CARE OF THE LAWN.

Lawns should be rakcd oil as soon rs
the frost Is out Of the ground. DO not
burn the dead leaves and grass taken OF
the lawn; spread them on the garden
plot, and, when plowed under, they will
greatly benefit the soil.
After the lawn Is clear OF all litter,
apply top dressing immediately, so the
spring rains will wash the fertilizer into
the ground. DO not use stable manure,
il Is not only unsightly, but will nil the
lawn with weeds.
Bv a liberal use of bOnedust, or any
standard grass fertilizer, you eau have a
nice looking lawn. Poultry manure
spread ,hinly over the lawn will give
good results, and its presence viii not
be noticeable. Wood ashes are strong
in potash, which vegetation needs.
| Poultry msnure and wood ashes ap-
piled separately make strong fertilizers.
Apply the poultry manure first, and
after several rains have washed II into
the ground, apply thin covering oil
wood ashes.
Nov the lawn as often during the
summer "a necessity requires, and do
not allow weeds TO grow. They VIII
take the moisture and fertility from the
soil That is needed for the grass. Con-
tinue 10 destroy them throughout the
entire season; IL left 10 go 10 seed they
will increase and give double the trouble
next year.
To destroy burdocks, cut of the
plant close TO the gronrd and pour a
few drops of kerosene into the heart OF
the plant. An Inferior grade OF kero-
sene NAV be used. A convenient way
10 apply il is to pour it from kerosene
can. We have found this remedy SO
efiectual that we can confidently recon-
mend It.
A certain and speedy remedy for
plantain and dandelions, is TO wind
few thicknesses Of cloth around the end
Of stick, dip ii in oil of vitriol, and
with il touch the heart OF the plants.
A reliable exchange gives the follow
ing method to get rid Of stumps. Bore
a two-inch hole eighteen inches deep
into the stumb; fill it with saltpetre and
plug up 10 keep out the rain. Do this
in the fall. and by spring it will have
permeated every part. Then fill the
hole with Kerosene, set on fire, and the
whole stump will be consumed.

POST OFFICE SECRECY.

IL l. not generally known that Uncle
sam looks upon the address or where
abouts OF one of his citizens "a an In
ylolable secret. Such, however, Is the
case.
4 New Yorker who had been out OF
the city for some time found upon his
return, few days ago, that one OF his
intimate friends had changed his resi-
dcnce without leaving his exact new
address. All he could gather was that
his friend now lived In Hat on the
north side Of certain street.
When he arrived az the block In ques-
ton he found to his dlsmay that every
house In IL was fiat house. He would
have to 90 from door 10 door until he
found his friends name over Que OF the
bells.
He had not proceeded far when he
met letter-carrier making his usual
delivery. Here, he thought, was the
man who could save him lot OF time
sud trouble.
AYES. sir" replied the postman, In re-
spouse to his inquiry, II know the party
very well. But am sorry to say can
not give you his number. IL Is against
the rules"
The same secrecy Is observed at the
post office. The postal address Of any
body will not be given by the federal
authorities even to a state officer. This
rule Il In accordance with the general
principle that mans dealings with the
government are OF confidential nature.

hpQIi NOTES

April is the month in which the foun.
dations Of ones future success in the
garden are laid. There is no truth in
the foolish old saying that "a bad be.
ginning makes good ending" \ bad
beginning in the flower garden will make
bad ending. as you will find 10 your
disappointment and regret.
You will want to do great deal OF
clearing up and cleaning up this
month. More or less rubbish accumu-
lates on ones lawn even in the winter
time. Get the rake aud the hoe out
early and keep them out.
Begin operations by putting your
sweet peas into the ground soon after
reading this. They can be planted the
first week 10 April in any climate in our
country. A furry of snow or light
freeze will not harm them in the least.
Portulaca ia tiny seed with great
vitality stored away in its tiny, shining
shell. There will be sure to be many
plants come up of their own accord from
self-sown seeds II you had this flower in
your garden last year. Ii is, by the
way, a very pretty and snowy flower for
some situations, and it requires but little
cultivation.
This is good time to SOW seeds Of
the nasturtium in pots for few early
flowers, and one can safely sow poppy
seeds out of doors the last of April.
There is wonderful degree Of vitality
in the tiny seeds of the poppy.

Writing In the cuur;!y style common a

1t is generally conceded there is moth

eaten them, but little care will prevent
