until these can be set in the ground.
The employment of empty tomato cans
for the same purpose is not new idea,
but as presented by writer in Ameri-
can Gardening it possesses novelty.
The cans are first put in the fire to
melt off the solder and are next tied up
with a wire, set ON the bench or in a
frame and filled with earth ready to re-
ceive the plant. The can then appears
as in Fig. in the cut.
When ready to set the plant, the wire
can be taken off the can and the chunk
of soil with the plant. which should
have received good watering before,
allowed to slip out. The plant is then
firmly set into the ground, perhaps lit
tie deeper than it stood before, and the
tin, shaped in half circle, may be
stuck little way into the ground, as
shown at Fig. 2, to serve as protection
for the plant. If this protection is en-
tended against raw. chilly north or west
winds, the can should be placed at the
northwest; if against the burning sun
shine during hot, dry spell, at the
south of the plant

putting them into such excellent condi-
ton as they now show.
The Kennebecs got in their usual quota

loss Of the game being mainly failure to
hit Lincoln when hits meant runs.
Coyle pitched good ball and had he re-
ceived better support, Fall Rivers score
would have been smaller. Butler caught

only be used at the request Of the cattle
owners, and the full value of the animal
is paid the owner Dairymen under this
law will no longer be obliged to pay
the expense of needless investigation
which they neither requested nor de-

For harvesting the corn crop many
devices have been proposed during tho
past few years. The most common is the
sled with a knife Or saw attached to the
side This is to be hauled along the corn
row. slicing off the stalks as it goes. 1t
is hard to haul and will not work well
when the corn is badly down. Last year
attention was called to a corn harvester
which cuts the corn and loads it into
the wagon. 1t is successful, but expen-

large areas to cut.
