Women Abused by Men?

1t seems to be fact that q majority
of women, married or single, believe
they are abused by the men just be-
cause the latter happen to have control
of business affairs, run politics and do
the counting.
The woman of marriageable age who
is still Living, ut home feels that men are
not doing right by her. She naturally
wants to marry. have n big wedding,
go on n tour of the Eastern States or
Western, as the case may be. But she
has to go on waiting because no man
asks her to join him I'm these festivities.
For this reason she feels that she is an
abused creature.
The old maid who settles down to
earn her own living just hates the men,
because they allow her to wear her
finger-nails off scratching for bread.

bly, along the street, or driving, or even

How a Mulch Acts.

The value of Il mulch is only partially
appreciated by Americans, and there is
a wide field for development in using
mulcheS OF all kinds. We obtain our
ideas of mulches from the prairieS and
forests, where nature forms her own
mulch. The decaying leaves and stems
soon form Il mass Oh the surface. which
prevents the soil from losing much of
its moisture. This leaf mold and ac-
emulation of vegetable matter. actSS-ssss
protecting covering for t''''T
it will be found around t
forest, and around the TO, (
grasses on every meadow In lr-rr.tt>,
ing nature, as she works in the field and
forest, we adopted the artificial much
around our fruit trees. and found that
it worked to their advantage. \ mulch
besides retaining the moisture in the
soil, also secures Il mere uniform tenn
perature and adds considerable plant
food to it. The nature of the mulch is
an important part OF the work. Flat
stones may be used around trees. form
ing permanent mulch, but their ac-
ton is merely mechanical. 1t retains
the moisture and temperature of the
soil, but it adds nothing to it, Sawdust
it but a little better, but straw and new
mown lawn grass form rich mulches
that add plant food to the soil.
The next change which takes place in
the soil when covering is placed over
the surface is not generally understood.
Some chemical change takes place, and
the soil is enriched for Il time. In some
of the gardens of France the benefits
derived from shading Il portion OF the
soil is understood and carried out site
ceSsfully. Tiles cover the strawberry
beds, with holes made through thcn
here and there for the vines to grow
out of. Flower gardens are likewise
covered with tiles or cement, leaving
no part of the soil exposed except where
the plants come through. Expert hol-
ticulturiStS there find this method OF
great advantage. In less expensive
way parchment paper can be used for
covering garden soil. Brown paper
dipped in Sulphuric acid should be used
for this purpose, as it is then made
tough and waterproof. In times of
drought this mulch acts splendidly. 1t
retains the water, accelerates the
growth of the plants and keeps down
the weeds. More experiment with
mulchcs will in time make gardening
much easier and more profitable. The
parchment paper mulch, however, for
small places is the simplest, cheapest,
and most effectual that has yet been OK

a Fault in Piano Playing.

A well-knOwn paino teacher says that
che of the most common faults in piano
playing is the practice of playing the
two hands out of time with each other.
Nine players out of ten permit the left
hand to lead the right, when the two
should strike the keys simultaneously.
1t is n sort of swagger that produces 4
very inartiStic effect. OF course there
are rare cases where this dilatOrinesS of
the right hand may be legitimate, but
it should be remembered that in gener
al it is reprehensible and should be
carefully avoided. If the composer in
dicates the simultaneous performance
of the notes belonging to the two hands.
Let not the slightest discrepancy be
manifest. To play the two hands out
of time with each other is TO be not
OILY inaccurate, but to appear affected.

To preserve celery during tie winter
season is no easy task, and many good
practical men fail in the task. For one
or two seasons we tried lifting the
heads and planting them in cold frames
or storing in cellars. When placed i'll
cellars the celery kept fairly well, but
became tough, stringy and of very poor
favor, owing in large measure, no
doubt, to the lack of moisture at the
root In frames we usually lost large
proportion of roots from rot. For the
past year or two we have succeeded in
keeping celery in good condition until
the end of March in the open ground.
Our late crop we plant on ground which
has gentle decline and where the soil
Is rather light; the plants are we'll wa
tered during the growing season, and
earthings up are given as required on
the advent of colder weather; when
sharp frost occurs coating of leaves
Is placed over the trench Of sufficient
thickness to exclude frost; couple Of
boards fourteen inches in width are
nailed together and laid over the tip of
the rows to throw off the water on each
side, and also to prevent the leaves
from blowing about. On fine mild days
we lift these boards Off, and the air is
admitted as much as possible to the
plants. Celery lined with good balls of
earth and heeled into trenches will
keep fairly well, protected in the same
way, but not so well as those which
have never been disturbed at the root
