The ss..s..e. s,ox FOR Market.

Farmers and dealers in the Boston
market claim that the bushel box is
more convenient than the bushel basket
for gardening and market purposes. In
fact, the basket has never been used in
the local trade to any extent, its use be-
ing confined to the New York and Phil
adelphia markets more especially. The
New Highlander adopted the box from
an economical point of view, as it can
be returned and credit received for it,
while the basket cannot. 1t takes up
less room in the storerooms, and the
goods can be packed much closer in tiers,
with equally good ventilation, while the
contents are kept in much better shape,
and can be put in neater and more sala-
BILE packages.
The grower prefers them for the above
reasons. The Boston houses supply large
quantities Of garden truck to the New
York and Philadelphia markets and
ship the goods in boxes. 1t seems won
der that the New York marketmen
have not come to adopt the box more
generally when the above facts are con-
sidered, says american Cultivator.

MODERATE NOISE.
A Comparatively Quiet Eyeninw-some
Accidents

8 1t has been the, quietest night before
the Fourth I have seen for a long time, y
said policeman this morning Accidents
were few, and the noise was not great.
Nevertheless, few will celebrate today
by being sorer or wiser, or both.
A young man employed in Seaman S
store accidentally exploded revolver he
was cleaning and sent the bullet through
his hand, yesterday morning
Officers McGrath and Thomson took
in young man who was throwing stones
at passing teams on Commercial street
last evening.
A young man named Smith, whose
home is at the corner of India and Fore
streets, received a severe injury to his eye
last evening while celebrating.
young man named Frank Beck, who
was shouting with others as the patrol
wagon went by to the fire, was arrested
and carried to the station Deputy
Sterling intended to let him go with an
admonition, but young Beck demanded
an apology from the officers. Thereupon
he was put in a cell for few moments
but was soon after liberated.

Fodder Corn.

Many farmers still grow fodder corn
in the old fashioned way Of planting il
thick, two or three bushels to the acre,
and feeding it out day by day in an i'm
mature and inferior condition. 1t has
been proved that this thickly grown i'm
mature corn is, for short, poor stuff, and
hardly worth the feeding. Corn needs q
free circulation Of the air and full access
to the sunshine in order for it to store
up it's riches Of stock food. This it can,
not do when grown SO thick as formerly
planted. Tt has also been learned that
corn stores up the principal part of itf
food material in the later stages of its
growth. Hence immature corn has little
feeding value Late varieties that can.
not perfect their growth therefore are
not the best to grow. For fodder corn,
then, select variety early enough tc
perfect its growth. Plant no more thar
10 to IL quarts of seed to the acre. This
will give more food material to the acre
than late variety grown thick. Maine

Home Mixed Fertilizers.

One argument used by those who miz
fertilizers at home is that they know
what their mixture contains if they buy
the ingredients and put them together.
Don't make too much Of that. Isn't il
possible to adulterate the separate ma
terials as we'll as the mixed goods? Is il
any easier for the farmer to know that
his ''pure bone" is half oyster shells, Oh
is nitrate of soda one-fourth common
salt than to know that there is leather
in the mixed goods? Not long since 8
dealer quoted very low prices to one Of
our readers OH nitrate of soda" an6
"muriate," but he was sharp enough
not to guarantee any analysis to go witt
them. Always insist upon guaranteed
analysis whether you buy separate chem
icals Or mixed goods, is the advice Of

New England Fair Notes.

A representative of the New England

yenience.
Mr.. Farnham is now in correspondence

tween johnson and some horse, possibly
Mascot, 2.04, or Joe Patchen. with the
same record. johnson made mile ovel

LAST EVENINGS FIRE.
1t Was Small One and Soon Put Out.

The alarm of fire rung in last evening
about Ills O'Clock from box 81, was
caused by a slight blaze on the roof OF
No. 81, rear of Oxford street. The house
is occupied by Albert Fitch. The fire
was on the roof, but was easily mastered.
The damage was slight.
Just as the apparatus was leaving,
an alarm came in from box Az, and the
engines dashed off in that direction.
But the alarm was a mistake, caused,
apparently, by an attempt to pull in the
call gu t" signal.
Later, about IL. 80 O'Clock this morning
there was a still alarm from MOI Wilmot
Place, where a few sparks set fire to some
rubbish in the cellar. The Chemical
handled it all right.

Persistent Orchard Grass.

Generally speaking, where orchard
grass has once been sown on a farm the
land is never after entirely free from it.
Yet this grass is easily killed when
plowed- Its persistency comes from the
fact that it's seesls scatter easily, and that
they retain their vitality long time
when covered too deeply. In this they
are like the clovers, both red and white.
Each of these will appear on land where
no seed has been sown for years if the
plant has ever been allowed to mature
seed
