FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Glover is n food for hens which one
must not overlook.
High bred animals give better re.
turns for feed consumed than ordinary
Or scrub stock
Even an extra amount fed to poor
cattle Will fail to bring that superior
quality which is desirable.
Only cultivated crops shonld be al
lowed IN orchards early in the seaeon.
Grain and hay should never be grown.
The tilIage should DO repeated as
often rs once i'll ten days throughout
the growing season, which extends
from spring until July or August.
If the value of the corn fed to hogg
IS figured we would like to know how
much more profit there is in pork as
usually made than in mutton. Did
iou ever stop to figure this?
Tillage should not exist for the pur.
pose OF killing weeds. Weeds have
taught the most important lesson in
agriculture, to be sure, but the school.
master should now be able to retire.
Glover is abundant, bulk V, and rich
IN lime and nitrogen. Oat, scald and
mix with "a little ground grass for the
poultry in the morning, and save
more expensive material, as clover il
very wholesome.
Fall blowing may be advisable for
farm crops, but it should generally be
discouraged in orchards. The land in
orchards should he left compact in
the fall, and it is advisable to cover il
with some close heritage

Are Apt to Explode.
The oil tank steamship KaSbck,
Captain Briggs, from BatOum for
London, arrived at Dartmouth for
coal, says the Westminster Gazette
The captain reported that while at
Marcus Hook, Batoum, n leak was
discovered in one Of the tanks. and,
as 1T was unsafe to use lamps, the
tanks being full OF gas generated
from the remnants OF previous car
goes, Captain Briggs tried the exler-
i'm mt OF DETECTING solar light som
twenty-seven feet into the dark hold
This was successfully ACCOMPLISHED
by means OF numter of highly pol
ished plates or mirrors. members of
the crew being 81 stationed az to re-
fleet the sun rays from the mirrors
into the hold. a food OF light at
least ten feet square was thrown
across the leaking Joint until it had
been thoroughly repaired. The work,
however, was attended with consider.
able d niger to the men, who ran
great risk of being suiTocated by the
dense fumes of accumulated gas.
Hopes were tied around their bodies
ami every few minutes they were
hauled to the deck for fresh air
Some Of them actually became intox-
icatcd with the fumes and were
hauled up laughing and in some cases
crying Captain Briggs, who went
down 20 superintend the work, re-
manned there too long and was drawn
up In an unconscious condition and
did not regain consciousness for sew
Crdl hours.

PREsERy1NG NIT srrns-

It is not necessary fer such seeds rs
hickory, walnut, chestnut, etc, to be
sown in the fall, as is generally sup
posed. 1t is better to COW in spring.
rs the fall paintings have to run many
risks, such as vermin and frosty soils.
A good way to preserve the nuts for
seed is to gather up the good nuts MS
soon as they fall; the good ones are
always the last to drop. Remove all
the hulls, then put in boxes or barrels,
mixing nearly dry earth with them,
and place in a cool cellar, free from
frost. If slightly damp cellar is
used no earth will be needed, as the
only function of the dirt is to keep the
nuts from drying and losing weight.
Nearly dry earth is best, inasmuch as
1T excludes tho air better. Farm,

NOTHING BEATS PLAIN GGAFrISG WAX.
A tree healer so calleD is good
thing for the man who sells it ut a

have used vaIious preparations for
covering wounds and bruises on trees,
and have settled down to plain graft
ing wax, believing, from comparative
tests, that it is the equal OF the best.
why cover n wound or bruise q?
Simply to exclude air and water. This
done, little extra feed and careful
culture for year or two, seldom fail
to overcome such injuries. The prepa-
rations that are "always ready for
use, such as shellac, paint, etc, have
to be repeatedly applied TO effect the
same purpose that IL COOL coating of
grating wax does. In order thor
oughly to rid peach, plum, ounce and
other trees OF borers, the earth must
be removed from the collar OF the
tree to a depth Of three to four inches
before this is returned land it should
not he left too late in spring., some.
tunes apply wash of lime, with eight
to ten pounds of muriate of potash to
each half barrel of wash, and enough
carbolic acid to give it the odor. This
applied with cheap fiber brushes, lib
orally from the bottom Of the basin
made by the removal of the earth
from about the tree, to a height of IL
foot above the surface level, helps to
heal the borer wounds, only by ex-
GLIDING air thorefrom. That the car
bolic acid oior has any merit rs n re-
pellent to the insect when seeking
places to deposit its eggs, is badly
strained belief. Hereafter, / shall
use lime alone for this purpose. With
borcrs, as with other vermin, proven
ton Is better and easier than cure, all
things considered. 1t is scarcely
practical to prevent the deposit oil
eggs Mt the collars of trees in large
orchards, but it is practical to remove
the ''grubs" Matched therefrom, be-
fore they do much injury this is all
that Is implied by prevention rs used
above. -Eural New Yorker.

FAREWELL MR.. HANSCOM.

An informal farewell reception was
rendered to Rev. L. L. and Mrs.
Hanscom by the congregation Of the
M. E. church in the church parlors
last evening. The reception was in
the nature of surprise the minister
and his wife and they were naturally
affected. In was general in it's nature,
and not only the members of the
church but large number of other
citizens, who have learned to admire
the minister during his stay here,
were present, to express their best
wishes for the future.
There was some informal speaking
on part of me mbers of the congrega-
ton, led by A. E. King, E. R. Houck
and Col. Frank Ring and others.
Rev. L. L. Hanscom responded. He
spoke pathetically of his departure
and pleasantly of his relations during
his stay here. While, he said, it
seemed to be the lot of the Methodist
minister, to have no home on earth,
he would look toward Redwood Falls
with pleasing memories Of the days
spent here. He hoped to revisit the
city frequently.
