varied by the addition of few spoon

of berries, in their season, which inn
part color as well as flavor to the dish.
If one chances to be near a cheese fac
tory or creamery, one can usually OBJ

SUCCESSFUL SPRAYING.
Take Time Enough to Do the Work Thor
OughIy and Regularly.

Take Time Enough to Do the Work Thor
oughly and Regularly.
Fungous diseases of several kinds
have spread all over the country, and,
unless checked, destroy the fruits of
apple, peach, pear, plum and cherry
trees and of vines and berry bushes.
These diseases can be checked, and
their effects destroyed, by thorough
spraying. This has been proved be-
yond doubt, and the only question
now is how to do the work in the most
thorough manner. believe we have
not been in the habit of beginning
soon enough in this matter. No doubt
the scab. blight and other forms of
fungous disease begin to develop very
early in the season, and are at work
long before they make any visible
signs 1t is my opinion, and my ex-
perience last year confirms me in hold
ing 1T, that the best time to begin Is
before there is any sign of disease
about the trees. lwould begin before
the trees start into growth in the
spring, because then can use much
stronger solution without injuring the
trees. After the leaves have started
Bordeaux mixture of the standard
strength is as strong as can be used
without injuring the foliage, but If the
trees are sprayed as soon as warm
weather comes solution of copper
sulphate (blue vitrioD can be used as
strong as one pound to 25 or 80 gallons
OF water This copper sulphate is very
cheap now, and one can afford to use
1t literally, and the trees ground
should be pretty well drenched with
them, and the form of sprayer should
be such as will throw stream against
the body and branches of the trees
with sufficient force to penetrate the
crevices in the bark and wet the whole
surface. If this is done millions of
spores that are only waiting for favor
able conditions to spring into life and
growth will be killed and much after
work will be saved.
Later in the season the nozzle of the
sprayer should be one that produces
fine mist, as it is not well to get too
much of the solution on the leaves.
The object should be to cover the whole
surface of the trees, but as lightly as
possible.
In spraying for curculio, have al
ways tried to do the job thoroughly
and have always succeeded in getting
good crops. have watched men
spraying trees who were not half do
ing it. 1t is impossible to make COM
plete job of it without taking some
time to each tree, and, unless this is
done, some effects of the prevailing
disease may be observed at the end of
the season. The only way to spray
with complete success is to take enough
time to do it thoroughly. hope that
no one will think that his trees do not
need spraying. All fruit trees need it,
and the man who neglects the orchards
is only keeping nursery for the spores
of disease.-A. s. Rogers, in Spring
field CO., Farm News.

CRUSHED STONE ROADS.
What Illinois Road Commissioners
Knows About Them.

What an Illinois Road Commissioners
Knows About Them.
Our gravel beds, which a few wears
ago supplied us with excellent gravel
for road purposes, have gradually de-
generated to cobblestone. Something
had to be done, and our commissions
purchased a crusher and put it to go
ing on this stone. Much to their sur
prise, as we'll as to the rest of us, the ma
chine easily turned out yard of splen-
did road material every five minutes.
They hired traction engine at IS a
day to furnish power. 1t furnished
power and could have run another
crusher at the same time. The follow
ing details may interest highway COM
missioners having to contend with too
much coarse stone in their gravel beds:
We crushed yard of stone every
five minutes, paying IS day for power.
Six shovelers fed the crusher. The
material was elevated into the wagons,
therefore but one handling was re-
quired. The advantages over the old
way of road making in this locality
We're almost too numerous to mention.
We can keep our pit in the best posi-
BILE shape and leave it in that condition
for the next time. With a little head
work by the commissioner in imme-
diate control, teams need not wait
thirty seconds for a chance to load.
Under the old way there were too often
two to five teams at SO day standing
still waiting for others to be loaded.
There is no time wasted in throwing
stone back at the pit or raking them
out of the road after being hauled on.
Generally they are not raked out at all.
A crushed stone road is far superior
to the ordinary gravel road and easier
kept in repair. AS matter Of fact,
we now build crushed-stone road
cheaper than we did gravel road.
The reader can figure from this data:
Power per day, SIS; yard crushed every
five minutes; shovelers and haulers are
the same, whether you use crushed
rock or gravel, and of course need not
be counted.-John r. King, in Chicago

HATS AND THEIR WEARERS.

The Madonna Girl, the Poets Ideal, IL the
Rage Mt Present.
The bonnet whose plumes stand
straight up to great height from a
modest Dutch band, looks great deal
like Fiji head-dress, but if it be
styled Dutch bonnet the suggestion
of the South seas is not amiss. For.
be it known, the Dutch bonnet is on
top in double sense; it reigns
throughout the country, and women
find it universally becoming, too. Isn't
it funny women are so modest? They
confess with delight that each fashion
proves becoming, instead of realizing
that it is their own everlasting charm
that is proven. No matter what she
puts on, a pretty woman is going to
be slightly. 1t is necessary only that
she should not look strangely different
from other girls that her prettiness
may be recognized. So 1t is that all
tumble unto the same fashions with
fitful frenzy. Harmony being thus Sc
cured, beauty gets it's invariable rec
ignition. All the same. the Madonna
girl and the big girl with rather heavy
features and fine eyes is having her
time just now.
A fetching toque is thus described:
1t is Of sapphire blue velvet, which is
arranged in series Of puffs and loops
in front and around the brim, dimin-
ished in size at the back. On either
side toward the front, feathery aig-
rettes are placed. A pretty variation
on the neck ruche binds big roses to-
gether in strand of bright ribbon.
The ribbon ties in front under the
chin, is fitted smooth y in at the col
lar and sweeps stiffiy and primly over
the blouse front, turning under with
it to tuck in with 1t at the belt. Cor
responding bands are added to each
side and fit closely. Almost all the
new bodices will show this effect or
some modification of it. Very slender
women may try the bodice bloused in
the back as well as in the front, but
the experiment is risky for anybody
but "bean pole. boston Traveller.

Formula for Kerosene Emulsion.

This formula for kerosene emul-
sion was given by professor in one of
our agricultural colleges some years
ago, and was requested to experiment
with it on greenhouse plants did so,
with highly satisfactory results. 1t is
made as follows: Two parts kerosene,
one part of slightly sour milk. Churn
together until union of milk and oil
results. When they unite a white
jellly-like substance will be secured,
which will mix readily with water.
Dilute this jelly with eighteen or
twenty times its quantity of water,
and shower your plants thoroughly.
Soft-leaved plants, like begonias, prim-
roses and gloxinias, are frequently in
jured by it, If applied in the strength
advised above; therefore it is well to
dilute the applications by using at
least thirty parts of water to one of
the jelly.-Ladies' Home Journal.
